Association of uterine leiomyoma with type 2 diabetes mellitus in young women: a population-based cohort study
Authors: Park Cheol-Young , Sung Ji-Hee , Kim Kyung-Soo , Han Kyungdo
Published: May 2023

Objective: To evaluate the association between uterine
leiomyoma (UL) and development of type 2 diabetes mellitus in young
women using a nationwide database. Design: Nationwide
population-based cohort study Setting: South Korea.
Population or Sample: Women aged between 20 and 40 years at
baseline who underwent at least one health checkup between 2009 and 2012
and followed until December 31, 2018 Methods: We excluded those
who were previously diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (n =
28,136), those diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus within the first
year of entry (n = 1,607), those who had hysterectomy during the study
period (n = 18,485), and those with missing data (n = 166,012). Cox
proportional hazards models were used to analyze the risk of developing
type 2 diabetes according to the presence of UL. Main outcome
Measures: Incidence of the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus
according to the presence of UL Results: 2,755,790 women were
selected and he mean age of the enrolled population was 29.70 y, and
mean body mass index was 21.31 kg/m . Among 2,541,550
participants, 18,375 (0.72%) women had UL. Over a median 7.45 years of
follow-up, 23,829 women (0.94%) were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
The incidence of type 2 diabetes in women with UL (1.805/1,000
person-years) was higher than in those without UL (1.289/1000
person-years). In the multivariable-adjusted model, the hazard ratio for
type 2 diabetes in women with UL was 1.216 (95% confidence interval
[CI] 1.071-1.382), as compared to those without UL. Compared to
women without UL, women with UL who did not undergo myomectomy had a
risk 1.328 times (95% CI 1.143-1.542) higher for developing type 2
diabetes. Interestingly, women with UL who underwent myomectomy had no
increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Conclusions:
This study found that young women with UL are more likely to develop
type 2 diabetes than those without UL. In addition, myomectomy seemed to
attenuate the risk for developing type 2 diabetes in young women with
UL.

Authors: Kuutti Mari , Hyvärinen Matti , Lankila Hannamari , Aukee Pauliina , Hietavala Enni-Maria , Laakkonen Eija
Published: May 2023

Objective To investigate associations of eating behaviour with
symptoms of pelvic floor disorders (PFD), i.e., stress urinary
incontinence (SUI), urge urinary incontinence (UUI), faecal incontinence
(FI), constipation or defecation difficulties (CDD), and feeling of
pelvic organ prolapse (POP) among middle-aged women. Design A
cross-sectional, observational study. Setting University
Research Laboratory. Sample A population sample of 1 098
Finnish women aged 47 to 55 years. Methods Eating behaviour,
demographical, gynaecological, and physical activity variables were
assessed using self-report questionnaires. Simple and multiple logistic
regression models were used to assess the associations of eating
behaviour and symptoms of PFD. Models were adjusted with demographical,
gynaecological, and physical activity variables. Main outcome
measures Prevalence of symptoms of CDD, FI, POP, SUI, UUI.
Results After controlling for confounding, middle-aged women
with restrictive eating style were more likely to experience the
symptoms of CDD (OR 1.73, CI 1.03–2.90, p=0.039). Women with
evening-oriented eating pattern were more likely to experience symptoms
of UUI (OR 2.01, CI 1.32–3.07, p=0.001) while maintaining healthy
eating patterns was associated with lower risk of UUI (OR 0.45, CI
0.24–0.85, p=0.014) in adjusted models. Conclusions This study
provides proof-of-concept evidence to the hypothesis that eating
behaviour is associated with perceived pelvic floor disorders,
particularly CDD and UUI, warranting further studies to investigate
causality.
Local bats diversity exceeded the regional bats diversity in Xinjiang, China
Authors: Dong Pei-Pei , Gao Wen-Jia , Wang Rui-Rui , Abduriyim Shamshidin
Published: May 2023

Echolocation acoustic signature identification is an ideal non-invasive
field survey method for chiropteran diversity. Located in the far
easternmost region of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region where covers
one sixth of China’s land territory, Komul city includes a variety of
landscapes, including typical mountains, plateaus, plains, and the Gobi
Desert, which is home to a number of terrestrial animals. By gathering
bat echo sound waves between July and September 2022 and during April
2023, we investigated bat species diversity in Komul, Xinjiang, China.
As a result, we identified a total of 24 species of bats belonging to
two families and ten genera, of which Myotis is the dominant
genus with seven species, followed by Pipistrellus with four
species, and both Eptesicus and Nyctalus come after with
three species. 16 of these species are novel to Xinjiang. The
altitudinal distribution of these species is 500m to 2200m above sea
level, and their horizontal distribution includes most of the surveyed
region, e.g., Barkol Kazakh Autonomous County, Arturk County, and
Ivirghul District. From a conservation perspective, three species
(Miniopterus schreibersii、Myotis capaccinii and
Nyctalus lasiopterus) and two species (Barbastella
barbatellus and Myotis dasycneme) are listed as “vulnerable”
and “near threatened” in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species,
respectively. Rest of which are of least concern. Our findings provide a
valuable reference for future ecological, genetic, and conservational
studies of bats in China, especially in Xinjiang.
How temperature shapes the biosynthesis of PHAs in mixed microbial cultures
Authors: Palmeiro-Sánchez Tania , Graham Alison , Lens Piet , O'Flaherty Vincent
Published: May 2023

Three sequential batch reactors were operated for the enrichment in
microbial communities able to store polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) using
activated sludge as inoculum. They ran simultaneously under the same
operational conditions (organic loading rate, hydraulic and solids
retention time, cycle length, C/N ratio) just with the solely difference
of the working temperature: psychrophilic (15°C); mesophilic (30°C); and
thermophilic (48°C). The microbial communities enriched showed different
behaviours in terms of consumption and production rates. In terms of PHA
accumulation, the psychrophilic community was able to accumulate an
average amount of 17.7 ± 5.7 wt%
poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV); the mesophilic 40.3
± 7.0 wt% PHBV, and the thermophilic 14.8 ± 0.3 wt% PHBV in dry weight
over total solids. The average PHBV production yields for each selected
community were 0.41 ± 0.12 Cmmol /Cmmol
at 15°C, 0.64 ± 0.05 Cmmol
/Cmmol at 30°C, and 0.39 ± 0.14
Cmmol /Cmmol at 48°C. The
overall performance of the mesophilic reactor was better than the other
two, and the copolymers obtained at this temperature contained a higher
PHV fraction. The physico-chemical properties of the obtained
biopolymers at each temperature were also measured and major differences
were found in the molecular weight, following an increasing trend with
temperature.

Visszatérő hólyaghurutról akkor beszélünk, ha a húgyúti fertőzés hat hónap alatt két alkalommal, vagy egy év alatt háromszor ismétlődik. A visszatérő húgyúti fertőzések megelőzésében egyre nagyobb teret kap a nem antibiotikum-alapú terápia, az immunoaktív módszerek alkalmazása, amelyek közül a legerősebb (I. A) ajánlással az Uro-Vaxom liofilizált Escherichia coli baktériumlizátumot tartalmazó készítménye (OM-89) rendelkezik. Az Uro-Vaxom komplex hatása révén nemcsak az E. colival szemben, hanem más Gram-negatív uropatogénnel szemben is képes védelmet nyújtani.

Bevezetés: A szerzők egy ritka entitásnak számító, a prosztatát érintő lymphomás megbetegedés esetét mutatják be. Esetismertetés: A 78 éves férfi betegünk anamnézisében egyéb betegségei mellett thalassemia és B-sejtes krónikus lymphocytás leukémia szerepel, ami miatt hematológián aktív surveillance alatt állt évek óta. LUTS-os (lower urinary tract symptoms) panaszok miatt indult kivizsgálás során alsó húgyúti obstrukció igazolódott. A prosztata transurethralis reszekcióját végeztük el. A szövettani vizsgálat krónikus prostatitist igazolt. Műtétet követően 12 hónappal a prosztataspecifikus-antigén (PSA) értéke 6,42 ng/ml volt. 3 hónap múlva a PSA 14,55 ng/ml-re növekedett. Rektális digitális vizsgálat kórosat nem jelzett. Kismedence mágnesesrezonancia- (MR) vizsgálat történt, amely mindkét prosztata lebenyében perifériásan malignitásra utaló terüle- teket véleményezett. A kép alapján mieloproliferatív kórkép lehetősége merült fel. Tekintettel az emelkedő PSA-értékre és az MR-vizsgálat eredményére, ultrahang-vezérelt prosztatabiopsziát végeztünk. A szövettani és immunhisztokémiai vizsgálat indolens B-sejtes lymphomát igazolt a prosztatában. Tekintettel a vérképben, a státuszában és képalkotókban együttesen jelentkező progresszióra, a hematológián aktív kezelésre váltottak. Kezelést követően teljes remissziót értek el. A kontroll PSA 2020-ban 7,94 ng/ml, 2021-ben 7,54 ng/ml, 2022-ben 7,05 ng/ml volt. A beteget mai napig rendszeresen gondozza urológiai és hematológiai szakrendelés.
Culture at the Core in Leadership Learning and Development: Experiences from Western Kenya
Authors: Gutwa Oino Peter
Published: May 2023

Leadership in Africa remains an elusive and contested phenomenon on which general agreement is highly unlikely. Despite this understanding, few studies have taken into account the possible cultural influences on leadership styles, the differences in leadership approach that are practiced, and how generalizable they can be in national and continental development. The aim of this paper is to examine how culture is core in influencing western Kenya leadership for national and continental development. The study utilized Complexity System Leadership Theory, which confirmed that leadership is a system function that operates to change the rules of interaction among people or groups within a complex adaptive system of interactions, both in terms of ends- where the system is going; and means- how to get there. The study used descriptive and cross-sectional designs and relied on a mixed methods approach. The target population was two cultural groups of western Kenya (the Luhya and the Abagusii, found in two administrative Counties of Kakamega and Kisii in Kenya. A sample size of 361 respondents from the general population, 25 Key informants, 16 focus group discussions and 25 direct observations were used to generate data. Methods of data collection included: Questionnaire, Key Informant Interviews, Focus Group Discussions and Observation checklist. Quantitative data was analyzed descriptively and using inferential statistics with the aid of SPSS software. Qualitative data was analyzed by content analysis and constant comparative meaning oriented analysis using thematic means. Quantitative and qualitative data were presented in a mixed way that reinforces each other. The study found that cultural values, beliefs and expectations influence how leaders are identified, chosen, developed and the leadership styles they adopt. Traditional leaders are also regarded as both County and National leaders especially by Abagusii people in Kisii County.

Published: May 2023

Las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) constituyen uno de los elementos centrales de la sociedad actual. Su desarrollo y expansión han posibilitado la emergencia de nuevas formas de comunicación, particularmente a través de las redes sociales digitales. Este artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación cuyo propósito fue conocer el uso que jóvenes estudiantes de preparatoria de la ciudad de Tijuana, México, hacen de la red social TikTok, al mismo tiempo que se procuró explorar la influencia que esta plataforma tiene en su vida cotidiana. Para ello, se recurrió a un enfoque metodológico cualitativo mediante la utilización de la técnica del grupo focal y la entrevista semiestructurada, con la finalidad de generar un acercamiento que permitiera conocer, desde el punto de vista de los propios adolescentes, las razones de uso de esa red social digital, los contenidos que consumen y su impacto. Los resultados indican que, a partir de sus características tecnológicas, esta red social cumple como principal función la de entretenimiento, la cual se entrelaza con procesos de aprendizaje informal en la cultura digital de los jóvenes y una influencia en los procesos de socialización.
Análisis del desempeño en pruebas estandarizadas de egreso de una carrera de educación
Authors: López Gamboa Galo Emanuel , Baeza Aldana Silvia Alejandra
Published: May 2023

Las pruebas estandarizadas son una forma de medición de las competencias de los egresados de diferentes carreras en todo el país y proporcionan retroalimentación al plan de estudios, así como información sobre el desempeño de los sustentantes. El presente análisis tuvo como objetivo comparar los principales resultados en cada una de las áreas que comprende este examen de egreso, así como otras variables contextuales como sexo, modelo educativo y campus. Para ello, se llevó a cabo una recolección documental a partir de los datos obtenidos de los egresados de una licenciatura en Educación que presentaron el Examen General de Egreso de Licenciatura (EGEL) entre los años 2019-2021. Entre los principales resultados, no se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las variables de Modelo Educativo ni cohorte; sin embargo, sí las hubo entre sexo, así como entre las áreas que examina el examen. Por lo anterior, es preciso fortalecer las áreas en las que se encontraron diferencias entre los sustentantes tanto en la revisión de contenidos de las asignaturas, así como en las estrategias y metodologías de enseñanza y de aprendizaje a lo largo de sus trayectorias formativas; esto conduce a su vez a repensar en modificaciones de mayor alcance al plan de estudios.
On a Middle Jurassic phylloceratid ammonite from the Bakony Mts (Hungary)
Authors: Galácz András
Published: May 2023

Unknown fossil collections from the Bakony Mts, collected by J. Nosky Jnr. during his mapping activity in the 1940s and 1950s were found in the storage facility of the Hungarian Geological Institute in the 2010s. In these materials from the Upper Bajocian (Middle Jurassic) from the Som-hegy of Bakonybél (formerly known as part of Pénzeskút) some specimens were determined by Nosky  in 1959 as ‘Canaliphylloceras’ nov. gen. nov. sp.’ However, Nosky never published these faunal studies, and his designations have only been preserved as notes written on the labels of the specimens. The same form identified by Nosky was also identified as a new species from Gyenespuszta, another Middle Jurassic locality in the Bakony Mountains, in 1980 with the name Adabofoloceras hajagensen. sp. Galácz, 1980. The name suggested by Noszky is invalid; however, his distinction of these forms as representing an individual taxon is justified. This contribution is a tribute to Jenő Nosky, a great researcher of the Hungarian Jurassic by making his faunistic study known and showing his original specimens.

Újlipótváros–Angyalföld: kiemelkedő geotermikus anomáliák és tektonikai értelmezésük hőszivattyús szondatesztadatok alapján
Authors: Lorberer Árpád
Published: May 2023

Városaink földtani felépítéséről a legtöbb új földtani információt a nagy számban készülő, jellemzően 100–150 méter mély, geotermikus hőszivattyús fúrások alapján kaphatnánk. Sajnos ez többnyire csak elvi lehetőség, még a nagy méretű beruházások többségénél is csak a kőzethőmérsékleti adatok mérésére kerül sor. Anyagunkban az ilyen fúrásmezők tervezéséhez készülő termikus tesztelések hőmérséklet-alapállapot adatait gyűjtöttük össze és értékeltük a főváros XIII. kerületének a térségéből.

Újlipótváros alatt intenzív, felszínközeli, pozitív hőmérsékleti anomáliát mutattunk ki. A Váci út és a Dózsa György út sarkánál 120 m mélységben mért 66 °C kőzethőmérséklet Magyarország legmagasabb (forrásoktól független) geotermális gradiensét eredményezi.

A vizsgált területen ismert és korábban feltételezett tektonikai elemekkel nem volt magyarázható a jelenség. A hőmérsékletadatok alapján új tektonikus elemeket kell feltételezni. Értelmezésünk szerint a XIII. kerület két része, Újlipótváros és Angyalföld között éles tektonikai határ rajzolódik ki, amely a Budai Termális Vonal teljes vetőzónáját is érintheti. Adataink alapján a BTV fővetőjének a lefutása módosul, és a hozzá kapcsolódó hévízmegcsapolási terület is a folyómedernél jóval szélesebb zónára terjedhet ki. Továbbá Újlipótváros alatt egy eddig ismeretlen, a felszín közelébe felnyúló alap hegységi kiemelkedést valószínűsítünk. Ebből a kiaknázatlan földtani szerkezetből közvetlen fűtésre alkalmas hévíz lehet beszerezhető már 100–300 m mélységből.

A XIII. kerület északi felén, 30–90 méter között miocén üledékekben az előzővel ellentétes, negatív geotermikus anomália rajzolódik ki, ugyanis a kőzethőmérséklet a felszínközeli értékhez képest több fokkal alacsonyabb. Ez a jelenség több egymástól távolabb eső fúrásban, eltérő időben, eltérő műszerekkel vizsgálva is észlelhető volt. Véleményünk szerint ez a negatív anomália mesterséges eredetű, értelmezésére három teóriát állítottunk fel. Az első a városi jéggyár aktív hűtését tételezi fel, a másik kettő a felsőbb rétegek felfűtöttségéből eredezteti a mélység felé csökkenő hőfokokat.

Az adatok feldolgozása során nyert tapasztalatok alapján javaslatokat fogalmaztunk meg a jövőbeni geotermikusszonda-tesztelési jegyzőkönyvek tartalmának a pontosítására, a fúrási eredmények archiválására és a mély fűtési és a sekély hőszivattyús hűtési és fűtési célú építőipari projektek összehangolására.

The article analyzes the possibility of using the analytical method for forecasting the bearing capacity of piles in a bilinear formulation for prefabricated piles. The pile bearing capacity forecasting method in a bilinear formulation is an alternative pile bearing capacity forecasting technique that allows obtaining a load-settlement graph for a single pile, which makes it possible to forecast the pile bearing capacity in an analytical formulation. There were carried out 12 full-scale tests of bored piles and 19 factory-made piles for static indentation load. For each test, there was performed a numerical simulation of pile testing for a static indentation load and an analytical calculation of the bearing capacity of the pile in a bilinear formulation. The results of the analytical calculation are compared with the results of field tests of piles and the results of numerical simulation. Based on a comparison of calculated and experimental data, conclusions have been made about the possibility of using an analytical calculation of the bearing capacity of piles in a bilinear formulation.
Dispersed poly-reinforced concrete for the mountain roads of Afghanistan
Authors:   Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Eshanzada Said Mujtaba
Published: May 2023

The article deals with the issues of improving the quality and durability of highways. These issues are relevant for the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan., especially in hard-to-reach conditions of high mountains, where every year there is an increase in requirements for durability, reliability and serviceability of road surfaces. The satisfaction of these requirements is facilitated by the increasingly widespread use of fiber reinforced concrete reinforced with various types of dispersed reinforcement, both metallic and non-metallic fibers, having improved characteristics. As a result of the research, it has been established that the simultaneous use of steel and synthetic fiber in case of dispersed poly-reinforcement leads to an improvement in the physical and mechanical characteristics of heavy concrete and opens up serious prospects for its use as a structural material for road construction in hard-to-reach areas of the highlands of the Republic of Afghanistan.

Published: May 2023

This study is an attempt to make a comparative study between Arabic and English regarding color idioms. It tends to make a comparison by shedding light on similarities between Arabic and English regarding Color idioms. Eighteen color idioms have been chosen; ten from English and nine from Arabic. Each idiom has been analyzed literally (dictionary meaning) and non-literally (figurative meaning).  The analysis has displayed that both languages share some common connotations and literal meanings for a number of idioms.  It has showed some differences as well.  It can be drawn that although these languages are aliens, descending from two various origins, yet they share some meanings. Besides, the analysis has explored that some idioms might have more than one meaning depending on the context.  As a last point, the meaning of these color idioms may differ according to culture, language, customs and traditions, religion, and situations.

Published: May 2023

Coccidiosis, a protozoal disease caused by a species of the Eimeria genus, causes tremendous economic damage to the poultry industry. Numerous natural remedies have been developed to combat emerging drug-resistant Eimeria species and mitigate public concerns about anticoccidial drug residues in poultry products. In the current study, the anticoccidial efficacy was evaluated of a commercial mixed botanical product, administered in two concentrations, in the treatment and control of a mixed coccidian infection. In this respect, 120 newly hatched broiler chickens were randomly allocated into five equal groups: Cox500, Cox1000, Positive control (PC), Negative control (NC), and Control (C). The first three groups were exposed to oocysts of several Eimeria species, Cox500 and Cox1000, and then received the two concentrations of a botanical blend (500 and 1,000 ml of formula per 1,000 L of drinking water, respectively) for five consecutive days. The positive control also received toltrazuril (7 mg/kg of live weight) through drinking water for two consecutive days. The negative control and control were the challenged-unmedicated and unchallenged-unmedicated groups, respectively. The chicks were monitored for clinical signs, intestinal lesions, performance indices, and oocyst shedding. The results indicated that the tested botanical formula in both concentrations improved the growth performance of the birds. However, the higher concentration prompted lower oocyst shedding and, likewise, toltrazuril in the positive control, healed cecal lesions more rapidly. In summary, the blended botanical formula, particularly in the higher concentration (1,000 ml per 1,000 L of drinking water), could successfully be incorporated into therapeutic strategies against coccidiosis in broiler flocks.

Authors:   Erciyes University, Institute of Health Science, Department of Veterinary Pharmacology and Toxicology, Kayseri, Turkey, Bhoye Sow Mamadou , Eraslan Gökhan
Published: May 2023

The aim of this study was to determine the toxicokinetic profile of orally and intraperitoneally administered prallethrin, which is frequently used as an environmental health drug. For this purpose, prallethrin was administered to 42 female 2-3-month-old BALB/c mice, each weighing 35-40 grams, at a dose of 2 mg/kg bw by intraperitoneal and oral route. The mice were randomly assigned to two groups, each of 21 animals. While Group 1 was administered 2 mg/kg bw prallethrin in dimethyl sulfoxide by intraperitoneal route, Group 2 received a single oral dose of 2 mg/ kg bw prallethrin in dimethyl sulfoxide. After the intraperitoneal and oral administration of prallethrin, intra-cardiac blood was drawn into heparinized tubes at certain periods. Plasma prallethrin concentrations were measured by gas chromatography using a micro-electron capture detector. The distribution profile was found to be consistent with the two-compartment open model. The plasma maximum concentration (Cmax), time to reach maximum concentration (tmax), half-life (t1/2β), mean residence time (MRT), area under the curve (AUC0→∞) and bioavailability (F) values for orally administered prallethrin were 3.66±0.78 ng/ml, 0.60±0.05 h, 10.20±1.24 h, 11.72±1.51 h, 15.19±4.43 ng/h. ml and 39.86%, respectively. For intraperitoneally administered prallethrin, the t1/2β, MRT and AUC0→∞ values were calculated as 7.46±0.54 h, 8.05±0.64 h and 38.10±5.80 ng/h.ml, respectively. The data obtained indicates that the oral bioavailability of prallethrin is lower than that of many other pyrethroids such as flumethrin and cypermethrin. Compared to some other pesticides in the same group, such as phenothrin, the half-life and mean residence time of prallethrin in the body are not short, when administered by both routes. The results obtained suggest that exposure to high doses of prallethrin may pose a risk of poisoning. In view of the toxicokinetic parameters determined, this study points out to the need for further studies to better understand the toxicity of prallethrin in mammals.

Published: May 2023

Foot diseases are among the top three causes of economic loss in dairy cattle. Recent studies show that oxidative stress plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of foot diseases. There is no study determining the dynamic thiol-disulfide levels in dairy cattle with foot disease. This study aimed to determine dynamic thiol-disulfide levels in foot diseased and healthy dairy cattle. Demographic information about the animals, and clinical findings of foot diseases and lameness were presented. In the Foot Disease Group, native thiol (P<0.01), total thiol (P<0.05), disulfide (P<0.01), disulfide/native thiol (P<0.01) and disulfide/total thiol (P<0.01) results were found to be significantly higher than in the Control Group. Native thiol/total thiol (P<0.01) was found to be significantly higher in the Control Group than in the Foot Disease Group. As a result, statistically significant increases in thiol-disulfide levels were determined in foot diseased dairy cattle. It was shown that the thiol-disulfide balance was impaired. This study is the first to determine thiol-disulfide levels and thus changes in thiol-disulfide homeostasis in healthy and foot diseased dairy cattle. With further studies, oxidative stress changes that occur as a result of foot diseases can be better understood and the use of antioxidants as a part of treatment evaluated.

Published: May 2023

La correcta gestión energética de las fuentes de propulsión y almacenamiento de un vehículo eléctrico híbrido permite disminuir el uso de combustible, operar en forma más eficiente y aumentar el tiempo de vida de los componentes. En el presente artículo se estudian diversas técnicas de control para un vehículo híbrido con motor de hidrógeno como fuente de generación principal; y  baterías/supercapacitores como fuentes combinadas de almacenamiento. Se hace una comparación de técnicas predictivas con la técnica de programación dinámica. Se estudian además distintos tipos de perfiles de velocidad para generalizar los resultados. Se concluye que el controlador predictivo económico y el controlador predictivo económico robusto permiten gestionar de manera eficiente el uso de los elementos de almacenamiento mediante el frenado regenerativo  y alcanzar los perfiles de conducción con una reducción del consumo de combustible, operando por consiguiente la pila de combustible en sus mayores puntos de eficiencia.
