Tecma Talk Podcast Examines Mexican Industrial Real-Estate Market

Automotive industry growth fuels demand for industrial buildings.

2014-04-01

EL PASO, TX, April 01, 2014 (Press-News.org) The Tecma Group of Companies recently engaged Rafael McCadden, director of industrial and logistics, at Colliers International in Mexico City in a conversation on the topic of current trends in the Mexican industrial real-estate market.

The industry expert predicts that the Mexican industrial real-estate market will be a vibrant one over the course of the next five years. According to him, this will be driven, in large part, due to the impressive continuing expansion that is taking place in the Mexican automotive industry, particularly in the region of the country that is known as the "Bajio." This is an area that consists of the states that are in proximity to Mexico City that includes Aguascalientes, San Luis Potosi, Guanajuato and Queretaro.

During the discussion about the Mexican industrial real-estate market, Rafael McCadden observed that, "What's happening in the industry is that a lot of the tier one, tier two, and even tier three suppliers are moving in to do just-in-time sequencing for OEM plants. The new plants in the area are mostly Japanese in origin such as Nissan, Honda and Mazda. The last of which has a JV with Toyota, but also south of Mexico City there's a new Audi project is in the works."

Digital mammography reduces recall and biopsy rates

2014-04-01

OAK BROOK, Ill. – Population-based screening with full-field digital mammography (FFDM) is associated with lower recall and biopsy rates than screen film mammography (SFM), suggesting that FFDM may reduce the number of diagnostic workups and biopsies that do not lead to diagnosis of breast cancer, according to a new study published online in the journal Radiology. Previous population-based studies comparing the accuracy of SFM versus FFDM have reported conflicting results, and reported recall rates—or the rate at which women are called back for additional tests—have ...

For most adolescents, popularity increases the risk of getting bullied

2014-04-01

WASHINGTON, DC, March 26, 2014 — A new study suggests that for most adolescents, becoming more popular both increases their risk of getting bullied and worsens the negative consequences of being victimized. "Most people probably would not think that having a higher social status would increase the risk of being targeted, but with few exceptions, that's what we find," said the study's lead author Robert Faris, an associate professor of sociology at the University of California-Davis. "It's kind of a hidden pattern of victimization that is rooted in the competition for ...

Bullying happens to popular teens too

2014-04-01

A new University of California, Davis, study suggests that for most adolescents, becoming more popular both increases their risk of getting bullied and worsens the negative consequences of being victimized, perhaps because they feel they have "farther to fall." "In contrast to stereotypes of wallflowers as the sole targets of peer aggression, adolescents who are relatively popular are also at high risk of harassment, the invisible victims of school-based aggression," said Robert Faris, associate professor of sociology at UC Davis and co-author of the study. Females and ...

Bullying targets popular kids, not only those who are marginalized

2014-04-01

Bullying affects more than just isolated and marginalized students, according to sociologists. In fact, researchers have found that relatively popular students are targeted and may actually suffer more from a single act of social aggression. "We did find that students who are isolated do get bullied," said Diane Felmlee, professor of sociology, Penn State. "However, for most students, the likelihood of being targeted by aggressive acts increases as a student becomes more popular, with the exception of those at the very top." In a study of students and their friendship ...

Study looks at why vitamin D deficiency diagnoses surged

2014-04-01

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – April 1, 2014 – New research from Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center suggests that physicians are ordering vitamin D deficiency screening tests for preventive care purposes rather than after patients develop conditions caused by decreased bone density. For older patients, having a low vitamin D level is a condition that can cause weakening of bones, which can lead to fractures, and in children the deficiency can lead to rickets. The 2011 Institute of Medicine guidelines for vitamin D and calcium emphasize their importance in skeletal health and increased ...

Auger is also affiliated with the university's CHUM Superhospital Research Centre. The research team sought to identify, from June through ...

NSIDC, NASA say Arctic melt season lengthening, ocean rapidly warming

2014-04-01

The length of the melt season for Arctic sea ice is growing by several days each decade, and an earlier start to the melt season is allowing the Arctic Ocean to absorb enough additional solar radiation in some places to melt as much as four feet of the Arctic ice cap's thickness, according to a new study by National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) and NASA researchers. Arctic sea ice has been in sharp decline during the last four decades. The sea ice cover is shrinking and thinning, making scientists think an ice-free Arctic Ocean during the summer might be reached this ...
