Soft‐tissue volume augmentation during early, delayed, and late dental implant therapy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis on professionally determined esthetics and self‐reported patient satisfaction on esthetics

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of the study was to assess the effect of soft‐tissue volume augmentation during early, delayed, and late dental implant therapy in terms of professionally determined esthetics and self‐reported patient satisfaction on esthetics. For this, a comprehensive electronic literature search was performed to identify randomized clinical ...

Farm‐Scale Recharge Pits for Improving Local Groundwater Availability: Insights From a Hardrock Watershed in Rajasthan, India

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundwater depletion is a major challenge in semiarid, hard‐rock regions where irrigation demands often exceed natural recharge. This study evaluates the effectiveness of farm‐scale recharge pits as a local, supplementary, and community‐managed groundwater recharge solution in the Dharta catchment of Rajasthan, India. Alongside check dams and

Wood anatomical trait correlations with hydraulic efficiency and safety in an aseasonal wet tropical forest

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 2701-2717, August 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Xylem anatomy underpins the capacity of trees to transport water while avoiding hydraulic failure, shaping species performance and resilience to climate change. However, the specific ways anatomical traits underpin hydraulic trade‐offs in tropical forests remain debated.

Perceived costs as drivers of wildlife management preferences in rural Tanzanian communities

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Effectively managing human–wildlife interactions is crucial for fostering coexistence on shared landscapes. Management options are most effective when aligned with the preferences of people directly affected by wildlife, yet little is known about how socioecological factors influence these preferences.

Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Assessing differences among elasmobranch nurseries to aid conservation based on a genomics framework

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Elasmobranch nurseries often differ in environmental conditions, demographics, and use patterns. These differences affect the distribution of genetic variation among nurseries. However, conservation and management strategies often fail to account for such differences because they are difficult to characterize.

Impact of Host and Food Availability on Life‐History Traits in Six Egg Parasitoid Species of the Genus Trichogramma

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 887-895, August 2026.
In this study we measured the impact of access to sugar and hosts on the longevity and fecundity of six Trichogramma species: T. cacoeciae, T. chilonis, T. minutum, T. leptoparameron, T. pintoi and T. sibericum. The impact of food differed among species, but there was a general tendency of increased life expectancy and potential fecundity with sugar ...
