Abstract The European Union was hit by the financial crisis of 2008. The impact of this crisis, however, and the extent to which this has led to strengthening environmental, health and safety risk regulation in the EU remain open to debate. This article advances the discussion of the “ratcheting‐up” hypothesis by adding a new explanatory factor, namely

Prediction of pre‐eclampsia using maternal hemodynamic parameters at 12 + 0 to 15 + 6 weeks
ABSTRACT Objectives To compare the maternal hemodynamic profile at 12 + 0 to 15 + 6 weeks' gestation in women who subsequently developed pre‐eclampsia (PE) and those who did not, and to assess the screening performance of maternal hemodynamic parameters for PE in combination with the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) triple test, including maternal ...

Linking extinction risk to the economic and nutritional value of sharks in small‐scale fisheries
Abstract To achieve sustainable shark fisheries, it is key to understand not only the biological drivers and environmental consequences of overfishing, but also the social and economic drivers of fisher behavior. The extinction risk of sharks is highest in coastal tropical waters, where small‐scale fisheries are most prevalent.

ABSTRACT Objectives Our aim was to examine the prenatal profiles of pregnancies affected by an atypical chromosomal aberration, focusing on pathogenic copy‐number variants (pCNVs). We also wanted to quantify the performance of combined first‐trimester screening (cFTS) and a second‐trimester anomaly scan in detecting these aberrations. Finally, we aimed

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the association between varying degrees of abnormality in the Doppler uterine artery pulsatility index (UtA‐PI) and adverse perinatal outcome. Methods This was a prospective study of women with a singleton, non‐anomalous pregnancy in whom UtA‐PI was measured universally in midpregnancy and who gave birth in Oxford ...

Abstract Illegal poaching and overexploitation for the international pet trade are among the greatest threats to freshwater turtles in Southeast Asia. Expanding consumer research in China is crucial to filling knowledge gaps about the scale and structure of illegal trade and developing audience‐targeted and relevant interventions that may reduce demand

Digital inclusion and the internet of things: Convenience and the choice‐compulsion continuum
Abstract The internet of things (IoT) holds forth much promise and peril. IoT promises to increase efficiencies needed to solve wicked problems like climate change. However, IoT may also reinforce existing problems such as social inequalities long associated with the digital divide.

A standard approach for including climate change responses in IUCN Red List assessments
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List is a central tool for extinction risk monitoring and influences global biodiversity policy and action. But, to be effective, it is crucial that it consistently accounts for each driver of extinction.

Identifying predictors of translocation success in rare plant species
Abstract The fundamental goal of a rare plant translocation is to create self‐sustaining populations with the evolutionary resilience to persist in the long term. Yet, most plant translocation syntheses focus on a few factors influencing short‐term benchmarks of success (e.g., survival and reproduction).

医院获得性革兰阳性球菌血流感染病原菌分布及影响预后危险因素分析
目的研究住院患者革兰阳性球菌血流感染菌群分布以及影响患者预后的危险因素,为院内感染的防治提供临床资料。方法回顾性分析我院128例住院患者革兰阳性球菌血流感染情况,并根据预后分为生存组(96例)、死亡组(32例),回归分析影响预后的危险因素。结果 128株革兰阳性球菌菌群分布凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌58株,占45.3%;金黄色葡萄球菌21株,占16.4%;屎肠球菌15株,占11.7%;住院时间、机械通气、留置导尿管、长期透析、APACHEⅡ评分、免疫抑制剂、激素长期使用均为预后不良的独立危险因素,均有统计学意义(
