Ear Piercing Complications: Comparing Cartilage and Soft Tissue Piercings in a Large Survey Cohort

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Cartilage ear piercings were associated with significantly higher complication rates than lobule piercings and remained an independent predictor of complications after multivariate analysis. Cartilage site also independently predicted piercing removal, with higher removal rates observed compared to lobule piercings.

The Impact of Climate Change on Soil Erosion Rates in the Chernozem Zone of Ukraine

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil degradation driven by accelerated water erosion threatens global food security. Quantitative estimates of soil erosion losses allow at‐risk areas to be identified and the success of soil management plans to be monitored. However, estimating soil erosion losses under changing climatic conditions is challenging, particularly at the scales ...

Water Table Decline Shifts Microbial Necromass From Particulate to Mineral‐Associated Pools in Peatlands

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) is a major and stable component of soil organic carbon, yet its fraction‐specific accumulation and stabilization mechanisms remain unclear, particularly in peatlands experiencing hydrological change. We investigated MNC distribution along three independent transects spanning a natural gradient of five ...

Coupled Environmental Effects in Competitive Inhibition of Dynamic Hydrazone Hydrogels

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Environment Alters Competitive Inhibition of Crosslinks. Ion concentration, pH, and buffer composition govern exchange kinetics and network stability in dynamic benzyl‐hydrazone hydrogels. These factors are particularly important when utilizing small‐molecule competitors for enhanced control over gel mechanics, underscoring the need to control the ...

Interdiction Models and Heuristics for Graph Propagation

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given a graph G=(V,E)$$ G=\left(V,E\right) $$ and a set S⊂V$$ S\subset V $$ of activated/infected nodes, we consider the problem of determining the set of c$$ c $$ nodes that minimizes the network propagation on the subgraph that results from the removal of those c$$ c $$ nodes. To measure network propagation, we assume that a node i$$ i $$ is
