An oasis of fertility on a barren island: Earthworms at Papadil, Isle of Rum [PDF]
The Isle of Rum, Inner Hebrides, has an impoverished earthworm fauna as the soils are generally acidic and nutrient-poor. Species associated with human habitation are found around deserted crofting settlements subjected to “clearances” in the mid-19th ...

ABSTRACT Apoptosis plays a critical role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and preventing pathological conditions. The accurate detection of apoptosis is crucial for both research and diagnostic pathology, yet conventional histological staining methods often lack the sensitivity to identify early apoptotic changes.

Primary Malignant Pulmonary Glomus Tumor: A Case Report and Literature Review
We report a case of primary malignant pulmonary glomus tumor. A mass in the upper lobe of the right lung, with multiple speckled calcifications. The enhanced scan showed uneven enhancement in the arterial phase and progressive enhancement in the venous phase. ABSTRACT Malignant glomus tumors originating from the lungs are relatively rare.

Goethite dissolution by acidophilic bacteria
Previous studies have reported the role of some species of acidophilic bacteria in accelerating the dissolution of goethite under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. This has relevance for environments impacted by acid mine drainage and for the potential bioleaching of limonitic laterite ores.
