15‐Point versus pass/fail grading in orthodontic education: A randomized controlled trial
Abstract Objectives There is a lack of evidence on whether a grading system or a pass/fail system influences manual skills in dental education. This parallel‐group randomized controlled trial aimed to assess the influence of a 15‐point grading system compared with a pass/fail evaluation on the quality of orthodontic appliances in dental education ...

Challenges in dating blanket peat and implications for understanding its initiation in Ireland
ABSTRACT Blanket peat is widespread in maritime extra‐tropical environments. Prehistoric land‐use activity was traditionally invoked as the stimulus of blanket peat initiation in the British Isles, but recently, climate has been viewed as the driver of peat formation.

Biodegradable Polymers for Plant Nutrient Delivery and Recovery
This review article discusses the use of biodegradable polymers to address several grand challenges in agriculture: to improve the delivery of nitrogen and phosphorous to crops, to optimize plant uptake, and to enhance the recovery of these nutrients from wastewater, to recycle them and reduce water pollution. Abstract The current use of fertilizers is

Photochromic gel nanocomposites with WO3 NPs have been prepared via photopolymerization. The photocurable resin consisting of WO3 NPs and acrylic monomers shows low viscosity and fast curation, allowing for light‐based 3D printing. The photochromic gels show high transparency in their bleached state and high absorbance in their colored state, allowing ...
