Comparison of Haemoglobin Concentrations From Venous and From Finger‐Pricked Capillary Blood in a Region With a High Prevalence of Anaemia in Ethiopia

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This cross‐sectional study was conducted in the Somali Regional State in Ethiopia. The purpose of the study was to compare haemoglobin (Hb) concentrations from venous and finger‐pricked capillary blood using the HemoCue 301 as well as estimating anaemia prevalence. Participants were non‐pregnant women of reproductive age (WRA), 18–49 years old

Evidence for regulation of transpiration in nonstomatal plants: insights from bryophyte gametophytes

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Kinetics of cell wall water vapor potential (Ψcw) and resistance of cell wall and plasmatic membrane to water flux in response to cytoplasmic water potential (Ψcyt) during dehydration. Ψcyt was calculated from the WC at any moment of the dehydration curve by using the relationship between −1/Ψw and WC of pressure volume curves and assuming Ψw = Ψcyt ...
