Effectiveness of Carbon Dioxide Cryotherapy for the Treatment of Localized Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in Ethiopia

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a public health problem in Ethiopia. Diagnosis is often delayed, and treatment options are limited. Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy is a recommended treatment but not widely available. Carbon dioxide (CO2) cryotherapy is used for the prevention of cervical cancer and is widely available in Ethiopia and ...

Small‐scale thermal habitat variability may not determine seagrass resilience to climate change

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Seagrass ecosystems are integral components of coastal marine environments, but they face global threats from climate change. The ability of seagrass to withstand these challenges depends on trait variation among individuals, which is influenced by genetic background and plasticity.

The role of surface water waves on cyanobacterial blooms in lakes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract The biophysical processes by which wind‐driven surface waves influence cyanobacterial bloom formation, transport, aerosolization, and termination in lakes represent a major knowledge gap in our understanding of bloom dynamics. We synthesized the literature that examined how waves interact with cyanobacterial bloom processes including ...
