Enhancing Reliable Irrigation–Water Supply in Poverty‐Ridden and Drought‐Prone Areas: Pre‐2017 Baseline Evidence From the Tawona Irrigation Scheme, Zimbabwe

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates farmers' willingness to pay for a reliable irrigation water supply in Zimbabwe's Tawona irrigation scheme, where intermittent water supply caused by funding shortages threatens irrigation sustainability. Using contingent valuation and logit regression analysis, data were collected from 313 farmers during the 2016/2017 ...

Comparison of Cranial Ultrasound and Amplitude‐Integrated Electroencephalography in Predicting Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in Neonates With Hypoxic–Ischemic Encephalopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
In neonates with hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes (NDO) remain common. Amplitude‐integrated EEG demonstrates strong prognostic value for early prediction, while cranial ultrasound (cUS) provides complementary but less definitive information.

Shared genetics between ADHD and reading/language abilities: Genome‐wide correlations, stratified enrichment, cross‐trait association, and mendelian randomization

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and language/reading difficulties frequently co‐occur. The extent of shared genetic architecture remains incompletely defined. We investigated genome‐wide overlap between ADHD and four core skills: word reading, nonword reading, spelling, and phoneme awareness.

Intravenous lipid emulsions with or without fish oil for the prevention of liver disease in VLBW neonates: A network meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parenteral nutrition–associated liver disease is a severe complication in very low birth weight (≤1500 g) preterm neonates. Although previous pairwise meta‐analyses have compared individual intravenous lipid emulsions, their relative efficacy across all available formulations has not been established in this population.

Biomaterials for resolution of peri‐implantitis: Consensus report of Workgroup 2 of the IADR Implantology Research Group Best Evidence Consensus Symposium on Peri‐Implant Disease and Its Treatment

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a destructive disease affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants. Biomaterials may be applied during surgical treatment to reconstruct bony defects and support soft tissue healing. However, current evidence is unclear if these treatments increase the likelihood of peri‐implantitis resolution.

Periodontitis and breast cancer risk: A systematic review with meta‐epidemiological analysis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The association between periodontitis and breast cancer (BC) risk has been reported, but with considerable variability in effect estimates across studies. This meta‐epidemiological study aimed to systematically evaluate how methodological characteristics of primary studies influence these reported effect estimates.
