Effects of adjustable‐volume transfemoral prosthetic sockets on balance and falls: A randomized clinical trial

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Adjustable‐volume prosthetic sockets have been developed to allow users to accommodate volume fluctuations throughout the day. Improvement in socket fit is thought to enhance the connection between the user's residual limb and prosthesis and may therefore improve postural control and balance.

Persistence of seed‐applied pesticides in soybeans: environmental influences and implications for crop protection

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Early soybean planting in cool, wet soils slows emergence and results in about half the insecticide and fungicide concentrations at vegetative emergence compared with standard planting, where faster emergence maintains roughly double the pesticide concentrations, yet pesticide persistence remains similar across both planting dates.
