Dorsal genital nerve stimulation with the UCon neurostimulator was found to be safe and feasible. A 4‐week period of home stimulation resulted in a reduction of fecal incontinence episodes, a decrease in strong urgency episodes, and an improvement in bowel‐related questionnaires.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Frozen Soil Hydrological Processes and Their Effects: A Review and Synthesis
Abstract Frozen soils, including seasonally frozen ground and permafrost, are rapidly changing under a warming climate, with cascading effects on water, energy, and carbon cycles. We synthesize recent advances in the physics, observation, and modeling of frozen‐soil hydrology, emphasizing freeze–thaw dynamics, infiltration regimes and preferential flow,

Geospatial Analysis of Population Exposure to Flooding in the Sudd Region, South Sudan
ABSTRACT The Sudd wetland in South Sudan extends over 90,000 km2. Large‐scale flood events in recent years (2019–2022) are said to have led to the displacement of an estimated 1.8 million people in total. However, these estimates are approximate and to date there has not been a systematic analysis of population exposure to flooding in the Sudd region ...

Timescale of open-reservoir evolution beneath the south Cleft segment, Juan de Fuca ridge
International audienceLavas erupted at the southern end of the intermediate Juan de Fuca ridge (Cleft segment) are mostly cogenetic and their chemical diversity results from melt evolution in an open magma system.

Examining the Effects of Exposure to Nature on Well-Being: Implications for College Campuses [PDF]
Humans attraction to the natural environment stems from our evolutionary tendencies. Biophilia is defined by E.O. Wilson as the “innate tendency to focus on life and lifelike processes (Wilson, 1984, p.

Wetlands provide essential landscape functions, retaining water and nutrients, supporting biodiversity, and sequestering carbon, but assessing these functions at large spatial scales remains challenging. This systematic review describes and evaluates currently available approaches to quantifying wetland function at landscape scales.

Summary Fine roots are critical for soil resource uptake, yet how declining plant diversity alters fine root biomass (RB) and traits remains unclear. We tested how plant functional trait dissimilarity in shade tolerance, drought tolerance, growth rate, and nitrogen‐fixation ability drives variation in root attributes.

From solutions of LiClO4 and crown ethers, three new salts with crown‐ether‐encapsulated Li+ cations and perchlorate anions are obtained. Their structures and thermal and conductivity data of one example are described. Extensive scientific research is currently carried out globally to improve the performance of rechargeable batteries based on lithium ...
