Primary succession in an Atlantic salt marsh: From intertidal flats to mid‐marsh platform in 35 years

Journal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 8, Page 2909-2921, August 2021., 2021
Facilitation plays a central role in saltmarsh development in this study of primary succession. We chronicle changes in the sedimentary environment, geomorphology and plant colonisation over 35 years, as intertidal flats were transformed into a mid‐marsh platform.

Geography of roadkills within the Tropical Andes Biodiversity Hotspot: Poorly known vertebrates are part of the toll

Biotropica, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 820-830, May 2021., 2021
We analyzed wildlife roadkill patterns along a road network between tree protected areas in the Andes of Ecuador. Roadkills included poorly known small and endemic vertebrates, such as caecilians (Gymnophiona) and fossorial snakes (Atractus spp.). Most roadkills occurred in areas where roads crossed pasturelands adjacent to natural habitat.

Consensus on definition and severity grading of lymphatic complications after kidney transplantation

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 7, Page 801-811, June 2020., 2020
A clear definition and severity grading for lymphatic complications after kidney transplantation is proposed based on the management strategy. The proposed definition and three‐level grading system are generally reasonable, not complicated, and easy to understand; they will allow standardization of results relating to lymphatic complications after ...

Transanal total mesorectal excision for locally advanced middle–low rectal cancers

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 268-273, April 2020., 2020

Topical moistening of mastectomy wounds with diluted tranexamic acid to reduce bleeding: randomized clinical trial

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 216-224, April 2020., 2020
Moistening surgical wounds with tranexamic acid 25 mg/ml before closure is a simple, low‐cost intervention that reduces bleeding by one‐third and may reduce risk of rebleeding. The effect is comparable to intravenous administration, with a reduced risk of systemic adverse events.
