Effect of Ergot-Contaminated Barley on GrowingFinishing Pig Performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Barley samples from Allamakee County were used in a swine feeding study. Pigs fed a barley-corn and soybean meal (SBM) diets containing up to 0.18% ergot (1.62 ppm ergot alkaloids) performed similarly to pigs fed a basal corn-SBM diet.

Predicting intrauterine vacuum‐induced postpartum hemorrhage‐control device treatment success

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Objective To identify predictors of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) treatment success with the JADA intrauterine vacuum‐induced hemorrhage‐control device in post‐market settings. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of PPH managed using the JADA system across 16 centers in the United States (NCT04995887). Treatment success was defined

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.
