Effects of dopamine β-hydroxylase inhibition in pressure overload-induced right ventricular failure. [PDF]
Abstract Activation of the sympathetic nervous system is observed in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients. This study investigates whether inhibiting the conversion of dopamine into noradrenaline by dopamine β‐hydroxylase (DβH) inhibition with BIA 21‐5337 improved right ventricular (RV) function or remodeling in pressure overload‐induced RV failure.

Wheat and faba bean intercropping and cultivar impacts on morphology, disease, and yield
Abstract Modern agriculture relies heavily on synthetic fertilizer and pesticide inputs. Pressure is increasing to find alternatives that reduce such inputs. In comparison to monocultures, intercropping can reduce plant diseases and increase yield, thereby reducing inputs and maximizing land use efficiency.

The extreme 2016 wheat yield failure in France
Abstract France suffered, in 2016, the most extreme wheat yield decline in recent history, with some districts losing 55% yield. To attribute causes, we combined the largest coherent detailed wheat field experimental dataset with statistical and crop model techniques, climate information, and yield physiology.
