Does Contract Farming Improve Diet Quality? The Case of Senegalese Smallholders

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The institution of contract farming has gained prominence in most developing countries owing to its numerous benefits. While several studies have already highlighted the welfare benefits of contract farming, very few have investigated the effects on diet quality, despite poor quality diets being a serious challenge in most parts of the ...

Development of a Scoring System to Predict the Treatment Success for Nonoperative Management of Peptic Ulcer Perforation: A Secondary Data Analysis of PPAP Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although surgical treatment is the primary measure for patients with perforated peptic ulcer (PPU), nonoperative management (NOM) has become a common alternative. However, risk score models predicting the success of NOM based on the analysis of a large number of patients remain scarce.

Hybrid rule‐based and optimization‐driven framework for the synthesis of end‐to‐end optimal pharmaceutical processes

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The modernization of pharmaceutical manufacturing is driving a shift from traditional batch processing to continuous alternatives. Synthesizing end‐to‐end optimal (E2EO) manufacturing routes is crucial for the pharmaceutical industry, especially when considering multiple operating modes—such as batch, continuous, or hybrid (containing both ...

Minimum reflux calculation for multicomponent distillation in multi‐feed, multi‐product columns: Algorithms and examples

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this work, we present the first algorithm for identifying the minimum reboiler vapor duty requirement for a general multi‐feed, multi‐product (MFMP) distillation column separating ideal multicomponent mixtures. This algorithm incorporates our recently developed shortcut model for MFMP columns.
