Nail Surgery in Children: Specific Challenges and Practical Considerations
ABSTRACT Nail surgery in children represents a specific field within dermatologic surgery. Although the procedures themselves are largely similar to those performed in adults, the indications, technical constraints, and perioperative management differ substantially. Pediatric nail disorders are often clinically recognizable, which frequently limits the

Moss Biocrusts Regulate Heavy Metal Speciation and Mobility in Coal Mine Soils
ABSTRACT On a global scale, coal mining activities often lead to heavy metal(loid) contamination in soils of mine dump sites, posing serious ecological risks. As ecosystem “engineers,” biological soil crusts (biocrusts)—especially moss crust—have shown great potential in remediating heavy metal‐polluted soils, but their roles remain underexplored.
