Residency Exposure to URPS (Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery)‐Trained Attendings Increase the Number of Female Pelvic Procedures Performed by General Urologists After Graduation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction As the population ages, there is an increasing demand for urologists who specialize in female pelvic surgery. However, 30% of residency programs lack a Urogynecology Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery (URPS)‐trained attending, potentially limiting resident exposure.

Effect of the soil matric potential on the germination capacity of prosopis chilensis, quillaja saponaria and cryptocarya alba from contrasting geographical origins [PDF]

, 2022
As a consequence of the megadrought in Central Chile, it is expected that most of the distribution of woody species will be narrowed in the northern limits because of restrictions imposed by soil matric potential on seed germination.

The Theory of Interpersonal Behaviour Applied to the Mediating Influence of Habit on Recycling Behaviour in South African Townships

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recycling rates in South African townships remain critically low, undermining progress towards sustainable development and the transition to a circular economy. This study applies the theory of interpersonal behaviour (TIP) to examine how recycling habits mediate the relationship between key drivers—past behaviour, environmental concern ...
