Yield, lodging, and water use efficiency of Tef [Eragrostis tef (zucc) Trotter] in response to carbonized rice husk application under variable moisture condition.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Terminal drought and lodging are among the major yield-limiting factors for tef cultivation in the highly weathered soils of the Ethiopian highlands. Therefore, a study was conducted to assess the yield and lodging responses of tef to varying moisture ...

Simple and Efficient Algorithm for Improving the MDL Estimator of the Number of Sources

open access: yesSensors, 2014
We propose a simple algorithm for improving the MDL (minimum description length) estimator of the number of sources of signals impinging on multiple sensors. The algorithm is based on the norms of vectors whose elements are the normalized and nonlinearly

Gastrointestinal Parasites in Himalayan Musk Deer (Moschus leucogaster Hodgson, 1839) and Sympatric Livestock in Gaurishankar Conservation Area, Nepal [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
This research shows high gastrointestinal parasitic infections in the endangered Himalayan musk deer, indicating a significant risk of cross‐transmission from sympatric livestock (chauri and horses). Moreover, distinct host‐specific parasite dominance and habitat‐dependent infection patterns accentuate the need for minimising livestock‐wildlife contact

Cross‐Cohort Evidence Links KCNJ6 rs702859 to Impulsive–Compulsive Phenotypes in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Impulse control disorders (ICDs) and related compulsive behaviors (CBs) are frequent non‐motor complications of Parkinson's disease (PD) with a probable genetic contribution. Objective To investigate whether genetic variants involved in reward and punishment processing are associated with impulsive–compulsive phenotypes in PD ...

Leucaena Oil Functionalized With Osmium Tetroxide as a Precursor for Polyol‐Based Polyurethane

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Leucaena leucocephala seed oil is converted into a hydroxyl‐functional biopolyol through OsO4‐mediated dihydroxylation. The resulting biopolyol shows a hydroxyl number of 160–175 mg KOH g−1 and is successfully used to produce flexible, open‐cell polyurethane foams, highlighting a renewable route for converting underutilized biomass into value‐added ...

Impacts of Fluorination at the Ortho‐Position of Carboxy Groups on Tetrakis(biphenyl)ethene‐Based Hydrogen‐Bonded Framework

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This work provides new findings on the effect of fluorination on the substitution of TPE derivatives and the modulation of the structure and fluorescence properties of hydrogen‐bonded organic framework (HOF) of F‐CBPE. ABSTRACT Fluorination of building block molecules is one of the effective engineering approaches to modulate molecular assembly in ...

Juvenile and Pubertal Exposure to Polystyrene Nanoplastics Impairs Epididymal Structure and Sperm Quality in Mice

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are emerging environmental contaminants capable of crossing biological barriers, accumulating in tissues, and disrupting physiological pathways. The male reproductive system is particularly vulnerable during the postnatal period, a developmental window characterized by intense testicular differentiation and epididymal ...

Hemodynamic Effects of Prolonged Apneic Oxygenation in Laryngologic Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Limited data exist on cardiocirculatory responses associated with extended periods of apnea during administration of high‐flow nasal oxygen for laryngologic surgery (apneic oxygenation with HFNO, AO‐HFNO). The possibility of hemodynamic compromise in the settings of acute hypercapnia, respiratory acidosis, hyperoxia, and IV ...

Global Disparity Within the Management of Traumatic Abdominal Vascular Injuries: Analysis of a Global Dataset

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Vascular injuries are common to trauma and carry a high risk to limb and life. Integrating specialist vascular care into existing trauma systems is essential; however, global data on this topic remains limited. This study describes global patterns of abdominal vascular trauma, through secondary analysis of the Global Outcomes After Laparotomy for ...

Simultaneous Measurement of MDL and DMGD in FMFs by Analyzing the Rayleigh Backscattering Amplitudes

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2019
In this paper, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel method for simultaneously measuring mode-dependent loss (MDL) and differential modal group delay (DMGD) in few mode fibers (FMFs).
