ABSTRACT Background Post‐extubation emergence agitation (EA) is common in pediatric ear, nose, and throat (ENT) procedures and may lead to serious complications. Aims To assess the efficacy of low‐dose propofol administered before extubation, compared with placebo, for preventing EA, using meta‐analysis with trial sequential analysis (TSA).

Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...

Geological regulation of nitrous oxide emission risks in rivers globally
Fertilizer application has been recognized as the major driver of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in rivers. However, the intrinsic risk of N2O emissions in responding to nitrogen discharge (i.e., ratios between N2O emissions and dissolved inorganic ...

Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?
Reducing herbicide use and preparing agroecosystems for climate change are two top priorities on the global policy agenda. Here, we explore whether these two challenges can be tackled simultaneously. While weeds are generally considered a threat to crop production, we show that weeds can help overcome climate change challenges in agroecosystems ...

Key biochar properties linked to denitrification products in a calcareous soil
Meta-analyses show an overall decrease in soil N2O emissions after biochar (BC) amendment. Nonetheless, N2O mitigation with BC cannot be extrapolated to every BC-soil combination, inasmuch as an increase in soil N2O release has been occasionally reported.

Climate‐smart land management: Greenhouse gas outcomes and social and economic pathways to adoption
Climate change poses one of the greatest threats to natural and working lands, reducing the resilience of agricultural and forest productivity. Because land management is a leading source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, climate‐smart management practices are being implemented to reduce net emissions while sustaining yields.

Sustained bacterial N2O reduction at acidic pH
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a climate-active gas with emissions predicted to increase due to agricultural intensification. Microbial reduction of N2O to dinitrogen (N2) is the major consumption process but microbial N2O reduction under acidic conditions is ...

This study presents a photodetector based on atomically thin MoS2 on an InP substrate, forming an n‐MoS2/p‐InP type‐II staggered heterojunction. The device exhibits excellent rectifying properties with an ideality factor of 1.57 and achieves a peak photoresponsivity of 960 mA W−1, while MoS2 provides stable passivation for InP. III–V semiconductors are

Scaling turbulence drives the general circulation
The NOAA Gulfstream SP4, which deployed the GPS dropsondes over the NE Pacific Ocean as part of the Winter Storms Project during the January–March periods of 2004, 2005 and 2006. Abstract Statistical multifractal analysis of airborne and dropsonde observations is used to show that persistence of velocity after molecular collisions breaks the continuous

Analysis of the fractional scattering contribution in the forward peak for multicomponent systems
Derivation and justification of mixing rules for multicomponent systems. A novel formulation of the delta‐Eddington scaling rule. Analytical guidance for comparing radiative transfer results. Abstract The widely used δ‐Eddington approximation improves the accuracy of radiative transfer calculations by representing the fraction of scattering into the ...
