Toxicological and pharmacological profiling of organically and non-organically cultivated Cymbopogon citratus

Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine, 2019
Background: With the rapid depletion of forests, impairing the availability of raw drugs, Ayurveda, has reached a very critical phase. Consequently, cultivation of medicinal plants is essential to ensure their availability to the industry. In view of the

CDFNet: Cross‐Modal Deep Fusion for Monocular 3D Semantic Scene Completion

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semantic scene completion (SSC) aims to predict the semantic occupancy and geometry of 3D scenes. Recently, most studies focus on camera‐based approaches due to the rich visual cues of images and the cost‐effectiveness of cameras. However, these methods usually lack efficient fusion and fine‐grained processing of cross‐modal semantic ...

The effects of aerated irrigation on soil respiration, oxygen, and porosity

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019
To ameliorate soil oxygen deficiencies around subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) drippers, aerated irrigation (AI) was introduced to supply aerated water to the soil through venturi installed in the SDI pipeline. The objectives of this study were to assess

Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived bacterial semiochemicals

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived airborne semiochemicals. Egg‐borne bacterial symbionts, and Serratia marcescens in particular, produce odorants which attract gravid female flies and elicit oviposition.

Inflammatory cytokines mediating the effect of oral lichen planus on oral cavity cancer risk: a univariable and multivariable mendelian randomization study

BMC Oral Health
Background While observational studies and experimental data suggest a link between oral lichen planus (OLP) and oral cavity cancer (OCC), the causal relationship and the role of inflammatory cytokines remain unclear.

The company you keep: The influence of popular delinquents and deviant brokers on offending trajectories

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on how delinquent peer associations affect individuals’ life courses is limited. This paper addresses this gap by examining delinquent peer network characteristics and their impact on offending trajectories through social network analysis (SNA) and group‐based trajectory modeling (GBTM).

Productivity and Human Disturbance Shape Contrasting Distribution Patterns of Core and Occasional Bird Species in a Subtropical Forest Reserve in Southern China

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Bird diversity hot spots in a recovering subtropical forest do not align with protected area zoning, instead occurring in experimental zones with low‐intensity human activity. This mismatch is driven by contrasting responses: Abundant core species are supported by productivity, while many species of low frequency are attracted to the habitat ...

Assessment of Business Aviation OCCs’ Capacity Issues

Procedia Engineering, 2017
Abstract Flying used to be a phenomenon of big airliners. It is now an ever-growing reality to see air carriers operating small aircraft too. Business jets are today frequent visitors to worldwide airspaces and airports. By gradual upgrades of the equipment (both aircraft and infrastructure) the character of business aviation changes significantly ...

Link prediction in ecological meta‐networks under extreme taxonomic bias

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological networks offer powerful insights into community function but, without first characterizing these networks accurately, our ability to detect and interpret changes under environmental stress is limited. We develop an extension of the Covariate‐Informed Link Prediction (COIL) framework to reduce bias in ecological link prediction when ...

Voice of Asia: Provision of Patient‐Centered Care in Oral Cavity Cancer: A Qualitative Study With Patients, Caregivers, and Healthcare Professionals in Five Asia‐Pacific Regions

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
The study identified key barriers to optimal patient‐centered care, including delayed diagnosis due to awareness and stigma‐related barriers among patients and caregivers, and opportunities to enhance multidisciplinary coordination. Resource limitations impacted nursing and psychosocial support, while access to support care varied across regions.
