Carbon and nutrient losses during manure storage under traditional and improved practices in smallholder crop-livestock systems - evidence from Kenya [PDF]

, 2009
In the absence of mineral fertiliser, animal manure may be the only nutrient resource available to smallholder farmers in Africa, and manure is often the main input of C to the soil when crop residues are removed from the fields.

Retropubic hemorrhage following Midurethral sling surgery: Diagnosis, clinical challenges, and management

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Retropubic hemorrhage after TVT surgery, though rare, is a serious complication—we outline a management strategy emphasizing timely diagnosis and tailored treatment to reduce morbidity. Abstract Mid‐urethral slings (MUS) such as tension‐free vaginal tape (TVT) are the established gold standard surgical approach for treating stress urinary incontinence (

Port‐site hernia following laparoscopic gynecological surgery: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
This systematic review of 70 346 patients revealed an estimated incidence of port‐site hernia of 0.29%. Fascial closure reduces risk but does not eliminate port‐site hernia, and no specific closure technique shows clear superiority. Abstract Introduction Port‐site hernia (PSH) is a rare but clinically relevant complication of laparoscopic gynecologic ...

What's the worth of a promise? Evaluating the long‐term effects of a programme to reduce early marriage in India

Economica, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper examines the long‐term effects of ‘Apni Beti Apna Dhan’ (ABAD), a unique conditional cash transfer programme implemented in the north Indian state of Haryana from 1994 to 1998. The programme provided bonds to female beneficiaries at birth, redeemable on attaining 18 years of age, if they remained unmarried. In particular, we examine

A Review of a Decade of Anadromous Salmonid Hatchery (And Stocking) Research: Insights for Policy, Management and a Changing Climate

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hatcheries and stocking programmes have long been a cornerstone of fisheries management, seen as tools for fisheries enhancement and/or conservation of threatened populations. Their use draws controversy, however, from a growing body of research over the last 50 years suggesting that stocking can have negative consequences for wild stocks, and

Zebrafish as a model for Catel–Manzke syndrome—identification and characterization of the zebrafish TGDS ortholog

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Zebrafish Tgds, when expressed as a recombinant protein, catalyzes the dehydration of UDP‐D‐glucose, the initial step in the formation of 6‐deoxyhexoses. Corresponding Tgds mutations found in Catel–Manzke syndrome patients lead to reduced enzymatic activity and stability.

Impact of Environmental Conditions on the Spawning Migration of Sea Trout (Salmo trutta L.) in Two Large, Sub‐Arctic River Systems

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global decline in salmonid stocks has increased the need for knowledge of local adaptations and life history strategies of salmonids. In this study, we used radio‐telemetry tracking data from sea trout populations in two large high‐latitude rivers to model upstream spawning migration speed of trout in response to prevailing environmental ...
