Rapid non‐destructive assessment of leaf water status with low‐cost transmittance meters

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Tools for more efficiently managing agricultural production and the use of limited water resources are required in the context of a growing global population, while the increasing threat posed by droughts and wildfires necessitates improved methods for risk assessment, forecasting and early warning. Quantifying leaf water content is central to

Evidence for positive population‐level responses but not individual performance of sycamore aphids under elevated CO2

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
The abundance and density of three common sycamore aphids increased under elevated CO2, although this was only statistically significant for Drepanosiphum platanoidis. The number of nymphs produced by individual D. platanoidis alates isolated in clip cages was not significantly affected, suggesting that population level response was not driven by ...

Measuring patient disability in the peri‐operative period using the WHODAS 2.0 questionnaire: a systematic review

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction The World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) is recommended by peri‐operative core outcome sets as a measure of disability. Despite its growing use, the effect of different surgical procedures on disability measured by WHODAS 2.0 remains poorly understood and heterogeneous reporting across studies ...

Potentially Preventable Mortality After Elective Colorectal Cancer Surgery: Insights From a National Surgical Mortality Audit

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a significant contributor to preventable deaths worldwide. The assessment of potentially avoidable mortality following elective CRC surgery has yet to be reported. The Australian and New Zealand Audit of Surgical Mortality (ANZASM) seeks to peer‐review all deaths associated with surgical care.

A Systematic Scoping Review of Participant Descriptor, Diversity and Inclusivity Data Reported in Randomised Studies of Post‐Operative Ileus

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Poor reporting of baseline descriptor, diversity and inclusion data is a barrier in surgical research for drawing generalisable conclusions across diverse populations. Post‐operative ileus was used as an exemplar surgical condition to quantify the variation in baseline descriptor, inclusivity and diversity data in randomised ...
