Effect of Membrane Perforations With and Without Collagen Membrane Coverage in Vertical Ridge Augmentation: An Experimental Pilot In Vivo Study

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Given the proposed bioactive role of collagen membranes, we aimed to evaluate whether the perforation size of titanium‐reinforced dPTFE membranes, with or without an additional collagen membrane, influences outcomes of vertical alveolar ridge augmentation (VARA).

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Pest‐preservation paradox among insects

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
The pest‐preservation paradox is a non‐binary perspective that insects range from those that are harmful and requiring management on the one side, to those requiring conservation intervention on the opposite end of the spectrum. Importantly, the vast majority of insects occur somewhere in the center of the two extremes, and their position along the ...

Primary Efficacy of Co-Fumigation with Methyl Bromide and Phosphine Against Tribolium castaneum and Sitophilus zeamais in Wood Pellets as a Quarantine Treatment

Insects
Pests in wood pellets are treated using methyl bromide (MB) fumigation, which has low efficacy against pests because of its high adsorption to wood pellets.

Landscape and Geography Determine Saproxylic Beetle Captures in Pheromone‐Baited Traps

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Pheromone‐baited traps at 39 forest sites across southern Sweden captured 58 saproxylic beetle species, including seven Red‐listed taxa. The effect of surrounding forest cover on beetle abundance may depend on latitude and longitude: positive effects were strongest in warmer southern and eastern regions but weakened or reversed in colder northwestern ...
