Increased planting density combined with reduced nitrogen rate to achieve high yield in maize

Scientific Reports, 2021
The combination effects of nitrogen (N) fertilizer and planting density on maize yield, N use efficiency and the characteristics of canopy radiation capture and radiation use efficiency are not well documented in the Huanghuaihai Plain region in China. A

Reducing caesarean section rates – No easy task [PDF]

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2013
To identify the greatest potential for reducing overall caesarean delivery rates, we used longitudinally linked data for women with consecutive births 2001–2009 to examine the likely impact of hypothetical risk‐based scenarios. Among women with a first birth, singleton, vertex‐presenting fetus at term, increasing the vaginal birth rate following ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Effects of the Fluid Replacement Method During Online Hemodiafiltration on the Solute Removal Performance and Biocompatibility Using the Asymmetric Cellulose Triacetate Membrane

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pre‐dilution online hemodiafiltration (Pre‐HDF) is predominantly used in Japan, whereas post‐dilution online HDF (Post‐HDF) is more common in Europe. An asymmetric cellulose triacetate (ATA) membrane may improve biocompatibility.

Reduced-Rank MMSE Detection in Space-Time Coded Space-Division Multiple-Access Systems

, 2006
A multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) space-division multiple-access (SDMA) system is presented and investigated, when the space-time block coded (STBC) user signals are transmitted over Rayleigh fading channels. In the proposed SDMA system each mobile

Rate-Optimal and Reduced-Complexity Sequential Sensing Algorithms for Cognitive OFDM Radios

EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2009
Sequential sensing algorithms are developed for OFDM-based hierarchical cognitive radio (CR) systems. Secondary users sense multiple subbands simultaneously for possible spectrum availabilities under hard misdetection constraints to prevent interference ...

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
