Factors associated with better emotional, behavioural and educational outcomes in children with mild intellectual difficulties

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children with mild intellectual difficulties (MID) are at increased risk of poor mental health and functional outcomes compared to typically developing children. Previous research has primarily focused on deficit‐based comparisons. However, substantial heterogeneity exists in this population, ranging from significant impairment to ...

Guidelines for the Use of Synthetic Fluid Dust Control Palliatives on Unpaved Roads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The amount of small soil particles, dust, lost from typical unpaved roads to fugitive dust is staggering. A 1 km stretch of unpaved road can contribute over 2400 kg of dust to the atmosphere (4.2 ton/mile) in a typical 3-month summer season.

Children's psychological traits and educational performance: How schools and residential areas moderate how individual traits translate into academic outcomes

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The extent to which children's psychological traits influence their educational performance is thought to depend on the fit between the individual and their developmental context. However, this assumption has yet to be empirically tested on a population scale.

Molecular Investigations on Angiogenesis and Oxidative Stress in Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus) Bucks' Testes Throughout the Reproductive Cycle

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animals with seasonal reproductive cycles, as the Roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), have developed mechanisms to synchronize reproduction with the environmental cycle in order to optimize reproductive success through melatonin. Angiogenesis and oxidative stress are key processes in spermatogenesis, contributing to testicular remodeling and ...
