Medicine for the Material World
Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT It is clear that many of the inorganic materials of antiquity have been used both as medicines for human ills and also as agents in technological processes. This paper speculates that there might have been a stronger link between these two functions in the past, based on the concept of “active agents”—materials that are efficacious at curing ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Chaotic saddles in nonlinear modulational interactions in a plasma
, 2012 A nonlinear model of modulational processes in the subsonic regime involving a linearly unstable wave and two linearly damped waves with different damping rates in a plasma is studied numerically. We compute the maximum Lyapunov exponent as a function of

Diet and Care Mediate the Effects of Parenting and Nutrition Interventions on Childhood Infections
Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The effect of community‐based multi‐input interventions that promote health, nutrition, and development on childhood infections, and the pathways that explain these effects remain unclear. We conducted a secondary analysis of a factorial‐designed clustered randomized controlled trial (N = 1489) conducted in rural Pakistan to estimate the ...
