Improving access to new technologies: An experiment with Kenyan input sellers

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agrodealers play a critical role in rural economies, selling essential inputs for agricultural production, stocking new products, and providing farmers with technical advice. However, uncertainty can discourage them from stocking newer, less familiar products, limiting the availability of innovative technologies and leading to market failures ...

Risk management externalities in agrifood supply chains

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Firms may under‐ or over‐invest in risk management from the social planner's perspective, resulting in a negative externality on other economic agents in the supply chain. The externality of risk management is particularly relevant for agrifood supply chains, which frequently experience disruptions and play a primary role in preventing major ...

Compression Suture Staple Repair of Simulated Gluteus Medius Partial Tendon Tears Provides Increased Contact Pressure Compared With Stepwise Bridged Repair

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To examine the contact mechanics of 2 different suture anchor configuration constructs for gluteus medius repair in partial‐thickness tears and to define an optimal distance for anchor placement in a biomechanical model. Methods Trochanteric bone was simulated using polyurethane foam blocks, and a polyurethane rubber was used as a surrogate for

Three‐Anchor Knotless Compression Bridges Improve Contact Mechanics in a Biomechanical Model of Large, Single‐Row Tendon Repairs

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To investigate the influence of anchor density on tendon footprint contact mechanics in knotless all‐suture anchor compression bridge constructs. Methods Unicortical polyurethane solid foam blocks with a cancellous density of 20 lb/ft3 and a cortical density of 40 lb/ft3 simulated bone.

The gift remembered: The Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS) Anatomical Donor Stewardship's ethical and practical handbook for anatomy donor tributes

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Providing students with a way to honor human body donors during or after an anatomy course has been shown to help provide a sense of closure and comfort to students and, when present, donor families. Gestures of gratitude for donors can also emphasize humanistic values of respect, empathy, and professionalism.
