Long‐Term Straw Returning Combined With Mineral Fertilization Enhances Soil Quality but Elevates P Loss Risks in a Subtropical Rice–Wheat Rotation System, Central China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term straw returning is widely promoted to improve soil quality in intensive cropping systems, yet its combined effects with mineral fertilization on soil quality and phosphorus (P) loss risks remain unclear. Using a 16‐year field experiment in a rice–wheat rotation system, we evaluated the impacts of straw returning (S), NPK ...

Native Perennial Vegetation Buffer Strips Improve Structural Indicators of Riparian Protection in Mediterranean Agroecosystems

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riparian zones in Mediterranean agroecosystems are highly vulnerable to degradation because cultivation often reaches stream edges and annual vegetation senesces during the late‐summer dry period, leaving soils exposed when the first erosive autumn rains occur.

Stuttering for Free

open access: yesProceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages, 2023
One of the most common tools for proving behavioral refinements between transition systems is the method of simulation proofs, which has been explored extensively over the past several decades. Stuttering simulations are an extension of traditional simulations—used, for example, in CompCert—in which either the ...

Speech and Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease, Essential Tremor, and Dystonia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Deep brain stimulation (DBS) effectively treats motor symptoms in movement disorders but often compromises speech through incompletely defined mechanisms. We conducted a PROSPERO‐registered systematic review and meta‐analysis of publications through August 2024 (CRD42024527738).

Biofeedback and stuttering

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Communication Disorders, 1981
Electromyographic biofeedback was used to reduce tension and enhance control of the speech associated muscles, resulting in a reduction of the frequency of stuttering. Five sessions were conducted over a course of three weeks. A mild, moderate and severe stutterer were assessed.

Frequency of ZFHX3‐Mediated Spinocerebellar Ataxia 4 in a US Undiagnosed Ataxia Cohort

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinocerebellar ataxia 4 (SCA4) is a late‐onset dominant ataxia with neuropathy caused by exonic GGC repeat expansion in the ZFHX3 gene thought to originate from a Swedish founder event. The GC‐rich expansion is highly thermodynamically stable, posing challenges for standard clinical genetic testing methods.

Using Deep Learning AI to Detect Riparian Vegetation Recovery Following a Major Flood in the Brisbane River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐flood riparian vegetation recovery demands significant attention; however, the complexity of traditional remote sensing methods often hinders environmental managers from implementing rapid vegetation monitoring. This paper developed a model using a Deep Learning Model within ArcGIS to classify and detect recovery of vegetation with high ...

When Time Stands Still: The Destructive Experience of Ambiguous Loss among Mothers of Combat Soldiers

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
What happens when stories refuse coherence? This article examines ambiguous loss among mothers of combat soldiers, focusing on how prolonged waiting and uncertainty infiltrate everyday life, eroding sensemaking. Drawing on ethnographic interviews, it explores how mothers experience the contraction of time and space—manifested in suspended routines ...

Social anxiety disorders among stutterers: effects of different variants

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology, 2018
Context Development of social anxiety disorders (SADs) among stutterers was and is still poorly understood. Despite the absence of clear factors responsible for the emergence of such a disorder among the stuttering population, age, sex, and severity of ...

Comparative evaluation of adhesive tapes and stamps for touch DNA collection from textile substrates

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract A substantial proportion of forensic evidence consists of skin or contact traces, commonly referred to as touch DNA. The collection of such biological material remains challenging due to its invisibility and low abundance. Further, depending on substrate type and surface properties, different recovery methods are employed, with adhesive tapes ...
