ABSTRACT Urinary incontinence management through the use of an external urinary device (EUD) has captured the attention of hospitals in the prevention of catheter‐associated urinary tract infections with the theory of reduction in the use of indwelling urinary catheters. Retrospective chart review of 65 charts of women who were fitted with EUD's during

ABSTRACT Flies (Diptera) are important pollinators in global agriculture, yet little is known about how intraspecific trait variation influences their pollination performance. We compared morphological traits, foraging behaviour and pollination‐related performance metrics between laboratory‐reared (hereafter lab‐reared) and wild populations of ...

Responses of Fruit Flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) to Protein Bait Applied at Different Densities
ABSTRACT The effectiveness of odour‐based lures for insects is related to their active space, the air volume around an odour source in which an insect will detect and move towards it. This principle applies to protein baits laced with toxicants that are used as either sprays or stations to suppress pest fruit fly populations.
