Reduced‐Port Versus Multi‐Port Laparoscopic Colectomy for Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review, Meta‐Analysis, and Meta‐Regression

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Reduced‐port laparoscopic colectomy (RPLC) for colorectal cancer offers modest intraoperative benefits, including shorter operative time and lower blood loss, while maintaining comparable postoperative recovery, lymph node yield, and complication rates to multi‐port laparoscopic colectomy (MPLC).

Lost ground, lost value: Investigating the relationship between soil erosion and agricultural land value

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

Borosulfates Hosting Se42+ Ions—Crystal Structures, Chemical Bonding, Optical Spectroscopy, and Magnetism

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Apart from (transition) metal (oxo)halides only few hosts stabilize chalcogenide cations in purely oxoanionic coordination environment. Herein, we report on five borosulfates containing the Se42+ ion and characterize the compounds using X‐ray diffraction, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, density functional theory (DFT) calculations along with magnetic

Effects of Phosphorus on No-Till, Minimum-Till, and Conventional Till Irrigated Field Corn

, 1987
This investigation involved three tillage treatments, fall plowed (conventional) (moldboard IS-centimeter depth), fall chiseled (ripped) (25-centimeter depth), and no-tillage (zero tillage) replicated four times on an established alfalfa field. Rye was planted in the fall and harvested prior to planting the corn.

Choice experiments on land managers' participation in environmental programs: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of estimate validity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Discrete choice experiments are increasingly being used to estimate land managers' willingness to accept participation in incentive‐based environmental programs. This is a specific application of discrete choice experiments: the estimation of willingness to accept for a private good (program participation) where respondents have to make trade ...

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 ...

Evolutionary history and taxonomy of the genus Zea

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Taxonomic differentiation of teosinte species (Zea spp.), the closest relatives of maize (Z. mays) is crucial for understanding their distribution, ecology, and evolutionary history. Resolving the taxonomic uncertainties is of scientific interest and has practical implications for biodiversity management, preservation, and utilization.

Negotiating contested spaces and places: Narratives of social suffering and resistance in racialized Cape Town communities

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study employs a schizocartographic approach to explore community narratives of space, memory, and violence in Kraaifontein, Cape Town. Through participants' accounts, ordinary places—gardens, shops, blocks, sports grounds, and streets—emerge as ambivalent geographies where trauma, resilience, and belonging intersect.
