This multicenter retrospective cohort study suggested that postoperative infection (PI) after curative colorectal surgery (CRC) is associated with impaired oncological outcomes. Strategies to prevent PI and implement appropriate postoperative treatment may improve the quality of care and oncological outcomes in patients undergoing curative CRC surgery.

Transmission factors and exposure to infections at work and invasive pneumococcal disease
Abstract Background Working in close contacts with coworkers or the general public may be associated with transmission of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). We investigated whether crowded workplaces, sharing surfaces, and exposure to infections were factors associated with IPD.

Ryegrass is considered a useful grass species for forage production and turf purposes. Annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) and perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)are two species of ryegrass with similar genomes. So far, little information exists

Ricinus communis is an important energy crop and is considered as one of the most potential plants for salt-alkali soil improvement in Northeast China. Early seedling stage (such as the cotyledon expansion stage) is always a vulnerable stage but plays a ...

Identifying vegetation patterns for a qualitative assessment of land degradation using a cellular automata model and satellite imagery [PDF]
We aim to identify the spatial distribution of vegetation and its growth dynamics with the purpose of obtaining a qualitative assessment of vegetation characteristics tied to its condition, productivity and health, and to land degradation. To do so, we compare a statistical model of vegetation growth and land surface imagery derived vegetation indices.

Estimation of vegetation loss coefficients and canopy penetration depths from SMAP radiometer and IceSAT lidar data [PDF]
In this study the framework of the $\tau$-$\omega$ model is used to derive vegetation loss coefficients and canopy penetration depths from SMAP multi-temporal retrievals of vegetation optical depth, single scattering albedo and ICESat lidar vegetation heights.

EVOLUTION OF CONCEPTS ON POLYPOID VEGETATION IN THE NASAL CAVITY AND PARANASAL SINUSIS
Nasal polyps are known to mankind since ancient times. However, to this day, the polypoid vegetation processes remain insufficiently studied, and the problem of polypous rhinosinusitis is widespread.According to the European Position Paper on ...

Predicting the emergence of localised dihedral patterns in models for dryland vegetation [PDF]
Localised patterns are often observed in models for dryland vegetation, both as peaks of vegetation in a desert state and as gaps within a vegetated state, known as `fairy circles'. Recent results from radial spatial dynamics show that approximations of localised patterns with dihedral symmetry emerge from a Turing instability in general reaction ...
