На основе обследования 27 участков лесных культур, созданных на бывши полигонах добычи драгоценных металлов, предпринята попытка установления эффективности лесохозяйственного направления рекультивации. Исследования проводились методом пробных площадей с определением приживаемости и сохранности лесных культур, созданных посевом семян и посадкой 2–3-...
Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common clinical entity, and its outcome is unpredictable due to the triad of inflammation, increased permeability and bacterial translocation. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a polyether compound that is extensively used in pharmacology as an excipient in various products. More recently, this class of ...

Burn eschar removal by enzymatic debridement with NexoBrid® (EDNX) results in a maximum preservation of all viable tissue, which is the main advantage over traditional tangential excision. The authors participated in a marketing authorization holder process to obtain reimbursement from the national health authorities in Belgium. The reimbursement p...
BACKGROUND: Prospective data on the risk of recurrence among women with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer who temporarily discontinue endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy are lacking. METHODS: We conducted a single-group trial in which we evaluated the temporary interruption of adjuvant endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy in young ...

Genetic relatedness figures heavily in contemporary ethical debates on egg freezing, although the arguments lack empirical-based evidence. Rather than adding another theoretical view on the moral relevance of genetic connections, this paper instead proposes an empirically grounded perspective based on two independent qualitative interview-based stu...
Safeguarding natural resources and energy is essential to ensure food security for future generations. Given the increase of published papers in the agricultural field applying Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), this review seeks to address the special requirements of this methodology when implemented in the agricultural sector as well as to classify...
ABSTRACT This research work investigated the preservation of information resources and user satisfaction with the use of library in Oko Polytechnic, Anambra State. The population of the study comprises 39 library staff and sample size of the study was 20 library staff which was selected randomly using simple random sample techniques. Three research...
Background: Transient receptor potential (TRP) ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) mediate the development of lung injury and inflammation. This study investigated the role and mechanism of the TRPA1/TRPV1 pathway in airway inflammation and bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) induced by acute ozone exposure. Methods: C57BL/6 mice (8–10 weeks)...
Adding hydrate inhibitors is an important method to prevent gas hydrates from blocking oil and gas pipelines and ground equipment. In this work, on the basis of polyvinyl caprolactam (PVCap), an ester group and a hydroxyl group were introduced into the molecular chain end of PVCap to synthesize a blocked modified inhibitor, Es-PVCap-OH. Fourier tra...
