Our study measured heterotrophic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in a drained peatland under potato cultivation in south-western Uganda. Soil carbon losses have not previously been reported for this land use, and our study set out to capture the range and temporal variation in emissions, as well as investigate relationships with key environmental va...

Recently, endoscopic ultrasound-guided gallbladder drainage has attracted much attention. However, the risk management of adverse events and techniques to avoid them are not yet mature. Difficulty dilating the fistula with a dilator or placing a stent for drainage often prolongs the procedure time, which increases the risk of peritonitis or the pro...

Although the lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) is useful for interventional endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) procedures, there has been some concern about the potential for stent-induced adverse events because of the high lumen-apposing force. A newly designed LAMS with less lumen-apposing force has been developed for use with a physician-controlled ele...

BackgroundCranial dural arteriovenous fistulas with cortical venous drainage are rare lesions that can present with hemorrhage. A high rate of rebleeding in the early period following hemorrhage has been reported, but published long-term rates are much lower. No study has examined how risk of rebleeding changes over time. Our objective was to quant...

Aim: The aim of this study is to propose a contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS)-based morphologic classification of pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) reflecting different evolutive stages and to assess the added value of CEUS in the management of PLA. Methods: Forty-four PLAs of different etiologies in 44 patients (male/female = 24/20; mean age 66 ± 14.7...

Background To investigate the efficacy and safety of preoperative intravenous tranexamic acid (TXA) combined with intraoperative immersion in reducing perioperative blood loss in one-stage posterior thoracolumbar tuberculosis. Methods All patients were divided into four groups: Group A received an intravenous drip of TXA before surgery, group B rec...

Vertisols belong to a group of soils with high fertility but poor physical properties of swelling when wet and shrinking and cracking when dry. The swelling inhibits infiltration, resulting in flooding, limiting the production of upland crops. Biochar (

Standardized cultivation systems are crucial for establishing reproducible agronomic techniques. Especially stone wool-based cultivation is governed by standardized specifications and provides a controllable root-zone environment. However, the effects of stone wool cover incision on root-zone variability have rarely been studied. Therefore, in this...

Identify critical factors driving seedling establishment is essential for saltmarsh restoration. Recent studies highlight drainage can facilitate seedling establishment for different saltmarsh species, yet the underling mechanism remains largely unknown. By a manipulative mesocosm experiment with contrasting sediment drainage treatments, we investi...

Highlight Duodenal invasion has been reported to be a risk factor for early biliary stent dysfunction in patients with pancreatic cancer. Mandai and colleagues describe their method of transpapillary biliary drainage using a long plastic stent as a potentially useful treatment option to avoid early stent dysfunction in such patients. © 2022 Japanes...
