Habitat disturbance affects numerous ecosystem components and processes, but its effect on continuous soybean system is less available. Soybean was seeded following six preceding crops, including grain soybean (Glycine max L. Merill.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), corn (Zea mays L.) and hemp (Cannabis Satia L.), on a Mollisol ...

BACKGROUND Public pressure has increasingly emphasized the need to ensure the continuing quality of care provided by health professionals over their careers. Health profession's regulatory authorities, mandated to be publicly accountable for safe and effective care, are revising their quality assurance programs to focus on regular evaluations of practitioner performance. New methods for routine...

Understanding the phase transformation pathways (PTPs) and microstructural evolution in multi-phase HEAs will aid alloy process designs to tailor microstructures for specific engineering applications. In this work, we study two-phase where a disordered parent separates into mixture of two phases: an ordered ($\beta'$) + ($\beta$) upon cooling following different PTPs: (i) congruent ordering fol...

Epstein has argued that an explanation's capacity to make predictions should play a minor role in its evaluation . This view contradicts centuries of scientific practice and, at least, decades of philosophy of science. We argue that the view is not only unfounded but seems to arise from a mistaken fear that ABM models are in need of defense against the criticism that they don't necessarily fore...

Beta-lactam antibiotics display time-dependant pharmacodynamics whereby constant antibiotic concentrations rather than high peak concentrations are most likely to result in effective treatment of infections caused by susceptible bacteria. Continuous administration has been suggested as an alternative strategy, to conventional intermittent dosing, to optimise beta-lactam pharmacokinetic/pharmaco...

However, in situations of chronic, unilateral pars lysis, the neural arch tends to fail elsewhere on the contra-lateral side, secondary to recurrent strains imparted across [2]. These unusual situations result in the development of defects in the non-isthmic portions of neural arch: either involving the contra-lateral pedicle or lamina ...
