Abstract Rice cultivation is important in China with over 29.33 million hm 2 of rice fields, producing 28.9% yields worldwide. fields are mass breeding sites for mosquitoes approximately 40 mosquito species found amongst them. Anopheles sinensis , lesteri and Culex tritaeniorhynchus the three main that fields. An. vectors malaria flat areas China, Cx. a vector Japanese B encephalitis. This revi...

Microplastics are abundant in agricultural soils and have significant impacts on rainfall infiltration soil water-retaining capacity. To explore the effect of microplastics permeability by simulating irrigation process, a one-dimensional vertical column test device was used to study unsaturated characteristics loess imbued with under conditions. The following conclusions could be obtained: micr...

Methods We selected 48 patients with moderate to severe rhinitis (12 of them had intermittent asthma) sensitized to Der p without prior treatment with allergen specific immunotherapy. The protocol was approved by the ethics committee. All participants signed informed consent. Determination of total IgE and specific IgE for Der p1 (D1) and Der p2 (D2) were performed in serum and nasal lavage, us...

Drought-tolerant maize hybrids currently are being marketed by several seed suppliers. Such hybrids were developed by phenotypic and marker-assisted selection or through genetic modification and tested by exposing these hybrids to various degrees of water restriction. As drought intensifies, crop yields and survival progressively decline. Water need differs among plants due to differences in ro...

M oday, Sptem er 6, 2016 study, the authors introduce the utilization of alar pinning with the external halo distractor for maxillary advancement, in place of an oral splint. Fixation sites within the alar crease allow for maxillary advancement while minimizing the visibility of pin site scars. They also eliminate the need for a custom-made oral splint, which prevents the patient from using the...

Heap leach operations typically employ some form of modelling and forecasting tools to predict cash flow margins and project viability. However, these vary from simple spreadsheets to phenomenological models, with more complex models not commonly employed as they require the greatest amount of time and effort. Yet, accurate production modelling and forecasting are essential for managing product...
