Common bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] is an economically and ecologically important warm-season perennial species widely used for turf, forage, and soil conservation and remediation. Seeding offers economic and practical advantages over vegetative propagation for establishing common bermudagrass. However, the adoption of seeded cultivars is limited by slow germination speed and low germination rates. The genetic basis behind these traits in common bermudagrass remains elusive....

CONCLUSION: Despite regulatory improvements, publication-based AE reporting remains incomplete and inconsistent. Clinical trial registries remain an essential, yet underutilized, resource for harm-related evidence in sinonasal disease research.

Afghan refugees in the US face significant challenges, including limited access to healthcare. This study investigates the relationship between social determinants of health (SDOH), including-material circumstances, psychosocial circumstances, behavioral and/or biological factors - and self-rated health among recently resettled Afghan refugees (who received Special Immigrant Visas) in Oklahoma. Data were collected from 348 Afghan refugees using a community-based survey administered in English,...

Clathrate hydrates are fascinating materials that offer many attractive benefits for carbon sequestration, water desalination, intermittent natural gas storage, chemical separations, and other applications. However, their slow growth kinetics prevents the cost-effective realization of hydrate-based technologies. To overcome this challenge, chemical additives have been identified to control hydrates' growth rate. Among others, the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and the amino acid...

CONCLUSIONS: Present findings suggest that AWS, as a group, exhibit weaknesses in one component of executive function-working memory-compared to AWNS. Additional research is necessary to determine potential differences in inhibition and cognitive flexibility in AWS.
