LAND USE CHANGES AND LAND DEGRADATION IN POST-SOCIALIST ROMANIA by DAN BĂLTEANU, ELENA-ANA POPOVICI

“…En même temps, on constate une dégradationaccentuée des terrains, comme résultat d’une utilisation irrationnelle du fonds foncier, de l’abandon on destruction des systèmes d’amélioration et de la faible fertilisation des terrains agricoles. Les plus importants processus de dégradation des sols qui portent préjudicies à des surfaces étendues de terrains agricoles sont: l’érosion hydrique et celle éolienne, les glissements de terrain, la sécheresse, le compactage, l’excès d’eau, l’appauvrissement du sol en matières organiques et en éléments nutritifs, la salinisation, l’acidification etc. …”

High-Risk Genotypes Associated with Poor Response to Controlled Ovarian Stimulation in Indian Women by Anuradha Udumudi, K. Chaitra Lava, Vandana Hegde

“…Background: Infertility is a global burden and has become exceedingly common in the preceding years; controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) is a pre-requisite for couples opting to conceive via in vitro fertilisation (IVF). Based on the number of oocytes retrieved upon COS, a patient may be classified as a good responder or poor responder. …”
