EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PLASTIBELL CIRCUMCISION IN NEONATESAND INFANTS AT A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL by Muhammad Abid Owais

Modeling the Grain Import Trade: A Cointegration Analysis of China’s Panel Data by Feng Zhao, Pingping Sun, Jie Zhang

“…The imports of corn and soybean present a great country effect to a certain extent in the short term; moreover, a change in the grain price in the international market does not lead to a change in China’s grain import volume, which shows that the great country effect in China’s grain import trade is distorted. Therefore, China should pay close attention to the impact of international factors on the fluctuation of its own food prices and enhance its ability to rationally utilize the international food market and international agricultural resources to ensure domestic food security.…”

O PROERD funciona? Notas a partir de estudo quase-experimental by Marcos Rolim, Daiana Hermann, Camila Louis Oliveira

“…The study showed, however, that other independent variables, such as not living with parents, not having a good relationship with them, having suffered physical violence, having been humiliated or threatened in the school environment and living with a family member who consumes alcoholic beverages, are correlated significantly with drug use and poor school performance, which suggests that they may be predictive factors for these phenomena. …”

Setting scientific names at all taxonomic ranks in italics facilitates their quick recognition in scientific papers by Marco Thines, Takayuki Aoki, Pedro W. Crous, Kevin D. Hyde, Robert Lücking, Elaine Malosso, Tom W. May, Andrew N. Miller, Scott A. Redhead, Andrey M. Yurkov, David L. Hawksworth

“…Since scientific names treated under the various Codes of nomenclature are without exception treated as Latin, there is no reason why names above genus level should be handled differently, particularly as higher taxon names are becoming increasingly relevant in systematic and evolutionary studies and their italicization would aid the unambiguous recognition of formal scientific names distinguishing them from colloquial names. Several leading mycological and botanical journals have already adopted italics for names of all taxa regardless of rank over recent decades, as is the practice in the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants, and we hereby recommend that this practice be taken up broadly in scientific journals and textbooks.…”
