The long desired self-sufficiency in national and grass-root fish production is momentous to food security in Nigeria. The nature and patterns of feed utilization among fish farming households will provide a strategy to raise demand for local feeds thereby raising national feed production vis-à-vis reducing Nigeria’s import dependency on feeds....

Powdery mildew of hop (Podosphaera macularis) may cause economic loss due to reductions in cone yield and quality.
Quantitative estimates of crop damage from powdery mildew remain poorly characterized, especially the effect of late season
disease management on crop yield and quality. Field studies in Washington State evaluated cone yield,...

An Expert Panel convened by the National Lipid Association previously developed a consensus set of recommendations for the patient-centered management of dyslipidemia in clinical medicine (part 1). These were guided by the principle that reducing elevated levels of atherogenic cholesterol (non–high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) reduces the risk...

Mat-forming “ground layers” of mosses and lichens often have functional impacts disproportionate to their biomass, and are responsible for sequestering one-third of the world's terrestrial carbon as they regulate water tables, cool soils and inhibit microbial decomposition. Without reliable assessment tools, the potential effects of climate and land use changes...
Context: Antibiotic prescribing in hospice patients is complicated by the focus on palliative rather than curative care and concerns regarding increasing antibiotic resistance.
Objective: To estimate antibiotic use in a national sample of hospice patients and identify facility and patient characteristics associated with antibiotic use in this population.
Methods: This...

1. Chronic infections may have negative impacts on wildlife populations, yet their effects are difficult to detect in the absence of long-term population monitoring. Brucella abortus, the bacteria responsible for bovine brucellosis, causes chronic infections and abortions in wild and domestic ungulates, but its impact on population dynamics is not...
