Restoring oak forests through direct seeding or planting: Protocol for a continental-scale experiment.

The choice of revegetating via direct seeding or planting nursery-grown seedlings influences the potential stresses suffered by seedlings such as herbivory and drought. The outcome of the balance between both revegetation methods may ultimately depend on how species identity and traits such as seed and seedling size interact with environmental conditions. To test this, we will conduct a continental-scale experiment consisting of one mini-experiment replicated by multiple participants across Europe.

Intraoperative Navigation and Cone Beam Computed Tomography for Restoring Orbital Dimensions: A Single-Center Experience.

Background: Correction of post-traumatic orbital defects remains a challenge for the maxillofacial surgeon. We examined the added value of combined intraoperative (IO) navigation and IO cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed in all consecutive patients requiring unilateral post-traumatic orbital surgery between January 2012 and December 2018.

Presentation and short-term evaluation of an all-in-one patient-specific implant for cranial reconstruction: A randomized controlled trial.

Cranial reconstruction after bone graft harvesting remains a challenge. A patient-specific implant (PSI) to guide harvesting and reconstruction was evaluated and compared with the use of a free-hand procedure with calcium phosphate cement (C). Patients were randomized to either the PSI or C group.

An examination of the relationship between athlete leadership and cohesion using social network analysis.

Two studies investigated the structure of different athlete leadership networks and its relationship to cohesion using social network analysis. In Study 1, we examined the relationship between a general leadership quality network and task and social cohesion as measured by the Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ). In Study 2, we investigated the leadership networks for four different athlete leadership roles (task, motivational, social and external) and their association with task and social cohesion networks.

The Art of Athlete Leadership: Identifying High-Quality Athlete Leadership at the Individual and Team Level Through Social Network Analysis.

This research aimed to introduce social network analysis as a novel technique in sports teams to identify the attributes of high-quality athlete leadership, both at the individual and at the team level. Study 1 included 25 sports teams (N = 308 athletes) and focused on athletes' general leadership quality. Study 2 comprised 21 sports teams (N = 267 athletes) and focused on athletes' specific leadership quality as a task, motivational, social, and external leader.
