Article Synopsis
- Chicken manure can be transformed into a valuable fertilizer through a process called AFRODITE®, which involves 8 months of aerobic fermentation and has been studied over two years.
- The final product maintains stable pH and nitrogen levels, while promoting beneficial bacteria, mainly from the Bacillus genus, which enhance soil and plant growth.
- Greenhouse tests showed significant growth improvements in lettuce and eggplants when using the pelletized product, demonstrating its effectiveness and supporting the principles of circular economy.

These pollinators provide unique specific microbial niches, populated by a wide number of microorganisms such as symbionts, environmental opportunistic bacteria, and pathogens. Recently, it was demonstrated how microbial populations are shaped by trophic resources and environmental conditions but also by anthropogenic pressure, which strongly affects microbes' functionality.

This study aimed to assess the impact of LAT on survival of metastatic STS patients and to identify prognostic factors.
Methods: In this retrospective multicenter study, 246 STS patients with metastatic disease who underwent LAT on tumor board recommendation between 2017 and 2021 were analyzed.
