Chemical weathering processes are becoming increasingly important in studies on carbon cycling because they are responsible for increased solute fluxes in the proglacial zone, can effectively sequester atmospheric CO and raise carbon budgets for lateral transport via rivers. Here, we examined the hydrochemical and hydrogeochemical processes, solute sources and factors controlling riverine pCO of the Alaknanda River and its tributaries for three sampling seasons, viz. pre-monsoon (May 2021), post-monsoon (October 2021) and winter (January 2022).

Objective: To evaluate outcomes after primary surgery (PS) or neoadjuvant treatment followed by surgery (NAT/S) in cT2 staged adenocarcinomas of the esophagus (EAC) and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ), a multinational high-volume center study was undertaken.

Background: The optimal treatment approach with either NAT/S or PS for clinically staged cT2cN any or cT2N0 EAC and GEJ remains unknown due to the lack of randomized controlled trials.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of prospectively maintained databases from 10 centers was performed.

Purpose: An efficient physics-informed deep learning approach for extracting spinopelvic measures from X-ray images is introduced and its performance is evaluated against manual annotations.

Methods: Two datasets, comprising a total of 1470 images, were collected to evaluate the model's performance. We propose a novel method of detecting landmarks as objects, incorporating their relationships as constraints (LanDet).

Introduction: Military service personnel are required to deploy to austere environments where they are exposed to harsh conditions. Many service personnel continue to wear contact lenses when deployed as they are an effective alternative to spectacles by affording superior ergonomic functionality, although they are associated with significant complications. We aimed to explore the prevalence and type of contact lens-related complications among deployed service personnel worldwide.

Administration of medication is a well-established part of prehospital trauma care. Guidance varies on the types of recommended medications and when they should be administered. Mnemonics have become commonplace in prehospital medicine to facilitate recall and retention.
