National and subnational plans for primary prevention and early detection of oral and oropharyngeal cancer: a scoping review.

This scoping review maps primary prevention and early detection strategies for oral and oropharyngeal cancer across national cancer plans and noncommunicable disease plans from all World Health Organization Member States. Following PRISMA-ScR guidelines, bibliographic search was performed on key organization websites until March 2023. Of the 194 countries assessed three had subnational plans, resulting in 264 self-governing political entities and similar with revised plans.

Non-native species have higher consumption rates than their native counterparts.

Non-native species can be major drivers of ecosystem alteration, especially through changes in trophic interactions. Successful non-native species have been predicted to have greater resource use efficiency relative to trophically analogous native species (the Resource Consumption Hypothesis), but rigorous evidence remains equivocal. Here, we tested this proposition quantitatively in a global meta-analysis of comparative functional response studies.

Removal of Ciprofloxacin and Norfloxacin from Aqueous Solution with Activated Carbon from Cupuaçu () Bark.

The widespread use of antibiotics such as fluoroquinolones (FQs) has raised environmental and health concerns. This study is innovative as we investigate the removal of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and norfloxacin (NOR) from water using activated carbon derived from cupuaçu bark (CAC). This previously discarded biomass is now a low-cost raw material for the production of activated carbon, boosting the local economy.

Artificial Diet for Immatures of Vaurie, 1978 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), Based on a Multidimensional Model.

Pest attacks, especially by , are a factor affecting sugarcane production. As the pest's life habits make chemical control difficult, efforts are focused on finding integrated management alternatives. It is therefore essential to study the biology of , using artificial diets for rearing the insect in the laboratory.

Water masses drive the spatial and temporal distribution of marine Archaea in the northern Antarctic Peninsula.

The Southern Ocean influences the planet's biogeochemical cycles. Marine microorganisms are important in this scenario, being the main biological agents in the cycling of many elements. The Archaea domain is widely distributed in the oceans, and its presence in Antarctica is acknowledged.
