Poultry litter extract as solid waste supplement for enhanced microalgal biomass production and wastewater treatment.

Wastewater and livestock waste can be used as a cheap source of nutrients for microalgae growth. In this work, a cocktail waste medium (CWM) was developed using 75% Chhalera municipal wastewater (C-MWW), 25% Parag dairy wastewater (P-DWW), and 15 g L of poultry litter extract (PLE-15) for low-cost cultivation of Chlorella sp. BRE4.

Lu-DOTATATE Plus Capecitabine Versus Lu-DOTATATE Alone in Patients with Advanced Grade 1/2 Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (LuCAP): A Randomized, Phase 2 Trial.

Lu-DOTATATE has emerged as a viable treatment strategy for advanced well-differentiated grade 1/2 gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). Few retrospective studies have shown concomitant Lu-DOTATATE with radiosensitizing low-dose capecitabine to be effective in advanced NETs. However, this has not been validated in prospective randomized-controlled trials.

Age at Menarche Is Associated With Leg-Length Components Among the Adolescent Girls in West Bengal, India.

Background: The relationship between early age at menarche (AAM) and body height (HT), including its different segments has not been extensively studied among non Western populations. Lengths of the lower (distal) part of the leg, such as knee HT (KH) and tibial length (TbL), are considered to be sensitive indicators of living conditions during early growth and development. Life history theory predicts that within a survival challenge the growth of vital parts of the body shall be prioritized over less essential parts.
