Separating NO production and consumption in intact agricultural soil cores at different moisture contents and depths.

Agricultural soils are a major source of the potent greenhouse gas and ozone depleting substance, NO. To implement management practices that minimize microbial NO production and maximize its consumption (i.e.

Prevalence of abnormal liver tests and liver fibrosis among rural adults in low and middle-income country: A cross-sectional study.

Background: Liver disease is the only major chronic disease and mortality is increasing. Earlier detection of liver fibrosis can reduce progression to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Many studies have reported an increased prevalence in liver fibrosis among adults in urban regions but there are few data in physically active rural populations without attributable metabolic risk factors.

Electronic prescribing systems as tools to improve patient care: a learning health systems approach to increase guideline concordant prescribing for venous thromboembolism prevention.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) causes significant mortality and morbidity in hospitalised patients. Risk factors for VTE are well known and there are validated risk assessment tools to support the use of prophylactic therapies. In England, reporting the percentage of patients with a completed VTE risk assessment is mandated, but this does not include whether that risk assessment resulted in appropriate prescribing.

Increased risk of COVID-19-related admissions in patients with active solid organ cancer in the West Midlands region of the UK: a retrospective cohort study.

Objective: Susceptibility of patients with cancer to COVID-19 pneumonitis has been variable. We aim to quantify the risk of hospitalisation in patients with active cancer and use a machine learning algorithm (MLA) and traditional statistics to predict clinical outcomes and mortality.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.
