Article Synopsis
  • * A study tested the impact of a methane-derived microbial biostimulant on rice fields, focusing on its effects on grain yield and greenhouse gas emissions over three growing seasons.
  • * Results showed a grain yield increase of up to 39% and reductions in methane and nitrous oxide emissions by 31%-60% and 34%-50%, respectively, indicating the biostimulant improved crop physiology and development.

Alginates are linear anionic polysaccharides, which are well-known for their biocompatible, nontoxic, and biodegradable nature. The polymer consists of alternating units of β-(1 → 4)-linked D-mannuronic acid (M) and α-(1 → 4)-linked L-guluronic acid (G) that have hydroxyl and carboxyl groups as the main functional groups. As a large number of free carboxyl and hydroxyl groups are present in the polymeric chain, the polymer is predominantly hydrophilic.

Unlabelled: Glioma coined as a "butterfly" tumor associated with a dismal prognosis. Marine algal compounds with the richest sources of bioactive components act as significant anti-tumor therapeutics. However, there is a paucity of studies conducted on Fucoidan to enhance the anti-glioma efficacy of Temozolomide.

Objectives: To compare the efficacy of laparoscopic transabdominal cerclage (TAC) pre-pregnancy and laparoscopic TAC in pregnancy in treating cervical insufficiency.

Method: A retrospective analytical study comparing outcomes of laparoscopic TAC pre-pregnancy with laparoscopic TAC in pregnancy. A total of 178 patients who underwent laparoscopic TAC at our hospital were enrolled in the study.
