Identification of heat tolerant lentil genotypes through stress tolerance indices.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Division of Genetics, Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, India.
With climate change projections indicating an increase in the frequency of extreme heat events and irregular rainfall patterns globally, the threat to global food security looms large. Terminal heat stress, which occurs during the critical reproductive stage, significantly limits lentil productivity. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve lentil's resilience to heat stress to sustain production.

BMJ Lead
January 2025
University of Louisville Health Sciences Center, Louisville, Kentucky, USA.
Background: Physicians are planful beings, spending much time imagining and trying to design their ideal careers. Yet, despite actuarial expectations that physicians may spend almost two decades in retirement, it is paradoxical that little attention is generally given to designing an ideal retirement.
Methods: The coauthors are physicians in the latter parts of their careers who both teach leadership to physicians and have thought deeply about physician transitions, including retirement.
Short-term orthokeratology effects on corneal biomechanics with a focus on SPA1 and stress-strain index (SSI) parameters in pediatric myopia.
Arq Bras Oftalmol
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Guangdong Eye Institute, Guangdong General Hospital, Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences. No. 106 Zhongshan Er Road, Guangzhou 510080, China.
Purpose: Although the orthokeratology effects on corneal biomechanics have been proven with clinical trials, reports of stiffness parameter change are scarce. This study investigated the short-term orthokeratology effects in pediatric myopia and compared stiffness parameter changes to those published in recent clinical investigations. This prospective study aimed to investigate corneal biomechanics changes induced by short-term overnight orthokeratology treatment, focusing on stiffness parameter at A1 and stress-strain index.

Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol
January 2025
National Clinical Research Center for Ocular Diseases, Eye Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University, 618# Fengqi East Road, Hangzhou, 310000, Zhejiang, China.
Purpose: To calculate the crystalline lens power and astigmatism, as well as their changes following cycloplegia, in individuals with myopia using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT).
Methods: Participants were divided into two groups according to axial length (AL). Crystalline lens parameters, including power, lens thickness (LT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and astigmatism, were measured with SS-OCT and analysed before and after cycloplegia.
The Folk Concept of Nursing in Australia: A Decolonising Conceptual Analysis.
Nurs Philos
January 2025
Ngarruwan Ngadju, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, Australia.
This article presents a conceptual analysis of the contemporary understanding of NURSING in Australia and proposes strategies for decolonisation. Through historical reflection and the lens of cultural safety and critical race theory, it examines some conditions which make up this concept, including "Florence Nightingale-influenced practices," "intellectual practitioners," and "whiteness in nursing." This analysis aims to identify conditions which we take to be necessary for the folk concept of NURSING to be satisfied and which result in negative outcomes.
