We describe a kinetic microbroth method of measuring the growth rate of Aspergillus fumigatus spectrophotometrically. Using this method, growth rates were determined for nine A. fumigatus isolates for which an LD90 value in immunosuppressed CD-1 mice had previously been obtained. Comparison of the growth rates and LD90 values of these isolates suggests that a correlation exists between the two parameters.

Rapid urban growth is a subject of worldwide interest due to environmental problems. Population growth, especially migration from rural to urban areas, leads to land use and land cover (LULCC) changes in urban centres. Therefore, LULCC and urban growth analyses are among the studies that will help decision-makers achieve better sustainable management and planning.

In fluvial environments, the shifting of river channels and bank erosion are frequently caused by both natural and anthropogenic factors. Riverine hazards like bank erosion and course alterations offer severe issues to the riparian villages along the lower basin of the Tista River in India, which substantially influence the livelihoods of inhabitants living there. This research addressed river channel shifting tendency and identified major bank erosion-prone villages along the lower course of the Tista River and challenges to the livelihoods of the riparian people.

Parental well-being is linked to the life chances of adult children in later life. Despite accumulated knowledge on the role of children's education on parental longevity in developed contexts, it remains unknown how children's education may influence the trajectories of parental physical well-being over the aging process, particularly in developing contexts. Using a growth curve model and four-wave data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, this study examines the association between children's education and parental physical functioning trajectories as parents age.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), a highly aggressive form of cancer, is known for its high mortality rate. A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease Domain-like Protein Decysin-1 (ADAMDEC1) can promote the development and metastasis in various tumors by degrading the extracellular matrix. However, its regulatory mechanism in CCA remains unclear.
