Local gender norms constitute a critical component of the enabling (or disabling) environment for improved agricultural livelihoods - alongside policies, markets, and other institutional dimensions. Yet, they have been largely ignored in agricultural research for development. This viewpoint is based on many years of experience, including a recent major comparative research initiative, GENNOVATE, on how gender norms and agency interact to shape agricultural change at local levels. The evidence suggests that approaches which engage with normative dimensions of agricultural development and challenge underlying structures of inequality, are required to generate lasting gender-equitable development in agriculture and natural resource management.

Ophthalmology Department, College of Medicine, King Faisal University, Alahsa, Saudi Arabia.
Purpose: The corneal epithelium is the outermost layer of the cornea. It plays a vital role in both normal and pathological conditions of the eye surface and serves as a protective layer. This study aimed to evaluate corneal epithelial thickness (ET) and create a normative database of corneal ET for pediatric and adult age groups using MS-39 AS-OCT.

PeerJ
January 2025
Section of Orthodontics and Craniofacial Biology, Department of Dentistry, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, Netherlands.
Aim: To compare three-dimensional (3D) facial morphology of various unilateral cleft subphenotypes at 9-years of age to normative data using a general face template and automatic landmarking. The secondary objective is to compare facial morphology of 9-year-old children with unilateral fusion to differentiation defects.
Methods: 3D facial stereophotogrammetric images of 9-year-old unilateral cleft patients were imported into 3DMedX® for processing.
Gendered Social Norms, Exceptions, and Sanctions: Implications for Maternal, Infant, and Young Child Nutrition in Nigeria.
Curr Dev Nutr
January 2025
UNICEF Nigeria, Abuja, Nigeria.
Background: Nigerian pregnant and lactating women continue to experience high rates of malnutrition and Nigerian women experience long-term discrimination in the allocation and control of productive resources. Nigeria has policies and a governance architecture in place to advance nutrition, but these commitments lack recognition of how gender equity and nutrition are interwoven.
Objective: To address this gap, this study sought to identify and analyze the influence of gender dynamics and gender norms on nutrition and health-related practices in Nigeria.
