Comprehensive fertility care has been reduced in many parts of the United States following the U.S. Supreme Court decision in June 2022 in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization case, which eliminated the constitutional right to abortion. Because of this change, there is an increasing need and desire among many for fertility planning as women want to understand their health, including their reproductive health. This commentary outlines the importance of fertility planning, how fertility planning affects fetal and maternal outcomes, and what people need to know about fertility planning. Guidance is offered on the role of nurses in supporting and advocating for individuals in their desire for fertility planning.

The fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a major phytophagous pest that invaded China in late 2018, posing a serious threat to local agricultural production. Therefore, we investigated the effects of maize, soybean, and sweet potato on the growth, development, and reproduction of S. frugiperda under laboratory conditions.

Globally, heavy metal (HM) soil pollution is becoming an increasingly serious concern. Heavy metals in soils pose significant environmental and health risks due to their persistence, toxicity, and potential for bioaccumulation. These metals often originate from anthropogenic activities such as industrial emissions, agricultural practices, and improper waste disposal.

Article Synopsis
- Female physicians are becoming a larger part of the workforce but face significant challenges with family planning due to demanding work hours, limited parental leave, and potential stigma.

How investment in children shape fertility choices of families: Evidence from Pakistan.
PLOS Glob Public Health
December 2024
Research and Development Solutions, Islamabad, Pakistan.
Fertility patterns are transitioning globally in that couples are choosing to have fewer children as they become more affluent, and parents are investing more time and resources in the lives of their children than they can receive back. This change is more established in developed countries and is now being recognized in developing countries. We explored this phenomenon and its implications for family planning in Pakistan, hypothesizing a quantity-quality transition underway.

Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) in agricultural systems is a primary nature-based option for mitigating climate change, improving soil fertility, and ensuring food security. However, the consequences of global warming and increases in carbon inputs on cropland SOC stocks over the last few decades remain largely unknown, particularly in deeper soil layers. Here, by using repeated measurements, we reassess variations in SOC stocks across a 0 to 100 cm soil profile at the same locations in China's upland croplands in 1980 and 2023.
