Article Synopsis
- - The text discusses how tall trees maintain consistent sapwood conductance (KLEAF) despite height increases, exploring hypotheses about changes in conduit size and number of sapwood rings.
- - It was found that while the hydraulic diameter (Dh) of tree conduits generally increases with distance from the ring apex, it does not increase with tree height (H).
- - A global dataset revealed that the number of sapwood rings (NSWr) increases with height but decreases with reduced stem growth (ΔH), indicating a complex relationship between tree height, growth, and conductance in the xylem.

Diabetic kidney disease occurs in ∼ 25-40% of patients with type 2 diabetes. Given the high risk of progressive renal function loss and end-stage renal disease, early identification of patients with a renal risk is important. Novel biomarkers may aid in improving renal risk stratification.

Polyethylene (PE) wear and osteolysis is a recognised problem with non-cross linked PE liners and first generation modular cup designs. Wear particles induce osteolysis leading to aseptic loosening. We retrospectively compared the linear PE wear and implant survival and revision rates of the Reflection Cup and the Duraloc 300.
