Assessing the predictive value of preoperative knee function tests and self-rep...

Background: The ability to identify patients with long-term poor outcomes using clinical and functional information is limited. Identifying prognostic factors to improve long-term outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury can influence and inform targeted interventions for this population. Hypothesis: Preoperative functional tests and patient-reported outcome measures predict postoperative function...

Functional asymmetries after 6 months of ACL reconstruction: a cross‐sectional ...

Functional tests commonly assess athletes' readiness to return to sports after knee surgery. Despite this, there are still more studies on clinical and patient-reported outcomes. The purpose of this study was to determine differences and combinations of various functional performances within and between athletes 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) for the first time (ACLR-I gro...

nvestigation, prospects, and economic scenarios for the use of biochar in small...

This study investigates the production and economic feasibility of biochar for smallholder and family farms in Central Amazonia, with potential implications for other tropical regions. The costs of construction of a prototype mobile kiln and biochar production were evaluated, using small-sized biomass from acai (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) agro-industrial residues as feedstock. The biochar produced was characterise...

Renal Trauma: A 5-Year Retrospective Review from a Level 1 Trauma Center

Introduction: Renal trauma accounts for about 1% to 5% of all trauma patients, the majority of which are due to blunt trauma. Based on the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) classification we can classify renal trauma into five grades of injury, which can help choosing the adequate treatment and anticipate the outcome. Management of renal trauma is evolving to a more conservative approach, av...

Characterization of biochar produced in a mobile handmade kiln from small-sized...

Soil amended with biochar is considered a significant response to climate change, remediation of degraded soils, and agronomic improvements. An artisanal mobile pyrolysis kiln was developed for small-sized biomass inputs. Approximately 190 kg of biochar was produced in 21 carbonisation processes using acai residues (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) as raw material, as they are among the most abundant agro-industrial res...

The case of ODSlocal in Portugal. Results of a monitoring survey

The 2030 Agenda, proposed by the United Nations in 2015, was adopted and adapted by the ODSlocal (the local SDG) Platform. Thought to support municipalities and municipal communities in pursuing local sustainability, ODSlocal is based on a comprehensive and intense mobilisation of local authorities, stakeholders, and local actors while monitoring the progress of Portuguese municipalities concerning various SDG ...
