The transition toward sustainable agriculture demands innovative approaches that can simultaneously improve crop productivity, protect natural resources, and reinforce long-term ecosystem resilience. Agroecological practices (AE), including crop diversification, conservation tillage, and integrated pest management, have emerged as essential pillars in building farming systems that balance production goals with ...
Chylous ascites is a serious and rare complication after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Most cases improve with conservative treatment, but substantial morbidity and mortality can be associated.

Methods: Here, we describe Electroencephalography (EEG) signals in humans performing a tactile width discrimination task. The first goal of this study was to describe changes in neural activity occurring during the di...

However, the studies reported so far, apart from being limited in number, do not reflect the current management practices for the end-of-life management of pharmaceuticals. Published work lacks an in-depth analysis in focusing on the pharmaceutical waste in households. The present work focused o...
