Ash species (Fraxinus spp.) in Europe are threatened by the Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis, EAB), an invasive wood boring beetle native to East Asia and currently spreading from European Russia westwards. Based on a high-resolution habitat distribution map (grid cell size: 25 × 25 m) and data on distribution and abundance of Common Ash (Fraxinus excelsior), the most widespread and highl...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of enamel or dentin bonding agent (DBA) and sealant viscosity on sealant microleakage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty extracted human premolars were randomly divided into two equal groups (based on sealant viscosity) and each group was divided into three subgroups of 10 teeth. Group 1 (low viscosity sealant, Seal-Rite, Pulpdent, USA wit...

The EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) for air transport has been in force since 2012. Since 2013, CO2 emissions from flights within the EEA (European Economic Area = EU27 plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) have regulated by European ETS. In July 2021, a first proposal Commission review of current ETS published, as part its ‘Fit 55 package’, which shall then go through legislative proces...

AIM: A new surgical method of non-tension autoplasty by displaced aponeurotic flap for the treatment uncomplicated inguinal hernias has been developed.
 METHODS: Thirty patients were operated on using a autoplasty; comparison group involved 30 which Liechtenstein hernioplasty partially absorbable mesh implant (UltraPro). The effectiveness methods was evaluated clinical data, instrumental r...

Progress in implementing circular solutions European regions has so far been limited. This is partly due to the multifaceted territorial contexts characterizing continent. Ultimately, understanding of dynamics key envisage a successful transition economy (CE). However, CE discussion from regional standpoint still limited and frameworks that can be applied monitor measure potential specific terr...

Abstract Background The objective of this study was to evaluate the interest a parietal prosthesis (Cyclomesh ™) soaked with ropivacaine in management early postoperative pain. Materials and Methods This is randomized, phase III, comparative superiority, double-blind, international multicentre study. 290 patients (October 2019 February 2022) underwent surgery for inguinal hernia, by Liechtenste...

Due to its high strength and biocompatibility, the use of zirconia is recently on the rise, but there are difficulties in bonding compared to other conventional ceramic materials. Since it doesn’t contain glass, it cannot be etched by hydrofluoric acid and tribochemical silica coating is not effective. Therefore, unlike conventional materials, the adhesion with luting cement is weak and the res...

This paper investigates an essential aspect of the entrepreneurial personality: why women’s self-employment rates are consistently lower than those of men. It has three focal points. It discriminates between the preference for self-employment and actual involvement in self-employment using a two (probit) equation model. It makes a systematic distinction between different ways in which gender in...

The investigation of the electronic structure and magnetism for the compound MnB(2) with crystal structure type AlB(2) has been revisited to resolve contradictions between various experimental and theoretical results present in the literature. We find that MnB(2) exhibits an interesting example of a Kübler's covalent magnetism (Williams et al 1981 J. Appl. Phys. 52 2069). The covalent magnetism...
