The Role of Integrated Nutrient Management System for Improving Crop Yield and Enhancing Soil Fertility under Small Holder Farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Review Article by Geremew Biramo in Modern Concepts & Developments in Agronomy

 

Fertilizer usage plays a major role in the universal need to increase food production to meet the demands of the growing world population. Fertilizer application resulted in marked crop yield increases, which for most crops were more than hundred. The extent to which fertilizers are used still differs considerably between various regions of the world. Mostly in Ethiopia Urea and DAP are the only fertilizers that are used in agricultural productivity. But using balanced fertilizers has an impact on plant growth and physicochemical properties of soil. Due to the continuous decrease in organic matter and nutrient content of the soil, the importance of integrated nutrient management for efficient utilization of nutrient resources and for long-term maintenance of soil fertility has been indicated. Therefore, the aim of this review was to review the role of integrated nutrient management for improving crop yield and enhancing soil fertility under small holder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa, especially in Ethiopia and recommend the appropriate approaches for enhancing soil fertility and increasing crop yield for small holder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa, especially in Ethiopia. So, the results of this review showed that, the integrated application of organic and inorganic fertilizers improve productivity of crops as well as the fertility status of the soil. Nevertheless, though ISFM is the notably preferred option in replenishing soil fertility and enhancing productivity, it is not yet widely taken up by farmers. The reasons for this are many, which include access or availability of inputs, use of organic resources for other purposes in place of soil fertility, nutrient balancing, collecting, transporting and management of organic inputs and economic returns of investments. These are the key challenges of adoption in the scaling up of such alternative soil fertility management practices to millions of small-scale farmers in the country. There is a need, therefore, for research and extension to sort out issues of adoption and scaling up of the available options. In order to address soil fertility problems, potential synergies can be gained by combining technical options with farmers’ knowledge as well as training of farmers and development agent on new soil fertility management approaches.

Di ANA Technique for lipo marking. Adaptable Natural Abdominal Distraction. (For its' acronym in Spanish): Crimson Publishers

Di ANA Technique for lipo marking. Adaptable Natural Abdominal Distraction. (For its' acronym in Spanish) by  Benavides Adan in Crimson Publishers: Surgical Medicine Open Access Journal: Surgery Journal Impact Factor

The discovery of liposuction surges in need of trying to find solutions to lipodystrophies, avoiding extensive scars. In 1921 Dujarrier was awarded for being the first to do liposuction. The innovators of the concept of liposuction, as well as the material for carrying it out, were the surgeons Schrudde, Meyer, Arpad and Giorgio Fischer in 1974. In 1977, Illouz adapted a uterine Karman cannula adding suction to the practice of the process. In 1985 the introduction of syringe-assisted liposuction popularized by Fournier, partly simplified the intervention [1,2].

Augmenter of Liver Regeneration in ROS-induced Pathophysiological Conditions-Crimson Publishers

Augmenter of Liver Regeneration in ROS-induced Pathophysiological Conditions by Sudhir Kumar in-Open Access Research in Anatomy: Crimson Publishers_Annals of Anatomy

 

Augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR), also described as hepatopoietin (HPO) and hepatic stimulator substance or hepatic regenerative stimulation substance (HSS), is representative member of ERV protein family with flavin-linked sulfhydryl oxidase activity, that facilitate the formation of disulfide bonds in reduced protein substrates [1]. Growing numbers of evidence demonstrate the involvement of ALR in maintaining cellular redox communication under various pathophysiological conditions [2-7]. Understanding redox regulation and precise assessment of metabolic/oxidative stress are key to monitor diverse range of pathophysiological events, since a large number of cellular functions and dysfunctions are, either directly or indirectly, triggered in response to redox signals
