This study evaluated the soil water balance performance of evapotranspiration covers (ET covers) and simulated percolation in the systems using the active region model (ARM). Experiments were conducted to measure water flow processes and water balance components in a bare soil cover and different ET covers. Results showed that vegetation played a critical role in controlling the water balance of the ET covers. In soil profiles of 60-cm depth with and without vegetation cover, the maximum soil water storage capacities were 97.2 mm and 62.8 mm, respectively. The percolation amount in the bare soil was 2.1 times that in the vegetation-covered soil. The ARM simulated percolation more accurately than the continuum model because it considered preferential flow. Numerical simulation results also indicated that using the ET cover system was an effective way of removing water through evanotransoiration, thus reducing nercolation.展开更多

To explore a safe and efficient mode of cowpea production that is fit for climatic characteristics of Hainan, ensure the safety of cowpea supply, minimize the use of pesticides, and control pests in physical means, insect-proof nets are applied in cowpea cultivation. We set 5-mm, 2.5-mm and 1.67-ram insect-proof nets as three treatments and open filed cultivation as CK to explore efficiency of insect-preof net in cowpoa production in terms of insect-proof efficiency, biological characters and commodity properties and yield of cowpea. The results showed that insect-proof cultivation was efficient in controlling pests, especially the 2.5-mm net showed the optimal effect for cowpea production.展开更多

An attempt was made to detect and review every clinical trial and meta-analysis published on treatments relating to disease of the femoral artery but not relating to drug treatment. Disease of the femoral artery in >65 years age group occurs in approximately 20% of the population but symptomatology was present in 40%. In almost all trials the predominant (>90%) indication for treatment was intermittent claudication. In this setting, clinical benefit was limited and did not extend beyond 12 months. Mortality, from co-morbidities was high. The Basil Trial was the only one to examine intervention for critical limb ischemia. The results for Bypass surgery and Percutaneous transarterial balloon angioplasty (PTA) were equivalent. There is little evidence to support the use of PTA or stenting other than in the treatment of patients with critical limb ischemia.展开更多
