    Abstract Background: Biocontrol agents (BCAs) are alternatives to synthetic fungicides with low risk to the environment and human health. Although several studies on the biocontrol of gray mold in vineyards have been performed, it is necessary to improve the usage of BCAs in fields conditions. Therefore, in the present study, BCAs were used both in calendar- (based on four growth stages (GSs), i.e., flowering, pre-bunch closure, veraison, and before harvest) and predictive model-based strategies (only when Botrytis cinerea infection risk was predicted by the model). The BCAs applied during the seasons were selected considering the grapevine GSs. Treatments performed with BCAs were compared with synthetic fungicide treatments and an untreated control. The trials were conducted in three experimental vineyards with four epidemics. To evaluate the level of gray mold control of each treatment, disease severity was assessed at harvest and the presence of latent infection was evaluated.
    Results: The integrative use of the predictive model and BCAs provided satisfactory levels of gray mold control, with gray mold severity levels significantly lower (P < 0.001) than those of the untreated control, which had severity values (<7%) similar to those observed with synthetic fungicides following both calendar and model-based strategies.
    Conclusions: The integrative use of the predictive model and BCAs represents a valid alternative to conventional methods of gray mold control in vineyards, with more than 75% reduction in fungicide usage. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

    Abstract Dormancy represents an investment with its own costs and benefit. Besides the advantage obtained from the avoidance of harsh environments and from the synchronization of life cycles with seasonal changes, an organism could benefit from a temporary stop in growth and reproduction. To test this hypothesis a transgenerational experiment was carried out comparing the life history traits of clonal females of Eucypris virens from resting and non-resting eggs at two different photoperiods: short day length (6:18 L:D), proxy of favorable but unpredictable late winter-spring hydroperiod, and long day length (16:8 L:D) proxy of dry predictable unfavorable season, inducing resting egg production and within-generation plasticity (WGP). Clonal females that were dormancy deprived showed the highest age at first deposition and the lowest fecundity. Dormancy seems to work as a resetting mechanism of reproduction. Transgenerational plasticity (TGP) had a bounce back pattern: the phenotype of F1 generation was influenced by cues experienced in the F0 generation but the effects of F0 exposure were not evident in the F2. TGP might be adaptive when a mother experiences some kind of seasonality or stochasticity producing both resting and nonresting eggs. A positive relationship between the number of resting eggs and the total number of eggs per females suggested the absence of trade-off between dormancy and reproduction. Both WGP and TGP increase the mother long term fitness with important consequences on population dynamics, on the way a species spread throughout space and time and might respond to climate change.

    Abstract Background: Adolescents have an inadequate level of health literacy, particularly regarding sexual and reproductive health and the use of birth control methods. This contributes to a high percentage of unintentional pregnancies and sexual behaviors that endanger the entire population.
    Aim: The purpose of this study is to validate the questionnaire, Sexcontraknow Instrument, in Italian, in order to evaluate the health literacy of adolescents, aged 14 to 19, regarding sexual and reproductive health, particularly on the use of contraceptive methods.
    Methods: This is a quantitative research study that aims to validate a knowledge tool on sexual and reproductive health in the adolescent population.
    Results: The Sexcontraknow Instrument questionnaire has been translated according to the process indicated by the EORTC Quality of Life Group validation criteria. The linguistic validation of the questionnaire in Italian was carried out using the forward-backward translation method. The content validity process was carried out by a group of 9 experts in the area of sexual education addressed to the study population, such as: doctors, midwives, gynecologists, teachers and health assistants. The face validity process, however, was carried out with a sample of convenience made up of 12 students aged 14 to 19 years, homogeneous in the gender.
    Conclusions: The SexContraKnow Instrument questionnaire has been transalated in Italiana and face and content validity has been performed.
    Nursing implications: Having a tool that help evaluate the knowledge of young people, aids the nurse in preparing and making up for shortcomings through proper education, reducing the negative effects of poor literacy.

    Abstract Study design: This is a technique paper describing minimally invasive, navigated, percutaneous pedicle screw fixation of the cervical spine. In addition, we include a retrospective feasibility analysis of our initial experience with 27 patients undergoing this procedure.
    Objective: The purpose of this study is to describe the technique of MIS navigated percutaneous cervical pedicle screw instrumentation and to report our initial experience.
    Methods: This is a retrospective review of 27 patients undergoing MIS navigated percutaneous posterior cervical pedicle screw fixation at 2 institutions. We describe the technique and report the radiographic outcomes and all intraoperative and postoperative complications.
    Results: A total of 27 patients underwent MIS navigated percutaneous pedicle screw fixation. Indications included odontoid fracture, subaxial fracture dislocations and burst fracture, pathological fracture, and degenerative spondylosis. There were no nerve root or vascular injuries. There were no spinal cord injuries. Two screws required repositioning intraoperatively, and 1 patient required reoperation for symptomatic malpositioned screw.
    Conclusions: MIS navigated percutaneous posterior pedicle screw fixation can be performed safely. These constructs are biomechanically superior with neurovascular complication rates comparable to traditional lateral mass screw technique. While the current indications for this technique are relatively limited, the evolution of MIS cervical decompression techniques as well as navigation and robotics will provide an expanded role for percutaneous cervical pedicle screw instrumentation.

    Abstract Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is a rare but serious condition characterized by orthostatic headaches and a variety of neurological symptoms. 1,2 Spontaneous intracranial hypotension should be considered in all patients with new onset, daily, persistent headaches, and orthostatic symptoms. It is typically caused by spontaneous spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. 1,2 Traditional first-line treatments include hydration, bedrest, epidural blood patches, and fibrin glue injections. However, refractory cases often require surgical intervention, especially those caused by a small ventral osteophyte, which is classified as a type 1 leak. 3-5 The small osteophyte causes a tear in the dura of the ventral canal, usually near the cervicothoracic junction. Diagnosis of these leaks is challenging because these small osteophytes can also occur asymptomatically, or patients may have several of them at multiple levels. Typically, dynamic myelography is needed for accurate localization due to the inadequacy of standard imaging. 6 This video details a young patient with refractory spontaneous intracranial hypotension from a type 1 spontaneous CSF leak, treated successfully using a posterior transdural surgical approach with spinal cord mobilization. Our video presentation outlines the surgical technique and provides an overview of this underdiagnosed condition. Our described approach offers direct visualization, suturing of the leak site, and a multilayer repair without the need for spinal fusion. It also avoids the morbidity to the neck, chest, and mediastinal structures that is at risk with lateral or anterior approaches. A combined intradural and extradural repair may enhance the durability of repair for ventral CSF leaks. The patient consented to the procedure. This operative video did not require Institutional Review Board approval as all patient information has been anonymized, ensuring no identifiable information is disclosed. The video is a single case that does not involve interventions or pose risks beyond standard care, adhering to ethical guidelines and institutional policies.
