TL;DR: It is shown that to mitigate global water scarcity, increases in IE must be accompanied by robust water accounting and measurements, a cap on extractions, an assessment of uncertainties, the valuation of trade-offs, and a better understanding of the incentives and behavior of irrigators.

TL;DR: There are two pentose pathway reaction sequences in tissues and the classical textbook reaction scheme is present in adipose tissue and is now called the F-type pathway, while a new pathway has been found in liver, photosynthetic and other tissues and is called the L- type pathway.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the high rates of acetoacetate formation in these cells acts as a dynamic "buffer" system for the acetyl coenzyme A (CoA) concentration: that is, acetyl CoA is always available for fatty acid synthesis, cholesterologenesis, chain extension of fatty acids or acetylation of proteins which will be demanded at different stages of the cell cycle.

TL;DR: It is suggested that PGE2 may play a role in the control of CPT II expression in the liver of tumour‐bearing rats and that the emergence of the second, smaller protein may represent a catalytically less active protein that arises in vivo.
