Carbon dioxide insufflation during ERCP for reduction of postprocedure pain by Azar, Riad

“…Background: Abdominal pain after ERCP is common, and although it is frequently nonspecific and self-limited, it may provoke concern for complications and thus distress both patients and physicians. Carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation during ERCP may reduce abdominal distension in comparison to insufflation of air, resulting in less pain. …”

Transforming recycled construction waste fines into carbon sink material via accelerated mechanochemical carbonation: A novel approach to CO₂ sequestration by Marwa Saadeh (22282489)

“…MCC activation reduced crystallite size and promoted depolymerization of the silica chain structure of CDW, CW, and EW, enhancing its carbonation reactivity. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis detected significant shifts in peaks corresponding to carbonate and silicate groups, confirming the chemical transformations associated with carbonation. …”

Epidemiology of injuries from fire, heat and hot substances: global, regional and national morbidity and mortality estimates from the Global Burden of Disease 2017 study by Spencer L James (8673927)

“…At the global level, the age-standardised mortality caused by fire, heat and hot substances significantly declined from 1990 to 2017, but regionally there was variability in age-standardised incidence with some regions experiencing an increase (eg, Southern Latin America) and others experiencing a significant decrease (eg, High-income North America).…”

Strengthening of thin reinforced concrete slabs with CFRP laminates by Hawileh, Rami
