“…Global age-standardised incidence rates of tracheal, bronchus, and lung cancer decreased by 7·4% (−16·8 to 1·6) and age-standardised incidence rates of larynx cancer decreased by 3·0% (−10·5 to 5·0) in males over the past decade; however, during the same period, age-standardised incidence rates in females increased by 0·9% (−8·2 to 10·2) for tracheal, bronchus, and lung cancer and decreased by 0·5% (−8·4 to 8·1) for larynx cancer. …”

Composite hydrogels from carrageenan-cl-carboxymethyl chitosan–PVA incorporated ZiF-8 as dressing material for wound healing applications by Tooba Yasin (19131382)

“…The biocompatibility of the composite hydrogels has been evaluated using fibroblast cell lines (<i>3T3</i>) after different time intervals (24–72 h), and it was found that increasing ZiF-8 caused the mature and spread cell morphology with increasing cell viability and proliferation under controlled in vitro conditions. …”

The global, regional, and national burden of colorectal cancer and its attributable risk factors in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global B... by Saeid Safiri (3713035)

“…There was a non-linear association between the Socio-demographic Index and the Healthcare Access and Quality Index and age-standardised DALY rates. In 2017, the three largest contributors to DALYs at the global level, for both sexes, were diet low in calcium (20·5% [12·9–28·9]), alcohol use (15·2% [12·1–18·3]), and diet low in milk (14·3% [5·1–24·8]).…”

Biochar from food waste: a sustainable amendment to reduce water stress and improve the growth of chickpea plants by Snigdhendubala Pradhan (9872262)

“…Two biochar application rates improved soil quality by increasing soil porosity from 49.3 to ≥ 53.4%, more than doubling cation exchange capacity to ≥ 21.1 cmolc.kg−1, providing a small reduction in bulk density of approximately 10% and decreasing electrical conductivity of the extract by at least 40% in comparison to control condition. …”
