The global burden of cancer attributable to risk factors, 2010–19: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 by Christopher J L Murray (18278781)

“…</p><h3>Findings</h3><p dir="ltr">Globally, in 2019, the risk factors included in this analysis accounted for 4·45 million (95% uncertainty interval 4·01–4·94) deaths and 105 million (95·0–116) DALYs for both sexes combined, representing 44·4% (41·3–48·4) of all cancer deaths and 42·0% (39·1–45·6) of all DALYs. There were 2·88 million (2·60–3·18) risk-attributable cancer deaths in males (50·6% [47·8–54·1] of all male cancer deaths) and 1·58 million (1·36–1·84) risk-attributable cancer deaths in females (36·3% [32·5–41·3] of all female cancer deaths). …”

Effect of cycling and thermal control on the storage and dynamics of a 40-L monolithic adsorbed natural gas tank by Prosniewski, Matthew

“…It was found that over the course of 20 cycles, due to the retention of 1.9 kg of non-methane components by the monoliths, the useable volumetric storage dropped 16%, and the amount of gas delivered dropped 10%. A second cycling experiment found that by using thermal control while the system discharged, the mass retention decreased to 0.91 kg, and the useable volumetric storage and delivered mass only dropped 7% and 5%, respectively. …”

Treatment with a Combination of Metformin and 2-Deoxyglucose Upregulates Thrombospondin-1 in Microvascular Endothelial Cells: Implications in Anti-Angiogenic Cancer Therapy by Samson Mathews Samuel (18808246)

“…Assays for cell proliferation, migration and tubulogenesis were also performed. We observed robust up-regulation of anti-angiogenic thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) and increased TSP1-CD36 co-localization with a marked decrease in the levels of phosphorylated vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (pVEGFR2; Y1175) in 2DG (5 mM) exposed cells treated with metformin (2 mM). …”
