The Association between Zinc and Copper Circulating Levels and Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Adults: A Study of Qatar Biobank Data by Kerkadi, Abdelhamid

“…High Zn/Cu ratio increased the prevalence of low HDL (4.508; p < 0.001) and MetS (5.570; p < 0.01). These findings suggest that high plasma Cu levels are associated with a protective effect on DBP, HDL and MetS and that high plasma Zn/Cu ratio is associated with the risk of having low HDL and MetS.…”

Burden of disease scenarios for 204 countries and territories, 2022–2050: a forecasting analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 by Stein Emil, Vollset

“…In the assessment of alternative future scenarios, the combined effects of the scenarios (Safer Environment, Improved Childhood Nutrition and Vaccination, and Improved Behavioural and Metabolic Risks scenarios) demonstrated an important decrease in the global burden of DALYs in 2050 of 15·4% (13·5–17·5) compared with the reference scenario, with decreases across super-regions ranging from 10·4% (9·7–11·3) in the high-income super-region to 23·9% (20·7–27·3) in north Africa and the Middle East. …”

Trends in the global, regional, and national burden of oral conditions from 1990 to 2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 by Eduardo, Bernabe

“…Increasing counts of prevalent cases and DALYs were noted for all oral conditions but untreated caries of deciduous teeth (no percentage change in prevalence or DALYs) and orofacial clefts (–68·3% [–79·3 to –46·5] decrease in DALYs). There were decreases in both age-standardised prevalence and DALY rate for untreated caries of permanent teeth and edentulism, no change in both for untreated caries of deciduous teeth and severe periodontitis, an increase in the prevalence but no change in the DALY rate for lip and oral cavity cancer, and no change in the prevalence but a decrease in the DALY rate for orofacial clefts. …”

Solar-driven hydrogen production from a water-splitting cycle based on carbon-TiO2 nano-tubes by Almomani F.

“…The C-Ti-NTs were prepared using an alkaline hydrothermal method, characterized using different state of art techniques and tested for the S-DPOH via water splitting. Adding a carbon layer on the surface of TiO2 nano-tube with a thickness of ~1 nm reduced the bandgap of the C-Ti-NTs 0.88 eV, improved the quantum efficiency under UV light to 100%, enhanced the absorption capacity under VIS-light and extremely suppressed the charge recombination. …”
