The global, regional, and national burden of oesophageal cancer and its attributable risk factors in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global... by Farin Kamangar (63964)

“…In 2017, age-standardised incidence was 2·7 times higher, mortality 2·9 times higher, and DALYs 3·0 times higher in males than in females. In 2017, a substantial proportion of oesophageal cancer DALYs were attributable to known risk factors: tobacco smoking (39·0% [35·5–42·2]), alcohol consumption (33·8% [27·3–39·9]), high BMI (19·5% [6·3–36·0]), a diet low in fruits (19·1% [4·2–34·6]), and use of chewing tobacco (7·5% [5·2–9·6]). …”

“…Although prevalence of smoking had decreased significantly since 1990 among both males (27·5% [26·5–28·5] reduction) and females (37·7% [35·4–39·9] reduction) aged 15 years and older, population growth has led to a significant increase in the total number of smokers from 0·99 billion (0·98–1·00) in 1990. …”

Secrecy Performance of a RIS-Assisted Wireless Network: A Comprehensive Analysis Under Outdated CSI by Tasneem Alshamaseen (22392382)

“…This resilience indicates that the system can reduce channel estimation frequency to reconfigure the RIS, thus decreasing overall system overhead and complexity and improving energy efficiency. Moreover, increasing the number of REs can mitigate CSI aging effects where an SOP level of 3×10⁻⁵ can be achieved with 140 REs at <i>ρ</i>=0.9 in the absence of a transmitter-receiver direct link. …”
