Trends and levels of the global, regional, and national burden of appendicitis between 1990 and 2021: findings from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 by Letourneau, Ian D

“…Although the global age-standardised incidence rate of appendicitis has steadily decreased between 1990 and 2021, almost half of GBD regions saw an increase of greater than 10% in their age-standardised incidence rates. …”

NADPH-derived ROS generation drives fibrosis and endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition in systemic sclerosis: Potential cross talk with circulating miRNAs by Posadino, Anna Maria

“…Sera from SSc patients showed significant changes in the expression of a set of fibrosis/EndMT-associated microRNAs (miRNA), including miR-21, miR-92a, miR-24, miR-27b, miR-125b, miR-29c, and miR-181b, which resulted significantly upregulated as compared to healthy donors sera. …”

Repositioning of the global epicentre of non-optimal cholesterol by Taddei, Cristina

“…However, the trends of HDL and non-HDL cholesterol levels over time have not been previously reported in a global analysis. Here we pooled 1,127 population-based studies that measured blood lipids in 102.6 million individuals aged 18 years and older to estimate trends from 1980 to 2018 in mean total, non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels for 200 countries. …”

Vertical zonation and functional diversity of fish assemblages revealed by ROV videos at oil platforms in The Gulf by Ben-Hamadou, Radhouan

“…These results suggest that the vertical zonation pattern does not change, or only changes slightly, on a daily basis. The mean centers of mass of the most abundant fish species did not overlap, likely due to potential competition or niche differences. …”

The Effects of Class IV Hemorrhagic Hypotensive Shock and Its Resuscitation with Fluids and Adjuvant Vasopressors or Cellular Energy Replenishment on the Splanchnic Microcirculatio... by Zakaria, El Rasheid

“…In all four groups, class IV hemorrhagic shock remarkably decreased hemoglobin, hematocrit and produced a metabolic acidosis characterized by low pH, PCO2, HCO3, TCO2 and an increase in the base deficit as compared with the baseline pre-hemorrhage levels. …”

Effect of the length of silicon nano-dot/wire on band gap by Hassan, Walid M.I.

“…We will report on the role of the length of silicon nanowire (SNW) in determining the band gap of a structure. We find that the band gap decreases with SNW length for the same diameter and approaches the band gap for an ideal infinitely long SNW. …”

Combined influence of temperature and flow rate of feeds on the performance of forward osmosis by Hawari, Alaa H.

“…It was also found that when increasing the draw solution (DS) temperature from 20 °C to 26 °C the flux increased linearly and then started decreasing when temperature increased over 26 °C due to the development of a temperature gradient. …”

The impact of PV generation and load types on the impedance relays during both balanced and unbalanced faults by Kamel, Rashad M.

“…When single line to ground fault occurs at the PV bus (far from relay location), the dynamic loads increase the relay impedance, while the PV plant decreases the relay impedance. When a single phase to ground fault occurs at the relay bus (load bus), the dynamic load decreases the relay impedance, and the PV plant increases it. …”

Correlated decay of triplet excitations in the shastry-sutherland compound SrCu2 (BO3)2 by Zayed, M.E.

“…The temperature dependence of the gapped triplet excitations (triplons) in the 2D Shastry-Sutherland quantum magnet SrCu2(BO3)2 is studied by means of inelastic neutron scattering. The excitation amplitude rapidly decreases as a function of temperature, while the integrated spectral weight can be explained by an isolated dimer model up to 10 K. …”
