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)

“…Oesophageal cancer caused 9·78 million (9·53–10·03) DALYs, with an age-standardised rate of 120 (117–123) per 100 000 population. Between 1990 and 2017, age-standardised incidence decreased by 22·0% (18·6–25·2), mortality decreased by 29·0% (25·8–32·0), and DALYs decreased by 33·4% (30·4–36·1) globally. …”

The molecular mechanisms of plasticity in crystal forms of theophylline by Liu, Hongji

“…Extensive DFT calculations were performed to model the effects of increasing lattice strains on molecular packing. We discovered that the energy barrier associated with the strain-induced molecular rearrangement would link to the plasticity of THPa, and possibly other simple aromatic compounds. …”

Associating learning technology to sustain the environment through green mobile applications by Haraty, Ramzi A.

“…With “quality education” a major issue for the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, it is a must that we loop together the “quality education” with education per se. It is imperative that we engage the youth in attaining this objective, for it is not enough that we empower them with the tools, we must encourage them to look at the current issues outside the box, through a worldwide view, where the focus nowadays is on the environment, be it in reducing fuel usage, decreasing air and water pollution, and recycling, in brief, being environment friendly. …”
