Trends in prevalence of blindness and distance and near vision impairment over 30 years: an analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study
Published 2020“…Globally, between 1990 and 2020, among adults aged 50 years or older, age-standardised prevalence of blindness decreased by 28·5% (–29·4 to −27·7) and prevalence of mild vision impairment decreased slightly (–0·3%, −0·8 to −0·2), whereas prevalence of moderate and severe vision impairment increased slightly (2·5%, 1·9 to 3·2; insufficient data were available to calculate this statistic for vision impairment from uncorrected presbyopia). …”

Effects of natural organic matter on aggregation kinetics of boron nanoparticles in monovalent and divalent electrolytes
Published 2010“…However, the attachment efficiency kept increasing in the presence of CaCl2 and alginate with the increase in the electrolyte concentration and was greater than unity at >4 mM CaCl2. The destabilization was attributed to bridging of the nanoparticles by the alginate–Ca2+ system. …”

A control algorithm to increase the efficient operation of wind energy conversion systems under extreme wind conditions
Published 2022“…<p dir="ltr">This paper aims to increase the power production of gearless permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based wind energy conversion systems (WECS) in strong (greater than 25 m/s) wind speed regions. In general, most wind turbines cut off when wind speed is over the cut-out rate; as a result, the power generation of the wind farm decreases. …”
