Epidemiology of injuries from fire, heat and hot substances: global, regional and national morbidity and mortality estimates from the Global Burden of Disease 2017 study by Spencer L James (8673927)

“…At the global level, the age-standardised mortality caused by fire, heat and hot substances significantly declined from 1990 to 2017, but regionally there was variability in age-standardised incidence with some regions experiencing an increase (eg, Southern Latin America) and others experiencing a significant decrease (eg, High-income North America).…”

An efficient failure-resilient mutual exclusion algorithm for distributed systems leveraging a novel zero-message overlay structure by Mouna Rabhi (17086969)

“…The proposed algorithm avoids node disconnection while minimally impacting the load of the logical tree nodes. In addition, for the same architecture, when both tree arity and cardinality are 4, after 250 epochs, the node load has demonstrated minimal variation and remains in close proximity to the original load. …”

Response of cauliflower (<i>Brassica oleracea</i> L.) to nitric oxide application under cadmium stress by Jing Ma (24574)

“…The concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) and Cd accumulation (roots and shoots) increased significantly (P < 0.05) under the increasing levels of Cd in all genotypes of B. oleracea while antioxidant (enzymatic or non-enzymatic) capacity and nutritional status of the plants was decreased with varying levels of Cd in the sand. From all studied genotypes of B. oleracea, Ceilo Blanco and FD-4 was found to be most sensitive species to the Cd stress under the same levels of the Cd in the medium while FD-2 and FD-3 showed more tolerance to the Cd stress compared to all other genotypes of B. oleracea. …”
