Global burden and strength of evidence for 88 risk factors in 204 countries and 811 subnational locations, 1990–2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2... by Michael, Brauer

“…For younger demographics (ie, those aged 0–4 years and 5–14 years), risks such as low birthweight and short gestation and unsafe water, sanitation, and handwashing (WaSH) were among the leading risk factors, while for older age groups, metabolic risks such as high SBP, high body-mass index (BMI), high FPG, and high LDL cholesterol had a greater impact. From 2000 to 2021, there was an observable shift in global health challenges, marked by a decline in the number of all-age DALYs broadly attributable to behavioural risks (decrease of 20·7% [13·9–27·7]) and environmental and occupational risks (decrease of 22·0% [15·5–28·8]), coupled with a 49·4% (42·3–56·9) increase in DALYs attributable to metabolic risks, all reflecting ageing populations and changing lifestyles on a global scale. …”

Investigating the impact of remittance outflows and oil price on economic growth in Gulf Cooperation Council countries by Mouyad Alsamara (17823668)

“…<p>Most existing studies have focused on examining the impact of labor remittance outflows on economic growth in the receiving countries, with limited attention given to the sending countries. This study utilizes the nonlinear augmented mean group method to explore the possible asymmetric impact of remittance outflows on economic growth in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries for the period of 2000–2019. …”

Distribution and predictors of emergency department charges by Dimassi, Hani

“…Results: Findings revealed that the professional fee (40.9 %) followed by facility fee (26.1 %) accounted for the majority of the ED charges. While greater than 80 % of visit charges went to physician and facility fee for low acuity cases, these contributed to only 52 and 54 % of the high acuity presentations where ancillary services and solutions’ contribution to the total charges increased. …”

Communication Network for Ultrasonic Acoustic Water Leakage Detectors by Awwad, Ameen

“…The authors also studied the potential of using the recent Terahertz imaging technology for the same application. Acoustic detectors were found the most suitable technology for the atmosphere in UAE, where the levels of humidity and, consequently, soil moisture are high, because both of GPRs and IR cameras operational capability to detect leaks tend to decrease sharply as soil moisture increases. …”
