The impact of scoliosis surgery on pulmonary function in spinal muscular atrophy: a systematic review by Abduljabber Alhammoud (14152503)

“…Given the available evidence, the following GRADE C recommendations were made: (1) surgery is most often associated with decreases in pulmonary function; (2) the impact of surgery on pulmonary function is variable, but does not improve over pre-operative baseline; (3) surgery may result in a decreased rate of decline in pulmonary function post-operatively. …”

Institutional development and the dowry death curve across states in India by Austin M. Mitchell (14778793)

“…We study why dowry deaths have increased with economic development in some Indian states but have decreased in others. We argue that when economic development is low, traditional institutions rather than state institutions govern behaviour. …”

Life-threatening abdominal compartment syndrome as a complication of supine super mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy, the first case report and literature review by Ibrahim A. khalil (16932498)

“…Although it is a challenging diagnosis and life-threatening condition, morbidity and mortality can be decreased with early detection and drainage of the intra-peritoneal fluid, causing increased abdominal pressure, which is the most important prognostic factor.…”

Mortality and socio-economic outcomes among patients hospitalized for stroke and diabetes in the US: a recent analysis from the National Inpatient Sample by Aya Tabbalat (14150019)

“…In those patients, the mean (SD) age slightly decreased from 70 (13) years to 69 (13) years (p-trend < 0.001). …”

Sustainable energy-water-food nexus integration and optimisation in eco-industrial parks by Jamileh Fouladi (16932549)

Microstructure and Compressive Behavior of Al–Y₂O₃ Nanocomposites Prepared by Microwave-Assisted Mechanical Alloying by Manohar Reddy Mattli (18147568)

“…The mechanical properties of the Al–Y₂O₃ nanocomposites increased as the addition of yttria reached to 1.5 vol. % and thereafter decreased. The microhardness first increased from 38 Hv to 81 Hv, and then decreased to 74 ± 4 Hv for 1.5 vol. % yttria. …”

Global, regional, and national burden of HIV/AIDS, 1990–2021, and forecasts to 2050, for 204 countries and territories: the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 by Austin, Carter

“…Additionally, we introduced two new metrics to our reporting: prevalence of unsuppressed viraemia (PUV), which represents the proportion of the population without a suppressed level of HIV (viral load <1000 copies per mL), and period lifetime probability of HIV acquisition, which quantifies the hypothetical probability of acquiring HIV for a synthetic cohort, a simulated population that is aged from birth to death through the set of age-specific incidence rates of a given time period. FindingsGlobal new HIV infections decreased by 21·9% (95% UI 13·1–28·8) between 2010 and 2021, from 2·11 million (2·02–2·25) in 2010 to 1·65 million (1·48–1·82) in 2021. …”
