Eddy covariance (EC) measurements are often used to validate net ecosystem productivity (NEP) estimated from satellite remote sensing data and biogeochemical models. However, EC measurements represent an integrated flux over their footprint area, which usually differs from respective model grids or remote sensing pixels. Quantifying the uncertainties of scale mismatch associated with gridded flux

Between 15 and 27kyrb2k (thousands of years before 2000CE) during the last glacial, Greenland experienced a prolonged cold stadial phase, interrupted by two short-lived warm interstadials. Greenland ice-core calcium data show two periods, preceding the interstadials, of anomalously high atmospheric dust loading, the origin of which is not well understood. At approximately the same time as the Gree

BACKGROUND: Gout is an inflammatory arthritis manifesting as acute episodes of severe joint pain and swelling, which can progress to chronic tophaceous or chronic erosive gout, or both. Here, we present the most up-to-date global, regional, and national estimates for prevalence and years lived with disability (YLDs) due to gout by sex, age, and location from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries

BACKGROUND: Obesity, assessed by body mass index (BMI), is an established risk factor for 13 cancers. We aimed to identify further potential obesity-related cancers and to quantify their association with BMI relative to that of established obesity-related cancers.METHODS: Using Cox regression models on 4,142,349 individuals in Sweden (mean age 27.1 years at weight measurement), we calculated hazar

IMPORTANCE: Life expectancy is a composite health measure reflecting acute and life-course exposures. Identifying conditions behind disparities in life expectancy can guide policy, planning, and financing to battle the most urgent health problems.OBJECTIVE: To examine the contribution of 33 causes of death to life expectancy disparities, highlighting 2 sets of priority conditions-8 infectious and

Background: In Europe, approximately 291,000 cardiac arrests occur annually. Despite critical care therapy, hospital mortality remains high. This systematic review assessed whether, in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest, any drug therapy, compared to placebo or usual care, improves outcomes. Methods: We searched Medline, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and The Interna

As more and more companies are realizing the importance to integrate sustainability with their economic prosperity development, Triple Bottom Line functions as companies' Polaris to guide them to incorporate "People, Planet" considerations into their "Profit" seeking goal. Corporate social responsibility initiatives are adopted by many companies. Among them, Cause Related M

Version 3 av ecoinvent är den första databasen att erbjuda möjligheten att koppla samman livscykelinventeringar (LCI) utefter olika länkningsalgoritmer. Genom dessa länkningsalgoritmer tar ecoinvent nu fram bakgrundslivscykelinventeringar med både medeldata och långsiktig marginaldata (t.ex. över elmarknader i olika länder). Idealt sett representerar långsiktig marginaldata över elmarknader den ytVersion 3 of the ecoinvent database is the first background database to offer the possibility to link life cycle inventories (LCI) according to different linking algorithms. Using those algorithms, ecoinvent now provides both average and long-term, marginal background LCI data, (e.g. for electricity markets for different countries). Long-term, marginal data for electricity markets ideally represen

Under de senaste 10 åren har ökningen av export från EU av farligt och ”ofarligt” avfall varit betydande. Rapporter visar att en övervägande del av EU:s el-avfall och elektroniska avfall exporteras till Asien och Afrika. ”Ofarligt” avfall, såsom plast och papper, transporteras främst till Asien och i synnerhet till Kina. I dessa länder finns emellertid ofta inte kapaciteten och tekniken att hanter

Importance: Persistent disparities in mortality across countries suggest uneven improvements in living standards and access to life-extending health technologies, as well as context-specific obstacles. Studies have analyzed cross-country inequality in mortality but have not widely contextualized those disparities in terms of developmental progress relative to a frontier representing a level of mor

Background: Various plasma phosphorylated tau species have been shown to be associated with amyloid-β (Aβ) PET and Tau PET in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but whether APOE ε4 affects the interaction between glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and phosphorylated tau (pTau), and whether a three-way interaction exists among APOE ε4, GFAP, and pTau that influences AD progression remain unclear. Method

Background: Procalcitonin (PCT) is a biomarker used to differentiate between viral and bacterial infections, though the underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. This study aimed to identify genetic variants associated with plasma PCT concentrations and explore the associations of genetically predicted PCT with a wide range of disease related traits in a PheWAS. Methods: We conducted GWA

The early Phanerozoic has long been thought to have witnessed a decline in the ocean dissolved silicon inventory, but direct, quantitative investigations of dissolved silicon concentrations are missing. Silicon isotope fractionation by modern siliceous sponges is known to be related to ambient seawater silicon concentrations, opening a potential window onto reconstructions of silicon concentration
