The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study is a long-standing effort to report consistent and comprehensive measures of disease burden for the world. In this paper, we describe the methods used to estimate the global burden of stroke for the GBD 2013 study. Pathologic subtypes of stroke are modeled separately for two mutually exclusive and exhaustive categories: (1) ischemic stroke and (2) hemorr...

PURPOSE Thermal behavior of some antidiabetic drugs such as pioglitazone hydrochloride (PTZ), rosiglitazone maleate (RGZ), glibenclamide (GBD) and glimepiride (GMP) has been studied. METHODS Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), derivative thermogravimetry (DTG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) techniques were used to study the thermal behavior of the drugs under investigation. RESULTS T...

In this paper we present a novel method to calculate the gamut boundary of a color printing device using a sparse number of measured values. This method belongs to the SMGBD (Segment Maxima Gamut Boundary Descriptor ) family. At first, we construct an inverse printer model based on a set of printed color patches. This model allows us to find the colorant values that have to be sent to the print...

Total dissolved gas (TDG) is suggested to be one possible explanation for the extensive mortality of endemic fish suffered from bubble disease (GBD). We investigated effects water depth on adult Schitzothorax prenanti susceptibility GBD in TDG supersaturated 11.5 km downstream Dagangshan dam a two-year (2016–2017) live cage study. The probability survival significantly increased at greater dept...

Studies on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) and its risk factors have shown worldwide preponderant role accidents violence in burden disease alcohol consumption as a main factor current epidemiological profile (GBD 2019 Risk Factors Collaborators, 2020; GBD Diseases Injuries 2020). studies Mexico not only confirmed this (Gómez-Dantés et al., 2016), but also enormous human loss entailed by fac...

Social Dominance Orientation, one of the most popular individual differences measures in the study of generalized prejudice, can be understood as having two components: Opposition to Equality (OEQ) and support for Group-Based Dominance (GBD). We consider these components in terms of system justification theory and social identity theory. We find that each component best explains different kinds...

Nuclear receptors activate transcription by recruiting multiple coactivators to the promoters of specific target genes. The functional synergy of the p160 coactivators [steroid receptor coactivator-1, glucocorticoid receptor interacting protein (GRIP1), or the activator for thyroid hormone and retinoid receptors], the histone acetyltransferases cAMP response element binding protein binding prot...

OBJECTIVE To validate the estimates of Global Burden of Disease (GBD) due to congenital anomaly for Europe by comparing infant mortality data collected by EUROCAT registries with the WHO Mortality Database, and by assessing the significance of stillbirths and terminations of pregnancy for fetal anomaly (TOPFA) in the interpretation of infant mortality statistics. DESIGN, SETTING AND OUTCOME M...
