We evaluated excess death trajectories across countries with accurate death registration and population age structure data and assessed relationships with vulnerability indicators. Using the Human Mortality Database on 34 countries, excess deaths were calculated for 2020-2023 (to week 29, 2023) using ...
Our approach is simple and is similar in spirit to the approaches used in forensic economics13,14. The key idea is that to the extent that FGM leads to death, this should be captured by increases in age-specific mortality rates. To compute these increases, we constructed a dataset combining...
Climate change will reduce the temperature related death rate in the United Kingdom over the next 70 years, but not the absolute numbers of such deaths, a new analysis has found. A warming climate will reduce more deaths from cold than it will increase those from high temperatures, the ...
The UK has experienced 6 back to back quarters of excess mortaility as of September 2023 (O'Dowd, 2023). Australia recorded a 7% excess death rate (half of which is put down to Covid-19) in the first 5 months of 2023 (Adair, 2023). ...

Glucocorticoids (GCs), such as prednisolone, are widely used to treat inflammatory diseases. Continuously long-term or high dose treatment with GCs is one of the most common causes of secondary osteoporosis and is associated with sarcopenia and increased

Italy, Spain, UK and Brazil enforced high SI measures at least after 3 weeks from the first COVID-19 death. Sweden and the USA did not apply high SI measures for the duration of this study. In Austria, Estonia, Israel, Norway, Cyprus, Georgia, Slovenia and Ukraine, measures of high ...
mortality over the total number of forested pixels using a logistic model with binomial error distribution and time as predictor, modeling the change in the average proportion of forest area subject to canopy mortality (i.e., the mortality rate) over time (see trend line in Supplementary Fig. ...
“the thermal point at which locomotory activity becomes disorganized and the animal loses its ability to escape from conditions that will promptly lead to its death.” From 20 individuals of each species, kept individually in small clear plastic containers, we randomly assigned ten to a control ...
