The Potential Loss of Life (PLL) is one of significant indexes characterising risk using a quantitative risk assessment (QRA) methodology. Potential life loss (PLL) was defined as probability of a life loss in industry accident in the unit time, i.e. the probability of total fatality in the...
The concept of years of potential life lost (YPLL) involves estimating the average time a person would have lived had he or she not died prematurely. This measure is used to help quantify social and economic loss owing to premature death, and it has been promoted to emphasize specific causes...
It is therefore essential to know the potential clinical and economic benefits of reducing obesity. The objective of this study is to predict the decrease in rates of onset of potential complications associated with obesity and the cost savings after a weight loss of 15% over 10 years in Spain...
Barrier Function of Human Keratinocyte Cultures Grown at the Air-Liquid Interface - ScienceDirect Stratum corneum (SC), the outermost and least permeable layer of skin, is the major barrier to passive transepidermal water loss. In the research described... Vivien,H.W.,Mak,... - 《Journal of...
With a growing body of research associating livestock agriculture with faster global warming, higher health costs and greater land requirements, a drastic shift towards plant-based diets is often suggested as an effective all-round solution. Implicitly, this argument is predicated on the assumption tha...
Mare endometrial fibrosis (endometrosis) is one of the major reasons for equine infertility1,2,3. Endometrosis leads to alterations in endometrial structure and function, causing changes in the uterine environment and early pregnancy loss1,4. It is a degenerative chronic condition of the mare ut...
This calculation is given by(3)DUVOL=log(nu-1)∑DownWi,t2/(nd-1)∑UpWi,t2where nu and nd are the numbers of up and down weeks in the period, respectively. These two measures are both continuous variables and based on the distribution of the firm-specific weekly returns. A higher ...

Our earlier work has shown that genomic risk for schizophrenia converges with early life complications in affecting risk for the disorder and sex-biased neurodevelopmental trajectories. Here, we identify specific genes and potential mechanisms that, in p
