Climatic hazards are agents of disaster in terms of what they'll do to human settlements or to the environment. Potentially hazardous atmospheric phenomena include tropical cyclones, thunderstorms, tornadoes, drought, rain, hail, snow, lightning, fog, wind, temperature extremes, pollution, and climati...
i.e. oilseed rape (B. napus), camelina (C. sativa) and pennycress (T. arvense). In addition, the biology of Brassicaceae oilseed crops is introduced, potential hazards are identified and specific risk scenarios are developed for some NGT applications. For the purpose of this...
Using T2D and CHD as our examples, we first created a pooled estimate of the HRs by meta-analyzing all estimates and recalculating cumulative incidence by combining these HRs with country-specific baseline hazards. In general, country-specific cumulative incidences using the meta-analyzed HRs were...
Compared with participants who were consistently inactive throughout adulthood, participants who maintained the highest amount of LTPA in each age period were at lower risks for all-cause, CVD-related, and cancer-related mortality. For example, compared with participants who were consistently inactive,...
Results An illustrative example on the survival of breast cancer patients has shown that the flexible parametric proportional hazards model has almost perfect agreement with the Cox proportional hazards model. However, the large epidemiological data set used here shows clear evidence of non-proportional ...
arecoline testing not only entails hazards but also shows reduced sensitivity. Consequently, the copro-antigen ELISA is an optimal solution in this domain [42,148]. DNA detection in feces and environmental samples (e.g. soil, water, sewage and vegetables) has become increasingly important [123,...
The following sections provide an overview of current NGT applications in several Brassicaceae oilseed crops, i.e. oilseed rape (B. napus), camelina (C. sativa) and pennycress (T. arvense). In addition, the biology of Brassicaceae oilseed crops is introduced, potential hazards are identified and...
The particular mechanisms by which common mutations of CHIP—for example,DNMT3AandTET2—contribute to the progression of leukemia are still not understood, which hinders early diagnosis of CHIP on a gene or variant basis8,10,11,12. In clinical practice, CHIP is diagnosed by the presence of som...

What dietary measures can be taken to reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes? Explain the hazards for children's development of a poor, high-fat diet. List and discuss at least two environmental risks for cancer, and at least two lifestyle risks that may lead to cance...
