The aim of our work is to determine the influence that socio-economic and demographic factors have had on crimes taken place during period 2010–2018 in communes Metropolitan Region Chile, as well existence possible spatial or temporal effects. We address 12 kinds crime we grouped into two main types: against people property. Our interest focuses people, using property an additional covariate or...

In 2010, less than 3% of the children who died were medically certified.1 low and middle income countries, most deaths do not occur in health facilities but rather community, contributing to an extraordinary gap vital statistics.2 This is likely be more pronounced humanitarian settings where are prone elevated mortality, particularly contexts forced displacement.3

OBJECTIVE The goal of this article is to discuss and show the common complications of biliary and gastrointestinal stents as depicted by MDCT in cancer patients. Major complications include stent misplacement or displacement, bleeding, obstruction, perforation, stent fracture or collapse, and infection. This topic encompasses several relevant issues, including interpretative difficulties, thera...

Although tracheostomy tube displacement is uncommon, the management is often difficult and the associated mortality is high. It is important to ensure that the airway is secure and then either replace or reposition the tracheostomy tube. This case report describes the use of an Aintree intubation catheter (C-CAE-19.0-56-AIC, William Cook Europe, Denmark) mounted on an intubating fibre-optic bro...

The present study aimed to investigate how the heat-related increase in deaths in summer and the extent of mortality displacement depend on influenza and other categories of mortality in the previous winter, which when low leaves a greater pool of susceptible individuals. Mortality data from Stockholm, Sweden, from 1990-2002 were stratified into a summer period and a winter period. A Poisson re...

The Walter A Rosenblith New Investigator Award provided funding to explore new statistical approaches for air pollution research. This report reviews and summarizes the methodologic and substantive contributions to time-series analyses of air pollution and mortality that this award made possible. The review is organized according to the following general topics: (1) semiparametric methods for t...

BACKGROUND In the past three decades, Tehran has experienced warmer summer so we need to determine heat-related mortality to establish appropriate public health activities during hot summers. The aim of the present study was to detect heat waves during the last decades and then determine excess mortality in immediate and lagged times. METHODS An ecological study based on time-series model was...

Ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) is a common complication of coronary disease that doubles postinfarction mortality. The main mechanism of IMR is left ventricular remodeling, which results in dilation of the mitral ring and displacement of the papillary muscles (PM). Reductive annuloplasty, the standard reparative technique used, leads to a large percentage of recurrences; hence, other techn...

This paper examines whether there is a causal relationship from job displacement to all–cause mortality. The hypothesis is tested for all employees who lost their job due to a plant closure in Sweden in 1987 and 1988. The control group is a random sample of all employees who did not experience a plant closure during the mid 1980s. Apart from variables commonly available in such studies (age, se...

Overlap in the form of sexual signals such as pheromones raises the possibility of reproductive interference by invasive species on similar, yet naive native species. Here, we test the potential for reproductive interference through heterospecific mate attraction and subsequent predation of males by females of a sexually cannibalistic invasive praying mantis. Miomantis caffra is invasive in New...
