The heterogeneity of mortality burden of lower respiratory infection associated with ambient temperature and its drivers in China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
：: Ambient temperature is linked to an increased risk of lower respiratory infections (LRI) yet the evidence on the population and spatial heterogeneity of LRI mortality burden attributed to non-optimal temperatures and its socioeconomic drivers remain ...

Cause-specific cardiovascular disease mortality attributable to ambient temperature: A time-stratified case-crossover study in Jiangsu province, China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Background: Exposure to non-optimum ambient temperature has been linked to increased risk of total cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality; however, the adverse effects on mortality from specific types of CVD remain less understood.

A case-crossover study of air pollution exposure during pregnancy and the risk of stillbirth in Tehran, Iran

Scientific Reports
The growing fetus is very sensitive to environmental conditions. There is limited and conflicting evidence about the short-term effects of exposure to air pollutants on the pregnancy outcome.

A case of crossover mixed analyses in mathematics education research

Methods in Psychology
Crossover mixed analysis, which integrates qualitative and quantitative traditions, is fruitful for advancing mixed methods research. Employing a pragmatic theoretical perspective, we report a case study investigating the use of crossover mixed analyses ...

Performance of Differential Evolution and Particle Swarm Methods on Some Relatively Harder Multi-modal Benchmark Functions [PDF]

This paper aims at comparing the performance of the Differential Evolution (DE) and the Repulsive Particle Swarm (RPS) methods of global optimization. To this end, some relatively difficult test functions have been chosen.

Entanglement in quantum impurity problems is non perturbative

, 2013
We study the entanglement entropy of a region of length 2L with the remainder of an infinite one dimensional gapless quantum system in the case where the region is centered on a quantum impurity.
