Patterns of lung cancer mortality in Russia over a 16-year period, 2000-2015

open access: yesTobacco Induced Diseases, 2018
Background Tobacco smoking has been historically high in Russian men, and steadily increased in Russian women following the Soviet Union's collapse. Much has been published about alcohol consumption and alcohol-related mortality in Russia, however, few ...

Toward a Rational Design of Conjugated Copolymers with Oxygenated Side Chains for Boosting Thermoelectric Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The molecular design strategy that integrates both side chain and backbone engineering in diketopyrrolopyrrole‐based conjugated polymers to identify the optimal balance between doping efficiency and microstructural order is demonstrated. Comprehensive spectroscopic, electrochemical, morphological, and structural characterizations reveal that the ...

Degradation Pathways of Silicon‐Based Anodes in Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Silicon‐based anodes undergo degradation through five primary pathways: (1) mechanical and structural deterioration of the active material, (2) loss of electrode integrity and electrical contact, (3) mechanical instability of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), characterized by repetitive fracture and deformation, (4) chemical instability of the ...

Assessing Agricultural Green Total Factor Productivity in Latin America

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agricultural sector in Latin America plays a vital role in ensuring food security while impacting the environment. However, there remains a lack of analysis regarding the inputs responsible for pollution within its sub‐technologies. Hence, this article aims to assess agricultural green total factor productivity (TFP) through a novel ...

Outrigger Systems to Mitigate Disproportionate Collapse in Building Structures

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2016
AbstractOutrigger systems are often used to transfer lateral forces to the foundation. They are particularly designed to control drift in tall buildings due to wind and seismic forces. Progressive collapse resistant design focusses on reducing the risk of the disproportionate collapse associated with the loss of primary load-carrying elements.

How does the Kids SIPsmartER program impact the sugar‐sweetened beverage intake of students: An investigation beyond total treatment effect in randomized controlled trial

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study develops and empirically estimates a structural framework to decompose the causal pathways of multilevel behavioral interventions targeting adolescent health behaviors. We apply this framework to the Kids SIPsmartER (KSS) program, a 6‐month, school‐based intervention evaluated through a clustered randomized controlled trial in rural
