An aggressive mosquito net distribution programme has helped Kenya to reduce infant mortality at a rate among the fastest in the world.
An ecologic study was designed to examine breast and prostate cancer mortality at a municipal level (period 1997 2006).
An ecologic study was designed to examine ovarian cancer mortality at a municipal level (period 1997 2006).
… Accordingly, fruitfulness in the long run compensates for transiency and mortality at a smaller scale of occurrence" (Rescher 1996: 102).
An ecological study was designed to examine pleural cancer mortality at a municipal level (8098 Spanish towns) over the period 1997 2006, during which 2146 deaths were registered.
Fish-friendly trash-racks that combine both ecological and technical requirements are a solution to mitigate fish mortality at a low operational cost.
First, a quasi-Poisson regression model, combined with the distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM), was used to estimate the relationship between temperature and mortality at a county scale.
An order of the penalty of 1 refers to future mortality at a constant level, 2 to improvements at a constant rate, and 3 to an accelerating rate.
Objectives: To estimate the impact of malnutrition, nutritional risk and high caloric deficit on mortality at a 60 days follow-up in a general ICU population.
CP was the most toxic to C. volutator of all compounds investigated, causing 50% mortality at a concentration of 5 (95% CI = 4 6) µg CP [kg wet sediment]− 1.
Conclusions: In pregnant rats, estradiol benzoate causes fetal mortality at a pharmacological dose (more than 10 μg/day) and fetoplacental growth retardation via trophoblastic degeneration and destruction of the placental labyrinth even at a physiological dose (1 μg/day).
