“…Objectives To investigate mortality rates and causes in children and young people with intellectual disabilities.Design Retrospective cohort; individual record linkage between Scotland’s annual pupil census and National Records of Scotland death register.Setting General community.Participants Pupils receiving local authority-funded schooling in Scotland, 2008 to 2013, with an Additional Support Need due to intellectual disabilities, compared with other pupils.Main outcome measures Deaths up to 2015: age of death, age-standardised mortality ratios (age-SMRs); causes of death including cause-specific age-SMRs; avoidable deaths as defined by the UK Office of National Statistics.Results 18 278/947 922 (1.9%) pupils had intellectual disabilities. 106 died over 67 342 person-years (crude mortality rate=157/100 000 person-years), compared with 458 controls over 3 672 224 person-years (crude mortality rate=12/100 000 person-years). …”

Research on Diffusion Patterns of Gas Produced by Energy Storage Lithium Batteries due to Thermal Runaway by LIU Li, SHI Mengzhao, XU Dongyang, TANG Wenbing, HU Yue, JIANG Fengbing

“…The subsequent modeling of cell combustion, combined with experimental data, allows for the accurate correction of the heat release rate curve using a modified dichotomy method. In the numerical simulation stage, the corrected heat release rate curve, along with the large eddy simulation (LES) method, is used to simulate the thermal runaway combustion process of battery modules within containers. …”

Short Report: Estimating Blood Lactate Dynamics from Sweat Lactate and Sweat Rate After High-Intensity Exercise – A Pilot Regression-Based Study by Hattori M, Yashiro K

“…Sweat lactate (SWL) and sweat rate (SWR) have been explored as non-invasive alternatives, but their capacity to estimate BL dynamics after short-term high-intensity exercise remains unclear.Purpose: This pilot study aimed to evaluate whether BL dynamics can be predicted using a regression model based on the time-series patterns of SWL and SWR measured by wearable sensors.Methods: Five healthy male athletes (three sprinters and two endurance runners) performed a 30-second Wingate anaerobic test. …”
