TL;DR: Non-communicable diseases comprised the greatest fraction of deaths, contributing to 73·4% (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 72·5–74·1) of total deaths in 2017, while communicable, maternal, neonatal, and nutritional causes accounted for 18·6% (17·9–19·6), and injuries 8·0% (7·7–8·2).

TL;DR: This study estimated levels and trends in exposure, attributable deaths, and attributable disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) by age group, sex, year, and location for 84 behavioural, environmental and occupational, and metabolic risks or groups of risks from 1990 to 2017 and explored the relationship between development and risk exposure.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of chalcogenide glasses and the current status of their applications is given, and the possibilities of fabricating active devices, such as fiber amplifiers and lasers, are presented.
Abstract: A review of some properties of chalcogenide glasses and the current status of their applications is given. Techniques to characterize the linear and non-linear properties of these glasses are introduced and used to measure the optical constants of chalcogenide glasses in the form of bulk, thin film and fiber. Different techniques for the fabrication of gratings and waveguides in these glasses are described. Achievable efficiencies of gratings, as well as propagation losses of fabricated waveguides, are presented. The possibilities of fabricating active devices, such as fiber amplifiers and lasers, are presented. Finally, a novel application of chalcogenide glasses, namely all-optical switching for the fabrication of efficient femtosecond switches, is introduced.

TL;DR: This paper considers the popular linear least squares and minimum mean-square-error approaches and proposes new scaled LS (SLS) and relaxed MMSE techniques which require less knowledge of the channel second-order statistics and/or have better performance than the conventional LS and MMSE channel estimators.
Abstract: In this paper, we study the performance of multiple-input multiple-output channel estimation methods using training sequences. We consider the popular linear least squares (LS) and minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) approaches and propose new scaled LS (SLS) and relaxed MMSE techniques which require less knowledge of the channel second-order statistics and/or have better performance than the conventional LS and MMSE channel estimators. The optimal choice of training signals is investigated for the aforementioned techniques. In the case of multiple LS channel estimates, the best linear unbiased estimation (BLUE) scheme for their linear combining is developed and studied.

TL;DR: Tissue engineering is a new and developing option that had been introduced to reduce limitations of bone grafts and improve the healing processes of the bone fractures and defects and may open new insights in the near future.
Abstract: This review analyzes the literature of bone grafts and introduces tissue engineering as a strategy in this field of orthopedic surgery. We evaluated articles concerning bone grafts; analyzed characteristics, advantages, and limitations of the grafts; and provided explanations about bone-tissue engineering technologies. Many bone grafting materials are available to enhance bone healing and regeneration, from bone autografts to graft substitutes; they can be used alone or in combination. Autografts are the gold standard for this purpose, since they provide osteogenic cells, osteoinductive growth factors, and an osteoconductive scaffold, all essential for new bone growth. Autografts carry the limitations of morbidity at the harvesting site and limited availability. Allografts and xenografts carry the risk of disease transmission and rejection. Tissue engineering is a new and developing option that had been introduced to reduce limitations of bone grafts and improve the healing processes of the bone fractures and defects. The combined use of scaffolds, healing promoting factors, together with gene therapy, and, more recently, three-dimensional printing of tissue-engineered constructs may open new insights in the near future.
