Tree Mortality: Revisited Under Changed Climatic and Silvicultural Conditions
When trees within forests increase their dimension, the limitation of space (and thus resources) can cause competition-based mortality. Thus, growth...

Exploring Patterns of Human Mortality and Aging: A Reliability Theory Viewpoint
AbstractThe most important manifestation of aging is an increased risk of death with advancing age, a mortality pattern characterized by empirical...

Correlation between dietary inflammation and mortality among hyperlipidemics
Background and objectiveAlthough the the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) serves to be one of the reliable indicator for hyperlipidaemia, there is...

Climate-induced tree-mortality pulses are obscured by broad-scale and long-term greening
Vegetation greening has been suggested to be a dominant trend over recent decades, but severe pulses of tree mortality in forests after droughts and...

Compensation effect of mortality is a challenge to substantial lifespan extension of humans
Despite frequent claims regarding radical extensions of human lifespan in the near future, many pragmatic scientists caution against excessive and...

Phenotypic but not genetically predicted heart rate variability associated with all-cause mortality
Low heart rate variability (HRV) has been widely reported as a predictor for increased mortality. However, the molecular mechanisms are poorly...

Self-rated health, epigenetic ageing, and long-term mortality in older Australians
Self-rated health (SRH) is a subjective indicator of overall health based on a single questionnaire item. Previous evidence found that it is a strong...

Habitat and morphological characteristics affect juvenile mortality in five coral reef damselfishes
The abundance and distribution of demersal fishes rely on larvae successfully settling from the pelagic environment to a benthic habitat and their...

Landscape and road features linked to wildlife mortality in the Amazon
Roads impact wildlife around the world; however, dedicated studies are lacking in many biodiverse areas such as the Amazon. Identifying which species...

Lipoprotein (a) and myocardial infarction: impact on long-term mortality
Background and aimsLipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is a genetically regulated lipoprotein particle that is an independent risk factor for coronary...

Association between serum lipid and all-cause mortality in asthmatic populations: a cohort study
BackgroundPresently, the majority of investigations primarily evaluate the association between lipid profiles and asthma. However, few investigations...

Canine mortality in Umbria Region (Central Italy): a population-based analysis
Companion dogs may be valuable sentinels to better understand the environmental determinants of morbidity and mortality in humans. This study aimed...

Road Mortality Report of the Genus Bufo in Northeastern Türkiye
AbstractAmphibians, especially those living near lakes, wetlands, and small water bodies, are the most vulnerable vertebrate group to vehicle...

Deep learning-based prediction of one-year mortality in Finland is an accurate but unfair aging marker
Short-term mortality risk, which is indicative of individual frailty, serves as a marker for aging. Previous age clocks focused on predicting either...

Liver Iron Overload Drives COVID-19 Mortality: a Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Study
Iron overload has been associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 severity and mortality in observational studies, but it remains unclear whether...

Association of blood urea nitrogen with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in hyperlipidemia: NHANES 1999–2018
ObjectiveAlthough blood urea nitrogen (BUN) has a crucial impact on many diseases, its effect on outcomes in patients with hyperlipidemia remains...

Castration reduces mortality and increases resilience in male mice: what is next?
This commentary concerns our recent report that prepubertal castration rescued the shorter lifespan of males, using the first mouse line that...

Recent increase in tree damage and mortality and their spatial dependence on drought intensity in Mediterranean forests
ContextGlobal change is leading to more frequent and intense tree damage and mortality events. Drought-induced tree mortality is occurring worldwide...

Higher Magnesium Depletion Score Increases the Risk of All-cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Hypertension Participants
The magnesium depletion score (MDS) is a novel index utilized for evaluating body magnesium status. The present study intended to explore the...

Deep neural network-estimated age using optical coherence tomography predicts mortality
The concept of biological age has emerged as a measurement that reflects physiological and functional decline with ageing. Here we aimed to develop a...
