FUTURE PREVALENCE OF TYPE 2 DIABETES IN GERMANY: A PROJECTION UNTIL 2040 INCLUDING INCIDENCE TRENDS OBSERVED DURING THE SARS-COV-2 PANDEMIC

Future prevalence of type 2 diabetes in Germany: a projection until 2040 including incidence trends observed during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

IntroductionPrevious studies indicate that the prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) will increase substantially over the coming decades.One projection from 2019 estimated an increase in prevalence in Germany by 54% to 77% (depending on future trends in incidence and mortality) between 2015 and 2040.We aim to update this projection by incorporating r

Salient context-based semantic matching for information retrieval

Abstract Neural networks provide new possibilities to uncover semantic relationships between words by involving contextual information, and further a way to learn the matching pattern from document-query word contextual similarity matrix, which has brought promising results in IR.However, most neural IR methods rely on the conventional word-word ma

Swimming Behavior of Daphnia magna Is Altered by Pesticides of Concern, as Components of Agricultural Surface Water and in Acute Exposures

Pesticides with novel coveralls modes of action including neonicotinoids and anthranilic diamides are increasingly detected in global surface waters.Little is known about how these pesticides of concern interact in mixtures at environmentally relevant concentrations, a common exposure scenario in waterways impacted by pesticide pollution.We examine
