Abstract A new method is proposed for determining in situ unsaturated hydraulic conductivities from unsaturated infiltration measurements made at several tensions on the same infiltration surface. Wooding's equation for steady‐state unconfined infiltration rates is used in calculating hydraulic cond...

BACKGROUND: Excess mortality quantifies the overall mortality impact of a pandemic. Mortality data have been accessible for many countries in recent decades, but few continuous data have been available for longer periods. OBJECTIVE: To assess the historical dimension of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020...

BACKGROUND: A large discrepancy between physician-diagnosed and self-reported Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) exists. Knowledge regarding incidence and remission rates of self-reported HS is missing, but may help bridge the gap in understanding between these two phenotypes. OBJECTIVES: To determine th...

OBJECT: ) is a major health issue worldwide, including in Switzerland. For high-income countries, little attention has been paid to body height in context of excess weight. The aim of this study is to assess the importance of body height as a co-factor for excess weight in multiple large nationwide ...

The highest incidence rates of gallbladder cancer (GBC) are registered among the populations of South America (Bolivia: 7.6 per 100000 population), Asia (Bangladesh: 5.25 per 100000), and North Africa (Algeria: 2.65 per 100000). Recent studies demonstrate a significant association between GBC, chole...

Recent findings show that expressing factual beliefs and moral beliefs is both influenced by prior exposure to the case at hand, suggesting that truth judgments and moral judgments may rely on similar cognitive processes. However, the empirical evidence so far suggests that this repetition effect is...
