Abstract African ancestry is a significant risk factor for prostate cancer and advanced disease.Yet, genetic studies have largely been conducted outside the context of Sub-Saharan Africa, identifying 278 common risk variants contributing to a multiethnic polygenic risk score, with rare variants focused on a panel of roughly 20 pathogenic genes.Base
COST ES0602: towards a European network on chemical weather forecasting and information systems
The COST ES0602 action provides a forum for benchmarking approaches and practices in data exchange and multi-model capabilities for chemical weather forecasting and near real-time information services in Europe.The action includes approximately 30 participants from 19 countries, and its duration is from 2007 to 2011 (<a href="http://www.chemical
Player detection method based on scale attention and scale equalization algorithm
IntroductionObject detection methods for team ball games players often struggle due to their reliance on dataset scale Door Knobs statistics, resulting in missed detections for players with smaller bounding boxes and reduced accuracy for larger bounding boxes.MethodsThis study introduces a two-fold approach to address these challenges.Firstly, a no
Biological Characteristics, Impacts, and Management of Crenate Broomrape (Orobanche crenata) in Faba Bean (Vicia faba): A Review
Crenate broomrape, Orobanche crenata Forskal belongs to the family Orobanchaceae.It is a root holoparasitic weed devoid of chlorophyll and entirely dependent on host plants for its growth requirement.This parasite considerably infects plant species of the families Leguminosae, Apiaceae, and Asteraceae in highly infested drier and warmer Noodlies ar
Implementation Principles for 30 Km/h Speed Limits and Zones
In the context of the Safe System approach for harm minimisation where fatal and serious injuries are not accepted as inevitable costs of mobility in any transport system, there is an increasing need to consider implementing speed limits within the biological tolerance of road users.The need to implement speed limits lower than Noodlies 40 km/h in
