This study compares traditional Steam Methane Reforming (SMR) and emerging water electrolysis methods (PEMEC and SOEC) for ammonia production, evaluating their economic viability and CO2 emissions under varying electricity prices and carbon intensities. Results show that PEMEC is most cost-effective at very low electricity prices, SOEC gains competitiveness as prices rise, and SMR is preferable above 0.08 /kWhe, with CO2 emissions depending heavily on electricity carbon intensity; projections indicate SOEC will become highly cost-competitive by 20302040.

This study evaluated ChatGPT-4's ability to generate personalized, evidence-based nutrition recommendations in English, Russian, and Kazakh for Central Asian populations, finding moderate performance in English and Russian but very limited effectiveness in Kazakh due to language limitations. The results underscore the need for customized AI models tailored to underrepresented languages and local cultures to ensure equitable and relevant health solutions for diverse communities.

Objectives: Traditional cardiovascular risk (CVR) stratification does not consider CVR enhancers (CVRE). Women present under-recognized CVRE factors that may lead to arterial stiffness (AS). AS is associated with long-term cardiovascular disease. AS can be determined by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV). In women with low-CVR and a CVRE, our objective was to determine cf-PWV values and AS, and to compare with a control group. Material and Methods: Multicentric cross-sectional study, from 2022 to 2024 in Argentina.
Elsevier, Obesity Pillars, Volume 13, March 2025
Background: Despite extensive efforts to standardize definitions of obesity, clinical practices of diagnosing obesity vary widely. This study examined (1) discrepancies between biometric body mass index (BMI) measures of obesity and documented diagnoses of obesity in patient electronic health records (EHRs) and (2) how these discrepancies vary by patient gender and race and ethnicity from an intersectional lens. Methods: Observational study of 383,380 participants in the National Institutes of Health All of Us Research Program dataset.

Introduction: There are large racial disparities in maternal health that cannot be explained by education, income, or other individual-level risk factors. This cross-sectional study estimated associations between racial inequity in police use of force at the community level and health outcomes of Black and White women. Methods: Birth records were linked to maternal hospital discharge records and municipal police department data for 326,240 births occurring between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2016, to Black and White women in the state of New Jersey.

Background: Population-based penetrance studies of breast cancer gene 1/2 (BRCA1/2) pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) variants in the Eastern Chinese population are currently lacking; thus, we aimed to investigate the penetrance of breast cancer and other malignant tumors among BRCA1/2 P/LP variant carriers using a population-based breast cancer cohort from communities in Eastern China.
