Harm reduction associated with heated tobacco products: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Pak J Med Sci
January 2025
Professor Khalid S. Khan, MSc. Department of Preventive Medicine and Public Health, University of Granada, Granada, Spain.
Objective: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised studies in humans comparing the outcomes of switching to heated tobacco products (HTPs) versus continuing conventional tobacco smoking by burning.
Methods: We searched the electronic databases which included PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, and Google Scholar from inception to May 2023. Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) in humans comparing HTPs with conventional burnt tobacco products were selected.
A new Digital Harmony Search algorithm for optimizing Pump Scheduling in Water Distribution Networks.
Water Res X
May 2025
Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering, University of Naples Federico II, Via Claudio 21, 80125 Naples, Italy.
Pumps in Water Distribution Networks (WDNs) adequately provide effective pressure where low elevation or high head losses are detected within the system. One of the most effective strategies to ensure economic sustainability is Pump Scheduling (PS), assuring the optimization of pump management and enabling significant energy cost saving. Meta-heuristic algorithms can be applied to Pump Scheduling, given their ability to provide reliable global solutions, further complemented by limited computational efforts.

January 2025
Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, MD 21205, United States.
Background: Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) introduced in childhood national immunization programs lowered vaccine-type invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD), but replacement with non-vaccine-types persisted throughout the PCV10/13 follow-up period. We assessed PCV10/13 impact on pneumococcal meningitis incidence globally.
Methods: The number of cases with serotyped pneumococci detected in cerebrospinal fluid and population denominators were obtained from surveillance sites globally.
Advancements in MEMS Micromirror and Microshutter Arrays for Light Transmission Through a Substrate.
Micromachines (Basel)
January 2025
Nanoscale Glasstec GmbH (NaGt), 34132 Kassel, Germany.
This paper reviews and compares electrostatically actuated MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system) arrays for light modulation and light steering in which transmission through the substrate is required. A comprehensive comparison of the technical achievements of micromirror arrays and microshutter arrays is provided. The main focus of this paper is MEMS micromirror arrays for smart glass in building windows and façades.
