Health economic aspects of childhood excess weight by Onyimadu, O

“…My analyses of CPRD-HES data revealed that children living with overweight and obesity incurred significantly higher direct healthcare costs than their peers with a healthy weight. In comparison to children with healthy weight, those living with overweight generated additional costs of £133.93 and £66.32, on average, in the year preceding and following a BMI measurement, respectively, while children with obesity incurred additional costs of £115.47 and £154.51, on average, during the same periods. …”

Comparison of transport methodologies on near-field pollutant dispersion in urban environments using CFD by Tee, Clarence Wei Tat

“…The two methodologies are validated by simulating the dispersion phenomena for two test cases which largely bear resemblance to urban settings: a three-dimensional street canyon setup and the Mock Urban Setting Test (MUST) field experiment. …”
