Machine Learning Algorithm for Estimating Surface PM2.5 in Thailand by Pawan Gupta, Shanshan Zhan, Vikalp Mishra, Aekkapol Aekakkararungroj, Amanda Markert, Sarawut Paibong, Farrukh Chishtie

“…The daily mean PM2.5 (24-hour) values follow day-to-day variability very well (correlation coefficient of 0.98, RMSE = 3.14 µg m−3), showing high value during winter months (November– February) and lower during other seasons. The trained MLA has the potential to reprocess the MERRA2 timeseries for the region, and the bias corrected data can be used in other applications such as long-term trend analysis and health exposure studies. …”

Advances in the Research on Brown Carbon Aerosols: Its Concentrations, Radiative Forcing, and Effects on Climate by Shuai Li, Hua Zhang, Zhili Wang, Yonghang Chen

“…BrC heating decreases precipitation on a global scale, particularly in tropical regions with high convective and precipitation intensity, but different in some regions. (3) Uncertain optical properties of BrC, mixing ratio of radiation-absorbing aerosols in snow, snow grain size and snow coverage lead to higher uncertainties and lower confidence in the simulated distribution and radiative forcing of BrC in snow than BC. …”

Finerenone in the management of diabetes kidney disease by Parijat De, May T Khine, Andrew Frankel, Gabrielle Goldet, Debasish Banerjee, Rosa M Montero, Tahseen A Chowdhury, Damien Fogarty, Janaka Karalliedde, Ritwika Mallik, Dipesh C Patel, Mona Wahba, Peter Winocour, Sagen Zac-Varghese, Stephen Bain, Adnan Sharif, Srikanth Bellary, Indranil Dasgupta

“…Slowing progression of kidney disease and reducing cardiovascular events can be achieved by a number of means including the targeting of blood pressure and the use of specific classes of drugs The use of Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS) blockade is effective in preventing or slowing progression of DKD and reducing cardiovascular events in people with type 2 diabetes, albeit differently according to the stage of DKD. However, emerging therapy such as non-steroidal selective mineralocorticoid antagonists (finerenone) is proven to lower blood pressure and further reduce the risk of progression of DKD and cardiovascular disease in people with type 2 diabetes. …”
