Excessive occupational sitting increases risk of cardiovascular events among working individuals with type 1 diabetes in the prospective Finnish Diabetic Nephropathy Study by Matias Seppälä, Heidi Lukander, Johan Wadén, Marika I. Eriksson, Valma Harjutsalo, Per-Henrik Groop, Lena M. Thorn, FinnDiane Study Group

“…Occupational sitting is increasingly ubiquitous and often constitutes the largest portion of daily sitting time. Our aim was to identify clinical factors associated with excessive occupational sitting in type 1 diabetes and, in a prospective setting, to explore its association with cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality, independent of leisure-time physical activity. …”

Modelling and optimization of well hole cleaning using artificial intelligence techniques by Nageswara Rao Lakkimsetty, Hassan Rashid Ali Al Araimi, G. Kavitha

“…Abstract Ineffective hole cleaning in deviated and horizontal well drilling can lead to issues like stuck pipes, reduced rate of penetration (ROP), and drill bit damage, resulting in increased non-productive time (NPT) and operational costs. Traditional methods for assessing hole cleaning rely on experimental and empirical models that often fail to account for all influencing factors and lack real-time applicability. …”
