    en.wikipedia.org/.../List_of_causes_of_death_by_rate

    In a small study of 26 decedents, [better source needed] the pandemized COVID-19 and infection-related disease were "major contributors" to patients' death. [12] Such deaths are sometimes evaluated via excess deaths per capita – the COVID-19 pandemic deaths between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2021, are estimated to be ~18.2 million.

  3. Intermittent vacuum therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_Vacuum_Therapy

    The intermittent vacuum therapy (IVT) is a treatment conducted in case of venous and arterial issues as well as in rehabilitation (after sports injuries [1] and vascular complaints). With the aid of normal and low pressure , it should enable to control venous reflux, enhance lymphatic flow [ 2 ] and improve blood flow in periphery and muscles.

  4. List of human disease case fatality rates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_disease_case...

    Human infectious diseases may be characterized by their case fatality rate (CFR), the proportion of people diagnosed with a disease who die from it (cf. mortality rate).It should not be confused with the infection fatality rate (IFR), the estimated proportion of people infected by a disease-causing agent, including asymptomatic and undiagnosed infections, who die from the disease.

  5. Disease ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disease_ecology

    Disease ecology is a sub-discipline of ecology concerned with the mechanisms, patterns, and effects of host-pathogen interactions, particularly those of infectious diseases. [1] For example, it examines how parasites spread through and influence wildlife populations and communities.

  6. Health ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_ecology

    Health ecology (also known as eco-health) is an emerging field that studies the impact of ecosystems on human health. It examines alterations in the biological , physical , social , and economic environments to understand how these changes affect mental and physical human health.

  7. Intraventricular hemorrhage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraventricular_hemorrhage

    The lack of blood flow results in cell death and subsequent breakdown of the blood vessel walls, leading to bleeding. While this bleeding can result in further injury, it is itself a marker for injury that has already occurred. Most intraventricular hemorrhages occur in the first 72 hours after birth. [9]

  8. Ecological death - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecological_death

    Ecological death is the inability of an organism to function in an ecological context, leading to death. [1] This term can be used in many fields of biology to describe any species .

  9. Intermediate disturbance hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_disturbance...

    These proposed relationships lead to the hypothesis that intermediate disturbance levels would be the optimal amount of disorder within an ecosystem. Once K-selected and r-selected species can live in the same region, species richness can reach its maximum. The main difference between both types of species is their growth and reproduction rate.
