Banning of fetal sex determination and changes in sex ratio in India (2015)
Journal Article
Ahankari, A. S., Myles, P., Tata, L. J., & Fogarty, A. W. (2015). Banning of fetal sex determination and changes in sex ratio in India. The Lancet global health, 3(9), E523-E524. https://doi.org/10.1016/s2214-109x%2815%2900053-4

Sex-specific feticide is considered to be relatively common practice in India, where the male:female sex ratio at livebirth was about 1·10 in 2010–12,1 as opposed to a comparable sex ratio of 1·06 for Asian countries in 2010.2 These changes have occu...

Vaping shadows tobacco control: imperatives for Malaysia (2015)
Journal Article
Ahmadi, K., & Soyiri, I. N. (2017). Vaping shadows tobacco control: imperatives for Malaysia. Journal of Smoking Cessation, 12(1), 43-44. https://doi.org/10.1017/jsc.2015.12

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) have been the subject of numerous debates in the literature. (Bullen et al., 2013; Cressey, 2014; The Lancet, 2013) So much discussion has been on it this year alone to the extent that the word vape, which means ‘...

Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder? (2015)
Journal Article
Ramirez, J. A., Baird, A. J., Coulthard, T. J., & Waddington, J. M. (2015). Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder?. Geophysical research letters, 42(9), 3371-3379. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015gl063469

Bubbling (ebullition) of greenhouse gases, particularly methane, from peatlands has been attributed to environmental forcings, such as changes in atmospheric pressure. However, observations from peat soils suggest that ebullition and environmental fo... Read More about Ebullition of methane from peatlands: does peat act as a signal shredder?.

An efficient approach to the synthesis of novel pyrene-fused azaacenes (2013)
Journal Article
Feng, X., Iwanaga, F., Hu, J. Y., Tomiyasu, H., Nakano, M., Redshaw, C., …Yamato, T. (2013). An efficient approach to the synthesis of novel pyrene-fused azaacenes. Organic Letters, 15(14), 3594-3597. https://doi.org/10.1021/ol401438a

An efficient synthetic approach for functionalization of both the active sites (1,3-) and the K-region (4,5,9,10-) of pyrene was accomplished by bromination and oxidation with considerable yield. These novel pyrene-fused azaacenes were thoroughly inv... Read More about An efficient approach to the synthesis of novel pyrene-fused azaacenes.
