Soft tissue neck injuries, also referred to as whiplash injuries, which can lead to long term
suffering accounts for more than 60% of the cost of all injuries leading to permanent medical
impairment for the insurance companies, with respect to injuries sustained in vehicle
crashes. These injuries are sustained in all impact directions, however they are most
common in rear impacts. Injury statistics have since the mid-1960s consistently shown that
females are subject to a higher risk of sustaining this type of injury than males, on average ...

M Wevers - arXiv preprint arXiv:1907.08922, 2019
Contemporary debates on filter bubbles and polarization in public and social media

M Woodward - Heart, 2019
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in women and men. Yet
biological and social factors differ between the sexes, while the importance of CVD in
women may be underestimated due to the higher age-specific rates in men and the ...

gender diversity. We developed a novel, data-driven approach to conference ...
