Scoresysteme in der Notfallmedizin?
1994
The primary goals of scoring in emergency medicine are grading of the severity of the patient's condition, measurement of diagnostic and therapeutic efforts, forecasting the outcome, and support in decision making on triage and therapy. Scores can also be used as tools for measuring efficacy and controlling quality. There has been less experience with use of scoring systems to estimate quality of life. The ability to make a prognosis in an individual case is the most critical point; a score may support decisions on therapy in very specific situations only. Scores for use in emergency medicine should be based on physiological parameters, universally applicable and suitable for use throughout…
Determinants of helicopter benefit for the transport of severe trauma patients
2013
Recently, Galvagno commented on the paper of Andruszkow and colleagues and summarized the studies using multivariate logistic regression to compare helicopter transport (HT) versus ground transport of trauma patients [1,2]. The authors did not mention our analysis of 1,958 trauma patients (26% transported by HT) specifically performed to investigate the influence of the mode of transport from the database of the French Intensive care Recorded in Severe Trauma study [3,4]. Compared with ground transport, HT patients were more intensively treated in the prehospital phase. The need for emergency surgical procedures and overall head surgical procedures until discharge from hospital were higher …
Third-harmonic generation in optical microfibers
2012
We explain the relatively easy, wideband, THG conversion that we observe experimentally in silica glass microfibers by the tapering geometry. As a challenging perspective, we compare THG effective efficiencies in silica and tellurite glasses.
Scanning Tunneling Spectroscope Use in Electrocatalysis Testing
2010
Published version of an article from the journal: Materials (1996-1944). Also available from publisher: http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/ma3063675 The relationship between the electrocatalytic properties of an electrode and its ability to transfer electrons between the electrode and a metallic tip in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is investigated. The alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER) was used as a test reaction with four different metallic glasses, Ni78Si8B14, Ni70Mo20Si5B5, Ni58Co20Si10B12, and Ni25Co50Si15B10, as electrodes. The electrocatalytic properties of the electrodes were determined. The electrode surfaces were then investigated with an STM. A clear relationship between the…
Development of economic MeV-ion microbeam technology at Chiang Mai University
2017
Developing high technologies but in economic manners is necessary and also feasible for developing countries. At Chiang Mai University, Thailand, we have developed MeV-ion microbeam technology based on a 1.7-MV Tandetron tandem accelerator with our limited resources in a cost-effective manner. Instead of using expensive and technically complex electrostatic or magnetic quadrupole focusing lens systems, we have developed cheap MeV-ion microbeams using programmed L-shaped blade aperture and capillary techniques for MeV ion beam lithography or writing and mapping. The programmed L-shaped blade micro-aperture system consists of a pair of L-shaped movable aperture pieces which are controlled by …
Properties of EO Active Molecular Glasses Based on Indandione and Azobenzene Chromophores
2012
Continuing previous research of EO active materials we have focused our attention on compounds employing two types of core nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores – indandione and azobenzene . Coupling of them with bulky triphenyl, pentafluorophenylmethoxy ester, benzyloxy ester molecular fragments, as anti-crystallization agents allows us to obtain amorphous materials for potential NLO applications.
Simple Rules for Complex Near-Glass-Transition Phenomena in Medium-Sized Schiff Bases
2022
Glass-forming ability is one of the most desired properties of organic compounds dedicated to optoelectronic applications. Therefore, finding general structure–property relationships and other rules governing vitrification and related near-glass-transition phenomena is a burning issue for numerous compound families, such as Schiff bases. Hence, we employ differential scanning calorimetry, broadband dielectric spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and quantum density functional theory calculations to investigate near-glass-transition phenomena, as well as ambient- and high-pressure molecular dynamics for two structurally related Schiff bases belonging to the family of glycine imino esters. Firstly…

Evaluation of radiological findings with COVID-19 lung lesions in Latvia in the view of artificial intelligence and radiologist
2022
Pēc Pasaules Veselības organizācijas datiem kopš pandēmijas sākuma kopējais ar Covid-19 saslimušo cilvēku skaits pārsniedz 500 miljonus. Mākslīgais intelekts (MI) paver plašas iespējas Covid-19 infekcijas izraisīto plaušu bojājumu diagnostikā, kas var uzlabot un atvieglojot radiologa darbu veicinot gan izmeklējuma specifitātes, gan sensitivitātes izvērtēšanas iespējas. Šī pētījuma galvenais mērķis bija salīdzināt MI un radiologa atradnes precizitāti Covid-19 radītā plaušu bojājuma izvērtēšanā un noteikt interpretācijas ierobežojumus un priekšrocības klīniskā kontekstā. Savukārt darba uzdevumi bija iepazīties un apkopot datus ar jaunāko literatūru par MI pielietošanas iespējām medicīnā. Apko…
