Assessing the format and content of journal published and non-journal published rapid review reports: A comparative study

2020

Background As production of rapid reviews (RRs) increases in healthcare, knowing how to efficiently convey RR evidence to various end-users is important given they are often intended to directly inform decision-making. Little is known about how often RRs are produced in the published or unpublished domains, and what and how information is structured. Objectives To compare and contrast report format and content features of journal-published (JP) and non-journal published (NJP) RRs. Methods JP RRs were identified from key databases, and NJP RRs were identified from a grey literature search of 148 RR producing organizations and were sampled proportionate to cluster size by organization and pro…

On the solutions to 1-Laplacian equation with L1 data

2009

AbstractIn the present paper we study the behaviour, as p goes to 1, of the renormalized solutions to the problems(0.1){−div(|∇up|p−2∇up)=finΩ,up=0on∂Ω, where p>1, Ω is a bounded open set of RN (N⩾2) with Lipschitz boundary and f belongs to L1(Ω). We prove that these renormalized solutions pointwise converge, up to “subsequences,” to a function u. With a suitable definition of solution we also prove that u is a solution to a “limit problem.” Moreover we analyze the situation occurring when more regular data f are considered.

On an iterative method for a class of integral equations of the first kind

1987

In this paper, we investigate an iterative method which has been proposed [1] for the numerical solution of a special class of integral equations of the first kind, where one of the essential assumptions is the positivity of the kernel and the given right-hand side. Integral equations of this special type occur in experimental physics, astronomy, medical tomography and other fields where density functions cannot be measured directly, but are related to observable functions via integral equations. In order to take into account the non-negativity of density functions, the proposed iterative scheme was defined in such a way that only non-negative solutions can be approximated. The first part o…

The Hamilton–Jacobi Equation

2001

We already know that canonical transformations are useful for solving mechanical problems. We now want to look for a canonical transformation that transforms the 2N coordinates (q i , p i ) to 2N constant values (Q i , P i ), e.g., to the 2N initial values \((q_{i}^{0},p_{i}^{0})\) at time t = 0. Then the problem would be solved, q = q(q0, p0, t), p = p(q0, p0, t).

Drošības nauda kā drošības līdzeklis

2019

Drošības nauda kā drošības līdzeklis ir sens tiesību instruments, kas nodrošina normālu kriminālprocesa mērķu sasniegšanu gadījumos, kad persona rīkojas neatbilstoši kriminālprocesa izmeklēšanas un tiesvedības interesēm, un neievēro tai ar likumu uzliktos pienākumus. Lai gan drošības nauda kriminālprocesā lielākoties piemērota kā apcietinājuma alternatīva, praksē tā vērtējama kā efektīvs drošības līdzeklis. Praksē, galvenokārt, problemātika iezīmējas drošības naudas piemērošanā, proti, apmēra noteikšanā, kā arī juridisko seku izskaidrošanā drošības naudas iemaksātājam. Tāpat arī Kriminālprocesa likumā noteiktā pienākuma par rakstveida paziņojuma par iemaksātās naudas izcelsmi iesniegšanas n…

Interaction risk with proton pump inhibitors in general practice: significant disagreement between different drug-related information sources.

2006

Aims To compare information on drug–drug interactions (DDIs) reported on two standard drug-related information sources (Summary of Product Characteristics and Drugdex system by Micromedex), by assessing the prevalence and predictors of potential DDI with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in general practice. Methods From the ‘Caserta-1’ Local Health-Service database, 156 general practitioners (GPs) were recruited. From more than 180 000 individuals registered on their lists, we selected patients receiving co-prescription of PPI and medications at interaction risk, according to the Italian Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) of PPI and Drugdex information, during the year 2003. Thereafter, …

PORTRAITS OF RUSSIAN WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS: IDENTIFICATION AND WAYS OF LEADERSHIP

2009

Entrepreneurship has developed in Russia during the past two decades, which is a short time to develop a firm business culture. Women are still a minority among entrepreneurs globally, also in Russia [Verhovskaya, O. and Dorokhina, M. (2008) GEM. Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, Executive Summary, Russia 2007, www.gemconsortium.org, 30.9.2008]. Our study focuses on Russian women entrepreneurship by means of an interview and photographs of 10 women entrepreneurs in the St. Petersburg area. We ask, how do they identify themselves in the current economic situation. Further, we ask if there is a specifically Russian type of women entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial identification. Finally, in …
