Despite high coverage of indoor interventions like Background insecticide-treated nets, mosquito-borne infections persist, partly because of outdoor-biting, early-biting and insecticide-resistant vectors. Push-pull systems, where mosquitoes are repelled from humans and attracted to nearby lethal targets, may constitute effective complementary interventions. : A partially randomized cross-over d...

statement of problem: calcium hydroxide which is commonly used as an intracanal medicament, changes the ph of dentin and periradicular tissues to an alkaline ph. in some clinical situations, endodontic reparative cements like calcium enriched mixture cement are used after calcium hydroxide therapy. however, the alkaline ph may affect the physical properties of this cement. objectives: this stud...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of real time verbal feedback to optimise push arc during over ground manual wheelchair propulsion. 10 healthy non wheelchair users pushed a manual wheelchair for a distance of 25 metres on level paving, initially with no feedback and then with real time verbal feedback aimed at controlling push arc within a range of 85 ̊-100 ̊. The real t...

BACKGROUND Small-bowel capsule endoscopy is a tool used to visualize the small bowel to identify the location of bleeds in obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB). Capsule endoscopy is currently funded in Ontario in cases where there has been a failure to identify a source of bleeding via conventional diagnostic procedures. In Ontario, capsule endoscopy is a diagnostic option for patients whos...

Distributed stochastic optimization, arising in the crossing and integration of traditional distributed computing storage, network science, has advantages high efficiency a low per-iteration computational complexity resolving large-scale optimization problems. This paper concentrates on convex finite-sum problem multi-agent system over unbalanced directed networks. To tackle this an efficient w...

The right management of information is crucial in construction projects and has been studied by many researchers. This paper begins by defining and discussing some information management concepts. In particular, it proposes a reflection about the pull-push model for transferring information and links the resulting ideas to some generic issues of information management, namely information overlo...
