PURPOSE To investigate the occurrence and types of motor vehicle accident eye trauma in north Israel. METHODS The records between the years 2007-2011 of the Ophthalmology Emergency Room of one medical center were searched. Eye injuries due to motor vehicle accidents were classified according to type, severity of injury and demographic data of patients. RESULTS Nearly five percents of ER pre...

Abstract This paper estimates the marginal accident externality of driving in Central London by exploiting variation traffic flow induced Congestion Charge Zone using an instrumental variable approach. The charge attributed to a 9.4% reduction flow, which resulted less than proportional 6.0% and 7.6% decrease accidents slight injuries, 6.5% increase serious injuries/fatalities. Our preferred in...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The study aimed to assess the frequency of head and face injuries in motorcyclists who had an accident and to find out the relationship between helmet use and frequency of these injuries. METHODS: A cross-sectional study with multi-stage sampling method provides data on the injured motorcyclists with road accidents. Data came from a registration form which has documented inf...

One of the greatest challenges in today's world is traffic accidents. It results fatalities, accidents, and property damage. Making a model that can accurately predict accidents difficult. The objective this project to create classification system for injuries based on set influential factors, including environment, vehicle speed, driver behaviour, etc. Using data related several algorithms are...

Ülkelerin ekonomilerine, milli varlıklarına zarar verip insanların yaşamlarına sebep olan trafik kazaları, ülkelerin en büyük sorunlarından biridir. Dolayısıyla, kazaların meydana gelmesine katkıda bulunan faktörlerin araştırılması ve doğru bir kaza şiddeti tahmin modelinin geliştirilmesi kritik öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, 2011-2021 yılları arasında Teksas'ın Austin, Dallas San Antonio şehirl...

Many victims in traffic accidents do not receive optimal care due to the fact that the severity of their injuries is not realized early on. Triage protocols are based on physiological and anatomical criteria and subsequently on mechanisms of injury in order to reduce undertriage. In this study the value of accident characteristics for field triage is evaluated by developing an on scene injury s...
