Is It Feasible or Desirable?
During the past decade, advances in device technology (eg, drug-eluting stents), development of safer anticoagulants (eg, bivalirudin), and refinement in procedural techniques have led to a dramatic improvement in the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), despite increasing clinical and anatomic complexity of treated patients.1 As safety and effectiveness have be...

متن کاملSystematic searching for theory to inform systematic reviews: is it feasible? Is it desirable?
BACKGROUND In recognising the potential value of theory in understanding how interventions work comes a challenge - how to make identification of theory less haphazard? OBJECTIVES To explore the feasibility of systematic identification of theory. METHOD We searched PubMed for published reviews (1998-2012) that had explicitly sought to identify theory. Systematic searching may be characteris...
متن کاملIs Explicit Representation of Initiative Desirable?
The TRAINS-96 system does not explicitly represent initiative, yet it is clearly a mixed-initiative system. As we move toward commercializing efforts in discourse systems, it is important to remember that having a system make inferences that could otherwise have been "compiled away" can lead to slow response time. This paper is a statement of need for a taxonomy of domains for various features ...
متن کاملEscalating health care spending: is it desirable or inevitable?
This study analyzes changing trends in U.S. health spending and concludes that although the long-term growth trend has been a good predictor of future spending, periodic differences in the growth trend are important. Of particular concern is the rapid acceleration in health spending beginning in 1998. If left unchecked, the current growth rate will result in almost 24 percent of GDP spent on he...
