Hospital cost is reduced by motorcycle helmet use.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to identify the impact of motorcycle helmet use on patient outcomes and cost of hospitalization, in a state with a mandatory helmet law. METHODS Patients admitted after motorcycle crashes from July 1996 to October 2000 were reviewed, including demographics, Injury Severity Score, length of stay, injuries, outcome, helmet use, hospital cost data, and in...
متن کاملDoes non-standard work mean non-standard health? Exploring links between non-standard work schedules, health behavior, and well-being
The last century has seen dramatic shifts in population work circumstances, leading to an increasing normalization of non-standard work schedules (NSWSs), defined as non-daytime, irregular hours. An ever-growing body of evidence links NSWSs to a host of non-communicable chronic conditions; yet, these associations primarily concentrate on the physiologic mechanisms created by circadian disruptio...
متن کاملHelmet use and motorcycle fatalities in Taiwan.
Motorcycle deaths accounted for more than half of total traffic fatalities in Taiwan in 2002. This study uses the police-reported crash data from Taiwan between 1999 and 2001 to estimate the effectiveness of helmets, simultaneously taking into account of sample selection bias. Sample selection arises because helmet usage will affect the probability of death or injury, which in turn influences w...
متن کاملStandard and non-standard primordial neutrinos
The standard cosmological model predicts the existence of a cosmic neutrino background (CνB) with a present density of about nν + nν̄ ≃ 110 cm per flavour, which affects big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN), cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies, and the evolution of large scale structures (LSS). We report on a precision calculation of the CνB properties including the modification introduced ...
متن کاملStandard and non-standard neutrino properties
I review the interpretation of solar and atmospheric neutrino data in terms neutrino oscillations and describe some ways to account for the required neutrino masses and mixing angles from first principles, both within topdown and bottom-up approaches. I also discuss non-oscillation phenomena such as ββ0ν which may probe the absolute scale of neutrino mass, and also reveal its Majorana nature. I...
