Health networks: can they be the solution?
Decreased hepatic function in patients with hepatoma or liver metastasis monitored by a hepatocyte specific galactosylated radioligand Summary 9'Tc-galactosylated neoglycoalbumin ("mTc-NGA) is a hepatocyte-specific tracer that, after injection into the blood stream, delivers radioactivity selectively to the liver. This is based upon chemical recognition and binding by the hepatic binding protei...
متن کاملCan Qubit Errors Be Corrected?
This note examines assumptions at the basis of the recently proposed quantum error-correcting codes. It is shown that these codes can correct only a subset of errors, and are unable to correct small phase errors which can have disastrous consequences for a quantum computation. This shortcomings will restrict their usefulness in real applications. Colours seen by candle-light Will not look the s...
متن کاملErrors in Hellmann-Feynman forces due to occupation-number broadening and how they can be corrected
In ab initio calculations of electronic structures, total energies, and forces, it is convenient and often even necessary to employ a broadening of the occupation numbers. If done carefully, this improves the accuracy of the calculated electron densities and total energies and stabilizes the convergence of the iterative approach towards self-consistency. However, such a broadening may lead to a...
متن کاملLocal Governments and Health Services: How Can They Be Reconciled?
The article discusses the concepts of centralisation and decentralisation in theory. There are various criteria that can be used to assess the advantages and disadvantages of decentralisation, and the paper will discuss these. In addition, empirical examples are presented. Next the article moves on to a case study of Finland. Finland has strong municipalities in the comparative European aspect,...
متن کاملThe ABET “ Professional Skills ” – Can They Be Taught ? Can They Be Assessed ?
In developing its new engineering accreditation criteria, ABET reaffirmed a set of “hard” engineering skills while introducing a second, equally important, set of six “professional” skills. These latter skills include communication, teamwork, and understanding ethics and professionalism, which we label process skills, and engineering within a global and societal context, lifelong learning, and ...
