This rapid review identifies evidence on the role of economic growth and economic development in helping countries break out of fragility. There is no commonly agreed definition of the terms ‘fragile states’ or ‘fragility’, and use of the terms are contested Most development agencies define fragility as ‘a fundamental failure of the state to perform functions necessary to meet citizens’ basic n...
In this paper we continue work from a previous paper on the fragility and indestructibility of the tree property. We present the following: (1) A preservation lemma implicit in Mitchell’s PhD thesis, which generalizes all previous versions of Hamkins’ Key lemma. (2) A new proof of theorems the ‘superdestructibility’ theorems of Hamkins and Shelah. (3) An answer to a question from our previous p...
INTRODUCTION We aimed to assess the incidence and hospitalization rate of hip and "minor" fragility fractures in the Italian population. METHODS We carried out a 3-year survey at 10 major Italian emergency departments to evaluate the hospitalization rate of hip, forearm, humeral, ankle, and vertebral fragility fractures in people 45 years or older between 2004 and 2006, both men and women. Th...
Intracellular activation of pancreatic digestive enzymes by lysosomal hydrolases is thought to be an early event in the pathogenesis of pancreatic injury. As ethanol excess is an important association of pancreatitis, experimental work has been directed towards exploring possible mechanisms whereby ethanol may facilitate contact between inactive digestive enzyme precursors and lysosomal enzymes...
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is one of the commonest bone diseases in which bone fragility is increased. Over 300,000 patients present to hospitals in the UK with fragility fractures each year, with medical and social care costs - most of which relate to hip fracture care - at around £2 billion. The number of these fractures rises by 2% a year. The 30 days mortality is 10% and 30% at 1 year. The pur...
Mild anaemia among patients with hyperthyroidism, reduction in intracranial zinc content of erythrocytes and anti- haemolysis of whole blood of patients with Graves, disease under laboratory Condition are the facts which indicate that although erythrocytes are devoid of receptors for thyroid hormones, they are affected by the excess of these hormones. In order to find out the reasons for suc...
This study assessed age-related and gender differences in the relative contribution of fragility and crash over-representation to serious injuries per crash-involved driver in Western Australia. Police-reported crashes for the period 1998-2003 were extracted from the Western Australian Road Injury Database. For each passenger vehicle driver age and gender group, serious injuries per crash-invol...
OBJECTIVE(S) Some but not all studies indicate that individuals with HIV infection are at an increased risk of fracture. We systematically reviewed the literature to investigate whether incidence of fracture (both overall and fragility) differs between individuals with and without HIV. DESIGN A systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS Medline, Scopus and the Cochrane Library databases f...
Fragility curves depict the relationship between a weather variable (wind speed, gust speed, ice accumulation, precipitation rate) and the observed outages for a targeted infrastructure network. This paper describes an empirical study of the county by county distribution of power outages and one minute weather variables during Hurricane Irene with the objective of comparing 1) ‘as built’ fragil...
OBJECTIVE To determine the proportion of patients with fragility fractures who can be expected to have low bone mineral density (BMD) at the time of fracture and to assist FPs in deciding whether to refer patients for BMD testing. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHL were searched from the earliest available dates through September 2009. STUDY SELECTION English-language articles reporti...
