In this issue of CJEM, Ospina and colleagues provide an important addition to the emergency medicine literature on the indicators of overcrowding in Canadian emergency departments (EDs). Their efforts to define overcrowding and derive scientific tools to measure and correct it are admirable. Nonetheless, I was struck by their statement that “A more consistent approach that focuses on standardiz...

We proposed an approach to precisely control the density of tethered chains on solid substrates using PEO-b-PS and PLLA-b-PS. As the crystallization temperature Tx increased, the PEO or PLLA lamellar crystal thickness d(L) increased as well as the reduced tethering density sigma; of the PS chains. The onset of tethered PS chains overcrowding in solution occurs at sigma(*) approximately 3.7-3.8 ...

It has been generally accepted that there is some association between unsatisfactory housing conditions and pulmonary tuberculosis. Lack of sunlight and deficient ventilation, often aggravated by overcrowding, may lower resistance, and overcrowding in the presence of an infectious case increases the risk of massive infection. High population density also favours the spread of infection. Yet the...
