Twelve diverse primary care practices implemented assigned tools over a 6-month period. Qualitative results revealed challenges practices experienced during implementation, includ...
Effective measures to prevent infections from occupaonal exposure of healthcare workers to blood include mmunization against HBV, eliminating unnecessary injections, implementing Universal Precautions, eliminating needle recapping and disposing of the sharp into a sharps container immediately after use, use of safer devices such as needles that sheath or retract after use, provision and use of ...

Differences related to occupation, specialty, and gender have implications for the need to tailor interventions for specific groups of healthcare workers to improve compliance with Universal Precautions.
This paper discusses how to analyze syntactically irregular expressions in a syntactic treebank. We distinguish such Multi-Word Expressions (MWEs) from comparable non-compositional expressions, i.e. idioms. A solution is proposed in the framework of Universal Dependencies (UD). We further discuss the case of functional MWEs, which are particularly problematic in UD.

The observed strong dark-to-luminous matter coupling is described by a bias relation between visible and dark matter sources. We discuss the bias which emerges in the case where the topological structure of the Universe at very large distances does not match properly that of the Friedman space. With the use of such ”topological” bias, we construct the Universal Rotation Curve (URC) for spirals ...
