Cost-effectiveness of uterine tamponade devices for the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage: A systematic review
(Wiley, 2020-09)
Background: Uterine tamponade is widely promoted for treating refractory postpartum hemorrhage (PPH); however, its cost‐effectiveness may vary depending on unit costs and setting. Objective: To review available data on ...
Direct costs of glaucoma: Relationship between cost and severity of the disease
(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2018-09-04)
o estimate the direct medical costs associated with the management of patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and to compare the costs of patients according to the degree of severity. A longitudinal retrospective study ...
A unified approach to the estimation and interpretation of resistance costs in plants
(Nature Publishing Group, 2011-11)
Plants exhibit a number of adaptive defence traits that endow resistance to past and current abiotic and biotic stresses. It is generally accepted that these adaptations will incur a cost when plants are not challenged by ...
Cost analysis of remotely sensed foraging paths in patchy landscapes with plant anti-herbivore defenses (Patagonia, Argentina)
(Springer, 2007-05)
We developed metrics at a landscape scale to evaluate the costs and rewards experienced by large herbivores while foraging in natural vegetation with patchy anti-herbivore plant structures. We show an application of these ...
Do plants pay a fitness cost to be resistant to glyphosate?
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-02-08)
We reviewed the literature to understand the effects of glyphosate resistance on plant fitness at the molecular, biochemical and physiological levels. A number of correlations between enzyme characteristics and glyphosate ...
Benefit and cost curves for typical pollination mutualisms
(Ecological Society of America, 2010-05)
Mutualisms provide benefits to interacting species, but they also involve costs. If costs come to exceed benefits as population density or the frequency of encounters between species increases, the interaction will no ...
Direct and indirect costs associated to type 2 diabetes and its complications measured in a social security institution of Argentina
(Springer, 2014-10)
Objectives To estimate direct and indirect costs of care of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and its complications in Argentina, and compare them with those recorded in people without diabetes (ND).
Methods: Observational retrospective ...
A new low-cost water loop suitable for BiTe thermogenerators
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2013-04)
This paper presents a new design for a thermogenerator suitable for working on low-temperature (up to 175°C) BiTe modules. Its improvement is related to the cooling system that is a low-cost modular device based on domestic ...
Lighting pollution, the benefit/cost approach
(Znack Publishing House, 2002-05)
One of the urban lighting objectives is to extend people’s activities during night. In this case lighting is linked with functions as visibility, safety, security and visual
appearance of the surroundings. Considering ...
Computational cost of isogeometric multi-frontal solvers on parallel distributed memory machines
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2015-02)
This paper derives theoretical estimates of the computational cost for isogeometric multi-frontal direct solver executed on parallel distributed memory machines. We show theoretically that for the Cp-1 global continuity ...
