Technology and ispection of air conditioning systems

Summary A technical approach, in terms of air quality, implies the review of all components within the air conditioning system and the check of their characteristics, as far as contamination sources are concerned. The contribution introduces the parameters to be examined and specifies the importance of validation.     

Ethical Considerations of Triage Following Natural Disasters: The IDF Experience in Haiti as a Case Study

Natural disasters in populated areas may result in massive casualties and extensive destruction of infrastructure. Humanitarian aid delegations may have to cope with the complicated issue of patient prioritization under conditions of severe resource scarcity. A triage model, consisting of five principles, is proposed for the prioritization of patients, and it is argued that rational and reasonable agents would agree upon them. The Israel Defense Force's humanitarian mission to Haiti following the 2010 earthquake serves as a case study for the various considerations taken into account when designing the ethical‐clinical policy of field hospitals. The discussion focuses on three applications: the decision to include an intensive care unit, the decision to include obstetrics and neonatal units, and the treatment policy for compound fractures.

The first record for Melittobia australica Girault in New Zealand and new host records for Melittobia (Eulophidae)

Abstract

Melittobia australica Girault is a new record for New Zealand and from Vespula spp. In the Wellington district, M. australica was found in an embryo colony of the German wasp Vespula germanica (Fabricius) and in pupae of the mason wasp Pison spinolae Shuckard in 1980 and 1981 respectively. Melittobia was recorded in nests of P. morosum Smith in Canterbury, New Zealand in 1976 and 1977. The original sources of M. australica were considered.

The validity of the earliest record of Melittobia in a social wasp host is reconsidered. It is concluded Melittobia has been underated as a parasite of social wasps.     

四川和贵州省兽类新纪录——-台湾灰麝鼩（Crocidura tanakae Kuroda, 1938）

正台湾灰麝鼩(Crocidura tanakae)属于鼩形目(Soricomorpha)鼩鼱科(Soricidae),首次被Kuroda于1938描述,其模式产地在中国台湾台中市(Taichung)。随后一直被认为是灰麝鼩(Crocidura attenuata)的亚种或同物异名(Corbet and Hill,1992;Hutterer,1993;Fang et al.,1997;Motoka-

医院大数据应用影响因素分析与对策研究

目的 深入分析限制医院大数据应用普及的影响因素,研究促进医院大数据应用的对策与方法。方法 采用德尔菲法自制医院大数据应用影响因素调查问卷,随机抽取中国研究型医院学会医疗分会64家会员单位会员代表进行调查,获得有效问卷104份,有效回收率为94.55%。结果 应用推广（4.14±0.65）分,管理方式（4.07±0.60）分,数据基础（3.88±0.82）分。不同性别、年龄、职称、岗位组间对于影响因素的态度差异没有统计学意义（P > 0.05）。多元线性回归分析结果显示,管理方式（b= -0.381, P=0.019）和“缺乏大数据专业化人才”（b=-0.268, P=0.011）会对医院大数据应用普及程度产生显著的负向影响关系。结论 医院大数据应用水平未能有效满足医务人员需求,应从管理顶层设计入手,重点加强大数据专业化人才的培养,同时注重提升数据基础质量和应用推广力度。     

A journey through time: exploring temporal patterns amongst digitized plant specimens from Australia

Online access to species occurrence records has opened new windows into investigating biodiversity patterns across multiple scales. The value of these records for research depends on their spatial, temporal, and taxonomic quality. We assessed temporal patterns in records from the Australasian Virtual Herbarium, asking: (1) How temporally consistent has collecting been across Australia? (2) Which areas of Australia have the most reliable records, in terms of temporal consistency and inventory completeness? (3) Are there temporal trends in the completeness of attribute information associated with records? We undertook a multi-step filtering procedure, then estimated temporal consistency and inventory completeness for sampling units (SUs) of 50?km ×?50?km. We found temporal bias in collecting, with 80% of records collected over the period 1970–1999. South-eastern Australia, the Wet Tropics in north-east Queensland, and parts of Western Australia have received the most consistent sampling effort over time, whereas much of central Australia has had low temporal consistency. Of the SUs, 18% have relatively complete inventories with high temporal consistency in sampling. We also determined that 25% of digitized records had missing attribute information. By identifying areas with low reliability, we can limit erroneous inferences about distribution patterns and identify priority areas for future sampling.
