Morrow County 2005 transportation system plan

218 pp. Includes maps and figures. Published July 23, 2005; latest activity July 30, 2005. Received from ODOT January 2, 2007.The County of Morrow prepared its original Transportation System Plan (TSP) in 1997 as part of their overall Comprehensive Plan.... This TSP update (the 2005 TSP) is intended to guide transportation system development for the next 20 years. The plan will continue to be periodically updated to ensure it remains current and continues to meet the needs of the County. [From the Plan]"This project is partially funded by a grant from the Transportation and Growth Management (TGM) Program, a joint program of the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development. This TGM grant is financed, in part, by federal Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21), local government, and the State of Oregon funds.

City of Heppner transportation system plan

136 pp. Includes maps and figures. Published June 1999; most recent update June 2003. Received from ODOT January 2, 2007.This study was prepared as part of a Transportation Growth Management Grant and is formatted to provide the necessary elements for the City of Heppner to assemble its Comprehensive Plan. In addition, this document provides Morrow County and ODOT with recommendations for incorporation with their respective planning efforts. State of Oregon guidelines stipulate that the TSP must be based on the current comprehensive plan land use map and must provide a transportation system that accommodates the expected 20-year growth in population and employment that will result from implementation of the land use plan. Oregon Revised Statute 197.7 12 and the Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC) administrative rule known as the Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) require that all jurisdictions develop the following: a road plan for a network of arterial and collector streets; a public transit plan; a bicycle and pedestrian plan; an air, rail, water, and pipeline plan; a transportation finance plan; and policies and ordinances for implementing the transportation system plan. [From the Plan]"This project is partially funded by a grant fiom the Transportation Growth Management (TGM) Program, a joint program of the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development. TGM grants rely on federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act and Oregon Lottery funds.... The 2003 Update and Revision work was funded by a grant fiom the Transportation Growth Management Program.

City of Depoe Bay transportation system plan : 2000-2001

169 pp. Includes maps and figures. Most recent activity June 13, 2001. Received from ODOT January 2, 2007.The City of Depoe Bay received a State of Oregon grant to prepare a Transportation System Plan (TSP). The TSP results in a plan to satisfy the community's transportation needs and desires for the next 20 years. The TSP is developed for land within the Depoe Bay Urban Growth Boundary. The TSP identifies planned transportation facilities and services needed to support planned land uses identified in the City of Depoe Bay comprehensive plan consistent with the Transportation Planning Rule (OAR 660-012) and the Oregon Transportation Plan (OTP). [From the Plan]"This project is partially funded by a grant from the Transportation and Growth Management (TGM) Program, a joint program of the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development.

Italian multicentre study of peroneal mononeuropathy at the fibular head: study design and preliminary results

BACKGROUND: The most common entrapment in the lower extremity is peroneal mononeuropathy (PM) at the fibular head. Several studies of this condition have been published but, until now, no wide multicenter clinical-neurophysiological studies on PM are available. In recent years, multicenter studies have been suggested; moreover it is commonly accepted that a multiperspective approach provides more comprehensive results. METHOD: The Italian CTS and other entrapments Study Group has designed a strict clinical and neurophysiological protocol to carry out a wide multicentre study on PM at the fibular head. In addition to traditional clinical-neurophysiological evaluation, the group has also adopted validated disability and patient-oriented measurements in order to obtain more comprehensive and reliable data about this entrapment. The study was designed: 1) to identify predisposing factors; 2) to better assess the clinical picture; 3) to evaluate relationships between etiological, clinical and neurophysiological findings; 4) to evaluate the natural evolution of the entrapment. Study design is described. FINDINGS: During the period from November 2002 to January 2004, 69 patients were enrolled consecutively in eleven Italian centres. Our preliminary data show that PM involves men more frequently than women (M:F = 3.9:1). With regard to the predisposing factors, PM is idiopathic (16%) or due to surgery (21.7%), prolonged posture (23.2%), weight loss (14.5%), external compression (5.8%), arthrogenic cyst at the fibula (1.4%), trauma (10.1%); it also occurred in bedridden patients (7.3%). Unexpectedly, peroneal nerve lesions were due not only to surgical operation close to the peroneal region, but were also associated with thoracic-abdominal surgery. Usually PM involves both terminal branches; patients complain of motor deficit in 99.5% of cases, sensory symptoms in 87.9% and pain in 19.7%. CONCLUSIONS: Our preliminary results provide some interesting information and confirm the usefulness of multicentre and multiperspective studies to standardise the approach to nerve entrapment

Italian multicentre study of peroneal mononeuropathy: multiperspective follow-up

The main objective of this study is to assess the course of peroneal mononeuropathy (PM). The study design includes Clinical and Prospective study. The setting involves neurophysiological Service. From November 2002 to January 2004, we enroled 69 consecutive patients and prospectively followed up 49 patients with multiple measurements. Comparison was made between follow-up and baseline values, and baseline factors were used to predict the PM evolution in multiple regression analysis. At follow-up, we observed a significant improvement of all clinical, neurophysiological and disability measurements, and physical aspects of quality of life (QoL). Greater muscle strength of tibialis anterior and higher conduction velocity of peroneal nerve at baseline were seen to be positive prognostic factors. A better evolution of mental aspects of QoL was observed in the subacute group and in younger patients, while a better physical evolution in QoL was observed in women. Rehabilitation is ambiguously associated with a better Deambulation Index but lower ratings in mental aspects of QoL. In conclusion, PM shows a positive spontaneous course and rehabilitation seems to help the recovery of deambulation. Further studies on the effects of conventional rehabilitation are needed
