Prävention der koronaren Herzkrankheit: Erste Längsschnittdaten zur ­Qualität in Hausarztpraxen

Wie viele Patienten mit koronarer Herzerkrankung erreichen Blutdruck- und Cholesterin-Zielwerte? Dank des FIRE-Projekts liegen erstmals Langzeitdaten über die Qualitätsentwicklung der Sekundärprävention in Schweizer Hausarztpraxen vor. Sie zeigen, wie diffizil das Thema «Qualität» ist

Stres Kerja, Kepuasan Kerja, Kesehatan Fisik, Kesalahan Kerja Dan Kecelakaan Kerja Teknisi Pesawat Udara

The study examines job stress, job satisfaction, physical health, work accidents and faulty work. Study was involving 100 aircraft technicians PT. Merpati Nusantara Airlines. Occupational injuries is measured by Safety Related Injuries Scale. Work was measured with a scale error faulty work by the job description of aircraft maintenance division that has been standard. Physical health was measured by Physical Health Questionnaire (PHQ). Job satisfaction was measured by job satisfaction scale developed by researchers. Work stress was measured by Job Stress Survey (JSS). Data occupational accidents, faulty work, physical health, job satisfaction and job stress were analyzed with statistical regression analysis. The analysis showed job stress did not predict an increase in accidents and faulty work. Job stress did not predict decline in physical health and job satisfaction. High and low occupational accidents, faulty work, physical health, and aircraft technician job satisfaction can not be predicted through the high and low job stress

Projectile Δ\Delta and target-Roper excitation in the p (d, d')X reaction

In this paper we compare a model that contains the mechanisms of $\Delta$ excitation in the projectile and Roper excitation in the target with experimental data from two (d, d') experiments on a proton target. The agreement of the theory with the experiment is fair for the data taken at T_d = 2.3 GeV. The $\Delta$ excitation in the projectile is predicted close to the observed energy with the correct width. The theory, however, underpredicts by about 40% the cross sections measured at T_d = 1.6 GeV at angles where the cross section has fallen by about two orders of magnitude. The analysis done here allows to extract an approximate strength for the excitation of the Roper [N^*(1440)] excitation and a qualitative agreement with the theoretical predictions is also found.Comment: 8 ps figure

Theory and Phenomenology of Vector Mesons in Medium

Electromagnetic probes promise to be direct messengers of (spectral properties of) hot and dense matter formed in heavy-ion collisions, even at soft momentum transfers essential for characterizing possible phase transitions. We examine how far we have progressed toward this goal by highlighting recent developments, and trying to establish connections between lattice QCD, effective hadronic models and phenomenology of dilepton production.Comment: 8 pages latex incl. 12 ps/eps files; invited plenary talk at Quark Matter 2006 conference, Shanghai (China), Nov. 14-20, 200

Isoscalar Giant Dipole Resonance and Nuclear Matter Incompressibility Coefficient

We present results of microscopic calculations of the strength function, S(E), and alpha-particle excitation cross sections sigma(E) for the isoscalar giant dipole resonance (ISGDR). An accurate and a general method to eliminate the contributions of spurious state mixing is presented and used in the calculations. Our results provide a resolution to the long standing problem that the nuclear matter incompressibility coefficient, K, deduced from sigma(E) data for the ISGDR is significantly smaller than that deduced from data for the isoscalar giant monopole resonance (ISGMR).Comment: 4 pages using revtex 3.0, 3 postscript figures created by Mathematica 4.

Linear Protection Schemes Analysis in Scattered Placement Fiber-To-The Home-Passive Optical Network Using Customer Access Protection Unit Solution

<STRONG>Problem statement:</STRONG> This study highlights on restoration scheme proposed against failure in working line at the drop region for Fiber-To-The Home (FTTH) with a Passive Optical Network (PON). Whereas PON is a system that brings optical fiber cable and signals all or most of the way to the end user.<STRONG> Approach:</STRONG> Survivability scheme against failure is focused on scattered residence architectures and it is applied in the ring and tree topology respectively by means of Customer Access Protection Unit (CAPU). CAPU will be installed before the ONU and ensure the signal will find the alternative path when failure occurs at the specific line. Our proposal scheme is low cost and applicable to any residence architecture. The advantage of this scheme is the failure at fiber line can be recovered until three levels to make sure the optic signal flow continuously to avoid any application disturbance. Two type of restoration scheme is proposed by means of linear protection (tree) and migrated protection (ring). FTTH based network design is simulated by using Opti System 7.0 in order to investigate the power output and BER performance at each node in the tree and ring protection scheme in scattered placement. This study we perform an analysis on linear protection scheme that consisting of two model a) Line to Line (L2L) protection and CAPU to CAPU (C2C) or Shared protection. However the migration of tree to ring topology to enable the signal flow continuously in the case of failure occurs specifically in random or scattered placement topology has been highlighted in our previous publication. <STRONG>Results:</STRONG> The signal will be divided into section; drop and pass through and the ratio is significant to determine the number of user allowed and achievable distance. Output power for optical nodes could be slightly improved by varying the pass through and drop signal ratio. <STRONG>Conclusion:</STRONG> Our proposal is the first reported up to this time in which the upstream signal flows in anticlockwise in ring topology when the restoration scheme activated

Isoscalar dipole strength in ^{208}_{82}Pb_{126}: the spurious mode and the strength in the continuum

Isoscalar dipole (compression) mode is studied first using schematic harmonic-oscillator model and, then, the self-consistent Hartree-Fock (HF) and random phase approximation (RPA) solved in coordinate space. Taking ^{208}Pb and the SkM* interaction as a numerical example, the spurious component and the strength in the continuum are carefully examined using the sum rules. It is pointed out that in the continuum calculation one has to use an extremely fine radial mesh in HF and RPA in order to separate, with good accuracy, the spurious component from intrinsic excitations.Comment: 19 pages, 2 figure
