Rising mortality from injury in urban China: demographic burden, underlying causes and policy implications
In urban China, mortality from injuries has increased over the past five decades.By contrast, life expectancy has continued to increase and has come to nearly equal life expectancy in developed countries.Currently, most of the Freezer Thermostat life expectancy lost due to injury (65%) in urban China would be recovered if injury rates were the same
On the Geometrical Characteristics of Three-Dimensional Wireless Ad Hoc Networks and Their Applications
In a wireless ad hoc network, messages are transmitted, received, and forwarded in a finite geometrical region and the transmission of messages is highly dependent on the locations of the nodes.Therefore the study of geometrical relationship between nodes in wireless ad hoc networks is of fundamental importance in the network architecture design an
Can technology optimise the pre-operative pathway for elective hip and knee replacement surgery: a qualitative study
Abstract Background An ageing population has resulted in a rise in the number of hip and knee replacement surgeries in the UK.The pre-operative pathway is plagued with issues causing long delays and cancellations.Virtual healthcare technologies have a growing evidence base to help solve these issues.One problem of implementing these technologies is
