This paper analyzes different definitions of BaU and points out that the major difference among these definitions is how to set the starting point of BaU projections, that is the so called base year. Some international institutions use current policy scenarios to project a BaU trajectory of developing countries. Such definition will lead to an underestimation of BaU emissions of developing countries and thus an underestimation of mitigation efforts. This paper concludes with a suggestion to use a without policy scenario with a clear base year as definition of BaU. Such a definition will set an objective benchmark to assess mitigation efforts of develonin countries.展开更多

This study aimed at searching for a probability distribution to estimate the usual intake of nutrients using data from a cross-sectional investigation on nutrition students from a public university in Sao Paulo state, Brazil. Data on 119 women aged 19 to 30 years old were used. All women answered a questionnaire about their lifestyle, diet and demographics. Food intake was evaluated from a non-consecutive three-day 24-hour food record. Different probability distributions were tested for vitamins C and E, panthotenic acid, folate, zinc, copper and calcium where data normalization was not possible. Empirical comparisons were performed, and inadequacy prevalence was calculated by comparing with the NRC method. It was concluded that if a more realistic distribution for usual intake is found, results can be more accurate as compared to those achieved by other methods.展开更多

Design： This was a retrospective chart review study. Setting： A large, academically-affiliated Veteran Affairs Healthcare System providing primary and tertiary care. Patients： 580 patients were identified as having an active prescription for amiodarone for at least 60 days from January l, 2009 to August 31, 2013 and receiving primary care at the VAAHS （Veterans Affairs Ann Arbor Healthcare System）. Results： Nearly all patients had TSH and LFTs at baseline regardless of study group. Significant associations between baseline rates for CXR, ECG, PFT, and opbthalmologic exams were found, with higher rates in the clinic and template arms compared to usual care. Similar patterns for all monitoring outcome rates were also found for both the 6- and 12-month measures. Conclusions： Patients on amiodarone who are followed by a pharmacist-managed clinic or where a restricted ordering template was used had increased compliance with amiodarone monitoring guidelines compared to usual care. Use of a restricted template may be a reasonable option in place of a pharmacist-managed service.展开更多

文摘Background:The prognosis of acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(AE-IPF)is very poor with a high mortality.The aim of this study was to describe the clinical features and survival of patients with AE-IPF with usual pulmonary fibrosis(UIP)and possible UIP(P-UIP)pattern on chest high resolution computed tomography(HRCT).Methods:This retrospective study included 107 patients with AE-IPF admitted to Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2010 to December 2016.The subjects were divided into UIP(n=86)and P-UIP group(n=21)based on chest HRCT.Continuous variables were analyzed using Student's t test or Mann-Whimey U test.Categorical variables were analyzed using x2 test.Log-rank test was used for the survival analysis.Cox proportional models evaluated the risk factors for AE occurrence and survival.Results:The male,older patients,previous N-acetylcysteine use,elevated white blood cell(WBC)counts,and microbiology infection were more common in the UIP group than the P-UIP group(X2=13.567,P<0.001;z=-2.936,P=0.003;X2=5.901,P=0.015;t=2.048,P=0.043;x2=10.297,P=0.036,respectively).The percentage of AE with UIP pattern in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia(ⅡP)was significantly higher than P-UIP pattern(X2=40.011,P<0.001).Smoking was the risk factor for AE within 6 months after IPF diagnosis in the UIP group.The cumulative proportion survival of 30-days was significantly higher in the UIP group compared with the P-UIP group(x2=5.489,P=0.019)despite of the similar overall survival in the two groups.Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated WBC count,partial pressure of oxygen in artery(PaO2)/ffactional concentration of inspired oxygen(FiOz),and computed tomography(CT)score were the independent predictors for survival in the UIP group(hazard ratio[HR]:1.070,95%confidential interval[CI]:1.027-1.114,P=0.001;HR:0.992,95%CI:0.986-0.997,P=0.002;and HR:1.649,95%CI:1.253-2.171,P<0.001,respectively).Conclusions:AE occurrence of UIP patients in IIP was significantly more than P-UIP cases.The short-term survival was better in the UIP group despite of the similar overall survival in the two groups.WBC count,PaO2/FiO2,and CT score were the independent predictors for survival in UIP subjects.
