Librarian Internet Index Using the Librarian Internet Index, two sources were found for investigating financial reform in the United States. The first was the website for the Tax Policy Center, which is a collaborative effort between the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute. This site offers independent analyses of federal tax policies and financial issues. The other source was a publication produced by the United States Government Accountability Office entitled "Understanding the Tax

Dynamic Gait Index Multiple sclerosis is the disease of the central nervous system. Most of the people suffering from it have the problem with walking, with characteristics like slower rate, decrease length and dynamic balance. Surveys demonstrate that more than 50% of people diagnose with MS have had falls at any point and is a recurrent dangerous problem. For that purpose, walking, balance and risk for fall test are performed as a part of their rehabilitation, and it is an inevitable tool for

Pneumonia severity index (PSI) is a score based on patient age, medical history, current symptoms, vital signs, and blood work. Reference? Each value will have a score given if it meets the criteria. All of the scores are added up giving a total score that puts the patient into a risk category. The pneumonia severity index has five risk categories based on the score. The risk factor category that the patient falls under will help the health care provider determine how to go about treating the patient’s

Therapeutic index refers to the relationship of toxic and therapeutic dosage. According to Smith “therapeutic index of a drug is the ratio of the dose that produces toxicity to the dose that produces a clinically desired or effective response.” Therefore, the dose of the drug is a cause of the toxic and therapeutically. Drugs that are safe to use have a higher index and the dangerous drug has a lower therapeutic index. I think that the most dangerous is the with the higher index because people

Follow-up (3- 47 months, average of 15.96 ± 13.89 months) showed a significant improvement of all clinical symptoms in all patients (Table 1 and 2). DISCUSSION Vertico-horizontal Atlantoaxial Index In patients with basilar invagination and atlantoaxial dislocation, the point of maximal neural compression is the odontoid process.6 Based on this pathological mechanism, neural compression can be divided into vertical displacement (along the long axis of the odontoid process) and horizontal displacement

The magnitude of an individual’s peak power, relative power and fatigue index can be directly related to an individuals training status. This can be determined by performing a short duration supramaximal anaerobic test. Peak power output heavily relies on the anaerobic metabolism within the body. Comprising of the adenosine triphosphate - phosphocreatine (ATP-PC) system and glycolytic anaerobic metabolic pathways. When physiological stress is placed on the metabolic, cardiovascular and musculoskeletal

QUESTION The Corruption Perception Index (CPI) is a comparative assessment of a country’s integrity performance along with related academic research on corruption. Provide a description of this index and its ranking. Identify the five countries with the lowest and five with highest CPI scores according to this index. 1.0 INTRODUCTION Ethics is accepted principles of right or wrong that govern the conduct of a person, the members of a profession and the actions of an organization. There are five

your own words. Please do not copy and paste from the assigned paper. 1. Clear statements of the problem(s) (or issue(s)) that the paper is addressing (upto 2 pages only): The most efficient database systems performance depends mostly on index tuning. Index tuning is defined as a process of creating and utilizing the best indices according to the workload. But, the difficulty of this process has been increased so radically in the past few

Breeding value of the individual estimated on the basis of the performance of the progeny is called Progeny Testing. If the heritability (h2) of the trait is high and the animal is able to express the trait by itself then individual selection is the best method. But in case of many traits it so happens that the trait is expressed in only one sex (i.e., sex limited traits), or when the trait is expressed after the death of the animal (i.e., slaughter traits), then the breeding value (B.V.) of the

The city of Boston experienced a momentous spike in violent crimes from the years 2004 to 2006. Violent Index crimes consist of robbery, aggravated assault, forcible rape, non-negligent manslaughter and murder. These crimes, predominately robberies and assaults committed with guns, rose by nine percent; the percentage of homicides also increased by 23. The communities experiencing these crimes were mainly those of minorities such as Dorchester, Mattapan and Roxbury. Abruptly, the residents of Boston
