Flow-R, a model for susceptibility mapping of debris flows and other gravitational hazards at a regional scale: some case studies

Every year, debris flows cause huge damage in mountainous areas. Due to population pressure in hazardous zones, the socio-economic impact is much higher than in the past. Therefore, the development of indicative susceptibility hazard maps is of primary importance, particularly in developing countries. However, the complexity of the phenomenon and the variability of local controlling factors limit the use of processbased models for a first assessment. A debris flow model has been developed for regional susceptibility assessments using digital elevation model (DEM) with a GIS-based approach.. The automatic identification of source areas and the estimation of debris flow spreading, based on GIS tools, provide a substantial basis for a preliminary susceptibility assessment at a regional scale. One of the main advantages of this model is its workability. In fact, everything is open to the user, from the data choice to the selection of the algorithms and their parameters. The Flow-R model was tested in three different contexts: two in Switzerland and one in Pakistan, for indicative susceptibility hazard mapping. It was shown that the quality of the DEM is the most important parameter to obtain reliable results for propagation, but also to identify the potential debris flows sources.

Latex constituents from Calotropis procera (R. Br.) display toxicity upon egg hatching and larvae of Aedes aegypti (Linn.)

Calotropis procera R. Br. (Asclepiadaceae) is a well-known medicinal plant with leaves, roots, and bark being exploited by popular medicine to fight many human and animal diseases. This work deals with the fractionation of the crude latex produced by the green parts of the plant and aims to evaluate its toxic effects upon egg hatching and larval development of Aedes aegypti. The whole latex was shown to cause 100% mortality of 3rd instars within 5 min. It was fractionated into water-soluble dialyzable (DF) and non-dialyzable (NDF) rubber-free materials. Both fractions were partially effective to prevent egg hatching and most of individuals growing under experimental conditions died before reaching 2nd instars or stayed in 1st instars. Besides, the fractions were very toxic to 3rd instars causing 100% mortality within 24 h. When both fractions were submitted to heat-treatment the toxic effects were diminished considerably suggesting low thermostability of the toxic compounds. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of both fractions and their newly fractionated peaks obtained through ion exchange chromatography or desalting attested the presence of proteins in both materials. When submitted to protease digestion prior to larvicidal assays NDF lost most of its toxicity but DF was still strongly active. It may be possible that the highly toxic effects of the whole latex from C. procera upon egg hatching and larvae development should be at least in part due to its protein content found in NDF. However the toxicity seems also to involve non protein molecules present in DF.

Implantació en SAP R/3 de la fusió per absorció impròpia en les societats 'A1' i 'A2'

En el context actual sovint tenen lloc operacions juridicofinanceres de gran envergadura entre empreses del mateix grup, especialment en determinats sectors de l'economia. Aquestes operacions comporten la integració dels sistemes d'informació de les societats que s'hi troben afectades. El cas que ens ocupa fa referència a una operació de fusió per absorció de dues societats que pertanyen al mateix grup. Totes dues gestionen la seva activitat fent servir el sistema d'informació SAP/R3.

Evaluation des campagnes de prévention contre le SIDA en Suisse : Analyse der Medienreporte : November 1987

Die Analyse der Medienreporte untersucht vor allem Prozesse wie die Verbreitung der Botschaft der Kampagne STOP AIDS durch die Medien, die Verbreitung von informellen und institutionellen Aktionen (zum Beispiel die Aktivitäten zur Aufklärung in den Schulen), die Rolle der Multiplikatoren (Aids-Hilfe, Informanten an öffentlichen Veranstaltungen), den Meinungsbildungsprozess zur Aidsproblematik im allgemeinen und zur Präventionsstrategie im besonderen, soweit dieser in den Medien abgebildet, beziehungsweise von den Medien getragen wird. Im weiteren beachtet die Analyse Rückmeldungen über die Effekte (Resultate) der Kampagne (Beurteilung der Wirkung der Kampagne, zum Beispiel auf das Verhalten von Jugendlichen, Fixern). Die Analyse erfolgt mit Hilfe eines Kategorienschemas. [Autor, p. 2]

Evaluation des campagnes de prévention contre le SIDA en Suisse : "Les migrants" : rapport final 1988

Les auteurs ont estimé nécessaire de mieux comprendre, d'une part les différents états de connaissance, d'attitude et de comportement des populations d'immigrés en Suisse par rapport au phénomène du SIDA et à sa prévention, et d'autre part, d'évaluer si ces états peuvent être mis en relation aux cultures d'origine ainsi qu'à des phénomènes de migration. Les auteurs ont choisi pour cette étude les communautés turque et africaine.

Proyecto para la identificación de necesidades formativas y posterior implementación de acción docente en el ERIE Psicosocial de C.R.N.

La responsabilidad del ERIE Psicosocial a la hora de realizar su labor en el marco de la intervención en emergencias debe ir necesariamente acompañada de una correcta identificación de las necesidades que el equipo tiene en lo que respecta a su formación e instrucción, de cara a mantener el nivel de respuesta en su labor. El desarrollo de herramientas y métodos capaces de definir estas variables es, pues el primer paso de este proceso. El formato de desarrollo posterior de esas acciones formativas, teniendo en cuenta el carácter grupal y cooperativo del grupo, debe ser estudiado y validado para obtener la máxima eficacia durante su materialización.

Evaluation of the GlideScope (R) for tracheal intubation in patients with cervical spine immobilisation by a semi-rigid collar

Application of cervical collars may reduce cervical spine movements but render tracheal intubation with a standard laryngoscope difficult if not impossible. We hypothesised that despite the presence of a Philadelphia Patriot (R) cervical collar and with the patient's head taped to the trolley, tracheal intubation would be possible in 50 adult patients using the GlideScope (R) and its dedicated stylet. Laryngoscopy was attempted using a Macintosh laryngoscope with a size 4 blade, and the modified Cormack-Lehane grade was scored. Subsequently, laryngoscopy with the GlideScope was graded and followed by tracheal intubation. All patients' tracheas were successfully intubated with the GlideScope. The median (IQR) intubation time was 50 s (43-61 s). The modified Cormack-Lehane grade was 3 or 4 at direct laryngoscopy. It was significantly reduced with the GlideScope (p < 0.0001), reaching grade 2a in most patients. Tracheal intubation in patients wearing a semi-rigid collar and having their head taped to the trolley is possible with the help of the GlideScope.
