REFLECTIONS The Break-Even Point: When Medical Advances Are Less Important Than Improving the Fidelity With Which They Are Delivered

by unknown authors
"... Society invests billions of dollars in the development of new drugs and technolo-gies but comparatively little in the fi delity of health care, that is, improving sys-tems to ensure the delivery of care to all patients in need. Using mathematical arguments and a nomogram, we demonstrate that technol ..."

Society’s huge investment in technological innovations that only mod-estly improve effi cacy, by consuming resources needed for improved delivery of care, may cost more lives than it saves. The misalignment of priorities is driven partly by the commercial

"... Due to the typical practice of curbside collection of recyclables in Wisconsin, glass with different colors (clear, brown, and green) tends to be mixed together during collection. Much of this glass is color-sorted at processing facilities, but a residual amount typically remains mixed together. As ..."

.61 to $292.94, depending on the irrigation system used (i.e., pivot, wheel-line, or furrow). Eastern Oregon’s non-irrigated wheat costs $191.51 to $168.78 per acre. Non-irrigated Willamette Valley wheat costs $366.98 per acres to grow. A break-even cost of $4.68 to $3.37 per bushel would be a better

Compared with baseline and SC subjects, IG subjects demonstrated a significant group-by-time interaction for benefit

Background

"... A process for the production of the ethyl ester of winter rape [EEWR] for use as a biodiesel fuel has been studied. The essential part of the process is the transesterification of rape oil with ethanol, in the presence of a catalyst, to yield the ethyl ester of rape oil as a product and glycerin as ..."

A preliminary break-even cost for the commercial production of EEWR was found to be %0.55/liter [%2.08/U.S. gallon].
