Unavailability of Cardiac Catheterization

Peter Olds · 2023

Abstract Ischemic heart disease is one of the most common causes of mortality across the globe. The standard of care for acute myocardial infarction (MI) is percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), which remains woefully unavailable to the majority of the population in the Global South due to structural and economic inequities. Hence, the ISIS-2 study, which was done in 1988, remains relevant in locations where PCI is unavailable. This study was done to assess the efficacy of streptokinase and aspirin, alone and in combination, on vascular mortality in patients with acute MI. Streptokinase and aspirin reduced the odds of 5-week mortality by 25% and 23%, respectively, compared with those receiving placebo. The combination of streptokinase and aspirin led to a 42% reduction in the odds of mortality at 5 weeks, compared with those receiving placebo. Hence, in patients who present with acute MI, the combination of streptokinase and aspirin is safe and effective and remains the cornerstone of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) care in regions where PCI is unavailable.

Unavailability: When Neighbors Become Strangers

Boyd Blundell · Religion and the Arts · 2010

Abstract Richard Kearney’s Anatheism: Returning to God After God has hospitality to the stranger as one of its central features. This article traces the roots of such hospitality back through Kearney’s mentor Paul Ricoeur to Ricoeur’s own mentor, Gabriel Marcel. Marcel’s analysis of the role of abstraction in philosophical reflection leads him to propose a réflexion seconde as a means of avoiding the lure of the “spirit of abstraction.” Necessary to second reflection is the cultivation of the virtue Marcel calls “availability,” and it is in light of this elemental, though often elusive, ground for thinking and living that even the best ambitions of the hospitable wager are put to a strenuous test. The second part of the article takes up the case of post-Katrina New Orleans as a way of showing that in a consumerist and calculative society there is a default resistance to availability and therefore a severe handicap to entering even the most basic scene of hospitality. The intractable lack of availability thus rivals the otherwise provocative summons to the threshold of welcome, even where it concerns the neighbor. The anatheistic wager, though profound in its own right, will rarely be undertaken, and “available” inquiry thus faces a more elemental initial task.

The Unavailability of Authorial Intent

Szu‐Yen Lin · Theoria · 2020

Abstract Monroe C. Beardsley's unavailability argument is one of the most underrated anti‐intentionalist arguments in the philosophy of interpretation. The main idea of this argument is that, since independent evidence of authorial intent is normally unavailable, the literary interpreter should focus on what a text means rather than on what the author intends it to mean. In this article I propose a revised version of the argument to show that the unavailability of authorial intent suffices to make actual intentionalism untenable as a recommendation for finding out textual meaning.

Unavailability Assessment of IFMIF Target System

L. Burgazzi, Giannone, B., Zambardi, F. · ENEA Open Archive (National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development) · 2012

In the frame of the safety assessment of IFMIF(International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility), an analysis has been developed, aimed at evaluating an unavailability figure of the target system, and eventually at evaluating the expected performance of the plant, in terms of continuous and reliable operation. Starting points of the analysis have been the identification of functions relevant for plant availability and relationships between plant systems and functions and the definition of relationships among the systems themselves. Fault tree technique has been adopted to address the topic: despite the early stage of the design - at present many systems are not yet definitely established - systems boundaries and interfaces have been identified as well as the dependent failures between systems and components. Due to the novelty of the plant and its prototypical character, reliability data introduced in the numerical simulation underwent an accurate screening process among the current available databases, sometimes requiring the expert judgement assessment. Finally an uncertainty, importance and sensitivity analysis has been performed in order to add credit to the achieved results and to highlight reliability-critical systems and components: results are analysed to assess the compliance with the plant availability requirements and design criteria. Risk Spectrum code has been utilised for the system unavailability quantification.

Resource Unavailability (RU) Per Domain Behavior

Georgios Karagiannis, Lars Westberg, A. Bader et al. · Data Archiving and Networked Services (DANS) · 2006

This draft specifies a Per Domain Behavior that provides the ability to Diffserv nodes located outside Diffserv domain(s), e.g., receiver or other Diffserv enabled router to detect when the resources provided by the Diffserv domain(s) are not available. The unavailability of resources in the domain is monitored and detected by proportionally marking packets whenever the current link rate exceeds some pre-configured SLS agreed throughput (bandwidth) threshold. It is considered that the SLS agreed throughput threshold is not statically but loosely defined in order to allow a more efficient utilization of the Diffserv domain(s) and a simpler network management operation. This PDB can be applied in association with either a single Diffserv domain or multiple neighboring Diffserv domains, when a trust relationship exist between these multiple Diffserv domains. This specification is denoted as Resource Unavailability (RU) PDB and it follows the guidelines given in [RFC3086].

Essays on product and store unavailability.

Kowalczyk, Liliana · Lirias (KU Leuven) · 2021

In this dissertation, consumer response to different types of unavailability is empirically investigated. The dissertation consists of three chapters. More specifically, in Chapter 1, we examine how different types of full product unavailability impact consumers' emotional, attitudinal and behavioral response. In Chapter 2, we compare behavioral reactions of consumers to full and partial product unavailability. In both studies, we use data obtained through randomized controlled experiments conducted in a faux online store. In Chapter 3, we zoom in on temporary store unavailability by examining consumer behavior following temporary closures of grocery stores due to an employee strike. In order to investigate this, we model consumer purchase behavior using scanner panel data.

Adaptive supervisory control under sensor unavailability

Houshang Darabi, Mohsen A. Jafari · 2002

We present a supervisory control architecture with control redundancy. We assume an adaptive architecture for the problem of switching from one control module to another when sensors used for observing events in the plant fail or become unavailable. It is assumed that there is an actual controller and a number of virtual controllers. The actual controller is in real feedback loop with the plant whereas the virtual ones are in virtual feedback such that the coupled behavior of any of these control modules with plant conforms to what is called normality criterion in the context of partial observation. Every time that a failure occurs and the environment changes, the actual controller is replaced by one of these virtual ones. The selection is based on some optimality criterion and user defined constraints.
