The delivery on time is not possible without the good-quality planning of deadlines, i.e. planning of the manufacturing process duration. The study of flow coefficient enables the realistic forecasting of the manufacturing process duration. This paper points to the significance of the study of flow coefficient on scientific basis so as to determine the terms of the end of the manufacture of chairs made of sawn timber. Chairs are the products of complex construction, often almost completely made of sawn timber as the basic material. They belong to the group of export products, so it is especially significant to analyze the duration of the production cycle, and the type and the degree of stoppages in this type of production. Parallel method of production is applied in chair manufacture. The study shows that the value of flow coefficient is close to one or higher, in most cases. The results indicate that the percentage of interoperational stoppage is unjustifiably high, so it is proposed how to decrease the percentage of stoppages in the manufacturing process.

The National Center for Health Statistics is assessing the usefulness of recruited web panels in multiple research areas. One research area examines the use of close-ended probe questions and split-panel experiments for evaluating question-response patterns. Another research area is the development of statistical methodology to leverage the strength of national survey data to evaluate, and possibly improve, health estimates from recruited panels. Recruited web panels, with their lower cost and faster production cycle, in combination with established population health surveys, may be useful for some purposes for statistical agencies. Our initial results indicate that web survey data from a recruited panel can be used for question evaluation studies without affecting other survey content. However, the success of these data to provide estimates that align with those from large national surveys will depend on many factors, including further understanding of design features of the recruited panel (e.g. coverage and mode effects), the statistical methods and covariates used to obtain the original and adjusted weights, and the health outcomes of interest.

This paper shows the diversity and significance of relations of duality among different economic systems. The composition of the principles underlying the system economic theory used for the analysis of duality in the economy is investigated. The concept of the economic system is clarified and the equivalence of three basic concepts of the economic system is shown: a) as a space-time volume (“black box”); b) as a complex of elements and connections among them; c) as a tetrad, including object, project, process and environment components. In a new way, the concept of the tetrad is revealed. The actual interpretation of the interrelationships of its components, based on the mechanisms of intersystem circulation of spatial and temporal resources and the transmission of abilities from one economic system to another, is proposed. On the basis of the obtained results, the most essential aspects of duality in the theory of economic systems are considered. It is shown that the interaction of internal content and the nearest external environment of economic systems lies in the nature of the relations of duality. A new approach to modeling the structure and to functioning of the economic system, based on the description of its activities in the form of two interconnected tetrads (the first tetrad reflects the intrasystem production cycle and the second one — the external realization-reproduction cycle) is put forward. It is shown that the concept of duality in a system economy creates prerequisites for adapting the functioning of local economic systems (objects, projects, etc.) in a market, administrative and functional environments and, as a result, harmonizing the economy as a whole.

Background:Educating trainees during cardiology fellowship is a process in constant evolution, with program directors regularly adapting to increasing demands and regulations as they strive to prepare graduates for practice in today’s healthcare environment.Methods and Results:In a 10-year follow-up to a previous manuscript regarding fellowship education, we reviewed the literature regarding the most topical issues facing training programs in 2010, describing our approach at The Ohio State University.Conclusion:In the midst of challenges posed by the increasing complexity of training requirements and documentation, work hour restrictions, and the new definitions of quality and safety, we propose methods of curricula revision and collaboration that may serve as an example to other medical centers.

A lábszártörés az összes csonttörés 15%-a, amely Magyarországon körülbelül 2500 esetet jelent évente. A törést elszenvedettek 90%-át műtéti úton kezeljük. Az utóbbi időkben a lábszártörések incidenciája emelkedett, a törések súlyossága fokozódott, valamint az egyre fejlettebb műtéti ellátások ellenére a szövődmények arányát sem sikerült minimálisra csökkenteni. A nyílt lábszártöröttek ellátása a felfúrás nélküli velőűrszeg bevezetését követően lényegesen megváltozott, a velőűrszegezés fokozatosan vette át a vezető szerepet az egyre magasabb fokú nyílt törések ellátásában, és alkalmassá vált a tibia proximalis és distalis harmada töréseinek kezelésére is. Új eljárásként a Marchetti–Vicenzi-szeget hazánkban elsőként alkalmaztuk klinikánkon, ezzel a módszerrel a tibia törései, különösen a distalis harmadi törések megbízhatóan, alacsony szövődményaránnyal rögzíthetők. A lábszárbrace és a felfúrás nélküli szegezés együttes alkalmazását 1997-ben dolgoztuk ki, bebizonyítottuk, hogy ezzel a módszerrel a lábszártörések gyógyulása gyorsabb, a rehabilitáció rövidebb időt vesz igénybe. A szövődmények klinikai kutatása során bebizonyítottuk, hogy a felfúrásos és a felfúrás nélküli szegezés során különböző mértékben változik a nyomás a tibiát körülvevő izomrekeszekben. Felfúrás nélküli szegezés során a mély rekeszben statisztikailag is magasabb nyomást mértünk. Az irodalmi adatokkal szemben igazoltuk, hogy nincs összefüggés a szegezés módja, a rekeszi nyomás emelkedése és a compartmentszindróma kialakulása között. A szövődmények alapkutatása során a compartmentszindrómás és Volkmann ischaemiás kontraktúrás betegek kóros harántcsíkolt izomszövetének differenciál pásztázó kalorimetriás vizsgálatát végeztük. Igazoltuk, hogy az ép és a keringésében károsodott izomszövet hőstabilitásában különbség van. Bebizonyítottuk, hogy az izomrekeszen belüli nyomás mértéke, a sérült izom strukturális károsodása és a kalorimetriával mért termokémiai értékei között szoros korreláció van. A kalorimetriás vizsgálat szenzitivitásának és specificitásának köszönhetően nagymértékben segítheti és kiegészítheti a helyes diagnózis felállítását azokban az esetekben, amikor az klinikailag nem egyértelmű.

The article addresses the issues of ensuring safe operation of mining equipment in surface mining. It describes the main factors and situations that pose a high risk to human life and health. The most dangerous incidents are shown to be related to limited visibility and blind spots for operators of mining equipment, which can result in collisions and personnel run over. The main technologies and specific solutions used to design collision avoidance systems are described and their general comparison is provided. A particular focus is placed on monitoring the health of employees at their workplace by means of portable personal devices that promptly inform the dispatcher of emergency situations. General technical requirements are formulated for designing of the system to prevent equipment collisions and personnel run over in surface mining operations. The paper emphasizes the importance of introducing a multifunctional safety system in surface mines in order to minimise the possibility of incidents and accidents throughout the entire production cycle.
