The cost associated with the development of the antimicrobial stewardship program in the adult general medicine setting in Qatar by Abushanab, Dina

“…The operational costs decreased with the developed ASP. Whereas antimicrobial consumption and resource utilisation, and their associated costs, appear to have declined with the developed ASP, with a cost saving of QAR458 (US$125) per 100-patient beds, the avoided cost was negative, by QAR4,807 (US$1,317) per 100-patient beds, adding to a total QAR4,224 (US$1,160) increase in the 100-patient beds cost after ASP development. …”

A global multiregional life cycle sustainability assessment of national energy production scenarios until 2050 by Kucukvar M.

“…The results showed that in comparison of BAU with RED scenario, GHG emissions associated would be 84% less in RED, wages will be 23% less and taxes would decrease by 22.4% under RED plan by 2050. In addition, energy sources responsible for the highest GHG emissions per kilowatt-hour of electricity produced are found as biomass, coal, waste and oil. …”

Evacuation under flooded conditions: Experimental investigation of the influence of water depth on walking behaviors by Dias, Charitha

“…To propose guidelines for evacuation planning during floods and to develop simulation tools, which can be used in evacuation planning, empirical data are needed under different flooding conditions. However, there is a lack of data and studies on such aspects. This study examines the influence of water depth on human walking behaviors under hydrostatic conditions using the data collected through a controlled laboratory experiment. …”
