Abstract:
Although the cost-effectiveness of preventive maintenance (PM) treatments for pavement is important, literature addressing this issue is limited. Even under the well-controlled FHWA long-term pavement performance (LTPP) study, incomplete data and sections exist. Criteria for selecting PM treatments often conflict and have to be compromised. The multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) method is one of numerous approaches available for resolving variations of results. The technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), an MCDM method, was used to analyze successfully al

An experiment compared effectiveness, cost and cost-efficiency of factorial combinations of the four commonly used methods of rabbit control on grazing properties in the Southern Tablelands of eastern Australia. Sixteen different treatment combinations were applied to 32 sites.

Preventive maintenance techniques are considered useful in extending the life of a pavement if applied at the right time. Discussed here is a framework for a process that can be used to select the proper maintenance strategies for different distress types in asphalt pavements, depending on traffic level and environment. Maintenance treatments addressed include only crack seals, fog seals, slurry seals, microsurfacings, chip seals, thin asphalt concrete overlays, and other thin surface treatments. Types of distress considered include roughness, rutting, fatigue cracking, longitudinal cracking,

Introduction Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) presents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Besides antidepressant medications, neurostimulation methods (ECT, rTMS) and ketamine are viable treatment options. Objectives To objectively evaluate the real effectiveness of treatments within interventional psychiatry in the maintenance treatment. Methods The extensive literature review of the efficacy of ECT, rTMS, and ketamine treatment in the maintenance treatment of TRD and the author’s clinical and research experience will be included in this presentation.

Asthma is chronic inflammatory airway disease and may be induced by both genetic factors and epigenetic factors. Asthma has no particularly typical symptoms,and these symptoms include cough, expectoration, suffocation, chest tightness and even breathing difficulties. Drugs for asthma treatment are divided into rescue treatment and maintenance treatment, rescue treatments are for people with mild symptoms of asthma which means the frequency of onset does not exceed two times a week while maintenance treatments with inhalable drugs that deal with inflammation are for all other patients that suff

Since 1999, the three novel agents of bortezomib, lenalidomide, and thalidomide have been approved for use among patients with MM. These agents have been increasingly used as maintenance therapy. To date, only two randomized controlled trials of maintenance therapy have examined the efficacy of these novel agents head-to-head.

The annual budget, determining the available funding, is a critical criterion when planning M&R treatments. However, its values are often given, and the determination of the values is seldom discussed. To fill the gap, this paper focuses on both the determination of annual budgets and the budget allocations, and therefore enhances the network-level decision-making on M&R by developing a Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO
