Abstract:
The U.S. health care system is one of the most expensive health care systems in the world, yet it is not as efficient as it is expected. Studies have shown that the use of expensive imaging procedures, such as CT scans, was significantly increasing for the past few years. However, the increased number of CT scans may not help to improve quality of care. No studies are conducted on investigate geographic variation on CT scan usage rate. This research is the first one to examine CT scan usage rate among counties and to examine variation caused by patient and hospital characteristics. We used the

Abstract:
Substrate removal is most commonly modelled with a Monod or a linear rate equation. In these expressions the removal rate is most often assumed to be first order with respect to volatile suspended solids, which are used as an approximation of the active biomass in the reactor. Wastewater treatment systems are typically operated at sludge ages at which the biomass is in the condition of advanced endogenous decay. This results in the accumulation of dead biomass and other organic debris which reduces the accuracy of volatile suspended solids as a measure of active biomass. The active biomass per

The search for increased productivity and cost reduction in machining can be interpreted as the desire to increase the material removal rate, MRR, and maximize the cutting tool utilization.

Abstract:
The aging experience of men and women in rural America is different than that of their urban counterparts. In this study, I identified key disparities in access to health care, mortality, and utilization of health care that result from geographic location. Foundational theories are discussed to illustrate that disparities can originate from historical societal behaviors. Secondary data and literary reviews create a combined qualitative and quantitative approach to explore the rural/urban divide, concluding that the potential for increased disparities as the aging population grows is very real

Abstract:
Nitrogen removal from wastewater by algae provides the additional benefit of producing lipids for biofuel and biomass for anaerobic digestion. As ammonium is the renewable form of nitrogen produced during anaerobic digestion and one of the main nitrogen sources associated with wastewater, experiments focused on the optimization of growth and lipid production when grown on ammonium were evaluated. Scenedesmus sp. 131 and Kirchneriella sp. 92 were grown in a 14:10 light/dark cycle on ammonium, nitrate or urea in the presence of 5% CO &acirc;‚‚ and ammonium and nitrate in the presence of air.

Abstract:
Due to socioeconomic disparities and geographic isolation, rural Kentucky residents bear a greater burden of poor health compared to national averages. Specifically, rural Kentucky residents are at greater risk of becoming obese and suffering from comorbidities of obesity such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease. The purpose of the present study was two-fold. First, we the barriers to nutrition and physical activity unique to rural Kentucky counties which high proportions of obese adults (< 40%) were examined and extrapolated. Second, this information was used to develo
