TL;DR: It was found that for symptomatic patients, most optometrists would correct an anomaly if it reached the ‘cut off’ point above which the anomaly would be corrected over 50% of the time that it was encountered, and there was a large variation for each category, but it was clear that the presence or absence of symptoms was an important factor for most Optometrists when deciding whether to correct a small error.

TL;DR: Some informative, useful articles about health are found, but the study shows room for improvement, especially among the papers whose readership is concentrated in lower socio-economic groups.
Abstract: The growth of UK public interest in health in the last decade is reflected by the inclusion in most national newspapers of regular health or medical sections. These potentially allow subjects to be covered in detail, with more background information and useful advice. This paper reports on a content analysis study of eight national newspapers, which aimed to obtain an overview of press health coverage, to compare the coverage of popular and quality papers, and to analyse differences in health topic coverage between 1981 and 1990. The subject coverage, information provision and presentation of health related articles were considered. The most common subject categories were diseases, preventive medicine (including diet and exercise) and the National Health Service. Class inequalities in health received very little coverage. Clear differences were confirmed between quality broadsheet and popular tabloid newspapers. Quality papers provided more scientific information about health and paid more attention to po...

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison between the linear and the higher order polynomial regression showed a better performance in calibrated temperature measurement applications when the non-linear temperature coefficients are included, yielding an acceptable rms error of less than or comparable to 1.9 °C, compared to linear regression, with the rm error range of 3.3 −7.5 °C for the various gratings studied, over the whole measurement range.
Abstract: Temperature measurements have been made by using fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) written in a range of fibres and detailed data on their characteristics are presented. The data are fitted to polynomials that may be used in the calibration of temperature measurements with these types of gratings in automated systems. Issues of precision in such measurements from room temperature to 500 °C have been considered using several gratings of type I and IIA written in three different photosensitive fibres, taking into account the non-linear temperature response of the fibre Bragg gratings. Comparisons between the linear and the higher order polynomial regression showed a better performance in calibrated temperature measurement applications when the non-linear temperature coefficients are included, yielding an acceptable rms error of less than or comparable to 1.9 °C, compared to linear regression, with the rms error range of 3.3–7.5 °C for the various gratings studied, over the whole measurement range.
