TL;DR: A needleless injector as mentioned in this paper comprises a cartridge (3) prefilled with liquid (9), which cartridge contains a free sliding piston (32) and an injection orifice (10), a ram (22) is urged by a preloaded spring (24) for striking the said piston to cause the injections.
Abstract: A needle-less injector comprises a cartridge (3) prefilled with liquid (9), which cartridge contains a free sliding piston (32) and an injection orifice (10). A ram (22) is urged by a pre-loaded spring (24) for striking the said piston to cause the injections. Adjusting means (6) can be provided to vary the volume injected. A trigger device (26, 30) initiates injection only when the optimum contact pressure is reached between the discharge orifice (1) and epidermis of the subject. The initial loading of the power spring (24) is sufficient to dispense all of the contents of the medicament cartridge in one dose or multiple sequential doses. Disposable and reusable embodiments are described.

TL;DR: A broad range of case studies from diverse marine taxa are compiled to show how tracking data have helped inform conservation policy and management, including reductions in fisheries bycatch and vessel strikes, and the design and administration of marine protected areas and important habitats.
Abstract: There have been efforts around the globe to track individuals of many marine species and assess their movements and distribution, with the putative goal of supporting their conservation and management. Determining whether, and how, tracking data have been successfully applied to address real-world conservation issues is, however, difficult. Here, we compile a broad range of case studies from diverse marine taxa to show how tracking data have helped inform conservation policy and management, including reductions in fisheries bycatch and vessel strikes, and the design and administration of marine protected areas and important habitats. Using these examples, we highlight pathways through which the past and future investment in collecting animal tracking data might be better used to achieve tangible conservation benefits.

TL;DR: No other monitoring investigation published in the scientific literature uses direct-injection methods to cover as many PPCPs and therapeutical categories in different types of WS, and the risk quotients calculated using screening-level Predicted Non Effect Concentration indicate that WWTP effluents contain 33 PPCP with potential medium to high ecological risk.

TL;DR: Over a one-year period, expenditures were reduced by 22 percent below predicted levels without managed care, without any overall reduction in access or relative quality, and the applicability of such a program to high-risk populations is supported.
Abstract: Massachusetts was the first state to introduce a statewide specialty mental health managed care plan for its Medicaid program. This study assesses the impact of this program on expenditur...
