TL;DR: The 5-m, 10-m and six-minute walk test, High Level Mobility Assessment Tool and the Rivermead Mobility Index are psychometrically robust measures of walking and mobility and are feasible for use in clinical practice.
Abstract: Objective: To identify psychometrically robust and clinically feasible measures of walking and mobility in people with neurological conditionsData sources: MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, PEDro and AMED.Review methods: Independent reviewers selected and extracted data from articles that assessed the reliability, validity, sensitivity to change or clinical utility of measures of walking and mobility in adult neurological conditions. Measures with ‘good’ psychometrics and 9/10 clinical utility scores were recommended.Results: Seventeen measures were selected. Of these, the 5-m and 10-m walk tests, six-minute walk test, High Level Mobility Assessment Tool (HiMAT) and the Rivermead Mobility Index (RMI) reached the required standards and are usable in clinical practice. None of the recommended measures assessed wheelchair mobility. The least frequently assessed property was sensitivity to change. Further measures could be recommended if the minimal detectable change were demonstrated.Conclusion: The 5-m, 10-m and six...

TL;DR: In this paper, a new way to tailor the crystal chemistry of inorganic solids involves molecular recongnition between two-dimensional organic templates and embryonic inorganic aggregates.
Abstract: A new way to tailor the crystal chemistry of inorganic solids involves molecular recongnition between two‐dimensional organic templates and embryonic inorganic aggregates. Langmuir monolayers adopted as model surfaces offer opportunities for molecular engineering of the template. The Figure shows one example of oriented nucleation of vaterite under octadecylamine monolayers. (Figure Presented.) Copyright © 1994 Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim

TL;DR: In this article, the magnetization distributions in a series of ternary intermetallic compounds based on the composition Co2 YZ where Y is Ti, Mn or Fe and Z a subgroup-B element have been determined from polarized neutron diffraction measurements.
Abstract: The magnetization distributions in a series of ternary intermetallic compounds based on the composition Co2 YZ where Y is Ti, Mn or Fe and Z a subgroup-B element have been determined from polarized neutron diffraction measurements. Comparison of the magnetic structure factors with model calculations shows that the magnetization is associated principally with those atoms which in their elemental state are themselves magnetic. The observed deviations of the magnetic moment distributions from spherical symmetry have been used to deduce which of the 3d sub-bands are active at the Fermi energy. A small moment close to the limits of resolution is observed at some of the Z sites, together with a small delocalized moment which in most cases is negative. The results have been compared with the predictions of band models, which indicate that the Fermi level falls in a broad minimum in the minority-spin density of d states. Although the identity of the bands active at the Fermi surface is in broad agreement with predictions of band-structure calculations (Ishida S, Akazawa S, Kubo Y and Ishida J 1982 J. Phys. F: Met. Phys. 12 1111), the results suggest that there is a finite density of states in the minority-spin d band of manganese. Hence the compounds cannot be classified as half-metallic ferromagnets.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on implementation of the CSR agenda in small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) and report on research findings from an action research case study that has been conducted in a UK based SME.
Abstract: This paper focuses on implementation of the CSR agenda in small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) and reports on research findings from an action research case study that has been conducted in a UK based SME. The case study research demonstrates how the CSR agenda has been implemented using ISO 9001:2000 as a platform and what benefits the case study organization has gained from this approach. These results are compared with a UK survey on feasibility of CSR for SMEs conducted by the UK's Department of Trade and Industry and parallels are drawn.

TL;DR: This work reviews existing information on transmission routes and life cycles in different geographical contexts and - where available - includes basic biological information of parasites and hosts (e.g., susceptibility of host species).
Abstract: The genus Echinococcus is composed of eight generally recognized species and one genotypic cluster (Echinococcus canadensis cluster) that may in future be resolved into one to three species. For each species, we review existing information on transmission routes and life cycles in different geographical contexts and - where available - include basic biological information of parasites and hosts (e.g., susceptibility of host species). While some Echinococcus spp. are transmitted in life cycles that involve predominantly domestic animals (e.g., dog - livestock cycles), others are wildlife parasites that do or do not interact with domestic transmission. In many cases, life cycle patterns of the same parasite species differ according to geography. Simple life cycles contrast with transmission patterns that are highly complex, involving multihost systems that may include both domestic and wild mammals. Wildlife transmission may be primary or secondary, i.e., resulting from spillovers from domestic animals. For most of the species and regions, existing information does not yet permit a conclusive description of transmission systems. Such data, however, would be highly relevant, e.g., for anticipation of geographical changes of the presence and frequency of these parasites in a warming world, or for initiating evidence-based control strategies.
