The burden of burnout: Understanding its prevalence and organizational drivers in medical physics
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Burnout is a work‐related syndrome characterized by increased levels of emotional exhaustion (EE) and depersonalization (DP) along with decreased levels of personal achievement. In the healthcare setting, higher burnout levels have been associated with negative impacts on personnel, an increased risk of errors, and a decrease in the

State model for partly undetected non-communicable diseases (NCDs) [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 This article proposes an age-structured compartment model for irreversible diseases with a pre-clinical state of undiagnosed cases that precedes the diagnosis. The model is able to cope with mortality rates differing between the pre-clinical and the clinical state (differential mortality).
