Using the Excess Heat Factor (EHF) to predict the risk of heat related deaths

Journal of Clinical Forensic and Legal Medicine, 2013
Extremes of climate are not uncommon in Australia and heatwaves are not infrequent. Periods of high ambient temperature may result in clusters of heat related deaths, which may place strain on forensic facilities. This paper describes the formulation of the Excess Heat Factor using meteorological data to provide a means of predicting death resulting ...

Impact of heatwave intensity using excess heat factor on emergency department presentations and related healthcare costs in Adelaide, South Australia

Science of The Total Environment, 2021
Abstract Background The health impacts of heatwaves are a growing public health concern with the frequency, intensity, and duration of heatwaves increasing with global climate change. However, little is known about the healthcare costs and the attributable morbidity associated with heatwaves Objective This study aims to examine the relationship ...

Effects of Excess Manganese on the Oxidative Status, and the Expression of Inflammatory Factors and Heat Shock Proteins in Cock Kidneys

Biological Trace Element Research, 2019
Manganese (Mn) can have adverse effects on organisms as a result of heavy or chronic exposure, including neurological damage. This study examined the effects of chronic exposure to manganese chloride (MnCl2) on various biochemical indices of inflammatory cytokines, antioxidant enzymes, and heat shock proteins (HSPs) in the kidneys of Hy-line cocks. The

Using the excess heat factor to indicate heatwave-related urinary disease: a case study in Adelaide, South Australia

International Journal of Biometeorology, 2019
The excess heat factor (EHF) is being adopted nationally for heatwave forecasting in Australia, but there is limited research utilizing it as a predictor for heat-related morbidity from diseases of the urinary system (urinary diseases). In this study, the incidence of eight temperature-prone specific urinary disease categories was analyzed in relation ...

Concentration dependence of the excess specific heat capacity and of the thermodynamic factor for diffusion in f.c.c. and b.c.c. ordering systems

Acta Materialia, 1998
Abstract The concentration dependence of the configurational specific heat capacity and of the thermodynamic factor for diffusion have been calculated for f.c.c. Ni–Al and b.c.c. Fe–Al alloys using the Cluster Variation Method in the tetrahedron approximation. Unexpected variations have been obtained, particularly close to stoichiometric compositions.

Thulium Fiber Laser: Long Pulse Width as an Independent Risk Factor for Excessive Heat Generation

Journal of Endourology
Introduction: Laser dosimetry selection is utilized to reduce stone retropulsion. Diode-pumped thulium fiber lasers (TFLs) allow for increased pulse energy by lengthening the pulse width. As pulse width lengthens, thermal diffusion has the potential to increase temperature generation outside of an irradiated ...
