Clinical Costs of Feeding Tube Placement

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2007
Background: Although small‐bore tube placement is common, insertion can lead to serious complications. We investigated the use of radiographs, fluoroscopy, feeding tubes, and complications associated with blind feeding‐tube placement. Methods: The electronic and paper records of adult patients receiving a small‐bore feeding tube in 2005 were ...

Optimized Cost per Mille in Feeds Advertising

International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2020
Advertising has become a dominant source of revenue generation on the Internet. Billions of advertisement slots are sold via auctions. And there are many pricing methods ,e.g., CPM (cost-per-mille), CPC (cost-per-click), CPA (cost-per-action), OCPM (optimized cost-per-mille) and so on.

A cost-benefit analysis of nocturnal feeding in the rat

Physiology & Behavior, 1983
Rats are nocturnal feeders. The present results show that when either the cost of procuring a meal or the cost of consuming it increases differentially in the dark relative to the light, rats shift their feeding activity to the light phase of the light/dark cycle.

Energetic cost of a meal in a frequent feeding lizard

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2003
Specific dynamic action (SDA) describes the rise in metabolism following feeding in animals and represents the energetic cost of digesting and assimilating a meal. The overall energetic cost of feeding may depend on whether or not an animal is post-absorptive at the time of feeding.

A cost‐benefit analysis of feeding in female tsetse

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 1995
Abstract. Three models for feeding in female tsetse are considered. Model I: there is a prolonged non‐feeding phase after each meal followed by feeding at a constant rate, with a constant probability of dying as a consequence of feeding. Model II: the feeding rate increases linearly after each meal.

Beef Cattle Feeding Costs

Journal of Farm Economics, 1921
We have come to think of the phrase "beef cattle feeding" as referring to that short period in the animal's life during which it is confined within the limits of a few square feet upon a Corn Belt farm, and to consider the operation mainly with reference to the large quantities of highly concentrated farm products consumed by the animal.

Energetic cost of feeding territories in an Hawaiian honeycreeper

Oecologia, 1976
By analysis of time budgets the daily energy expenditure in territorial individuals of a Hawaiian honeycreeper (Vestiaria coccinea, Fam. Drepanididae) were estimated during the nonbreeding season and compared to that of nonterritorial individuals. The mean rise in living costs was 2.3 kcal/24 h or 17% of the nonterritorial energy budget.
