THE USE OF QALY AS AN INTEGRAL MEASURE OF EFFECTIVENESS IN THE EVALUATION OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES
This report addresses the ways of calculating QALY (Quality-adjusted life-year). OutsideRussia, a standardized methodology to calculate QALY is in use; such an approach makes it possible to apply this universal criterion of effectiveness to the ...

Increased Endurance of Nonvolatile Photonics Enabled by Nanostructured Phase‐Change Materials
Tapered and segmented islands of the phase‐change material (PCM) antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) integrated on silicon microring resonators enable ultra‐low‐loss, high‐endurance, non‐volatile photonic tuning. The nanostructured PCM design suppresses interfacial scattering and thermal stress, achieving record endurance over 100 million electrical switching ...

From representing views to representativeness of views: illustrating a new (Q2S) approach in the context of health care priority setting in nine European countries [PDF]
Governments across Europe are required to make decisions about how best to allocate scarce health care resources. There are legitimate arguments for eliciting societal vales in relation to health care resource allocation given the roles of the general ...

This review traces the evolution of lithium‐ion battery separators from passive barriers to multifunctional components central to cell safety and performance. Polymer‐ceramic hybrids, nanofiber architectures, and bio‐derived membranes deliver ionic conductivities above 3 mS cm−1, thermal stability beyond 200 °C, and effective suppression of lithium ...

This study shows that a lightweight blackbox neural network provides a practical, cost‐effective solution for bidirectional process prediction in laser‐induced graphene (LIG) fabrication. Achieving high predictive performance with minimal overhead, the approach democratizes machine learning (ML) for resource‐limited environments.

Measurement, modeling and QALYs [PDF]
Over the past 30 years, a mainstay of health technology assessment has been the creation of modeled incremental cost-per-quality adjusted life year (QALY) claims. These are intended to inform resource allocation decisions. Unfortunately, the reliance on the construction of QALYs from generic utility scales is misplaced.
