The Swine Flu Triage (SwiFT) study: development and ongoing refinement of a triage tool to provide regular information to guide immediate policy and practice for the use of critical care services during the H1N1 swine influenza pandemic

Health Technology Assessment, 2010
Objectives: To use, existing critical care and early pandemic, data to inform care during the pandemic influenza A 2009 (H1N1) pandemic (with a possible use for triage – if the demand for critical care seriously exceeded supply). To monitor the impact of

Dielectric Permittivity Tensor of Muscovite for Next Generation All Van Der Waals Broadband Photonic Components

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐index and low‐loss vdW muscovite represents an emerging robust dielectric platform for the creation of next‐generation all‐vdW nanophotonic architectures. Its utilization as a low‐index building‐block in all‐vdW multilayers enables extreme optical contrast when paired with MoS2, paving the way to the realization of few‐layer ultrathin DBS ...

Intercropping Chickpea with Flax in Saskatchewan, Canada, Reduces Ascochyta Blight

Legume Science
Chickpea is a nutritious crop grown in drier parts of Saskatchewan. The disease Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei, makes production risky. Small plot trials at four Saskatchewan locations from 2018 to 2022 aimed to test the hypothesis that ...
