    Notes: This paper explains the process of defining, measuring and costing health service outputs (Health Resource Groups – HRGs). It identifies why the introduction of HRGs became necessary and how they were rolled out and became mandatory. The steps followed to achieve national uniformity are explained. Evidence is provided on the extent to which HRGs have been adopted and on the wider roles they may fulfil, such as benchmarking. The possible implications for resource allocation and the power of clinicians are discussed. Finally, attention is turned to the possible consequences of costed HRGs, as a means of achieving detailed financial accountability at operational level and to alternative means of control.

    Notes: Abstract.— Filial cannibalism has been identified as a constraint to the intensive production of swordtails Xiphophorus helleri. The objective of this study was to quantify the effect of refuge availability and quantity, broodstock population density, and adult sex-ratio on the rate of cannibalism under culture conditions. The availability of shelter had a significant effect on the number of harvestable juveniles, while the quantity of shelter did not affect harvest size. At a constant sex-ratio of 1:1 and broodstock population densities of four, ten, and 16 fish per 300-L tank the amount of juveniles harvested was lowest at the stocking density of four fish per tank, but did not increase significantly when stocking density was raised from ten to 16 fish per tank. Rate of cannibalism was lowest at the lowest population density. At a constant stocking density of ten fish per tank and sex-ratios of 1:1, 1:4, and 4:1 (male: female), the highest number of juveniles was obtained at a social structure of two males and eight females. Rate of cannibalism was independent of sex-ratio, indicating that males and females are equally cannibalistic. These results suggest that the 300-L broodstock tanks should be stocked with a maximum of two males and between five and eight females to obtain the greatest number of harvestable juveniles per tank.

    Hierarchies, networks and management accounting in NHS hospitals (1999)

    Notes: The pursuit of cost efficiency in the British National Health Service has resulted in increased emphasis on devolved financial accountability and the introduction of an internal market. With the aid of a case study, this paper examines alternative forms of governance and proposes that aspects of the internal market and functioning within acute hospital units, are suited to network-style organisation. The implications of hierarchies and networks for the design and use of management accounting information (MAI) are identified. These are used to analyse the case evidence concerning the roles, intended and unintended, of MAI in the context of organisational change and where multiple, and sometimes conflicting, goals and priorities existed. It concludes that a network approach to the design of MAI is more consistent with the desirable culture, at operational level, in acute units. However, this will only be achieved through deliberate intervention by those who design MAI systems and senior managers, who by their attitudes towards the interpretation and response to MAI, shape overall organisational culture.

    Characterization, crystallization and preliminary X-ray investigation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus (1998)

    Notes: Recombinant Sulfolobus solfataricus glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase has been purified and found to be a tetramer of 148 kDa. The enzyme shows dual cofactor specificity and uses NADP+ in preference to NAD+. The sequence has been compared with other GAPDH proteins including those from other archaeal sources. The purified protein has been crystallized from ammonium sulfate to produce crystals that diffract to 2.4 Å with a space group of P43212 or P41212. A native data set has been collected to 2.4 Å using synchrotron radiation and cryocooling.

    Dramatic structure and cultural context in Plato's Laches (1999)

    The @classical quarterly 49 (1999), S. 123-138

    Topics: Classical Studies
    Notes: The characters in Plato's Socratic Dialogues and the sociocultural beliefs and assumptions they present have a historical dramatic setting which ranges over the last quarter of the fifth century b.c.—the period of activity of the historical Socrates. That this context is to an extent fictional is undeniable; yet this leaves open the question what the dramatic interplay of (mostly) dead politicians, sophists, and other Socratic associates—not forgetting Socrates himself—signifies for the overall meaning and purpose of individual Dialogues. Are we to assume, with a recent study, that Plato is entirely concerned with his contemporary world and is, as it were, borrowing his characters from the fifth century, or does the fiction reveal something of his real involvement in the values and debates of the recent past? The aim of this paper is to argue that a detailed study of the characterization and dramatic structure of one particular Dialogue, Laches, strongly suggests that Plato is using a perceived tension between past and present to generate not only a philosophical argument but also a commentary on the cultural and political world of late fifth-century Athens and in particular Socrates’ position within it.

    Computed tomographic evaluation and guided correction of malpositioned nephrostomy catheters (1999)

    Notes: Abstract Background: To determine the utility of computed tomography (CT) in the detection and correction of malpositioned nephrostomy catheters after contrast spillage during nephrostograms. Methods: CT was performed in nine patients after an abnormal (contrast spillage) tube nephrostogram performed during or after nephrostomy tube placement. CT was used to locate the nephrostomy catheter position in relation to the renal collecting system. If possible, CT was also used for guidance and repositioning of the nephrostomy catheters into the intrarenal collecting system. Results: In all nine cases, CT was successful in detecting the position of the suspected malpositioned catheter. In seven of nine cases, CT demonstrated the catheter outside the renal collecting system and effectively helped reposition the catheters into the intrarenal collecting system. In one case, the malpositioned nephrostomy catheter was within the intraperitoneal cavity and required surgical correction. Another case required fluoroscopic-guided repositioning for the initial nephrostomy catheter, which was partly posterior to the kidney and partly within the kidney. The catheter in this latter case was successfully advanced over a guidewire into the collecting system. Conclusions: CT may be used to detect possible catheter malposition associated with nephrostomy tube placement. CT may also be used to successfully guide catheter repositioning in the renal collecting system.

    Notes: Abstract Type 3 laryngotracheo-oesophageal clefts are rare congenital anomalies with a high mortality. In the past, transport of such infants to tertiary centres for surgical correction has proved extremely difficult, with the child's ventilatory status often deteriorating to such an extent that ultimate surgical intervention has not proved possible. We describe two cases of successful inter-hospital transfer of infants with type 3 laryngotracheo-oesophageal clefts using the laryngeal mask airway.

    A case of Capgras delusion following critical illness (1999)

    Notes: Abstract. Hallucinations and paranoid delusions are recognised complications of critical illness. However, the occurrence of Capgras syndrome, in response to critical illness, where patients are convinced that doubles have replaced close family has not been described in the literature. There have been isolated case histories in the literature in response to medical procedures or illness but mostly in patients suffering from schizophrenia. A 42 year old woman was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with pneumonia, following extensive surgery for a squamous cell carcinoma, secondary to Crohns disease. She had no history of previous head injury, cerebro-vascular problems or psychiatric disorder. She reported having memories of all her family, with the exception of her mother, being replaced by aliens while she was on the ICU. The delusion was only diagnosed once it had resolved and the patient was able to talk, and this highlights the difficulty of diagnosing delusions while patients are still intubated and unable to verbalise their concerns. It has been suggested that a defect in the ability to recognise the emotional significance of the face lies at the root of Capgras syndrome.
