Game Theoretic Foundations of the Gately Power Measure for Directed Networks
No full textWe introduce a new network centrality measure founded on the Gately value for cooperative games with transferable utilities. A directed network is interpreted as representing control or authority relations between players—constituting a hierarchical network. The power distribution embedded within a hierarchical network can be represented through appropriate TU-games. We investigate the properties of these TU-representations and investigate the Gately value of the TU-representation resulting in the Gately power measure. We establish when the Gately measure is a core power gauge, investigate the relationship of the Gately with the (Formula presented.) -measure, and construct an axiomatisation of the Gately measure

Gately & Hurley Company, et al., petitioners vs. the Delaware & Atlantic Telegraph & Telephone Co., defendant and the Board of Chosen Freeholders of the County of Camden, petitioners vs. the Delaware & Atlantic Telegraph & Telephone Co., defendant - Decision and order
No full textDecision and order in the case of Gately and Hurley Company and the Board of Chosen Freeholders of Camden County against the Delaware and Atlantic Telegraph and Telephone Company before the Board of Public Utility Commissioners of New Jersey. The original complaint was filed by Gately & Hurley. Joining with them were some twenty-three of the largest commercial, manufacturing and banking houses in Camden. The testimony taken covered not only charges to all complainants, but to all patrons in the entire territory of the company in the State. The essential issues raised in this case were (1) Unjust Discrimination; (2) Absence of a Reasonable Classification of service offered; (3) Unjust and Unreasonable Rates

Integrating telecare for chronic disease management in the community: what needs to be done?
No full text<b>Background</b> Telecare could greatly facilitate chronic disease management in the community, but despite government promotion and positive demonstrations its implementation has been limited. This study aimed to identify factors inhibiting the implementation and integration of telecare systems for chronic disease management in the community.<p></p>
<b>Methods</b> Large scale comparative study employing qualitative data collection techniques: semi-structured interviews with key informants, task-groups, and workshops; framework analysis of qualitative data informed by Normalization Process Theory. Drawn from telecare services in community and domestic settings in England and Scotland, 221 participants were included, consisting of health professionals and managers; patients and carers; social care professionals and managers; and service suppliers and manufacturers.<p></p>
<b>Results</b> Key barriers to telecare integration were uncertainties about coherent and sustainable service and business models; lack of coordination across social and primary care boundaries, lack of financial or other incentives to include telecare within primary care services; a lack of a sense of continuity with previous service provision and self-care work undertaken by patients; and general uncertainty about the adequacy of telecare systems. These problems led to poor integration of policy and practice.<p></p>
<b>Conclusion</b> Telecare services may offer a cost effective and safe form of care for some people living with chronic illness. Slow and uneven implementation and integration do not stem from problems of adoption. They result from incomplete understanding of the role of telecare systems and subsequent adaption and embeddedness to context, and uncertainties about the best way to develop, coordinate, and sustain services that assist with chronic disease management. Interventions are therefore needed that (i) reduce uncertainty about the ownership of implementation processes and that lock together health and social care agencies; and (ii) ensure user centred rather than biomedical/service-centred models of care

Design, construction, and analysis of cell line arrays and tissue microarrays for gene expression analysis
No full textCell line array (CMA) and tissue microarray (TMA) technologies are high-throughput methods for analysing both the abundance and distribution of gene expression in a panel of cell lines or multiple tissue specimens in an efficient and cost-effective manner. The process is based on Kononen's method of extracting a cylindrical core of paraffin-embedded donor tissue and inserting it into a recipient paraffin block. Donor tissue from surgically resected paraffin-embedded tissue blocks, frozen needle biopsies or cell line pellets can all be arrayed in the recipient block. The representative area of interest is identified and circled on a haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained section of the donor block. Using a predesigned map showing a precise spacing pattern, a high density array of up to 1,000 cores of cell pellets and/or donor tissue can be embedded into the recipient block using a tissue arrayer from Beecher Instruments. Depending on the depth of the cell line/tissue removed from the donor block 100-300 consecutive sections can be cut from each CMA/TMA block. Sections can be stained for in situ detection of protein, DNA or RNA targets using immunohistochemistry (IHC), fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) or mRNA in situ hybridisation (RNA-ISH), respectively. This chapter provides detailed methods for CMA/TMA design, construction and analysis with in-depth notes on all technical aspects including tips to deal with common pitfalls the user may encounter. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2011
