We investigate the effectiveness of these methods in conjunction with state-of-the-art embeddings based on Large Language Models (LLMs), particularly ADA from OpenAI, which is trained on a wide range of general-purpose texts. Utilizing a dataset from one of Brazil’s administrative courts, we ...
For example, LCCA will help determine whether the incorporation of a high-performance HVAC or glazing system, which may increase the initial cost but result in dramatically reduced operating and maintenance costs, is cost-effective or not.” However, LCCA is not useful when it comes to budget...
The threshold analyses identified the values of each parameter that would result in benefit-cost ratios less than 1 (Table 4). Increasing the intervention cost per child to US$1,566, decreasing the effect size of the intervention to 0.074, decreasing the gains in wages associated with cognitive...
While Diaskintest strategy was the most cost saving, the result was sensitive to variations in the probabilistic sensitivity analysis (Fig. 2). Considering all strategies simultaneously, the Monte Carlo simulations show that, at a willingness to pay threshold of US $7544 per QALY, the Diaskin...
1. Energy is one of the driving forces in socio-economic development (Olsson 1994). Sustainable development must be predicated on a sustainable energy system. To that end, nuclear energy is recogni...
(PID) as a result of treatment, 0.925 is an adjustment factor to prevent double-counting of PID averted in women with both chlamydia and gonorrhea, 0.70 is an adjustment factor to account for the possibility of re-infection, and $1,995 is the average cost per case of PID, based on ...
Sa=Io(co−ci)A where Sa is the annual savings due to the SIF reducing ambulance calls for overdose, I is the annual number of injections in the SIF, o is the per-injection rate of overdose, c o and c i are the rates of overdose ambulance calls outside and inside the SIF, respec...
The estimated cost per ulcer-free week was 40% higher for Control ($85/closed-wound week) than for CCO + SSD ($61/closed-wound week). Conclusions CCO + SSD therapy is a cost-effective method of debridement in the management of patients with DFUs, providing better outcomes at ...

We emphasize that we do not present a null result; the hypothesis that SGAs are superior was clearly rejected. Third, quality of life is difficult to assess in schizophrenia, and insensitivity and imprecision of the QLS would have reduced power, although similarly in both trial arms. Further...
