The sensitivities of a 38°C cutpoint on oral, TM and TA measures to detect a rectal temperature of 38°C or higher were: 37.0%, 68.3% and 71.1%, respectively (oral vs TM and TA p<0.001). The corresponding specificities were 99.4%, 98.2% and 92.3% (oral, TM and TA) with oral ...
For example, an absolute temperature reading in a nuclear power plant may be acceptable if it is part of a decreasing trend, but may signal a problem if it represents an increase. Some initial work has been reported in this area, but as yet there has been little integration of rule ...
This study reports the feasibility of infrared radiometer for measuring the surface temperature dynamics in the aggressive sewer conditions. The infrared sensor was comprehensively evaluated in the laboratory at different environmental conditions. Then, the sensor suite was deployed in a Sydney based sewer...
The research protocol was conducted on the same day in the morning (10:00 to 14:00) in stable weather conditions (sunny, windless weather, and an ambient temperature of 10–12°C). The pitch surface was dry during all training sessions. ETL measurement The variables characterizing the ...

Mesh data types have not yet been addressed systematically from a coverage perspective, not to speak about issues of integrating them and converting between different representations – starting with regular versus irregular grids, up to grids versus meshes. Notably, all these issues have been ...
(mean ± sem) versus curvature (mean ± sem). Each point is the mean value (± sem) among 10 control animals for a given PositionMLat a given color-coded developmental time. For each developmental time, a line passing through the origin was fitted (R2values for each developmental...
The lower right plot box shows the estimated long-term trends versus reconstructed records during observation periods of each site. The upper left small plot box is the R; The reconstructed R is calculated with river discharge divided by drainage area; the simulated R is the average over ...
the inland sites experienced more day-to-day climate variability, which resulted in more fluctuations in disease cases. As a result, the occurrence and persistence of suitable temperature, rainfall, and humidity conditions enabling outbreaks were less regular in sites with more climate variability. The...
Evidence suggests that human timing ability is compromised by heat. In particular, some studies suggest that increasing body temperature speeds up an internal clock, resulting in faster time perception. However, the consequences of this speed-up for othe
