Abstract: Among other things, data is stored for each of several pharmaceuticals that are associated with a given indication. The data is representative of elements of value of the pharmaceutical including elements within the domains of clinical efficacy, safety and use, and economics. A computer is used to calculate a drug score for each of the pharmaceuticals based on the data that is representative of the elements of value. Through a user interface, the relative scores and the basis on which they were calculated are displayed to enable decisions about the pharmaceuticals.

Abstract: A staging valve arrangement is described that comprises an arrangement of electrically driven staging valves that are located, in use, in the high temperature core zone of an engine. Each staging valve may comprise a housing having an inlet, a pilot flow outlet and a mains flow outlet, a valve member movable between a closed position in which the mains flow outlet is closed and an open position in which the mains flow outlet is open, a motor operable to drive the valve member for movement, and a cooling arrangement.

Abstract: A control system is described that comprises a manifold, at least one valve device operable to control the delivery of fluid from the manifold, and a drive member located within the manifold and rotatable to control the operation of the at least one valve device.

Abstract: A healthcare risk index is generated using a patient or individual's pharmacy claims. The index may be used to explain and predict variation in pharmacy-related costs and variation in total healthcare costs or utilization. In particular, the index is generated by first examining the individual's pharmacy claims to identify any chronic conditions possessed by the individual. Similarly, the individual's pharmacy claims are examined to identify any compliance medications prescribed to the individual. The chronic condition information is used to generate a chronic condition score by summing regression coefficients for each chronic condition possessed by the individual. Likewise, the compliance medication information is used to generate a compliance medication score by summing products of regression coefficients for each compliance medication prescribed to the individual with associated medication supply weights.

Abstract: A vehicle data recording system has connections to one or more analog sensors, and stores data from the sensor(s) in a memory during laps of a track. The system provides for analog/digital conversion for converting analog data from the sensor(s) into digital data, and triggers a procedure for storing of the data in memory. Periods of storing of the data in memory are automatically started and stopped. The system stores in memory a set of data for a datum period and has means for storing further sets of data in a memory. A set of data stored during a first period is compared with a set of data stored during a further period and one of the sets of data is selected for retention in memory in accordance with a predetermined algorithm. The retained set of data is compared with the datum set and differences between the datum set and the selected set are output.
