Foot-and-mouth disease entrance assessment model through air passenger violations.
5 Jan 2009
This article aims to construct a risk model for the prediction of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) entrance caused by passengers who illegally carry meat products of cloven-hoofed animals through international airports into a country. The risk that meat ...

Transtibial prosthesis suspension failure during skydiving freefall: a case report.
30 Dec 2008
This report describes the unusual case of an everyday-use prosthesis suspension system failure during the freefall phase of a skydiving jump. The case individual was a 53-year-old male with a left transtibial amputation secondary to trauma. He used ...

[Health state of civil pilots in conditions of intensified piloting load]
30 Dec 2008
Studies of health state of civil pilots working in restrictedly increased piloting hours did not reveal negative influence of increased work loads (90 hours per month and 900 hours per year) on the examinees. In some parameters--medical ...

A helicopter flight does not induce significant changes in systemic biomarker profiles.
30 Dec 2008
Whole-body vibration and noise are inherent characteristics of helicopter operations. The helicopter pilot is affected by vibration from both low-frequency noise and mechanical vibration sources. The way this energy is transmitted to different ...

The effect of free fly expertise on cervical joint position sense: a pilot study.
30 Dec 2008
This study aimed to assess the effect of free fly expertise on cervical joint position sense. To this aim, four young elite freeflyers and 20 young sportsmen nonfreeflyers were asked to perform the cervicocephalic relocation test to the neutral head ...

The effect of hypoxia on the critical flicker fusion threshold in pilots.
30 Dec 2008
OBJECTIVES: Human reactions to environmental changes have been the subject of numerous investigations related to pathophysiology, aviation psychology, aviation, and sports. The present study aimed at evaluating the perception of light stimulus via ...

[Individual psychological attributes of civil pilots with atherosclerotic cerebral vessels]
30 Dec 2008
Object of investigation was types of personality of civil pilots. The investigation involved healthy pilots (n = 58, controls) and pilots afflicted with cerebral atherosclerosis (n = 67) including pilots with atherosclerotic plaques (n = 23). The ...
