In our paper, we investigate the usage of mobile phone data to detect and characterize emergency and non-emergency events.
Our objective was to characterize emergency department (ED) visits for gastroenteritis by season and age and develop a predictive model.
To characterize emergency optometrist referrals triaged at a tertiary ophthalmology care centre by physical examination findings and provisional diagnosis accuracy.
To characterize emergency medical service (EMS) providers' perceptions of the factors that contribute to safety events and errors in the out-of-hospital emergency care of children.

In sub-Saharan Africa, the burden of surgical disease is characterized by emergency and essential procedures requiring immediate attention, in contrast to industrialized countries where 80%% of procedures are elective [ 7, 8].
Initially characterized as emergency responses to sudden stresses, it is now apparent that these responses are constantly responding to small perturbations in protein homeostasis and play vital roles in helping proteins become folded in the first place or in aiding misfolded proteins to regain their correct conformation (reviewed in Hartl et al., 2011).
The debate turns on whether diseases like cancer can be characterized as emergencies, or "epidemics".
Rather than relying on regional or national characteristics to encompass local variation, observing systems of emergency care through individual EDs meets the problem by employing the opposite approach, aggregating local data to characterize regional emergency care.
The task of characterizing different emergency departments (EDs) is complicated by the fact that a wide array of entities function as EDs.
