A low-yielding paygo system can benefit individuals if it contributes to hedge other risks to their lifetime resources.
For precancerous lesions, resources used over a 1-year period from the date of diagnosis were collected; for CC, lifetime resources were collected (from diagnosis until either death or cure).
The authors in [26] developed a generalized power consumption model to address the optimization of network lifetime and resource allocation for wireless video sensor networks (WVSNs).
While a few retrospective longitudinal studies [ 7- 11] have estimated the cost of metastatic lung cancer in the US, these studies employed varied designs and methods (i.e., in terms of patient populations, disease definitions, and measure of healthcare costs), did not track lifetime healthcare resource use and costs, or did not analyze cost components by setting or type of service.
While men are the victims of approximately one in ten rapes and an estimated one in six men will experience some form of sexual assault in their lifetime, few resources exist that specifically focus on male victims.
As discussed in the section 'Cost-time analysis for the CityCat simulations' the main benefits of using the Cloud come more from the rapid provisioning of resources to meet immediate deadlines rather than the cost-effectiveness of resources, especially over the whole lifetime of a resource.
If unrecoverable coal is considered in the recoverable reserves, the lifetime of the resource could be extended by a couple hundred years.
If unrecoverable coal is considered in the reserves, the lifetime of this resource would be greatly extended, by perhaps a couple hundred years.
Using a computer simulation model based on the outcomes of EMPHASIS-HF to replicate the trial outcomes, extrapolate these over a patient's lifetime and capture resource and health-related quality-of-life (utility) consequences produced incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) of £3520 per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) for the UK and €5532 for Spain.
Evaluating this prediction requires information on the phenotypic selection and quantitative genetics of life-history trait variation in relation to individual lifetime access to resources.
