The presence of a cable median barrier installed on foreslopes that were between 6H 1V and 10H 1V were associated with an increase in severe crash probabilities when compared to cable median barrier installations on foreslopes that were 10H 1V or flatter.
But a deliberate attack can be engineered to induce consequences similar to the most severe, low-probability accidents, yet the NRC's quantitative risk methodology does not take that into account.
A 'dose' or 'building block' effect has been described for PTSD [ 36] and psychotic symptoms [ 37]: with increasing number of traumata or more severe traumata, the probability to suffer from symptoms and a PTSD or the severity of psychotic symptoms increases.
Among patients who were younger than fifty-five or who had less severe conditions, the probability of death was actually lower for those treated under the more restrictive guidelines.
Although it is not possible to preclude the possibility of offsite early fatalities in a severe accident, the probability is extremely small, perhaps below the level at which it should be a key consideration in regulatory oversight.
In patients with clinical sepsis after severe burns the probability for Critical hyperglycemia is higher after the first week (Positive Predicted Value 38.71% ) This tells us that 2 of 5 patients with sepsis after the first week of the illness will demonstrate critical hyperglycemia.
Japanese and U.S. regulators share the same mindset that severe, supposedly 'low probability' accidents are unlikely and therefore it is not worth the time and money to protect plants from them.
A severe adverse event probability of 0.00123% is based on the estimate that 30% of TEN cases result in death (37 ).
(1-T0) is the smallest severe toxicity occurrence probability which, if true, implies that the therapeutic toxicity is unacceptable and the regimen does not warrant further investigation.
(1-T1) is the largest severe toxicity occurrence probability which, if true, implies that the therapeutic toxicity is acceptable and the regimen does warrant further investigation provided acceptable response rate.
