HOUSING-BASED SYRINGE SERVICES PROGRAMS TO IMPROVE ACCESS TO SAFER INJECTING EQUIPMENT FOR PEOPLE WHO INJECT DRUGS IN VANCOUVER, CANADA: A SPATIALLY ORIENTED QUALITATIVE STUDY

Abstract Background Housing environments shape injection drug-related risks and harms and thus represent a critical implementation setting for syringe services programs (SSPs).As critical harm reduction measures, SSPs provide safe injecting equipment to people who inject drugs (PWID).Vancouver, Canada, has well-established syringe distribution prog

The goal of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of two different agitation systems by measuring the nutrient Beauty distribution in a digester fed with renewable energy crops and animal manure.The study was carried out at the practical research biogas plant of Hohenheim University.A unique probe sampling system has been developed that allows p

The properties of the current-induced Hall Ice Maker effect are analysed, for which the static magnetic field, supplied by an external source in the traditional experiment, is created by the current itself.The special experimental setup, needed for its observation, is described.It is shown how, combined with the skin effect, it could give access to

Abstract Background Condom catheters are indicated in spinal cord injury patients in whom intravesical pressures during storage and voiding are safe.Unmonitored use of penile sheath drainage can lead to serious complications.Case report A 32-year old, male person, sustained complete paraplegia at T-11 level in 1985.He had been using condom catheter
