Effectiveness of tuberculosis control programmes in prisons, Barcelona 1987-2000.

Setting: Different bodies have emphasised the need for prisons to implement and evaluate their own tuberculosis prevention and control programmes (TPCP), with the aims of evaluating TPCP in Barcelona prisons and obtaining conclusions that would allow any necessary modifications to be introduced to improve their effectiveness.

Methods: An assessment was carried out for the period 1987-2000, using the exhaustive retrospective method. The quantitative indicators used were defined in the same way as those employed by the Barcelona TPCP, which were taken as the gold standard.

Limits on extra dimensions and new particle production in the exclusive photon and missing energy signature in pp collisions at square root [s]=1.8 TeV.

The exclusive gammaE(T) signal has a small standard model cross section and is thus a channel sensitive to new physics. This signature is predicted by models with a superlight gravitino or with large extra spatial dimensions. We search for such signals at the Collider Detector at Fermilab, using 87 pb(-1) of data at square root [s]=1.

The presence of large missing transverse energy (E(T)), additional photons, or additional leptons in these events is also analyzed.
