Assessing spatial heterogeneity of active layer thickness over Arctic-foothills tundra, North Slope Alaska

Abstract. Changes in active layer thickness (ALT) are used as an indicator of permafrost degradation. Increases in ALT can lead to increased greenhouse gas emissions, altered hydrology and ecology, ground instability, and a positive climate feedback. Quantifying ALT spatial heter...

Ribosomal protein bL27 protects translating ribosomes from tmRNA-SmpB

Bacterial ribosomal protein bL27 is universally conserved, and its amino terminus is adjacent to the peptidyl transfer center, yet its roles in translation remain unclear. Combining genetics, biochemistry, and molecular dynamics, we show that bL27 has an unexpected role in preven...

Effect of genetic factors on [18F]FDG PET metabolic phenotypes in dementia with Lewy bodies

BACKGROUND: F]FDG PET can support the diagnosis of Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), but it remains unclear how genetic factors influence metabolic phenotypes. OBJECTIVES: F]FDG PET metabolic patterns in DLB. METHODS: F]FDG PET scans from 43 patients with DLB stratified by GBA1 an...

Computing Hardware Request for College or University Degree

They are important Computing Minimum Hardware Specifications to enroll and complete a program in the faculty of arts & science [data science, mathematics, and/or Statistics]. We introduce a short guideline [it is possible to submit a hardware request to some institutions and Jour...

Lifetime Concussions and Head Impact Exposure During Collegiate Athletics: A CARE Consortium Study

OBJECTIVE: Despite a growing interest in the long-term effects of concussion and repetitive head impacts (RHIs) on brain health, understanding is limited regarding the clinical and cognitive changes that may accrue during collegiate athletics. METHODS: Collegiate student-athletes...

Characterizing emissions, chemistry, and health impacts of aged wildfire smoke in a western US city

Abstract. We report hourly surface observations of PM2.5, CO, NOx, O3, and 75 speciated VOCs in Missoula, Montana, during a strong smoke event in 2020. This study tests our current understanding of wildfire emissions, chemistry, and health effects as implemented in the GEOS-Chem...

Cataloguing & Referencing Art

In this document, we are creating a collection of objects, such as Internet Hyperlinks, Images, Quotes, etc. This activity is coherent with Mathematics Axiomatic Rules: At the beginning, there was an empty set, and the collection of objects create non-empty sets.

Duration of Therapeutic Hypothermia After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Importance Therapeutic hypothermia is widely used for neuroprotection following cardiac arrest, but clinical trials have not consistently demonstrated improved neurological outcomes, and the optimal duration of cooling remains uncertain. Objective To determine the duration of the...

Variation in Young Children’s Preschool Language Environments: The Role of Classroom Social Networks

Reasearch findings: Young children’s verbal interactions with teachers and peers in preschool settings are a key mechanism for development. Evidence suggests individual differences in children’s access to verbal interactions with teachers and peers in the classroom, yet such evid...

Failed metabolic adaptation to stress contributes to epidermal cell adhesion defects in Darier disease

Congenital pathogenic gene variants may not elicit symptoms until later in life, highlighting the importance of identifying extra-genetic factors influencing the onset and severity of heritable diseases. We explored this in Darier disease (DD or ATP2A2 -nEDD), an autosomal domina...

Examining Industrial Engineering Students’ Perceptions of Course Skills and Knowledge and Alignment with Their Interests

Representations of engineering work in the curriculum influence students’ perceptions of valued skills and knowledge in the field. Industrial engineering attracts a diverse group of students and is well positioned to incorporate longstanding calls for comprehensive skills because...

Perioperative care for patients with opioid exposure and opioid use disorder: screening and treatment strategies

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The prevalence of opioid tolerance, dependence, and use disorder is increasing among patients presenting for surgical care, yet perioperative management strategies for these patients remain inconsistent. This review examines the impact of preoperative opioid ex...

A rapid approach to detect methicillin-resistant and susceptible Staphylococcus aureus directly from clinical specimens

ABSTRACT Screening of methicillin-resistant/susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA/MSSA) is important for healthcare facilities to prevent hospital-acquired infections. The two common MRSA screening approaches are culture-based testing with selective and/or differential properti...

Variability in United States online rehabilitation protocols after open and endoscopic hip abductor repair

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate readily accessible U.S. based online physical therapy protocols for open and endoscopic hip abductor repairs and to assess the variability in post-operative rehabilitation protocols. METHODS: Online physical therapy protocols fro...

Urbanicity and County-Level Variation in Transitional Housing Placements for Transition-Age Youth in California Foster Care

The decentralized U.S. child welfare system has resulted in significant variation in practices and outcomes across states and counties. Despite growing attention to varying child welfare experiences based on urbanicity, particularly rural child welfare practice concerning younger...

Lasting Financial and Professional Impacts Among Survivors of Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer

BACKGROUND: Patients with early-onset colorectal cancer (age < 50) are vulnerable to unique psychosocial consequences given their developmental stage in life. Younger adults are often establishing their careers and families, and a cancer diagnosis can contribute to financial and...

Ferroelectric nitrogen-polar ScAlN heterostructures on 4H-SiC enabled by thin AlN buffer layers

The expansive functional landscape of ferroelectric nitrides has sharpened interest in host platforms that can preserve excellent structural quality while extending operation to high-temperature, harsh-environment regimes. 4H-SiC is especially compelling owing to its thermal robu...

Autonomous Oxygen Titration for Maintaining Normoxemia in Acutely Ill Adults

Importance For acutely ill adults who are hospitalized with hypoxemia, supplemental oxygen is titrated to maintain normoxemia. In current practice, clinicians intermittently titrate oxygen, potentially exposing patients to hypoxemia and hyperoxemia between assessments. Autonomous...
