Importance Emergency departments (EDs) with high pediatric readiness (coordination, personnel, quality improvement, safety, policies, and equipment) are associated lower mortality among children critical illness those admitted to trauma centers, but the benefit more diverse clinical conditions is unknown. Objective To evaluate association between ED readiness, in-hospital mortality, 1-year injured medically ill receiving emergency care in 11 states. Design, Setting, Participants This a...

Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA) is prevalent in the United States. Each year between 180,000 and 400,000 people die due to arrest. The automated external defibrillator (AED) has greatly enhanced survival rates for OOHCA. However, one of important components successful treatment emergency medical services (EMS) response time (i.e., from EMS "wheels rolling" until arrival at OOHCA scene). Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have regularly been used remote sensing aerial imagery collection,...

AbstractCluster analysis continues to be an important exploratory technique in scientific inquiry. It is used widely geography, public health, criminology, ecology, and many other fields. Spatial cluster detection driven by geographic information corresponding the location of activities, requiring appropriate meaningful treatment space spatial relationships combined with observed attributes events. To date, this has meant utilizing dedicated measures techniques structure account for...

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission and excessive fuel consumption have become a pressing issue nowadays. Particularly, CO2 emissions from transportation account for approximately one-quarter of global since 2016. Electric vehicle (EV) is considered an appealing option to address the aforementioned concerns. However, with growing EV market, issues such as insufficient charging infrastructure support ever-increasing demand emerge well. Effectively forecasting commercial ensures reliability...

The current study examined the impact of a mental health court (MHC) on recovery, criminogenic needs, and recidivism in sample 196 community-based offenders with illness. Using pre-post design, recovery needs were assessed at time MHC referral discharge. File records reviewed to score Level Service/Risk-Need-Responsivity instrument (Andrews, Bonta, & Wormith, 2008) capture coding guide was used extract information each point. Only data available 12 months post-MHC involvement. Recidivism...

The present investigation examined the predictive validity of Level Service/Risk–Need–Responsivity (LS/RNR) instrument for general and violent recidivism in a sample 138 community-supervised adult mentally disordered offenders. General Risk/Need section was strongly recidivism, whereas Specific most predicted recidivism. Among males, produced large effect size outcomes females were best by section. Across diagnostic subgroups, sections but not recidivism; however, many subgroups small,...

Sustainable development of the transport system has been consensus around world for past decades. Encouraged by urgent need cleaner alternatives to fossil fuels, vehicle electrification advancing at an unprecedented pace. As a major component multimodal transportation system, public transit is forefront adopting battery technology into its operation. Battery Electric Bus (BEB), with superior features such as zero-emission and reduced noise, made ready commercial deployment in several years....

OBJECTIVES We evaluated spatial clustering of pediatric firearm injuries using national 9–1–1 emergency medical services (EMS) responses, locations where these events occurred, and geographic changes over time. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2022 EMS responses for children in 50 states the National Information Systems (NEMSIS). For 37 with continuous data period, we included aged 0 to 17 years response including transports, nontransports,...

Neighborhood delineation is increasingly relied upon in urban social science research to identify the most appropriate spatial unit. In problems of this type, true number neighborhoods (typically called k parameter) unknown and analysts often require algorithmic approaches determine endogenously. Existing for neighborhood that do not pre-specification a k-parameter, however, are either nonspatial or lead noncontiguous overlapping regions. paper, we propose use max-p-regions so geographic...

In light of the growing concerns global climate change, pace transportation electrification has greatly accelerated in recent years as an effort towards net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, it remains unclear how to effectively deploy and operate public charging infrastructure best serve electrified system within a multi-modal context while maximizing benefits decarbonization. This is especially true when considering GHG emitted by generating one kWh electricity, i.e....
