The Chandra Source Catalog (CSC) is a general purpose virtual X-ray astrophysics facility that provides access to carefully selected set of generally useful quantities for individual sources, and designed satisfy the needs broad-based group scientists, including those who may be less familiar with astronomical data analysis in regime. first release CSC includes information about 94,676 distinct sources detected subset public ACIS imaging observations from roughly eight years mission. This...
Abstract Purpose Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) are a significant public health concern characterized by memory decline that, over time, leads to loss of independence. This study reports ADRD diagnosis rates among Medicare beneficiaries aged ≥ 65 years in rural America. Methods We conducted descriptive analysis Fee‐for‐Service (FFS) Advantage enrollees using administrative data from 2020. Combining FFS produces more complete representative sample older adults than previous...
We have developed a simple compact electron impact laboratory source of UV radiation whose relative intensity as function wavelength has an accuracy traceable to the fundamental physical constants (transitions probabilities and excitation cross sections) for atomic or molecular system. Using this source, calibrated optically thin vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectra been obtained synthetic spectral models important band systems H2 N2 n1P0 Rydberg series He. The model spectrum from represents...
Teen dating violence (TDV) is a preventable public health problem that has negative consequences for youth. Despite evidence youth in urban communities with high crime and economic disadvantage may be at particularly risk TDV, little work specifically addressed TDV these communities. The Centers Disease Control Prevention (CDC) developed comprehensive approach to prevent TDV-Dating Matters™: Strategies Promote Healthy Relationships-that addresses gaps research practice. This Report from CDC...
To assess the co-occurrence of past-month physical assault a dating partner and violence against peers siblings among locally representative sample high school students to explore correlates (DV) perpetration.
Abstract Purpose This report compares COVID‐19 incidence and mortality rates in the nonmetropolitan areas of United States with metropolitan across three 11‐week periods from March 1 to October 18, 2020. Methods County‐level case, death, population counts were downloaded USAFacts.org. The 2013 NCHS Urban‐Rural Classification Scheme was collapsed into two categories called (large central, large fringe, medium, small metropolitans) (micropolitan/noncore). Daily computed show temporal trends...
Abstract The Interactive Systems Framework (ISF) for Dissemination and Implementation presents an overall framework translating knowledge into action. Each of its three systems requires further clarification explanation to truly understand how conduct this work. This article describes the development initial application Rapid Synthesis Translation Process (RSTP) using exchange model transfer in context one ISF systems: Prevention System (see [special issue “introduction” article] a...
The transition process for young physically disabled people (n = 87) was studied in three districts to determine how it varied between schools, and perceived by the their carers. experiences of were compared with guidelines good practice based on relevant legislation. Results showed that experienced a poor handover adult services if they had no "statement special educational need" or went further education college. Young cerebral palsy complex multiple problems fared less well than those...
The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact rural hospital closures on age-adjusted hospitalization rates for ambulatory care sensitive condition (ACSC) and emergency (ECSC) associated outcomes, such as length stay in-hospital mortality in service areas (HSAs) that utilized closed hospital.We used State Inpatient Data from Healthcare Cost Utilization Project 9 states 2010 2017 classified admissions ACSC or ECSC. We compared admission (LOS) ECSC age adjusted rate among ZIP codes HSAs...
African American adolescents (132 males and 128 females; age M = 14.8 years, SD 0.92) enrolled in an urban community social skills development program participated a study assessing the relationship among perceptions of family support, fear calamitous events, depression, anger expression. Expressing events that were considered harmful but not necessarily lethal was related to increased whereas expressing Results are discussed terms issues race, gender, adolescent development.
The experience and responsibility of addressing diversity issues in independent schools is the focus this article. Open-ended interviews were conducted with coordinators a large urban area Northeast. Coordinators asked about their roles within participation study on race school. Five major themes emerged around issue racial tokenism that described tensions face. They included marginalized isolation “being only one,” school system resistance toward defining diversity, perception Blackness,...
The first release of the Chandra Source Catalog (CSC) contains ∼95,000 X-ray sources in a total area 0.75% entire sky, using data from ∼3900 separate ACIS observations multitude different types sources. In order to maximize scientific benefit such large, heterogeneous set, careful characterization statistical properties catalog, i.e., completeness, sensitivity, false source rate, and accuracy properties, is required. Characterization efforts other large catalogs, as ChaMP Point or 2...
<h3>Objective:</h3> To investigate the importance of stratification by risk factors in computing probability a second death from sudden infant syndrome (SIDS) family. <h3>Design:</h3> Simulation study. <h3>Background:</h3> The fact that baby dies suddenly and unexpectedly means there is raised baby's family have associated with SIDS. Thus one cannot consider subsequent to be general population. Confidential Enquiry into Stillbirths Deaths Infancy (CESDI) identified three major social...
