The Venus bow shock location has been measured at nearly 2000 crossings, and its dependence on solar EUV, wind conditions, the interplanetary magnetic field determined. position terminator varies from about 2.14 radii minimum to 2.40 maximum. of little with dynamic pressure but strongly Mach number. is farthest side planet in which newly created ions gyrate away ionosphere. When perpendicular flow, cross section quite elliptical. This effect appears be due anisotropic propagation fast...
To determine the trends of infection sites and outcome sepsis using a national population-based database.Using Nationwide Inpatient Sample database US, adult hospitalizations were identified validated approach that selects admissions with explicit ICD-9-CM codes for diagnosis/procedure acute organ dysfunctions. The primary was trend incidence in-hospital mortality specific in patients. secondary impact on mortality.During 9-year period, we 7,860,687 sepsis. Genitourinary tract (36.7%), lower...
Coronavirus (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) outbreak is a public health emergency and global pandemic. During the present disease (COVID-19) crisis, telemedicine has been recommended to screen suspected patients limit risk of exposure maximise medical staff protection. We constructed protective physical barrier with technology COVID-19 in ED. Our hospital an urban community annual ED volume approximately 50 000 patients. equipped our patient exam room intercom iPad for...
Utrophin is normally confined to the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) in adult muscle and partially compensates for loss of dystrophin mdx mice. We show that Akt signaling utrophin levels were diminished sarcospan (SSPN)-deficient muscle. By creating several transgenic knockout mice, we demonstrate SSPN regulates control expression. determined α-dystroglycan (α-DG) glycosylation by affecting NMJ-specific glycosyltransferase Galgt2. After cardiotoxin (CTX) injury, regenerating myofibers express...
Abstract Background : Little is known about pulmonary embolism (PE) in the United States emergency department (ED). This study aimed to describe disease burden (visit rate and hospitalization) of PE ED investigate factors associated with its burden. Methods Data were obtained from National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NHAMCS) 2010 2018. Adult visits identified using International Classification Diseases codes. Analyses used descriptive statistics multivariable logistic regression...

Introduction: Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death and long-term disability in United States with an estimated prevalence 7 million individuals affected as 2019. Protocols for stroke management established by American Heart Association (AHA) (ASA) include a 25-minute timeframe from door to CT time (DTCT). Adapting challenges during COVID-19 pandemic likely increased DTCT acute patients various sociodemographic backgrounds. Methods: We aimed identify factors affecting cohort over 23,000...
To investigate the potential impact of implementing alternatives to opioids (ALTOs) protocol in a community emergency department (ED) North Texas. We hypothesize that ALTO is associated with decreased opioid utilization without affecting patient satisfaction pain control and ED flow. A retrospective, single-center, cohort study. An urban ED. Adult patients (age >18 years old) who received medications during study timeframe were included. total 34,251 included for final analysis. Patients...
Introduction: Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death and long-term disability in United States. The current guideline for stroke management includes a 25 min timeframe from door-to-computed tomography time (DTCT). However, sociodemographic backgrounds may impact DTCT acute patients. Methods: This was retrospective, multicenter, cohort study between January 2018 August 2022 throughout North Texas. primary endpoint ≤ upon arrival to hospital all patients suspected ischemic stroke. Results:...
Sarcospan (SSPN) is a core component of the major adhesion complexes in skeletal muscle, dystrophin– and utrophin (Utr)–glycoprotein (DGC UGC). We performed rigorous analysis SSPN-null mice discovered that loss SSPN decreased DGC UGC abundance, leading to impaired laminin-binding activity susceptibility eccentric contraction-induced injury muscle. show increased levels α7β1 integrin. To genetically test whether integrin compensates for function SSPN-nulls, we generated lacking both α7 (DKO,...
Medication exposure is a potential risk factor for falls and subsequent death functional decline among older adults. However, controversy remains on the best way to assess medication which approach predicts falls. The objective of current study was examine association between different measures community-dwelling adults.This retrospective cohort conducted using Falls Free PA program data linked prescription claims from Pennsylvania's Pharmaceutical Assistance Contract Elderly program....
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene that result loss of dystrophin–glycoprotein complex, a laminin receptor connects myofiber to its surrounding extracellular matrix. Utrophin, ortholog normally localized neuromuscular junction, naturally upregulated DMD muscle, which partially compensates for dystrophin. Transgenic overexpression utrophin causes broad sarcolemma localization utrophin, restoration binding and amelioration disease mdx mouse model...
Alert fatigue is a common issue with off-the-shelf clinical decision support. Most warnings for drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are overridden or ignored, likely because they lack relevance to the patient's situation. Existing alerting systems DDIs often simplistic in nature do not take specific patient context into consideration, leading overly sensitive alerts. The objective of this study develop, validate, and test DDI alert algorithms that advantage available electronic health records...
Background and Objectives: Systemic analgesics, including opioids, are commonly used for acute pain control in traumatic hip fracture patients the emergency department (ED). However, their use is associated with high rates of adverse reactions geriatric population. As such, aim this study was to investigate impact lidocaine-based single-shot ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block (USFNB) on standard care management ED. Methods: This retrospective, single-center, observational included adult...
