Prevalence and evaluation of potential abbreviations in intensive care documentation
Creators: name: Brundage, David M.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Introduction: Abbreviations are often used in clinical documentation to reduce time spent documenting in electronic health records and to save space during documentation. Abbreviations represent a specific challenge in healthcare as they can often contain multiple means. This ambiguous use of abbreviations is a patient safety issue for clinicians who do not properly understand the intended use of the abbreviation and presents a health literacy issue to patients as they try and understand what a provider’s note says about the care provided. Plenty of research has been done on a clinician’s ability to disambiguate abbreviations, but little work has been done to assess how clinicians are using abbreviations or creating tools to assist administrators and clinicians to explore the documentation of their providers.Methods: A semi-supervised approach was taken to identify potential abbreviations within the MIMIC-III database. Over 400 million-word tokens were compared to a list approved abbreviation for Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital. The results of this semi-supervised identification were used to analyze the use of abbreviations and prevalence of abbreviations within the dataset.Results: 463,175,566 raw word tokens were compared to a list of 1,742 approved abbreviations. On average, every document within MIMIC contained almost 14 abbreviation tokens, or roughly 9% of an average note is comprised of potential abbreviations. Some notes contained almost 26% of potential abbreviation tokens. The average count of potential abbreviations for a note created by an RN is 21.87, and the average count of potential abbreviations in a note created by an MD is 11.39. There is a substantial difference in the number of abbreviations used in a note by an RN and MD. MIMIC note events contain a substantial amount of abbreviations >= 5%.Conclusion: Using the MIMIC data set we have shown that clinical abbreviations and complex clinical jargon make up a specific amount of provider documentation. 8.22% of total words within the MIMIC note events table is a term found within the Beth Israel Deaconess approved abbreviation list. We have also shown that there is the capability to replace abbreviations in medical text to provide additional context to patients.

description: Brine-bearing formations hold significant potential for long-term storage and disposal of greenhouse gases, particularly the large volumes of CO2 produced as a byproduct of fossil fuel combustion. The extensive industry experience in underground injection for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), gas storage, and deep-well waste injection demonstrates the feasibility of disposal into geologic environments using existing technology. Moreover, it is feasible that the residence time for injected CO2 would be adequate to prevent significant negative impacts on overlying potable water or the atmosphere. Several ongoing and planned projects indicate that underground injection technologies are transferable to the injection of CO2 for the purpose of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, brine formations are typically underutilized, resulting in a lack of comprehensive documentation of subsurface properties in easily accessible formats. Realistic and quantitative information about the relevant characteristics of the subsurface is essential for assessing the feasibility, costs, and risks of various options for CO2 disposal in brine formations. In this study, we have compiled and integrated a database of realistic properties of brine formations. This database is designed with a geographic structure in a geographic information system (GIS) so that it can be used to match CO2 emitters with prospective sinks.

Comments
Three color morphotypes are shown in Figure 6, including the black (Fig. 6A), white-spined (Fig. 6B) and banded forms (Fig. 6C). The black and white-spined forms were more common than the banded forms. Debris was observed on the black-spined form (Fig. 6A).
Echinothrix calamaris was identified by the presence of an adapical median zone in each interambulacra, which was naked and usually green, and a periproctal membrane and large anal tube possessed of many small, but very conspicuous, white spots.
Specimens were observed at Bluff Island, Trio Island and Shek Ngau Chau Island on rocky and coralline substrates in 5–15 meter depths.

description: More than 13 billion barrels (Bbbl) of mobile oil and 17 Bbbl of residual oil will remain in the San Andres and Grayburg reservoir at abandonment under current development practices. Through the development and application of new recovery technology, a large part of this resource can be recovered. This report focuses on research for the development and testing of new techniques for improving recovery of this resource. Outcrop and subsurface geologic and engineering data are utilized to develop new methodologies through the integration of geologic observations and engineering data for improving numerical models that predict reservoir performance more accurately. Extensive regional mapping of the 14-mile by 1,200-foot San Andres outcrop, located on the Algerita Escarpment, Guadalupe Mountains, New Mexico, demonstrates that the San Andres carbonate-ramp complex is composed of multiple depositional sequences that have significant basinward shifts in reservoir-quality facies tracts occurring across sequence boundaries. Detailed geologic and petrophysical mapping of three reservoir-quality facies tracts demonstrates that the fundamental scale of geologic description for reservoir characterization is the parasequence and its component rock-fabric-based facies. Descriptions of cores from the Seminole San Andres Unit illustrate that the parasequence is also the fundamental geologic scale for reservoir mapping in the subsurface.

FIGURE 7
Comments
A familiar urchin species which is heavily documented elsewhere and is only briefly touched upon here, observed from Tsim Chau, Long Ke and Tung Ping Chau at 2–10 m in rocky and coral habitats. This species has been heavily studied in a wide range of topics, including a model for phylogeography (e.g. Bronstein & Loya 2013; McCartney et al. 2000) and ecology (e.g. McClanahan & Kurtis 1991; Hiratsuka & Uehara 2007). This species is known for creating and inhabiting bored concavities in rocky substrates (e.g. McClanahan & Kurtis 1991). It feeds on plants and encrusting organisms, especially sponges (Schultz 2015).
Although historically recorded as a wide-ranging Indo-West Pacific species, as outlined in Clark & Liao (1995), recent phylogenetic work (e.g. Bronstein & Loya 2013; McCartney et al. 2000) suggests multiple lineage within what had previously been considered a single wide-ranging species, notably that lineages from the Indian Ocean are separate from those in the tropical Pacific (Bronstein & Loya 2013).
This species is differentiated from the similarly elongated Parasalenia by having a much larger apical system with characteristically pointed genital plates and more distinct white rings around the spines.
Occurrence/Distribution
Hong Kong, 2–10.0 m.
Outside Hong Kong, Southern China, throughout the Indo-Pacific, Hawaii, Guam, Bali, Okinawa, Great Barrier Reef (Australia). 0–30 m [E. mathaei in the Indian Ocean is a different taxon from the Pacific, following Bronstein & Loya 2013; McCartney et al. 2000 and in part Clark & Liao (1995)].

The experimental input consists of the latest proton thresholds of $^{64}$Ge and $^{65}$As, and the nuclear spectroscopic information of $^{65}$As, whereas the theoretical nuclear spectroscopic information for $^{64}$Ge and $^{65}$As are deduced from the full pf-shell space configuration-interaction shell-model calculations with the GXPF1A Hamiltonian. Both thermonuclear reaction rates are determined with known uncertainties at the energies that correspond to the Gamow windows of the temperature regime relevant to Type I X-ray bursts, covering the typical temperature range of the thermonuclear runaway of the GS 1826$-$24 periodic bursts and SAX J1808.4$-$3658 photospheric radius expansion bursts.

description: Characterization of a carbonate reservoir for fluid flow simulation is a highly complicated task. What is clear is that the end product must be a three-dimensional numerical image of petrophysical properties: porosity, fluid saturation, permeability, and relative permeability. The principal problems are (1) determining petrophysical values to be imaged and (2) distributing petrophysical values in space. Petrophysical properties are determined by measurements on core and outcrop material, by calculations using wireline log data, and by well tests and tracers. Methods of distributing the petrophysical values usually involve a combination of geologic and statistical modeling. This report emphasizes wireline log calculations and geologic modeling using a rock-fabric approach developed in outcrop studies (Lucia and others, 1992; Senger and others, 1993; Kerans and others, 1994). The approach is to construct a detailed chronostratigraphic framework using sequences of geologic features that are related to water depth and to fill the framework with petrophysical attributes using relationships between rock-fabric and petrophysical properties. Geologic and petrophysical studies of the San Andres Formation in Lawyer Canyon, Algerita Escarpment, Guadalupe Mountains of New Mexico, suggest that (1) petrophysical properties are near-randomly distributed within rock-fabric facies; (2) rock-fabric facies are systematically stacked within high-frequency cycles (HFC's); (3) rock-fabric facies can have significantly different petrophysical properties; (4) vertical changes in properties can be abrupt, whereas lateral changes are gradual; and (5) thin, discontinuous, tight mudstone beds are effective vertical barriers to fluid flow. These findings have been applied to a detailed reservoir characterization study of two sections of the Seminole San Andres Unit operated by Amerada Hess Corporation.

Comments
This species is known to bore into the rock face (Clark & Liao 1995) and can withdraw deeper within the opening when disturbed, as observed in Figure 8. This species displays the dark or lighter purple spines on the upper side and the white spines on the oral side. Echinostrephus molaris is rarely observed in Hong Kong, with only one sighting during our survey. This is consistent with statements by Liao & Clark (1995) who stated that it was an infrequently encountered species in southern China. Only two specimens have been reported from Xincun, Hainan Island (Liao & Clark 1995). The observation documented here is new for Hong Kong.

description: The stochastic nature of star formation and photon propagation in high-redshift galaxies can result in sizable galaxy-to-galaxy scatter in their properties. Ignoring this scatter by assuming mean quantities can bias estimates of their emissivity and corresponding observables. We construct a flexible, semi-empirical model, sampling scatter around the following mean relations: (i) the conditional halo mass function (CHMF); (ii) the stellar-to-halo mass relation (SHMR); (iii) galaxy star formation main sequence (SFMS); (iv) fundamental metallicity relation (FMR); (v) conditional intrinsic luminosity; and (vi) photon escape fraction. In our fiducial model, ignoring scatter in these galaxy properties overestimates the duration of the EoR, delaying its completion by up to $Δz$ ~ 2. We quantify the relative importance of each of the above sources of scatter in determining the ionizing, soft-band X-ray and Lyman Werner (LW) emissivities as a function of scale and redshift. We find that scatter around the SFMS is important for all bands, especially at the highest redshifts where the emissivity is dominated by the faintest, most "bursty" galaxies. Ignoring this scatter would underestimate the mean emissivity and its standard deviation computed over 5 cMpc regions by factors of up to $\sim$2-10 at $5< z < 15$. Scatter around the X-ray luminosity to star formation rate relation is important for determining X-ray emissivity, accounting for roughly half of its mean and standard deviation. The importance of scatter in the ionizing escape fraction depends on its functional form, while scatter around the SHMR contributes at the level of ~10-20%. Although scatter does flatten the UV luminosity functions, shifting the bright end by 1-2 magnitudes, the level of scatter in our fiducial model is insufficient to fully explain recent estimates from JWST photometry (consistent with previous studies).

FIGURE 9A–B
Comments
Heliocidaris crassispina lives on hard substrates in shallow-water dominated by heavy wave action. It has been described as “one of the most common representatives of the subtidal, rocky shore fauna” (Chiu 1988a: 115) in Hong Kong. Hong Kong populations of this species has been extensively studied by Chiu (1988a, 1988b, 1988 c, 1990) who characterized habitat, distribution, algal grazing, reproductive biology, age and growth. Reproduction was studied by Urriago et al. (2016).
Heliocidaris crassispina was previously placed in the genus Anthocidaris and prior records of this species from Hong Kong and Asia (Liao & Clark 1995; Shigei 1986) were documented as Anthocidaris crassispina before being synonymized by Hart (2011).
In situ Observation
One individual (Fig. 9A) was observed with multiple spines covered by strands of white tissue on the spines and spine tips. A second individual (Fig. 9B) was observed entangled in the tissue of an unidentified jellyfish. Although it was unclear if the jellyfish tissue was present around the mouth, it is possible the urchin was scavenging.

description: Since their inception, superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors have been enabling quantum optical applications and the rise of the photonic quantum industry. The evolution in the detector design and read-out strategies has led to the introduction of devices with a plurality of independent pixels, which have been able to operate with high system detection efficiency at high speed while also supporting photon number resolution capabilities. However, this comes at the cost of a complex readout that requires one coaxial cable for each pixel of the array. Here, we report a 28-pixel SNSPD with a dedicated parallel architecture that, while maintaining a simple readout with a single coaxial line, enables the detector to operate at high speed with low-performance degradation. The device shows a maximum single-photon efficiency of 88% and is able to maintain its efficiency above 50%, coupled with a timing jitter lower than 80 ps, up to a detection rate of 200 million counts per second. The detector also provides state-of-the-art photon-number-resolving performances with a 2-photon efficiency of 75% and a 3-photon efficiency of 62%.

description: Objective: Studies that describe the characteristics of injuries in patients with multiple pre-existing mental altering comorbidities are limited. Therefore, the main objective of this research is to study a full spectrum of the patterns of traumatic injuries in patients who were pre-disposed to have mental alteration as a result of selected pre-existing co-morbidities. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of trauma patients ≥10 years old based on the data from the NTDB. Patients with the diagnosis of pre-existing mental altering co-morbidities were identified using ICD-10 diagnosis codes. Descriptive and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed using demographic variables and injury characteristics to identify the associations between MOI, PMAC and the intents of injuries in the patients who visited the trauma centers of participating hospitals in the United States.Results: A total of 1,032,919 patients with the diagnosis of traumatic injuries age between 10 to 89 years old were analyzed. Of this number 200,700(17.6%) were patients with PMAC (targets) and the rest 832,219(73.0%) were patients without documented PMAC (controls), Male=677,943(59.43%) and female=462,570(40.55%). The average age of all injured patients was 47 (SD± 24.66) years old. Overall more geriatric female patients [19,628(9.780%)] with PMAC (age 80-89) suffered from traumatic injuries mainly fall (69.0%) and this was prominent in white (Not Latino) racial group. Self-harm was more prevalent in male target patients (31%). Major psychiatric illness was slightly more prevalent in female targets (20.02%) while substance use disorders in male targets (drug=18.78%, alcohol=14.21%), more than three times higher than the females. There were more common statistically significant (P<0.001) MOI (W01.0XXA the most common) that caused injuries in the target patients. Female patients with substance use disorder (alcohol) major psychiatric illness and CVA had a more predicted probability for fall injury of W01.0XXA (P<0.0001 for all). Male target patients with drug use disorder had the highest probability of getting an assault injury (X93.XXXA) followed by male patients with alcohol use disorder and female patients with drug use disorder. Self-inflicted intents were more prevalent (3.7%) in the target patients and the comparison of the proportion to controls was statistically significant (p<0.0001).Conclusion: Over all female target patients were found to have higher predicted probabilities for fall and exposure, transport accidents, and assault injuries. But we still need more structured prospective studies to be done to substantiate this finding. The fact that traumatic injuries were more prevalent in female older target patients will remain an important point of future investigation.
Investigation of a novel decision support metric for head and neck adaptive radiation therapy (ART) using a real-time in-vivo portal dosimetry system

description: In adaptive radiation therapy (ART) of head and neck cancer, any significant anatomical changes observed are used to adapt the treatment plan to maintain target coverage without elevating the xerostomia risk. However, the additional resources required for ART pose a challenge for broad-based implementation. It is hypothesized that the transit fluence change is associated with volumetric change in the vicinity of the target and therefore can be used as a decision support metric (DMS) for ART. This was evaluated by comparing the fluence with volumetric changes in twenty-four patients. Transit fluence was measured by an in-vivo portal dosimetry system (RTPD). Weekly cone beam computed-tomography (CBCT) was used to determine volume change in the rectangular region of interest (ROI) from condyloid process to C6. The integrated fluence through the ROI and the salivary glands (SG) on the day of the CBCT scan was calculated with the first treatment as the baseline. The correlation between fluence and volume changes was determined. Logistic regression was also used to associate the 5% ROI volume reduction replanning trigger-point and the fluence change. The model was assessed by a chi-squared test. The area (AUC) under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was also determined. The xerostomia risk was assessed by the scores change of the patients’ MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory (MDADI). The association of the MDADI with age, gender, mean dose to SG, weight, volumetric and fluence changes were assessed using Spearman rank-correlation. A total of 108 pairs of CBCT and RTPD measurements were obtained. The correlation between fluence and volumetric changes were found to be -0.837 (p-value<0.001). The AUC of the ROC was found to be 0.91. The correlation between SG-specific fluence and volumetric changes was found to be -0.62 (p-value<0.001). Twenty-one patients responded to the MDADI. Fluence and volumetric changes were found to have association with the physical, functional and total MDADI changes. No significant association with age, gender, and weight change were found. A transit fluence based DSM is not only a viable alternative to serial CBCT in assisting clinicians in the patient selection, but also lowers the resource barrier of ART implementation.

Conversational artificial intelligence and patient generated health data: transitional patient applications to improve outcomes in the 30 day post-discharge window
Creators: name: Mazza, Kathleen

description: Readmission within 30 days of hospital discharge and avoidable emergency room visits have been shown to result in substantial costs and increased risk to patients. Evolving payment models under the ACA are focused on reducing unnecessary costs and decreasing short-term readmissions and will eliminate or reduce payment for 30-day readmissions after treatment for specified conditions and procedures. Evolving communications technology can help providers and patients to exchange critical patient data in the vulnerable post-discharge period and can encourage a shift to shared responsibility and collaboration between patients and providers. However, many providers are not prepared to collect, analyze, or respond to PGHD in their existing workflows, to make it actionable at the point of care, and to establish best practices for the use of PGHD. This study considers the patient’s outcomes of readmission and/or emergency department use in relation to the use of conversational artificial intelligence in the form of chatbots to gather structured PGHD which is integrated directly into the patient’s EHR and into usual provider workflow, making it available in real time for the provider for use in treatment decisions. Additionally, the study describes characteristics of patients elect or decline to participate in the use of chatbots and their preferences for how they receive and send messages. This study may provide valuable insight into developing optimal models of chatbot use for PGHD sharing and for the establishment of best practices for future implementations of this emerging technology.
