description: Identifying the molecular mechanisms by which genome-wide association study (GWAS) loci influence traits remains challenging. Chromatin accessibility quantitative trait loci (caQTLs) help identify GWAS loci that may alter GWAS traits by modulating chromatin structure, but caQTLs have been identified in a limited set of human tissues. Here we mapped caQTLs in human liver tissue in 20 liver samples and identified 3,123 caQTLs. The caQTL variants are enriched in liver tissue promoter and enhancer states and frequently disrupt binding motifs of transcription factors expressed in liver. We predicted target genes for 861 caQTL peaks using proximity, chromatin interactions, correlation with promoter accessibility or gene expression, and colocalization with expression QTLs. Using GWAS signals for 19 liver function and/or cardiometabolic traits, we identified 110 colocalized caQTLs and GWAS signals, 56 of which contained a predicted caPeak target gene. At the LITAF LDL-cholesterol GWAS locus, we validated that a caQTL variant showed allelic differences in protein binding and transcriptional activity. These caQTLs contribute to the epigenomic characterization of human liver and help identify molecular mechanisms and genes at GWAS loci.

description: Sex-biased dispersal is common in group-living animals. Due to differences in local demographic and environmental factors, sex-biased dispersal presents many irregular patterns. In this study, a habituated, individually identified Yunnan snub-nosed monkey Rhinopithecus bieti group was observed over 9 years; 192 dispersal events, including 97 male dispersal events (25 natal dispersal and 72 secondary dispersal) and 95 female dispersal events (34 natal dispersal and 61 secondary dispersal) were observed. Males and females showed different dispersal paths, dispersal ages, and dispersal patterns. Females had 2 dispersal paths, whereas males had 4 paths. In terms of age of dispersal, the male age of natal dispersal was younger than for females. Males prefer single dispersal, whereas females prefer parallel dispersal. Our study indicates that the dispersal pattern of R. bieti should be classified as a bisexual dispersal pattern. The differences in dispersal path, average age at dispersal, and dispersal path pattern indicate that Yunnan snub-nosed monkeys may still retain a loose matrilineal social system.

description: We present a general sufficient condition for the formation of black holes due to concentration of angular momentum. This is expressed in the form of a universal inequality, relating the size and angular momentum of bodies, and is proven in the context of axisymmetric initial data sets for the Einstein equations which satisfy an appropriate energy condition. A brief comparison is also made with more traditional black hole existence criteria based on concentration of mass.

description: In the last few years the agro-industrial sector of the Russian economics shows stable growth rates. It was immeasurably contributed by the implementation by Russia of the food import ban in reply to sanction restrictions of leading Western countries and of its allies. With that the agro-industrial complex itself undergoes pivotal structural transformations, oriented to the increase of the efficiency of its functioning. Mentioned circumstances predetermined the high topicality of this research subject. The article represents the terms of reference for the best distribution of crop areas. To solve such a task was used the Markovitz model, based on basic provisions of the portfolio analysis. The task has been solved while takig into account the agriculture specifics in the territory of Russia. Were provided results of the analysis of the effective distribution of crop areas for the growing of agricultural crops on the example of one and several sites. With that at the federal level as entities of the Russian Federation – area and/or region. At the regional level this term will be relevant at the distribution of crop areas at the level of districts. Within a district the comparative analysis of the efficiency of the use of crop areas is expedient for categories of agricultural enterprises.

description: Purpose of the Project: Skin cancers are treatable and curable when detected early. Cosmetologists are an untapped resource who can assist in the early detection of skin cancer. This DNP project was developed to demonstrate the usefulness of educating nail technicians about skin cancer screening and recommendations to seek healthcare providers.Methodology: This pilot project is a quasi-experimental, one group, pretest posttest study provided an educational session for nail technicians to teach them to scan their clients for suspicious skin lesions of melanoma. Five nail technicians at a privately owned nail salon in New Jersey were recruited to participate in this study. They received a 30-minute educational session. Questionnaires were given to all participants before, immediately after and 6 weeks after the educational session to evaluate the change in their knowledge. Additionally, participants completed a client interaction log to document the results of their client skin cancer screenings and recommendations to visit healthcare providers.Results: Five nail technicians participated in the educational intervention but only two nail technicians filled out the questionnaires. Both participants increased their knowledge on the post- test. Within the 6-week period, the two participants saw a total of 318 clients; one client (0.31%) was found to have an abnormal skin lesion.Implications: Findings suggests that nail technicians can learn to scan their client’s skin for suspicious skin lesions as part of their normal nail services. Integrating identification of abnormal lesions into cosmetology programs will provide another opportunity to detect early stages of melanoma.

description: Reactive power sharing and containment of voltages within limits for inverter-based resources (IBRs) are two important, yet coupled objectives in ac networks. In this article, we propose a distributed control technique to simultaneously achieve these objectives. Our controller consists of two components: a purely local nonlinear integral controller which adjusts the IBR voltage setpoint, and a distributed primal-dual optimizer that coordinates reactive power sharing between the IBRs. The controller prioritizes the voltage containment objective over reactive power sharing at all points in time; excluding the IBRs with saturated voltages, it provides reactive power sharing among all the IBRs. Considering the voltage saturation and the coupling between voltage and angle dynamics, a formal closed-loop stability analysis based on singular perturbation theory is provided, yielding practical tuning guidance for the overall control system. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller for different case studies, we apply it to a low-voltage microgrid and a microgrid adapted from the CIGRE medium-voltage network benchmark, both simulated in the MATLAB/Simulink environment.

Two-dimensional global hybrid simulation of pressure evolution and waves in the magnetosheath

Year: 2001

description: A two-dimensional hybrid simulation is carried out for the global structure of the magnetosheath. Quasi-perpendicular magnetosonic/fast mode waves with large-amplitude in-phase oscillations of the magnetic field and the ion density are seen near the bow shock transition. Alfven/ion-cyclotron waves are observed along the streamlines in the magnetosheath, and the wave power peaks in the middle magnetosheath. Antiphase oscillations in the magnetic field and density are present away from the shock transition. Transport ratio analysis suggests that these oscillations result from mirror mode waves. Since fluid simulations are currently best able to model the global magnetosphere and the pressure in the magnetosphere is inherently anisotropic (parallel pressure p parallel to not equal perpendicular pressure pr), it is of some interest to see if a fluid model can be used to predict the anisotropic pressure evolution of a plasma. Here the predictions of double adiabatic theory, the bounded anisotropy model, and the double polytropic model are tested using the two-dimensional hybrid simulation of the magnetosheath. Inputs to the models from the hybrid simulation are the initial post bow shock pressures and the time-dependent density and magnetic field strength along streamlines of the plasma. The success of the models is evaluated on the basis of how well they predict the subsequent evolution of p(parallel to) and P-perpendicular to. The bounded anisotropy model, which encorporates a bound on p(perpendicular to)/p(parallel to) due to the effect of ion cyclotron pitch angle scattering, does a very good job of predicting the evolution of pr; this is evidence that local transfer of energy due to waves is occurring. Further evidence is the positive identification of ion-cyclotron waves in the simulation. The lack of such a good prediction for the evolution of p(parallel to) appears to be due to the model's lack of time dependence for the wave-particle interaction and its neglect of the parallel heat flux. Estimates indicate that these effects will be less significant in the real magnetosheath, though perhaps not negligible.
Caragiale in Calcutta: Romanian-Indian Theatre Diplomacy during the Cold War

description: History of Cold War culture has moved in the last couple of years from an East versus West bipolar narrative to investigating the phenomenon from a global perspective. There is a resurgent focus on encounters between the Second and the ‘Third’ Worlds, between socialist states and those from the Global South. My paper is a contribution to the discussion about the role played by theatre exchanges in the cultural dialogue between East and South. Its focus is on Romanian and Indian attempts, starting with the mid-1950s, to bridge the distance between the two cultures. I underline the connection between broader programs of developmental assistance and the entrenchment of cultural relations between Romania and India, particularly in the realm of theatre. I argue that economic rapprochement constituted the igniting premise for mutual discovery. Drawing from the representation of the socialist camp as the “Second World,” my paper will underline the role of Indian progressive intellectuals in the consolidation of theatre exchanges with Romania – a development that can easily be extended to relations across Eastern Europe. Based on the Romanian-Indian encounter, the paper will flesh out two interrelated evolutions in theatre diplomacy between Eastern Europe and the Global South: the importance of individual elective affinities built by way of bilateral relations in facilitating reciprocal adaptation; and, the conversion of personal experience into more systematic programs of theatre exchanges, which mirrored the developmental assistance of state socialist regimes to post-colonial societies.

Year: 2022

description: Purpose: This presentation will showcase how diabetes distress can be reduced with the implementation of patient-centered meetings. The prevalence of diabetes continues to rise in the United States. Despite effective treatment options, there are many barriers to patients attempting to achieve therapy goals. Diabetes distress is a recognized barrier to patients living with diabetes. Methods: The project utilized a quasi-experimental approach with the Diabetes Distress Scale tool administered to patients pre and post intervention. The project took place in a primary care clinic serving an urban city in Essex County, New Jersey. The sample consisted of individuals with type 2 diabetes, A1C levels above 7% and measured levels of diabetes distress. Meetings were bi-monthly and took place over a three-month period of time. During these sessions, motivational interviewing techniques were used to discover patient-specific obstacles and needs. Patients were provided guidance in diabetes education and behavioral modification. Patients were engaged through personalized goal setting and strategies to help improve their self-management.Results: Only one participant completed all six one-on-one meetings. After completing the six sessions of individualized support the patient exhibited a 58% decrease in total diabetes distress levels; a reduction from moderate to severe distress to little or no distress. Reductions in distress were also achieved in the subscales of the Diabetes Distress Scale.Conclusions: The findings support current research and recommendations. Through individualized support and education, patients’ diabetes distress levels were reduced. The patient was able to increase lifestyle modification adherence and left the final meeting feeling confident in their self-management skills. Additional research is needed to determine the clinical effects on A1C after lowering distress levels.
Musical Theatre as a Paradigm of Translocation

description: “Omni-local”, a concept promoted by the classicist Emily Greenwood, is a variation on “transglobal.” It describes a work significant enough to be influential in a wide sphere but which undergoes local adaptation to ensure its reception. In the sphere of performance, this can be observed in the commedia dell’arte, opera and musical theatre. A prime example for the nineteenth century is the comic operas of Jacques Offenbach, which achieved global success, with varying effect, depending on the nature of their introduction and of the host societies. In Rio de Janeiro, they aided liberalization, abolition of slavery and the development of carnaval. In Cairo, imposed from above, they were meant to promote Westernization, but ultimately made to advance Arabic culture. In Japan, they were first viewed as an outlandish novelty, but over the decades became acclimatized and assimilated into indigenous popular entertainment.

Utilization of low-flow anesthesia in conjunction with Sevoflurane for anesthesia providers
Creators: name: Bogdon, William
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: Purpose of Project: Low-flow anesthesia is an underutilized practice that has been shown to be effective in decreasing waste of the anesthetic gas, Sevoflurane. The misconception is that Sevoflurane must be ran with a fresh gas flow (FGF) rate greater than 2 Liters/min to prevent Compound A formation. However, Compound A has not been shown to have any negative effect in humans. Lower flows lead to significant financial savings for healthcare facilities. The goal was to provide an impactful educational presentation to decrease the fresh gas flow used by providers while utilizing Sevoflurane. Methodology: This quasi-experimental study began with a one-month preintervention observation phase conducted at an ambulatory surgery center. Following this, providers were shown an education PowerPoint presentation about low flow anesthesia and current recommendations. A visual cue was also placed on each anesthesia machine. Data collection occurred again one week and four weeks after education. After six weeks, education reinforcement was provided to the anesthesia providers to encourage a continuation of the decreased FGF. Two weeks later, a final data collection period was performed. Results: Data showed a decrease in fresh gas flow. Investigators were able to determine that they were successful in creating a general practice change among anesthesia providers. Implications for Practice: Low flow anesthesia is a simple practice that has been proven to decrease waste of anesthetics. Facilities across the country have begun to encourage low flow anesthesia amongst there providers. There are also potential physiological advantages for patients including the maintenance of body temperature and airway humidity.
Travelling Theatre Companies and Transnational Audiences. A Case Study of Croatia in the Nineteenth Century

Year: 2018

description: For over a hundred and fifty years, the travelling German theatre companies were some of the most important mediators of the common cultural identity of the Habsburg Monarchy. By tirelessly travelling across the borders of the German-speaking area, they encouraged the emergence of a transnational theatre market in the German language, which extended beyond the borders of the empire, and shaped the theatrical taste of a multi-ethnic audience for decades. This article examines the political and social factors that promoted this transnational distribution of German theatre in the nineteenth century. Particular attention is paid to the linguistic identities of the empire and the model function that Vienna played in shaping the lifestyle and the imagined cultural communities throughout the monarchy. The case study of two Croatian theatre centres – Zagreb and Osijek – examines the role played by the travelling German theatre companies in the spread of the common cultural identity on the one hand and in the development of professional Croatian theatre on the other.

description: Purpose: The health of infants that are HIV-exposed and -uninfected (HEU) is a major public health concern as HIV becomes a chronic condition. We investigate the interrelationship between maternal viral suppression, maternal weight status, breastfeeding, and infants that are HEU. Methods: The Kabeho study followed 502 HEU infants in Kigali, Rwanda, for 24 months from 2013 to 2014. We use a structural equation modeling approach to investigate the dynamic relationships between viral suppression, maternal weight change, breastfeeding, and infant length-for-age z-score (LAZ) as defined by the WHO. Results: Older mothers are more likely to be virally suppressed and to breastfeed. Viral suppression and the mother being on antiretroviral treatment for longer were related to lower infant LAZ at three months. A more positive maternal weight change was related to higher infant LAZ at the end of each period. At 12 months, a higher infant LAZ was related to increased probability of continued breastfeeding. At 18 months, continued breastfeeding was related to lower LAZ, and food shortages were related to higher LAZ. Conclusion: There is a complex interrelationship between viral suppression, maternal weight change, breastfeeding, and infant LAZ. These relationships demonstrate the link between maternal and infant health in the context of HIV.

description: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder involving motor neuron degeneration. Significant research has begun to establish brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a potential biomarker to diagnose and monitor the state of the disease. Deep learning has turned into a prominent class of machine learning programs in computer vision and has been successfully employed to solve diverse medical image analysis tasks. However, deep learning-based methods applied to neuroimaging have not achieved superior performance in ALS patients classification from healthy controls due to having insignificant structural changes correlated with pathological features. Therefore, the critical challenge in deep models is to determine useful discriminative features with limited training data. By exploiting the long-range relationship of image features, this study introduces a framework named SF2Former that leverages vision transformer architecture's power to distinguish the ALS subjects from the control group. To further improve the network's performance, spatial and frequency domain information are combined because MRI scans are captured in the frequency domain before being converted to the spatial domain. The proposed framework is trained with a set of consecutive coronal 2D slices, which uses the pre-trained weights on ImageNet by leveraging transfer learning. Finally, a majority voting scheme has been employed to those coronal slices of a particular subject to produce the final classification decision. Our proposed architecture has been thoroughly assessed with multi-modal neuroimaging data using two well-organized versions of the Canadian ALS Neuroimaging Consortium (CALSNIC) multi-center datasets. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our proposed strategy in terms of classification accuracy compared with several popular deep learning-based techniques.

description: Head-on collisions between negative and positive streamers have been proposed as a mechanism behind X-ray emissions by laboratory spark discharges. Recent simulations using plasma fluid and particle in cell models of a single head-on collision of two streamers of opposite polarities in ground pressure air predicted an insignificant number of thermal runaway electrons >1 keV and hence weak undetectable X-ray emissions. Because the current available models of a single streamer collision failed to explain the observations, we first use a Monte Carlo model coupled with multiple static dielectric ellipsoids immersed in a subbreakdown ambient electric field as a description of multiple streamer environment and we investigate the ability of multiple streamer-streamer head-on collisions to accelerate runaway electrons >1 keV up to energies similar to 200-300 keV instead of just one single head-on collision. The results of simulations show that the streamer head-on collision mechanism fails to accelerate electrons; instead, they decelerate in the positive streamer channel. In a second part, we use a streamer plasma fluid model to simulate a new streamer-electron acceleration mechanism based on a collision of a large negative streamer with a small neutral plasma patch in different Laplacian electric fields vertical bar E-0 vertical bar = (35, 40, 45) kV/cm, respectively. We observe the formation of a secondary short propagating negative streamer with a strong peak electric field >250 up to 378 kV/cm over a time duration of similar to 0.16 ns at the moment of the collision. The mechanism produces up to 10(6) runaway electrons with an upper energy limit of 24 keV.

description: Purpose of Project: Since the implementation of executive order number 112 in the state of New Jersey, CRNAs (certified registered nurse anesthetists) are now permitted to administer anesthesia in a dental office setting without a joint protocol with a physician anesthesiologist. For patients and practitioners to reap the benefits of these policy changes; this study sought to increase the likelihood of interdisciplinary collaboration between dentists and CRNAs by providing education to students enrolled at Rutgers School of Dental Medicine.Methodology: The participants of this prospective study partook in a virtual educational lecture and an in-person hands-on anesthesia workshop geared toward increasing their knowledge and confidence in the CRNA profession. Results: Data was collected via pre intervention and post intervention surveys, which showed that the dental students were more aware of CRNA practice and more likely to collaborate with them in practice after the educational intervention.Implications for Practice: Armed with the knowledge that CRNAs can provide cost-effective and safe anesthesia care, future dental medicine practitioners will be more enthusiastic to collaborate with them in practice. Increased utilization of CRNAs in dental medicine is also financially advantageous to patients as well as dental practitioners; and the job opportunities that this subset opens up for CRNAs is dually valuable.
Probing Spin Accumulation induced Magnetocapacitance in a Single Electron Transistor

description: The interplay between spin and charge in solids is currently among the most discussed topics in condensed matter physics. Such interplay gives rise to magneto-electric coupling, which in the case of solids was named magneto-electric effect, as predicted by Curie on the basis of symmetry considerations. This effect enables the manipulation of magnetization using electrical field or, conversely, the manipulation of electrical polarization by magnetic field. The latter is known as the magnetocapacitance effect. Here, we show that non-equilibrium spin accumulation can induce tunnel magnetocapacitance through the formation of a tiny charge dipole. This dipole can effectively give rise to an additional serial capacitance, which represents an extra charging energy that the tunneling electrons would encounter. In the sequential tunneling regime, this extra energy can be understood as the energy required for a single spin to flip. A ferromagnetic single-electron-transistor with tunable magnetic configuration is utilized to demonstrate the proposed mechanism. It is found that the extra threshold energy is experienced only by electrons entering the islands, bringing about asymmetry in the measured Coulomb diamond. This asymmetry is an unambiguous evidence of spin accumulation induced tunnel magnetocapacitance, and the measured magnetocapacitance value is as high as 40%.

description: One year's worth of plasma observations from geosynchronous orbit is examined for ion distributions that may simultaneously be subject to the ion Bernstein (IB) instability (generating fast magnetosonic waves) and the Alfven cyclotron (AC) instability (generating electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves). Confirming past analyses, distributions with robust partial derivative fp(v(perpendicular to))/partial derivative v(perpendicular to) > 0 near v(|)| = 0, which we denote as ring/shell distributions, are commonly found primarily on the dayside of the magnetosphere. A new approach to high-fidelity representation of the observed ring/shell distribution functions in a form readily suited to both analytical moment calculation and linear dispersion analysis is presented, which allows statistical analysis of the ring/shell properties. The ring/shell temperature anisotropy is found to have a clear upper limit that depends on the parallel beta of the ring/shell (beta|| r) in a manner that is diagnostic of the operation of the AC instability. This upper limit is only reached in the postnoon events, which are primarily produced by the energy-and pitch angle-dependent magnetic drifts of substorm-injected ions. Further, it is primarily the leading edge of such injections, where the distribution is strongly ring-like, that the AC instability appears to be operating. By contrast, the ratio of the ring energy to the Alfven energy remains well within the range of 0.25-4.0 suitable for IB instability throughout essentially all of the events, except those that occur in denser cold plasma of the outer plasmasphere. Plain Language Summary One year's worth of plasma observations from geosynchronous orbit is examined for ion distributions that may simultaneously be subject to the ion Bernstein (IB) instability (generating fast magnetosonic waves) and the Alfven cyclotron (AC) instability (generating electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves). Confirming past analyses, ring/shell distributions are commonly found primarily on the dayside of the magnetosphere. A new approach to high-fidelity representation of the observed ring/shell distribution functions allows statistical analysis of the ring/shell properties. Clear evidence is found for the operation of the AC instability, but only in the afternoon events, which are primarily produced by the energy-and pitch angle-dependent magnetic drifts of substorm-injected ions. Further, it is primarily at the leading edge of such injections, where the distribution is strongly ring-like, that the AC instability appears to be operating. By contrast, the IB instability seems to be driven throughout essentially all of the events, except those that occur in denser cold plasma of the outer plasmasphere. These results suggest that fast magnetosonic waves should typically dominate over electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves during most substorm injections.
Herr Daniel Bandmann and Shakespeare vs the World

description: German actor Daniel Bandmann played his first Hamlet at the age of 20, and made his English language debut as Shylock in New York, 1863. In his prime, he performed extensively in America, Great Britain, Australia, and New Zealand, amongst other countries. Though he played roles which ranged from Narcisse and the Corsican twins to Jekyll and Hyde, he was perhaps most closely identified with a handful of Shakespearean roles: Hamlet, Shylock, Macbeth, Othello, Iago. His apparently ungovernable temper led to a love/hate relationship with the critics, played out in public through the newspapers. His responses to criticism open a window into his playing of these roles. This paper examines Bandmann’s acting in the role of Hamlet and the critical interchanges he engaged in around the world, as an exemplar of the interaction of theatre and the global media.

description: During the second half of the nineteenth century, Sarah Bernhardt has helped to establish theatrical trade routes between Europe and the Americas as a result of her international travels. Her tours in Brazil intensified the exchanges between this country and the French theatre, and the presence of this famous actress indicated the inclusion of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo in the “global” theatrical circuit of great stars that was then being formed. While revisiting this process, this article investigates its symbolic meaning and its impacts on a local level (Brazil): how these tours connected Sarah Bernhardt to foreign audiences (thereby helping to shape a global cultural space) and to which extent foreign audiences’ expectations have weighed in on the aesthetic features of these productions. From a broader perspective, in this sense, cultural globalization and translocal audiences are essential to assessing the production of French theatre in the nineteenth century.

description: Background: While an established clinical outcome of high importance, social functioning has been emerging as possibly having a broader significance to the evolution of psychosis and long term disability. In the current study we explored the association between social decline, conversion to psychosis, and functional outcome in individuals at clinical high risk (CHR) for psychosis. Methods: 585 subjects collected in the North American Prodrome Longitudinal Study (NAPLS2) were divided into 236 Healthy Controls (HCs), and CHR subjects that developed psychosis (CHR + C, N = 79), or those that did not (Non-Converters, CHR-NC, N = 270). CHR + C subjects were further divided into those that experienced an atypical decline in social functioning prior to baseline (beyond typical impairment levels) when in min-to-late adolescence (CHR + C-SD, N = 39) or those that did not undergoing a decline (CHR + C-NSD, N = 40). Results: Patterns of poor functional outcomes varied across the CHR subgroups: CHR-NC (Poor Social 36.3%, Role 42.2%) through CHR + C-NSD (Poor Social 50%, Poor Role 67.5%) to CHR + C-SD (Poor Social 76.9%, Poor Role 89.7%) functioning. The two Converter subgroups had comparable positive symptoms at baseline. At 12 months, the CHR + C-SD group stabilized, but social functioning levels remained significantly lower than the other two subgroups. Conclusions: The current study demonstrates that pre-baseline social decline in mid-to-late adolescence predicts psychosis. In addition, we found that this social decline in converters is strongly associated with especially poor functional outcome and overall poorer prognosis. Role functioning, in contrast, has not shown similar predictor potential, and rather appears to be an illness indicator that worsens over time.

description: Purpose of Project: Laryngeal Mask Airways (LMAs) are advanced airways whose use is increasing in general anesthesia procedures. Initial exposure to the device has been through academia and training through various airway workshops, texts, and clinical observation/practice. Directed towards anesthesia providers, this project was focused on bridging the gap between current recommendations to LMA cuff pressure maintenance with current clinical practice in order to avoid hyperinflation by aligning with current manufacturer guidelines of ≤ 60 cm H₂O utilizing a manometer and/or reference guide.Methodology: Various Anesthesiologists and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists participated in inserting LMAs (n = 46) and measurement of their cuff pressures. Prior to initiation of the PowerPoint presentation and disbursement of the reference guideline, baseline practice was established for 5 weeks and again for another 3-week post-intervention. A manometer, present in some of the OR, was utilized during the entirety of the study.Results: Using SPSS v28 statistical software, nonparametric, and Man Whitney- U test was performed comparing the pre and post interventional groups, to see if there was a difference in mean pressures. In both groups the mean pressure exceeded the manufacturers' recommendation of 60 cm H₂O, however there was no reduction in mean pressures.Implications for Practice: In performing this study, it is evident that the current clinical practice being conducted was not in alignment with the manufacturer’s recommendations. There is a need to further conduct additional research in order to improve insertion techniques and cuff pressures, so as to increase patient safety and comfort throughout the peri-operative period.

description: Using the combined Auburn global hybrid simulation code in 3-D (ANGIE3D) and the Comprehensive Inner Magnetosphere-Ionosphere (CIMI) model, we investigate the self-consistent connection of fast flow injections from the tail plasma sheet and the inner magnetosphere under a southward IMF. In the dynamic run, the hybrid results provide the CIMI model with 3-D magnetic field and the electric potential at the high latitude ionosphere boundary as well as the full ion phase space distribution function at the CIMI outer boundary at the equator. The simulation shows that magnetotail reconnection, which has a dawn-dusk size of similar to 1-5 R-E, recurs with a period of several minutes, resulting in recurring localized fast flow injections. Strong ion temperature anisotropy and non-Maxwellian distributions are present in the fast flows, and the braking of fast flows due to the dipole-like field results in further perpendicular heating in the injection sources. Multiple fast flow injections lead to multiple peaks in the particle fluxes in the inner magnetosphere as well as layers of upward and downward field-aligned currents at the ionosphere, and low energy particles penetrate deeper radially than the high energy particles. The combined ANGIE3D-CIMI model can be used to calculate the global kinetic physics that contains both Region-1 and Region-2 field-aligned currents.

description: The Cooling-Storage-Ring External-target Experiment (CSR-CEE) is a spectrometer to study the nature of nuclear matter created in heavy ion collision at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = $ 2.1 - 2.4 GeV, aiming to reveal Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) phase structure in the high-baryon density region. Collective flow is regarded as an effective probe for studying the properties of the medium in high-energy nuclear collisions. One of the main functions of the Zero-Degree Calorimeter (ZDC), a sub-detector system in CEE, is to determine the reaction-plane in heavy ion collisions, which is crucial for the measurements of collective flow and other reaction plane related analysis. In this paper, we illustrate the procedures of event plane determination from ZDC. Finally, predictions of the rapidity dependence of directed and elliptic flow for $p$, $d$, $t$, $^3$He and $^4$He, from 2.1 GeV U+U collisions of IQMD model calculations, are presented.

Japanesque Shows for Western Markets: Loïe Fuller and Early Japanese Tours Through Europe (1900-08)

description: The hype of Japanese theatre in Europe during the first decade of the twentieth century has received much scholarly attention focused on the global stars it produced: Sada Yakko, and Hanako. This article, starting from the assumption of a strong western angency in circulating Japanese products during the heyday of japonisme, highlights the decisive contribution of their western impresaria, Loïe Fuller, to the success of the Japanese tours. In a period marked by a strong professionalisation of theatre brokers, Fuller - a cross-over artist and cultural mediator sui generis - is an eccentric apparition, a belated example of artist-impresaria, who cumulated sundry functions in the process and reshaped the Japanese shows, by multiple acts of translation and mediation, into a global theatre brand.
