Racial and Ethnic Disparities in the Quality and Outcomes of Inpatient Specialty Palliative Care Consultation
Creators: name: Laks, Jordana
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: In the United States, well-documented health disparities exist between racial and ethnic populations, including inequities in health care access, quality, and outcomes for life-threatening diseases. Although there is evidence of decreased hospice use among racial and ethnic minorities, there is minimal research on disparities in non-hospice-based palliative care, including inpatient specialty palliative care. By optimizing symptom management and supporting patient and family-centered decision-making, specialty palliative care may have the potential to reduce disparities in end-of-life care quality and outcomes. This paper aims to fill the gap in literature on racial and ethnic disparities in the inpatient specialty palliative care consultation setting. The first section presents a systematic review of the literature on associations between race/ethnicity and care processes and outcomes among patients who receive an inpatient palliative care consultation. The review suggests that most patients move toward less aggressive care after inpatient palliative care consultation, regardless of race or ethnicity. Inpatient palliative care consultation may be a means to increase minority patients’ access to hospice services. The second section presents an observational study comparing patient characteristics, adherence to palliative care quality measures, and clinical outcomes in encounters for seriously ill black patients versus white patients seen on an inpatient specialty palliative care consultation service. Compared to white patient encounters, quality measure adherence was similar in encounters for black patients, although black patients were more likely to have their spiritual/religious concerns addressed. Advance direction completion occurred at similar rates in black and white patient encounters, suggesting that specialty palliative care consultation may offer an opportunity to reduce the racial disparity in advance care planning.

description: We report the discovery of an eclipsing binary -- PTF1 J072456$+$125301-- composed of a subdwarf B (sdB) star ($g'=17.2^m$) with a faint companion. Subdwarf B stars are core helium-burning stars, which can be found on the extreme horizontal branch. About half of them reside in close binary systems, but few are known to be eclipsing, for which fundamental stellar parameters can be derived.\newline We conducted an analysis of photometric data and spectra from the Palomar 60'' and the 200" Hale telescope respectively. A quantitative spectral analysis found an effective temperature of $T_{\text{eff}}=33900\pm350$\,K, log g = $5.74\pm0.08$ and log($n_{\text{He}}/n_{\text{H}}) = -2.02 \pm0.07$, typical for an sdB star. The companion does not contribute to the optical light of the system, except through a distinct reflection effect. From the light curve an orbital period of 0.09980(25)\,d and a system inclination of $83.56\pm0.30\,^{\circ}$ were derived. The radial velocity curve yielded an orbital semi-amplitude of $K_1=95.8\pm 8.1\,\text{km s$^{-1}$}$. The mass for the M-type dwarf companion is $0.155\pm0.020\,M_{\odot}$. PTF1\,J072456$+$125301 has similar atmospheric parameters to those of pulsating sdB stars (V346 Hya stars). Therefore it could be a high-priority object for asteroseismology, if pulsations were detected such as in the enigmatic case of NY Vir.

description: Students’ Socio-Economic Status (SES) has long been considered as a pivotal factor, which has a direct impact on their success in language learning outcomes and their motivation to learn foreign languages. This paper will report on the findings of a study conducted among students who pursue undergraduate studies in different disciplines at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. The aim of the study is to determine the extent to which students’ SES affects their attitudes towards foreign language learning and define their foreign language choices. What is more, we will also focus on the impact of the economic situation in Greece (at the time the study was conducted) on students’ language attitudes and language choices. Drawing on the findings of the study, some recommendations are put forward in an attempt to offer equal opportunities for learning foreign languages to all students irrespective of their socio-economic status.

An attempt at unveiling the mystery of the present perfect – by analyzing it as a device to counterbalance the impact of other grammatical entities
Creators: name: Kabakčiev, Krasimir
Publisher: name: Selected papers on theoretical and applied linguistics
Year: 2023
Subjects: present perfect, preterit, renarrative, (non-)witnessing, (non-)cancelable, (non-)grammaticality

description: The paper argues that the raison d’être of the present perfect (PP) across languages is not in its meaning but in certain functional dependencies. The existence of grammatical entities in a language is conjectured to be neither accidental/haphazard, nor the result of some magic (God-given). Grammatical entities in a language emerge and exist in order to offset the impact of other grammatical entities; they either hang together or exist to make up for the absence of other grammatical entities. PP signals the value non-witnessed intrinsically, not by default, counterbalancing the witnessed-by-default value of the preterit, and the two grammemes hang together.

description: Context: Contemporary challenges facing the American health care system require an expansion of the traditional approach to health care to include a population-based perspective. Chronic diseases, global pandemics, and bioterrorism contribute to disease burdens that must be approached on a global level. System challenges such as cost containment, medical errors, and quality assurance also demand a more inclusive approach. In order to develop sophisticated solutions to these complex problems, physicians must be equipped with a new set of skills that embody public health philosophies of population-based care and prevention. Acknowledging this need, medical school curricula are being expanded to include public health education. The most comprehensive efforts to provide medical students with a broad-based public health perspective involve the creation of MD-MPH dual degree curricula. Objectives: (1) To review the historical context that led to a distinct separation of medicine and public health as two independent health sectors. (2) To explore the change in disease patterns, political/social culture, and economic interests that have placed increasing pressure on the American healthcare system and represent a need for increased public health approaches to health care. (3) To create a comprehensive directory of MD-MPH curricula in U.S. medical schools. (4) To review the literature involving the evaluation of MD-MPH programs and investigations about the influence of the Master of Public Health degree on clinical practice behaviors. (5) To propose a research plan for the evaluation of the MD-MPH program at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. Overview of Research Plan: A qualitative, interview-based study of key program informants and graduates of the Health Care and Prevention (HCP) program is proposed. This study is an adjunct to a quantitative, survey-based study of HCP graduates already in progress. The proposed study will seek to understand the program’s overall mission, main objectives, and graduate perceptions about usefulness of skills obtained. Results and Conclusion: The proposed qualitative study has obtained IRB approval, and key faculty informant interviews are currently in progress. Graduate interviews will follow.

description: Ein Plasmaaktuator wird über instationäre Betriebsmodi angesteuert, um wandnahe Fluidoszillationen zu erzeugen. Das Ziel ist es, spannweitig oszillierende Wände zugunsten einer Verringerung des turbulenten Reibungswiderstands nachzuahmen. Da der Aktuator keine beweglichen Teile besitzt, könnte er sich als nicht-mechanischer Ersatz der oszillierenden Wand eignen. Die Kombination von Betriebsmodus und zugrundeliegender Elektrodenanordnung ist eine Neuerung, welche die spannweitige Homogenität der Strömung solcher virtuellen Wandoszillationen verbessert. Die mechanische Charakterisierung wird mittels eines planaren Feldmessverfahrens durchgeführt, um sowohl die induzierten Strömungstopologien als auch die Effekte von Volumenkraft und „virtueller Wandgeschwindigkeit“, d.h. Reaktion des Fluids, aufzuzeigen. Daraus wird zur Bewertung und Optimierung der Leistungsfähigkeit des Aktuators ein universelles Diagramm hinsichtlich aktuatorspezifischer Parameter abgeleitet. Da die berechnete Volumenkraft die Art der Kraftausübung gut widerspiegelt, kann diese modellhaft zu verbesserten numerischen Simulationen der Aktuatorik dienen. Ferner wird eine neue Vorgehensweise für die Bestimmung der elektrischen Leistung von Aktuatoren mit mehreren Hochspannungselektroden bereitgestellt, welche die potenzielle Abschätzung des Nettogewinns in aktiven Kontrollszenarien ermöglicht. Zuletzt wird die unmittelbare Auswirkung der oszillatorischen Kraftausübung auf den Reibungswiderstand in der Querebene einer voll entwickelten turbulenten Kanalströmung mittels einer stereoskopischen Feldmesstechnik untersucht. Im Wesentlichen verbleibt die Strömung im sich entwickelnden Stadium und erfährt auf dem Aktuator eine Erhöhung des Reibungswiderstands, während sich dieser stromab des Aktuators verringert.

description: Abstract Trust has become a very influential barrier and deficit to the development and implementation of policies and programes in Nigeria. Most Nigerians have become frustrated by inexistence of commitment to duty and the lack of revitalization of governance towards economic prosperity. These unfortunately has led to the inability of government and its agents to address fundamental issues that hinders consistent policy framework, thereby paving way for trust deficit in governance and administration of the state. Leadership capacity no longer exist in the system of governance in Nigeria. Understanding common values that bridge the gap between the have and the have not has become a nightmare, as the unprofessional conduct of some civil servants and political office holders have created room for lack of sincerity and confidence in the nation’s public institutions. This study is set to unravel some of the mistrust or trust issues that affects the citizens as it relates to policies and programmes, and why it has become the norm in Nigeria politics and administration. The study adopted content analysis approach in order to gain an indebt understanding of the phenomenon. Two trust deficit theories were analyzed; these are institutional theory and theory-based evaluation approach. The study recommended that government should be sensitive to the plight of the people, by building and sustaining trust related issues. Policies and programmes should be adequately implemented to dis-way the people from suspicion and indifference to government pronouncement.

description: The increasing influx of migrant and refugee waves in Greece in recent decades has shifted the country’s educational policy towards intercultural education even more strongly in recent years. The present study attempts to present secondary school teachers’ views and attitudes towards students of diverse cultural backgrounds in mixed classes in the center of Athens. Given the new multicultural reality, one would assume that teachers have the appropriate intercultural readiness and competence to effectively manage multiculturism in class (Ζάγκα et al. 2015). Research results show the particular difficulties faced by teachers of Greek language and literature in teaching mixed classes and the teaching practices they apply.

Comparative incidence of metabolic syndrome in patients with schizophrenia being treated with second generation antipsychotics vs. first generation antipsychotics: A Systematic Review of Literature
Creators: name: Vadlamudi, Charita
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: Background: Schizophrenia is a chronic condition negatively influencing quality of life of affected people. Evidence exists that there is increased prevalence of metabolic syndrome in people with schizophrenia. Current medications used in treating schizophrenia have been implicated in further exacerbating this already increased baseline prevalence of metabolic syndrome in schizophrenia patients, specifically second generation antipsychotic agents more than first generation antipsychotic agents. This connection between developing metabolic syndrome and use of second generation antipsychotic agents is still being clarified. Objective: To systematically review available evidence on the incidence of developing metabolic syndrome in patients with schizophrenia being treated with second generation antipsychotic agents versus those treated with first generation antipsychotic agents. Methods: In order to review available evidence, this author searched MEDLINE, CINAHL, The Cochrane Library, and BIOSIS (January 1990 to May 2011) using MeSH terms such as “antipsychotic agents” and “metabolic syndrome.” Additional articles were identified through a hand search of reference lists of selected articles. Results: The initial literature search identified 326 articles. After abstract review, 9 articles underwent full text review, and finally 2 studies were included into the review after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results of these 2 studies indicate fair to poor quality evidence of increased incidence of developing metabolic syndrome in patients with schizophrenia being treated with second generation antipsychotic agents when compared to patients with schizophrenia treated with first generation antipsychotics. Conclusion: This review identified that there is an overall lack of adequate studies to properly answer the question posed. The studies included in this review suffered from several limitations lessening the utility of their findings. Therefore, future research is needed to determine the effect of second generation antipsychotic agents on developing metabolic syndrome when compared to first generation antipsychotic agents.

The conclusion is that in many cases these three notions are different from each other. In particular, we see that while the KSB and the Viehweg versions of the moduli space of surfaces of general type have the same underlying reduced subscheme, their infinitesimal structures are different.

The Patient Centered Medical Home: Factors that Threaten Deeper Integration & Values-Based Leadership as a Way Forward
Creators: name: Flattery, William J.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: BACKGROUND: The nascent Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model of care holds promise to address many challenges facing the United States healthcare system by refocusing the efforts of primary care on the ideals of whole person orientation, greater access to appropriate care, and coordination of care across the healthcare system. All of this is done with an eye toward better outcomes at a lower cost. METHODS: A review of current literature and an analysis was conducted to understand what is working in PCMH and to what extent, and to outline the evolving factors that threaten broad PCMH adoption. FINDINGS: A confluence of factors threatens the full integration of the broad PCMH principles. Hospitals are buying independent primary care practices at a rapid rate. These primary care practices are not Medical Homes when they are purchased by hospitals. If the PCMH model of care is to be widely implemented, it will have to be done by the hospitals buying these primary care practices. When the PCMH model reduces cost, it generally does so at the expense of hospitals, and hospitals face increasing pressure on their finances. These hospitals are faced with the ethical challenge of making sense of how, when, and how deeply to implement the PCMH model to protect the financial integrity of their organizations. Hospital leaders will use the recently published Pioneer ACO data to guide their decisions. That data indicate that only one third of the thirty two ACO vanguards were able to show financial gain in the first year despite years of preparation and heavy investment in infrastructure. Hospital leaders evaluating these outcomes will increasingly question the financial wisdom of full PCMH implementation. CONCLUSIONS: PCMH shows promise, and is a necessary tool for addressing the multi-faceted issues facing the U.S. healthcare system. The barriers to greater PCMH implementation, including hospital consolidation of physician practices, and physician willingness to lead, will be ameliorated by Values-Based leadership. The barriers to PCMH implementation will be overcome with a straight forward business case for doing so. This will happen with significant payment reform.

description: The ground state and excited spectra of baryons containing three identical heavy quarks, $b$ or $c$, have been recently calculated in nonperturbative lattice QCD. The energy of positive and negative parity excitations has been determined with high precision. Lattice results constitute a unique opportunity to learn about the quark-confinement mechanism as well as elucidating our knowledge about the nature of the strong force. We analyze the nonperturbative lattice QCD results by means of heavy-quark static potentials derived using SU(3) lattice QCD. We make use of different numerical techniques for the three-body problem.

Benefits and Barriers to Behavioral Health Integration in an Adolescent Community Health Setting
Creators: name: Sutton, Kayla
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: Behavioral health services, such as the counseling and treatment of mental health and substance abuse issues, are typically outsourced from primary care to mental health professionals; however, care is not coordinated between the referring and referred physician. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) emphasizes the need to improve coordination of health care and mental health services through various incentives, and the legislation stresses the importance of integrating behavioral health and primary care services in order to better manage population health and reduce health care spending (Croft & Parish, 2013). Many states, including North Carolina (N.C.), have listed behavioral health and primary care integration as a primary focus in their efforts to reduce cost, improve quality, increase accessibility to health care services, and prevent overutilization of emergency care services. In June 2013, the Teen Wellness Center in Gaston County, N.C., a state-funded, adolescent-focused community health center, aimed to determine the benefits and barriers to integrating behavioral health services into their currently offered services. The Teen Wellness Center (TWC) serves as a case study to determine the feasibility of integrating behavioral health services within similar types of health care facilities. After reviewing available guidance, lessons learned, and research, it was determined that the TWC's patient population demonstrated a need for access to and/or utilization of behavioral health services, and basic levels of collaboration would be fairly easily achievable. The extent to which the TWC can offer fully integrated services is, however, a longer-term consideration that requires large stakeholder approval, and likely, a visible leader to champion the effort.

Findings indicated statistically significant differences in the pre- post-comparison for most of the questionnaire items. The differences were more pronounced in the self-regulation and output production strategies indicating effectiveness of the SI on the students’ cognitive and metacognitive strategy use. This paper presents the specific SI and discusses the implications for explicit SI in EAP contexts.

Imperative questions and questioning imperatives
Creators: name: Magionos, Georgios
Publisher: name: Selected papers on theoretical and applied linguistics
Year: 2023
Subjects: clause-typing, rising intonation, true imperatives, subjunctive imperatives, interrogatives, speaker involvement, addressee management

description: In general, there is a ban on imperative questions cross-linguistically, based on their semantic properties and clause type restrictions. However, recent analyses show that prosody and specific discourse particles can be used to alter the function of a given clause type, in languages like English. This paper focuses on the construction of Rising Imperatives (RIs) in Modern Greek. It is shown that the imperative can take a question-like form through a prosodic pattern (different kinds of rising intonation) and/or sentence-final discourse particles affecting interpretation.

Vowel height as sonority level
Creators: name: Markopoulos, Giorgos
name: Apostolopoulou, Eirini
Publisher: name: Selected papers on theoretical and applied linguistics
Year: 2023
Subjects: vowel reduction, vowel deletion, sonority level, Northern Greek dialects, Gradient Harmonic Grammar

description: This paper explores two processes that target vowels in non-prominent positions: vowel reduction and vowel deletion. Our aim is to show that, despite being analyzed separately in the relevant literature, the two processes not only share certain important properties but, in fact, can be seen as distinct epiphenomena of a single underlying mechanism that aims at decreasing the sonority level of vowels in non-prominent syllables. The analysis, which focuses on vowel reduction and vowel deletion in Northern Greek dialects as a case study, is couched within the framework of Gradient Harmonic Grammar (Smolensky Goldrick 2016).
