Improving Advance Directive Completion Rates in the Primary Care Setting
Creators: name: Donahue, Esperanza
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2013

As technology has improved and the ability to artificially prolong life has increased dramatically, so has the need to draw attention to end-of-life care issues (Duke, Thompson, & Hastie, 2007). The Federal Patient Self-Determination Act (PSDA) of 1991 first brought attention to the importance of advance directives (ADs), (Government, 1995). Increasing the focus on advance directives for adult patients in the primary care setting could assist in increasing completion rates, prior to hospitalization.
The purpose of this project was to test a model to increase AD completion rates, to provide more complete patient centered care. Many programs and interventions have been implemented since the PSDA was enacted in 1992, some have been able to increase rates; other interventions have had little impact. It has been estimated that only 5%-15% of all patients have completed ADs (Ramsaroop & Adelman, 2007). This indicates a need for programs to educate and empower patients and providers to ensure ADs are completed.
An appropriate setting to complete advance directives is in the primary care setting due to the importance of having ADs prior to hospitalization. There are multiple reasons to support this setting for a focus on advance directives completion. These include the ability to develop a strong patient-provider rapport, the length of professional relationship and the ability to have multiple patient-provider interactions over time to discuss patient wishes and to potentially complete the AD during the interaction.
Improving Cultural Competency among Healthcare Providers Working with Refugee Patients
Creators: name: Chau, Tena
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

Background: Increased diversity of the United States population has resulted in the presence of greater disparities in healthcare. One way to address factors contributing to health disparities has been to increase cultural competency in healthcare. Evidence from a review of the literature supports the idea that understanding aspects of cultural competency that are lacking among specific healthcare organizations are helpful to develop programs to address the areas of need. Purpose: The purpose was to complete a quality improvement project to evaluate if an educational intervention based on a specific model would lead to increased level of cultural competence among healthcare providers. Methods: The Campinha-Bacote Model was used as the basis of the educational program. An electronic format of The Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence among Healthcare Providers – Revised was used as the pre-and-post-test to evaluate the efficacy of the educational intervention. Implementation Plan/Procedure: For this project, cultural competency baseline levels of providers consisting of doctors, nurse practitioners, and therapists (N = 6), working with refugee patients were assessed, followed by an educational intervention via PowerPoint. A post-test and evaluation survey was administered after the intervention. Results: Statistically significant increases were noted in mean cultural competency scores (11.83 points). Increases were noted in the measured constructs of cultural awareness (3.00 points), knowledge (3.84 points), and skill (3.34 points).  Implications/Conclusion: Ongoing educational intervention may lead to increased levels of cultural competency for healthcare providers. Further practice improvement projects should be completed to evaluate the effect of increased cultural competency on patient outcomes.

description: Semiflexible polymers such as filamentous actin play a vital role in the mechanical behavior of cells, yet the basic properties of cross-linked F-actin networks remain poorly understood. To address this issue, we have performed numerical studies of the linear response of homogeneous and isotropic two-dimensional networks subject to an applied strain at zero temperature. The elastic moduli are found to vanish for network densities at a rigidity percolation threshold. For higher densities, two regimes are observed: one in which the deformation is predominantly affine and the filaments stretch and compress; and a second in which bending modes dominate. We identify a dimensionless scalar quantity, being a combination of the material length scales, that specifies to which regime a given network belongs. A scaling argument is presented that approximately agrees with this crossover variable. By a direct geometric measure, we also confirm that the degree of affinity under strain correlates with the distinct elastic regimes. We discuss the implications of our findings and suggest possible directions for future investigations.

description: In 2012, EPA turned down request to suspend the US ethanol mandate on the ground that doing so would not result in lower corn prices. Given that ethanol pro- duction accounts for more than 40 percent of the US annual corn harvest together with current trend of extreme weather events, it is likely that a similar request will resurface in the future. We therefore use a competitive storage model to investigate how a waiver of the US ethanol mandate, conditional on high corn price, might affect corn prices and consume welfares. It is found that although waiving the mandate when the price was at the level in 2012 would only result in moderate decrease of long run corn prices, the price volatility reductions are much larger. In addition, if the US corn yield in 2013 is as low as it was in 2012, suspending 20 percent of the mandate in 2012 will result in a price drop of 18 percent in 2013, higher than EPA's estimate of less than 1 percent. Associated with lower corn price is a gain of 7.69 billion dollars in US consumer welfares.

description: The problem of learning simultaneously several related tasks has received considerable attention in several domains, especially in machine learning with the so-called multitask learning problem or learning to learn problem [1], [2]. Multitask learning is an approach to inductive transfer learning (using what is learned for one problem to assist in another problem) and helps improve generalization performance relative to learning each task separately by using the domain information contained in the training signals of related tasks as an inductive bias. Several strategies have been derived within this community under the assumption that all data are available beforehand at a fusion center. However, recent years have witnessed an increasing ability to collect data in a distributed and streaming manner. This requires the design of new strategies for learning jointly multiple tasks from streaming data over distributed (or networked) systems. This article provides an overview of multitask strategies for learning and adaptation over networks. The working hypothesis for these strategies is that agents are allowed to cooperate with each other in order to learn distinct, though related tasks. The article shows how cooperation steers the network limiting point and how different cooperation rules allow to promote different task relatedness models. It also explains how and when cooperation over multitask networks outperforms non-cooperative strategies.

description: The Planck Catalogue of Galactic Cold Clumps (PGCC) contains over 13000 sources detected based on their cold dust signature. They are believed to consist of a mixture of quiescent, pre-stellar, and already star-forming objects. We extracted PGCC-type objects from cloud simulations and examined their physical and polarisation properties. The comparison with the PGCC catalogue helps to characterise the PGCC sample and provides valuable tests for numerical simulations of interstellar medium. We used several MHD snapshots to define the density field of our models. Sub-millimetre images of the surface brightness and polarisation were obtained with radiative transfer calculations. We examined the statistics of synthetic cold clump catalogues and examined the variations of the clump polarisation fraction p. The clump sizes, aspect ratios, and temperatures in the synthetic catalogue are similar to the PGCC. The fluxes and column densities are smaller by a factor of a few. Rather than with an increased dust opacity, this could be explained by increasing the average column density of the models by a factor of two to three, close to N(H2)= 10^22 cm-2. When the line of sight is parallel to the mean magnetic field, the polarisation fraction tends to increase towards the clump centres, contrary to observations. When the field is perpendicular, the polarisation fraction tends to decrease towards the clumps, but the drop in $p$ is small (e.g. from p~8% to p~7%). Magnetic field geometry reduces the polarisation fraction in the simulated clumps by only Δp~1% on average. The larger drop seen towards the actual PGCC clumps suggests some loss of grain alignment in the dense medium, such as predicted by the radiative torque mechanism. The statistical study is not able to quantify dust opacity changes at the scale of the PGCC clumps.

description: Global simulation models are increasingly used to assess future scenarios and the impact of policies related to food security, land use and climate change. A crucial element in these studies are assumptions on productivity change and technical progress, the key drivers of long-run economic growth and structural change. However, despite their importance, these assumptions are often simplistic or rather ad hoc. This paper addresses this issue by presenting sector and country specific projections for labour productivity till the year 2050 for seven economic regions in the world.

description: In this article, I discuss a method by Erikson et al. (2005, Proceedings of the National Academy of Science 102: 9730–9733) for decomposing a total effect in a logit model into direct and indirect effects. Moreover, I extend this method in three ways. First, in the original method the variable through which the indirect effect occurs is assumed to be normally distributed. In this article, the method is generalized by allowing this variable to have any distribution. Second, the original method did not provide standard errors for the estimates. In this article, the bootstrap is proposed as a method of providing those. Third, I show how to include control variables in this decomposition, which was not allowed in the original method. The original method and these extensions are implemented in the ldecomp command.

It is found that there is one square-shaped hole-like, one square-shaped electron-like and one circle-shaped electron-like Fermi surface in both compounds. These results provide direct evidence for nesting instability giving rise to magnetic fluctuations. Our study clarifies that the electron correlation effects are changed with composition depending on the individual band.

description: Inspired by topological data analysis techniques, we introduce persistent homology observables and apply them in a geometric analysis of the dynamics of quantum field theories. As a prototype application, we consider data from a classical-statistical simulation of a two-dimensional Bose gas far from equilibrium. We discover a continuous spectrum of dynamical scaling exponents, which provides a refined classification of nonequilibrium self-similar phenomena. A possible explanation of the underlying processes is provided in terms of mixing strong wave turbulence and anomalous vortex kinetics components in point clouds. We find that the persistent homology scaling exponents are inherently linked to the geometry of the system, as the derivation of a packing relation reveals. The approach opens new ways of analyzing quantum many-body dynamics in terms of robust topological structures beyond standard field theoretic techniques.

 Remarks: Ornithonyssus bacoti is primarily an ectoparasite of introduced rats (Rattus), and their nests (Radovsky 2010). It is unclear about whether this is truly an ectoparasitic mite that is capable of infesting a wide range of native small mammals, or a complex of morphologically similar species with host specific habits. However, the present belief is that O. bacoti commonly abandons its primary host to infest man and his domestic and/or laboratory animals (Cole et al. 2005). It is a blood-feeder and its bite can cause skin dermatitis, with the potential for transmission of zoonoses to man and his domestic animals (Easterbrook et al. 2008). For this reason, it is important to note its strong association with domestic Rattus. In discussing the broad host distribution of O. bacoti, Radovsky (2010) notes the probability that it has spread “from post-Columbian human transport of host animals.”

Graphs indicate the average depth of reads from mRNA-Seq, as in Figure 3. Gene models in RAP-db based on the full length-cDNA sequences are shown as dark blue boxes. A previously annotated gene, AK240862, had additional exon(s) distal to the 5' end of the previous gene model and encoded an indole-3-glycerol phosphate lyase. Two other neighboring genes (AK072595, AK288107) were also similar to the indole-3-glycerol phosphate lyase gene. Although all three genes were up-regulated in response to salinity stress, their tissue specificities and expression levels were substantially different. Figure S3: Separation of predicted transcripts. Transcripts predicted from shoots (green boxes) or roots (red boxes) by the Cufflinks program are shown. Unlike the annotation in RAP-db based on the full length-cDNA sequence (blue boxes), predicted transcripts are separated because of a lack of bridging sequences between predicted exons.

description: The subject of the paper concentrates on the role that contemporary patent systems have to play in economies. The most important resource for economies has become knowledge, including, first and foremost, the technical knowledge, which is a foundation of inventions. The publication is an attempt to organize the current state of knowledge in the analysed area and to indicate the issues that, from the economic point of view, arouse the most controversy. Their previous undertaking in the source literature is characterized by selectivity and concentration primarily on legal aspects. However, there is no comprehensive discussion of the above problem in terms of economic sciences. The main objective is to highlight the new role of patent systems, thanks to which, after modernization of the existing structure, verification of the rules in force and improvement of the information system, their functioning would be adapted to market requirements to a greater extent than hitherto. The publication consists of a theoretical part based on literature and empirical research, in which the patent citations analysis method was used. The results of the conducted research indicate that the effective implementation of the information function is for patent systems both a challenge and an opportunity. They can be sanctioned in a new role, consistent with the guidelines of knowledge-based management. Creating and sharing substantively verified resources of specialist knowledge, used for research purposes and in engineering practice, creates the possibility of real impact on inventive activity, conditioning technical progress.

Publikacja stanowi próbę uporządkowania dotychczasowego stanu wiedzy w analizowanym obszarze oraz wskazanie tych zagadnień, które z perspektywy ekonomii budzą najwięcej kontrowersji. Ich dotychczasowe podejmowanie w literaturze przedmiotu cechuje wybiórczość i koncentracja przede wszystkim na aspektach prawnych. Brakuje natomiast kompleksowego omówienia powyższego problemu w ujęciu nauk ekonomicznych. Głównym celem opracowania jest wskazanie nowej roli systemów patentowych, dzięki której po modernizacji dotychczasowej struktury, weryfikacji obowiązujących w nim reguł oraz usprawnieniu systemu informacyjnego, ich funkcjonowanie w większym niż dotychczas stopniu przystosowane zostałoby do wymogów rynkowych. Publikacja składa się z części teoretycznej opartej na studiach literaturowych oraz empirycznej, w której wykorzystano metodę analizy cytowań patentowych.

description: We apply high resolution scanning tunneling microscopy to study intrinsic defect states of bulk FeSe. Four types of intrinsic defects including the type I dumbbell, type II dumbbell, top-layer Se vacancy and inner-layer Se-site defect are extensively analyzed by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. From characterized depression and enhancement of density of states measured in a large energy range, the type I dumbbell and type II dumbbell are determined to be the Fe vacancy and Se$_\mathrm{Fe}$ defect, respectively. The top-layer Se vacancy and possible inner-layer Se-site vacancy are also determined by spectroscopy analysis. The determination of defects are compared and largely confirmed in the annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy measurement of the exfoliated FeSe. The detailed mapping of defect states in our experiment lays the foundation for a comparison with complex theoretical calculations in the future.

description: The unification of X-ray and radio selected BL Lacs has been an outstanding problem in the blazar research in the past years. Recent investigations have shown that the gap between the two classes can be filled with intermediate objects and that apparently all differences can be explained by mutual shifts of the peak frequencies of the synchrotron and inverse Compton component of the emission. We study the consequences of this scheme using a new sample of X-ray selected BL Lac objects comprising 104 objects with z<0.9 and a mean redshift z=0.34. 77 BL Lacs, of which the redshift could be determined for 64 (83%) objects, form a complete sample. The new data could not confirm our earlier result, drawn from a subsample, that the negative evolution vanishes below a synchrotron peak frequency log (peak-frequency) = 16.5. The complete sample shows negative evolution at the 2 sigma level ( = 0.42 +- 0.04). We conclude that the observed properties of the HRX BL Lac sample show typical behaviour for X-ray selected BL Lacs. They support an evolutionary model, in which flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQ) with high energetic jets evolve towards low frequency peaked (mostly radio-selected) BL Lac objects and later on to high frequency peaked (mostly X-ray selected) BL Lacs.

Reducing Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections through Staff Education and Best Practice Guidelines
Creators: name: Desyr, Iselande
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

Background: Healthcare associated infections result in patient mortality and increase healthcare costs worldwide. These infections often lead to blood stream infections secondary to site contamination and human errors. Many of these infections could be avoided if proper aseptic techniques were used at all times by all staff.
Methods: This quality improvement project focused on reducing Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infections through staff education and current best-practice guidelines. The Institute for Healthcare Instrument recommends five key measures which were implemented at a sub-acute Health Care Center facility in Connecticut. Mandatory in-services for nursing staff were held with pre and post-tests to assess learning, record review to assess documentation of preventative measures and the overall trend for central line infections and length of stay were monitored.
Results: The 22 nurses who participated in the pre and post-tests surveys scored from 67% to 88%. The central line maintenance practices improved up to 40 % (30 % to 70 %.) and CLABSI prevention strategies provided a 54% (23% to 77%) improvement from pre to post intervention. There was a significant reduction of CLABSI’s of 78.3% from September 2019 to an average rate of 90% approximately three months post intervention.
Discussion: The survey results helped develop subsequent plan for educational interventions regarding appropriate central line practices and CLABSI prevention strategies. Changes resulted in large and sustained reduction in rates of infections that were maintained throughout an 18 month during project.

Disintegrating In-Bound Long-Period Comet C/2019 J2

description: We present observations of the disintegrating long-period comet C/2019 J2 (Palomar) taken to determine the nature of the object and the cause of its demise. The data are consistent with break-up of a sub-kilometer nucleus into a debris cloud of mass or order 1e9 kg, peaking on UT 2019 May 24+/-$12. This is 56 days before perihelion and at a heliocentric distance of 1.9 AU. We consider potential mechanisms of disintegration. Tidal disruption is ruled-out, because the comet has not passed within the Roche sphere of any planet. Impact disruption is implausible, because the comet orbit is highly inclined (inclination 105.1 deg) and disruption occurred far above the ecliptic, where asteroids are rare. The back-pressure generated by sublimation (0.02 to 0.4 N/m2) is orders of magnitude smaller than the reported compressive strength (30 to 150 N/m2) of cometary material and, therefore, is of no importance. The depletion of volatiles by sublimation occurs too slowly to render the nucleus inactive on the timescale of infall. However, we find that the e-folding timescale for spin-up of the nucleus by the action of sublimation torques is shorter than the infall time, provided the nucleus radius is smaller than 0.4 km. Thus, the disintegration of C/2019 J2 is tentatively interpreted as the rotational disruption of a sub-kilometer nucleus caused by outgassing torques.

Management of Type 2 Diabetes in African Americans: Increasing Knowledge Using a Culturally Tailored Diabetes Education Program
Creators: name: OJUKA, CHIGOZIRI
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

Background: African Americans are disproportionately affected by type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Efforts to improve health outcomes related to diabetes and reduce associated complications have focused on self-management. Purpose: This Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) project focuses on implementing a culturally tailored diabetes education program with the goal of increasing participants’ knowledge and management of their disease. Methods: This quality improvement project was implemented at a community health center in Dorchester, Massachusetts, with African American adults age 18 years and older. The culturally tailored educational sessions were conducted biweekly for a total of six sessions; each session lasted approximately 90 minutes. The American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) guidelines was used to develop the education curriculum. The session topics included an overview of diabetes, nutrition and healthy eating, physical activity, and stress management. A survey and diabetes knowledge questionnaire was administered at the first and the last group session. Results: Fourteen African Americans with T2DM, ages 42-67 years old, participated in the culturally tailored educational intervention. Ten participants completed the minimum of four sessions to be included in data analysis for this project. The results indicate that knowledge on self-management of diabetes increased, with 60% of the participants having >50% rate of improvement between the pre and post-test scores. Conclusion: The culturally tailored education demonstrated effectiveness in increasing knowledge of diabetes among African American adults. Diet, exercise, and stress management are considered necessary components in the management of diabetes and have been found to positively affect knowledge and self-monitoring of diabetes.

Optical Spectroscopy of GX 339-4 - Paper I: Orbital Modulation
Creators: name: Buxton, Michelle
name: Vennes, Stephane
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Optical spectroscopic observations of GX 339-4 were carried out between 1998 May (X-ray high state) and 1999 May (X-ray low state) over 7 epochs. The equivalent width of Halpha increased during the high state then decreased during the low state. The equivalent width of HeII 4686 decreased over both states. The full-width half-maximum of Halpha, Hbeta, HeII 4686 and the Bowen Blend increased from 1998 to 1999 indicating that the emission line regions moved closer to the compact object. Hbeta shows a redshifted absorption feature at 4880 angstroms at all epochs. This line remains unidentified. Analysis of individual spectra from 1998 May 28-31 show modulation of the radial velocities, equivalent width and V/R ratios of Halpha on the 14.86 hour orbital period. The equivalent width of HeII 4686 also varies on the orbital period. This is the first time since the study of Calanan et al. (1992) that spectroscopic data has confirmed the orbital period. The semi-amplitude of the Halpha radial velocities is K_1 = 14 km/s. Hence the mass function = 2 x 10^(-4) Msun.
