The impact of crowding in emergency departments on patient health and health outcomes : an instrumental variable analysis

description: It is commonly presumed that emergency department (ED) crowding results in the delivery of inferior quality health care and deleterious effects for acute patients. Yet a growing body of literature assessing outcomes for patients treated under crowded conditions has yielded inconsistent results. This dissertation identifies whether and to what extent crowding in hospital-based EDs has a causal impact on health outcomes. The conflicting evidence stems from both conceptual and empirical weaknesses in the crowding literature. Conceptually, no universal definition of crowding exists. Although most frequently defined as the incapacity to meet demand for ED services, there is a lack of consistency in how capacity is related to crowding (e.g., number of arrivals, occupants, proportion of unserved patients, etc.). The wide variation in conceptualization contributes to the use of myriad proxies to estimate crowding’s effect and to a rudimentary understanding of its impact. Additionally, studies measure an assortment of outcomes with discord among researchers over the most appropriate to assess causality. Policy and program recommendations have been advanced to mitigate crowding based on the perception that it is a problem, but evidence-based research reveals incongruency in the findings. Furthermore, empirical studies have not identified any more than an associative crowding-outcomes relationship, challenging inferences made about crowding’s true effects. This is primarily due to insufficient controls for endogenous variables, contributing to biased estimators. The obscurity in whether crowding affects patient health fuels debate about the underlying issue, consequences thereof, and efficacious and cost-effective strategies to address it. This dissertation aims to: (1) offer a new, standardizable tool to define and more accurately measure the degree of crowding; and (2) assess the relationship between ED crowding and health outcomes using a new construct of crowding – “patient arrival density,” to instrument for ED occupancy rate. This empirical study employs an instrumental variable estimation approach to evaluate the effect of crowding on probability of mortality, severe sepsis, diabetic ketoacidosis, and subsequent ED visits. Findings show crowding has no causal effect on any of these outcomes, suggesting resources targeted at reducing crowding in EDs may be better directed at identifying the true mechanisms that can lead to sentinel events. By taking a novel approach, this dissertation advances existing research and contributes to our knowledge of the crowding phenomenon, which subsequently can help better direct resources and future research aimed at improving the delivery of care in the acute healthcare system.
Effects of Longwall Mining on Hydrogeology, Leslie County, Kentucky Part 1: Pre-Mining Conditions

description: Abstract:
An investigation of the hydrologic effects of longwall coal mining is in progress in the Eastern Kentucky Coal Field. The study area is located in a first-order watershed in southern Leslie County over Shamrock Coal Company's Beech Fork Mine (Edd Fork Basin on the Helton 7.5-minute quadrangle). Longwall panels approximately 700 feet wide are separated by three-entry gateways 200 feet wide. The mine is operating in the Fire Clay coal (Hazard No. 4); overburden thickness ranges from 300 to 1,000 feet. Mining in the watershed began in late summer 1993. Undermining of the instrumented panel (panel 7) is anticipated for summer 1994. This report documents pre-mining hydrogeologic conditions.
Three sites over panel 7 (ridge-top, valley-side, and valley-bottom settings) were selected for intensive monitoring. An NX core hole was drilled at each site to provide stratigraphic control for well installation, to evaluate fractures, to conduct pressure-injection tests, and to provide a borehole for installation of time domain reflectometry cables. A rain gage and flume were installed in the basin in summer 1992. Twenty-four monitoring wells, completed in July 1992, provide water-level and water-quality data on individual stratigraphic zones represented by the three well locations.
Interpretation of pre-mining conditions was used to develop a conceptual model of ground-water flow in the study basin. Three ground-water zones were identified on the basis of hydraulic properties. The shallow-fracture zone, a highly conductive region parallel to the ground surface, extends to a depth of 60 to 70 feet. The elevation-head zone includes the ridge interior, mostly above drainage, where total head consists of elevation head only. The pressure head zone, largely below drainage, is the region where total head is the sum of elevation head and pressure head. Two fresh-water geochemical facies are also present. Shallow ground water is a calcium-magnesium-bicarbonatesulfate type, whereas ground water in the deeper regional system is sodium-bicarbonate type.
Anticipated effects from longwall mining include a decrease in water levels in the pressure-head zone. Temporary decreases are expected in the shallow-fracture zone as newly created void spaces subsequently fill. The elevation-head zone should not be greatly affected because it is predicted to be in the aquiclude zone.

description: We examine the effect of cluster size on the interaction of Ar$_{55}$-Ar$_{2057}$ with intense extreme ultraviolet (XUV) pulses, using a model we developed earlier that includes ionization via collisional excitation as an intermediate step. We find that the dynamics of these irradiated clusters is dominated by collisions. Larger clusters are more highly collisional, produce higher charge states, and do so more rapidly than smaller clusters. Higher charge states produced via collisions are found to reduce the overall photon absorption, since charge states of Ar$^{2+}$ and higher are no longer photo-accessible. We call this mechanism \textit{collisionally reduced photoabsorption}, and it decreases the effective cluster photoabsorption cross-section by more than 30% for Ar$_{55}$ and 45% Ar$_{2057}$. compared to gas targets with the same number of atoms. An investigation of the shell structure soon after the laser interaction shows an almost uniformly charged core with a modestly charged outer shell which evolves to a highly charged outer shell through collisions. This leads to the explosion of the outer positive shell and a slow expansion of the core, as was observed in mixed clusters at shorter wavelength [1]. The time evolution of the electron kinetic energy distribution begins as a (mostly) Maxwellian distribution. Larger clusters initially have higher temperature, but are overtaken by smaller temperature after the laser pulse. The electron velocity distribution of large clusters quickly become isotropic while smaller clusters retain the inherent anisotropy created by photoionization.Lastly, the total electron kinetic energy distribution is integrated over the spacial profile of the laser and the log-normal distribution of cluster size for comparison with a recent experiment [2], and good agreement is found.

description: The characterization of the wind speed vertical distribution V(h) is fundamental for an astronomical site for many different reasons: (1) the wind speed shear contributes to trigger optical turbulence in the whole troposphere, (2) a few of the astroclimatic parameters such as the wavefront coherence time (tau_0) depends directly on V(h), (3) the equivalent velocity V_0, controlling the frequency at which the adaptive optics systems have to run to work properly, depends on the vertical distribution of the wind speed and optical turbulence. Also, a too strong wind speed near the ground can introduce vibrations in the telescope structures. The wind speed at a precise pressure (200 hPa) has frequently been used to retrieve indications concerning the tau_0 and the frequency limits imposed to all instrumentation based on adaptive optics systems, but more recently it has been proved that V_200 (wind speed at 200 hPa) alone is not sufficient to provide exhaustive elements concerning this topic and that the vertical distribution of the wind speed is necessary. In this paper a complete characterization of the vertical distribution of wind speed strength is done above Mt.Graham (Arizona, US), site of the Large Binocular Telescope. We provide a climatological study extended over 10 years using the operational analyses from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), we prove that this is representative of the wind speed vertical distribution at Mt. Graham with exception of the boundary layer and we prove that a mesoscale model can provide reliable nightly estimates of V(h) above this astronomical site from the ground up to the top of the atmosphere (~ 20 km).

description: We present results from a numerical solution to the burning of neutron matter inside a cold neutron star into stable (u,d,s) quark matter. Our method solves hydrodynamical flow equations in 1D with neutrino emission from weak equilibrating reactions, and strange quark diffusion across the burning front. We also include entropy change due to heat released in forming the stable quark phase. Our numerical results suggest burning front laminar speeds of 0.002-0.04 times the speed of light, much faster than previous estimates derived using only a reactive-diffusive description. Analytic solutions to hydrodynamical jump conditions with a temperature dependent equation of state agree very well with our numerical findings for fluid velocities. The most important effect of neutrino cooling is that the conversion front stalls at lower density (below approximately 2 times saturation density). In a 2-dimensional setting, such rapid speeds and neutrino cooling may allow for a flame wrinkle instability to develop, possibly leading to detonation.

Role of material properties and mesostructure on dynamic deformation and shear instability in Al-W granular composites

description: Dynamic experiments with Al-W granular/porous composites revealed qualitatively different behavior with respect to shear localization depending on bonding between Al particles. Two-dimensional numerical modeling was used to explore the mesomechanics of the large strain dynamic deformation in Al-W granular/porous composites and explain the experimentally observed differences in shear localization between composites with various mesostructures. Specifically, the bonding between the Al particles, the porosity, the roles of the relative particle sizes of Al and W, the arrangements of the W particles, and the material properties of Al were investigated using numerical calculations. It was demonstrated in simulations that the bonding between the "soft" Al particles facilitated shear localization as seen in the experiments. Numerical calculations and experiments revealed that the mechanism of the shear localization in granular composites is mainly due to the local high strain flow of "soft" Al around the "rigid" W particles causing localized damage accumulation and subsequent growth of the meso/macro shear bands/cracks. The "rigid" W particles were the major geometrical factor determining the initiation and propagation of "kinked" shear bands in the matrix of "soft" Al particles, leaving some areas free of extensive plastic deformation as observed in experiments and numerical calculations.

description: Highly confined "spoof" surface plasmon-like (SSP) modes are theoretically predicted to exist in a perforated metal film coated with a thin dielectric layer. Strong modes confinement results from the additional waveguiding by the layer. Spectral characteristics, field distribution, and lifetime of these SSPs are tunable by the holes' size and shape. SSPs exist both above and below the light line, offering two classes of applications: "perfect" far-field absorption and to efficient emission into guided modes. It is experimentally shown that these plasmon-like modes can turn thin, weakly-absorbing semiconductor films into perfect absorbers.

Production and characterization of bio-oil from catalytic fast pyrolysis in a fluidized bed reactor
Creators: name: Sohani, Ketaki
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Development of alternate energy sources is needed to fulfil the global energy demands that have been steadily increasing over time. Biomass provides a solution due to its abundant availability, high energy content, and multi-faceted usage. Pyrolyzing biomass produces syngas, bio-oil, and char with their ratio of formation depending on temperature, residence time, and, heating rate. Conducting fast pyrolysis to produce bio-oil is the focus of this project. Currently, bio-oil can be produced with relatively low heating value, high acid number, and high viscosity compared to diesel. The use of a catalyst for fast pyrolysis was explored to study the effect on quality of bio-oil. In this work, ilmenite is considered as a catalyst for bio-oil pyrolysis and its impact on the product quality is assessed. Biomass pyrolysis is conducted in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor. The experimental setup consists of a feeding system, reactor vessel and product collection system. A pneumatic conveyor system using nitrogen is used to feed the ground biomass into the reactor. Biomass enters the fluidized reactor where it then volatilizes and forms a mixture of condensable gases, non-condensable gases and char. A multi-stage condenser is utilized to collect three separate stages depending on the condensation temperature. Reaction temperature and percentage of catalyst in the bed of the reactor were investigated. The produced bio-oil was characterized based on the acid number, water content, viscosity, elemental analysis, and heating value. The hypothesis was that catalyst and fractional condensation will increase the heating value of bio-oil by removing oxygenate compounds. The results showed that heating value, viscosity and acid number were affected by the oxygen to carbon ratio (O/C) and water content in the oil fractions, which indicates that the catalyst had an effect. Water content and O/C ratio decreased as the catalyst weight percentage and temperature increased. Ilmenite shows promising results in improving the quality of bio-oil as fuel but further experimentation is required to statistically support the effect of the catalyst.

AKARI infrared observations of edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 3079

description: We present AKARI near- to far-infrared images of the nearby edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 3079 in 10 photometric bands. The spectral energy distribution consists of continuum emission from dust with a single temperature of 28-33 K together with strong mid-infrared emission features from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). We derive the dust masses of 5.6x10^6 M_sun and 1.4x10^7 M_sun for the central 4 kpc region and the whole galaxy, respectively, and find that a gas-to-dust mass ratio is unusually high in the central region (\sim 1100) and even for the whole galaxy (\sim 860). The ratio of the surface brightness distribution at the wavelength of 7 um to that at 11 um suggests that the properties of PAHs have spatial variations. Emission from ionized and neutral PAHs is relatively strong in the center and the disk regions, respectively, suggesting stronger radiation field and thus relatively active star formation in the center. Yet the total infrared luminosities of the galaxy indicate rather low star formation rates. These results suggest that NGC 3079 is in an early-phase starburst stage.

The targum (1884:Nov. 21)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1884

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.
Suppression of Upsilon excited states in PbPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of 2.76 TeV
Creators: name: CMS Collaboration

description: A comparison of the relative yields of Upsilon resonances in the mu(+) mu(-) decay channel in PbPb and pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 2.76 TeV, is performed with data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Using muons of transverse momentum above 4 GeV/c and pseudorapidity below 2.4, the double ratio of the Upsilon(2S) and Upsilon(3S) excited states to the Upsilon(1S) ground state in PbPb and pp collisions,(Upsilon(2S+3S)/Upsilon(1S)[PbPb])/(Upsilon(2S+3S)/Upsilon(1S)[pp]), is found to be 0.31 - 0.15 + 0.19 (stat.) +/- 0.03 (syst.). The probability to obtain the measured value, or lower, if the true double ratio is unity, has been calculated to be less than 1%.
Unification Theory of Angular Magnetoresistance Oscillations in Quasi-One-Dimensional Conductors

description: We present a unification theory of angular magnetoresistance oscillations, experimentally observed in quasi-one-dimensional organic conductors, by solving the Boltzmann kinetic equation in the extended Brillouin zone. We find that, at commensurate directions of a magnetic field, resistivity exhibits strong minima. In two limiting cases, our general solution reduces to the results, previously obtained for the Lebed Magic Angles and Lee-Naughton-Lebed oscillations. We demonstrate that our theoretical results are in good qualitative and quantitative agreement with the existing measurements of resistivity in (TMTSF)$_2$ClO$_4$ conductor.

More than a transit port, but less than a refuge : Hong Kong and Jewish refugee transmigration, 1938-1941
Creators: name: Sun, Cheuk Him Ryan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: This thesis examines and situates Hong Kong within the context of Jewish refugee transmigration between 1938 and 1941. The necessity for Austrian and German Jews to escape persecution in Europe meant that some fled across the globe to Shanghai. However, the dominant image of Shanghai as the sole Jewish refuge in East Asia downplays the role of intermediaries along the path to safety. Centering on Hong Kong, I argue that these sites facilitate the movement of refugee Jews but also acted as refuges, albeit temporarily. Furthermore, I argue that Hong Kong specifically cannot be easily categorized as either. In addition to its role as an in between place or transit point, Hong Kong was also a temporary refuge for a small minority of escapees. Responses towards Jewish refugees emphasized either the individual‘s Jewish-ness or German-ness, both unstable and fluid social categories. I argue that the charity provided by local Jewish leaders to their refugee co-religionists was a way to avoid reifying older stereotypes of Jewish migrants as destitute, and to maintain the privileges held by Jewish elites. In contrast, the Hong Kong government was apathetic towards these refugees, until the outbreak of the Second World War, after which these individuals were primarily viewed as Germans or enemy aliens. The eventual Internment of such Jewish refugees at La Salle College represented a major manifestation of the perceived German threat. Despite local officials knowing that Jewish refugees were among those interned, German-ness was constructed and linked to the individual‘s nationality and passport. Scrutiny over characteristics of German-ness by local officials intensified in June 1940 with controversial decision to expel all enemy aliens from Hong Kong. I contend that this action can only be understood by considering larger geopolitics. In light of the rapid occupation of France and the Low Countries by Nazi Germany, as well as the Japanese occupation of South China, Hong Kong officials panicked. I argue that Hong Kong was more than a transit point, but less than a permanent refuge.
An Expanding Neutral Hydrogen Supershell Evacuated by Multiple Supernovae in M101

description: Several neutral hydrogen (HI) cavities have been detected in the Milky Way and other nearby star forming galaxies. It has been suggested that at least a fraction of them may be expanding supershells driven by the combined mechanical feedback from multiple supernovae occurring in an OB association. Yet most extragalactic HI holes have neither a demonstrated expansion velocity, nor an identified OB association inside them. In this work, we report on the discovery of an unbroken expanding HI supershell in the nearby spiral galaxy M101, with an UV emitting OB association inside it. We measure its size (500 pc) and expansion velocity (20 km/s) by identifying both its approaching and receding components in the position-velocity space, using 21 cm emission spectroscopy. This provides us with an ideal system to test the theory of supershells driven by the mechanical feedback from multiple supernovae. The UV emission of the cluster inside the supershell is compared with simulated spectral energy distribution of synthetic clusters of the appropriate age (~15 Myr). The observed UV flux is found to be consistent with an association of the appropriate mass (~10^5 Solar Mass) and age required by the energy budget of the supershell. Properties of this supershell and another previously reported in the same galaxy are used to infer its neutral hydrogen scale height and mean neutral hydrogen density in the disk. The presence of another UV emitting stellar association in over-dense swept up gas is discussed in the context of propagating star formation.

description: Soutenues par 108 universitaires et praticiens spécialistes du droit de la propriété intellectuelle et du patrimoine culturel au sein d’universités, d’institutions et d’organisations du patrimoine à travers le monde, Mathilde Pavis et Andrea Wallace répondent au Rapport Sarr-Savoy soumis au gouvernement français en 2018. Cette réponse souligne la nécessité pour le gouvernement français d’entreprendre davantage de recherches sur les questions de numérisation, de droit de propriété intellectuelle et de libre accès dans le cadre de la restitution du patrimoine culturel africain. Le rapport Sarr-Savoy décrit les problèmes juridiques et éthiques liés à la restitution en détail, mais ne traite de la numérisation, les droits de propriété intellectuelle et le libre accès que très brièvement. En l'état, le Rapport Sarr-Savoy est problématique dans la mesure où il recommande la numérisation systématique du patrimoine africain destiné à être restitué, et la mise à disposition en libre accès des fruits de cette numérisation. Ces recommandations doivent faire l’objet d’une analyse critique approfondie. Il est impératif que le gouvernement français adopte une stratégie de numérisation et de gestion des droits de la propriété intellectuelle plus nuancée que celle proposée par le Rapport Sarr-Savoy, et ce avant de procéder à la restitution du patrimoine culturel africain.
Measuring Top Squark Interactions With The Standard Model Through Associated Production

description: A new particle's interactions can be measured at colliders, by observing its associated production with Standard Model particles. We focus on the case of a collider-stable right-handed top squark and study the LHC sensitivities to its couplings to the photon, Z, and the Higgs boson. Such measurements determine the top squark's charge, mixing angle and coupling to the electroweak symmetry breaking sector. Determining these couplings can provide strong evidence for the supersymmetric solution to the hierarchy problem. Our analysis shows that the LHC has great prospects for measuring the photon and Higgs couplings, but will require a very high luminosity to measure the Z coupling.

description: HgTe/HgCdTe quantum wells with the inverted band structure have been probed using far infrared magneto-spectroscopy. Realistic calculations of Landau level diagrams have been performed to identify the observed transitions. Investigations have been greatly focused on the magnetic field dependence of the peculiar pair of "zero-mode" Landau levels which characteristically split from the upper conduction and bottom valence bands, and merge under the applied magnetic field. The observed avoided crossing of these levels is tentatively attributed to the bulk inversion asymmetry of zinc blend compounds.

Characterization of mental health in cannabis dispensary users, using structured clinical interviews and standardized assessment instruments

description: Medical cannabis has been reported to improve the symptoms of various mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression and chronic pain. Conversely, other studies have suggested that cannabis use contributes to mental health problems. Information gathered about medical cannabis users from previous studies have been mostly self-reported with limited diagnostic measures examining mental health. The goal of the present study was to expand on current research using standardized and clinical assessments to analyze the severity of mental health and any psychiatric conditions in a non-epidemiological population of medical cannabis users from a dispensary in Vancouver. We administered the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview, based on criteria from the DSM-IV-TR and ICD-10. In order to obtain detailed information about the general well-being and mental health of individuals, seven standardized assessments evaluated perceived stress, fatigue, sleep disturbances, depression, somatic symptoms, pain, and nicotine dependence. This will provide high quality data that can be better compared to other studies in the literature. Most frequently diagnosed conditions were anxiety, depression, and substance dependence, but most self-reported conditions were anxiety, sleep and depression. Results showed that medical cannabis users with a depression diagnosis had higher perceived stress, but severity of depression was mostly minimal. Many participants reported using cannabis to treat depression, but only three had current depression. Participants with any anxiety disorder mostly preferred to use pure CBD, and many had experienced negative effects with cannabis use. A diagnosis of specific anxiety disorders, such as GAD, PTSD or social phobia, were more likely to have higher perceived stress. Those with substance dependence diagnoses showed earlier onset of regular cannabis use, higher frequency of cannabis use and dispensary visits. Alcohol or other non-cannabis dependence diagnoses were more likely to be diagnosed with panic disorder, social phobia, and higher perceived stress. Our population did not have severe disturbances with sleep, somatic symptoms or pain ratings. 74% used cannabis daily, and the average cannabis amount used per week was 4.29 grams of dried cannabis. Ultimately, cannabis may provide a therapeutic option for individuals with mental health conditions looking for alternative treatments.
