Show morePurpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the learning needs of hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) by identifying their current HF self-care behaviors and knowledge levels, while identifying relationships between clinical variables (sociodemographic data and health history) and their learning needs. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional design was utilized to examine a convenience sample of 42 hospitalized patients with HF. Self-care behaviors and knowledge levels were measured using the Self Care of Heart Failure Index (SCHFI) V. 6.2., and the Japanese Heart Failure Knowledge Scale. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the learning needs and sociodemographic data. Pearson product moment correlation coefficient was utilized to examine relationships between the learning needs and clinical variables. Results: The mean scores of self-care were 38.6% (maintenance), 41.6% (management) and 17.8% (confidence). The participant’s mean knowledge level score was 74.9%. Multiple HF hospital readmissions had a significant negative correlation with HF knowledge scores (r = -.358, p = 0.020), suggesting the lower the knowledge score, the higher the prevalence of HF readmissions. There were significant positive correlations between self-care maintenance (r=.525, p<0.05), management (r=.435, p<.05), confidence (r=.366, p <.05), knowledge level (r=.752, p<.05) and not living alone. Thus, indicating that living with family support is correlated with better self-care and greater knowledge. The presence of multiple comorbidities revealed significant positive correlations (p<.05) with self-care scores (maintenance [r=.391], management [r=.438], and confidence r=.504]), indicating a higher number of comorbidities, yields lower self-care behaviors. Discussion: Findings reveal poor self-care behaviors in all three areas (maintenance, management, confidence). These findings suggest that patients have difficulty implementing knowledge into self-care. Conclusions: By identifying knowledge deficits and contributing factors to suboptimal self-care, the chronic care model can be used as a guideline for ideal HF education and management. Improving self-care behaviors can be obtained by initiating an active engagement between health care teams and the patient.

Show morePurpose: Postgraduate training provides support to help new NPs adjust to their role during the first year of practice. These programs have grown in number over the years, yet there is a lack of comprehensive data. The goal of this study was to gather in-depth data to connect these programs with APRN students. Methods: This descriptive research study used an inventory tool to collect data from program directors. Data was analyzed using univariate statistics. Results: Of the 67 active programs, 30 directors responded (45%) with most respondents in the Northeast (33%) or the West Coast (27%). Fifty percent of the responding programs had a primary care focus and were operating for an average of 51.4 months (mode 36, range 12 – 120). A master's degree, APRN licensure in the program's state, and national board certification were required for admission to most (>80%) programs. The average monthly compensation was $5,729.16 (Mode $6,000) and all programs offered medical insurance. The programs boasted an estimated employment rate of 89% upon completion with 12 months being the most common. Programs offered access to a resource person 96% of the time and many (68%) of them trained residents at multiple training sites and included specialty rotations (86%). Discussion: Further studies to track the development of postgraduate training are necessary as these programs continue to grow. Studies that compare the performance outcomes between NP postgraduates and NPs with comparable years of practice should be performed to assist with meaningful appraisals of this training. Conclusions: Data obtained assists in the understanding of current postgraduate training. Postgraduate training provides useful supplementary education for newly graduated NPs and specialty care NPs.

Show morePurpose: To understand knowledge gaps and barriers among Florida healthcare providers in the assessment and treatment of Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs). The information gathered should assist in making future recommendations to improve early screening and treatment of women with PMAD. Methods: The study was designed as a needs assessment questionnaire. ARNPs, PAs, DOs, and MDs with email addresses listed in the Florida Health Care Practitioner Data Portal were sent an investigator-developed survey. Following the survey, participants were provided a link to MothersMentalHealth.org, developed by the FSU College of Medicine, which provides resources and education for mothers, families and clinicians. Analysis was conducted using Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS) to determine how clinicians identified areas where they lacked preparedness in addressing PMADs and to identify differences in provider characteristics. Results: A total of 552 respondents completed the survey. Clinicians lack preparedness in six significant areas: appropriate use of language, detection of PMADs, care development, time and resource management, awareness of community resources, and provision of culturally specific care. Significant differences in preparedness were observed between disciplines. Discussion: Barriers to effectively addressing PMADs are all modifiable. Efforts are needed to improve the confidence, knowledge and preparedness of clinicians, regardless of specialty area, in the early detection, appropriate treatment and long-term management of patients with PMADs. Conclusions: Successful management of PMADs is critical for the welfare of women and their families. To further this research, it would be valuable to have PMAD education built into the requirements for all health care providers (HCPs) across the state of Florida. Simply increasing the awareness of available resources could improve PMAD outcomes.

Methods: This project employed a non-experimental, descriptive design with use of an online electronic survey. The convenience sample included volunteer participants who completed two survey tools (The Chronic Pain Myth Scale and the KnowPain-12) and demographic information. Data analyses were performed with version 2.0 IBM SPSS software, using descriptive statistics, and ANOVA. Results: The most common negative belief was that people suffering from chronic pain become dependent on their medications, like drug addicts (64%, n=323). There was also evidence that respondents believed that the severity of pain was exaggerated. In addition, findings revealed that respondents had an understanding of the biopsychosocial impacts of CP, yet demonstrated a limited opioid knowledge. Discussion: The knowledge gaps identified suggest that ER nurses need targeted pain management education, to enhance nurse’s knowledge, skills and attitude towards chronic pain. Reducing pain management disparities, by providing effective, safe and timely pain relief, requires sufficient knowledge, and ability to perform a thorough, unbiased pain assessment. Educational interventions should also be focused on CP’s pathophysiology, accurate assessment, non-opioid analgesia, and opioid treatment which includes information on state guidelines and regulations. Additionally, with considerable attention on the opioid crisis, ER nurses have a formidable task to ensure that chronic pain is not synonymous with drug addiction.

Show moreProblem Statement: Sepsis continues to be a major problem in many hospitals and healthcare settings throughout the United States. The effectiveness of early recognition accompanied by evidence-based treatment can make the difference between life and death. Nursing students must possess the knowledge and needed training to recognize early onset of sepsis in order to implement protocols for earlier resuscitation. Purpose: Apply educational interventions coupled with prep-test and post-test questions to evaluate nursing students’ requisite knowledge to identify and address early signs of sepsis. Methods: Employed a pre and post-test comparative design to measure the effectiveness of an educational session given to two groups of senior nursing students on the topic of early recognition and treatment of sepsis. Participation: ASN students (N=19 pre/post test) from a rural public state college in southeastern United States and BSN students (N= 72 pre-test) (N=73 post-test) from a large public state university in the southeastern United States. Results: N= 91 ASN and BSN students completed the pre-test and N = 92 ASN and BSN students completed the post-test. Majority of students were female 87.4%. The average age of participants largely fell within the age group of 18-25. ASN pre-test proportion of 0.36 pre-test, BSN proportion of correct answers on pre-test was 0.38 pre-test. ASN proportion of correct answers on post-test was 0.93 post-test and BSN proportion of correct answers on post-test was 0.90. Confidence interval of p < .001. Conclusions: There was a positive correlation between the sepsis educational session and post- test results in both the ASN and BSN cohorts.

Show moreThe state of Florida has the largest number of people over the age of 65 in the country; a cohort that continues to increase. Florida’s Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioners (ARNPs) play an integral role in providing health care for this cohort which often includes managing their comorbid conditions. This project was designed to identify existing knowledge gaps among Florida’s ARNPs regarding the screening and treatment methods of postmenopausal osteoporosis. The assessment tool, focused on four areas including: current screening and treatment practices for postmenopausal OP, prescription of Calcium, Vitamin D and anti-OP medications, referrals for bone density scanning and endocrinology, and fall prevention and education. A convenience sample of 24,115 active licensed Florida ARNPs was employed over a one-month period using an online needs assessment survey. Based on the analysis of data, 60% of the participants had never used a screening tool for postmenopausal women and 62% had never used a treatment algorithm for postmenopausal OP. Additionally, two of the focus areas were correlated with specific demographic variables. Findings from the project identified important knowledge gaps related to screening and treatment of individuals with postmenopausal OP.

Methods: The project used a pre/post descriptive design that included: 1) review of retrospective data from two sources to determine the number of inappropriate patient placements pre- and post- implementation of the SBAR tool and 2) a survey to determine nursing staff’s satisfaction before and after implementation. Data collection took place in a 300-bed inpatient hospital in Florida for seven months pre- and post- implementation through retrospective review of PRISM reports and unit logs, as well as, pre- and post -implementation surveys completed by RNs and LPNs. Results: Frequencies were calculated on both PRISM and Unit log data. Due to small sample sizes, only cumulative unit log totals were analyzed using a t-test and revealed no statistically significant difference between the pre –and post implementation data. None of the participants identified the new process as completely successful. Discussion: The discrepancy between the data in the unit logs and the data reported into the PRISM was significant and inferred that a lack of clarity and communication in reporting methods that may have played a role in the outcomes for this project. Conclusion: The limitations identified in the project need to be considered and addressed when planning similar studies.

Show morePurpose: Heart failure (HF) is a devastating, progressive disease. Many HF patients have undiagnosed depression, increasing mortality and hospital visits. Nurses and providers often fail to recognize depression in this population. Therefore, this project aimed to explore current nurse knowledge base regarding depression; identify barriers to depression screening in HF patients; and introduce two depression screening tools, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D-3) and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2). Methods: Using a quasi-experimental, pre/post design, an educational intervention was performed at a 300+ bed hospital, including a 15-minute educational intervention on depression and depression screening tools. Registered nurses completed a survey before (n = 51) and one month after (n = 31). Results: The sample was predominantly female (77%), 25-35 years old (67%), and cared for HF patients at least once a month (96%). The three largest barriers to depression screening reported included lack of time (100%), comfort level with patient (65%), and unsure how to assess (61%). Post-intervention, both nurses and patients responded better to the PHQ-2 versus the CES-D (77% versus 23%), with 74% of nurses using the tools at least once. This project observed a significant increase of comfort level and familiarity with depression (Z = -3.14, p < 0.04). Discussion: Although an improvement in comfort and familiarity with depression was noted, depression screens were not routinely used afterwards (74% used at least once). The intervention and/or the project duration may have been too short to notice a culture change. Conclusions: This project suggests that depression education can increase familiarity, comfort level, and knowledge of depression in nurses working with HF patients in acute care settings. The PHQ-2 may be a viable option to screening, given it was preferred over the CES-3, by both patient and nurses.

Show morePurpose: This study was designed to examine the existing gaps and awareness among nurses regarding unprofessional conduct and its impact on job retention and satisfaction as well as devising an intervention to alleviate this behavior. Methods: A descriptive study design with a convenience sample of 51 active licensed nurses in long term care facility in North Florida was used over a period of three months using a hand delivered needs assessment survey questionnaires. Results: This study reveals that neither level of education, nor years of experience increased nurse’s confidence level to avoid workplace inactivity. The “putdown” syndrome is the most common misconduct experienced by the nurses in their workplaces, it occurs in multiples with other types of unprofessional conduct, in most cases, on hourly and daily basis. Additional findings showed that the put down syndrome were more common between certified nursing assistants and licensed nurses. Discussion: This research indicates that disruptive clinician behavior exist in the workplace and it is key in undermining the organizations mission and culture. There can be overt and direct disruptive behavior by physician and nurses that are more passive-aggressive and are directed more at peers. In addition, reports from certified nursing assistants revealed that the “putdown syndrome” continues to exist largely between certified nurse assistants and licensed nurses and is very harmful to patient care. This is strong call for another study to investigate “put down syndrome” between licensed nurses and certified nurse assistants and its impact on patient care outcome.

Show morePurpose: Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) are responsible for approximately 40% of all hospital acquired infections. Over the past several years, hospitals have developed tools attempting to decrease CAUTI rates. Research suggests that nurse-driven protocols are effective in reducing CAUTI rates. The purpose of this project was to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational intervention related to a nurse-driven urinary catheter protocol in increasing registered nurses’ (RN) knowledge and compliance to the protocol. Methods:This study utilized a quasi-experimental pre-test, post-test and compliance self-report, to assess RNs’ knowledge and compliance to a nurse driven-urinary catheter protocol at a Southwest Florida hospital. RNs attended a nurse-driven protocol educational intervention, in which they completed both pre and post surveys and a compliance self-reports. The surveys and compliance self-reports were administered through SurveyMonkey. RNs reported compliance to the protocol on a Likert-type scale from 1-5. A paired sample t-test was done to compare the pretest and posttest results. A second paired sample t-test was done to compare the compliance self-reports completed before and after the educational session. Results: Thirty-two RNs participated in the study. The mean compliance prior to the educational intervention was 4.2, which increased to 4.7 after the educational intervention. The mean score on the pretest was 77%, increasing to 92% on the posttest. Discussion: Overall, the educational intervention was successful in increasing RNs’ knowledge and compliance to the nurse-driven urinary catheter protocol. Conclusion: The results suggest that providing education to RNs is critical. Reported compliance to the nurse-driven urinary catheter protocol is a critical step in increasing patient safety and decreasing the risks of CAUTIs.

Show moreThe transmission of HIV is increasing around the world and BMSM are at in increased risk for transmission because of the associated stigma related to HIV. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of HIV stigma, HIV status disclosure, and BMSM ability to access healthcare for prevention and treatment. A descriptive, correlational study examined the relationship between perceived stigma, HIV/AIDs disclosure, and access to healthcare. This study utilized a convenience sample for recruitment of participants on Facebook and Craigslist. A total of 30 young BMSM participated in this study. Feelings regarding knowledge of others regarding disease and the likelihood of disclosure were regressed. There was a statistically significant correlation between the participant’s feelings and likelihood of disclosure (p=0.37). The study indicated that perceived stigma affected BMSM undesirably, which in return decreased the likelihood of disclosure to others. Additionally, HIV-related stigma was considered to be a significant barrier for disclosure. Lastly, a total of 90% of the participants visited their HIV doctor. Many of the participants took antiretroviral medications despite the associated stigma that is surrounded by BMSM who are HIV positive. Additional educational interventions will need to be developed to decrease the rate of transmission in HIV positive BMSM.

Show morePurpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the impact sleep related infant deaths have in the state of Florida by determining sleep related infant mortality rates for each county. Methods: Maternal and infant health data obtained from FLHEALTHCHARTS between 2010 and 2015 was analyzed for trends in infant sleep mortality related to maternal characteristics including race, maternal country of origin, and timing of prenatal care status were evaluated. Results: There are six counties where the SIDS rate exceeds the state average indicating that an educational intervention to increase compliance with the AAP safe sleep recommendations would be most beneficial. Analysis of the Kotelchuck index (KI) shows there is statistically significant evidence to demonstrate initiation of adequate prenatal care results in a decrease in infant mortality related to unsafe infant sleeping. Discussion: Healthy People 2020 identified infant mortality as a key factor in overall poor maternal and infant health. National and statewide statistics continue to indicate that SUID is a significant killer of infants and SIDS is the third leading cause of infant death nationally. Review of literature indicates that providing better prenatal and postnatal safe sleep education for infant caregivers is a key component in improving overall infant mortality. Conclusions: The knowledge that improved education can have an impact on infant mortality is a key finding in the continued quest to improve overall U.S. maternal and child health. Specifically, targeted educational interventions in the acute care setting can be effective at improving compliance with the AAPs recommendations and decrease overall infant mortality. Further research is needed to develop a tool to utilize in the acute care setting to streamline education received by infant caregivers.

Show morePurpose: The purpose of this quality improvement (QI) project was to increase the rates of routine cervical cancer screening (CCS) in eligible women of ages 21-64 years in an Adult Health Clinic (AHC) at a Community Health Center (CHC). The specific aim of this project was to determine the effect of a new CCS protocol and “Pap & Physical” appointments on cervical cancer screening incidence rates (CCSIRs). Methods: A QI committee developed a new CCS protocol and provided staff training on it. Pap & Physical appointments were also implemented along with client and provider reminder/recall interventions. A pretest/posttest design was used to determine effectiveness of these interventions. Results: The sample (N = 3354) consisted of all women of ages 23-64 years who presented for care during the pre- and post-intervention periods. The chi-square test did not reveal a significant association between the screening status and the pre- and post-intervention periods. The effect size was small (χ2 = 2.89, df = 1, p = 0.089, φ = 0.067). The overall CCSIRs did not improve from the pre- to post-intervention period (23% and 19.6% respectively). Discussion: There was no improvement in CCSIR from the pre- to post-intervention period despite interventions that targeted multiple barriers. Patients, staff, and system related factors affected CCSIRs. Information gleaned from this preliminary study should be used in further PDSA cycles and this has the potential to streamline processes and improve CCS rates in the AHC. Conclusion: To meet Healthy People 2020 goal for CCS, healthcare environments should evaluate their current CCS rates and implement evidence-based interventions in a manner that is adaptable to the healthcare environment’s workflow. Effective training and post-training assessment should be provided to staff. Providers should administer Pap smears on the same day as physical exams to reduce the need for multiple appointments. Studies addressing provider unwillingness to perform Pap smears are needed.

More specifically, the study was intended to explore the impact of self-selected music on individual pain level as well as patient satisfaction during the recovery period. Methods: Participants in this study underwent elective outpatient surgery. Subjects were selected using a convenience sampling technique. Participants listened to pre-recorded music of their choice on a personal music device in the post-operative period. Data was gathered using the Numerical Rating Scale for pain (0-10), a post-intervention discharge survey, and a demographical questionnaire. Results: A p value of 0.001 demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in patient’s pain levels after listening to music. In addition, 50% of the patients expressed satisfaction with overall pain control and 59% felt that listening to music was extremely effective in decreasing their pain. Of the 12 eligible participants in the study, 11 said they would recommend music as an adjunct therapy. Discussion: The results of the study showed that music can indeed be beneficial in the post-operative period for the reduction of patient pain. Furthermore, music can enhance patient satisfaction. Conclusions: The incorporation of music into the post-operative recovery area is a viable option. Music can be considered as an adjunctive therapy to traditional nursing care.

Title: A Mathematical Model for the Determination of Mouse Excisional Wound Healing Parameters from Photographic Data.
Creator: Cogan, Nicholas G, Mellers, Alana, Patel, Bhavi, Powell, Brett, Aggarwal, Manu, Harper, Kathleen M, Blaber, Michael
Abstract/Description: We present a mathematical model to quantify parameters of mouse excisional wound healing from photographic data. The equation is a piecewise linear function in log scale that includes key parameters of initial wound radius (R0), an initial wound stasis phase (Ti), and time to wound closure (Tc); subsequently, these terms permit calculation of a latter active proliferative phase (Tp), and the healing rate (HR) during this active phase.

Show moreWe present a mathematical model to quantify parameters of mouse excisional wound healing from photographic data. The equation is a piecewise linear function in log scale that includes key parameters of initial wound radius (R0), an initial wound stasis phase (Ti), and time to wound closure (Tc); subsequently, these terms permit calculation of a latter active proliferative phase (Tp), and the healing rate (HR) during this active phase. A daily photographic record of wound healing (utilizing 6 mm diameter splinted excisional wounds) permits the necessary sampling for robust parameter refinement. When implemented with an automated nonlinear fitting routine, the healing parameters are determined in an operator-independent (i.e. unbiased) manner. The model was evaluated using photographic data from a splinted excisional surgical procedure involving several different mouse cohorts. Model fitting demonstrates excellent coefficients of determination (R2) in each case. The model thus permits quantitation of key parameters of excisional wound healing, from initial wounding through to wound closure, from photographic data.

Show moreAbstract Purpose: The purpose of this quality improvement (QI) project was to develop, implement and evaluate an Alarm Management QI Program in an intensive care unit (ICU) of a community hospital. The specific aims of the project were to reduce the number of ECG and pulse oximetry nuisance alarms, increase RN knowledge of alarm management and improve RN competency in management of ECG and pulse oximetry alarms. Methods: An online education program was developed and required for all ICU nursing staff. In addition, RN alarm management competency was validated through a peer review process. A descriptive comparison design was used to examine the effectiveness of this quality improvement program. Results: The number of alarms elicited during the period of study significantly improved (p < 0.05) as a result of the educational program. Pre and posttest scores also showed improvement from a mean score of 57% to 78%. Competency validation results confirmed the majority of the peer review participants performed the expected practices. Conclusions: The Alarm Management Quality Improvement Program demonstrated positive changes to staff knowledge and competency, as well as the overall alarm occurrences in the unit after the intervention. Healthcare facilities can improve patient safety and minimize alarm fatigue by establishing alarm management policies, providing education and utilizing peer review to assure staff competency.

Show morePurpose: Childhood obesity is one of the most challenging and complex epidemics in today’s society. According to the World Health Organization, it is estimated the prevalence of childhood obesity will increase from 7% in 2012 to 11% in 2025. The purpose of the project is to identify factors that may influence parental perception of a child’s weight status. Methods: Parents of children aged 6-12 were surveyed regarding their child’s healthy behaviors, demographic information and perception of child’s current weight. Parents were also asked to select a body type they felt most accurately represented their child from a sketch which included 7 different body types. Children’s height and weight were measured and BMI was calculated. Parents were also asked to give a verbal description such as a little underweight, about the right weight, or overweight. Results: Thirty-two parents participated the survey. Nineteen out of 27 parents (70%) correctly perceived their children’s weight status. Common factors such as income, employment status, providing opportunities for physical activity and healthy eating habits were identified as impacting how a parent perceived their child’s weight status. Eighty percent of parents that provided an opportunity for physical activity to their child perceived their child to be about the right weight. Half of the parents that never/almost never provided an opportunity for physical activity perceived their child to be overweight. Discussion: If health care providers understand the elements affecting parental perception, there is an opportunity for change. Discussing healthy eating habits, limiting amount of screen time spent on electronics or television, and the importance of physical activity may heighten understanding. Conclusion: As a country with an increasing rate of childhood obesity it is imperative to identify causative factors prompting this epidemic. Although parents play an integral role in managing their child’s weight there are many other influences affecting obesity. Future research is needed to gain more insight and create a shared responsibility.

Show morePurpose of the Project: Advance care planning (ACP) has been shown to reduce unwanted care at end of life. However, rates of documentation of advance directives (ADs) are low in most settings. The aim of this project was to increase the number of ACP discussions that occur in a primary care clinic between provider and patient. Methods: The setting for this project was a family medicine residency program in a health system-owned practice, which included 20 resident physicians, six faculty physician providers and one advanced registered nurse practitioner (ARNP). The first phase was an evaluation of an educational program for providers on ACP with the goal of increasing provider willingness to engage in ACP. The second phase was a quality improvement (QI) initiative involving clinical and non-clinical staff in the primary care office, using the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) framework. Results: Through the initial stages of the PDCA, participants identified awareness of ACP among patients, staff, and providers to be the most important factor in improving rates of ACP. A month-long awareness campaign was initiated, with specific activities to promote ACP. No significant change was identified in the number of ADs scanned into the EMR or in the number of ACP procedure codes billed before and after initiation of the QI intervention. Discussion: Through the course of the QI initiative, participants recognized that both staff and provider education is essential in improving ACP. They also identified that more patient education and outreach is needed. An awareness campaign was successful in encouraging discussion of ACP and its importance, but did not have an overall impact on rates of ACP. Conclusions: Changing culture and attitudes about ACP requires a comprehensive, multi-level strategy to engage providers, staff, and patients.

Show moreAbstract Purpose: The purpose of this quality improvement project was to develop, implement and evaluate the impact of an Urinary Retention Management protocol on indwelling urinary catheter utilization and incidence of bladder overdistention. The specific aims of the study were to decrease indwelling urinary catheter utilization and decrease the incidence of bladder volumes greater than 600 ml. Methods: The new protocol was implemented on inpatient medical-surgical, rehabilitation, and intensive care units. An online education module was required for all nurses. A descriptive comparison design was employed to evaluate the impact of the protocol utilizing de-identified retrospective electronic medical record data to compare the Urinary Catheter Utilization ratio and the incidence of bladder volumes above 600 ml pre- and post-implementation of the new protocol. Results: The data for pre-implementation period included 655 bladder scans with 295 volumes above 600 ml and 1125 bladder scans with 489 volumes above 600 ml for post-implementation period. The mean Catheter Utilization ratio decreased from 0.225 to 0.437, but the z-score 1.60 was not statistically significant. The ratio of incidences of bladder overdistention decreased from 0.450 to 0.437. There was a statistically significant decrease in mean bladder volumes above 600 ml from 786.72 ml to 765.51 ml in the pre-and post-implementation periods. The ratio of documented bladder scans increased from 1.9 to 3.20. Discussion: The implementation of a standardized urinary retention management protocol improved the monitoring of urinary retention, decreased severity of bladder overdistention and incidence of bladder volumes above 600 ml. Conclusions: This study reflected a modest positive effect on reducing the Indwelling Urinary Catheter Utilization ratio and incidences of bladder overdistention. Regardless of challenges associated with managing of urinary retention, implementation of evidence-based urinary retention management protocols can lead to early recognition and treatment of urinary retention for improving patient safety.

Show morePurpose: The aim of this study was to increase awareness of contraceptive methods and measure the likelihood that participants request a more effective method, including long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs), than they are currently using. Methods: This project was a quazi-experimental, cross-sectional designed study. The intervention consisted of one-on-one time with an experienced family planning nurse using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “Effectiveness of Family Planning Methods” handout as a teaching tool (CDC, 2017). A post-survey measured how likely women were to ask about more effective contraceptives including LARC. Results: Data was collected over a four day period, resulting in 17 participants. Six women (35.3%) were using no method. Post intervention, three (50%) stated they would talk with their practitioner about a more or most effective method of birth control. Three women were using a less effective method. One hundred percent of these women were likely to ask about most effective methods. Five participants (29.4%) were using a moderately effective method. Three of these five (60%) were interested in a most effective method. Three participants (17.6%) were already using a most effective method. Discussion: Nine of the 17 participants (52.9%) were likely to ask their practitioner about LARC. This demonstrates a positive correlation between contraceptive education and increased interest in LARC. Conclusion: LARC family planning methods, although proven safe and effective methods of birth control, are underutilized in the United States. When provided education on all available methods, women are better equipped to choose a method that not only fits their lifestyle, but also offers a high level of efficacy. More research with larger numbers of study participants is needed to determine best practices for improving LARC usage in the United States.

Title: Investigating the Dynamics and Polyanion Binding Sites of Fibroblast Growth Factor-1 Using Hydrogen-Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry.
Creator: Angalakurthi, Siva K, Tenorio, Connie A, Blaber, Michael, Middaugh, Russell
Abstract/Description: In this study, we examined the local dynamics of acidic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-1) as well as the binding sites of various polyanions including poly-sulfates (heparin and low MW heparin) and poly-phosphates (phytic acid and ATP) using hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HX-MS).

For local dynamics, results are analyzed at the peptide level as well as in terms of buried amides employing crystallographic B-factors and compared with a residue level heat map generated from HX-MS results. Results show that strand 4 and 5 and the turn between them to be the most flexible regions as was previously seen by NMR. On the other hand, the C-terminal strands 8, 9 and 10 appear to be more rigid which is also consistent with crystallographic B-factors as well as local dynamics studies conducted by NMR. Crystal structures of FGF-1 in complex with heparin have shown that heparin binds to N-terminal Asn18 and to C-terminal Lys105, Tryp107, Lys112, Lys113, Arg119, Pro121, Arg122, Gln127 and Lys128 indicating electrostatic forces as dominant interactions. Heparin binding as determined by HX-MS is consistent with crystallography data. Previous studies have also shown that other polyanions including low MW heparin, phytic acid and ATP dramatically increase the thermal stability of FGF-1. Using HX-MS, we find other poly anions tested bind in a similar manner to heparin, primarily targeting the turns in the lysine rich C-terminal region of FGF-1 along with two distinct N-terminal regions that contains lysines and arginines/ histidines. This confirms the interactions between FGF-1 and polyanions are primary directed by electrostatics.

Show moreThe objective of this study was to investigate the interaction of the nitrogen (N) cycle with methane production in the Florida Everglades, a large freshwater wetland. This study provides an initial analysis of the distribution and expression of N-cycling genes in Water Conservation Area 2A (WCA-2A), a section of the marsh that underwent phosphorus (P) loading for many years due to runoff from upstream agricultural activities. The elevated P resulted in increased primary productivity and an N limitation in P-enriched areas. Results from quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) analyses indicated that the N cycle in WCA-2A was dominated by nifH and nirK/S, with an increasing trend in copy numbers in P-impacted sites. Many nifH sequences (6 to 44% of the total) and nifH transcript sequences (2 to 49%) clustered with the methanogenic Euryarchaeota, in stark contrast to the proportion of core gene sequences representing Archaea (<= 0.27% of SSU rRNA genes) for the WCA-2A microbiota. Notably, archaeal nifH gene transcripts were detected at all sites and comprised a significant proportion of total nifH transcripts obtained from the unimpacted site, indicating that methanogens are actively fixing N-2. Laboratory incubations with soils taken from WCA-2A produced nifH transcripts with the production of methane from H-2 plus CO2 and acetate as electron donors and carbon sources. Methanogenic N-2 fixation is likely to be an important, although largely unrecognized, route through which fixed nitrogen enters the anoxic soils of the Everglades and may have significant relevance regarding methane production in wetlands. IMPORTANCE Wetlands are the most important natural sources of the greenhouse gas methane, and much of that methane emanates from (sub) tropical peatlands. Primary productivity in these peatlands is frequently limited by the availability of nitrogen or phosphorus; however, the response to nutrient limitations of microbial communities that control biogeochemical cycling critical to ecosystem function may be complex and may be associated with a range of processes, including methane production. We show that many, if not most, of the methanogens in the peatlands of the Florida Everglades possess the nifH gene and actively express it for N-2 fixation coupled with methanogenesis. These findings indicate that archaeal N-2 fixation would play crucial role in methane emissions and overall N cycle in subtropical wetlands suffering N limitation.

Show morePremise of research.In a plant population, the pattern of spatial dispersion from uniform to strongly aggregated can influence the intensity of ecological interactions, including those between plants and their consumers, such as herbivorous insects. Whether insect herbivores also contribute to the generation of dispersion patterns within plant populations, however, is not well understood. We investigated how insect herbivory and plant density interact to influence the degree of aggregation of stems in experimental plots of the clonal perennial herb Solanum carolinense, a noxious weed in the southeastern United States and invasive in other parts of the world.Methodology.We planted S. carolinense in 40 experimental plots at five densities and maintained each plot at one of two herbivory levels. Stems in every plot were initially planted in a uniform dispersion pattern. For 3 yr, we quantified the dispersion of clonal recruits in each plot at six spatial scales.Pivotal results.At larger spatial scales, we found significant interactions between plant density and insect herbivory. In plots with herbivores, spatial aggregation increased as plant density decreased, but this relationship was weak or nonexistent in plots where herbivores were excluded (herbivore-excluded plots exhibited random dispersion of stems across all densities). Solanum carolinense in plots exposed to herbivores were on average twice as aggregated as those that had herbivores excluded.Conclusions.These results suggest that insect herbivores can influence clonal growth or ramet survival in ways that increase population-level aggregation of S. carolinense. Our findings also imply that S. carolinense populations in its invasive range may have increased spatial spread and decreased intraspecific competition when herbivory is low. We discuss the potential for specific types of feedbacks between insect damage and plant dispersion, highlighting important targets for future research.

Show moreWithin the peer-reviewed literature, there is a shortage of experimental and quasi-experimental studies examining libraries' impact on children's early literacy development. Therefore, Project VIEWS2 (Valuable Initiatives in Early Learning That Work Successfully 2) used a quasi-experimental design to understand whether an intervention to train public library storytime providers in early literacy principles makes a difference in children's early literacy skills. In the experimental group, comparisons of preintervention and postintervention data showed statistically significant increases in the early literacy behaviors of the providers and attendees in the experimental group. There were no significant changes in the early literacy behaviors of control group providers and their attendees. A purposeful focus on early literacy principles makes a difference in storytime programs and in early literacy behaviors when children attend storytime. This article examines the design and delivery of the intervention, its effects on the study population, and its implications for practice.

Show moreFollowing a decade of unprecedented investment, China now has the world's largest installed base of wind power capacity. Yet, despite siting most wind farms in the wind-rich Northern and Western provinces, electricity generation from Chinese wind farms has not reached the performance benchmarks of the United States and many other advanced economies. This has resulted in lower environmental, economic, and health benefits than anticipated. We develop a framework to explain the performance of the Chinese and US wind sectors, accounting for a comprehensive set of driving factors. We apply this framework to a novel dataset of virtually all wind farms installed in China and the United States through the end of 2013. We first estimate the wind sector's technical potential using a methodology that produces consistent estimates for both countries. We compare this potential to actual performance and find that Chinese wind farms generated electricity at 37%-45% of their annual technical potential during 2006-2013 compared to 54%-61% in the United States. Our findings underscore that the larger gap between actual performance and technical potential in China compared to the United States is significantly driven by delays in grid connection (14% of the gap) and curtailment due to constraints in grid management (10% of the gap), two challenges of China's wind power expansion covered extensively in the literature. However, our findings show that China's underperformance is also driven by suboptimal turbine model selection (31% of the gap), wind farm siting (23% of the gap), and turbine hub heights (6% of the gap)-factors that have received less attention in the literature and, crucially, are locked-in for the lifetime of wind farms. This suggests that besides addressing grid connection delays and curtailment, China will also need policy measures to address turbine siting and technology choices to achieve its national goals and increase utilization up to US levels.

Show more2012 DR30 is one of the known solar system objects with the largest aphelion distance, exceeding 2200 au, on a high inclination orbit (i = 78 degrees). It has been recognized to be either a borderline representative of high inclination, high perihelion distance (HiHq) objects, or even a new class of bodies, similar to HiHq objects for orbit but with an aphelion in the inner Oort Cloud. Here, we present photometry using long-term data from 2000 to 2013 taken by the SDSS sky survey, ESO MPG 2.2 m and McDonald 2.1 m telescopes, and a visual+near-infrared spectrum taken with the Southern Astrophysical Research Telescope and Magellan telescopes, providing insights into the surface composition of this body. Our best fit suggests that the surface contains 60% of complex organics (30% of Titan and 30% of Triton tholins) with a significant fraction of ice (30%, including pure water and water with inclusions of complex organics) and 10% silicates. The models also suggest a low limit of amorphous carbons, and hence the fragmentation of long-chained complex organics is slower than their rate of generation. 2012 DR30 just recently passed the perihelion, and the long-term photometry of the object suggested ambiguous signs of activity, since the long-term photometric scatter well exceeded the supposed measurement errors and the expected brightness variation related to rotation. Photometric colors put 2012 DR30 exactly between dark neutral and red objects, thus it either can be in a transition phase between the two classes or have differing surface properties from these populated classes.

Show moreObjectives: To (1) describe sleep problems in a large, multi-university sample of college students; (2) evaluate sex differences; and (3) examine the unique associations of mental health symptoms (i.e., anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder inattention [ADHD-IN], ADHD hyperactivity-impulsivity [ADHD-HI]) in relation to sleep problems. Methods: 7,626 students (70% female; 81% White) ages 18-29 years (M = 19.14, SD = 1.42) from six universities completed measures assessing mental health symptoms and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results: A substantial minority of students endorsed sleep problems across specific sleep components. Specifically, 27% described their sleep quality as poor, 36% reported obtaining less than 7 hours of sleep per night, and 43% reported that it takes >30 minutes to fall asleep at least once per week. 62% of participants met cut-off criteria for poor sleep, though rates differed between females (64%) and males (57%). In structural regression models, both anxiety and depression symptoms were uniquely associated with disruptions in most PSQI sleep component domains. However, anxiety (but not depression) symptoms were uniquely associated with more sleep disturbances and sleep medication use, whereas depression (but not anxiety) symptoms were uniquely associated with increased daytime dysfunction. ADHD-IN symptoms were uniquely associatedwith poorer sleep quality and increased daytime dysfunction, whereas ADHD-HI symptoms were uniquely associated with more sleep disturbances and less daytime dysfunction. Lastly, ADHD-IN, anxiety, and depression symptoms were each independently associated with poor sleep status. Conclusions: This study documents a high prevalence of poor sleep among college students, some sex differences, and distinct patterns of mental health symptoms in relation to sleep problems.

Title: Sea Surface Temperatures And Seagrass Mortality In Florida Bay: Spatial And Temporal Patterns Discerned From Modis And Avhrr Data.
Creator: Carlson, Daniel F., Yarbro, Laura A., Scolaro, Sheila, Poniatowski, Michael, McGee-Absten, Vicki, Carlson, Paul R.
Abstract/Description: Two major episodes of seagrass mortality have occurred in Florida Bay in the past 30 years: The first occurred between 1987 and 1991 and the second began in 2015.

Show moreTwo major episodes of seagrass mortality have occurred in Florida Bay in the past 30 years: The first occurred between 1987 and 1991 and the second began in 2015. In both episodes, dense beds of turtle grass (Thalassia testudinum) were decimated. Elevated water temperature and hypersalinity have been implicated as contributing factors in both mortality events. During both die-off events seagrass beds on shallow (Z approximate to 0.3 m) mudbanks in western Florida Bay were disproportionately affected when compared to neighboring seagrass in deeper basins (Z approximate to 1.5 m). A network of in situ monitoring stations has measured sea surface temperature and salinity at hourly intervals in 16 basins in Florida Bay from August 2009 to the present day and these data aided in diagnosing the 2015-2016 die-off event. However, very few in situ observations of sea surface temperature have been collected on Florida Bay's shallow mudbanks as most are inaccessible by boat. As a result, our understanding of the role of elevated SST in shaping the spatial patterns of seagrass mortality is hindered by the spatial distribution of the in situ monitoring data and its record length. Therefore, we turn to remotely sensed SST data to expand our spatial coverage to include the entire Florida Bay ecosystem and to extend the record length to include the 1987-1991 die-off event. 1 km MODIS SST shows that shallow mudbanks were consistently warmer (by up to 6 degrees C) than nearby deeper basins. While water depth is likely the primary driver of spatial variability in SST, Landsat-8 surface reflectance data suggest that shallow seagrass beds could have suffered from the added influence of low surface reflectance, which might have further contributed to their thermal stress. Daily 0.25 degrees AVHRR SST shows that the August maximum SST has increased by 1 degrees C from 1981 to 2016, which is a cause for concern for the future of seagrass in Florida Bay. Correlation of monthly AVHRR SST anomalies with the multivariate ENSO index shows that ENSO can only partially explain the anomalous temperatures. When viewed together, the in situ and remotely sensed SST suggests that both extended exposure to anomalously warm temperatures and large, rapid changes in temperature could have contributed to seagrass mortality during both events.

Title: Responses Of Runoff To Historical And Future Climate Variability Over China.
Creator: Wu, Chuanhao, Hu, Bill X., Huang, Guoru, Wang, Peng, Xu, Kai
Abstract/Description: China has suffered some of the effects of global warming, and one of the potential implications of climate warming is the alteration of the temporal-spatial patterns of water resources. Based on the long-term (1960-2008) water budget data and climate projections from 28 global climate models (GCMs) of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), this study investigated the responses of runoff (R) to historical and future climate variability in China at both grid and catchment...
Show moreChina has suffered some of the effects of global warming, and one of the potential implications of climate warming is the alteration of the temporal-spatial patterns of water resources. Based on the long-term (1960-2008) water budget data and climate projections from 28 global climate models (GCMs) of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), this study investigated the responses of runoff (R) to historical and future climate variability in China at both grid and catchment scales using the Budyko-based elasticity method. Results show that there is a large spatial variation in precipitation (P) elasticity (from 1.1 to 3.2) and potential evaporation (PET) elasticity (from -2.2 to -0.1) across China. The P elasticity is larger in northeastern and western China than in southern China, while the opposite occurs for PET elasticity. The catchment properties' elasticity of R appears to have a strong non-linear relationship with the mean annual aridity index and tends to be more significant in more arid regions. For the period 19602008, the climate contribution to R ranges from -2.4 to 3.6% yr(-1) across China, with the negative contribution in north-eastern China and the positive contribution in western China and some parts of the south-west. The results of climate projections indicate that although there is large uncertainty involved in the 28 GCMs, most project a consistent change in P (or PET) in China at the annual scale. For the period 2071-2100, the mean annual P is projected to increase in most parts of China, especially the western regions, while the mean annual PET is projected to increase in all of China, particularly the southern regions. Furthermore, greater increases are projected for higher emission scenarios. Overall, due to climate change, the arid regions and humid regions of China are projected to become wetter and drier in the period 2071-2100, respectively (relative to the baseline 1971-2000).

Abstract/Description: We present an analysis of ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared observations of the fast-declining Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) 2007on and 2011iv, hosted by the Fornax cluster member NGC 1404. The B-band light curves of SN 2007on and SN 2011iv are characterised by Delta m(15)(B) decline-rate values of 1.96 mag and 1.77 mag, respectively. Although they have similar decline rates, their peak B-and H-band magnitudes di ff er by similar to 0.60 mag and similar to 0.35 mag, respectively. After...
Show moreWe present an analysis of ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared observations of the fast-declining Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) 2007on and 2011iv, hosted by the Fornax cluster member NGC 1404. The B-band light curves of SN 2007on and SN 2011iv are characterised by Delta m(15)(B) decline-rate values of 1.96 mag and 1.77 mag, respectively. Although they have similar decline rates, their peak B-and H-band magnitudes di ff er by similar to 0.60 mag and similar to 0.35 mag, respectively. After correcting for the luminosity vs. decline rate and the luminosity vs. colour relations, the peak B-band and H-band light curves provide distances that di ff er by similar to 14% and similar to 9%, respectively. These findings serve as a cautionary tale for the use of transitional SNe Ia located in early-type hosts in the quest to measure cosmological parameters. Interestingly, even though SN 2011iv is brighter and bluer at early times, by three weeks past maximum and extending over several months, its B - V colour is 0.12 mag redder than that of SN 2007on. To reconcile this unusual behaviour, we turn to guidance from a suite of spherical one-dimensional Chandrasekhar-mass delayed-detonation explosion models. In this context, Ni-56 production depends on both the so-called transition density and the central density of the progenitor white dwarf. To first order, the transition density drives the luminosity-width relation, while the central density is an important second-order parameter. Within this context, the di ff erences in the B - V colour evolution along the Lira regime suggest that the progenitor of SN 2011iv had a higher central density than SN 2007on.

Title: Supporting the Second Victim.
Creator: Bryant, Shara
Abstract/Description: The purpose of this study was to examine “Second victim” phenomenon. Second victim phenomenon relates to healthcare providers’ response to an unanticipated adverse patient event, a medical error, or a patient related injury. The provider becomes a victim in the sense that the provider is traumatized by the event. The clinical question is: What physical and psychological effects do adverse event/medical errors have on second victims?

We applied Genotyping by Sequencing techniques to identify 1,220 single nucleotide polymorphic sites (SNPs) from 162 lionfish samples collected between 2013 and 2015 from two areas chronologically identified as the first and last invaded areas in US waters: the east coast of Florida and the Gulf of Mexico. We used population genomic analyses, including phylogenetic reconstruction, Bayesian clustering, genetic distances, Discriminant Analyses of Principal Components, and coalescence simulations for detection of outlier SNPs, to understand genetic trends relevant to the lionfish's long-term persistence. We found no significant differences in genetic structure or diversity between the two areas (F-ST p-values > 0.01, and t-test p-values > 0.05). In fact, our genomic analyses showed genetic homogeneity, with enough gene flow between the east coast of Florida and Gulf of Mexico to erase previous signals of genetic divergence detected between these areas, secondary spreading, and bottlenecks in the Gulf of Mexico. These findings suggest rapid genetic changes over space and time during the invasion, resulting in one panmictic population with no signs of divergence between areas due to local adaptation.

Show moreThe strongly correlated insulator Ca2RuO4 is considered as a paradigmatic realization of both spin-orbital physics and a band-Mott insulating phase, characterized by orbitally selective coexistence of a band and a Mott gap. We present a high resolution oxygen K-edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study of the antiferromagnetic Mott insulating state of Ca2RuO4. A set of low-energy (about 80 and 400 meV) and high-energy (about 1.3 and 2.2 eV) excitations are reported, which show strong incident light polarization dependence. Our results strongly support a spin-orbit coupled band-Mott scenario and explore in detail the nature of its exotic excitations. Guided by theoretical modeling, we interpret the low-energy excitations as a result of composite spin-orbital excitations. Their nature unveils the intricate interplay of crystal-field splitting and spin-orbit coupling in the band-Mott scenario. The high-energy excitations correspond to intra-atomic singlet-triplet transitions at an energy scale set by Hund's coupling. Our findings give a unifying picture of the spin and orbital excitations in the band-Mott insulator Ca2RuO4.

Show moreRecent work has suggested that variability in levels of neural activation may be related to behavioral and cognitive performance across a number of domains and may offer information that is not captured by more traditional measures that use the average level of brain activation. We examined the relationship between reading skill in school-aged children and neural activation variability during a functional MRI reading task after taking into account average levels of activity. The reading task involved matching printed and spoken words to pictures of items. Single trial activation estimates were used to calculate the mean and standard deviation of children's responses to print and speech stimuli; multiple regression analyses evaluated the relationship between reading skill and trial-by-trial activation variability. The reliability of observed findings from the discovery sample ( = 44; ages 8-11; 18 female) was then confirmed in an independent sample of children ( = 32; ages 8-11; 14 female). Across the two samples, reading skill was positively related to trial-by-trial variability in the activation response to print in the left inferior frontal gyrus pars triangularis. This relationship held even when accounting for mean levels of activation. This finding suggests that intrasubject variability in trial-by-trial fMRI activation responses to printed words accounts for individual differences in human reading ability that are not fully captured by traditional mean levels of brain activity. Furthermore, this positive relationship between trial-by-trial activation variability and reading skill may provide evidence that neural variability plays a beneficial role during early reading development. Recent work has suggested that neural activation variability, or moment-to-moment changes in the engagement of brain regions, is related to individual differences in behavioral and cognitive performance across multiple domains. However, differences in neural activation variability have not yet been evaluated in relation to reading skill. In the current study, we analyzed data from two independent groups of children who performed an fMRI task involving reading and listening to words. Across both samples, reading skill was positively related to trial-by-trial variability in activation to print stimuli in the left inferior frontal gyrus pars triangularis, even when accounting for the more conventional measure of mean levels of brain activity. This finding suggests that neural variability could be beneficial in developing readers.

Show moreRecent achievement research suggests that executive function (EF), a set of regulatory processes that control both thought and action necessary for goal-directed behavior, is related to typical and atypical reading performance. This project examines the relation of EF, as measured by its components, Inhibition, Updating Working Memory, and Shifting, with a hybrid model of reading disability (RD). Our sample included 420 children who participated in a broader intervention project when they were in KG-third grade (age M = 6.63 years, SD = 1.04 years, range = 4.79-10.40 years). At the time their EF was assessed, using a parent-report Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF), they had a mean age of 13.21 years (SD = 1.54 years; range = 10.47-16.63 years). The hybrid model of RD was operationalized as a composite consisting of four symptoms, and set so that any child could have any one, any two, any three, any four, or none of the symptoms included in the hybrid model. The four symptoms include low word reading achievement, unexpected low word reading achievement, poorer reading comprehension compared to listening comprehension, and dual-discrepancy response-to-intervention, requiring both low achievement and low growth in word reading. The results of our multilevel ordinal logistic regression analyses showed a significant relation between all three components of EF (Inhibition, Updating Working Memory, and Shifting) and the hybrid model of RD, and that the strength of EF's predictive power for RD classification was the highest when RD was modeled as having at least one or more symptoms. Importantly, the chances of being classified as having RD increased as EF performance worsened and decreased as EF performance improved. The question of whether any one EF component would emerge as a superior predictor was also examined and results showed that Inhibition, Updating Working Memory, and Shifting were equally valuable as predictors of the hybrid model of RD. In total, all EF components were significant and equally effective predictors of RD when RD was operationalized using the hybrid model.

Title: How Turbulence Enables Core-collapse Supernova Explosions.

Show moreAn important result in core-collapse supernova (CCSN) theory is that spherically symmetric, one-dimensional simulations routinely fail to explode, yet multidimensional simulations often explode. Numerical investigations suggest that turbulence eases the condition for explosion, but how it does it is not fully understood. We develop a turbulence model for neutrino-driven convection, and show that this turbulence model reduces the condition for explosions by about 30%, in concordance with multidimensional simulations. In addition, we identify which turbulent terms enable explosions. Contrary to prior suggestions, turbulent ram pressure is not the dominant factor in reducing the condition for explosion. Instead, there are many contributing factors, with ram pressure being only one of them, but the dominant factor is turbulent dissipation (TD). Primarily, TD provides extra heating, adding significant thermal pressure and reducing the condition for explosion. The source of this TD power is turbulent kinetic energy, which ultimately derives its energy from the higher potential of an unstable convective profile. Investigating a turbulence model in conjunction with an explosion condition enables insight that is difficult to glean from merely analyzing complex multidimensional simulations. An explosion condition presents a clear diagnostic to explain why stars explode, and the turbulence model allows us to explore how turbulence enables explosion. Although we find that TD is a significant contributor to successful supernova explosions, it is important to note that this work is to some extent qualitative. Therefore, we suggest ways to further verify and validate our predictions with multidimensional simulations.

Show moreIt has long been recognized that olfaction and emotion are linked. While chemosensory research using both human and rodent models have indicated a change in emotion can contribute to olfactory dysfunction, there are few studies addressing the contribution of olfaction to a modulation in emotion. In mice, olfactory deficits have been linked with heightened anxiety levels, suggesting that there could be an inverse relationship between olfaction and anxiety. Furthermore, increased anxiety is often co-morbid with psychiatric conditions such as attention disorders. Our study aimed to investigate the roles of olfaction in modulating anxiety. Voltage-gated potassium ion channel Kv1.3 knockout mice (Kv1.3-/-), which have heightened olfaction, and wild-type (WT) mice were examined for anxiety-like behaviors using marble burying (MB), light-dark box (LDB) and elevated-plus maze (EPM) tests. Because Kv1.3-/- mice have increased locomotor activity, inattentive and hyperactive behaviors were quantified for both genotypes. Kv1.3-/- mice showed increased anxiety levels compared to their WT counterparts and administration of methylphenidate (MPH) via oral gavage alleviated their increased anxiety. Object-based attention testing indicated young and older Kv1.3-/- mice had attention deficits and treatment with MPH also ameliorated this condition. Locomotor testing through use of a metabolic chamber indicated that Kv1.3-/- mice were not significantly hyperactive and MPH treatment failed to modify this activity. Our data suggest that heightened olfaction does not necessarily lead to decreased anxiety levels, and that Kv1.3-/- mice may have behaviors associated with inattentiveness.

Title: Evidence From Exafs For Different Ta/ti Site Occupancy In High Critical Current Density Nb3sn Superconductor Wires.

Show moreTo meet critical current density, J(c), targets for the Future Circular Collider (FCC), the planned replacement for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the high field performance of Nb3Sn must be improved, but champion J(c) values have remained static for the last 10 years. Making the A15 phase stoichiometric and enhancing the upper critical field H-c2 by Ti or Ta dopants are the standard strategies for enhancing high field performance but detailed recent studies show that even the best modern wires have broad composition ranges. To assess whether further improvement might be possible, we employed Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) to determine the lattice site location of dopants in modern high-performance Nb3Sn strands with J(c) values amongst the best so far achieved. Although Ti and Ta primarily occupy the Nb sites in the A15 structure, we also find significant Ta occupancy on the Sn site. These findings indicate that the best performing Ti-doped stand is strongly sub-stoichiometric in Sn and that antisite disorder likely explains its high average H-c2 behavior. These new results suggest an important role for dopant and antisite disorder in minimizing superconducting property distributions and maximizing high field J(c) properties.

Title: Topological Charge And Cooling Scales In Pure Su(2) Lattice Gauge Theory.

Abstract/Description: Using Monte Carlo simulations with overrelaxation, we have equilibrated lattices up to beta = 2.928, size 60(4), for pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory with the Wilson action. We calculate topological charges with the standard cooling method and find that they become more reliable with increasing beta values and lattice sizes. Continuum limit estimates of the topological susceptibility chi are obtained of which we favor chi(1/4)/T-c = 0.643(12), where T-c is the SU(2) deconfinement temperature....

Show moreThe response of a laminar separation bubble to synthetic jet forcing with various modulation schemes is investigated via direct numerical simulations. A simple sinusoidal waveform is considered as a reference case, and various amplitude modulation schemes, including the square-wave "burst" modulation, are employed in the simulations. The results indicate that burst modulation is less effective at reducing the length of the flow separation than the sinusoidal forcing primarily because burst modulation is associated with a broad spectrum of input frequencies that are higher than the target frequency for the flow control. It is found that such high-frequency forcing delays vortex roll-up and promotes vortex pairing and merging, which have an adverse effect on reducing the separation bubble length. A commonly used amplitude modulation scheme is also found to have reduced effectiveness due to its spectral content. A new amplitude modulation scheme which is tailored to impart more energy at the target frequency is proposed and shown to be more effective than the other modulation schemes. Experimental measurements confirm that modulation schemes can be preserved through the actuator and used to enhance the energy content at the target modulation frequency. The present study therefore suggests that the effectiveness of synthetic jet-based flow control could be improved by carefully designing the spectral content of the modulation scheme.

Our result unequivocally confirms the assumption of Sakhratov et al. [Phys. Rev.

In comparison with the results obtained in pulsed fields, a modified phase diagram is introduced defining the upper boundary of the first-order transition from the 3D spiral to the 3D polar phase.

The soft graviton theorem and decoupling of collinear gravitons at the leading power are manifest from the outset in the effective symmetries of the theory. At the next-to-leading power, certain simple structures of amplitudes, which are completely obscure in Feynman diagrams of the full theory, are also revealed, which greatly simplifies calculations. The effective Lagrangian is highly constrained by effectivelymultiple copies of diffeomorphism invariance that are inevitably present in gravity SCET due to mode separation, an essential ingredient of any SCET. Further explorations of effective theories of gravity with mode separation may shed light on Lagrangian-level understandings of some of the surprising properties of gravitational scattering amplitudes. A gravity SCET with an appropriate inclusion of Glauber modes may serve as a powerful tool for studying gravitational scattering in the Regge limit.

Show moreA search for the production of Higgs boson pairs in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13TeVis presented, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb(-1) collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Events with one Higgs boson decaying into two bottom quarks and the other decaying into two tau leptons are explored to investigate both resonant and nonresonant production mechanisms. The data are found to be consistent, within uncertainties, with the standard model background predictions. For resonant production, upper limits at the 95% confidence level are set on the production cross section for Higgs boson pairs as a function of the hypothesized resonance mass and are interpreted in the context of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. For nonresonant production, upper limits on the production cross section constrain the parameter space for anomalous Higgs boson couplings. The observed (expected) upper limit at 95% confidence level corresponds to about 30(25) times the prediction of the standard model. (C) 2018 The Author. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Abstract/Description: A search is performed for the pair production of spin-3/2 excited top quarks, each decaying to a top quark and a gluon. The search uses the data collected with the CMS detector from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). Events are selected by requiring an isolated muon or electron, an imbalance in the transverse momentum, and at least six jets of which exactly two must be compatible with originating from the...
Show moreA search is performed for the pair production of spin-3/2 excited top quarks, each decaying to a top quark and a gluon. The search uses the data collected with the CMS detector from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). Events are selected by requiring an isolated muon or electron, an imbalance in the transverse momentum, and at least six jets of which exactly two must be compatible with originating from the fragmentation of a bottom quark. No significant excess over the standard model predictions is found. A lower limit of 1.2 TeV is set at 95% confidence level on the mass of the spin-3/2 excited top quark in an extension of the Randall-Sundrum model, assuming a 100% branching fraction of its decay into a top quark and a gluon. These are the best limits to date in a search for excited top quarks and the first at 13 TeV. (c) 2018 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B. V.

Abstract/Description: Results are presented from a search for the pair production of third-generation squarks in proton-proton collision events with two-body decays to bottom or charm quarks and a neutralino, which produces a significant imbalance in the transverse momentum. The search is performed using a sample of proton-proton collision data at root s = 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb(-1). No statistically significant excess of events is...
Show moreResults are presented from a search for the pair production of third-generation squarks in proton-proton collision events with two-body decays to bottom or charm quarks and a neutralino, which produces a significant imbalance in the transverse momentum. The search is performed using a sample of proton-proton collision data at root s = 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb(-1). No statistically significant excess of events is observed beyond the expected contribution from standard model processes. Exclusion limits are set in the context of simplified models of bottom or top squark pair production. Models with bottom squark masses up to 1220 GeV are excluded at 95% confidence level for light neutralinos, and models with top squark masses of 510 GeV are excluded assuming that the mass splitting between the top squark and the neutralino is small.
