Abstract

The protoclusters in the epoch of reionization, traced by galaxy overdensity regions, are ideal laboratories for studying the process of stellar assembly and cosmic reionization. We present the spectroscopic confirmation of the core of the most distant protocluster at z = 7.88, A2744-z7p9OD, with the James Webb Space Telescope NIRSpec integral field unit spectroscopy. The core region includes as many as four galaxies detected in [O iii ] 4960 and 5008 Å in a small area of ∼3″ × 3″, corresponding to ∼11 × 11 kpc, after the lensing magnification correction. Three member galaxies are also tentatively detected in dust continuum in Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Band 6, which is consistent with their red ultraviolet continuum slopes, β ∼ −1.3. The member galaxies have stellar masses in the range of log( M _* / M _⊙ ) ∼7.6–9.2 and star formation rates of ∼3–50 M _⊙ yr ^−1 , showing a diversity in their properties. FirstLight cosmological simulations reproduce the physical properties of the member galaxies including the stellar mass, [O iii ] luminosity, and dust-to-stellar mass ratio, and predict that the member galaxies are on the verge of merging in a few to several tens of Myr to become a large galaxy with M _* ∼ 6 × 10 ^9 M _⊙ . The presence of a multiple merger and evolved galaxies in the core region of A2744-z7p9OD indicates that environmental effects are already at work 650 Myr after the Big Bang.

Abstract

Primary abdominal hernia is a prevalent condition that weighs heavily on human and financial health-care resources (e.g., 1.12% of the total budget of our hospital in 2008). Tension-free hernioplasty is the standard repair procedure, but the anesthetic technique varies, including local anesthesia with sedation (Lsed), regional (Reg), and general (Gen) anesthesia. As the cost-outcome relation of different anesthetic options has never been examined in our health district, we proposed to identify the most cost-effective anesthetic technique out of three options for primary abdominal hernia repair in terms of clinical outcome and health-care economics in this retrospective review.The study sample of 400 patients with primary abdominal hernia in 2008 underwent tension-free hernioplasty using one of three anesthetic techniques: 74 Lsed, 283 Reg, and 43 Gen. The comparability of outcomes was ensured by dividing the sample into homogeneous groups according to the American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification (ASA 1 and 2) and adjusting for technical complexity, risk factors, and anatomic location.The clinical outcome of hernioplasty with Lsed was significantly better in terms of shorter hospital stay, lower early- and intermediate-term complication rate, and shorter time to recovery after discharge. The short-term recurrence rate did not differ between groups. The mean cost per hernioplasty procedure waseuro3,270.37 (Lsed),euro4,740.37 (Reg), andeuro7,318.44 (Gen).The cost-effectiveness and incremental cost per patient showed the advantage of hernioplasty with Lsed versus Reg (euro794.59) and Lsed versus Gen (euro704.01), respectively.
