Abstract

To develop consensus-based recommendations for the management of adult and paediatric patients with NORSE/FIRES based on best evidence and experience.The Delphi methodology was followed. A facilitator group of 9 experts was established, who defined the scope, users and suggestions for recommendations. Following a review of the current literature, recommendation statements concerning diagnosis, treatment and research directions were generated which were then voted on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 9 (strongly agree) by a panel of 48 experts in the field. Consensus that a statement was appropriate was reached if the median score was greater or equal to 7, and inappropriate if the median score was less than or equal to 3. The analysis of evidence was mapped to the results of each statement included in the Delphi survey.Overall, 85 recommendation statements achieved consensus. The recommendations are divided into five sections: 1) disease characteristics, 2) diagnostic testing and sampling, 3) acute treatment, 4) treatment in the post-acute phase, and 5) research, registries and future directions in NORSE/FIRES. The detailed results and discussion of all 85 statements are outlined herein. A corresponding summary of findings and practical flowsheets are presented in a companion article.This detailed analysis offers insight into the supporting evidence and the current gaps in the literature that are associated with expert consensus statements related to NORSE/FIRES. The recommendations generated by this consensus can be used as a guide for the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of patients with NORSE/FIRES, and for planning of future research.

Abstract

To develop consensus-based recommendations for the management of adult and pediatric patients with NORSE/FIRES based on best available evidence and expert opinion.The Delphi methodology was followed. A facilitator group of 9 experts was established, who defined the scope, users and suggestions for recommendations. Following a review of the current literature, recommendation statements concerning diagnosis, treatment and research directions were generated which were then voted on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 9 (strongly agree) by a panel of 48 experts in the field. Consensus that a statement was appropriate was reached if the median score was greater than or equal to 7, and inappropriate if the median score was less than or equal to 3.Overall, 85 recommendation statements achieved consensus. The recommendations are divided into five sections: 1) disease characteristics, 2) diagnostic testing and sampling, 3) acute treatment, 4) treatment in the post-acute phase, and 5) research, registries and future directions in NORSE/FIRES. These are summarized in this article along with two practical clinical flowsheets: one for diagnosis and evaluation and one for acute treatment. A corresponding evidence-based analysis of all 85 recommendations alongside responses by the Delphi panel is presented in a companion article.The recommendations generated by this consensus can be used as a guide for the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of patients with NORSE/FIRES, and for planning of future research.

16. Role of Intermediate Metal and Oxide Layers in Change of Adhesion Properties of TiAl/Al2O3 Interface.

Author

Bakulin, A. V., Hocker, S., and Kulkova, S. E.

Abstract

A systematic study of the atomic and electronic structure of the γ-TiAl(111)/α-Al2O3(0001) interface with intermediate metal (Nb, Mo, Ni, Re) and oxide (Nb2O5, MoO3) layers has been performed by the projector augmented-wave method within density functional theory. The work of separation at the interfaces in dependence on the cleavage plane has been calculated. It is shown that a high adhesion energy obtained at the interface with the O-terminated α-Al2O3 is decreased at the γ-TiAl/Me interface but it remains enough high at the Me/α-Al2O3(0001)O interface due to a large ionic contribution to the chemical bonding. The influence of formation of intermediate impurity oxide layers on the adhesive properties of the alloy/oxide interface is discussed as well. The obtained results indicate that the fracture will occur inside the impurity oxide or its interface with the alloy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

To describe the demographics, etiologies, types of status epilepticus (SE), and outcomes in people with refractory and super-refractory SE from around the world, we prospectively collected cases of refractory SE (RSE) treated with continuous intravenous anesthetic drugs in an intensive care unit setting through online questionnaires using "active surveillance." We collected information about 776 cases of RSE in 50 countries over 4 years. Control of SE was achieved in 74% of the cases. Neurologic outcomes were poor in 41% of patients, and 24% died. Good outcome was associated with younger age and a history of epilepsy. Etiology strongly influenced the outcome. Patients from Asia were younger, more frequently presented with convulsive SE, and were more frequently affected by infectious etiologies when compared with patients from Europe and the Americas. Despite these differences, outcomes were similar in all countries. Demographics of patients with RSE in a global audit are similar to those in prior single center series, providing evidence of generalizability of those studies. Important differences exist among patients with RSE from different regions of the world, but these do not seem to significantly influence patient outcomes.

Abstract

The Fifth Neurocritical Care Research Network (NCRN) Conference held in Boca Raton, Florida, in September of 2018 was devoted to challenging the current status quo and examining the role of the Neurocritical Care Society (NCS) in driving the science and research of neurocritical care. The aim of this in-person meeting was to set the agenda for the NCS's Neurocritical Care Research Central, which is the overall research arm of the society. Prior to the meeting, all 103 participants received educational content (book and seminar) on the 'Blue Ocean Strategy®,' a concept from the business world which aims to identify undiscovered and uncontested market space, and to brainstorm innovative ideas and methods with which to address current challenges in neurocritical care research. Three five-member working groups met at least four times by teleconference prior to the in-person meeting to prepare answers to a set of questions using the Blue Ocean Strategy concept as a platform. At the Fifth NCRN Conference, these groups presented to a five-member jury and all attendees for open discussion. The jury then developed a set of recommendations for NCS to consider in order to move neurocritical care research forward. We have summarized the topics discussed at the conference and put forward recommendations for the future direction of the NCRN and neurocritical care research in general. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The investigation of hydrogen, boron and carbon sorption properties at the Σ5(310) symmetrical tilt grain boundary (GB) and (310) free surface (FS) in B2 Ti-based alloys was carried out by the plane-wave pseudopotential method within density functional theory. The most preferential positions for interstitial impurities at GB were determined. It was shown that impurities sorption energies at GB depend strongly on their local environment. The analysis of electronic properties allows us to establish the microscopic na-ture of chemical bonding of all considered impurities at GB. It was shown that H decreases more signifi-cantly the surface energies than the GB energy in contrast to B and C. This results in decreasing the Grif-fith work that indicates also the decrease of the strength of grain boundary. The segregation of H at the GB makes intergranular fracture much easier because the bonding between metal atoms, which are neigh-bors of H, is weakened. The segregation behavior of hydrogen confirms it as an embrittler for B2 Ti-based alloys. At the same time boron and carbon segregation contrast to hydrogen increase the GB cohesion.

Abstract

A search for a narrow Higgs boson resonance in the diphoton mass spectrum is presented based on data corresponding to 10fb -1 of integrated luminosity collected by the CDF experiment from proton-antiproton collisions at s=1.96TeV. To increase the sensitivity of the search, we employ a multivariate discriminant technique for the first time in this channel at CDF. No evidence of signal is observed, and upper limits are set on the cross section times branching ratio of the resonant state as a function of the Higgs boson mass. The limits are interpreted in the context of the standard model with an expected (observed) limit on the cross section times branching ratio of 9.9 (17.0) times the standard model prediction at the 95% credibility level for a Higgs boson mass of 125GeV/c 2. Moreover, a Higgs boson with suppressed couplings to fermions is excluded for masses below 114GeV/c 2 at the 95% credibility level. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract

We report a measurement of the bottom-strange meson mixing phase βs using the time evolution of Bs0→J/ψ(→μ+μ-)ϕ(→K+K-) decays in which the quark-flavor content of the bottom-strange meson is identified at production. This measurement uses the full data set of proton-antiproton collisions at s=1.96 TeV collected by the Collider Detector experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron, corresponding to 9.6 fb-1 of integrated luminosity. We report confidence regions in the two-dimensional space of βs and the Bs0 decay-width difference ΔΓs and measure βs∈[-π/2,-1.51]∪[-0.06,0.30]∪[1.26,π/2] at the 68% confidence level, in agreement with the standard model expectation. Assuming the standard model value of βs, we also determine ΔΓs=0.068±0.026(stat)±0.009(syst) ps-1 and the mean Bs0 lifetime τs=1.528±0.019(stat)±0.009(syst) ps, which are consistent and competitive with determinations by other experiments., This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy and National Science Foundation; the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare; the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan; the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada; the National Science Council of the Republic of China; the Swiss National Science Foundation; the A.

Abstract

The atomic and electronic structure of the interfaces between metals with body-centered cubic (bcc) and face-centered cubic (fcc) structures and zirconium dioxide is studied systematically using the ab initio methods of the electron density functional theory (DFT). It is shown that high adhesion properties can be attained at the nonstoichiometric polar Me(001)/ZrO(001) interface with bcc metals from the middle of the 4d-5d periods (Mo, Ta, W, and Nb). Charge transfer from the metal to the oxide substrate ensures the strong ionic chemical bond on the metal-ceramic interfaces. The structural and electronic factors responsible for lowering of adhesion at differently oriented interfaces are analyzed. It is shown that a decrease of adhesion at the (110) nonpolar stoichiometric interface is due to an increase in the interfacial spacing as well as a decrease in the number of metal-oxygen bonds. The effect of doping with oxides (CaO, MgO, and YO) stabilizing zirconium dioxide at low temperatures on the adhesion energy at the Me(001)/ZrO(001) interface is analyzed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

43. Archean Synvolcanic Intrusions and Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide at the Genex Mine, Kamiskotia Area, Timmins, Ontario.

Abstract

U-Pb geochronology and detailed field mapping has resulted in a new subdivision of the Kamiskotia Volcanic Complex into Lower and Upper Kamiskotia strata with a 3.5-m.y. volcanic hiatus between the two. The hiatus is interpreted as an unconformity, in common with newly recognized unconformities throughout the green-stone belt. The Genex, and other volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits in the area, occur within the Upper Kamiskotia strata. Volcanic facies mapping and reconstruction indicate that the Genex VMS deposit formed within a volcanic graben where synvolcanic mafic and intermediate sills and dikes, with peperitic and locally pillowed contacts, define a proximal volcanic vent area. Sulfide mineralization at Genex occurs in three zones, the first hosted in pillow breccia and hyaloclastite, the second occurring at the contact between felsic tuff and an intermediate intrusion, and the third hosted within the intermediate intrusion. The mineralization represents subsea-floor replacement sulfides localized within zones of higher primary permeability. Although the synvolcanic mafic intrusions are not directly related to the Genex VMS mineralization they are indicative of a high heat-flow thermal regime. The synvolcanic faults that controlled the emplacement of synvolcanic dikes also provided conduits for the hydrothermal fluids responsible for the mineralization and alteration at Genex. This high-level mafic dike and sill complex was previously correlated with the upper zone of the Kamiskotia Gabbroic Complex but is now interpreted to be younger and correlative with the Upper Kamiskotia Volcanic Complex. New geochronological data also indicate that the Kamiskotia Gabbroic Complex is older than the VMS-hosting Upper Kamiskotia strata and was emplaced into the Lower Kamiskotia Volcanic Complex. This negates the possibility, of a genetic relationship between the Genex and other Kamiskotia VMS deposits within the Kamiskotia Gabbroic Complex. The small size of the synvolcanic intrusions indicates that they were also not the heat source for the Genex hydrothermal alteration system. However, their spatial coincidence suggests that this part of the Kamiskotia Volcanic Complex was the focus of long-lived intrusive activity and high heat flow that defined a thermal corridor encompassing the VMS deposits in the Kamiskotia Volcanic Complex.

44. Recurrent strokes in two patients with poems syndrome and castleman's disease.

Author

Abstract

POEMS syndrome is a disorder characterized by polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal gammopathy, and skin changes. Castleman's disease is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder that can be present in patients with POEMS syndrome. Previous case reports have documented the association between POEMS syndrome and arterial and venous thromboses of the coronary and lower limb arteries. However, only 3 patients have ever been described with POEMS syndrome, Castleman's disease, and stroke. Two additional patients with this combination of disorders are reported herein. We suspect that the strokes are a result of a possible intracranial vasculopathic process.Copyright © 2007 by Elsevier Inc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Al diffusion in decagonal Al–Ni–Co and Al–Cu–Co quasicrystals is investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. Results obtained with newly developed embedded-atom method potentials are compared with our previous work with effective pair potentials. With both types of potential, strong aluminium diffusion is observed above two-thirds of the melting temperature, and the general behaviours of the system are quite similar. The diffusion constant is measured as a function of temperature and pressure, and the activation enthalpies and activation volumes are determined from the resulting Arrhenius plot. For a number of important diffusion processes, the energy barriers are determined with molecular statics simulations. The qualitative behaviour of the dynamics is also confirmed by ab-initio simulations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The atomic dynamics of decagonal Al-Ni-Co and Al-Cu-Co quasicrystals is investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. Depending on the local environments, the mobility of the atoms varies greatly from site to site. Above two thirds of the melting temperature, a large fraction of the aluminium atoms become so mobile, that their diffusion can be measured directly in the simulation. As aluminium diffusion is hard to access experimentally, molecular dynamics simulations therefore provide a unique way to study aluminium diffusion in these complex systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: As far as we know, no previous study has determined the relationship between volume and outcomes for shoulder arthroplasty. We hypothesized that surgeons and hospitals with higher caseloads of total shoulder arthroplasties and hemiarthroplasties have better outcomes as measured by decreased mortality rate, shorter length of stay in the hospital, reduced postoperative complications, and routine disposition of patients on discharge.Methods: Data on patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty were extracted from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample databases for the years 1988 through 2000. Logistic regression with generalized estimating equations and multiple linear regression models were used to estimate the adjusted association between surgeon and hospital volume and outcomes for total shoulder arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty after adjusting for comorbidity, age, race, household income, and sex.Results: The mortality rates for patients who had a total shoulder arthroplasty performed by surgeons who did fewer than two procedures per year (0.36%) or who did between two and fewer than four procedures per year (0.32%) were higher than those for patients who had a total shoulder arthroplasty performed by surgeons who did four procedures or more per year (0.20%). The risk-adjusted rate of postoperative complications after hemiarthroplasty was significantly higher for patients managed by surgeons who performed fewer than two procedures per year (1.68%) than for those managed by surgeons with a volume of five procedures or more per year (0.97%). The possibility of postoperative complications when total shoulder arthroplasty was performed in hospitals with a volume of fewer than five procedures (1.44%) or in those with a volume of five to ten procedures per year (1.45%) was significantly higher than that in hospitals where ten procedures or more were performed every year (0.64%). The mean lengths of stay in the hospital after total shoulder arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty were significantly longer when the operations were performed by surgeons who did fewer than two procedures per year or when they were done in hospitals with a volume of fewer than five procedures per year or with a volume of five to fewer than ten procedures per year than when they were done in hospitals or by surgeons in the highest volume category (p < 0.001).Conclusions: Patients who have a total shoulder arthroplasty or hemiarthroplasty performed by a high-volume surgeon or in a high-volume hospital are more likely to have a better outcome.Level Of Evidence: Therapeutic study, Level III-2 (retrospective cohort study).

48. Resolution of paroxysmal hemicrania after resection of intracranial meningioma.

Author

Dafer RM, Hocker S, Kumar R, McGee J, and Jay WM

Abstract

Paroxysmal hemicrania is a trigeminal autonomic cephalalgia first described in 1976, characterized by episodic attacks of excruciating unilateral periorbital and temporal stabbing, pulsatile, craw-like, or boring headaches lasting 2 - 30 minutes, accompanied by autonomic features, and alleviated by indomethacin. Paroxysmal hemicrania is divided into an episodic or chronic form, depending on the duration and frequency of the attacks. We describe a case of paroxysmal hemicrania in a patient with a contralateral anterior clinoid meningioma, which resolved after tumor resection. Most cases of autonomic cephalgias are primary headaches and not caused by underlying intracranial structural lesions. Based on our patient and a literature review of secondary causes of trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias, we recommend that all patients with trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias including paroxysmal hemicrania undergo neuroimaging studies. The preferred neuro-radiologic procedure should be a cranial MRI to exclude underlying structural intracranial lesions, particularly in the sellar and parasellar regions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Abstract: The atomic and electronic structures of Me/ZrO2(001) interfaces, where Me is Ni, Fe or a Ni–Fe alloy, are investigated by the plane wave pseudopotential method within density-functional theory. The work of separation of metal films from oxide substrate for the O- and Zr-terminated Me/ZrO2(001) interfaces is calculated. High adhesion at both Me/(ZrO2)O and Me/(ZrO2)Zr interfaces is found. The effect of oxygen vacancies on the adhesion at the metal–ceramic interfaces is also investigated. It is shown that Ni(Fe)–O interaction at the O-terminated interface weakens in the presence of interfacial oxygen vacancies. At interfaces with Ni–Fe alloys the adhesion depends strongly on the composition of the interfacial layers and their magnetic properties. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
