1. Characteristics and Outcomes of Cardiac Arrests Reported in the National Collegiate Emergency Medical Services Foundation Data Registry

Author

Nicholas M. G. Friedman, George J. Koenig, Joshua A. Marks, Michael T. Hilton, and Joshua E. Glick

Abstract

Objective: The objective of this study was to identify out-of-hospital cardiac arrest characteristics for patients treated by collegiate-based emergency medical services (CBEMS) organizations. Participants: CBEMS organizations provided data via the National Collegiate EMS Foundation Cardiac Arrest Data Registry. Methods: CBEMS organization details, patient demographics, cardiac arrest characteristics and treatments, and prehospital outcomes for cases spanning October 2007 to May 2020 were analyzed with descriptive statistics. Results: There were 65 OHCA entries. The majority were for male patients (82%) and a notable number of cases occurred in patients 45 years of age or younger (41%). Cases were frequently witnessed (71%) with high rates of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (57%) and defibrillation (29%) prior to EMS arrival. Almost half of the patients (48%) had achieved return of spontaneous circulation until care was transferred to a provider of equal/higher level. Conclusions: CBEMS organizations may be well situated to respond rapidly to on-campus OHCAs.

Abstract

New GALEX observations have detected significant FUV (1530 Angstroms) and NUV (2310 Angstroms) emission from stellar substructures within the tidal tails of four ongoing galaxy mergers. The UV-bright regions are optically faint and are coincident with HI density enhancements. FUV emission is detected at any location where the HI surface density exceeds ~2 M_sun pc^{-2}, and is often detected in the absence of visible wavelength emission. UV luminosities of the brighter regions of the tidal tails imply masses of 10^6 M_sun to ~10^9 M_sun in young stars in the tails, and HI luminosities imply similar HI masses. UV-optical colors of the tidal tails indicate stellar populations as young as a few Myr, and in all cases ages < 400Myr. Most of the young stars in the tails formed in single bursts rather than resulting from continuous star formation, and they formed *in situ* as the tails evolved. Star formation appears to be older near the parent galaxies and younger at increasing distances from the parent galaxy. This could be because the star formation occurs progressively along the tails, or because the star formation has been inhibited near the galaxy/tail interface. The youngest stellar concentrations, usually near the ends of long tidal tails, have masses comparable to confirmed tidal dwarf galaxies and may be newly forming galaxies undergoing their first burst of star formation., This paper will be published as part of the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Astrophysical Journal Letters Special Issue.

Abstract

This work presents the main ultraviolet (UV) and far-infrared (FIR) properties of two samples of nearby galaxies selected from the GALEX ($\lambda = 2315$\AA, hereafter NUV) and IRAS ($\lambda = 60\mu$m) surveys respectively. They are built in order to get detection at both wavelengths for most of the galaxies. Star formation rate (SFR) estimators based on the UV and FIR emissions are compared. Systematic differences are found between the SFR estimators for individual galaxies based on the NUV fluxes corrected for dust attenuation and on the total IR luminosity. A combined estimator based on NUV and IR luminosities seems to be the best proxy over the whole range of values of SFR. Although both samples present similar average values of the birthrate parameter b, their star-formation-related properties are substantially different: NUV-selected galaxies tend to show larger values of $b$ for lower masses, SFRs and dust attenuations, supporting previous scenarios for the star formation history (SFH). Conversely, about 20% of the FIR-selected galaxies show high values of $b$, SFR and NUV attenuation. These galaxies, most of them being LIRGs and ULIRGs, break down the downsizing picture for the SFH, however their relative contribution per unit volume is small in the local Universe. Finally, the cosmic SFR density of the local Universe is estimated in a consistent way from the NUV and IR luminosities., Comment: 43 pages, 13 figures, accepted for publication in Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series

Abstract

We present the first measurement of the galaxy luminosity function (LF) at 1500 Å in the range 0.2=alpha>=-1.65, with a marginally significant hint of increase at higher z. (3) We split the sample in three rest-frame (B-I) intervals, providing an approximate spectral type classification: Sb-Sd, Sd-Irr, and unobscured starbursts. We find that the bluest class evolves less strongly in luminosity than the two other classes. On the other hand, their number density increases sharply with z (~15% in the local universe to ~55% at z~1), while that of the reddest classes decreases.

Abstract

In a companion paper (Arnouts et al. 2004) we presented new measurements of the galaxy luminosity function at 1500 Angstroms out to z~1 using GALEX-VVDS observations (1039 galaxies with NUV0.2) and at higher z using existing data sets. In this paper we use the same sample to study evolution of the FUV luminosity density. We detect evolution consistent with a (1+z)^{2.5+/-0.7} rise to z~1 and (1+z)^{0.5+/-0.4} for z>1. The luminosity density from the most UV-luminous galaxies (UVLG) is undergoing dramatic evolution (x30) between 025%) of the total FUV luminosity density at z, Comment: This paper will be published as part of the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Astrophysical Journal Letters Special Issue.

Abstract

PURPOSE OF REVIEWProducts of infection, ischemia, and injury stimulate the innate immune system to release proinflammatory cytokines, which act locally to activate specific cellular immune responses and initiate recovery. In pathological cases, however, cytokines are released systemically, resulting in progressive tissue injury, hypotension, organ dysfunction, or death. Observations that animals frequently succumb to systemic inflammation long after the peak activity of tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-1β suggest that later-acting, downstream inflammatory factors can mediate the pathological sequelae of lethal systemic inflammation. Here, the authors review evidence that the chromosomal protein high mobility group box 1 is a late-acting, downstream mediator of pathological inflammation.RECENT FINDINGSHigh mobility group box 1 recently has been identified as a proinflammatory cytokine with significantly delayed release kinetics, as compared with tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-1β, in animal models of lethal systemic inflammation induced by endotoxin or peritonitis. Administration of exogenous high mobility group box 1 induces acute lung injury, intestinal barrier dysfunction, and lethal systemic inflammatory responses. Its functional cytokine domain has been mapped to the DNA-binding B box, providing structural information that may be useful in the rational design of new therapeutics that target the protein's activity.SUMMARYSeveral high mobility group box 1 antagonists have recently been identified. These inhibitors may prove effective in a significantly wider therapeutic window than has been available for previous anti-cytokine strategies, because high mobility group box 1 appears in serum with a significantly delayed kinetics as compared with other cytokines.

8. Automated Synthesis of Skew-Based Clock Distribution Networks

Author

Luis Neves, José and G. Friedman, Eby

Abstract

In this paper a top-down methodology is presented for synthesizing clock distribution networks based on application-dependent localized clock skew. The methodology is divided into four phases: 1) determination of an optimal clock skew schedule for improving circuit performance and reliability; 2) design of the topology of the clock tree based on the circuit hierarchy and minimum clock path delays; 3) design of circuit structures to implement the delay values associated with the branches of the clock tree; and 4) design of the geometric layout of the clock distribution network. Algorithms to determine an optimal clock skew schedule, the optimal clock delay to each register, the network topology, and the buffer circuit dimensions are presented.
