Communication About End Of Life For Patients Living With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Scoping Review Of The Empirical Evidence, Shelagh K. Genuis, Westerly Luth, Sandra Campbell, Tania M. Bubela, Wendy S. Johnston

Office of the Provost

Background: Communication about end of life, including advance care planning, life-sustaining therapies, palliative care, and end-of-life options, is critical for the clinical management of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients. The empirical evidence base for this communication has not been systematically examined.
Objective: To support evidence-based communication guidance by (1) analyzing the scope and nature of research on health communication about end of life for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; and (2) summarizing resultant recommendations.
Methods: A scoping review of empirical literature was conducted following recommended practices. Fifteen health-related and three legal databases were searched; 296 articles were screened for inclusion/exclusion criteria; and quantitative …

Quasi 3d Multi-Stage Turbomachinery Pre-Optimizer, Chad Eric Burdyshaw

Theses and Dissertations

A pre-optimizer has been developed which modifies existing turbomachinery blades to create new geometries with improved selected aerodynamic coefficients calculated using a linear panel method. These blade rows can then be further refined using a Navier-Stokes method for evaluation. This pre-optimizer was developed in hopes of reducing the overall CPU time required for optimization when using only Navier-Stokes evaluations. The primary method chosen to effect this optimization is a parallel evolutionary algorithm. Variations of this method have been analyzed and compared for convergence and degree of improvement. Test cases involved both single and multiple row turbomachinery. For each case, both …

A Comparison Of Three Rapid Evaluation Procedures For Pine Savanna Wetlands, Cynthia Joan Henderson

Theses and Dissertations

Inception of the Clean Water Act in 1972 resulted in regulation of activities in wetlands through Section 404. Regulatory agencies like the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources (MDMR) have tried to find methods to rapidly evaluate wetlands. This study compares three rapid evaluation methods, Hydrogeomorphic Approach (HGM), Wetlands Rapid Assessment Procedure (WRAP), and Wetland Evaluation System (WES), based on their scoring of a group of reference and mitigation wetland sites. Repeatability was studied by scoring a group of sites twice. The non-parametric Spearman?s correlation was used to compare the three methods. In this study, HGM was most repeatable followed by …

Hyper-Polynomial Hierarchies And The Polynomial Jump, Stephen Fenner, Steven Homer, Randall J. Pruim, Marcus Schaefer

University Faculty Publications and Creative Works

Assuming that the polynomial hierarchy (PH) does not collapse, we show the existence of ascending sequences of ptime Turing degrees of length ω1/CK in PSPACE such that successors are polynomial jumps of their predecessors. Moreover these ptime degrees are all uniformly hard for PH. This is analogous to the hyperarithmetic hierarchy, which is defined similarly but with the (computable) Turing degrees. The lack of uniform least upper bounds for ascending sequences of ptime degrees causes the limit levels of our hyper-polynomial hierarchy to be inherently non-canonical. This problem is investigated in depth, and various possible structures for hyper-polynomial hierarchies are …

Consumer-Producer Interaction: A Strategic Analysis Of The Market For Customized Products , Benedict G.C. Dellaert , Niladri B. Syam

Review of Marketing Science Working Papers

This paper focuses on the process by which consumers and producers interact to create better value for consumers. This happens in many situations but is arguably most prominent in mass-customization, an area that has recently gained a lot of popularity among manufacturers (Business Week, March 20, 2000). In terms of communications, such interaction entails a shift from the one-way communication (usually from seller to buyer) of traditional markets, to a two-way communication. Specifically, potential producers need to elicit preference (and other) information from consumers. They then have to provide a product that correctly incorporates such information. This brings up many …
