Intravenous Infusion Of The Β(3)-Adrenergic Receptor Antagonist Apd418 Improves Left Ventricular Systolic Function In Dogs With Systolic Heart Failure: Β(3)-Adrenergic Receptor Antagonist In Heart Failure, Hani N. Sabbah, Kefei Zhang, Ramesh C. Gupta, Jiang Xu, Vinita Singh-Gupta, Michael Ma, Kathe Stauber, Nathalie Nguyen, John Adams

Cardiology Articles

BACKGROUND: Unlike β(1)- and β(2)-adrenergic receptors (ARs), β(3)-AR stimulation inhibits cardiac contractility and relaxation. In the failing left ventricular (LV) myocardium, β(3)-ARs are upregulated, and can be maladaptive in the setting of decompensation by contributing to LV dysfunction. This study examined the effects of intravenous (i.v.) infusions of the β(3)-AR antagonist APD418 on cardiovascular function and safety in dogs with systolic heart failure (HF).

METHODS AND RESULTS: Three separate studies were performed in 21 dogs with coronary microembolization-induced HF (LV ejection fraction [LVEF] of approximately 35%). Studies 1 and 2 (n = 7 dogs each) were APD418 dose escalation studies …

Study On Underwater Navigation For Underwater Track Vehicle, Dae-Hyeong Ji, Hyeung-Sik Choi, Sang-Ki Jeong, Hyun-Joon Cho, Ji-Hyeong Lee, Wen-Hsiang Hsieh

Journal of Marine Science and Technology–Taiwan

In this study, an underwater navigation algorithm was developed to apply a navigation system to an underwater track vehicle (UTV). Generally, a Doppler velocity log (DVL) is used to obtain the velocity information of underwater vehicles. However, a DVL cannot be used in a UTV owing to vehicle vibration and limited sensing distance. Hence, dead reckoning navigation is typically used, which results in severe errors in altitude and position values over long periods of operation. To address these problems, in this study, we developed a new underwater navigation system for a UTV using navigation sensors comprising an inertial navigation system, …

Exploration Of Local Microorganisms From Rumen And Their Potential To Make Silage From Agricultural Waste, Purnamasari Listya, Purnomo Hari, Setyawan Hidayat Bambang

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development

Agricultural wastes are very diverse in type and have low nutrient values, especially in lignin and cellulose, which are difficult to digest. One way of overcoming this problem is by biological treatment using microorganisms, also known as silage. The availability of bio-activators that are both cost-efficient and easy to make further suggests that using local microorganisms may be an effective possible solution. This study focused on processing food crop waste (corn leaves) into silage using local microorganisms as the bio-activators. Research took place in the Agrotechnology Laboratory, University of Jember. The experimental design was completely randomized with four treatments: Treatment …

The Long Shadow Of Jacobson V. Massachusetts: Public Health, Fundamental Rights, And The Courts, Daniel Farber

San Diego Law Review

The COVID-19 pandemic struck the United States in early 2020. The coronavirus prompted public health mandates without precedent for at least a century. Some states almost entirely locked down. These measures inevitably impinged on activities that the Constitution would normally protect. In confronting these cases, many courts have turned to a 1905 Supreme Court case decision, Jacobson v. Massachusetts, often considered the leading case in public health law. There is little agreement, however, about how that decision fits into the current framework of constitutional law. As a result, courts have differed widely in the degree of deference they give …

Covid-19 And Preventing Harm To Vulnerable Children, Jessica K. Heldman, Margaret A. Dalton, Robert C. Fellmeth

San Diego Law Review

Although COVID-19 mercifully seems to affect children less severely than adults, children are far from immune from the impacts of the virus. Public health orders closing schools and businesses, cancelling events, and keeping children at home have been disruptive and distressing to many children and families. But for children who rely on government entities for protection, care, custody, and services, the effects of the public health orders can be devastating. COVID-19 and the response to it has serious implications for the safety, well-being, and development of these vulnerable children—those within the child welfare, juvenile justice, and special education systems.

Crisis Standards Of Care And State Liability Shields, Valerie Gutmann Koch

San Diego Law Review

The COVID-19 pandemic has overwhelmed many U.S. systems—including the already-strained medical system—intended to protect and care for its citizens. In the United States, New York became the first epicenter of the pandemic, accounting for approximately five percent of global COVID-19 cases by March 2020. Hospitals, health care providers, and policymakers soon recognized that, in New York and beyond, they faced a bleak reality that—if the spread of the virus could not be controlled—there would soon not be enough ventilators for all patients who needed them, despite hospitals practicing “surge capacity” to reduce the need for ventilators by canceling or postponing …

The Covid Cases: A Preliminary Assessment Of Judicial Review Of Public Health Powers During A Partisan And Polarized Pandemic, Wendy E. Parmet

San Diego Law Review

In response to the very real possibility that there will be insufficient resources to properly respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, states have been developing crisis standard of care plans, which may authorize the prioritization of patients for scarce resources based on changing circumstances and increased demands. Due to the dearth of necessary resources and trained professionals during a public health emergency, the standard of care that clinicians may be able to provide during the COVID-19 pandemic may, by necessity, depart significantly from standard nonemergency medical practice. Adhering to crisis standards of care may expose health care providers and entities to …

Prisons And Pandemics, Camila Strassle, Benjamin E. Berkman

San Diego Law Review

This Article focuses on how to balance public health, public safety, and incarcerated people’s legal rights when implementing a program for early release from confinement. Ethical, epidemiological, and legal arguments all point to a need for an immediate reduction in the incarcerated population. However, this leaves open several points of reasonable disagreement about how to manage early release. These include how to set priorities for processing and releasing individuals across the country.
