Implementation Of The ‘Take Stock’ Hot Debrief Tool In The Ed: A Quality Improvement Project, Max Sugarman, Blair Graham, Sarah Langston, Pam Nelmes, John Matthews Jan 2021

Implementation Of The ‘Take Stock’ Hot Debrief Tool In The Ed: A Quality Improvement Project, Max Sugarman, Blair Graham, Sarah Langston, Pam Nelmes, John Matthews

Peninsula Medical School

Hot debriefing (HoD) describes a structured team-based discussion which may be initiated following a significant event. Benefits may include improved teamwork, staff well-being and identification of learning opportunities. Existing literature indicates that while staff value HoD following significant events, it is infrequently undertaken in practice. Internationally, several frameworks for HoD have been developed, although none are widely adopted for use in the ED. A quality improvement project was conducted to introduce HoD into a single UK ED in North West England, between January and March 2019. Following stakeholder consultation, the 9-item ‘TAKE STOCK’ tool was developed. Implementation of the tool …

Peninsula Medical School

BackgroundInpatients experiencing homelessness are often discharged to unstable accommodation or the street, which may increase the risk of readmission.MethodsWe conducted a cohort study of 2772 homeless patients discharged after an emergency admission at 78 hospitals across England between November 2013 and November 2016. For each individual, we selected a housed patient who lived in a socioeconomically deprived area, matched on age, sex, hospital, and year of discharge. Counts of emergency readmissions, planned readmissions, and Accident and Emergency (A&E) visits post-discharge were derived from national hospital databases, with a median of 2.8 years of follow-up. We estimated the cumulative incidence of …

The Remote Assessment Of Parkinsonism Supporting The Ongoing Development Of Interventions In Gaucher Disease, Abigail Louise Higgins, Marco Toffoli, Stephen Mullin, Chiao Yin Lee, Sofia Koletsi, Micol Avenali, Fabio Blandini, Anthony H.V. Schapira

Peninsula Medical School

Mutations in GBA which are causative of Gaucher disease in their biallelic form, are the most common genetic risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD). The diagnosis of PD relies upon clinically defined motor features which appear after irreversible neurodegeneration. Prodromal symptoms of PD may provide a means to predict latent pathology, years before the onset of motor features. Previous work has reported prodromal features of PD in GBA mutation carriers, however this has been insufficiently sensitive to identify those that will develop PD. The Remote Assessment of Parkinsonism Supporting Ongoing Development of Interventions in Gaucher Disease (RAPSODI GD) study assesses …

C4-Face-Magic Toroidal Labelings On CM × CN, Stephen J. Curran, Richard M. Low, Stephen C. Locke Jan 2021

C4-Face-Magic Toroidal Labelings On CM × CN, Stephen J. Curran, Richard M. Low, Stephen C. Locke

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

For a graph G = (V, E) naturally embedded in the torus, let F(G) denote the set of faces of G. Then, G is called a Cn-face-magic toroidal graph if there exists a bijection f : V (G) → {1, 2, . . ., |V (G)|} such that for every F ∈ F(G) with F ∼= Cn, the sum of all the vertex labels along Cn is a constant S. Let xv = f(v) for all v ∈ V (G). We call {xv : v ∈ V (G)} a Cn-face-magic toroidal labeling on G. We show that, for all m, …

List-Antimagic Labeling Of Vertex-Weighted Graphs, Zhanar Berikkyzy, Axel Brandt, Sogol Jahanbekam, Victor Larsen, Danny Rorabaugh Jan 2021

List-Antimagic Labeling Of Vertex-Weighted Graphs, Zhanar Berikkyzy, Axel Brandt, Sogol Jahanbekam, Victor Larsen, Danny Rorabaugh

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

A graph G is weighted-k-list-antimagic if for any vertex weighting →: V (G) → R and any list assignment L: E(G) → 2R with jL(e)j ≤ jE(G)j + k there exists an edge labeling f such that f(e) 2 L(e) for all e 2 E(G), labels of edges are pairwise distinct, and the sum of the labels on edges incident to a vertex plus the weight of that vertex is distinct from the sum at every other vertex. In this paper we prove that every graph on n vertices having no K1 or K2 component is weighted-4n 3 -list-antimagic.

The Integer-Antimagic Spectra Of Hamiltonian Graphs, Ugur Odabasi, Dan Roberts, Richard M. Low

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

Let A be a nontrivial abelian group. A connected simple graph G = (V, E) is A-antimagic, if there exists an edge labeling f: E(G) → A\{0A} such that the induced vertex labeling f+(v) = Σ{u,v} ∈ E(G) f({u,v}) is a one-to-one map. The integer-antimagic spectrum of a graph G is the set IAM(G) = {k: G is Zk-antimagic and k ≥ 2}. In this paper, we determine the integer-antimagic spectra for all Hamiltonian graphs.

Bayesspsurv: An R Package To Estimate Bayesian (Spatial) Split-Population Survival Models, Brandon Bolte, Nicolás Schmidt, Sergio Béjar, Nguyen Huynh, Bumba Mukherjee Jan 2021

Bayesspsurv: An R Package To Estimate Bayesian (Spatial) Split-Population Survival Models, Brandon Bolte, Nicolás Schmidt, Sergio Béjar, Nguyen Huynh, Bumba Mukherjee

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

Survival data often include a fraction of units that are susceptible to an event of interest as well as a fraction of “immune” units. In many applications, spatial clustering in unobserved risk factors across nearby units can also affect their survival rates and odds of becoming immune. To address these methodological challenges, this article introduces our BayesSPsurv R-package, which fits parametric Bayesian Spatial split-population survival (cure) models that can account for spatial autocorrelation in both subpopulations of the user 's time-to-event data. Spatial autocorrelation is modeled with spatially weighted frailties, which are estimated using a conditionally autoregressive prior. The user …

Model-Based Clustering, Classification, And Discriminant Analysis Using The Generalized Hyperbolic Distribution: Mixghd R Package, Cristina Tortora, Ryan P. Browne, Aisha Elsherbiny, Brian C. Franczak, Paul D. Mcnicholas Jan 2021

Model-Based Clustering, Classification, And Discriminant Analysis Using The Generalized Hyperbolic Distribution: Mixghd R Package, Cristina Tortora, Ryan P. Browne, Aisha Elsherbiny, Brian C. Franczak, Paul D. Mcnicholas

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

The MixGHD package for R performs model-based clustering, classification, and discriminant analysis using the generalized hyperbolic distribution (GHD). This approach is suitable for data that can be considered a realization of a (multivariate) continuous random variable. The GHD has the advantage of being flexible due to skewness, concentration, and index parameters; as such, clustering methods that use this distribution are capable of estimating clusters characterized by different shapes. The package provides five different models all based on the GHD, an efficient routine for discriminant analysis, and a function to measure cluster agreement. This paper is split into three parts: the …

Almost All Permutation Matrices Have Bounded Saturation Functions, Jesse Geneson Jan 2021

Almost All Permutation Matrices Have Bounded Saturation Functions, Jesse Geneson

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

Saturation problems for forbidden graphs have been a popular area of research for many decades, and recently Brualdi and Cao initiated the study of a saturation problem for 0-1 matrices. We say that a 0-1 matrix A is saturating for the forbidden 0-1 matrix P if A avoids P but changing any zero to a one in A creates a copy of P . Define sat(n, P ) to be the minimum possible number of ones in an n × n 0-1 matrix that is saturating for P . Fulek and Keszegh proved that for every 0-1 matrix P, either …

The Integer-Antimagic Spectra Of Graphs With A Chord, Richard M. Low, Dan Roberts, Jinze Zheng

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

Let A be a nontrival abelian group. A connected simple graph G = (V, E) is Aantimagic if there exists an edge labeling f : E(G) → A \ {0} such that the induced vertex labeling f+ : V (G) → A, defined by f+(v) = Puv∈E(G) f(uv), is injective. The integer-antimagic spectrum of a graph G is the set IAM(G) = {k | G is Zk-antimagic and k ≥ 2}. In this paper, we determine the integer-antimagic spectra for cycles with a chord, paths with a chord, and wheels with a chord.

Stellar Velocity Dispersion And Dynamical Mass Of The Ultra Diffuse Galaxy Ngc 5846_Udg1 From The Keck Cosmic Web Imager, Duncan A. Forbes, Jonah S. Gannon, Aaron J. Romanowsky, Adebusola Alabi, Jean P. Brodie, Warrick J. Couch, Anna Ferré-Mateu

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

The ultra diffuse galaxy in the NGC 5846 group (NGC 5846UDG1) was shown to have a large number of globular cluster (GC) candidates from deep imaging as part of the VEGAS survey. Recently, Müller et al. published a velocity dispersion, based on a dozen of its GCs. Within their quoted uncertainties, the resulting dynamical mass allowed for either a dark matter free or a dark-matter-dominated galaxy. Here, we present spectra from KCWI that reconfirms membership of the NGC 5846 group and reveals a stellar velocity dispersion for UDG1 of σGC = 17 ± 2 km s-1. Our dynamical mass, with …

Typology Emerges From Simplicity In Representations And Learning, Dakotah Lambert, Jonathan Rawski, Jeffrey Heinz Jan 2021

Typology Emerges From Simplicity In Representations And Learning, Dakotah Lambert, Jonathan Rawski, Jeffrey Heinz

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

We derive well-understood and well-studied subregular classes of formal languages purely from the computational perspective of algorithmic learning problems. We parameterise the learning problem along dimensions of representation and inference strategy. Of special interest are those classes of languages whose learning algorithms are necessarily not prohibitively expensive in space and time, since learners are often exposed to adverse conditions and sparse data. Learned natural language patterns are expected to be most like the patterns in these classes, an expectation supported by previous typological and linguistic research in phonology. A second result is that the learning algorithms presented here are completely …

Private Facilitators Of Public Regulation: A Study Of The Environmental Consulting Industry, Dave Owen Jan 2021

Private Facilitators Of Public Regulation: A Study Of The Environmental Consulting Industry, Dave Owen

Faculty Scholarship

Most accounts of businesses and regulators depict adversarial relationships. In these accounts, businesses typically seek to avoid or limit public regulation or, alternatively, to distort it so it serves private rather than public ends. This article uses a study of the environmental consulting industry to explore a different set of relationships between businesses and public regula- tion. These consultants generally work for for-profit companies, and they serve as regulatory intermediaries between busi- nesses and government. Those dual roles raise concerns that environmental consultants, like many other businesses, will seek to subvert regulatory schemes or will serve as instruments of regulatory …

Mild Cognitive Impairment: The Manchester Consensus, Ra Dunne, D Aarsland, Jt O’Brien, Et Al

Peninsula Medical School

Given considerable variation in diagnostic and therapeutic practice, there is a need for national guidance on the use of neuroimaging, fluid biomarkers, cognitive testing, follow-up and diagnostic terminology in mild cognitive impairment (MCI). MCI is a heterogenous clinical syndrome reflecting a change in cognitive function and deficits on neuropsychological testing but relatively intact activities of daily living. MCI is a risk state for further cognitive and functional decline with 5–15% of people developing dementia per year. However, ~50% remain stable at 5 years and in a minority, symptoms resolve over time. There is considerable debate about whether MCI is a …

Law, Land Use, And Groundwater Recharge, Dave Owen Jan 2021

Law, Land Use, And Groundwater Recharge, Dave Owen

Faculty Scholarship

Groundwater is one of the world’s most important natural resources, and its importance will increase as climate change continues and the human population grows. But groundwater management has traditionally been governed by lax and uneven legal regimes. To the extent those regimes exist, they tend to focus on the extraction of groundwater rather than the processes—referred to as groundwater recharge—through which water enters the subsurface. Yet groundwater recharge is crucially important to the maintenance of groundwater supplies, and it is also highly susceptible to human influences, particularly through our pervasive manipulation of land uses. This Article discusses the underdeveloped law …

Wilderness Law In The Anthropocene: Purism Or Pragmatism, Phillipa C. Mccormack, Benjamin J. Richardson, David Takacs, Kees Bastmeijer

Faculty Scholarship

Wilderness is vanishing. Despite explicit legislative protection of wilderness values for over half a century, rapid environmental degradation worldwide in recent decades has severely diminished the extent and quality of terrestrial and marine wilderness to the point where we must reassess the fundamental premises and future of wilderness law. With increased human demands on the natural world, and with climate breakdown looming, the very notion of “wilderness” itself may one day be considered meaningless or irrelevant. We examine legal developments in the United States, Australia, and Europe to critically evaluate the state of wilderness law. In this Anthropocene era, when …

The New Zealand Parliament has recently granted the Whanganui River and the Te Urewera mountain ecosystem rights as legal persons, with a Māori governing board to speak for the nonhuman entities, based upon traditional cultural precepts. Far from an isolated precedent, in what the U.N. Secretary General calls “the fastest growing legal movement of the twenty-first century,” legislatures, courts, or voters in Australia, Colombia, Ecuador, Bangladesh, India, Uganda, and the U.S. have also declared that rivers and other living systems have legal rights.
