Comparing Carbon Emissions Across Transportation Mode For A 5-Mile Urban Trip In Spokane, Washington, Christian Agyei

2026 Symposium

Transportation plays a significant role in shaping local greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, particularly in mid-sized cities where automobile use remains dominant. This project examines how carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions differ across transportation modes for a standardized five-mile urban trip in Spokane, Washington. Using emission factors from the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the study estimates grams of CO₂ per passenger-mile and total CO₂ emissions per trip for four transportation modes, including single-occupancy vehicles, public transit, cycling, and walking. Commute pattern data from American Community Survey (ACS) provided local context on travel behavior in Spokane. This analysis …

The Applicability Of Artificial Intelligence In Tour Guiding: Perspective Of Sustainable Service Innovation In Tourism With Technology, Chiranjib Kumar Choudhary Phd, Aditi Choudhary

International Journal of Tour Guiding and Visitor Attraction Research

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly transforming various sectors of the tourism, travel, and hospitality industry. Among these, the role of tourist guides remains crucial, as they act as cultural ambassadors representing destinations and nations. The primary objective of this study is to explore the applications of AI in developing intelligent audio-visual tour guides and assistive devices that enhance tourists’ real-time experiences at heritage sites, tourist attractions, and places of archaeological significance. The research adopts a qualitative approach, utilising secondary data gathered from academic literature, printed and electronic resources, online databases, and expert opinions from tourism professionals. The collected data were …

Intimate Partner Violence And Diagnostic Codes In Pediatric Health Records, Sonali Ramesh, Kelsey Gavin, Nivedita Jayasekar, Ashley K. Sherman, George Abraham, Gunjan Tiyyagura, Kimberly Randell

Research Showcase

Background: Intimate partner violence (IPV) among caregivers impacts 1 in 5 US children annually. Encounters with survivors of IPV need to be carefully documented, as the perpetrator can obtain access to these records either legally or in duplicitous ways. ICD-10 codes are used to document problems addressed during a healthcare encounter. ICD codes have been used to monitor and assess IPV-related care provided in adult settings; knowledge of their use in pediatrics is limited. In 2023, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) revised billing guidelines to incorporate social determinants of health (SDOH) in the determination of medical complexity. …

Current Practices Of Anticoagulant Utilization In Pediatric Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (Aml), Abbey Elsbernd, Natalie Grills, James Antoon, Kathryn Kyler, Lucas Orth, Timothy Savage, Matt Hall, Jennifer Goldman, Shannon Carpenter

Research Showcase

Background:

Management of thromboembolism (TE) in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is challenging due to prolonged periods of thrombocytopenia and associated bleeding. There are no guidelines for anticoagulation for children with AML.

Objectives/Goal:

This study aims to understand anticoagulation utilization and association with bleeding events in hospitalized children with AML, both with and without thromboses.

Methods/Design:

We performed a retrospective cohort study using the Pediatric Health Information System (PHIS) administrative database of index hospitalizations for patients 1-21 years of age upon admission in 2016-2024 with the diagnosis of AML. Patients with bleeding disorders, thrombophilia, and acute promyelocytic leukemia were excluded. …

Treatment Of Severe Hemolysis In A Baby Requiring Multiple Tandem Extracorporeal Support Modalities And Experimental Monoclonal Antibody Therapy, John J. Morelli Iii, Judith Sebestyen Vansickle, Lejla Music Aplenc, Debra E. Newton, Alexandra Oschman, John M. Daniel Iv

Research Showcase

Background: Severe neonatal hemolysis can result in multiorgan dysfunction requiring advanced extracorporeal support. While plasma exchange and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are effective supportive therapies, persistent hemolysis despite these interventions poses significant therapeutic challenges. Eculizumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting terminal complement protein C5, is approved for complement-mediated hemolytic disorders but has not been described in neonates receiving ECMO or concurrent plasma exchange. The pharmacokinetics and efficacy of monoclonal antibody therapies in extracorporeal circuits remain poorly characterized.

Objectives/Goal: To describe the clinical response and pharmacokinetic profile of eculizumab in a neonate with refractory hemolysis requiring ECMO, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), …

Clinical And Non-Clinical Factors Associated With Early Discharge In Pediatric Non-Trauma Patients Transported By Rotor Wing, Jordon Mitzelfelt, Lisa Pruitt, Amy Papa, Ashley K. Sherman, David Juang, Sarah Brunner, Asdis Finnsdottir Wagner, Jennifer Flint

Research Showcase

Background: Helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) are crucial for transporting critically ill children to definitive care, however, rising costs and relative risks of this type of transportation necessitate careful evaluation of potential over-utilization. Current literature primarily focuses on pediatric trauma patients, leaving a significant gap in data regarding non-trauma pediatric HEMS transports and the influence of non-clinical factors such as referral hospital distance, resources, and capabilities on transport decisions.

Objectives/Goal: This study aims to address these gaps by examining non-trauma pediatric HEMS patients and identifying associated clinical and non-clinical factors related to early hospital discharge (< 24 hours).

Methods/Design: This retrospective, single-center …
