TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effects of the perception of human crowding and spatial crowding on consumer shopping behavior through mediation of emotions of pleasure, arousal, dominance, and a feeling of satisfaction in an international market.
Abstract: Crowded retail shopping conditions can result from many shoppers being present during a given time and at a given place, as well as from limited customer space owing to inadequate floor layout design and allocation of fixtures and merchandise on the floor. This study investigated the effects of the perception of human crowding and spatial crowding on consumer shopping behavior through mediation of emotions of pleasure, arousal, dominance, and a feeling of satisfaction in an international market. A store intercept survey was conducted on 554 hypermarket consumers in Taipei, Taiwan. The proposed structural relationships among perceived retail crowding, emotions, and retail outcomes were analyzed by using confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling with Lisrel 8.54. The results of the study demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed model in delineating the relationships of retail crowding-emotions-satisfaction-retail outcomes under actual retail environments. The study found that while...

TL;DR: The results suggest that a public health initiative is needed to enhance postdischarge follow‐up of renal function and to control the subsequent incidence of stroke among patients who recover from AKI after dialysis.
Abstract: Background The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring dialysis in hospitalized patients is increasing; however, information on the long-term incidence of stroke in patients surviving to discharge after recovering from AKI after dialysis has not been reported.
Methods and Results Patients that survived after recovery from dialysis-requiring AKI during index hospitalizations from 1999 to 2008 were identified in nationwide administrative registries. The risk of de novo stroke and death were analyzed with time-varying Cox proportional hazard models. The results were validated by a critical care database. We enrolled 4315 patients in the AKI-recovery group (men, 57.7%; mean age, 62.8±16.8 years) and matched 4315 control subjects as the non-AKI group by propensity scores. After a median follow-up period of 3.36 years, the incident stroke rate was 15.6 per 1000 person-years. The AKI-recovery group had higher risk (hazard ratio: 1.25; P =0.037) and higher severity of stroke events than the non-AKI group, regardless of progression to subsequent chronic kidney disease. The rate of incident stroke was not statistically different in those with diabetes alone (without AKI) and in those with AKI alone (without diabetes) after hospital discharge ( P =0.086). Furthermore, the risk of mortality in the AKI-recovery group was higher than in the non-AKI group (hazard ratio: 2.4; P <0.001).
Conclusions The patients who recovered from AKI had a higher incidence of developing incident stroke and mortality than the patients without AKI, and the impact was similar to diabetes. Our results suggest that a public health initiative is needed to enhance postdischarge follow-up of renal function and to control the subsequent incidence of stroke among patients who recover from AKI after dialysis.

TL;DR: Findings indicated that uMSCs were effective in decreasing renal inflammation and alleviating experimental lupus nephritis by inhibiting lymphocytes, inducing polarization of Th2 cytokines, and inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines production rather than direct engraftment and differentiating into renal tissue.
