TL;DR: This work proposes a centralized fault management system (CFMS) with operation resilience based on real-time Ethernet (rtEthernet) protocols for the protection of smart grids and establishes a comprehensive test-bed by using the large-scale real- time digital system (RTDS) to simulate the power system.

TL;DR: A stepwise approach to this evaluation after negative upper and lower endoscopy has been shown to be cost effective, which includes repeat endoscopies if warranted, followed by video capsule endoscope (VCE) if no obstruction is present.

TL;DR: The authors argue that memories of grotesque death and injury "code" combat as moral pollution and as these veterans present it, combat pollutes every soldier who passes through it, and this classification represents a modern moral culture in which the body is sacred, subject to sustained ritual cleanliness and to strict prohibitions against encroachment by others.
Abstract: This article is based on interviews with U.S. veterans diagnosed with combat-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In remembering war, the veterans consistently described grotesque death and injury. These stories of “blood, guts, and gore” were often closely associated with negative moral evaluations of war, which included outright moral claims, moralistic allusions, and expressions of moral emotions. I argue that memories of grotesque death and injury “code” combat as moral pollution, and as these veterans present it, combat pollutes every soldier who passes through it. Furthermore, this classification represents a modern moral culture in which the body is sacred, subject to sustained ritual cleanliness and to strict prohibitions against encroachment by others. A mutilated body is severely disordered and filthy, and when a product of human design, it represents an extremely cruel trespass. Consequently, mutilated bodies are doubly polluted and can code combat as negative in the extreme. This article illustrates that personal traumatic memories are sociologically and historically organized, that the traditional religious ideas of purity and pollution still order moral life, and that autobiographical memory can be approached as a classificatory structure.

TL;DR: A social media group, the International Hernia Collaboration (IHC), facilitates professional development among surgeons interested in hernia disease and it is found that more IHC surgeons in the US cohort would offer a robotic-assisted approach for primary VIH repair compared to World colleagues.
Abstract: A social media group, the International Hernia Collaboration (IHC), facilitates professional development among surgeons interested in hernia disease. The purpose of this study was to assess practice pattern differences among IHC surgeon members regarding a ventral incisional hernia (VIH) scenario. A single multiple-choice question, posted for 1 month on the IHC, assessed which operation was preferred for a healthy patient with a symptomatic, reducible primary VIH (5 × 6 cm). Responses were compared by surgeon practice location (US vs. World). In total, 371 IHC surgeons completed the survey. More respondents practicing in the US completed the survey (57.1% vs. 42.9%, P < 0.01). Respondents in the US cohort would select a robotic-assisted approach more frequently than World colleagues (47.6% vs. 8.8%, P < 0.01). More IHC surgeons in the US cohort would offer a robotic-assisted approach for primary VIH repair compared to World colleagues. Studies are warranted to investigate practice pattern differences related to VIH repair.

TL;DR: The first use of decitabine in a patient on hemodialysis with a new diagnosis of AML and achieved hematologic remission following the use of induction chemotherapy and maintenance decitABine is reported.
Abstract: Treatment of patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) undergoing hemodialysis is especially challenging since there are no specific management guidelines for the administration of cytotoxic agent...
