TL;DR: Higher PEEP, lower peak, plateau, and driving pressures, and lower respiratory rate are associated with improved survival from ARDS, compared with older age, immunosuppression, neoplasia, lower pH and increased non-pulmonary SOFA scores.
Abstract: PURPOSE: To improve the outcome of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), one needs to identify potentially modifiable factors associated with mortality.METHODS: The large observational st ...

TL;DR: In this article, track reconstruction efficiency at LHCb using J/psi -> mu(+)mu(-) decays is determined. But the accuracy of track reconstruction was not analyzed.
Abstract: The determination of track reconstruction efficiencies at LHCb using J/psi -> mu(+)mu(-) decays is presented. Efficiencies above 95% are found for the data taking periods in 2010, 2011, and 2012. The ratio of the track reconstruction efficiency of muons in data and simulation is compatible with unity and measured with an uncertainty of 0.8% for data taking in 2010, and at a precision of 0.4% for data taking in 2011 and 2012. For hadrons an additional 1.4% uncertainty due to material interactions is assumed. This result is crucial for accurate cross section and branching fraction measurements in LHCb.

TL;DR: Clinical research is to standardize CIPN assessment to maintain a high level of attention to the possible neurotoxicity of drugs more recently introduced into clinical practice and to identify druggable targets for pharmacological intervention in order to prevent or limit CIPn.
Abstract: Purpose of reviewChemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) is clinically relevant because it is frequent, it might be dose-limiting, it affects the cancer survivors’ quality of life, and no treatment is available. Better understanding of CIPN might lead to an improvement in its management

TL;DR: An overview on the clinical and genetic aspects of ADNFLE including a discussion of some open questions on the role of the neuronal nicotinic receptor subunit mutations in the pathogenesis of this form of epilepsy is discussed.
Abstract: Autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (ADNFLE) is an idiopathic epilepsy, with a spectrum of clinical manifestations, ranging from brief, stereotyped, sudden arousals to more complex dystonic–dyskinetic seizures. Video–polysomnography allows a correct differential diagnosis. There is no difference between sporadic nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (NFLE) and ADNFLE in the clinical and neurophysiological findings. ADNFLE is the first idiopathic epilepsy for which a genetic basis has been identified. Mutations have been found in two genes (CHRNA4 and CHRNB2) coding for neuronal nicotinic receptor subunits (α4 and β2, respectively). Contrasting data have been reported on the effect of these mutations on the functionality of the receptor.Moreover, the incomplete data on the neuronal network/s in which this receptor is involved, make difficult the understanding of the genotype–phenotype correlation. This is an overview on the clinical and genetic aspects of ADNFLE including a discussion of some open questions on the role of the neuronal nicotinic receptor subunit mutations in the pathogenesis of this form of epilepsy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present very-long-baseline interferometry observations, performed 207.4 days after the binary neutron star merger event GW170817, using a global network of 32 radio telescopes.
Abstract: The binary neutron star merger event GW170817 was detected through both electromagnetic radiation and gravitational waves. Its afterglow emission may have been produced by either a narrow relativistic jet or an isotropic outflow. High-spatial-resolution measurements of the source size and displacement can discriminate between these scenarios. We present very-long-baseline interferometry observations, performed 207.4 days after the merger by using a global network of 32 radio telescopes. The apparent source size is constrained to be smaller than 2.5 milli-arc seconds at the 90% confidence level. This excludes the isotropic outflow scenario, which would have produced a larger apparent size, indicating that GW170817 produced a structured relativistic jet. Our rate calculations show that at least 10% of neutron star mergers produce such a jet.
