TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the kinetics of the methane steam reforming, accompanied by the reverse water gas shift reaction over a commercial Ni/α-Al2O3 catalyst in an integral reactor under conditions of no diffusion limitation.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the incidence of POCD would be less with regional anaesthesia rather than general, and this work has shown this to be the case.
Abstract: Results: At 7 days, POCD was found in 37/188 patients (19.7%, [14.3—26.1%]) after general anaesthesia and in 22/176 (12.5%, [8.0—18.3%]) after regional anaesthesia, P ¼ 0.06. After 3 months, POCD was present in 25/175 patients (14.3%, [9.5—20.4%]) after general anaesthesia vs. 23/165 (13.9%, [9.0—20.2%]) after regional anaesthesia, P ¼ 0.93. The incidence of POCD after 1 week was significantly greater after general anaesthesia when we excluded patients who did not receive the allocated anaesthetic: 33/156 (21.2% [15.0—28.4%]) vs. 20/158 (12.7% [7.9—18.9%]) (P ¼ 0.04). Mortality was significantly greater after general anaesthesia (4/217 vs. 0/211 (P < 0.05)). Conclusion: No significant difference was found in the incidence of cognitive dysfunction 3 months after either general or regional anaesthesia in elderly patients. Thus, there seems to be no causative relationship between general anaesthesia and long-term POCD. Regional anaesthesia may decrease mortality and the incidence of POCD early after surgery.

TL;DR: The presented expert voting results can be used for support in areas of management of men with APC where there is no high-level evidence, but individualised treatment decisions should as always be based on all of the data available.

TL;DR: Rubin's Four Tendencies model provides an opportunity to test a targeted, patient-specific strategy that will provide the most benefit to individual patients and which is easy and inexpensive to administer in everyday practice and widely applicable.
Abstract: Within the context of poorer patient outcomes and rising healthcare costs, we need to better understand why many patients do not engage fully with their treatment plan. Movement away from talking about "compliance" towards "adherence" and "concordance" is evidence of a recognition that this is a two-way process. Whilst healthcare professionals expect patients to engage in treatment, equally, patients have expectations (whether positive or negative) of their treatment and their need for engagement. There is a need for an effective method that can specifically target those interventions that will provide the most benefit to individual patients and which, crucially, is easy and inexpensive to administer in everyday practice and widely applicable. Rubin's Four Tendencies model identifies a patient's "response to outer and inner expectations" as a key factor in adherence. The model therefore provides an opportunity to test such a targeted, patient-specific strategy and we present a call to action for research in this area.

TL;DR: A wide variety of aerodynamic and hydrodynamic means for suppressing vortex shedding is classified into three categories in accordance with the phenomenological mechanism of vortex shedding as mentioned in this paper, i.e., surface protrusions, which affect separation lines and/or separated shear layers, etc.
