Viral Myocarditis-Incidence, Diagnosis and Management.

Viral myocarditis has an incidence rate of 10 to 22 per 100,000 individuals. The presentation pattern of viral myocarditis can range from nonspecific symptoms of fatigue and shortness of breath to more aggressive symptoms that mimic acute coronary syndrome. After the initial acute phase presentation of viral myocarditis, the virus may be cleared, resulting in full clinical recovery; the viral infection may persist; or the viral infection may lead to a persistent autoimmune-mediated inflammatory process with continuing symptoms of heart failure.

Search for production of four top quarks in final states with same-sign or multiple leptons in proton-proton collisions at .

The standard model (SM) production of four top quarks ( ) in proton-proton collisions is studied by the CMS Collaboration. The data sample, collected during the 2016-2018 data taking of the LHC, corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 137 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 . The events are required to contain two same-sign charged leptons (electrons or muons) or at least three leptons, and jets.

Search for Supersymmetry with a Compressed Mass Spectrum in Events with a Soft τ Lepton, a Highly Energetic Jet, and Large Missing Transverse Momentum in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV.

The first search for supersymmetry in events with an experimental signature of one soft, hadronically decaying τ lepton, one energetic jet from initial-state radiation, and large transverse momentum imbalance is presented. These event signatures are consistent with direct or indirect production of scalar τ leptons (τ[over ˜]) in supersymmetric models that exhibit coannihilation between the τ[over ˜] and the lightest neutralino (χ[over ˜]_{1}^{0}), and that could generate the observed relic density of dark matter. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 77.

Interrupting Sedentary Time in the Workplace Using Regular Short Activity Breaks: Practicality From an Employee Perspective.

Objective: To understand the practicalities of undertaking 2 to 3 minutes of light to moderate intensity physical activity after every 30 minutes of prolonged sitting by examining barriers and facilitators.

Methods: Around 27 (n = 22 women) employees working in higher education who sat for greater than 5 hours during a work day participated in a focus group discussion.

Results: Through inductive thematic analysis, themes characterising workplace culture and having the knowledge (or not) of benefits were found to be a facilitator and a barrier.

Safety of antiemetic prophylaxis with HTX-019 as a 30-min infusion in patients with cancer: a retrospective study.

The NK-1 receptor antagonist HTX-019 (CINVANTI [aprepitant injectable emulsion]) was approved for preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting based on bioequivalence studies in healthy volunteers. The objective of this study was to evaluate HTX-019 safety in cancer patients. This retrospective analysis evaluated the safety of HTX-019 130 mg 30-min intravenous infusion, as part of a three-drug antiemetic regimen.

Searches for physics beyond the standard model with the variable in hadronic final states with and without disappearing tracks in proton-proton collisions at .

Two related searches for phenomena beyond the standard model (BSM) are performed using events with hadronic jets and significant transverse momentum imbalance. The results are based on a sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of , collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in 2016-2018 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 . The first search is inclusive, based on signal regions defined by the hadronic energy in the event, the jet multiplicity, the number of jets identified as originating from bottom quarks, and the value of the kinematic variable for events with at least two jets.

Extraction and validation of a new set of CMS pythia8 tunes from underlying-event measurements.

New sets of CMS underlying-event parameters ("tunes") are presented for the pythia8 event generator. These tunes use the NNPDF3.1 parton distribution functions (PDFs) at leading (LO), next-to-leading (NLO), or next-to-next-to-leading (NNLO) orders in perturbative quantum chromodynamics, and the strong coupling evolution at LO or NLO.

Search for Physics beyond the Standard Model in Events with Overlapping Photons and Jets.

Results are reported from a search for new particles that decay into a photon and two gluons, in events with jets. Novel jet substructure techniques are developed that allow photons to be identified in an environment densely populated with hadrons. The analyzed proton-proton collision data were collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, in 2016 at sqrt[s]=13  TeV, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.

The results are presented as a function of the charged particle multiplicity in the region . This measurement is sensitive to correlations induced by the underlying event structure over a very wide pseudorapidity region.

The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of that probe a broad range of the available phase space, for and , , , and jet transverse momentum, , > 25 . The measurements are compared to next-to-leading order perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations, which reproduce the data within uncertainties.

Current Neurologic Assessment and Neuroprotective Strategies in Cardiac Anesthesia: A Survey to the Membership of the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists.

Background: Neurologic injury and cognitive disorder after cardiac surgery are associated with morbidity and mortality. Variability in the application of neuroprotective strategies likely exists during cardiac surgery. The Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA) conducted a survey among its members on common perioperative neuroprotective strategies: assessment of aortic atheromatous burden, management of intraoperative blood pressure, and use of cerebral oximetry.

Association between Bone marrow lesions & synovitis and symptoms in symptomatic knee osteoarthritis.

Objective: Bone marrow lesions (BMLs) on MRI are typically subchondral in location, however, a proportion occur at knee ligament attachments and also include a cyst-like component. Our aim was to determine whether the volume of BML subtypes and synovial tissue volume (STV) was associated with symptoms in symptomatic knee OA.

Method: Images were acquired in a sub-sample who had taken part in a randomised trial of vitamin D therapy in knee OA (UK-VIDEO).

The duty to warn at-risk relatives-The experience of genetic counselors and medical geneticists.

Studies published over 15 years ago surveyed genetic counselors (GC) and medical geneticists (MG) to examine their clinical experiences with the conflict of "duty to warn" versus patient confidentiality. Federal and state laws pertaining to medical professionals' duty to warn have since been implemented following the publications of these studies. Using a merged version of surveys employed in the prior studies, this study seeks to understand clinicians' current decision-making process when faced with patient refusal to inform at-risk relatives, as well as their familiarity with and opinions of laws and guidelines covering this issue.

We hypothesize that there are post-operative, non-surgical risk factors that could be modified to prevent the occurrence of chylothorax, and we seek to determine those factors. Retrospective chart review of 285 consecutive patients < 18 years who underwent cardiac surgery from 2015 to 2017 at a single institution pediatric intensive care unit. Data was collected on patient demographics, cardiac lesion, surgical and post-operative characteristics.

School-Based Telemedicine for Asthma Management.

Asthma affects 10% of school-age children in the United States. These numbers nearly double in high-risk populations such as low-income and minority populations. Patients in these populations frequently live in communities that are medically underserved, with limited resources to implement comprehensive asthma interventions.
