High-energy nuclear collisions create a quark-gluon plasma, whose initial condition and subsequent expansion vary from event to event, impacting the distribution of the eventwise average transverse momentum [P([p_{T}])]. Disentangling the contributions from fluctuations in the nuclear overlap size (geometrical component) and other sources at a fixed size (intrinsic component) remains a challenge. This problem is addressed by measuring the mean, variance, and skewness of P([p_{T}]) in ^{208}Pb+^{208}Pb and ^{129}Xe+^{129}Xe collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.

Article Synopsis
  • The optimal treatment for B2 glenoid morphology in young, active osteoarthritis patients is debated, with various options like hemiarthroplasty, total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), and reverse TSA available, each having pros and cons.
  • Eccentric glenoid reaming can be effective but risks damaging the bone structure, potentially complicating future surgeries, while bone grafting, though beneficial for some, comes with high complication rates.
  • Reverse TSA offers a more stable alternative when correcting version and inclination proves difficult, as it adapts better to glenoid deformities and maintains functionality with reduced bone stock.

The management of massive irreparable rotator cuff tears is commonly debated without consensus. With reverse shoulder arthroplasty often reserved for the older patient (older than 60 years) with rotator cuff arthropathy, treatment of the younger patient population (younger than 60 years) without arthritis is more complex. When determining a surgical approach, the clinical presentation including history and physical examination plays a vital role in the decision tree.

Background: Men's perpetration of sexual violence (SV) toward women in drinking venues is a pervasive yet understudied phenomenon with significant downstream consequences for women. Although men's negative attitudes and beliefs toward women play an important role in SV, current attitude measures are limited in that they do not focus on SV specific to drinking contexts, thereby precluding understandings of SV in this context. As such, we developed and evaluated a measure of beliefs and attitudes about men's alcohol-related sexual harassment and aggression (BAMASHA) toward women in drinking venues to better understand this ubiquitous problem.
