Introduction: Daytime sleepiness, reported in about 50 % of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), is associated with high morbidity, poor quality of life and increased risk for accidents. While an association between dysautonomia and daytime sleepiness in early, de-novo PD has been reported, our understanding of the role of medications, cognitive status and co-morbidites on this relationship is inadequate.
Methods: Data were analyzed from the prospective Cincinnati Cohort Biomarkers Program.

This study investigates the relationship between corporate energy efficiency (EE) and financial performance (FP), emphasizing the moderating role of environmental concerns. Grounded in the Enlightened Value Maximization (EVM) and Natural Resource-Based View (NRBV) theories, the research hypothesizes that the EE-FP relationship strengthens in the presence of environmental concerns. Utilizing firm-level data, the analysis incorporates marginal effect analysis to explore how incremental improvements in environmental management and emissions management practices impact financial outcomes.

Introduction: Patients with blunt chest wall injuries and rib fractures are known to have high rates of atelectasis, pneumonia, pulmonary contusion, and can develop acute respiratory distress syndrome. This can lead to ventilator requirement and dependence, deconditioning secondary to uncontrolled pain, and increased hospital length of stay (LOS). Many studies in the literature have developed triage algorithms in patients with rib fractures to guide disposition and management, and several institutions have gone on to describe their institution-specific management protocols to decrease complications related to traumatic rib fractures.

Understanding species distributions and factors influencing them are important for conservation, particularly for species occurring in human-dominated areas. The Indian crested porcupine (Hystrix indica; hereafter porcupine) is distributed southeast and central Asia, however, the porcupine occurrence and habitat use is poorly understood in the area. We deployed cameras at 154 sites for 21 days (3234 trap nights) during December 2022-March 2023 in the human-dominated landscape of Parsa-Koshi Complex (PKC), Madesh Province, Nepal.
