Artificial intelligence-informed planning for the rapid response of hazard-impacted road networks.
Sci Rep

Department of Civil, Environmental & Geomatic Engineering, University College London, London, WC1E 6BT, UK.
Post-hazard rapid response has emerged as a promising pathway towards resilient critical infrastructure systems (CISs). Nevertheless, it is challenging to scheme the optimal plan for those rapid responses, given the enormous search space and the hardship of assessment on the spatiotemporal status of CISs. We now present a new approach to post-shock rapid responses of road networks (RNs), based upon lookahead searches supported by machine learning.

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate inflammation in the lungs of patients suspected to have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) by measuring exhaled nitric oxide (NO) using a specific two-compartment model that corrects for certain back-diffusion issues.
- - Ninety-five patients underwent various tests, and results showed significantly higher levels of alveolar NO in OSA patients compared to those without OSA, indicating a strong correlation between NO levels, the severity of sleep apnea (measured by AHI), and low oxygen levels during sleep.
- - The findings suggest that increased levels of alveolar NO are linked to worse oxygen desaturation at night in OSA patients, highlighting a potential connection between airway inflammation and intermittent lack of oxygen during sleep
Cardiovascular comorbidities in obstructive sleep apnoea according to age: a sleep clinic population study.
Aging Clin Exp Res
October 2015
Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, Université Paris Descartes, Hôpital Cochin, Service de Physiologie-Explorations Fonctionnelles, 27 rue du Faubourg Saint-Jacques, 75014, Paris, France.
Article Synopsis
- The study explores the characteristics of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in elderly (≥65 years) compared to younger patients, focusing on its connection to high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, and heart arrhythmias.
- The research involved adult patients who were assessed for OSA severity through sleep studies, revealing a higher prevalence and severity of OSA in the elderly group compared to younger individuals.
- Findings suggest that there is a stronger correlation between OSA severity and hypertension in younger patients, highlighting the need for early screening for OSA in younger populations and further investigation into OSA severity in older adults without obesity.*
D-dimer testing as the initial test for suspected pulmonary embolism. Appropriateness of prescription and physician compliance to guidelines.
Thromb Res
February 2001
Service de santé publique, Hôpital Cochin, Paris, France.
Objectives: Recent studies have shown that strategies for pulmonary embolism diagnosis which have included D-dimer testing have been most cost effective. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of a new strategy for pulmonary embolism diagnosis based on D-dimer results.
Methods: A prospective survey was conducted in the emergency ward and three medical departments of a university teaching hospital.
