BackgroundQuality Improvement (QI) methods have been used in healthcare since the late 1980s across a wide range of healthcare settings. However, in the UK they have not been applied widely within rheumatology including axial Spondyloarthritis (axial SpA). In 2017, the UK healthcare regulator, NICE, produced a national clinical guideline for axial SpA, but there was no mechanism to encourage uptake of its recommendations.The National Axial Spondyloarthritis Society created a programme to use QI approaches to help encourage uptake of the Guidelines and act as a catalyst for wider improvement in axial SpA care.ObjectivesTo encourage service improvement in axial Spondyloarthritis care through the use of quality improvement theory and methods.MethodsIn late 2019 six rheumatology departments were selected to participate in the first cohort. The programme design was underpinned by:• A framework for management grounded in systems theory1• A learning system that brings healthcare organisations together2• A set of tools to develop, test and implement changes: the Model for Improvement3.The teams met four times for training in QI methods, plus team-based online coaching. They had time to develop their projects and networking opportunities to share their data and experiences of implementation.We conducted a qualitative review of the programme in year one. We interviewed 31 programme participants and reviewed programme documentation.ResultsThe review found that:•A proven QI framework provides a strong basis to build improvement•A competitive programme helps foster motivation and accountability•The programme provides the time to use tools to understand the problem and construct improvement aims•Measurement is key to understand improvement and to create a story of change•Collaboration and engagement is key within the team and with other stakeholders.The teams have: Trained community–based physiotherapists, leading to improved rheumatology referrals Implemented an inflammatory back pain pathway from primary care Introduced an MRI spine IBP protocol to reduce variation in imaging Established a tertiary referral service which has improved time to diagnosis Implemented mental health interventions for patients and reduced the percentage of patients with abnormal scores Established a pathway for physiotherapy self–referral and reduced Did Not Attend rates Used audit to make the business case for an extended scope practitionerConclusionDespite the challenges of posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, a structured QI programme has enabled clinicians to stay engaged and implement projects to reduce diagnostic delay and improve care.References[1]Deming WE.

New states of electromagnetic field, generalized excited negative binomial states are introduced here. These states interpolate between the superposition of two excited coherent states and number states. The non-classical properties for these states are discussed, such as, second order correlation function, squeezing phenomena [normal squeezing and amplitude squared squeezing], phase properties in Pegg–Barnett formalism and the quasi-probability distribution functions (Q-function and Wigner function).

Surface microseismic arrays enable long-term field-scale monitoring over multiple stimulations during the life of an unconventional field. In this study, we show highly economic methods of monitoring with sparse surface arrays in the Barnett Shale and develop an alternatative method of processing to enable good vertical and horizontal resolution of located events. We show that sparse surface monitoring arrays enable not only the detection and location of high numbers of microseismic events but also source mechanism characterization. This case study illustrates how hydraulic fracturing activated normal faulting at a distance of approximately 1 mile from stimulated wells. We show that the source mechanism enables us to resolve between newly created hydraulic fractures and activated faults. The differences in source mechanisms and b-values of newly created fractures and activated faults are consistent with independently processed temporary star-like arrays, which are also deployed over the same stimulation.

Full textAbstract:
Summary Accurate prediction of fracture initiation pressure and orientation is paramount to the design of a hydraulic fracture stimulation treatment and is a major factor in the treatment's eventual success. In this study, closed-form analytical approximations of the fracturing stresses are used to develop orientation criteria for relative-to-the-wellbore (longitudinal or transverse) fracture initiation from perforated wells. These criteria were assessed numerically and found to overestimate the occurrence of transverse fracture initiation, which only takes place under a narrow range of conditions in which the tensile strength of the rock formation is lower than a critical value, and the breakdown pressure falls within a “window.” For a case study performed on the Barnett Shale, transverse fracture initiation is shown to take place for breakdown pressures below 4,762 psi, provided that the formation's tensile strength is below 2,482 psi. A robust 3D finite volume numerical model is used to evaluate solutions for the longitudinal and transverse fracturing stresses for a variable wellbore pressure, hence developing correction factors for the existing closed-form approximations. Geomechanical inputs from the Barnett Shale are considered for a horizontal well aligned parallel to the direction of the least compressive horizontal principal stress. The corrected numerically derived expressions can predict initiation pressures for a specific orientation of fracture initiation. Similarly, at known breakdown pressures, the corrected expressions are used to predict the orientation of fracture initiation. Besides wellbore trajectory, the results depend on the perforation direction. For the Barnett Shale case study, which is under a normal faulting stress regime, the perforations on the side of the borehole yield a wider breakdown pressure window by 71% and higher critical tensile strength by 32.5%, compared to perforations on top of the borehole, implying better promotion of transverse fracture initiation. Leakage of fracturing fluid around the wellbore, between the cemented casing and the surrounding rock, reduces the breakdown pressure window by 11% and the critical tensile strength by 65%. Dimensionless plots are employed to present the range of in-situ stress states in which longitudinal or transverse hydraulic fracture initiation is promoted. This is useful for completion engineers; when targeting low permeability formations such as shale reservoirs, multiple transverse fractures must be induced from the horizontal wells, as opposed to longitudinal fracture initiation, which is desired in higher permeability reservoirs or “frac-and-pack” operations.

"CBT-1 in combination with doxorubicin in patients with metastatic, unresectable sarcomas who previously progressed on doxorubicin." Journal of Clinical Oncology 37, no. 15_suppl (May 20, 2019): TPS11077. http://dx.doi.org/10.1200/jco.2019.37.15_suppl.tps11077.
Full textAbstract:
TPS11077 Background: The response rates of advanced soft tissue sarcomas (STS) to single-agent, first-line anthracycline are typically less than 25%. P-glycoprotein 1 (P-gp), a cell membrane drug efflux pump, is believed to be a resistance mechanism in STS. CBT-1 is a small molecule, orally administered, P-gp antagonist currently under clinical development. This is a multi-institutional open label phase I study of CBT-1 in combination with doxorubicin in patients with anthracycline-refractory sarcoma. The study is designed to determine a maximum tolerable dose (MTD), recommended phase II dose (RP2D), and the safety/tolerability of the combination of CBT-1 and doxorubicin. The study will evaluate anti-cancer activity as a secondary objective as measured by Disease Control Rate (DCR; complete response [CR] + partial response [PR] + stable disease [SD]) at 12 weeks. Objective Response Rate (ORR; CR+PR) and Progression Free Survival (PFS) will be monitored. Correlative studies include assessment of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamicendpoints. Methods: Patients 18 years or older with locally advanced metastatic, unresectable STS, prior progression on ≤ 150 mg/m2 of doxorubicin (or another anthracycline equivalent), ECOG PS ≤ 1 and normal organ function, are eligible for this study. Dosing includes fixed doxorubicin (37.5 mg/m2 IV day 5 and day 6) and escalation of oral CBT-1 on days 1-7 of a 21 day cycle. This study follows a standard 3+3 phase I design where dose escalation will occur if < 0/3 or 1/6 patients experience a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). Tumor assessments are conducted at Week 6 and Week 12. For patients with response or stable disease, treatment is allowed to continue for 4-5 cycles to a maximum of 450 mg/m2 lifetime doxorubicin exposure. Once RP2D is defined, an additional 10 patients will be enrolled into the dose expansion phase. To date, Cohorts 1 (50 mg CBT-1) and 2 (100 mg CBT-1) have been completed with one DLT of grade 4 neutropenia lasting longer than 7 days in Cohort 1. Enrollment to Cohort 3 began December 2018.

Full textAbstract:
When performing validation studies on diagnostic classification procedures, one or more biomarkers are typically measured in individuals. Some of these biomarkers may provide better information; moreover, more than one biomarker may be significant and may exhibit dependence between them. This proposal intends to estimate the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC) for classifying individuals in a screening study. We analyze the dependence between the results of the tests by means of copula-type dependence (using FGM and Gumbel-Barnett copula functions), and studying the respective AUC under this type of dependence. Three different dependence-level values were evaluated for each copula function considered. In most of the reviewed literature, the authors assume a normal model to represent the performance of the biomarkers used for clinical diagnosis. There are situations in which assuming normality is not possible because that model is not suitable for one or both biomarkers. The proposed statistical model does not depend on some distributional assumption for the biomarkers used for diagnosis procedure, and additionally, it is not necessary to observe a strong or moderate linear dependence between them.

Sous l'influence première d'un article de Barnes (1954), les études anthropologiques sur les réseaux sociaux ont ouvert une voie de recherches qui apparaît encore pleine de promesses. Il faut bien avouer, pourtant, que jusqu'à maintenant peu d'analyses fondées sur des données empiriques ont emporté la conviction. Les études de réseaux n'ont pas encore fait la preuve de leur fécondité. Il leur manque un fondement théorique, pourtant disponible dans la théorie des graphes qui est justement une théorie des réseaux, qu'ils soient sociaux ou autres. Comme l'a noté Mitchell, la jonction n'existe pas — ou pas assez — entre les spécialistes de la théorie des graphes et les chercheurs sur le terrain (1969, p. 35). Pourtant, quelques bons exposés ont été écrits par des anthropologues, qui indiquent bien ce qu'on pourrait tirer d'une utilisation plus poussée de la théorie des graphes (en particulier Mitchell, 1969; Barnes, 1969a; et surtout Barnes, 1972). Malgré ces mises en place, la plupart des études empiriques ne dépassent guère l'analyse situationnelle qui, comme le note Barnes (1972, p. 13), peut fort bien se passer de la notion de réseau, en plus d'être inapte au dégagement d'hypothèses générales. Nous allons donner, à la fin de cet article, une brève illustration d'une étude proprement structurale des réseaux sociaux, au sens où l'entendent Harary, Norman et Cartwright (1968), dans leur ouvrage sur les graphes orientés. En utilisant des données recueillies sur le terrain, nous montrerons comment la notion d'articulation, tirée de la théorie des graphes, permet de poser et de traiter des problèmes théoriques, mais aussi pratiques, qui nous semblent propres aux réseaux sociaux. Auparavant, nous voudrions discuter de certaines questions préalables à une analyse vraiment spécifique des réseaux sociaux. Ils ont trait au concept même de réseau, à la constitution des unités d'analyse, et aux différentes voies d'analyse qui s'offrent au chercheur.

Full textAbstract:
Summary Hydraulic fracturing is recognized as the main stimulating technique to enhance recovery in tight fissured reservoirs. These fracturing treatments are often mapped by use of hypocenters of induced microseismic events. In some cases, the microseismic mapping shows asymmetry of the induced-fracture geometry with respect to the injection well. In addition, the conventional theories predict fracture propagation along a path normal to the least compressive in-situ stresses, whereas in some cases the microseismic data suggest fracture propagation parallel to the minimum compressive stress. In this paper, we present an extended-finite-element-method (XFEM) model that can simulate asymmetric fracture-wing development as well as diversion of the fracture path along natural fractures. Simulation results demonstrate the sensitivity of the fracture-pattern geometry to differential stress and natural-fracture orientation with respect to the in-situ maximum compressive stress. We examine the properties of sealed natural fractures that are common in formations such as the Barnett shale and show that they may still serve as weak paths for hydraulic-fracture beginning and/or diversion. The presented model predicts faster fracture propagation in formations where natural fractures are favorably aligned with the tectonic stresses.

It argues that Tindale effectively reduced a diversity of indigenous practices to ordered categories more reflective of Western and colonial concepts than indigenous views. Tindale did not consider linguistic criteria in depth, had few informants, worked within arbitary tribal boundaries, was biased towards the category 'Pitjantjatjara' and was informed by notions of racial/linguistic purity.

Master of Visual ArtsThe title Normal What refers to a group of paintings that emerged from my Masters of Visual Arts 2004/05 studio project. Individual paintings are chronological self portrait reflecting upon my own experiences and those in the wider community who at some point in their lives have had to endure the struggles, and negative stigma that is so often attached to those who have become marginalised and detached from mainstream society. People found in this category include the disabled, homeless, unemployed, and those with addiction problems. Each painting bears a close connection with techniques associated with abstract expressionist painting. This radiates through the vast expanse of drips, stains and explosions which appear to suffocate the paintings delicate monochrome surface. Strong references to Kristeva’s theory on Abjection arrive through the aggressive and violent outbursts of paint that evoke an atmosphere of symbolic horror, personal dysfunction and social oppression. This emerges out of the shadows and private spaces of the painting’s domestic interior. Deep emotional, psychological, sociological sensitivities are raised throughout my studio practice. Combined with a series of unresolved tensions, and questions surrounding normality run deep a consequence of society’s push for normality are being felt most acutely by those effected by this form of sociology. The ideas raised through my studio project had a profound influence on the research being conducted for the dissertation. Kristeva’s theory on Abjection, along side the practices of Eva Hesse, Barnett Newman, Agnes Martin emerged from a group of highly emotional abstract paintings. This strengthened the connection between the studio project and the dissertation. Aimed at deepening a personal understanding an commitment to researching the subject of normality and how it could be successfully articulated through a visual narrative.

Syftet med min uppsats har varit att undersöka mönster som binder samman normen, barnet och döden i Tim Burtons verssamling The melancholy death of Oyster boy and other stories. Detta gör jag med hjälp av en tematisk och komparativ metod för att undersöka motivet konflikten mellan barnet och samhället i boken i jämförelse med traditionell och subversiv barnlitteratur. Jag inleder med en översikt av hur konflikten mellan barnet och samhället sett ut i barnlitteratur, där drar jag även paralleller till Burtons bok. Därefter gör jag en analys av relationen mellan föräldrarna och barnen i boken i jämförelse med subversiv och traditionell barnlitteratur, för att visa på hur detta motiv kommer fram i Burtons bok. Jag går sedan över till att diskutera relationen till andra karaktärer, samt barnet och normen, för att sedan avsluta med en översikt av motivet döden i barnlitteratur och hur detta motiv framkommer i Burtons berättelser.

This thesis examines the writing of U.S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union Joseph Davies, Norman Deuel of the United Press, and Joseph Barnes of the New York Herald Tribune over the course of their respective postings in Moscow between 1936-1938. The purpose of this thesis is to look past interpretations of perceived right and wrong reporting on the Soviet Union and instead identify precisely how and why Americans outside the diplomatic corps viewed and perhaps identified with aspects of Stalinist society. Residing in Moscow over an extended period of time, Davies, Barnes, and Deuel were not mere observers. Immersed in Soviet society, Davies and the press correspondents became themselves producers of socialist realist writing as their American affinity for ambitious modernization translated into an idealized view of Stalinist modernization projects, one which viewed present hardships through a socialist realist lens while echoing Soviet enthusiasm for medical and scientific advancements, material plenty, heroics, youth, and territorial exploration. Excluded from the close-knit circle of career diplomats, Davies and the newsmen also came to view the Moscow show trials through the same socialist realist lens, one which presented the desired utopian future through elaborate socialist realist theatre.

This chapter discusses the rules of law that apply when considering the best interests of the child, and how these may actively be used as arguments in a Child Protection Services (CPS) case. The primary focus is linked to the Child Welfare Act and the decisions and justifications of the CPS; however, the goal has also been to look at the national rules in the context of human rights. This applies particularly to the best interests of the child as a basic value of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. To understand an area of law it may also be necessary to have insight on the developments in this field. Discussions are being raised about making the quality of attachment a principle in its own right, about the child’s independent right to child protection services and the child’s right to participate and have influence. New challenges have been raised in the wake of decisions by the ECHR, where several judgments have been quite critical of Norwegian child protection practices. The impending new Child Welfare Act in Norway will affect CPS’ legal basis for the decisions it makes in the future. There is much to indicate that we are living in a time when the different interpretations of the best interests of the child are emerging more clearly.

Great strides had been made in the war against cancer with chemotherapy even before the emergence of protein kinase inhibitors. For instance, prior to vinblastine (1, Velban) became available in 1964 for the treatment of lymphoma, the diagnosis of Hodgkin’s disease (a cancer of the lymph nodes) was virtually a death sentence. Today there is a 90% chance of survival with the treatment by vinca alkaloids such as 1 and other chemotherapies. Similarly, when Sidney Farber discovered the effects of methotrexate (2, Trexall) on leukemia, it marked the beginning of the triumph over childhood leukemia. Following Barnett Rosenberg’s discovery of cisplatin (3, Platinol)’s effects on tumor cells in 1967, cisplatin and its analogs such as carboplatin (4, Paraplatin) and oxaliplatin (5, Eloxatin) contributed significantly in boosting the survival rate of patients with metastatic testicular cancer, ovarian tumors, and bladder cancer. Most significantly, breast cancer, a malady striking one in eight women, has been effectively managed via a plethora of treatments including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapies. The arsenal of chemotherapeutics for treating breast cancer includes SERMs such as tamoxifen (6) and raloxifene (7, Evista). Type I, II, and III aromatase inhibitors have now also been widely prescribed to combat breast cancers (more details may be found in chap. 4). Today, breast cancer is sometimes viewed as a chronic disease that can be managed, rather than a lethal disease. Despite the efficacy of the aforementioned chemotherapeutics, they kill cancer cells and normal cells with equal ferocity. (Some have compared chemotherapy to a “carpet bombing” strategy.) However, the reason these chemotherapies are effective is that cancer cells divide at much faster rate than normal cells; therefore, chemotherapies kill more malignant cells than healthy cells. Chemotherapies invariably come with significant side effects rooted. For example, hair follicle cells have a physiologically high mitosis rate; therefore, chemotherapies kill them faster than other healthy cells. In the same vein, other common side effects of chemotherapy include diarrhea (because ephithelial renewal is inhibited), bone marrow suppression (because granulopoiesis, thrombopoiesis, cytopoiesis, and erythropoiesis are inhibited), and lymph node damage (because of lymphocyte multiplication inhibition causes immune weakness).

Full textAbstract:
In this article, we explore how children and youth participating in a multicultural festival in Norway construct space and place. Such events respond to the call to action for reducing prejudice and stereotypes, and they aim to promote inclusion, participation and community. Nonetheless, researchers have criticized such events for instead promoting categorical understandings of cultural identities; as such, some researchers regard multicultural festivals as counterproductive to the aim of promoting inclusion. However, previous research has directed scarce attention to the participants’ perspective, in particular viewpoints of children and youth. Inspired by perspectives on spatial justice (Soja, 1996, 2010), we interpret young people’s experiences and meaning making while attending a multicultural festival. We collected data through an app, which allowed us to conduct structured interviews with children and youths on site. The findings bring out the significance of space and place when interpreting young people’s participation and meaning making at such events. We conclude the article by reflecting on the potential of perspectives on space and place to nuance an often one-sided criticism of multicultural events.
