Abstract:

Parties may well opt for arbitration as a dispute resolution method because it is fast, flexible, and allows for rapid disposition. Where attempts are made for summary disposition, the traditional view was to resist such processes for fear of offending the fair hearing rule. Close attention to the question, and to recent developments in institutional rules, and the treatment of challenges based on procedural fairness grounds, reveals a picture that is more nuanced than the traditional view. Together with a consideration of waiver provisions, this article considers summary disposition in the face of the requirement for procedural fairness.

Abstract:

This study examines the factors influencing the decisions of investors who use analysts' recommendations to arrive at a short-term decision to hold or to sell a stock. Specifically we examine if the presence of analysts' recommendations reduces the tendency for investors to commit the disposition error, i.e., sell winning stocks too soon and hold losing stocks too long. We also examine whether the strength of supporting arguments to the analysts' recommendations affects investor decisions. Our results indicate that the presence of an analyst summary recommendation report reduces the disposition error for gains but not for losses. A strong form of the analyst summary recommendation report, i.e., one with additional information supporting the analysts' position further, reduces the disposition error for gains and also reduces the disposition error for losses.

Abstract:

Practitioners and parties have criticized international arbitration in recent years for losing its competitive edge of resolving disputes swiftly. What was once an advantage has now become a source of concern and the impetus for a concerted effort to find a remedy. One remedy that has recently attracted attention is the summary disposition of claims. This article explores the power of arbitrators to hear and rule on dispositive motions, the scope of this power and recommended best practices in its exercise, and the necessary shift in attitudes within the arbitration community to accept and embrace dispositive motions.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE: To report the disposition of foscarnet in a patient undergoing peritoneal dialysis. CASE SUMMARY: A 34-year-old man with AIDS received foscarnet for the treatment of esophageal cytomegalovirus. We characterized the clearance of foscarnet in this patient during continuous cyclic peritoneal dialysis (CCPD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). DISCUSSION: The foscarnet half-lives during CCPD and CAPD were 41.4 and 45.8 hours, respectively. These values are significantly greater than the half-life of 4.5 hours observed in patients with normal renal function and about half that reported in anuric patients undergoing hemodialysis during the interdialytic period. The CCPD and CAPD clearances of foscarnet were 5.8 and 4.5 mL/min, respectively; the CAPD clearances of creatinine and urea nitrogen were 4.1 and 6.0 mL/min, respectively. The patient's estimated total body clearance values of foscarnet during CCPD and CAPD were 9.8 and 8.8 mL/min, respectively. Thus, CCPD and CAPD augmented the patient's residual clearance of foscarnet by 145% and 105%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Since incremental increases in residual clearance of 30% or more generally will result in clinically significant changes in a drug's serum concentration, foscarnet dosage needs to be individualized for patients receiving peritoneal dialysis.

Abstract:

e14543 Background: Glioblastoma Multiforme is an aggressive primary brain tumor that will inevitably recur despite initial resection and maximal medical treatment, and re-resection is often pursued. Surgical resection has been shown to impact survival both in the upfront and recurrent settings, but it is unknown if subsequent resections impart worsened neurologic outcomes. The goal of this study was to evaluate patient’s post-operative disposition, hospital length of stay, and readmission within 30 days of discharge as a function of number of resections. Methods: This project was a retrospective chart review. Demographic information was collected regarding patients’ age, sex, IDH-1 mutation, and MGMT methylation status, and each patient’s discharge summary and hospital encounters were reviewed to determine length of hospital stay, location of disposition (home, acute rehabilitation facility, or skilled nursing facility), and readmission within 30 days of initial release. Univariate associations between each clinical predictor and outcome of interest were evaluated. Results: 162 patients with Glioblastoma as indicated on initial surgical pathology report met the inclusion criteria. 108 patients underwent two resections, 48 underwent three resections, and 6 underwent four resections. No statistically significant associations were observed between resection number and age, sex, MGMT methylation status, IDH-1 mutational status, disposition category, hospital length of stay, or readmission within 30 days. Disposition category after first resection was significantly associated with disposition category after second resection (p = 0.041) and readmission within 30 days after second resection was significantly associated with readmission within 30 days after third resection (p = 0.003). Hospital length of stay after second or third resections was not significantly different than a patient’s length of stay after first resection. Conclusions: These data demonstrate for the first time that subsequent resections are not associated with worse patient outcomes and that patient disposition after initial resection is an important predictor of disposition with subsequent resections.

Abstract:

Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common illness with significant mortality without appropriate treatment. Its disease severity is variable, difficult to prognosticate and triage of severe PE remains a patient safety concern. Some PE may benefit from invasive and advanced medical therapy, but these decisions require complex multi-disciplinary coordinated care. We have launched a multi-disciplinary rapid response team at the Foothills Medical Center Hospital (FMC) to assist prognostication, treatment, disposition planning, and followup for high-risk PE: The Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT). Aim Statement: PERT has been implemented to improve patient-oriented outcomes however, as severe PE is infrequent, we initially target process measures. In the first year of PERT rollout, we aim for: 1) 100% of high risk PE be detected by emergency for PERT consult 2) PERT response be within 45 minutes of activation 3) PERT treatment and disposition be made within 1 hour of consult. 4) > 80% of patient dispositions match those informed by evidence-based risk stratification tools. Measures & Design: Through collaboration between emergency medicine, radiology, cardiac sciences, medical specialties and critical care, a collective evidence-based PE risk stratification/treatment pathway was developed. This has been disseminated to providers and embedding into electronic medical records (EMR) for computer assisted decision-making support. EMR data has been harmonized with standardized radiographic reporting for PE to cue reporting of high risk imaging findings. Standardized imaging and EMR prognostic factors flag high risk PE suggesting PERT activation. PERT standard operating procedures have been developed, including evidenced-based pathways for further therapy, advanced imaging, and subspecialized disposition planning. Clinical services meet quarterly, and review dashboard summary data on clinical adverse events, resource utilization, and time data of patient flow to revise PE care pathways. Evaluation/Results: PERT activations occur approximately 2 times weekly. Adherence to operating procedures is high. Feedback post implementation cites improved adherence to evidence-based practice, clearer communication, and faster patient disposition. Quantitative analysis of performance is limited by infrequency of cases. Discussion/Impact: Our project shows feasibility of a PERT service. Pre-implementation data is collected, and we are currently measuring these post. We suspect signal of improved patient-oriented outcomes will be detected with more cases.

Abstract:

Major developments in nanomedicines, such as nanoparticles (NPs), nanosomes, and conjugates, have revolutionized drug delivery capabilities over the past four decades. Although nanocarrier agents provide numerous advantages (e.g., greater solubility and duration of systemic exposure) compared to their small-molecule counterparts, there is considerable inter-patient variability seen in the systemic disposition, tumor delivery and overall pharmacological effects (i.e., anti-tumor efficacy and unwanted toxicity) of NP agents. This review aims to provide a summary of fundamental factors that affect the disposition of NPs in the treatment of cancer and why they should be evaluated during preclinical and clinical development. Furthermore, this chapter will highlight some of the translational challenges associated with elements of NPs and how these issues can only be addressed by detailed and novel pharmacology studies.

Abstract:

Objective: To report cyclosporine and vancomycin disposition during continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHD) in a 41—year-old heart transplant patient while in the intensive care unit at a primary and tertiary care teaching hospital. Case Summary: The patient received a 60—mg infusion of cyclosporine over 24 hours and vancomycin 1 g over 1 hour. Blood samples subsequently were collected and analyzed using whole blood monoclonal radioimmunoassay and fluorescence polarization immunoassay, respectively. Blood samples were measured every hour from the arterial and venous lines of the apparatus, as were ultrafiltrate drug concentrations. Drug clearance rates into the ultrafiltrate subsequently were calculated. Discussion: Measurements of ultrafiltrate detected no cyclosporine. A slight variation existed between arterial and venous drug concentrations, which was not statistically significant (p > 0.05, paired Student's t-test). Analysis of vancomycin samples revealed a steady decline of drug concentration, with 4.75% of the dose eliminated in the ultrafiltrate. Vancomycin arterial and venous concentrations decreased from 24.4 and 23.3 mg/L to 15.7 and 12.3 mg/L, respectively. Conclusions: Vancomycin is eliminated by CVVHD and it may be necessary for these patients to receive the drug more frequently. In contrast, cyclosporine is not removed effectively by CVVHD; therefore, replacement doses are not warranted.

Abstract:

This paper originally formed the Introduction to a monograph written jointly with D. C. Innes, published in 1988; but it is basically the author’s work. It first sums up what can be said of Sopatros, who taught at Athens, perhaps in the late fourth century AD. It then turns to his major work, The Division of Problems [Latin controversiae], and discusses its relation to Hermogenes’ earlier book on the status system, before going on to describe the nature and importance of Sopatros’ work. Sections follow on the disposition (lay-out) of speeches, the ‘invention’ of arguments, and style (with much detail on ‘Asianism’). Finally, after a section on ‘Attic’ declamation, the style of Sopatros himself is analysed. The piece goes well beyond the topic of Sopatros, and is in effect a summary study of Greek declamation as a whole.

Abstract:

In this chapter we review the good of gratitude and recommend various methods for cultivating this human strength. First, we show how gratitude is indeed good. We show how gratitude is important to flourishing and happiness. Gratitude is strongly correlated with various measures of well-being, and experimental studies suggest that gratitude actually causes increases in happiness. If gratitude is good, then it behooves us to investigate how the disposition of gratitude can be enhanced. We suggest that grateful responding can be enhanced by training in noticing the good in one's life, and by encouraging interpretations and appraisals that have been found to promote gratitude. We then present a discussion of unresolved issues in the science of gratitude. This is followed by a discussion of who might benefit most from gratitude. We conclude with a summary of the cultivation of gratitude. Research strongly supports the idea that the cultivation of gratitude should result in a harvest of happiness, but cultivating gratitude is not likely to be an easy process.

Abstract:

The conclusion offers a summary of the main theoretical and empirical insights this book has produced. The empirical findings confirm the study’s basic argument that weak institutional powers and an unreliable situational setting presuppose a stronger dependence on the incumbent’s personal capacities and (pre-)dispositions to successfully address the office’s leadership demands. A comprehensive assessment of the political leadership performance of the three Commission presidents Walter Hallstein, Jacques Delors, and José Manuel Barroso, concerning their agenda-setting leadership, mediative-institutional leadership, and public leadership, finds that Hallstein’s leadership performance was moderately strong-executive, Delors’ was strong-entrepreneurial, and Barroso’s was weak-passive/non-leadership. A preliminary evaluation of the leadership performance of Jean-Claude Juncker, Commission president between 2014 and 2019, follows. Finally, there is a plea to substantially strengthen the institutional powers of the Commission presidency to make it less dependent on individual agency and incumbents’ personal (pre-)dispositions.

Abstract:

University faculty created the Llano Estacado Writers' Alliance (LEWA) in response to improving the quality and rigor of online doctoral programs. The goal for LEWA was to promote meaningful academic writing and transform doctoral students' identities as agentic academic writers. After LEWA's inception, the authors incorporated the perspectives of their alumni and advanced doctoral students to help address students' needs. This chapter documents the four-year journey of forming LEWA and developing new approaches to mentoring online doctoral students. Specifically, the authors recount the evolution from the faculty-led, week-long summer intensives that addressed students' anxieties and uncertainties about the doctoral program to the writing intensives that were more student centered, responsive, and primarily focused on the mores of academic writing. Results demonstrated the benefits of professor-led and peer-led networks in developing students' sense of belonging, sense of accountability to their peers, and a sense of self-worth as capable academic writers.

Abstract:

Causal powers have been posited to ground and explain activity in nature. And yet, powers are subject to scrutiny and criticism today as they were in the seventeenth century and for more or less the same reasons. The detailed and substantive Introduction sketches the key conceptions of, and arguments for and against, powers from Aristotle up to the present. In the first part (Sections 1.1–1.5), there is an account of the history of the powers debate, starting with the Aristotelian conception and moving through medieval accounts to the revolt against powers by the novatores of the seventeenth century. Various criticisms of powers, notably by Descartes, the occasionalists, Boyle and Newton, as well as endorsements, notably by Leibniz, are presented. Then there is an account of Hume’s systematic critique of the epistemology and ontology of powers, of the transition from a power-based to a law-based conception of nature (notably in the work of Mill) and finally a recounting of the various attempts to eliminate or reduce powers and dispositions in the twentieth century. Sections 1.6–1.9 describe the key reasons for the comeback of powers in the last quarter of the twentieth century, notably the issues concerning the nature of properties and the ontic status and necessity of the laws of nature. Sections 2.1–2.12 offer a detailed summary of the twelve contributions to the volume. Finally, the chapter concludes with questions for moving forward.

Abstract:

This chapter explores the entangled relations of a contemporary and post- traditional festival with a much older festive substrate associated with Holy Week and Carnival. In this sense it is not intended as a systematic study of the Iberoamerican Theater Festival of Bogotá (ITFB), much less as a summary of its more than two decade long history. My more modest goal is to read this festival as a material and rhetorical dispositif arising in response to a social crisis (Castro Gómez, 2011), closely related to what I have called elsewhere regimes of festive alteration (Vignolo, 2015: 138-159): 1 The fiesta-bonanza, distinguished by excess and associated with human, territorial, and resource exploitation on the frontier of capitalist expansion (Braudel, 2002; Taussig, 1980: xii). 2 the fiesta-revolution, dominated by the trope of inversion and aiming to undermine the status quo, disrupt the social order, and scramble established dichotomies (Bakhtin, 1984; Eco, 1984). 3 The fiesta-passion, where the ritual sacrifice of a savior figure provides the community with a chance to separate from the conflicts that threaten its unity, through the trope of transfiguration. (Girard 1977; Esposito, 2003). Intertwined, superimposed, and interarticulated, they encompass practically all the festive events of the last 30 years in Colombia, it would be possible to trace their genealogy back to colonial times (Vignolo, 2015: 139).

Abstract:

In the early 1980’s, the Seismic Qualification Utility Group (SQUG) was formed to develop a generic methodology to disposition Unresolved Safety Issue USI A-46. Working in conjunction with the regulatory authorities and industry, SQUG developed a methodology and procedure to apply earthquake experience data to demonstrate the seismic ruggedness of electrical and mechanical equipment for resolution of USI A46. In the early 1990’s, QME Main Committee formed the Subgroup on Dynamic Qualification (SGDQ) to include a prescriptive methodology in the QME-1 Standard to apply actual earthquake experience to seismic qualification of mechanical equipment. For the past fifteen to twenty years, extensive data has been assembled on the actual performance of piping systems when subjected to strong motion earthquakes. This data has been compiled and assembled by several organizations and presented in various publications. In addition, several organizations developed procedures to apply this “experience” data to the seismic evaluation for piping systems in various applications. This paper provides an overview of application of actual earthquake experience data to the evaluation of mechanical equipment and piping systems.

Abstract:

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Fissile Materials Disposition Program (FMDP) is pursuing reactor irradiation of mixed uranium-plutonium oxide (MOX) fuel for disposal of surplus weapons-usable plutonium. Since most of the MOX fuel utilization experience has been with reactor-grade plutonium, it is desired to demonstrate that the unique properties of the surplus weapons-derived or weapons-grade (WG) plutonium do not compromise the applicability of this MOX experience base. A related question to be addressed for weapons-derived MOX fuel is that of ductility loss of the cladding. While irradiation induced loss of ductility has long been known and quantified for many cladding materials, the potential synergistic effects of irradiation and the unique constituents (i.e., gallium) of weapons-derived MOX fuel are not known. As part of an extensive fuel qualification research program conducted by Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), a new test method was developed and validated to measure the room temperature ductility and hoop tensile properties of MOX fuel cladding. The cladding material is a zirconium alloy designated as Zr-4 manufactured by Sandvick Corporation. This paper is a summary of the test method developed and of demonstration test results obtained for MOX cladding irradiated to 21 GWd/MT [7 × 1020 n/cm2 (E > 1 MeV)].

Abstract:

The remediation and decommissioning of the Hematite Former Fuel Cycle Facility (FFCF), the Hematite Facility, is currently being carried out by Westinghouse Electric Company LLC under the Hematite Decommissioning Project (HDP). The Hematite Facility is located near the town of Hematite, Missouri, USA. The Hematite Facility consists of 228 acres of land with primary operations historically being conducted within the central portion of the property that is roughly 10 acres including Burial Pits and the Site Pond area. Decommissioning and remediation activities are being performed with the eventual objective of the release of the property. Primary contaminants include the legacy disposal and contamination of natural and enriched uranium from the nuclear fuel cycle, as well as chemicals used during the facility operations. Two major regulatory bodies, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), provide critical roles in the approval and oversight of the current regulatory path to remediation, decommissioning and eventual release. Further, remediation and decommissioning activities are performed under the implementing policies, plans, and procedures under the Hematite Decommissioning Plan (DP) and the Record of Decision (ROD). Remediation and decommissioning tasks at the Hematite Former Fuel Cycle Facility, referred to as the Hematite Facility, are performed against a disciplined decision logic flow that applies accumulated technical and monitoring data to determine each step of the excavation, exhumation, and removal of wastes from the Burial Pits and the remaining Areas of Concern (AOC). Decision flow logic is based upon the nuclear criticality safety controls and threshold conditions, relative level of radioactive and chemical contamination, security protocol, and final waste stream disposition. The end result is to remediate the residual radioactive and chemical contamination to approved dose-based and risk-based cleanup criteria as negotiated with U.S. Federal and State Regulators. The purpose of the paper is to provide a summary of the successful implementation of the decision flow logic to the remediation and decommissioning tasks performed to date.

Abstract:

Exploring micro data requires the ability to use digital tools for managing large multivariate data. Digital tools allow changing easily between different uni- and multivariate displays and summary statistics for a deeper insight into the data. In this paper we examine the suitability of several digital data analysis tools for exploring a large, multivariate socio-economic dataset, ranging from educational tools (TinkerPlots, Fathom) to professional software (R). Based on German income structure data, we will point out benefits and limitations of TinkerPlots, Fathom and R for comparing groups, investigating subgroups, analyzing relationships between variables and for exploring multivariate phenomena.

Abstract:

In 1975 the valencian cardiologist F. Torrent-Guasp described the heart as a Helical Ventricular Myocardial Band (HVMB) in which “The ventricular myocardium is presented when it is unrolled under the form of a single big muscular band that, due to its special disposition, describes two cavities in the intact heart” [1]. It gives a different perspective of the morphology of the heart than the current and it could explain better and most coherently the propagation of the electrical stimulus which activates the shortening of the fibres, the complex deformation movement of the heart and maybe an explanation about understanding the cardiac contraction.

Full text

Abstract:

The particle rebounding characteristics of a gas–particle flow over a cylindrical body and an in-line tube bundle arrangement is investigated. With the aim of adopting both numerical and experimental approaches, the mean particulate flow patterns, comprising both incident and rebound particles resulting from the impact of particles on solid walls, are examined. Experimentally, a two-dimensional Laser-Doppler Anemometry (LDA) technique is used to measure the instantaneous incident and rebound particle velocities in the immediate vicinity of body surfaces. Computationally, the Reynolds-Averaging Navier-Stokes equations are solved for the continuum gas phase; the results are used in conjunction with a Lagrangian trajectory model to predict the particle-rebound characteristics. For a single tube model, the computational observations, also confirmed through experiment, reveal a particle rebound zone where the mean particulate flow pattern is significantly modified due to the contribution of the rebound particles during particle-wall impact interaction. For the in-line tube bundle model, particles being rebounded from the first row of tubes at upstream migrated downstream and impinged the other tubes in an extremely complex and random disposition. Analysis of the effect of the above-mentioned parameters on the rebounding particle flow characteristics has provided a better understanding on the behaviour of particulate flow impinging on curved solid wall bodies.

Abstract:

The Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site is a former nuclear weapons production facility owned by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Located in central Colorado near Denver, the facility produced nuclear and non-nuclear components for weapons from 1953 to 1989. During this period, Rocky Flats grew to more than 800 facilities and structures situated on 2,500 hectares. Production activities and processes contaminated a number of facilities, soil, groundwater and surface water with radioactive and hazardous materials. In 1989, almost all radioactive weapons component production activities at Rocky Flats were suspended due to safety and environmental concerns related to operations, and the site was placed on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s National Priorities List (also known as the Superfund list). In 1992, the nuclear weapons production role at Rocky Flats officially ended and the mission changed from weapons production to one of risk reduction. In 1995, Kaiser-Hill, LLC (Kaiser-Hill) was awarded a five-year contract to reduce the urgent health and safety risks at the site, as well as begin the cleanup. At that time, the U.S. government estimated that it would cost more than $36 billion and take more than 70 years to cleanup and close Rocky Flats. Beginning in the summer of 1995, Kaiser-Hill developed a series of strategic planning models which demonstrated that accelerated cleanup of the site could be achieved while dramatically reducing cleanup costs. Within a few years, Kaiser-Hill developed a cleanup plan or lifecycle baseline that described how cleanup could be accomplished by 2010 for about $7.3 billion. Additionally, between 1995 and 2000, Kaiser-Hill made significant progress toward stabilizing special nuclear materials, cleaning up environmental contamination, demolishing buildings and shipping radioactive and hazardous waste for disposal. This initial contract was completed for approximately $2.8 billion. In January 2000, based its record of successes, Kaiser-Hill was awarded DOE’s first “closure contract” to close the site no later than December 2006, at a target cost of $3.96 billion. To date, some of the key enablers of the accelerated closure project concept and successful closure project execution include: • Shared vision of the end state; • Flexible, consultative regulatory agreement; • Credible project plan and robust project management systems; • Closure contract; • Empowered and motivated workforce; • Commitment to safety; • Closure-enhancing technologies. The scope of the closure project encompasses the following key completion metrics: • Disposition of 21 metric tons of weapons-grade nuclear materials; • Treatment of more than 100 metric tons of high-content plutonium wastes called residues; • Processing of 30,000 liters of plutonium and enriched uranium solutions; • Demolition of more than 800 facilities and structures totaling more that 325,000 square meters — many of which are contaminated with radioactive and/or hazardous materials; • Offsite shipment of more than 250,000 cubic meters of radioactive waste; • Disposition of approximately 370 environmental sites.
