No full textEpisode 3: Translanguaging pedagogy in CS Education
This video looks at how multilingual students already use translanguaging in their computer science classes and discusses how CS educators can further support them with translanguaging pedagogy, a framework that prompts teachers to consider their stance, design, and shifts.

TCT-270 Contemporary Use of Mechanical Circulatory Support for the Treatment of Acute Myocardial Infarction Cardiogenic Shock (AMI-CS): Insights From the BMC2 Registry
No full textBackground: Recent randomized controlled trial evidence suggest a mortality benefit of microaxial flow pump (mAFP) in AMI-CS. We investigated the contemporary prevalence of MCS use in the treatment of AMI-CS in Michigan. Methods: We included all primary PCIs for STEMI complicated by CS performed at 48 Michigan hospitals between April 1, 2018, and December 31, 2023. We excluded patients with persistent neurologic deficit after cardiac arrest (CA) and the use of right ventricular MCS. The analysis cohort was divided into 4 groups: no-MCS, mAFP, IABP, and other MCS. Site-specific utilization of MCS was compared between the 4 groups. Results: AMI-CS was present in 9.3% (n = 1,989) of STEMIs; 38.3% were excluded from the analysis due to neurological injury post-CA. Of the study cohort, 52.4% of patients with AMI-CS were treated without MCS, 23.1% with IABP, 23.0% with mAFP, and 1.5% with other MCS devices. There was significant heterogeneity in the baseline comorbidities, procedural characteristics, and outcomes across MCS groups. Over the study period, each individual site treated a median of 17 patients (Q1, Q3: 12.3-34.8 patients) with AMI-CS with a median usage of mAFP of 21.6% (Q1, Q3: 10.1%, 33.3%). AMI-CS volume did not correlate with mAFP utilization (Pearson rho 0.092; P = 0.5) (Figure 1). [Formula presented] Conclusion: Hospitals in Michigan have low annual case volumes and significant heterogeneity in the treatment of AMI-CS. Future efforts are needed to enhance early recognition of AMI-CS, implement protocol-based care to optimize evidence-based use of mAFP, and streamline “hub and spoke models” to facilitate delivery of contemporary AMI-CS therapies including mAFP.

Arizona Then and Now: Exploring Arizona's Five Cs Through Photography
No full textabstract: Arizona Then and Now: Exploring Arizona's Five Cs Through Photography is a photographic exploration of the evolution of Arizona's five Cs: cotton, copper, citrus, cattle, and climate. This project first looks to the past to see how these five elements shaped the state of Arizona. Photographs were taken across the valley of these elements, or lack thereof, discovering what Arizona has transformed into in the process. Each chapter of the book begins with a brief history of the element focused on in that chapter, followed by an analytical thought about the photographs taken and how the element has evolved. Each chapter shows two historical photographs followed by a series of photographs taken during the project that the author thought depicted what is seen today. The book ends on a final positive note about how the five Cs are not dead, but soon could be completely taken over. This project was a way for a non-art major to explore the state that she grew up while also challenging herself by more than just taking pictures. The photographs displayed in the book depict a sampling of what the author saw that is left of the five Cs
IR-improved DGLAP-CS QCD parton showers in Pythia8
No full textAbstractWe introduce the recently developed IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory into the showers in Pythia8, as this Monte Carlo event generator is in wide use at LHC. We show that, just as it was true in the IR-improved shower Monte Carlo Herwiri, which realizes the IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory in the Herwig6.5 environment, the soft limit in processes such as single heavy gauge boson production is now more physical in the IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory version of Pythia8. This opens the way to one’s getting a comparison between the actual detector simulations for some of the LHC experiments between IR-improved and unimproved showers as Pythia8 is used in detector simulations at LHC whereas Herwig6.5, the environment of the only other IR-improved DGLAP-CS QCD MC in the literature, Herwiri1.031, is not any longer so used. Our achieving the availability of the IR-improved DGLAP-CS Pythia8 then is an important step in the further development of the LHC precision theory program under development by the author and his collaborators

Microporous cesium salts of tetravalent Keggin-type polyoxotungstates Cs-4[SiW12O40], Cs-4[PW11O39(Sn-n-C4H9)], and Cs-4[PW11O39(Sn-OH)] and their adsorption properties
No full textMicroporous cesium salts of modified and unmodified tetravalent Keggin-type polyoxometalates, including Cs-4[SiW12O40], Cs-4[PW11O39(Sn-n-C4H9)], and Cs-4[PW11O39(Sn-OH)], were synthesized. The crystalline structures, which had body-centered cubic (bcc) arrangements, the lattice constants, and the pore-size distributions of the three Cs salts were similar, regardless of the presence or absence and types of functional groups introduced. The Cs salts had only micropores and no mesopores. The micropore size distributions were determined from adsorption isotherms of Ar, which showed a sharp peak at 0.59 nm and a shoulder at 0.62 nm. The fractions of the external surface areas to the total surface areas of the Cs salts were less than 6%. It is plausible that the micropores originate from the heteropoly anion defects in the crystallite, which form to avoid mismatches in the Cs+/(heteropoly anion) ratio required for charge balance (=4) and for a bcc structure (=3). The surface of the Cs salt introduced with n-butyl groups was hydrophobic, although the surface density of the n-butyl groups was low. On the other hand, the hydroxyl groups present on the surface of Cs-4[PW11O39(Sn-OH)] had little effect on the adsorption of water, methanol, ethanol, and hexane but a great impact on that for benzene due to the interactions between the -OH groups and the aromatic rings (-OH center dot center dot center dot pi).

Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
