    Elevating the Field of Eating Disorders Through Scholarship and Thoughtfulness: Honoring the Legacy of Dr. Michael Strober

    No full text
    This Virtual Issue of the International Journal of Eating Disorders honors the legacy of the late Dr. Michael Strober in the eating disorders and child psychiatry fields. Having served as Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Eating Disorders from 1983 to 2012, Dr. Strober elevated the quality of science conducted in the eating disorders field. His frank feedback and encouraging words inspired many junior researchers to sharpen their work and to think deeply about their results. An incisive thinker, eloquent writer, and gifted clinician, Dr. Strober was a role model for psychologists in clinical leadership positions and demonstrated that it is indeed possible to be a highly effective all-rounder. In this issue, we present an annotated selection of Dr. Strober's publications in the journal over the past decades to illustrate the evolution of his thinking and the seeds of what have become major directions in the field, including fear conditioning and genetics. By presenting this collection of his work, we encourage all investigators to read broadly and deeply and to identify and acknowledge those incisive scholars who have built the foundation upon which our work today stands

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    Efficacy and safety of abrocitinib in biologic-exposed versus biologic-naive patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis

    No full text
    Abrocitinib, an oral once-daily Janus kinase 1 selective inhibitor, is being investigated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). This post hoc analysis evaluated if prior treatment with biologic therapy affects response to abrocitinib. Data from patients (pts) with/without previous biologic therapy from each treatment arm (abrocitinib 200 mg or 100 mg, or placebo) of the phase 2b (NCT02780167) and phase 3 JADE MONO-1 (NCT03349060) and MONO-2 (NCT03575871) studies were pooled and evaluated separately from the phase 3 JADE REGIMEN (NCT03627767) open-label induction phase (abrocitinib 200 mg). Investigator’s Global Assessment score of 0/1 (IGA 0/1) with ≥2-grade improvement from baseline and ≥75% improvement from baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) were assessed. IGA 0/1 response rates among 67/867 pts with/without prior biologic therapy were 43.5%/41.4% (abrocitinib 200 mg), 24.1%/26.7% (abrocitinib 100 mg), and 0%/8.5% (placebo) in the pooled population, and 53.5%/66.9% (abrocitinib 200 mg) among 86/1147 pts in REGIMEN. EASI-75 response rates in pts with/without prior biologic therapy were 65.2%/62.4% (abrocitinib 200 mg), 34.5%/42.7% (abrocitinib 100 mg), and 7.1%/12.7% (placebo) in the pooled population, and 64.0%/76.4% in REGIMEN. Treatment-emergent adverse event rates in pts with/without prior biologic therapy were 71.7%/69.9% (abrocitinib 200 mg + 100 mg arms) in the pooled population, and 66.3%/66.5% (abrocitinib 200 mg) in REGIMEN. Abrocitinib efficacy and safety were consistent in pts with moderate-to-severe AD regardless of prior biologic therapy

    Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses

    No full text
    Following an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied
