This study aimed to compare and contrast the clinical characteristics of TTS in African-American (AA) and non-African-American (NAA) patients.\n\n\nMethods: We retrospectively reviewed the charts of eight patients (four AA and four NAA) diagnosed with TTS, between June 2006 and August 2008, in four different teaching hospitals: St Michael’s Medical Center, St Joseph’s Medical Center, Trinitas hospital and St Louis’ University Hospital. We compared the patients with regard to presenting symptoms, precipitating stressors, electrocardiographic findings, troponin levels, ejection fraction and in-hospital course.\n\n\nResults: All patients were females (mean age 64 for AA and 67 for NAA). All patients experienced chest pain and had elevated troponin levels. Two AA and three NAA patients had associated shortness of breath and one NAA had syncope. All AA and three NAA had T-wave inversions. Three NAA and one AA had ST segment elevation. Three patients in both groups developed prolongation of the QT interval. Coronary angiograms did not reveal any significant obstructive coronary artery disease. Three patients, all NAA, needed hemodynamic support during their hospital stay but none died.\n\n\nConclusion: AA and NAA women with TTS have similar presenting symptoms but may differ in the electrocardiographic findings and in-hospital course of the disease.

Urologic injury was defined as any injury to the kidneys, ureters or bladder. We defined hematuria from the microscopic urinalysis and reported by the clinical laboratory as the exact number of red blood cells per high power field (RBC/hpf).\n\n\nResults: Of the 502 children in the study group, 17 (3%; 95% CI [2%-5.4%]) had evidence of urologic injury on the abdominal or pelvic CT. Microscopic urinalysis for those children with urologic injury ranged from 0 to15,544 RBC/hpf. The remaining 485 children without urologic injury had a range of hematuria from 0 to 20,596 RBC/hpf. A receiver operating characteristic curve was generated and the area under the curve is 0.796 (95% CI [0.666-0.925]).\n\n\nConclusion: If the abdominal and pelvic CT is used as the criterion standard for identifying urologic trauma, the microscopic urinalysis has moderate discriminatory power to predict urologic injury.

A finger-stick blood glucose of ≥250 mg/dL at triage was used to confirm the diagnosis of uncontrolled diabetes. After obtaining written consent, each patient had a urine dip performed and a chemistry panel drawn. Any level of proteinuria on the urine dip was considered to be a positive test. Based on the laboratory and clinical guidelines at our institution, renal insufficiency was defined as creatinine concentration of greater than 1.3 mg/dL.\n\n\nResults: Three Hundred ninety-three confirmed patients with uncontrolled diabetes were enrolled in this study, and 49 of these (12.5%) were found to have renal insufficiency. The sensitivity and specificity of the urine dip for predicting renal insufficiency were 69.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] 54.6-81.7%) and 57.8% (95%CI 52.4-63.1%) respectively. The positive predictive value was 19% (95%CI 13.5-25.5%), and the negative predictive value was 93% (95%CI 88.7-96%). The positive likelihood ratio was 1.65 (95%CI 1.32-2.06) and the negative likelihood ratio was 0.53 (95%CI 0.34-0.81).\n\n\nConclusion: In this cohort of patients with uncontrolled diabetes, the test characteristics of the urine dipstick make it a poor screening tool for renal insufficiency in the ED.

Hospital administrators and public officials may therefore be motivated to implement crowding protocols. We sought to identify a potential cost of ED crowding by evaluating the contribution of excess ED length of stay (LOS) to overall hospital length of stay. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of administrative data of adult patients from two urban hospitals (one county and one university) in Brooklyn, New York from 2006-2007. Data was provided by each facility. Extrapolating from prior research (Krochmal and Riley, 2005), we determined the increase in total hospital LOS due to extended ED lengths of stay, and applied cost and charge analyses for the two separate facilities. Results: We determined that 6,205 (5.0%) admitted adult patients from the county facility and 3,017 (3.4%) patients from the university facility were held in the ED greater than one day over a one-year period. From prior research, it has been estimated that each of these patient’s total hospital length of stay was increased on average by 11.7% (0.61 days at the county facility, and 0.71 days at the university facility). The increased charges over one year at the county facility due to the extended ED LOS was therefore approximately $9.8 million, while the increased costs at the university facility were approximately $3.9 million. Conclusion: Based on extrapolations from Krochmal and Riley applied to two New York urban hospitals, the county hospital could potentially save $9.8 million in charges and the university hospital $3.9 million in costs per year if they eliminate ED boarding of adult admitted patients by improving movement to the inpatient setting.

The objective of this study was to explore whether the quality of faculty bedside teaching of residents correlated with high clinical productivity, measured by relative value units (RVUs). We also explored the strategies of high-performing faculty for optimal RVU generation and teaching performance.\n\n\nMethods: We performed a mixed method study using quantitative and qualitative methods to analyze the relationship between RVUs, patient satisfaction, and teaching performance. We examined the relationship between teaching performance ratings, patient satisfaction, and RVUs per hour using correlations. Following this initial analysis, we conducted semi-structured interviews with the eight faculty members who have the highest clinical (RVU) and educational productivity ratings to learn more about their strategies for success. Our Institutional Review Board approved this study.\n\n\nResults: We correlated resident evaluations of faculty with RVUs billed per hour. We conducted semi-structured interviews of faculty who led in both RVU productivity and resident evaluations. From these interviews, several themes emerged. When asked about how they excel in billing, most said that they pay attention to dictating a thorough chart on every patient and try to “stay busy” throughout their entire shift. When asked how they excel at resident education, most leading faculty said that they try to find a “teaching moment” and find small “clinical pearls” to pass along. Nevertheless, all eight leading faculty members believe that as the emphasis on billing productivity increases, resident and student education will suffer.\n\n\nConclusion: Contrary to the opinion of some physicians, faculty can excel at both clinical productivity and resident education. This study found that highly efficient clinical productivity correlated with excellent resident teaching.

Data were entered into SPSS (SPSS, version 13.0) and analyzed for frequencies. Qualitative short answer data were transcribed during the interview, coded and analyzed prior to translation by the principal investigator.\n\n\nResults: One thousand two hundred and six assault victims presented for care during the eight-week study period, of which 216 disclosed the relationship of the assailant, including 92 who were victims of FV. Almost all patients (90%) waited less than one hour to be seen, with most patients (67%) waiting less than 30 minutes. Most patients did not require laboratory or radiographic diagnostics at the primary (70%) and secondary (93%) health facilities, while 44% of patients received a radiograph at the tertiary care center. Among all three hospitals, only 10% were transferred to a higher level of care, 14% were not given any form of follow up or referral information, while 13% required a specialist evaluation. No victims were referred for psychological follow-up or support. Qualitative data revealed that some patients did not disclose violence as the etiology, because they believed the physician was unable to address or treat the violence-related issues and/or had limited time to discuss.\n\n\nConclusion: Healthcare services for treating the physical injuries of victims of FV were timely and rarely required advanced levels of medical care, but there were no psychological services or follow-up referrals for violence victims. The healthcare environment at all three surveyed health centers in Mozambique does not encourage disclosure or self-report of FV. Policies and strategies need to be implemented to encourage patient disclosure of FV and provide more health system-initiated victim resources.

Current methodology for finding blood in the CSF is either spectrophotometric detection of pigment, which is time consuming and labor intensive, or visual assesment of samples for color change (xanthochromia), which is inaccurate. Bayer Multistix® urine test strips are designed to test urine for RBC by detecting the presence of hemoglobin. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the perfomance of urine reagent test strips for ruling out the presence of RBC in CSF.\n\n\nMethods: We compared color changes on Multistix® urine test strips to the standard of spectrophotometric absorbtion at 415nm and initial RBC counts in 138 visually clear CSF samples.\n\n\nResults: We performed Pearson Chi-Square and likelihood ratios on the results and found a correlation between a negative result on the urine test strip and less than 5 RBC per high power field and a spectrophotometric absorbance of less than 0.02% at 415nm in a CSF sample.\n\n\nConclusion: These results warrant further investigation in the form of a prospective clinical validation as it may alter the emergency department evaluation for SAH.

We sought to evaluate differences in the availability of immediate bedside ultrasound based on basic ED characteristics and physician staffing.\n\n\nMethods: We surveyed ED directors in all 351 EDs in Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, and Oregon between January and April 2009. We assessed access to bedside ED ultrasound by the question: “Is bedside ultrasound available immediately in the ED?” ED characteristics included location, visit volume, admission rate, percent uninsured, total emergency physician full-time equivalents and proportion of EM board-certified (BC) or EM board-eligible (BE) physicians. Data analysis used chi-square tests and multivariable logistical regression to compare differences in access to bedside ED ultrasound by ED characteristics and staffing.\n\n\nResults: We received complete responses from 298 (85%) EDs. Immediate access to bedside ultrasound was available in 175 (59%) EDs. ED characteristics associated with access to bedside ultrasound were: location (39% for rural vs. 71% for urban, P20%] rates, P<0.001); and EM BC/BE physicians (26% for EDs with a low percentage [0-20%] vs.74% for EDs with a high percentage [≥80%], P<0.001).\n\n\nConclusion: U.S. EDs differ significantly in their access to immediate bedside ultrasound. Smaller, rural EDs and those staffed by fewer EM BC/BE physicians more frequently lacked access to immediate bedside ultrasound in the ED.

In the water, we tested nitrate, phosphate, and pH levels. lastly, we sampled shoreline plankton abundance both morning and evening. Sediment phosphorus and water phosphates were strongly correlated with one another, but water nitrates remained relatively constant, at low levels, across sites. daytime plankton abundance showed a positive trend with water phosphate. these trends suggest nitrogen is quickly taken up by plankton, making nitrogen the limiting factor for them. the relationship between plankton and phosphorus is influenced by more complex factors.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "plankton" }, { "word": "nitrogen" }, { "word": "phosphorus" }, { "word": "Pollution" }, { "word": "anthropogenic" }, { "word": "water quality" }, { "word": "sediment" }, { "word": "Indicator" }, { "word": "San Francisco Bay" }, { "word": "Ecology, Evolution, Systematics, and Population Biology" } ], "section": "Research", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1zf0t4tr", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Monica", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Moritsch", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_accepted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_published": "2011-03-19T09:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/our_bsj/article/59626/galley/45607/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 59622, "title": "Can A Virus Cause Cancer: A Look Into The History And Significance Of Oncoviruses", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Cancer" }, { "word": "Oncovirus" }, { "word": "disease" }, { "word": "DNA" }, { "word": "RNA" }, { "word": "Virus Diseases" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6c57612p", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Niema", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Rwazavian", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_accepted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_published": "2011-03-19T09:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/our_bsj/article/59622/galley/45603/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 59619, "title": "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome As An Agent of Infectious Disease: A Review of Etiological Agents", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Fatigue" }, { "word": "syndrome" }, { "word": "disease" }, { "word": "Mental" }, { "word": "Physical" }, { "word": "Etiology" }, { "word": "Virus Diseases" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0kq3s3c2", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Amy", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Hassenberg", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Berkeley", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_accepted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_published": "2011-03-19T09:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/our_bsj/article/59619/galley/45600/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 59624, "title": "Interview With Dr. Lee Riley", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Infectious disease" }, { "word": "Lee Riley" }, { "word": "India" }, { "word": "brazil" }, { "word": "Other Public Health" } ], "section": "Interviews", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3fq6s55f", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Michael", "middle_name": "R", "last_name": "Moses", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California - Berkeley", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Alex", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Gagnon", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California - Berkeley", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_accepted": "2011-03-17T09:00:00+02:00", "date_published": "2011-03-19T09:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/our_bsj/article/59624/galley/45605/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 59625, "title": "Knowledge, Attitudes, And Practice Towards Epilepsy: Survey Of Chinese And Vietnamese College Students In The U.S.", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "We conducted the first national cross-sectional survey of chinese and Vietnamese American adults about their knowledge, attitudes, and practice towards epilepsy.

William Wells Brown, Creole Civilization, and Temperate Manners", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "In the nineteenth century, temperance movements provided the occasion for a transnational discourse. These conversations possessed an intensity throughout Britain and the United States. In America temperance often became associated with strongly nationalistic Euro-American forms of identity and internal purity. Nonetheless, African American reformers and abolitionists bound themselves to temperance ideals in forming civil societies that would heal persons and provide communal modes of democratic freedom in the aftermath and recovery from chattel slavery. This paper explores the possibilities of temperance as a transnational discourse by considering its meaning in the life and work of the African American author and activist, William Wells Brown. Brown expressed a “creole civilization” that employed the stylistics of the trickster as a unique mode of restraint that revealed a peculiar power of passivity that was able to claim efficacy over one’s life and community. This meaning of temperance diverges from and dovetails with certain European meanings of civilization that were being forged in the nineteenth century. Brown was in conversation with temperance reformers in America, Britain, and Europe. He imagined the possible meaning of temperance in African, Egyptian, Christian, and Islamic civilizations. He speculated upon the possibility of temperance as a defining characteristic of a transnational civilization and culture that would provide spaces for the expression of democratic freedom. Brown reimagined temperance as a form of corporeal restraint that offered a direct and sacred relation to the land, space, people that appeared in between an ethnic nationalist ethos and the European imperialistic civilization.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "William Wells Brown (1816-1884)" }, { "word": "Temperance" }, { "word": "Transnationalism" }, { "word": "civilization" }, { "word": "Creolization" }, { "word": "transcultural exchange" }, { "word": "Three Years in Europe (1852)" }, { "word": "Clotel" }, { "word": "or the President’s Daughter (1853)" }, { "word": "My Southern Home (1880)" }, { "word": "The Rising Son (1874)" }, { "word": "American literature" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8qd1j3m9", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Carole Lynn", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Stewart", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Brock University", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2009-06-12T10:00:00+03:00", "date_accepted": "2009-06-12T10:00:00+03:00", "date_published": "2011-03-15T09:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43331/galley/32298/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43328, "title": "Beyond K's Specter: Chang-rae Lee’s \nA Gesture Life\n, Comfort Women Testimonies, and Asian American Transnational Aesthetics", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "This essay argues that Chang-rae Lee’s novel A Gesture Life exemplifies both the conceptual gains and the potential pitfalls of current Asian American literature’s transnationalism.

The final section, which recontextualizes Lee’s novel within current debates in Asian and Asian American Studies, argues against a paradigm of alterity vis-à-vis the comfort women and proposes instead a transnational aesthetic premised on the human.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Chang-rae Lee" }, { "word": "A Gesture Life" }, { "word": "comfort women" }, { "word": "Asian American Literature" }, { "word": "Transnationalism" }, { "word": "testimony" }, { "word": "Hannah Arendt" }, { "word": "banality of evil" }, { "word": "uncanny" }, { "word": "Repression" }, { "word": "aesthetics" }, { "word": "American literature" }, { "word": "American History (United States)" }, { "word": "Asian" }, { "word": "Asian American Studies" }, { "word": "Esthetics" }, { "word": "Ethics and Political Philosophy" }, { "word": "Literature in English, North America, ethnic and minority" }, { "word": "Women's Studies" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0p22m4tb", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Belinda", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Kong", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Bowdoin College", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2009-06-14T10:00:00+03:00", "date_accepted": "2009-06-14T10:00:00+03:00", "date_published": "2011-03-15T09:00:00+02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/jtas/article/43328/galley/32295/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 43326, "title": "Cosmopolitan Fantasies, Aesthetics, and Bodily Value: W. E. B. Du Bois's \nDark Princess\n and the Trans/Gendering of Kautilya", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "The recent turn to a transnational American literary cosmopolitanism, coupled with efforts to move beyond what Paul Gilroy calls “ethnic absolutes,” have generated a resurgence of interest in W. E. B. Du Bois’s 1928 romance novel, Dark Princess. In addition, the last two decades have witnessed tentative movements to bridge the gap between American ethnic studies and postcolonial studies. This essay begins with the premise that there are compelling reasons to reread Dark Princess in light of twenty-first century debates about postcolonialism and cosmopolitanism, but it also points to some of the hazards of reading the novel outside of the social and aesthetic politics of the decades between the two world wars. The main part of this paper is an attempt to address the gendered and sexualized body politics of Du Bois’s aesthetic practices through an analysis of his essay “Criteria of Negro Art” and his novel Dark Princess. Allusions in the novel to the fourth-century BCE Indian political philosopher Kautilya and his treatise Arthasâstra suggests that Du Bois’s naming of his princess, Kautilya, was neither accidental nor insignificant. This trans/gendering of Kautilya speaks to a gender and sexual politics inherent to German theories of the aesthetic, to which Du Bois remained wedded. Scholarly fantasies of cosmopolitanism tend to ignore the extent to which such fantasies depend upon ideologies of family and the reproductive bodies of women.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Cosmopolitan" }, { "word": "Fantasy" }, { "word": "aesthetics" }, { "word": "Bodily Value" }, { "word": "W.

This paper explores the ways in which Jhumpa Lahiri’s novel The Namesake and its cinematic adaptation by filmmaker Mira Nair challenge the erasure of South Asian American citizenship following 9/11. Recounting the journey of a young Bengali graduate student and his wife migrating to the US in the late 1960s, each text speaks back to the erasure of South Asian American citizenship through the materialization of time in space: while Lahiri foregrounds the state itself in producing the rhythms through which immigrants are assimilated into the nation, Nair creates a narrative world in which filmic space materializes many, and often competing, histories, unifying multiple temporalities and histories through the representations of space. I argue that the cinematic adaptation of The Namesake generates a new spatiotemporal state of affairs, one in which the iconography of 9/11 both challenges post-9/11 racial logics and destabilizes the singular, progressive, and institutionalized temporality through which Lahiri writes South Asian American immigrants back into nation.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word":

primarily perceived to be a product of national governments. However, while traditionally nation-centric policy formations still take precedence in international economic matters, the past decade has witnessed the remarkable growth of regional actors in policy creation. The first part of this paper analyzes the ascent of regional actors in the San Francisco Bay Area and its growing economic partnership with China. Organizations such as the Bay Area Council have capitalized on the region’s strengths, such as its entrepreneurial talents and richly diverse ethnic makeup, to promote economic ties with Chinese regions and businesses. In particular, three economic sectors—the ports, high technology, and green technology—have dominated the relationship between the San Francisco Bay Area and China. Moreover, this paper argues that not only have regional actors become increasingly prominent in policy creation, but also these policies have a positive feedback effect on the regional economy. This paper finds that the Bay Area’s relationship with China has generated tangible local benefits, including the creation of jobs and an expanded tax base, even during the current economic downturn.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "All rights reserved", "short_name": "Copyright", "text": "© the author(s).

The novel’s troubling discrepancy between the appearance and true nature of things calls into question the apparent success achieved by the title character and envisioned by others. To tease out the implications of this discrepancy, it is important to consider the novel’s representations of windows and newspapers—the media of modern perception through which the novel’s protagonists, Carrie Meeber and G.W. Hurstwood, view the city. Acts of window-gazing and newspaper-reading trigger idealized images of life that challenge each character to transform his or her fantasy into reality.
