Social Factors Associated with Chinese Administrative Offenses", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Since its founding the People's Republic of China has used various forms of administrative detention to rehabilitate administrative offenders, in particular drug users and prostitutes. A number of studies have focused on the undesirability of administrative detention in terms of its questionable legality and rationality. Very few studies, however, focus on its poor effectiveness in preventing re-offending and its contribution to high recidivism rates in China for certain offenses. This article first examines the true nature of the policy of administrative detention by looking at the policy's rationales of punishment, retribution and deterrence. In contrast to administrative detention, education, rehabilitation and correction based on the utilization of social capital have successfully contributed to a reduction in recidivism for administrative offenses. By reviewing the practice of the Chinese community correction program, this article concludes that compared to administrative detention, community correctional schemes that are filled with positive social capital may serve as the ideal substitute to rehabilitate Chinese administrative offenders.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords":

among economists and development specialists, including the World Bank. However, there has been relatively less work done on rule of law in MICs and the special issues MICs face in developing a functional legal system. This is preliminary attempt to understand some of issues facing MICs as they seek to establish rule of law. To keep the scope manageable given the wide diversity of MICs, I compare Eastern European MICs and China. Part II provides a brief introduction to MICs and general issues they face. Part III provides a broad empirical comparison of Eastern European countries, the Baltics and former soviet republics, and China. Parts IV to VI discuss rule of law issues in Eastern Europe, with comparisons to China, focusing on lustration issues, implementation gaps, and the very different performance of constitutional and regular courts. Part VII turns to recent debates about the role of courts in China, and the controversial crackdown on social and political cause lawyering.

However, it has traditionally received insubstantial attention within human rights scholarship. This article situates the right to freedom of association at work within human rights discourses. It looks at the status, scope and importance of the right as it has evolved in international human rights law. In so doing, a case is put that there are strong reasons for states to comply with the right to freedom of association not only in terms of international human rights obligations but also from the perspective of human dignity in the context of an interconnected world.\n \nA detailed case study is offered that examines the right to freedom of association in the Australian context. There has been a series of significant changes to Australian labor law in recent years. The Rudd-Gillard Labor government claimed that recent changes were to bring Australia into greater compliance with its obligations under international law. This policy was presented to electors as in sharp contrast to the Work Choices legislation of the Howard Liberal-National party coalition government.

Nearshore zones in the fresh-water, tidally influenced northwest delta were dominated by riprap, and contained sparse sections of tule beds, beaches, and riparian zones. A total of six beach seine sites and eight electrofish sites were sampled during winter 2001 along the Sacramento River, Steamboat Slough, Miner Slough, Prospect Island Marsh, Prospect Slough, and Liberty Island Marsh. Overall, fry densities were higher on the Sacramento River and Steamboat Slough and lower in Liberty and Prospect Island marshes. Chinook salmon fry were significantly larger in the Sacramento River than in Steamboat Slough during March. Highest densities of Chinook salmon fry were observed in shallow beaches than in riprap nearshore zones. Fry densities also increased with Secchi depth and richness of non-native predators, suggesting increased predation risk by opportunistic predators. Shallow nearshore environments in conveyance channels, such as Steamboat Slough and the Sacramento River, seem important for Chinook salmon fry rearing. Conversely, riprap in these channels could reduce fry rearing habitat. Although fry catch rates by electrofishing did not differ greatly among riparian, riprap, beach and tule nearshore zones, they were on average about one-third higher in beaches. Evaluating potential impacts of habitat quality on growth and survival of fry seems key to further assess and monitor restoration efforts in the delta.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

We re-constructed monthly time series of precipitation, outflow, and salinity for the northern reach. These include salinity at Port Chicago (since 1947), Beldons Landing (since 1929), and Collinsville (since 1921), Delta outflow (since 1929), and a San Francisco Estuary watershed precipitation index (since 1921). We decomposed data into seasonal, decadal, and trend components to clarify the superposition of variability drivers. With the longest time series over 1000 months, these are the longest data records in the estuary save for Golden Gate tide. We used the precipitation index to compare trends and variability in climate forcing to outflow and salinity trends before and after construction of the water projects and the Suisun Marsh Salinity Control Gate. We test the widely held conceptual model that water project reservoir and Delta export operations reduce seasonal and annual outflow variability. We found that the water projects influence the trend of the annual and some monthly means in outflow and salinity, but exert far less influence on variability. We suggest that climate is the primary variability driver at timescales between one-month and ~20 years.

Often the information is reduced to the form of numerical measures, on the logic that numbers are a convenient and understandable type of information to pass among the diverse groups of employees that make up a manufacturing operation. We investigated by means of interviews and observation how several numerical measures, ‘process capability indices’, were used in an automotive factory and how employees were trained to use them. We found that the typical introduction to the measures deployed statistical and algebraic symbolism as well as laborious manual calculations that did not appear to support employees’ understanding of the underlying mathematical relationships. These measures therefore failed to be ‘boundary objects’ – artifacts that inhabit different social worlds and satisfy the informational requirements of each. The goal of our subsequent design-based research was to design a representation of the process capability indices that would be easier to engage with than the existing formal symbolism used in shop floor calculations and in training. We did this by re-presenting relevant mathematical relationships in computer tools – technology-enhanced boundary objects (TEBOs) – developed in collaboration with company trainers. To evaluate our interaction with three trainers and 37 trainees in three courses in two factories, and the impact of the computer tools on practice, we followed the computer tools’ trajectory from the stage of co-design with the original car factory through to the stage at which the computer tools were used by factories beyond this research project.

While politically correct, is such an assertion true? Are players within African governments able to formulate development policy independently of global development IGOS (like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund) or are decisions made by African governments still largely underpinned by the wishes of hegemonic development institutions? This essay argues for the latter interpretation.\n\n\nUsing a Gramscian framework, I offer a case study of the World Bank's reaction to Leslye Obiora, the former Minister of Mines and Steel Development for the Federal Republic of Nigeria, when she rejected a $120 million World Bank loan that she deemed to be usurious. My thesis is that because of her rejection of the World Bank loans on behalf of Nigerian civil society, Obiora was thus viewed as a threat to the propagation of the World Bank’s hegemonic development ideology. A Gramscian organic crisis ensued, and, unable to ideologically co-opt her through the process of “transformismo,” the World Bank “rejected” Obiora in favor of a Minister more sympathetic to its pre-established development ideology. Due to their tendency to “reject” African elites who espouse alternative modalities of development for their nascent communities, I argue that the undemocratic nature of the International Financial Institutions leads African civil society to suffer an exclusion from the global development processes that are ostensibly intended for their benefit.\n\n\nThis essay begins by introducing Leslye Obiora and offers a brief explanation of the conditions surrounding her resignation from her post as Nigeria’s Minister of Mining and Steel Development. It next proceeds by introducing various Gramscian concepts and relating them to the sundry players in the contemporary political-economy relevant to an investigation of Dr. Obiora’s interactions with the World Bank. In conclusion, it explicitly explains how a Gramscian, neo-Marxist vision of African governments’ relationships with the World Bank and IMF may be said to have ultimately led to Dr. Obiora’s resignation from her Ministerial post.

Fifty-nine elementary schools, designated as Fine Arts Schools by the district, were organized as a Fine Arts School Network. The school district partnered with an external arts organization to deliver research-based, consistent and collaborative professional development to art, music, dance, and drama teachers over three years. This government-funded professional development initiative explored the impact of network-based intensive professional development for arts teachers in four specific areas: 1) their role in building community in their schools; their roles as community builders in their schools, 2) their role in building curriculum with non-arts teachers in their schools, 3) their role in building their own leadership capacities. The final area for investigation focused on the impact of network-based professional development for arts teachers on their home schools. Quantitative data, including surveys of participating arts teachers, and qualitative data, including curriculum projects, student work, online documentation templates, interviews and focus groups were collected and analyzed. Results indicated that arts teachers spent more time with their principals and with their non arts teacher colleagues as a result of the professional development they received. They also developed a deeper understanding of the value of an arts integration curriculum in which their own arts expertise contributes to the design of learning and teaching, particularly in the literacy areas of story elements, analytical writing, creative writing, and critique of arts experiences. The study also demonstrated how professional development contributed to arts teachers’ capacity to take leadership in their schools by serving on School Improvement teams, contributing to decisions regarding external arts partnerships, and implementing staff development. The study offered implications for schools districts regarding the importance of targeted professional development for arts specialists. Further, the study indicated roles for external arts partnership organizations in district-supported professional development, as opposed to a more familiar model of school-specific residencies.

Using the principles of behaviorism in conjunction with developmentally appropriate practice has helped young children to extend their knowledge in the visual arts. The Andy Warhol project was an extension of an earlier project where children were exposed to copies of famous art prints along with guided teacher questions to provoke interest and reflection. The thought-provoking questions prepared by the teacher were specific to each print in pursuit of helping children to obtain a more in-depth understanding. The teacher conversed about the artist and included appealing tidbits about his/her techniques for painting. The teacher documented the children’s comments and attached them to the print that was hung in the classroom at their eye level for further reference. With children gaining experiences with the visual arts through careful examination of replicas of famous artworks, the teachers speculated about using behavioral approaches such as direct instruction to scaffold children’s efforts of painting replicas. The goal of the subsequent visual arts project was to extend the current one by offering children additional opportunities to closely examine the print in order to re-produce it by using acrylic paints on a canvas. This addition of painting a print helped young children to focus on a task and lead to their sense of accomplishment and further their interest in the visual arts. Currently, the four-year-olds are studying and discussing the paintings of Andy Warhol: hence the name of the reproduction project. It was inspired by reading the book, Uncle Andy’s: A Faabbbulous visit with Andy Warhol by James Warhola. The benefits of this project are numerous.

However, it has received less attention in foreign/second contexts. This article explores how drama for learning can impact upon the relationships among attitudes, motivation and learning in French second language (FSL) classrooms. The authors describe a second language research project done in grade 9 and 10 classrooms based on the principles of drama for learning including play and make believe, learning in context, and ownership of learning. Global simulation, the particular form of drama for learning used in the project, involves a voyage of discovery undertaken by a group involving a final destination and an itinerary. During this second language journey, students act, react and interact to create meaningful individual and group experiences and incorporate cooperative learning principles. The approach also allows the facilitators to draw on Gardner’s multiple intelligence theory in order to structure activities that maximize students’ individual strengths. The research project included development and piloting of the global simulation module, assessment of the pilot as well as assessment of implications for its future use. Data gathered for assessment included student questionnaires and teacher interviews. Results of the project indicated that there were improvements in the learning environments, including an increased level of motivation on the part of the learners involved. The teachers also expressed a high degree of satisfaction with the approach, especially because of their involvement in the development and implementation of the material from the beginning, which appeared to give them a sense of ownership and empowered them in their professional growth. Students also appeared to become more active and engaged in their learning as a result of a sense of ownership over their drama productions. In general, the results suggest that drama for learning and specifically global simulation are viable approaches for grade 9 and 10 FSL classes.

Perspective", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Emergency department (ED) crowding is a multifactorial problem, resulting in increased ED waiting times, decreased patient satisfaction and deleterious domino effects on the entire hospital. Although difficult to define and once limited to anecdotal evidence, crowding is receiving more attention as attempts are made to quantify the problem objectively. It is a worldwide phenomenon with regional influences, as exemplified when analyzing the problem in Europe compared to that of the United States. In both regions, an aging population, limited hospital resources, staff shortages and delayed ancillary services are key contributors; however, because the structure of healthcare differs from country to country, varying influences affect the issue of crowding. The approach to healthcare delivery as a right of all people, as opposed to a free market commodity, depends on governmental organization and appropriation of funds. Thus, public funding directly influences potential crowding factors, such as number of hospital beds, community care facilities, and staffing. Ultimately ED crowding is a universal problem with distinctly regional root causes; thus, any approach to address the problem must be tailored to regional influences.\n\n\n[West J Emerg Med. 2009; 10:233-239].", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "none", "short_name": "none", "text": "", "url": "http://google.com" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "crowding" }, { "word": "emergency department" }, { "word": "Europe" }, { "word": "Delivery of Health care in Emergnecy Departments" }, { "word": "Emergency Medicine" } ], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4fd144vt", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Namita", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Jayaprakash", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "St. Vincent’s University Hospital, Department of Emergency Medicine, Dublin, Ireland", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Ronan", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "O'Sullivan", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Crumlin, Department of Emergency Medicine, Dublin, Ireland", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Tareg", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Bey", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, Department of Emergency Medicine, Orange, CA", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Suleman", "middle_name": "S", "last_name": "Ahmed", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Irvine", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Shahram", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Lotfipour", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, Department of Emergency Medicine, Orange, CA", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-10-05T04:00:00-03:00", "date_accepted": "2008-10-05T04:00:00-03:00", "date_published": "2009-11-01T05:00:00-02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/westjem/article/17068/galley/8626/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 17104, "title": "Emergency Department Patients with Psychiatric Complaints Return at Higher Rates than Controls", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Study objective: At our 35,000 visit/year emergency department (ED), we studied whether patients presenting to the ED with psychiatric complaints were admitted to the hospital at a higher rate than non-psychiatric patients, and whether these patients had a higher rate of reevaluation in the ED within 30 days following the index visit.\n\n\nMethods: We reviewed the electronic records of all ED patients receiving a psychiatric evaluation from January to February 2007 and compared these patients to 300 randomly selected patients presenting during the study period for non-psychiatric complaints. Patients were followed for 30 days, and admission rates and return visits were compared.\n\n\nResults: Two hundred thirty-four patients presented to the ED and were evaluated for psychiatric complaints during the study period. Twenty-four point seven percent of psychiatric patients were admitted upon initial presentation versus 20.7% of non-psychiatric patients (p = 0.258). Twenty-one percent of discharged psychiatric patients returned to the ED within 30 days versus 13.4% of discharged non-psychiatric patients (p=0.041).

As the program matured, “false-positive” (defined as no PCI or coronary artery occlusion upon PCI) field MI activations have been identified as a problem for the program.\n\n\nObjectives: To identify potentially correctable factors associated with false-positive EMS triage to PCI centers.\n\n\nMethods: This was a retrospective, outcome study of EMS 12-lead cases from February 2006 to June 2007. The study system exclusively used cardiac monitor internal interpretation algorithms indicating an acute myocardial infarction as the basis for triage. Indicators and variables were defined prior to the study. Data, including outcome, was from the Orange County EMS database, which included copies of 12-lead ECGs used for field triage. Negative odds ratios (OR) of less than 1.0 for positive PCI were the statistical measure of interest.\n\n\nResults: Five hundred forty-eight patients were triaged from the field for PCI. We excluded 19 cases from the study because of death prior to PCI, refusal of PCI, and co-morbid illness (sepsis, altered consciousness) that precluded PCI. Three hundred ninety-three (74.3%) patients had PCI with significant coronary lesions found. False-positive field triages were associated with underlying cardiac rhythm of sinus tachycardia [OR = 0.38 (95% CI 0.23, 0.62)]; atrial fibrillation [OR = 0.43 (95% CI = 0.20, 0.94)]; an ECG lead not recorded [OR = 0.39 (95% CI = 0.20, 0.76)]; poor ECG baseline [OR = 0.59 (95% CI = 0.25, 1.37)]; One of three brands of monitors used in the field [OR = 0.35 (95% CI = 0.21, 0.59)]; and female gender [OR = 0.50 (95% CI = 0.34, 0.75)]. Age was not associated with false-positive triage as determined by ordinal regression (p=1.00).\n\n\nConclusion: For the urban-suburban EMS field 12-lead program studied, age was not associated with false-positive triage. It was unexpected that female gender was associated with false-positive triage. False-positive triage from the field was associated with poor ECG acquisition, underlying rhythms of atrial fibrillation and sinus tachycardia, and one brand of 12-lead monitor.\n\n\n[West J Emerg Med. 2009;10(4):208-212]", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "none", "short_name": "none", "text": "", "url": "http://google.com" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "emergency medical services (EMS)" }, { "word": "Percutaneous Coronary Intervention" }, { "word": "acute myocardial infarction" }, { "word": "ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction" }, { "word": "electrocardiogram" }, { "word": "Emergency Medicine" } ], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9rh3q0rk", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Pamela", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Yamamoto Swan", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, Irvine, CA", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Beverly", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Nighswonger", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Orange County California Health Care Agency", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Gregory", "middle_name": "L", "last_name": "Boswell", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Emergency Medical Services, Orange County California Health Care Agency, Santa Ana, CA", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Samuel", "middle_name": "J.", "last_name": "Stratton", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, Department of Emergency Medicine, Orange, CA", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2009-04-15T04:00:00-03:00", "date_accepted": "2009-04-15T04:00:00-03:00", "date_published": "2009-11-01T05:00:00-02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/westjem/article/17043/galley/8614/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 17047, "title": "International Disaster Medical Sciences Fellowship: Model Curriculum and Key Considerations for Establishment of an Innovative International Educational Program", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "As recent events highlight, a global requirement exists for evidence-based training in the emerging field of Disaster Medicine.

The four urologic emergencies discussed are priapism, paraphimosis, testicular torsion, and Fournier’s gangrene. An overview is given for each, including causes, pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment, and new developments. The focus for priapism is on diagnosis and distinguishing high-flow from low-flow forms, as the latter requires emergent treatment. For paraphimosis, we describe various methods of relieving the stricture, from manual reduction to surgery in extreme cases. For testicular torsion, the most important factor in salvaging the testicle is decreasing time to treatment. This is accomplished through experience and understanding which signs and symptoms strongly suggest it, so that time-consuming tests are avoided. Lastly, Fournier’s gangrene is potentially fatal. While aggressive medical and surgical therapy will improve chances of survival and outcome, it is vital for the emergency department (ED) physician to diagnose Fournier’s. It often presents in the elderly, immunocompromised, or those with depressed mental status. The goal of this paper is to arm EPs with information to recognize urological emergencies and intervene quickly to preserve tissue, fertility, and life.\n\n\n[West J Emerg Med. 2009;10(4):281-287.]", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "none", "short_name": "none", "text": "", "url": "http://google.com" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Urology" }, { "word": "paraphimosis" }, { "word": "fournier's" }, { "word": "torsion" }, { "word": "priapism" }, { "word": "Emergency Medicine" } ], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2cj981j1", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Chad", "middle_name": "S", "last_name": "Kessler", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Jesse Brown VA Medical Center, Department of Emergency Medicine, Chicago, IL", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Julie", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Bauml", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2009-01-20T06:00:00-02:00", "date_accepted": "2009-01-20T06:00:00-02:00", "date_published": "2009-11-01T05:00:00-02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/westjem/article/17115/galley/8648/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 17071, "title": "Paramedics’ Ability to Perform Drug Calculations", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Background: The ability to perform drug calculations accurately is imperative to patient safety. Research into paramedics’ drug calculation abilities was first published in 2000 and for nurses’ abilities the research dates back to the late 1930s. Yet, there have been no studies investigating an undergraduate paramedic student’s ability to perform drug or basic mathematical calculations. The objective of this study was to review the literature and determine the ability of undergraduate and qualified paramedics to perform drug calculations.\n\n\nMethods: A search of the prehospital-related electronic databases was undertaken using the Ovid and EMBASE systems available through the Monash University Library. Databases searched included the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, CINAHL, JSTOR, EMBASE and Google Scholar, from their beginning until the end of August 2009. We reviewed references from articles retrieved.\n\n\nResults: The electronic database search located 1,154 articles for review. Six additional articles were identified from reference lists of retrieved articles. Of these, 59 were considered relevant. After reviewing the 59 articles only three met the inclusion criteria. All articles noted some level of mathematical deficiencies amongst their subjects.\n\n\nConclusions: This study identified only three articles. Results from these limited studies indicate a significant lack of mathematical proficiency amongst the paramedics sampled. A need exists to identify if undergraduate paramedic students are capable of performing the required drug calculations in a non-clinical setting.\n\n\n[WestJEM. 2009;10:240-243.]", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "none", "short_name": "none", "text": "", "url": "http://google.com" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Emergency Medical Technicians" }, { "word": "emergency medical services" }, { "word": "mathematics" }, { "word": "drug dosage calculations" }, { "word": "Emergency Medicine" } ], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9nm1b4cd", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Kathyrn", "middle_name": "J", "last_name": "Eastwood", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Monash University Department of Community Emergency Health and Paramedic Practice", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Mal", "middle_name": "J", "last_name": "Boyle", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Monash University Department of Community Emergency Health and Paramedic Practice", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Brett", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Williams", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Monash University Department of Community Emergency Health and Paramedic Practice", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2009-07-01T04:00:00-03:00", "date_accepted": "2009-07-01T04:00:00-03:00", "date_published": "2009-11-01T05:00:00-02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/westjem/article/17071/galley/8627/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 5269, "title": "Perceptual Learning in a Human Conditioned Suppression Task", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "The present experiment demonstrated a “perceptual learning” effect found in the animal literaturewith human participants. The common finding in animal work is that intermixed exposures to twostimuli prior to conditioning facilitates their subsequent discrimination on a generalization test morethan the same amount of exposure to the stimuli in a blocked arrangement. The method was asuppression task implemented in a video game. Participants learned to suppress a baseline response(mouse clicking) when a colored sensor (i.e., CS) predicted an attack (i.e., US). First, prior toconditioning, they received either intermixed pre-exposures to two sensor CSs, blocked preexposures,no pre-exposures, or pre-exposure to the individual visual elements of the CSs. Second, inconditioning, one of the sensor CSs was paired with an attack US. Finally, generalization ofsuppression to the other sensor CS was assessed. Pre-exposures to the sensor CSs reducedgeneralization relative to no-exposure at all, with intermixed pre-exposures producing the greatestreduction in generalization. The importance of the present work is that it reduces the possibleidiosyncrasy of existing results with humans that used evaluative-conditioning methods bydemonstrating the effect with a method that has been used to reproduce a variety of associativelearningphenomena and is easily amenable to associative-learning explanations", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Emergency department (ED) research assistants collected patient injury and helmet use information using a prospectively designed questionnaire. ED and hospital data were obtained from trauma registry and hospital records.\n\n\nResults: Seventy-two patients were injured in a terrain park, and 263 patients were injured on non-terrain park slopes. Patients injured in terrain parks were more likely to be male [68/72 (94%) vs. 176/263 (67%), p<0.0001], younger in age [23 ± 7 vs. 36 ± 17, p<0.0001], live locally [47/72 (65%) vs. 124/263 (47%), p=0.006], use a snowboard [50/72 (69%) vs. 91/263 (35%), p<0.0001], hold a season pass [46/66 (70%) vs. 98/253 (39%), p<0.0001], and sustain an upper extremity injury [29/72 (40%) vs. 52/263 (20%), p<0.001] when compared to patients injured on non-terrain park slopes. There were no differences between the groups in terms of EMS transport to hospital, helmet use, admission rate, hospital length of stay, and patients requiring specialty consultation in the ED.\n\n\nConclusions: Patients injured in terrain parks represent a unique demographic within winter resort patrons. Injury severity appears to be similar to those patients injured on non-terrain park slopes.\n\n\n[West J Emerg Med. 2009;10(4):257-262.]", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "none", "short_name": "none", "text": "", "url": "http://google.com" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "skiing" }, { "word": "snowboarding" }, { "word": "accident prevention" }, { "word": "snow park" }, { "word": "terrain park" }, { "word": "Emergency Medicine" } ], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2d1004db", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Craig", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Moffat", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Utah", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Scott", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "McIntosh", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Utah", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Jade", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Bringhurst", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Karen", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Danenhauer", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Nathan", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Gilmore", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Pittsburgh", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Christy", "middle_name": "L", "last_name": "Hopkins", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Utah", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2008-11-03T06:00:00-02:00", "date_accepted": "2008-11-03T06:00:00-02:00", "date_published": "2009-11-01T05:00:00-02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/westjem/article/17085/galley/8637/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 17112, "title": "The Back Alley Revisited: Sepsis after Attempted Self-Induced Abortion", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "While unsafe abortions have become rare in the United States, the practice persists. We present a 24-year-old female with a 21-week twin gestation who presented to the emergency department with complications of an attempted self-induced abortion.

We discuss unsafe abortions, risk factors, and the management of septic abortion. Prompt recognition by the emergency physician and aggressive management of septic abortion is critical to decreasing maternal morbidity and mortality.\n\n\n[West J Emerg Med. 2009;10(4):278-280.]", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "none", "short_name": "none", "text": "", "url": "http://google.com" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "abortion septic abortion sepsis self-induced abortion complications" }, { "word": "Emergency Medicine" } ], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2mx5w2gr", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Teresa", "middle_name": "A", "last_name": "Saultes", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Madigan Army Medical Center", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Diane", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Devita", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Madigan Army Medical Center", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Jason", "middle_name": "D", "last_name": "Heiner", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Madigan Army Medical Center", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2009-03-11T04:00:00-03:00", "date_accepted": "2009-03-11T04:00:00-03:00", "date_published": "2009-11-01T05:00:00-02:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/westjem/article/17112/galley/8647/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 5271, "title": "The Behavioral Development of Two Beluga Calves During the First Year of Life", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Currently, very little formal research exists regarding the behavioral development of beluga calves (\nDelphinapterus leucas\n). The behaviors and interactions of two beluga calves born into the care of humans were observed consistently from birth to 12 months. Changes in behavior were recorded continuously for 20 minutes for each mother-calf pair 2 to 4 times a week. As expected, the primary calf activity involved swimming with mother, which gradually decreased over the first year of life. Calves initiated the majority of their separations from and reunions with their mothers. Unexpectedly,the calves demonstrated an early independence and primary responsibility for proximity maintenance to their mothers. The calves also engaged in more solitary swims, object play, and interactions with each other across the year. In summary, the two calves followed developmental trends that were similar to each other and to other cetaceans in the care of humans.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
