Several Nuban villages sitting north of the High Dam were in no danger of inundation, and were not evacuated. The houses which the Nubians built and continue to build in these villages, distinctive and beautiful, continue to be cherished by their owners. Here I present photographs of the houses in the village of West Aswan, where I lived for 3 ½ years, showing traditional as well as more modern styles, to demonstrate that the extraordinary Nubian culture, ancient as it is, has not disappeared despite great change.</pre>\n<p><!--EndFragment--></p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

In the former Nubian villages, it was the task of a bride to decorate a special place, the so-called bride’s room, before the marriage. This activity was part of the extensive house-decoration, consisting foremost of wall paintings, which the women painted with earth colors on their home’s outer and inner walls. Their rich and often opulent adornment with three-dimensional objects made the Nubian bridal rooms particular. Homemade handiwork hung up on the walls or suspended from the ceilings formed the main feature of the room’s design. On top of this, a mixture of peculiar items was displayed. These could be anything the brides considered valuable and composed inventively into an artistic design, whether as an assemblage or as “objets trouvés”. The custom to furnish a bridal room in this manner was discontinued after the Nubians were moved to the new villages north of Aswan. The article is a part of my forthcoming publication “Colors of Nubia, the lost art of women’s house decoration”. </pre>\n<p><!--EndFragment--></p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

However, the construction of the High Dam in 1964 forced the displacement of Nubians from their homeland to another location completely different to the environment in which the Nubian culture arose and developed. In this research I examine the daily life in the Nubian village Abu Hor in Old and New Nubia as a case study to explore how the Nubians tried to regain the sense og being-at-home in the aftermath of their displacement. I use auto-ethnographic tools to explore the material and social techniques they had developed to create a sense of home in New Nubia. The research demonstrates how the displacement of Nubians and the changing spatial context have deeply affected their culture, and how they used and adapted their culture to overcome alienation feelings and displacement by remaking their homes and homeland in the new settlement.</pre>\n<p><!--EndFragment--></p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

The loss of their homes was a traumatic experience for most Nubians, as the house was more than just a physical object for them. These were valued spaces, where day-to-day existence, festivities, and family customs unfurled. The Nubian house was imbued with social importance, addressing the heredity of a family and a community. The resettlement that the families had to endure cut off the associations with these social and hereditary spaces, leaving a void that the new homes couldn't fill. This paper compares traditional old Nubian homescapes before relocation with the new governmental dwellings built for them following their forced displacement. I have focussed upon the village of Tomas wa 'Afya, which was located 220 kilometers south of the town of Aswan, discussing the history of the village, the houses that were built there, and the failures of the government's promises to the people. While the families that were displaced were deeply disappointed in the new area and houses, they were eventually able, through their resilience and resourcefulness, to retain a lot of the aspects and details of their heritage, habits, and traditions.</pre>\n<p><!--EndFragment--></p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

The impact of these projects led to economic hardships, male migration to urban areas for work, and women managing the Nubian houses. Despite these challenges, the Nubian community displayed resilience in rebuilding their villages. The text also examines the housing project initiated by the state for resettlement, known as \\\"New Nubia\", by the state but referred to unfavorably as \\\"*Al Tagheer*\\\" by Nubians. The planning and implementation of this project were criticized for not adequately considering the Nubian culture and community needs, resulting in dissatisfaction among residents. Here, I highlight how Nubians took matters into their own hands, making modifications to the state-built dwellings to align them with their cultural norms. Nubian women played a crucial role in these modifications and the construction of houses, displaying their resilience and adaptability.</pre>\n<p><!--EndFragment--></p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

This has been the case for thousands of years. Taking the ancient town of Amara West (c. 1250 BC--800 BC) and the modern residents of its environs as a case study, the procurement and application of painting materials and their social implications are considered, using archaeological evidence and recently conducted interviews. The ancient evidence includes paint on walls, pigments, paint palettes, grindstones, and painted coffins, samples of which were scientifically analysed to determine the pigments and binders used. Twelve interviews were conducted via translator with modern residents living near to Amara West about their use of paint in their houses, including how they collected painting materials, when painting took place, and who was responsible. Several paints were re-created with tools and materials that were used by the ancient population in order to experience the process and consider it from a sensory perspective. Taking all of this evidence as inspiration, several fictional passages have been added to attempt to imagine ancient events relating to paint making and use.</pre>\n<p><!--EndFragment--></p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

This included men and women of all ages. This is much higher than most other comparative studies on tibial squatting facets. Additionally, I reference previous strontium isotope analysis to speak to whether or not migrants or locals were more likely to squat. Both groups, were squatting with regularity.

The material was soaked in water for six hours to dissolve the hard mud and sand. Two metal sieves with a mesh size of 0.5 and 1 mm were used. The separated material was dried and examined under binoculars and for identification fresh seed was used as a reference collection and determination literature. Seven plant species were as seeds, fruits were extracted and identified. These include *Triticum aestivum, Hordeum vulgare, Sorghum bicolor, Setaria italica, Adansonia digitate, Acacia nilotica* and *Cyperus rotundus*. In addition, some large unidentified deposits of glumes of wild grasses (of the Poaceae family) were presented in the samples from the four sites. Some animal dung and insect remains were separated during the sorting processing of the plant macro-remains. The archaeobotanical evidence from these four Christian mudbrick sites in El Mahas region provided evidence of the economy and flora landscape in this area. This flora can be divided into three types, i.e. riverine wild flora, cultivated flora, and wild trees.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

A diagnosis of acute flaccid paralysis secondary to cervical trauma was made and treated at the first hospital; however, she developed respiratory distress and was transferred to our centre. Clinical examination and computed tomography ruled out cervical cord injury. A diagnosis of neurotoxic envenomation was considered, given our centre’s high snakebite burden and the symptom of descending flaccid paralysis. Despite initiating antivenom and supportive treatment, the patient died. As the death was sudden and unexplained, medicolegal autopsy was done. Meticulous examination revealed a suspicious mark over the right foot. Chemical analysis on a skin sample from the site tested positive for snake venom, confirming envenomation.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: This case highlights the diagnostic challenge posed by atypical presentations of neurotoxic snakebite, especially in the absence of a clear history. In endemic areas, flaccid paralysis should prompt clinical suspicion of snakebite. Early recognition and timely administration of antivenom are crucial to prevent fatal outcomes.

A striking finding on arrival was the deep purple discoloration of her urine in the Foley bag, consistent with PUBS. Additionally, she was tachycardic and had extensive, unstageable pressure ulcers. Laboratory studies revealed leukocytosis, lactic acidosis, and acute kidney injury. Imaging<br>suggested sacral osteomyelitis, stercoral colitis, and aspiration pneumonia. Blood cultures grew <em>Streptococcus dysgalactiae</em>, and she was treated empirically with broad-spectrum antibiotics. After goals-of-care discussions, she was transitioned to hospice and died shortly after discharge.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: While purple urine bag syndrome is often benign, its presence should prompt clinicians to evaluate for serious underlying disease, particularly in debilitated or high-risk patients. It is classically associated with chronic catheterization, alkaline urine, and infections involving organisms such as <em>Providencia stuartii</em>, <em>Klebsiella pneumoniae</em>, and <em>Proteus mirabilis</em>.

El catalán es la lengua predominante en el paisaje lingüístico transgresor de Sant Cugat del Vallès, pero su presencia es baja en los signos vulgares y amorosos en ambas ciudades. El castellano y el inglés predominan en los signos que abordan estos temas. Por su parte, el catalán prevalece en los signos de contenido político y feminista. En conjunto, los resultados sugieren que, si bien la demografía lingüística de una ciudad puede favorecer la visibilidad de una lengua minorizada como el catalán en el paisaje lingüístico transgresor, dicha lengua puede tener una presencia reducida en registros vulgares debido a ideologías lingüísticas subyacentes.

I argue that Cherner’s work is a foundational and revolutionary contribution to Spanish Naturalism primarily for its narratological experimentation within the novela lupanaria (brothel novel) tradition. Though the novel follows some conventions of Naturalist fiction, it simultaneously resists and expands the boundaries of these conventions through innovative narrative techniques, layered narration, and an implicit critique of gender roles and patriarchal society in the novel’s structure itself. Rather than merely depicting the inevitability of social determinism, María Magdalena interrogates it by foregrounding a female voice—albeit mediated through male narrators—and exploring the limitations imposed on women within a rigid moral and social order. Through this complex interplay of narrative voices, pseudonymity and framing devices, Cherner challenges the objective approach of Naturalist literature, introducing ambiguity and subjectivity into a genre traditionally dominated by male scientific authority. In doing so, Cherner’s novel can be considered as pioneering in its own style within Spanish Naturalism. </p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

The review highlights studies comparing ED use patterns between periods of disaster and non-disaster for specific disaster types, including hurricanes, wildfires, floods, winter storms, and earthquakes, as well as studies that identify disaster-mediated changes in ED visits among specific populations, including the elderly, individuals experiencing homelessness, children and youth with special health care needs, and individuals with chronic medical and psychiatric conditions.

These patients often face delays in care, including prolonged wait times and extended length of stay (LOS), contributing to ED crowding, delayed treatment, and increased mortality. Numerous studies have investigated interventions to reduce LOS and prevent ED visits for patients with cancer. However, a systematic overview of these interventions is currently lacking. In this review we aimed to present interventions that optimize input, throughput and output in ED care by reducing ED LOS or ED visits for patients with cancer.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods: </strong>We searched five electronic library databases: Medline ALL via Ovid; Embase.com; Web of Science Core Collection; the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials via Wiley; and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria for this review were as follows: 1) research on (a subset of) patients with cancer; 2) conducted in or in collaboration with the ED; 3) the introduction of an intervention aimed at optimizing ED input, throughput, and output; and 4) performance of the intervention was measured using outcomes, such as ED LOS, number of ED visits or hospitalizations, use of acute-care services, or time to antibiotics.</p>\n<p><strong>Results: </strong>The literature search yielded 11,357 articles. After removing duplicates, 7,315 unique articles remained for screening. Of these, 109 were selected for detailed abstract review. Following this second screening, 35 articles underwent full-text analysis, and 16 articles met all inclusion criteria. These studies identified four categories of interventions: scoring systems (n=5); dedicated cancer urgent care facilities (n=5); protocolized care (n=3); and staffing optimization (n=3). Among scoring systems, use of the Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale reduced ED visits (relative rate (RR) = 0.92) and hospitalizations (RR = 0.86), while the Clinical Index of Stable Febrile Neutropenia score showed higher specificity (98.3%) than the Multinational Association for Supportive Care in Cancer score (54.2%) for identifying low-risk febrile neutropenia.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>We identified four categories of intervention that could potentially reduce ED visits and ED LOS, of which scoring systems showed the most potential.

Despite its importance, little is known about how operational factors in the emergency department (ED) impact formal complaints. In this study we aimed to identify encounter-level operational characteristics associated with the risk of formal patient complaints. </p>\n<p><strong>Methods</strong>: We conducted a retrospective matched-cohort study of ED encounters between October 2023–December 2024 at three EDs affiliated with a large academic health system. Each complaint case was matched to three non-complaint cases (3:1 matching) based on age, sex, race/ethnicity, acuity score, and chief complaint. We used logistic regression to assess the associations between operational factors and the likelihood of submitting a formal complaint. A Bonferroni correction was applied for multiple comparisons with statistical significance set at P < .005. </p>\n<p><strong>Results</strong>: Of 246,983 ED visits, 476 (0.19%) formal complaints were submitted. These were matched with 1,428 non-complaint cases. Baseline characteristics, which included age, sex, race/ethnicity, primary insurance, and chief complaint, did not differ, by design, between groups. Analysis revealed that ED length of stay ≥ 12 hours (odds ratio OR 3.12; 95% CI, 2.34-4.18) and an average of more than one ED visit per month (2.00; 1.45-2.73) were significantly associated with increased odds of filing a complaint. In contrast, any imaging performed during the visit (0.43; 0.35-0.54), hospital admission (0.72; 0.57-0.90), and presenting to the ED during a high-volume time (0.47; 0.33-0.67) were significantly associated with decreased odds of filing a complaint. </p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Length of stay > 12 hours and frequent ED visits were associated with a significantly increased complaint risk. Any form of diagnostic imaging, admission to the hospital, and presenting to the ED during a high-volume period were associated with fewer complaints. These findings offer ED and hospital leadership insights on the patient experience and highlight that improving capacity constraints for all patients can have downstream benefits for those who submit formal complaints.</p>", "language": "eng", "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.

Early recognition in the emergency department (ED) enables identification of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, guides antihypertensive and diuretic therapy, and facilitates timely cardiology referral to reduce morbidity and readmissions. Prior studies show emergency physicians (EP) can diagnose diastolic dysfunction with point-of-care ultrasound using mitral valve inflow velocities and tissue Doppler indices, although quantitative measurements are time-consuming. This study evaluates whether EPs can accurately diagnose and grade diastolic dysfunction based solely on visualization of mitral valve inflow velocities and tissue Doppler wave forms.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> After a focused training session, EPs (postgraduate year 1-3 residents, ultrasound fellows, and attendings) were randomized to review archived echocardiograms obtained by certified technicians. The EPs visually assessed echocardiograms for diastolic dysfunction (grades I-III) and whether they were considered “severe” (grade III). Their interpretations were then compared with a cardiologist’s gold-standard readings.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Twenty-three EPs interpreted 100 echocardiograms containing 25 of each grade. Overall accuracy for exact grading was 54.8%. Ultrasound attendings scored highest (70.0%), followed by non-ultrasound fellows (55.0%), attendings (54.0%), and residents (52.9%). For identification of any diastolic dysfunction, the EPs had a sensitivity of 84.6% (95% CI, 78.5-89.5%), specificity of 44.8% (95% CI, 31.7-58.5%), positive likelihood ratio (+LR) 1.53 (95% CI, 1.21-1.95), and negative likelihood ratio (-LR) 0.34 (95% CI, 0.22-0.54).

The South China Sea serves as a proof-of-concept: the segmented, oblique extension observed there aligns with zones of mechanically weaker crust, reflecting the underlying inherited thermal heterogeneity.<br>These results highlight that crustal-scale tectonic features can emerge from steady-state thermal conditions, independently of transient anomalies. They provide a quantitative framework linking inherited thermal structure to observable deformation patterns. More broadly, our study suggests that laterally heterogeneous heat production offers a physically motivated alternative to traditional exponential-decay models, better capturing the spatial complexity and persistence of lithospheric thermal structure.<br>By emphasizing the crustal imprint of thermal inheritance, we demonstrate that radiogenic heat variations are a fundamental control on strain localization and tectonic segmentation. This approach opens a new perspective on how long-lived thermal heterogeneities shape continental deformation and the architecture of lithospheric structures over hundreds of millions of years.</p>", "language": "eng", "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.

The United States Supreme Court has had multiple opportunities to apply its precedents on common-law torts, statutory crimes, and administrative regulations to copyright, trademark, and the right of publicity, but it has failed to do so. Indeed, the Court has tripled down on a definitional or internal approach that virtually prohibits First Amendment scrutiny of injunctions or damages against infringing speech in copyright disputes.</p>\n<p>This Article explores how the Supreme Court has not carefully considered a constitutional right to engage in commentary in its intellectual property jurisprudence. Cases like <em>Harper & Row</em>, <em>Campbell</em>, <em>Warhol</em>, <em>Jack Daniels</em>, and potentially <em>Elster</em> introduced a necessity test, which helps determine whether imitation of a protected work or personal name should be a free-speech right. Despite different fact patterns and legal theories, cutting across the copyright trademark divide, two of these cases involved First Amendment rights. <em>Harper & Row</em> addressed whether reproduction of excerpts of a United States president’s memoirs or given name was truly necessary to a speaker’s message, and <em>Elster</em> alluded to whether alternative means of expression existed to the use of a former president’s name as the trademark of a t-shirt company. In cases involving commentary on works or brands not connected to public officials, a similar dynamic arose in <em>Campbell</em>, <em>Warhol</em>, and <em>Jack Daniels</em>. While <em>Warhol</em> did not reference free speech, it should have. A right of fair comment could have improved the rulings in each of these cases by focusing on speakers’ and listeners’ interests; the First Amendment’s drafting and intent; and doctrines of viewpoint and content discrimination, overbreadth, vagueness, and chilling effects.</p>\n<p>Fair comment is a familiar principle from libel and slander law and it has been expanded to right of privacy cases in the Supreme Court and to right of publicity cases in the state supreme courts and lower federal courts. One issue is how far designers, artists, sculptors, and brand managers—like those in <em>Warhol</em>, <em>Elster</em>, and <em>Jack Daniels</em>—may go in making fun of images, names, or designs that are iconic, heavily commodified, or even rare or banal. In a more complex statement, freedom of opinion needs to be preserved from strategic deployments of copyright or trademark rights against quite dissimilar art or designs that criticize, comment upon, or parody famous images, trademarks, or trade dress, in a manner that would not be very confusing. Just as fair comment in tort and state statutory cases permits taking some liberties with the reputations, created facts, and messages of other persons, fair comment in federal statutory cases could involve two connected inquiries: whether an alleged infringer knowingly or recklessly violated another’s rights, and whether the reasonably prudent consumer would be confused in trademark disputes or perceive the same “meaning” or “aesthetics” between two or more “works” in copyright ones. The function of these inquiries is to implement the First Amendment’s overbreadth protections against chilling effects, thereby ensuring a wide breathing space for cultural and social comment.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "All rights reserved", "short_name": "Copyright", "text": "© the author(s).

Such models are estimated to cost less than ED encounters but may be more costly than traditional ambulatory services. However, mobile integrated health is not reimbursed by most payors, and its operational costs are poorly understood. Our objective if this study was to estimate the costs of delivering acute care services through a mobile integrated health program.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> This study was performed at an urban academic tertiary care center with a hospital-affiliated emergency medical services agency in which a mobile integrated health program is embedded. Home visits are conducted by paramedics who collaborate with a remotely located, actively engaged physician to evaluate and treat patients. We compiled cost data derived from real-world mobile integrated health patient encounters to account for all the resources needed to perform acute care visits. Mobile integrated health visits were categorized as basic, involving lower complexity evaluations with limited diagnostics, or advanced, which include higher acuity care with intravenous medications and multiple diagnostic studies. We used Monte Carlo simulations to provide probabilistic estimates of the cost per visit of mobile integrated health-facilitated care. </p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Using a Monte Carlo simulation with 1,000 iterations, we established cost estimates for basic and advanced service categories of mobile integrated health services. The median cost of a basic call is $550 (90% CI [$512–$676]), and $1400.00 for an advanced call (90% CI [$810–$1,813]). </p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This project, which generated real-world cost estimates for mobile integrated health programs delivering acute care services, offers essential context for policymakers and payors evaluating sustainable reimbursement models. We estimate that mobile integrated health services cost more than the mean cost of most outpatient clinic visits ($160) but remain substantially less expensive than emergency department visits ($2,715) or inpatient admissions ($24,680).

Electrocardiogram (ECG) provides valuable insights into the cardiovascular status of sepsis patients and may guide early interventions. However, comprehensive data on ECG patterns in sepsis patients within the emergency department (ED) is limited. In this study we aimed to identify common ECG rhythms and patterns in sepsis patients presenting to the ED and analyze their association with poor clinical outcomes, including intensive care unit (ICU) admission, prolonged hospital stay (> 14 days), and in-hospital mortality.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> We conducted a retrospective observational study using data from 3,598 adult sepsis patients presenting to the ED of Srinagarind Hospital, Khon Kaen, Thailand, between January–December 2023. ECG abnormalities were extracted from the automated ECG interpretation system. Cardiologists reviewed only ECGs flagged as potential acute infarction or ST elevation to confirm acute coronary syndrome patterns. We analyzed associations between ECG abnormalities and clinical outcomes using univariate logistic regression models.</p>\n<p><strong>Results: </strong>Common ECG rhythms in sepsis patients included sinus rhythm (41.7%), sinus tachycardia (39.0%), and atrial fibrillation/flutter (8.8%). The automated algorithm identified prolonged QT intervals (54.4%) and ST elevation in 10.4% of patients; however, only 1.7% met cardiologist-confirmed criteria for acute coronary syndrome. Compared with patients with better outcomes, those with poor outcomes more frequently had atrial fibrillation/flutter (14.9 vs. 7.5%), new-onset atrial fibrillation/flutter (6.0 vs. 2.8%), QT prolongation (61.6 vs. 52.9%), and abnormal T waves (10.9 vs. 8.4%), corresponding to odds ratios of 2.19 (95% CI, 1.77-2.69), 2.24 (1.50-3.28), 1.43 (1.20-1.70), and 1.34 (1.01-1.76), respectively.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Certain ECG abnormalities in sepsis patients are associated with adverse clinical outcomes.

Recent advances in patient monitoring systems have the potential to improve outcomes by providing real-time data and predictive insights, which are particularly valuable in prehospital and resource-limited settings.

Two reviewers independently screened studies, and discrepancies were resolved by a senior author. Of 217 studies identified in the search, 40 met the proposed inclusion criteria.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Compared to standard platforms, wearable and contactless systems for patient monitoring demonstrated high accuracy but with delayed responsiveness and less reliable temperature measurements. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based platforms consistently outperformed well-accepted scoring systems in predicting outcomes such as mortality, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and clinical decompensation. In this review we summarize proposals for prototypes of integrated patient monitoring systems that combine biosensors, AI algorithms, global positioning system, and wireless communication designed to facilitate triage in prehospital settings, and we then compare their components. Various platforms were piloted and demonstrated minimal disruption to workflow and positive user feedback, although most lacked comprehensive cost analyses. </p>\n<p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> Emerging patient monitoring system technologies may enhance remote triage and care delivery, particularly in resource-limited settings. However, significant barriers remain, including cost, limited testing in real-world environments, and the lack of higher tiers of evidence.

These fractures often require reduction and immobilization, with different modalities to provide analgesia. Our objective in this study was to summarize the management for distal radius fracture reductions in the real world of community and academic EDs.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> Following the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) and retrospective chart review guidelines for cohort studies, we identified adult visits for isolated distal radius fractures over a four-year period across three academic and 18 community hospital EDs from more than 490,000 per annum total visits. Visits were grouped by whether they were reduced in the ED. Reductions were further categorized by use of ultrasound-guided nerve block (UGNB), procedural sedation, or hematoma block. We recorded patient demographics, including age, sex, race and ethnicity, and Emergency Severity Index scores. Our primary outcome was patient-reported pain scores (0-10 scale) at presentation and prior to disposition. Secondary outcomes were total milligrams of morphine equivalents administered, ED length of stay and 30-day ED return rates. We used Kruskal-Wallis (numeric) and chi-squared or Fisher exact (categorical) tests to compare characteristics.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> There were 3,642 total patients with distal radius fractures, and 2,608 (71.6%) met inclusion criteria. Of the patients included, 695 (26.6%) received fracture reduction. Of the reductions performed, 522 (75.1%) received hematoma blocks, 151 (21.7%) received procedural sedation, and 22 (3.2%) received UGNB. The majority of UGNB (72.7%, n = 16), procedural sedation (64.2%, n = 97), and hematoma block reductions (51.3%, n = 268) were performed in community hospital EDs. Patient age was greatest for the hematoma block (median 67 [57, 76]), followed by no ED reduction (65 [51, 77]), UGNB (65 [51, 68]), and procedural sedation (62 [43, 72]) (P < .01 for the four-group comparison). The majority of patients (93.7%) were White and not Hispanic or Latino (94.5%). There was no difference in treatment type by race or ethnicity. Pain score reduction between arrival and the last score reported in the ED was statistically greatest for the procedural sedation group (8 to 4, difference of -4 [-6, -2]), followed by UGNB (8 to 5, difference of -3 [-5, 0]), hematoma block (8 to 5, difference of -3 [-5, 0]) and no reduction (7 to 5, difference of -2 [-4, 0]), (P < .001 for the four-group comparison). Median total milligrams of morphine equivalents was higher for UGNB (7.5 [6.8, 13.9]) and procedural sedation (7.5 [2.0, 14.0]), as compared to hematoma block (6.7 [0, 13.0]) and no ED reduction (4.0 [0.0, 7.5]) (P < .001 for the four-group comparison). Length of stay in the ED was longest for the UGNB group (314 minutes [226, 432]) when compared to hematoma block (275 minutes [204, 370]), procedural sedation (258 minutes [192, 350]) (P = .08), and no reduction (190 [127, 290]) (P < .001 for the four-group comparison). Thirty-day return rates were 16.6% for procedural sedation, 15.1% for hematoma block, 12.3% for no reduction, and 9.1% for UGNB (P = .18).</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Most distal radius fracture reductions were performed with a hematoma block. Ultrasound-guided nerve block was a less commonly used alternative to procedural sedation and was performed predominantly in the community hospital ED setting. Procedural sedation and UGNB were most effective at reducing pain. Triage severity scores, milligrams of morphine equivalents administered, and length of stay were similar between UGNB and procedural sedation. </p>", "language": "eng", "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.

But as revealed by recent controversies over migrants bused from Texas to cities like New York and Chicago, immigration law is not only concerned with who may cross the country’s borders, but also where people go within those borders. Immigration law, broadly understood, is not limited to questions of admission and deportation. It also shapes the geographic dispersal of refugees and immigrant workers throughout the United States. </p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 40px;\">This Article contends that a complete account of immigration law requires understanding the ways in which it regulates the internal migration of noncitizens. This account involves grappling with immigration law both within the federal statutory scheme, and across numerous state and local regulations of undocumented immigrants. Recognizing this internal dimension of immigration law today also reveals a much longer history, stretching back to the country’s earliest controls over entry from abroad. Exploring this history reveals a wealth of alternative conceptions of how state and federal agencies might approach questions of internal migration. In particular, this Article provides an original analysis of a Progressive-era experiment with a federal immigrant labor “distribution” agency: the Division of Information, created within the Bureau of Immigration in 1907.</p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 40px;\">Recovering this largely forgotten history suggests how federal immigration law might be reformed to address challenges of internal migration more directly. Cooperative initiatives between federal and state agencies can increase federal capacity to respond to humanitarian emergencies. Such cooperation may also serve to align federal immigration law more closely with local economic, industrial, and labor policy needs. In contrast, failure to recognize and respond to immigration law’s internal dimension risks inviting a repetition of the “migrant crisis” of the Biden years.</p>", "language": null, "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7086f70b", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Jacob", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Hamburger", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2026-02-10T18:49:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "9.

For years, commentators and public interest groups have claimed that video gameplay patents are stifling innovation—concerns that have garnered little attention from scholars or courts. That may soon change. Recent literature speculates that gameplay patents are rare and that challenges in acquiring them have forced companies to prioritize “copy-resistant” game elements such as high-definition graphics and sprawling open worlds. But advances in artificial intelligence are making such elements increasingly easy to recreate, prompting a renewed interest in gameplay innovation and a growing urgency to assess the merits of gameplay patents. This Article provides the empirical and analytical foundation for understanding the existence and merits of video gameplay patents. It trains a naive Bayes classifier to provide novel insight into gameplay patenting trends, uses case studies to identify distinguishing features of desirable video gameplay patents, and shows how recent Federal Circuit decisions impose stricter patentability requirements for video gameplay than the gameplay of physical games. In sharp contrast to the prevailing view among commentators, this Article argues that certain video gameplay patents can benefit the industry. It further argues that adopting the analysis from physical gameplay cases would create a new class of beneficial video game patents, providing critical protections to an industry under threat.</p>", "language": null, "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5gx3t8rv", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Gregory", "middle_name": "D.", "last_name": "Schwartz", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2026-02-10T02:07:00Z", "render_galley": { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ucilr/article/62937/galley/48631/download/" }, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ucilr/article/62937/galley/48631/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 62283, "title": "Archiving of Persian Classical Music in the Past Century", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "<p>The archiving of Persian classical music (PCM) through recording and transcription has developed significantly over the past century, shaped by political, technological, and cultural forces. While oral transmission has always been central to PCM, early twentieth-century efforts began to document the tradition through both sound recording and musical notation. These practices gained momentum under the Pahlavi dynasty, when modernization initiatives and growing nationalism emphasized the preservation of Iranian cultural heritage. Advancements in recording technologies, such as vinyl and cassette tapes, made it possible to capture performances and transmit them beyond ephemeral gatherings. A pivotal institutional development was the founding of the Markaz-e Hefz-o Esha’eh-ye Musiqi-ye Irāni (‘Center for Preservation and Propagation of Iranian Music’) by Dariush Safvat in the 1970s, fully supported by National Iranian Radio and Television. The Center combined oral pedagogy with recording and archiving, training a new generation of musicians who would continue these efforts after the 1979 revolution. As the Islamic Republic imposed new restrictions on musical performance, much of the archival work shifted to private spaces, but eventually resurfaced through private initiatives and independent publishers. The improvisatory and context-sensitive nature of PCM poses challenges for archival methods, as recordings and transcriptions often remove the music from its social and spiritual contexts. Nonetheless, a hybrid model has emerged in which oral transmission, documentation, and performance coexist. In recent decades, there has also been increased attention to power dynamics in music preservation, leading to more inclusive efforts to archive regional, minority, and sacred traditions. Thus, the history of PCM archiving reflects not only technological and institutional shifts but also evolving aesthetic and ethical </p>", "language": "eng", "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.

Having learned the trade of printing and bookselling from his father, he officially entered the world of books in 1920, at the age of seventeen, by founding the Etifāq Reading Room in Tehran. From that point forward, he engaged continuously and diversely in fields such as librarianship, magazine publishing, printing, editing, and publishing. By establishing institutions like Kitābkhānah-yi Sharq (Eastern Library), Majallah-yi Sharq (Eastern Magazine), Chāpkhānah-yi Sharq (Eastern Printing House), and especially the Kulālah-yi Khāvar publishing house, he played a major role in promoting reading culture and reprinting classical and folkloric Persian literature. Ramaẓānī was also the founder of Kitāb (The Book), the first specialized periodical on books in Iran. By listing and reviewing publications from various Iranian publishers, this journal played a vital role in documentation and shaping the publishing landscape of the time. It can be considered the starting point of professional bibliographic reporting in the Iranian publishing industry. In addition to his wide-ranging activities in the realm of publishing and print, Ramaẓānī dreamed of establishing a large and comprehensive library. Over the years, he gathered a unique and valuable collection of manuscripts, printed books, newspapers, and other non-book print materials. Although financial difficulties and illness prevented him from realizing this dream, parts of his collection, particularly newspapers and magazines, were donated to the University of Tehran Library, while the main portion of his manuscripts and printed books was gifted to the Grand Mosque Library of Qom (Masjid-i A‘ẓam) in Qom. This collection was assembled at a time when public libraries in Iran were scarce and information infrastructure was underdeveloped. Ramaẓānī’s importance lies not only in his role as a publisher and bookseller but also in his pioneering efforts as a collector. He acted as a bridge connecting the printed heritage of the Qajar era with the Pahlavi period and later generations. This article seeks to revisit his life and contributions, focusing on his role in preserving Iran’s textual heritage, the methods he employed in collection-building, and the historical significance of his efforts within the cultural and institutional context of the time. It also examines the current state of preservation, organization, and accessibility of the collections he donated to the University of Tehran and the Grand Mosque Library.</p>", "language": "eng", "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.

However, researching the Middle East in ‘Western’ governmental archives (WGAs) – i.e., within the (re)productive heart of past states’ hegemonic and adverse narratives on the Middle East – warrants theoretical and methodological discussion. In this article, I first establish that despite the issue of WGAs’ Western and governmental bias, these funds still constitute a unique resource for MENA research, especially on topics such as Middle Eastern diasporas, foreign relations, or history. I also contend that continuing to engage with the Middle East through sources external to the region will help reaffirm the deep relationality of the Middle Eastern construct and, crucially, stave off the risks of a ‘siloization’ of MENA studies. Heeding still the postcolonial critique of the narratives embedded in such sources, I then examine the biases likely to shape the content of WGAs, covering in turn the biases related to WGAs’ archival dimension, their governmental character, and their Western situatedness. In the third section, building on these observations, I emphasise the role of critical analysis, cross-referencing, and rigorous transparency as ways to compose with the inescapable biases embedded in WGAs. I conclude the article by proposing a practical introduction to three of France’s governmental archival institutions, emphasising the difficulties of access international researchers and MENA scholars may face, and offering practical recommendations for making the most of these archives, in a timely fashion.</p>", "language": "eng", "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.

The Hijabi Librarians, a collective of Muslim women youth services librarians, operate at the intersection of library science, critical pedagogy, and public scholarship. Their work intervenes in cultural and archival spaces where SWANA, diasporic, and Muslim identities are frequently misrepresented or erased. Amid the intensifying crisis in the region and its impact on communities across the diaspora, the collective’s advocacy for nuanced #OwnVoices representation in children’s and young adult literature takes on renewed urgency. Their interventions address enduring representational gaps while affirming the political, educational, and ethical power of youth literature. The article foregrounds the imaginative and empathetic potential of youth literature to serve as windows, mirrors, and sliding glass doors, central metaphors in multicultural literacy, that enable readers to understand, connect with, and stand in solidarity with others. This literature is not only for children; it is for adults as well - creators, librarians, educators - who seek to preserve a sense of wonder, and resist the normalization of dehumanization. In a climate of escalating educational censorship that demands we relinquish imagination for political expedience, the defense of children's literature becomes a radical act: it resists the colonization of imagination and refuses to concede empathy, possibility, or humanity itself. The Hijabi Librarians’ model aligns with and expands MELA’s mission through anti-censorship work, public programming, evaluation toolkits, metadata ethics, and bibliographic equity. The article advances a coalition-oriented model of Middle East librarianship attuned to diasporic complexity, epistemic justice, and the ethical stewardship of children’s literature as a transformative cultural force for both young readers and adult practitioners.</p>", "language": "eng", "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.

This study summarizes his career and assesses his impact on library education and practice in Iran and his later cultural contributions in the United States. Using a descriptive–analytical approach, the paper reviews Ebrami’s primary works (publications, theses, translations) and secondary sources (scholarly articles, archival records). Information was organized into education, professional appointments, and major publications. A historical-content analysis traced his evolving influence. Ebrami earned a B.A. in economics from the University of Tehran in 1956 and authored Sattar Khan: The National Commander (1973). At the Central Bank of Iran, he created its specialized library and promoted economic research. Supported by the bank, he completed an M.L.S. at the University of Pittsburgh under Andrew Osborne and a Ph.D. at the University of Chicago under Allen Kent and J.E. Diley. Upon returning, he established library science programs at Tehran and Shiraz Universities. After the 1979 Revolution, he moved to the United States, producing influential works on Jewish culture and history. From 1995 until his death, he led the Habib Levy Cultural Foundation. Hooshang Ebrami’s interdisciplinary expertise and international training were instrumental in shaping Iran’s library science education and infrastructure. His pioneering programs, specialized libraries, and extensive scholarship continue to guide and inspire librarians and researchers globally.This article based on archival sources, analysis of published texts, and an examination of institutional roles examines Hooshang Ebrami’s contribution to the development of modern librarianship in Iran and the identity transformations associated with his migration to the United States. The findings suggest that Ebrami played a substantial role in transferring professional practices to Iran and that, after migration, his cultural activism combined retained professional dimensions with shifts in the configuration of his social identity.</p>", "language": "eng", "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.

The findings reveal that Afghan text editors often faced considerable challenges, most notably limited and difficult access to manuscripts preserved in international libraries. As a result, they frequently relied on locally available sources, which were sometimes unverified or based on single manuscript copies. Furthermore, core components of modern critical editing such as comprehensive manuscript description, systematic collation, and documentation of variant readings were often overlooked.

For the publicly insured, recipients forgo work, marriage, and security in old age to meet strict income and asset tests. People with disabilities, their medical needs pigeon-holed into public programs, are denied equal opportunity in this way.

Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, Europe has introduced a new law, the Digital Markets Act (DMA), which regulates large online platforms, identified as “gatekeepers”. The DMA requires gatekeepers to adhere to specific obligations and prohibitions, typically subject to antitrust case-by-case scrutiny, to ensure fairness and contestability in digital markets. The European historical intellectual framework underpins the core features of the DMA, including its legal framework, approach, scope, and purpose. Since 2021, several antitrust bills have proposed a U.S. version of the DMA, aiming to reform antitrust law by adopting a similar legal framework, approach, scope, and purpose. However, this raises critical questions: Does the U.S. antitrust historical intellectual framework support the adoption of the DMA? Would a DMA type approach be successful in the United States? The conclusion from this comparative historical analysis of the DMA’s foundations is no. In making this claim, this Article lays out a roadmap for understanding the deep roots of the DMA in European history and tradition and why the U.S. approach to competition diverges in its foundations.</p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 40px;\">This Article makes three important contributions: First, it provides a historical comparative analysis between the intellectual frameworks of the United States and European Union (EU) by mapping out the roots of two very different antitrust traditions. Second, the Article unveils the ordoliberal ideology underlying the DMA, which fundamentally differs from the neoclassical way of thinking about and enforcing competition in the United States. Third, it gleans insights that American antitrust could learn from contrasting European approaches to regulating competition consistent with its core values.</p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 40px;\">The Article concludes by arguing that implementing a law like the DMA for U.S. antitrust law would be like forcing a square peg into a round hole. However, Europe does serve as a useful laboratory for the United States from which to draw important lessons.

The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) transition spans ~57 to 48 million years ago with global temperatures ranging from ~9 to 23°C higher than pre-industrial times. There are differing views whether modern carbon increases will lead to similar patterns in temperature and how it may impact global communities. This research used data provided by the International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP). The study examines how marine diatom communities responded to the rapid warming of the PETM as a potential analog for future marine diversity under a warming climate. Statistical analyses assess potential changes in diversity of diatom abundance data from existing marine sediment cores from Lomonosov Ridge in the Central Arctic Ocean, Blake Nose in the Western North Atlantic Ocean, and Broken Ridge in the Eastern Indian Ocean. Examining changes at different latitudes provides a more comprehensive picture of how rapid warming impacted diatom species richness and diversity across the globe. The Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index details change in diatom communities. Principal Component Analysis and Hierarchical Cluster analysis further refine variance between datasets. Results suggest diatom communities were negatively affected by the rapid warming of the PETM in middle latitude locations, while the Central Arctic Ocean diatom communities showed an increase in diatom species richness and diversity.

Jackson Women’s Health Organization</em>", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "<p style=\"text-indent: 40px;\">Women in the military have not had access to abortion care since 1978, when Congress introduced an amendment to a Department of Defense (DoD) appropriations bill, later codified under 10 U.S.C. § 1093, that prohibited the use of DoD funds for abortions. While women have endured this second-class health care for over four decades, the Supreme Court’s decision in <em>Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization</em> has created new problems for servicewomen and the military writ large. Now military women must travel off-base and, in some instances, out-of-state or out-of-country, to seek an abortion. While women in and out of uniform share this burden, servicewomen must comply with military constraints that exacerbate their situation, including following orders that require them to be stationed in states that criminalize abortion, reporting their pregnancy up their chain of command, following leave protocols that require their commander’s approval when traveling for abortion care, and managing unpredictable assignments, including deployments, while seeking reproductive care. These unique circumstances create an unwelcoming and terrifying environment for military women at a time when the military is desperately trying to diversify the armed forces.</p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 40px;\">The DoD responded to the <em>Dobbs</em> decision by instituting an abortion travel policy, now rescinded, that allowed service members to be reimbursed for abortion-related travel, such as lodging, mileage, and per diem. While such policies are laudable, they are subject to change, and they do not diminish the legal and professional challenges that service members face after <em>Dobbs</em>. This Article analyzes the legal authorities that shape reproductive health policies in the military. It argues that the swirling political winds that influence abortion policies undermine the stability that military health care is meant to provide. Despite the hardships that service members face after <em>Dobbs</em>, renewed challenges to 10 U.S.C. § 1093 are likely to fail. However, Congress’s statutory ban should not prohibit the DoD from exploring alternative means of providing support to service members. The Article argues for increased confidentiality for pregnant servicewomen and argues that the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) should be utilized to provide abortion services to servicewomen. The DoD must encourage formal and informal support networks and must leverage private organizations as gap-fillers where military health care falls short. The Article concludes that the military’s crippled reproductive health services are unacceptable in the age of <em>Dobbs</em> and that their detrimental impact on service members and national security is a national crisis. Unless reproductive services are expanded, the abortion issue will continue to impact national security and will hamstring the military’s efforts to modernize.</p>", "language": null, "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6wb7b5vd", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Hugh", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "McClean", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2026-02-05T19:42:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ucilr/article/62306/galley/48147/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 62304, "title": "Cover", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": null, "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Prefatory", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4182b17c", "frozenauthors": [], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2026-02-05T19:27:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ucilr/article/62304/galley/48146/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 48363, "title": "A Conversation with Educational Developers in DEI-Hostile States", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

This hidden curriculum reinforces exclusionary academic norms that disproportionately disadvantage minoritized scholars. We reflect on our writing collaborative as a counterspace, a space for mutual support and solidarity, in which we could explore and resist the hidden curriculum. By examining the barriers we encountered and the insights that emerged from our work together, we describe how writing groups can help educational developers critically examine the norms of our field, build identities as academic writers and community, and affirm diverse forms of academic writing.

The starting point of the faculty teaching journey is often a neglected aspect of the educational development literature. This case study examines where and how 10 U.S. college instructors developed their beliefs about their capacity for college-level teaching generally, and particularly their confidence in equity-based teaching. We found that college instructors generally lacked first-hand experience teaching in diverse classrooms, so drew on other types of diversity to inform their equity-based teaching. The college instructors received feedback on their general teaching from multiple sources, which was valuable. Feedback on their equity-based teaching came mostly from students but was often limited or negative. We also found variations in where and how the instructors developed their beliefs about their capacity for equity-based teaching by discipline and gender. Considering the starting points of college instructors’ beliefs about their capacity to teach, especially in equity-based ways, has implications for educational developers in reducing barriers and developing programs to increase instructors’ confidence.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

We compared demographic characteristics such as age, sheltering status, and underlying health conditions that contribute to susceptibility to extreme heat. We described the clinical course of these patients, presenting over a 12-year span, who were diagnosed with heat-related illness, to inform local risk stratification. </p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> We conducted retrospective chart abstraction of encounters between January 1, 2012–December 31, 2023, which included adults 18-89 years of age, presenting to a single hospital system’s emergency department (ED), with an International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, discharge diagnosis within the T67 heat-related diagnosis code family. We compared demographic characteristics to baseline ED presentations and summarized clinical characteristics in frequencies. Trends were described over time juxtaposed with temperature data. </p>\n<p><strong>Results: </strong>The 141 patients with a heat illness diagnosis were older, with a mean age of 53, and were more likely to be male (81.6%), White (51.8%), or Native American (7.8%) as compared to adult (18-89 years of age) all-comer ED presentations. Patients with a heat illness often carried co-occurring diagnoses of contact burns (38.3%) or rhabdomyolysis (25.5%). Common chronic comorbid conditions included cardiovascular disease (33.3%) and substance use disorder (22.0%). Antipsychotics (22.0%), laxatives (24.1%), and beta blockers (15.6%) were frequent home medications among heat-affected patients. Of the patients who were the most critically ill from heat illness, 35.5% required ED intubation and 95.7% were admitted, with 45.9% of those requiring intensive care. While most were discharged to self-care (59.3%), 26.7% required skilled nursing care at discharge. </p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>This review describes the characteristics and clinical course of patients diagnosed with heat illness over more than a decade of increasingly frequent and extreme heat in Phoenix, AZ. It provides a unique and sizeable cohort that can guide the surveillance and treatment of heat illness. We highlight clinical trends and gaps in clinical heat illness data to identify vulnerabilities and protective factors among our patients.</p>", "language": "eng", "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.

Patients were stratified by age, race/ethnicity, and pregnancy status. Main outcomes were ultimate outcome severity, presenting vital signs, and diagnostic tests performed. We defined high-severity outcome as any patient who was dead on arrival, died in the ED, or during that hospitalization; any patient admitted to the intensive care or stepdown units or to the cardiac catheterization lab or the operating room; or patients transferred to a non-psychiatric hospital. Moderate severity was defined as any patient admitted to floor-level care, held in observation, or transferred to a psychiatric hospital. We defined low-severity outcome as any patient discharged home.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Patients presenting with a chief complaint of vaginal bleeding comprised 1.3% (95% CI, 1.2-1.4%,) of all ED visits, representing 14,620,933 total encounters. Of these patients, 53.0% (95% CI, 49.4-56.7%) were identified as pregnant.

The majority of patients (88.1%, 95% CI, 86.1-90%) were classified as having a low-severity outcome, 10.3% (95% CI, 8.5-12.1%) were classified as moderate-severity, and 1.6% (95% CI,1.0-2.2%) as high-severity. Patients who were ultimately classified with high-severity outcomes had significantly higher shock indices at presentation and shorter wait times than patients with low-severity outcomes (0.75 [95% CI, 0.72-0.78] vs 0.68 [95% CI, 0.67-0.69], and 23.4 minutes [95% CI, 17.1-29.8] vs 41.7 minutes [95% CI, 37.1-46.4], respectively), despite no difference in median Emergency Severity Index triage score (2.5 [IQR 2.1-2.8] v 2.6 [IQR 2.2-2.9]).
