Objective:
To assess experience, physical infrastructure, and capabilities of high-level isolation units (HLIUs) planning to participate in a 2018 global HLIU workshop hosted by the US National Emerging Special Pathogens Training and Education Center (NETEC).
Design:An electronic survey elicited information on general HLIU organization, operating costs, staffing models, and infection control protocols of select global units.
Setting and participants:The survey was distributed to site representatives of 22 HLIUs located in the United States, Europe, and Asia; 19 (86%) responded.
Methods:Data were coded and analyzed using descriptive statistics.
Results:The mean annual reported budget for the 19 responding units was US$484,615. Most (89%) had treated a suspected or confirmed case of a high-consequence infectious disease. Reported composition of trained teams included a broad range of clinical and nonclinical roles. The mean number of HLIU beds was 6.37 (median, 4; range, 2–20) for adults and 4.23 (median, 2; range, 1–10) for children; however, capacity was dependent on pathogen.
Conclusions:Responding HLIUs represent some of the most experienced HLIUs in the world. Variation in reported unit infrastructure, capabilities, and procedures demonstrate the variety of HLIU approaches. A number of technical questions unique to HLIUs remain unanswered related to physical design, infection prevention and control procedures, and staffing and training. These key areas represent potential focal points for future evidence and practice guidelines. These data are important considerations for hospitals considering the design and development of HLIUs, and there is a need for continued global HLIU collaboration to define best practices.

Background
Item 9 of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) queries about thoughts of death and self-harm, but not suicidality. Although it is sometimes used to assess suicide risk, most positive responses are not associated with suicidality. The PHQ-8, which omits Item 9, is thus increasingly used in research. We assessed equivalency of total score correlations and the diagnostic accuracy to detect major depression of the PHQ-8 and PHQ-9.
MethodsWe conducted an individual patient data meta-analysis. We fit bivariate random-effects models to assess diagnostic accuracy.
Results16 742 participants (2097 major depression cases) from 54 studies were included. The correlation between PHQ-8 and PHQ-9 scores was 0.996 (95% confidence interval 0.996 to 0.996). The standard cutoff score of 10 for the PHQ-9 maximized sensitivity + specificity for the PHQ-8 among studies that used a semi-structured diagnostic interview reference standard (N = 27). At cutoff 10, the PHQ-8 was less sensitive by 0.02 (−0.06 to 0.00) and more specific by 0.01 (0.00 to 0.01) among those studies (N = 27), with similar results for studies that used other types of interviews (N = 27). For all 54 primary studies combined, across all cutoffs, the PHQ-8 was less sensitive than the PHQ-9 by 0.00 to 0.05 (0.03 at cutoff 10), and specificity was within 0.01 for all cutoffs (0.00 to 0.01).
ConclusionsPHQ-8 and PHQ-9 total scores were similar. Sensitivity may be minimally reduced with the PHQ-8, but specificity is similar.

The Atacama Large (Sub-)millimeter Array (ALMA) has provided glimpse of the interstellar medium (ISM) properties of galaxies at the Epoch of Reionization (EoR); however, detailed understanding of their internal structure is still lacking. We present properties of molecular cloud complexes (MCCs) in a prototypical galaxy at this epoch studied in cosmological zoom-in simulations (Leung et al. 2019c). Typical MCC mass and size are comparable to nearby spirals and starburst galaxies (Mgas∼106.5Mȯ and R≃45–100 pc). MCCs are highly supersonic, with velocity dispersion of σgas≃20–100 km s−1 and pressure of P/kB ≃107.6Kcm−3, which are comparable to gas-rich starburst galaxies. In addition, we perform stability analysis to understand the origin and dynamical properties of MCCs. We find that MCCs are globally stable in the main disk of Althæa. Densest regions where star formation is expected to take place in clumps and cores on even smaller scales instead have lower virial parameter and Toomre-Q values. Detailed studies of the star-forming gas dynamics at the EoR thus require a spatial resolution of < 40 pc ( ≃ 0.01″), which is within reach of ALMA, to complement studies of stellar populations at EoR using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

Background
Different diagnostic interviews are used as reference standards for major depression classification in research. Semi-structured interviews involve clinical judgement, whereas fully structured interviews are completely scripted. The Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI), a brief fully structured interview, is also sometimes used. It is not known whether interview method is associated with probability of major depression classification.
AimsTo evaluate the association between interview method and odds of major depression classification, controlling for depressive symptom scores and participant characteristics.
MethodData collected for an individual participant data meta-analysis of Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) diagnostic accuracy were analysed and binomial generalised linear mixed models were fit.
ResultsA total of 17 158 participants (2287 with major depression) from 57 primary studies were analysed. Among fully structured interviews, odds of major depression were higher for the MINI compared with the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) (odds ratio (OR) = 2.10; 95% CI = 1.15–3.87). Compared with semi-structured interviews, fully structured interviews (MINI excluded) were non-significantly more likely to classify participants with low-level depressive symptoms (PHQ-9 scores ≤6) as having major depression (OR = 3.13; 95% CI = 0.98–10.00), similarly likely for moderate-level symptoms (PHQ-9 scores 7–15) (OR = 0.96; 95% CI = 0.56–1.66) and significantly less likely for high-level symptoms (PHQ-9 scores ≥16) (OR = 0.50; 95% CI = 0.26–0.97).
ConclusionsThe MINI may identify more people as depressed than the CIDI, and semi-structured and fully structured interviews may not be interchangeable methods, but these results should be replicated.

Using a categorical semantics that has been developed recently as a basis, we study composition and refinement as horizontal and vertical structuring techniques for typed graph transformation systems. Composition of graph transformation systems with respect to common subsystems is shown to be compatible with the semantics, i.e., the semantics of the composed system is obtained as the composition of the semantics of the component systems. Moreover, the structure of a composed graph transformation system is preserved during a refinement step in the sense that compatible refinements of the components induce a refinement of the composition. The concepts and results are illustrated by a sample development of a small information system using entity relationship modelling techniques.

The Jews who lived in the Lodz (Litzmannstadt) ghetto endeavored in a variety of written ways to document their experiences for later generations. Photographers who lived in the ghetto also helped capture on film the daily reality of those who lived there. In this way, the foundation was laid for a later investigation of the ghetto—one from the perspective of the victims, who wanted to ensure that the perpetrators would not be able to monopolize future interpretations of what had transpired there. After providing a brief overview of the history of the ghetto and of the archive set up by the Jewish ghetto administration specifically for this task, the article focuses on the activities of two photographers in particular: Mendel Grossman and Henryk Ross, who secretly, and at great risk to their own lives, attempted to capture as many aspects of ghetto life as possible. The article discusses a number of their photographs, the way in which they came into being, and the likely motivation of those who made them.

The functions and structure of the pericardial glands (Keber's organ) of bivalves were reviewed by White (1942). The cells of this gland have been considered to have an excretory role and Grobben (1887) suggested that the cells of the pericardial gland could be compared with the chloragogen cells of annelids.

Summary
We compute 3D models of supersonic, sub-Alfvénic, and super-Alfvénic decaying turbulence, with initial rms Alfvénic and Mach numbers ranging up to five, and an isothermal equation of state appropriate for star-forming interstellar clouds of molecular gas. We find that in 3D the kinetic energy decays as t−η, with 0.85 < η < 1.2. In 1D magnetized turbulence actually decays faster than unmagnetized turbulence. We compared different algorithms, and performed resolution studies reaching 2563 zones or 703 particles. External driving must produce the observed long lifetimes and supersonic motions in molecular clouds, as undriven turbulence decays too fast.
Introduction
Molecular cloud lifetimes are of order 3 × 107 yr (Blitz & Shu 1980), while free-fall gravitational collapse times are only tff = (1.4 × 106 yr) (n/103 cm−3)−½. In the absence of non-thermal support, these clouds should collapse and form stars in a small fraction of their observed lifetime. Supersonic hydrodynamical (HD) turbulence is suggested as a support mechanism by the observed broad lines, but was dismissed because it would decay in times of order tff. A popular alternative has been sub- or trans-Alfvénic magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) turbulence, which was first suggested by Arons & Max (1975) to decay an order of magnitude more slowly. (Also see Gammie & Ostriker 1996).
However, analytic estimates and computational models suggest that incompressible MHD turbulence decays as t−η, with a decay rate 2/3 < η < 1.0 (Biskamp 1994; Hossain et al. 1995; Politano, Pouquet, & Sulem 1995; Galtier, Politano, & Pouquet 1997), while incompressible HD turbulence has been experimentally measured to decay with 1.2 < η < 2 (Comte-Bellot & Corrsin 1966; Smith et al. 1993; Warhaft & Lumley 1978).

We numerically model the impact of superbubbles produced by starbursts on the gas in dwarf galaxies, using realistic gravitational potentials including the contributions from dark matter haloes, and galaxy radii based on empirical laws. We find that the metal-rich gas is very efficiently ejected in many cases, contradicting previous results; the ambient gas is far more difficult to eject. X-ray emitting plumes can last more than 108 yr after the end of the active starburst.
