Objectives:
Late-life depression (LLD) is common and frequently co-occurs with neurodegenerative diseases of aging. Little is known about how heterogeneity within LLD relates to factors typically associated with neurodegeneration. Varying levels of anxiety are one source of heterogeneity in LLD. We examined associations between anxiety symptom severity and factors associated with neurodegeneration, including regional brain volumes, amyloid beta (Aβ) deposition, white matter disease, cognitive dysfunction, and functional ability in LLD.
Participants and Measurements:Older adults with major depression (N = 121, Ages 65–91) were evaluated for anxiety severity and the following: brain volume (orbitofrontal cortex [OFC], insula), cortical Aβ standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR), white matter hyperintensity (WMH) volume, global cognition, and functional ability. Separate linear regression analyses adjusting for age, sex, and concurrent depression severity were conducted to examine associations between anxiety and each of these factors. A global regression analysis was then conducted to examine the relative associations of these variables with anxiety severity.
Results:Greater anxiety severity was associated with lower OFC volume (β = −68.25, t = −2.18, p = .031) and greater cognitive dysfunction (β = 0.23, t = 2.46, p = .016). Anxiety severity was not associated with insula volume, Aβ SUVR, WMH, or functional ability. When examining the relative associations of cognitive functioning and OFC volume with anxiety in a global model, cognitive dysfunction (β = 0.24, t = 2.62, p = .010), but not OFC volume, remained significantly associated with anxiety.
Conclusions:Among multiple factors typically associated with neurodegeneration, cognitive dysfunction stands out as a key factor associated with anxiety severity in LLD which has implications for cognitive and psychiatric interventions.

We performed an epidemiological investigation and genome sequencing of severe acute respiratory coronavirus virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) to define the source and scope of an outbreak in a cluster of hospitalized patients. Lack of appropriate respiratory hygiene led to SARS-CoV-2 transmission to patients and healthcare workers during a single hemodialysis session, highlighting the importance of infection prevention precautions.

Most commonly used models for turbulent mixing in the ocean rely on a background stratification against which turbulence must work to stir the fluid. While this background stratification is typically well defined in idealized numerical models, it is more difficult to capture in observations. Here, a potential discrepancy in ocean mixing estimates due to the chosen calculation of the background stratification is explored using direct numerical simulation data of breaking internal waves on slopes. Two different methods for computing the buoyancy frequency $N$, one based on a three-dimensionally sorted density field (often used in numerical models) and the other based on locally sorted vertical density profiles (often used in the field), are used to quantify the effect of $N$ on turbulence quantities. It is shown that how $N$ is calculated changes not only the flux Richardson number $R_{f}$, which is often used to parameterize turbulent mixing, but also the turbulence activity number or the Gibson number $Gi$, leading to potential errors in estimates of the mixing efficiency using $Gi$-based parameterizations.

Using direct numerical simulations (DNS), we explore local and volume-integrated measures of turbulence and mixing in breaking internal waves on slopes. We consider eight breaking wave cases with a range of normalized pycnocline thicknesses $k\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}$, where $k$ is the horizontal wavenumber and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}$ is the pycnocline thickness, but with similar incoming wave properties. The energetics of wave breaking is quantified in terms of local turbulent dissipation and irreversible mixing using the method of Scotti & White (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 740, 2014, pp. 114–135). Local turbulent mixing efficiencies are calculated using the irreversible flux Richardson number $R_{f}^{\ast }$ and are found to be a function of the turbulent Froude number $Fr_{k}$. Volume-integrated measures of the turbulent mixing efficiency during wave breaking are also made, and are found to be functions of $k\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}$. The bulk turbulent mixing efficiency ranges from 0.25 to 0.37 and is maximized when $k\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}\approx 1$. In order to connect local and bulk mixing efficiency measures, the variation in the bulk turbulent mixing efficiency with $k\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}$ is related to the turbulent Froude number at which the maximum total mixing occurs over the course of the breaking event, $Fr_{k}^{max}$. We find that physically, $Fr_{k}^{max}$ is controlled by the vertical length scale of billows at the interface during wave breaking.

Geologic archives show that the Earth was dustier during the last glacial period. One model suggests that increased gustiness (stronger, more frequent winds) enhanced dustiness. We tested this at Loveland, Iowa, one of the thickest deposits of last-glacial-age (Peoria) loess in the world. Based on K/Rb and Ba/Rb, loess was derived not only from glaciogenic sources of the Missouri River, but also distal loess from non-glacial sources in Nebraska. Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ages provide the first detailed chronology of Peoria Loess at Loveland. Deposition began after ~ 27 ka and continued until ~ 17 ka. OSL ages also indicate that mass accumulation rates (MARs) of loess were not constant. MARs were highest and grain size was coarsest during the time of middle Peoria Loess accretion, ~ 23 ka, when ~ 10 m of loess accumulated in no more than ~ 2000 yr and possibly much less. The timing of coarsest grain size and highest MAR, indicating strongest winds, coincides with a summer-insolation minimum at high latitudes in North America and the maximum southward extent of the Laurentide ice sheet. These observations suggest that increased dustiness during the last glacial period was driven largely by enhanced gustiness, forced by a steepened meridional temperature gradient.

We use the results of a direct numerical simulation (DNS) with a particle-tracking model to investigate three-dimensional transport by breaking internal gravity waves on slopes. Onshore transport occurs within an upslope surge of dense fluid after breaking. Offshore transport occurs due to an intrusion of mixed fluid that propagates offshore and resembles an intermediate nepheloid layer (INL). Entrainment of particles into the INL is related to irreversible mixing of the density field during wave breaking. Maximum onshore and offshore transport are calculated as a function of initial particle position, and can be of the order of the initial wave length scale for particles initialized within the breaking region. An effective cross-shore dispersion coefficient is also calculated, and is roughly three orders of magnitude larger than the molecular diffusivity within the breaking region. Particles are transported laterally due to turbulence that develops during wave breaking, and this lateral spreading is quantified with a lateral turbulent diffusivity. Lateral turbulent diffusivity values calculated using particles are elevated by more than one order of magnitude above the molecular diffusivity, and are shown to agree well with turbulent diffusivities estimated using a generic length scale turbulence closure model. Based on a favourable comparison of DNS results with those of a similar two-dimensional case, we use two-dimensional simulations to extend our cross-shore transport results to additional wave amplitude and bathymetric slope conditions.

For exploring the prospect of higher-k dielectric phase engineering on a high mobility substrate, films of Hf1-xZrxO2 with varying x-values (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) were deposited on Al2O3 passivated Ge substrates using atomic layer deposition (ALD) with a cyclic deposit-anneal-deposit-anneal (DADA) scheme. The evolution of monoclinic to higher-k tetragonal structure with increasing ZrO2 concentration was probed by grazing incident x-ray diffraction and partial reciprocal space maps using the highly brilliant synchrotron x-ray source at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS). A primarily amorphous/nano-crystalline matrix of the asdeposited films changed to randomly aligned grains of nanocrystalline MO2 (M=Hf, Zr) after post deposition annealing at 800 °C for 200 seconds. In contrast, the DADA films annealed for same thermal budget showed high degree of preferred orientation along certain crystallographic directions. With increasing ZrO2 content, the structure of the films changed from a monoclinic to a tetragonal phase. A lower amount of ZrO2 (x = 0.33) was required for stabilizing the tetragonal phase in films grown on Al2O3 passivated Ge substrate as compared to similar films grown on a Si substrate via the same DADA process (x ≥ 0.50).

Purpose:
We report the treatment and follow-up, including MRI, of two patients with idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis and review the English language literature, with emphasis on management and outcome in this rare disorder.
Methods and Materials:The files of two patients were reviewed, with relevant histopathology and imaging (MRI). The first patient has been followed for sixteen years (the longest MRI-documented postoperative course reported for this condition) and the second for two years. The English language literature was reviewed, including a summary of all reported patients that have been followed with MRI or CT imaging.
Results:Despite extensive investigation, no underlying etiology was determined in either patient. Histopathological studies revealed a chronic inflammatory dural infiltrate in both patients, with granulomas in the first but not the second patient. The first patient underwent surgery twice and has remained stable for sixteen years, despite persistent neurologic deficits. The second patient was managed with dexamethasone after a surgical biopsy, and experienced complete resolution of all neurological deficits and abnormalities seen with MRI.
Conclusion:Although prompt and extensive surgery has been recommended for this condition, the results from our second patient indicate that complete remission can be achieved in some patients with biopsy and steroid therapy. This also supports the view that autoimmune mechanisms underlie idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis. The first patient illustrates that extensive laminectomies may be an effective therapeutic option but chronic discomfort may result. If extensive surgery must be performed, laminoplasty should be done because of the potential for reduced pain and improved long-term spinal stability.

Using direct numerical simulations (DNS), we investigate the structure and energetics of breaking internal waves on slopes. We employ a Navier–Stokes code in an idealized three-dimensional domain where an internal solitary wave of depression impinges upon a sloping bottom. Seven cases with varying initial wave amplitude and bathymetric slope, but constant wave Reynolds number $\mathit{Re}_{w}$ are considered. Volume-integrated values of dissipation and irreversible mixing are related to the density and velocity structure of the wave throughout the breaking process. The majority of dissipation (63 %) occurs along the no-slip bottom boundary. Most of the remaining dissipation (35 %) and nearly all irreversible mixing occurs in the interior after breaking, when density overturns are present at the interface. Breaking introduces three-dimensionality to the flow field that is driven by the lateral breakdown of density overturns and the lobe–cleft instability typical of gravity currents. The resulting longitudinal rolls (streamwise vorticity) increase dissipation by roughly 8 % and decrease irreversible mixing by roughly 20 % when compared with a similar two-dimensional simulation. The bulk mixing efficiency is shown to increase for larger and smaller values of the internal Iribarren number ${\it\xi}$, with a minimum for intermediate values of ${\it\xi}$ and a peak near ${\it\xi}=0.8$ for plunging breakers. This trend is explained by the degree of two-dimensionality in the flow, and agrees with previous results in the literature after accounting for Reynolds number effects. Local turbulence quantities are also calculated at ‘virtual moorings’, and a location upslope of the breakpoint but downslope of the intersection of the pycnocline and the bottom is shown to provide a signal that is most representative of the volume-integrated dissipation and mixing results.

Background: Neither professional consensus nor evidence exists to guide the choice of essential hospital disaster interventions. The objective of our study was to demonstrate a method for developing consensus on hospital disaster interventions that should be regarded as essential, quantitatively balancing needs and resources.
Methods: A panel of pediatric acute care practitioners developed consensus using a modified Delphi process. Interventions were chosen such that workload per staff member would not exceed the previously validated maximum according to the Therapeutic Intervention Scoring System. Based on published models, it was assumed that the usual numbers of staff would care for a disaster surge of 4 times the usual number of intensive care and non–intensive care hospital patients.
Results: Using a single set of assumptions on constrained resources and overwhelming needs, the panel ranked and agreed on essential interventions. A number of standard interventions would exceed crisis workload constraints, including detailed recording of vital signs and fluid balance, administration of vasoactive agents, invasive monitoring of pressures (central venous, intraarterial, intracranial), dialysis, and tube feedings.
Conclusions: The quantitative methodology and consensus development process described in the present report may have utility in future planning. Groups with appropriate expertise must develop action plans according to authority within each jurisdiction, addressing likely disaster scenarios, according to the needs in each medical service region, using available regional resources, and accounting for the capabilities of each institution.

Nanomedicine is yielding new and improved treatments and diagnostics for a range of diseases and disorders. Nanomedicine applications incorporate materials and components with nanoscale dimensions (often defined as 1-100 nm, but sometimes defined to include dimensions up to 1000 nm, as discussed further below) where novel physiochemical properties emerge as a result of size-dependent phenomena and high surface-to-mass ratio. Nanotherapeutics and in vivo nanodiagnostics are a subset of nanomedicine products that enter the human body. These include drugs, biological products (biologics), implantable medical devices, and combination products that are designed to function in the body in ways unachievable at larger scales. Nanotherapeutics and in vivo nanodiagnostics incorporate materials that are engineered at the nanoscale to express novel properties that are medicinally useful. These nanomedicine applications can also contain nanomaterials that are biologically active, producing interactions that depend on biological triggers. Examples include nanoscale formulations of insoluble drugs to improve bioavailability and pharmacokinetics, drugs encapsulated in hollow nanoparticles with the ability to target and cross cellular and tissue membranes (including the bloodbrain barrier) and to release their payload at a specific time or location, imaging agents that demonstrate novel optical properties to aid in locating micrometastases, and antimicrobial and drug-eluting components or coatings of implantable medical devices such as stents.
