A Case Report of an Unprovoked Neonatal Pulmonary Embolism: Management Strategies and Cardiopulmonary Complications

Abstract Background Neonatal pulmonary embolism is a rare occurrence, especially when idiopathic, instead occurring in patients with identifiable risk factors including severe dehydration, presence or history of a central venous line or identifiable genetic causes. Given the rarity of pediatric and neonatal pulmonary emboli, few guidelines exist to support the clinician in both the initial resuscitation and ongoing management of the critically ill patient with pulmonary emboli. Case summary We present a 5-day old with unprovoked massive pulmonary embolism and associated hemodynamic compromise. She presented with central cyanosis and weak respiratory effort with hypoxemia, persistent tachycardia and hypotension despite initial fluid resuscitation, intubation and administration of 100% FiO2 and inhaled nitric oxide. She was ultimately diagnosed with a massive pulmonary embolism involving the right pulmonary artery by both echocardiography and computed chest tomography, initiated on inotropic support and systemic anticoagulation, after which she underwent mechanical thrombectomy. She was successfully extubated soon thereafter, with subsequent resolution of her emboli. No provoking factors were able to be identified for this patient. Discussion This case highlights the cumulative burden of pulmonary obstruction and inter-ventricular interactions that lead to hemodynamic compromise in the event of massive pulmonary embolism, with resultant considerations of key management strategies. These include the risks of fluid resuscitation and introduction of positive pressure ventilation, as well as the need for early consideration of inotropic support and an institutional pathway for anticoagulation, ultimately proposing a multidisciplinary algorithm for the clinician to deploy when faced with impending cardiovascular collapse from massive pulmonary embolism.

Patients with low prognosis in ART: a Delphi consensus to identify potential clinical implications and measure the impact of POSEIDON criteria

BackgroundCurrently, there is no consensus on the optimal management of women with low prognosis in ART. In this Delphi consensus, a panel of international experts provided real-world clinical perspectives on a series of literature-supported consensus statements regarding the overall relevance of the POSEIDON criteria for women with low prognosis in ART.MethodsUsing a Delphi-consensus framework, twelve experts plus two Scientific Coordinators discussed and amended statements and supporting references proposed by the Scientific Coordinators (Round 1). Statements were distributed via an online survey to an extended panel of 53 experts, of whom 36 who voted anonymously on their level of agreement or disagreement with each statement using a six-point Likert-type scale (1 = Absolutely agree; 2 = More than agree; 3 = Agree; 4 = Disagree; 5 = More than disagree; 6 = Absolutely disagree) (Round 2). Consensus was reached if > 66% of participants agreed or disagreed.ResultsThe extended panel voted on seventeen statements and subcategorized them according to relevance. All but one statement reached consensus during the first round; the remaining statement reached consensus after rewording. Statements were categorized according to impact, low-prognosis validation, outcomes and patient management. The POSEIDON criteria are timely and clinically sound. The preferred success measure is cumulative live birth and key management strategies include the use of recombinant FSH preparations, supplementation with r-hLH, dose increases and oocyte/embryo accumulation through vitrification. Tools such as the ART Calculator and Follicle-to-Oocyte Index may be considered. Validation data from large, prospective studies in each POSEIDON group are now needed to corroborate existing retrospective data.ConclusionsThis Delphi consensus provides an overview of expert opinion on the clinical implications of the POSEIDON criteria for women with low prognosis to ovarian stimulation.

Advanced Encryption Techniques in Healthcare IoT: Securing Patient Data in Connected Medical Devices

As a result of the fast development of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, the healthcare sector has undergone a transformation. This transformation has been brought about by the deployment of linked medical devices that provide immediate monitoring and data collecting. Despite the fact that these innovations promise to bring about considerable gains in patient care and operational efficiency, they also bring about major security issues, especially with regard to the protection of personally identifiable information about patients. Within the context of the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem for healthcare, this study investigates sophisticated encryption approaches that are aimed to protect patient data stored in linked medical equipment. One of the first things that the research does is investigate the specific security needs and risks that are linked with Internet of Things (IoT) devices in the healthcare industry. These include concerns around data privacy, integrity, and authentication. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) are some of the encryption standards and protocols that are often used in the process of protecting Internet of Things (IoT) connections. This article presents a complete examination of these encryption standards and protocols. Following that, it digs into sophisticated encryption approaches that are especially targeted to the limits and needs of healthcare IoT systems. These techniques include lightweight cryptographic algorithms, key management strategies, and secure multi-party computing (MPC) frameworks.

Optimizing Bodybuilding Training Frequency for Weight Loss and Psychological Well-Being in Overweight Individuals: A 12-Week Study

Background: The increasing incidence of overweight and obesity raises a global public health challenge, with overweight individuals (BMI 25–29.9) at higher risk for chronic diseases like cardiovascular conditions and diabetes (WHO, 2024). While lifestyle changes, including dieting and exercise, are key strategies for weight management, bodybuilding is gaining attention for its potential in fat loss and improving body composition. However, the optimal frequency for bodybuilding sessions in overweight individuals remains unclear. This study explores the effects of different training frequencies on body weight, BMI, and fat loss. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 90 participants, all classified as overweight (BMI 25–29.9). Participants were recruited through online advertisements and were divided into three groups, each following a 12-week bodybuilding training regimen with varying frequencies: twice, thrice, or five times weekly. Baseline body weight and BMI were recorded before training, and changes were assessed at the end of the program. A short questionnaire evaluated the effects of the training on weight loss, body composition, and psychological outcomes. Results: This study involved 90 participants, primarily aged 25-34 (48.9%). The demographic analysis revealed that males constituted 66.7% of the sample, exhibiting a mean weight loss of 75.23 pounds (p < 0.001) after 12 weeks of bodybuilding training, effectively rejecting the hypothesis that bodybuilding training has no significant impact on weight loss. Additionally, while no significant differences in weight loss were observed based on training frequency (F(2, 87) = 0.791, p = 0.457), both weight loss and body mass index (BMI) significantly improved with training. Conclusion: Overall, regular bodybuilding training positively influenced weight loss, body composition, and psychological well-being.

Managers in Crisis Situations: Key Crisis Management Skills and Strategies

Managers in Crisis Situations: Key Crisis Management Skills and Strategies

A dynamic model of repositioning with a Markov-switching regime

AbstractRepositioning products and services to entice customers is a key management strategy that requires careful planning, timing, and budget allocation. This study is the first to investigate repositioning strategies by considering a Hotelling-type location model where consumer preferences change over time with short- and long-term uncertainty. This requires the firm to adjust its product positioning to continue to appeal to consumers. A key assumption is that the parameters describing the dynamics of consumer preferences are modulated by a Markov-switching regime representing long-term uncertainty. Further, this study investigates the effects of regime shift intensity on repositioning strategies. We numerically solve a simultaneous ordinary differential equation system to derive a firm’s optimal strategy, represented by repositioning thresholds that depend on the regimes. We find that in the two-regime case, one threshold is monotonic with respect to the regime shift intensity, whereas the other can be non-monotonic. This suggests that a firm should simultaneously consider the value of the current regime and option value of waiting for a regime shift, thus effectively demonstrating the significance of the uncertainty associated with regime-switching.

Experiences with care coordination and backup plans in home and community based services during the COVID-19 pandemic in Kansas

BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic was an emergency event during which backup plans became widely relevant. Although backup plans are required for Medicaid-funded Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) as a key risk management strategy, we know little about their effectiveness. ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to explore whether backup plans and care coordination met the needs of HCBS consumers during the COVID-19 pandemic in Kansas. MethodsAn interactive, convergent mixed-methods design within a community-based participatory research framework was used. Data came from 70 in-depth interviews with HCBS consumers, caregivers, workers, and providers, as well as 100 surveys from consumers, asking about experiences receiving or providing care during the COVID-19 pandemic in Kansas. Inductive coding was used to identify major themes for the qualitative data. Descriptive and bivariate analysis were used for quantitative data. ResultsOne-third of survey respondents reported not having a backup plan and 39% went without formal homecare services for at least 2 consecutive weeks. The pandemic exacerbated and exposed deficiencies in care coordination and backup plans in a managed care environment. Interview participants expressed great need for backup workers during the pandemic but struggled to find these supports. Although family, friends, and providers stepped in to help fill gaps, there remained many unmet care needs. ConclusionsFindings indicate that improvements are needed in care coordination to support the development and maintenance of backup plans that can be successfully drawn on to avoid interruptions to care.

A Scoping Review of Pain Management After Transoral Robotic Surgery.

Pain following transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is a driver of adverse outcomes and can lead to readmission and treatment delays. A scoping review was conducted to characterize TORS-related pain and identify key management strategies utilized in the literature. OVID Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane, Pubmed, and Embase databases were queried. Two team members independently screened titles and abstracts and completed full-text reviews. Studies examining TORS for OPSCC with quantitative pain data were included. The study followed the PRISMA guidelines. A total of 1467 studies were imported for screeningand 25 studies were ultimately included. The average study sample size was 89 participants. 68% were conducted in a single-center academic setting. Pain was assessed on varying timelines up to 3 years using 13 different metrics. Pain peaks days-weeks postoperatively and returns to baseline thereafter. Postoperative pain is a significant cause of morbidity and limited data exist about optimal management. Prospective studies are needed to characterize and address TORS-related pain.

Pooled analysis on characteristics of nausea and vomiting in patients receiving trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in clinical studies.

12118 Background: The efficacy and safety profile of T-DXd has been established in patients (pts) with various tumor types, and nausea and vomiting are the most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). T-DXd study protocols were refined over time to recommend prophylaxis (eg, neurokinin or serotonin receptor antagonists and/or steroids) before T-DXd treatment, in line with antiemetic and institutional guidelines. We conducted a pooled, post hoc analysis capturing safety information across tumor types; we report results on nausea and vomiting. While this analysis was not designed to assess antiemetic effectiveness, it reveals the incidence of nausea and vomiting in clinical trials of T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg in more detail across a large dataset. Methods: 1449 pts treated with ≥1 dose of 5.4 mg/kg T-DXd (every 3 wks) were included from 7 phase 1-3 clinical trials in metastatic HER2+ and HER2-low breast cancer, HER2+ gastric cancer, and HER2-mutant non–small cell lung cancer (DESTINY-Breast01, -Breast02, -Breast03, -Breast04, -Lung01, -Lung02, and the first-in-human phase 1 study J101 in multiple tumor types; study enrollment starting 2015-2021). Regardless of antiemetic use (including prophylaxis), the incidence, severity, time to onset, and duration of nausea and vomiting TEAEs were assessed along with event outcomes. Results: Of 1449 pts receiving T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg (median [range] number of 3-wk treatment cycles: 13 [1-60]), 74.6% (n=1081) experienced nausea, and 41.6% (n=603) reported vomiting. Most pts had grade 1/2 nausea (41.2%/27.6%) and/or vomiting (26.2%/12.8%). Grade 3 TEAEs of nausea were reported in 5.8% of pts, with grade ≥3 TEAEs of vomiting observed in 2.6% of pts. By the data cutoff for each trial, 66.9% of pts with nausea and 87.6% with vomiting had their symptoms resolve. Most pts who experienced nausea and vomiting did so during the initial 21 days (cycle 1; n=879 [81.3%] and 336 [55.7%], respectively; 35.8% of all pts received antiemetic prophylaxis at cycle 1); both TEAEs declined notably in subsequent cycles. Rates of drug discontinuation, dose reduction, and drug interruption due to nausea and vomiting were generally low (Table). Conclusions: Most nausea and vomiting events were reported during the first 3 wks of treatment and resolved. Appropriate prophylaxis of nausea and vomiting is a key management strategy and allows pts to benefit from longer treatment durations with T-DXd. Ongoing studies are exploring the implementation and impact of prophylaxis for T-DXd–related emesis.

Introduction: Currently, the conservative management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) involves treating the primary disease and its consequences, as well as improving altered biochemical markers. Evidence suggests that the key management strategy for slowing down the progression of the disease is nephroprotection. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the supply of TCA cycle intermediates in combination with calcium carbonate, calcium lactate, and sodium bicarbonate in patients with CKD. Methodology: A retrospective observational study was undertaken in nephrology and internal medicine clinics in Mexico. The study enrolled patients aged over 18 with stages 3b, 4, and 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) who were not undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT) and had received treatment based on TCA therapy. Results: The study included a total of 55 patients with CKD. The results showed an increase in eGFR from a baseline average of 16.73 ± 1,374 mL/min to a final average of 19.18 ± 1,516 mL/min and a decrease in creatinine values from a baseline average of 4.26 ± 2.44 mg/dL to a final average of 3.77 ± 2.23 mg/dL. These changes had a statistical significance P?0.05.Conclusions: The observed benefits of TCA in combination with sodium bicarbonate, calcium carbonate, and calcium lactate include: 1) Increased eGFR, 2) Decreased serum creatinine, 3) Decreased serum urea, 4) Decreased serum phosphorus, 5) Increased serum hemoglobin, and 6) Maintenance of albumin levels within normal ranges. Adjuvant therapy with the combination of TCA could be a useful tool as a new therapeutic option in patients with CKD.

Remote sensing applications for prescribed burn research

Prescribed burning is a key management strategy within fire-adapted systems, and improved monitoring approaches are needed to evaluate its effectiveness in achieving social-ecological outcomes. Remote sensing provides opportunities to analyse the impacts of prescribed burning, yet a comprehensive understanding of the applications of remote sensing for prescribed burn research is lacking. We conduct a literature review of 120 peer-reviewed publications to synthesise the research aims, methodologies, limitations and future directions of remote sensing for the analysis of prescribed fire. Studies evaluating management outcomes found prescribed burning effective for wildfire risk reduction, yet few analysed co-benefits or trade-offs with other management goals. Most studies use passive, spaceborne, low spatial resolution sensors, characterised in the literature as consistent and accessible data sources but limited in detecting small, low-severity and short-duration fires characteristic of prescribed burns. In contrast, active remote sensing approaches including LiDAR are less frequently employed, but show promise for highly accurate, spatially explicit 3D vegetation and fuel load mapping. Remote sensing advances toward higher spatial resolution, more frequent revisit, denser spectral sampling and more data across the electromagnetic spectrum are critical to advancing prescribed fire research, addressing current methodological gaps, and improving fuels and fire management capacity.

Numerical simulation on in-vessel molten corium behavior with external vessel cooling using smoothed particle hydrodynamics

The in-vessel retention through external reactor vessel cooling (IVR-ERVC) strategy is a key management strategy for early termination of a nuclear severe accident that can threaten the integrity of the reactor vessel. To simulate the physical phenomena of the molten corium, the smoothed particle hydrodynamic (SPH) method is utilized in this study. The SPH method is a Lagrangian computational fluid dynamic (CFD) method that can simulate multi-fluid stratification, turbulence, natural circulation, radiative heat transfer, thermal ablation, and crust formation. To address the external vessel cooling, it is coupled with a conventional 1-D nuclear system analysis method. The 1-D system analysis code can calculate the two-phase natural circulation of cooling water and the convective heat transfer on the external reactor vessel wall. These two simulation codes exchange the temperature and heat flux of the reactor vessel outer wall. This study numerically simulated the IVR-ERVC strategy for a Korean high-power reactor and compared it with the traditional lumped parameter method (LPM). Unlike LPM, this study provides localized detailed data about the thermal hydraulic behavior of molten corium and visualization of phenomena in the IVR-ERVC strategy. This enhances our understanding of the phenomena in IVR-ERVC strategy and introduces new perspectives.

Fuzzy Analysis of Financial Risk Management Strategies for Sustainable Public–Private Partnership Infrastructure Projects in Ghana

Public–private partnership (PPP) is a prominent tool for sustainable infrastructure development. However, the positive contributions of PPPs toward the attainment of sustainable, climate resilience and zero-carbon infrastructure projects are hampered by poor financial risk management. This problem is more prevalent in developing countries like Ghana where private investment inflow has plummeted due to the COVID-19 recession and poor project performance. Thus, this study aims to assess the key financial risk management strategies in ensuring sustainable PPP infrastructure projects in Ghana. The study utilised primary data from PPP practitioners in Ghana solicited through survey questionnaires. Factor analysis, mean scores and fuzzy synthetic analysis are the data analysis techniques for this study. The results revealed that sustainable and green funding models, effective cost-reduction initiatives, a competent team with committed leadership and emerging technologies and regulations constitute the key strategies for managing the financial risks of sustainable PPP infrastructure projects. Although future studies must expand the scope of data gathering, the findings of the study enrich the theoretical understanding of financial risks in sustainable investments in PPP infrastructures. Relevant remedies that will aid the development of practical financial risk management guidelines are also provided in this study for PPP practitioners.

Fuel consumption comparative optimization for parallel hybrid electric vehicle based on PSO and DIRECT algorithms

Fuel consumption is a serious environmental issue. Hybrid electric vehicles “HEVs” are highly energy efficient and reduce emissions. Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicles “PHEVs” are currently the most popular architecture type in the HEV market. A PHEV manages energy between its components based on a proposed fuzzy logic control strategy. This strategy has been well researched and proven to be effective. PHEV control strategy has several simultaneous objectives. Reducing fuel consumption is the main goal of a PHEV while maintaining driving performance. Due to the complex nature of PHEVs, optimization algorithms must be used as the applied control strategies do not yield satisfactory global system efficiency. Several constraints were added as boundary conditions in the optimization process to allow optimized sizing of components not only to achieve goals, but also to meet specific vehicle performance requirements. In an acceleration test, the PHEV must reach a certain speed within a given time. In addition, in terms of reducing fuel consumption and emissions, the PHEV must have a zero energy balance, between the start and end of the cycle, at the battery level. PHEV optimization involves several decision variables, including key powertrain components and energy management strategy “EMS” system parameters. These variables greatly affect vehicle performance. A comparative study of optimization algorithms was conducted to determine the characteristics of PHEV to improve fuel economy. The particle swarm optimization “PSO” algorithm and the divided rectangular “DIRECT” algorithm are applied to the studied PHEV to solve optimization problems specific to fuel consumption. Conducted studies prove the effectiveness of the PSO algorithm compared to the DIRECT algorithm in terms of fuel economy improvement. This research has made it possible to determine the optimal size parameters for components that will make our PHEV more efficient and less polluting.

Sports-related peripheral nerve injuries of the upper limb.

Peripheral nerve injuries in athletes affect the upper limb more commonly than the lower limb. Common mechanisms include compression, traction, laceration, and ischemia. Specific sports can have unique mechanisms of injury and are more likely to be associated with certain neuropathies. Familiarity with these sport-specific variables and recognition of the common presentations of upper limb neuropathic syndromes are important in assessing an athlete with a suspected peripheral nerve injury. Evaluation may require imaging modalities and/or electrodiagnostic testing to confirm a nerve injury. In some cases, diagnostic injections may be needed to differentiate neuropathic versus musculoskeletal etiology. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential for treatment/management and increases the likelihood of a safe return-to-sport and avoidance of long-term functional consequences. Most nerve injuries can be treated conservatively, however, severe or persistent cases may require surgical intervention. This monograph reviews key diagnostic, management, and preventative strategies for sports-related peripheral nerve injuries involving the upper limb.
