Finding Power in My Panic Attacks
Trouble started in the form of rivulets of sweat dampening the waistband of my underwear. It was a bluebird afternoon in Phoenix in December of 2020, mid 60s, desert dry, and my heart was jackhammering against my ribcage. Breathing felt like I was sucking air through a stir straw. A small ABC News crew was arrayed before me, ready to broadcast the report I’d written that day, but with my vision narrowed to a needle’s eye, I could barely see them. I tried to swallow away the sandiness in my mouth but realized I’d forgotten how. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] “I can’t swallow!...

Energy-economy-environment assessments of refrigerants R152a and R134a in a vapor compression refrigeration system using a variable displacement oil-free linear compressor
This study presents an experimental investigation into the utilization of R152a and R134a refrigerants in a vapor compression refrigeration system employing a variable displacement oil-free linear compressor. The potential for the replacement of R134a with R152a was examined based on energy, environmental, and economic performance analyses. The outcomes indicated that R152a exhibited a higher coefficient of performance (COP) in comparison to R134a under identical operating conditions. Specifically, when the pressure ratio was 2.0 and the piston stroke was 11 mm, R152a's COP was 13.0% higher than R134a. It was also discover...

P151/175 Direct aspiration with EMBOVAC - first clinical experience and clot composition (results the "PERFECT study)
ConclusionThis is the first clinical evaluation of EMBOVAC. Direct aspiration with EMBOVAC as first line therapy resulted in high rates of reperfusion and favorable clinical outcomes. Clot composition analysis can aid in better understanding of the stroke etiology and means for effective clot removal.Disclosure of InterestAcandis (OJ, CL, JF); Microvention (GM, CC, JF); Stryker (GM, CC, JF); Medtronic (GM, CC, JF); Surge2surgery (BG); MIVI (CC); Phenox (CL, JF); Penumbra (CL, JF); GSK (AS); German Ministry of Science & Education and Economy & Innovation, EU, Hamburgische Investitions-/Förderbank, Philips, B...

Chronic Kidney Disease Is Poised To Become The Black Lung of Climate Change
It’s official. July was the world’s hottest month on record, scientists from the European climate monitoring agency confirmed on Aug. 8, a full 1.5°C (2.7°F) warmer than pre-industrial averages, offering a potent taste of what is to come in a world made hotter by climate change. The wildfires and heat waves that wreathed much of the northern hemisphere in smoke this summer? Expect more of the same. The surge in deaths and hospitalization from heat stress and stroke? Ditto. An increase in chronic kidney disease of non-traditional origin? Yup. Wait, what? [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] O...

Extreme Heat Is Endangering America ’ s Workers —And Its Economy
This project was supported by the Pulitzer Center 7 A.M.: COPELAND FARMS—ROCHELLE, GA Just after dawn on a recent July day in Rochelle, Ga., Silvia Moreno Ayala steps into a pair of sturdy work pants, slips on a long-sleeved shirt, and slathers her face and hands with sunscreen. She drapes a flowered scarf over her wide-brimmed hat to protect her neck and back from the punishing rays of the sun. There isn’t much she can do about the humidity, however. Morning is supposed to be the coolest part of the day, but sweat is already pooling in her rubber boots. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] ...

Relative Aerobic Load of Daily Activities After Stroke
CONCLUSION: Individuals after stroke experience a high relative aerobic load during cyclic daily-life activities, despite adopting a slower movement pace than peers with no impairments. Perhaps individuals after stroke limit their movement pace to operate at sustainable relative aerobic load levels at the expense of pace and economy.IMPACT: Improving aerobic capacity through structured aerobic training in a rehabilitation program should be further investigated as a potential intervention to improve mobility and functioning after stroke.PMID:37172129 | PMC:PMC10071588 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzad005

The Interplay Between Walking Speed, Economy, and Stability After Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: People post-stroke appear to prefer walking speeds that are faster than their most stable speed but slower than their most economical speed. The preferred walking speed after stroke appears to balance stability and economy. To encourage faster and more economical walking, deficits in the stable control of the mediolateral motion of the pCoM may need to be addressed.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A416).PMID:36867550 | DOI:10.1097/NPT.0000000000000431
