TOPIC: Critical Care TYPE: Fellow Case Reports INTRODUCTION: Cholinergic toxicity can result from ingestion of generic pesticides, which contain organophosphates or carbamates. These compounds act by inhibiting red blood cell acetylcholinesterase (RBC AChE), resulting in an overabundance acetylcholine at the neural synapse and neuromuscular junction. Early suspicion for this toxidrome is essent...

The fortuitous discovery of a middle Archaic burial at an open site on the shore of Utah Lake in the eastern Great Basin, therefore, is important as it provides scarce information about: 1) burial patterns; 2) the health and stature of indigenous populations; 3) ideology; and 4) the relationship between dogs and people during the mid-Archaic Period.

Facial composite images are often used in the criminal investigation process to facilitate the identification of an offender. Research generally shows that the effectiveness of various composite systems in generating accurate facial representations is low, however these findings do not reflect a number of newly developed computerized systems. This study investigated the prevalence of composite ...

Background: Real-world evidence on achieving treatment targets with apremilast (APR) in patients (pts) PsA is limited. In the phase 3 PALACE trials, pts reached remission (REM)/low disease activity (LDA) at 52 wks most frequently when early APR was initiated and were moderate activity, as measured by Clinical Disease Activity Index for (cDAPSA) score. APPRAISE, we assessed effectiveness/tolerab...

Discussions of N fertilizer needs for corn (Zea mays L.) usually are based on the assumption that economic optimum rates (EORs) of N provide the best benchmark to indicate the rates most likely to maximize profits for producers. We describe methods for calculating some additional benchmarks and illustrate how efforts to improve N management could be advanced by recognizing several alternative b...

This paper is an empirical study to estimate the risk premium or compensating differential for law enforcement officers. First, we use the human capital model to form a baseline regression using data from the Current Population Survey from 1989 to 1999. The second regression includes crime rates from around the United States to determine how the risk premium of officers' change as crime rates r...
