Emergency Department Workload and Crowding During a Major Electronic Health Record Breakdown

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2019
Background: Emergency Departments (EDs) today rely heavily on Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and associated support systems. EHR updates are known to be associated with adverse events, but reports on the consequences of breakdowns in EDs are lacking ...

Motivation crowding in real consumption decisions: Who is messing with my groceries? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present evidence of crowding out of intrinsic motivation in real purchasing decisions from a field experiment in a large supermarket chain. We compare three instruments, a label, a subsidy and a neutral price change, in their ability to induce ...

Emergency department and hospital crowding: causes, consequences, and cures [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Emergency Medicine, 2019
Overcrowding with associated delays in patient care is a problem faced by emergency departments (EDs) worldwide. ED overcrowding can be the result of poor ED department design and prolonged throughput due to staffing, ancillary service performance, and ...

Crowding, social distancing, and mask-wearing: effects on risk perception and distancing behavior in retail

open access: yesRevista Eletrônica de Ciência Administrativa, 2023
This article verified how the use of a mask moderates the effect of crowding on the perception of health risk and influences distancing behavior. Based on the Social Impact Theory, two experiments were conducted.

Feeling crowded yet?: crowd simulations for VR [PDF]

open access: yes2016 IEEE Virtual Humans and Crowds for Immersive Environments (VHCIE), 2016
With advances in virtual reality technology and its multiple applications, the need for believable, immersive virtual environments is increasing. Even though current computer graphics methods allow us to develop highly realistic virtual worlds, the main element failing to enhance presence is autonomous groups of human inhabitants.

Efficiency droop in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well light-emitting diodes with nonuniform current spreading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We demonstrate that the efficiency droop phenomenon in multiple quantum well InGaN/GaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs) may be connected to the current crowding effect.

A physicochemical perspective of aging from single-cell analysis of pH, macromolecular and organellar crowding in yeast

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Cellular aging is a multifactorial process that is characterized by a decline in homeostatic capacity, best described at the molecular level. Physicochemical properties such as pH and macromolecular crowding are essential to all molecular processes in ...

Torso Crowds

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2017
We present a novel dense crowd simulation method. In real crowds of high density, people manoeuvring the crowd need to twist their torso to pass between others. Our proposed method does not use the traditional disc-shaped agent, but instead employs capsule-shaped agents, which enables us to plan such torso orientations.

Stocking Density Affects Stress and Anxious Behavior in the Laying Hen Chick During Rearing

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
The recent increases in stocking density, in extreme cases resulting in ‘crowding’, have a major impact on poultry welfare. In contrast to available research on adult laying hens, there is a gap in the literature studying the rearing phase ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.
