Association of the ICH Score With Withdrawal of Life‐Sustaining Treatment Over a 10‐Year Period
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) score was developed to enhance provider communication and facilitate early severity assessment. We examined the association of the ICH score with mortality and withdrawal of life‐sustaining treatment (WLST) in a large, multicenter stroke registry, and evaluated temporal trends in these associations.

Thermal desorption of mercury from lignite in a high-temperature furnace and in power plant mills
International Journal of Coal Science & Technology, 2022 In this article, the binding forms of two lignite samples are determined by thermal desorption using a high-temperature furnace. Each mercury compound, such as HgCl2, has a specific binding strength whose decomposition requires a certain thermal energy ...
