The difficult discussion on the deactivation of implantable cardioverter devices at the end of life: a systematic review

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 733-760, April 2025.
Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

Stability Evaluation and Parametric Optimization of Coal‐Concrete Composite Bearing Systems Under Mine‐Water‐Induced Deterioration: Experiments and FEINN Analysis

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Mine‐water immersion tests reveal pronounced coal weakening (vs. minor concrete degradation), identifying coal pillars as the stability‐limiting component in composite dams. A coupled FEINN framework quantifies extreme‐pressure stability and ranks multi‐parameter designs via a normalized multi‐indicator scheme, enabling optimized dam configuration for ...

Using a pruned basis and a sparse collocation grid with more points than basis functions to do efficient and accurate MCTDH calculations with general potential energy surfaces

We propose a new collocation multi-configuration time-dependent Hartree (MCTDH) method. It reduces point-set error by using more points than basis functions.

Recovery Factor of Pure Helium Injection in Depleted Gas Reservoirs and Its Influencing Factors

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study employs compositional numerical simulation to systematically investigate the effects of injection rate, production rate, storage duration, and injection‐production scheme on pure helium recovery in depleted gas reservoirs. Low injection rates reduce viscous fingering while high production rates maximize near‐wellbore helium extraction ...

Convergence of collocation schemes for nonlinear index 1 DAEs with a singular point

, 2010
We analyze the convergence behavior of collocation schemes applied to approximate solutions of BVPs in nonlinear index 1 DAEs, which exhibit a critical point at the left boundary.

The Learning Function of Evaluation: A Conceptual Framing

New Directions for Evaluation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, we set out a conceptual overview of what we call learning in the evaluation ecosystem to depict the interplay between external influences, organizational and community factors, and learning levers (e.g. capacity building, systems thinking).

Mechanistic Understanding of Nickel Catalyzed Urea Oxidation Reaction to Cyanate and Nitrite

Exploration, EarlyView.
The urea oxidation reaction (UOR) is a promising alternative to oxygen evolution reaction (OER) for energy efficient hydrogen production, yet its reaction mechanism remains controversial because many proposed pathways have not been directly correlated with experimentally verified products and intermediates.

Keeping their powder dry: Purity, pollution, and handgun ownership among Jewish women in Israel

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the gendered practices through which Jewish women in Israel experience and negotiate personal handgun ownership in everyday life. Drawing on interviews, participant observation in gun‐related spaces, and analysis of women‐only online forums, we explore the expanding participation of Jewish women in civilian gun ownership,
