Sexual minoritized (SM) adults experience health disparities and report higher rates of trauma history compared to heterosexual adults. This scoping review synthesizes the extant literature that ...investigates associations between trauma and physical health among SM adults. It also describes research instruments utilized to assess trauma in relation to health outcomes among SM adults. We searched CINAHL, LGBT+ Life, PsycINFO, and PubMed to identify studies meeting inclusion criteria: peer-reviewed, English, assessed trauma as an independent variable, and assessed health behaviors or outcomes among SM adults. From 587 nonduplicate articles, 69 full texts were reviewed; 18 met criteria and were included in this review. To enhance rigor, we utilized the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Scoping Reviews checklist. Most (
= 12) of the included studies were cross-sectional. Trauma was assessed 16 different ways, including 9 validated measures, in relation to 5 health behaviors and 17 health conditions. Trauma was operationalized by history of childhood sexual abuse, adverse childhood experiences, lifetime rape, current symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, and lifetime victimization among SM adults. All but one study found associations between trauma and one or more unfavorable health behaviors or outcomes. Studies used widely heterogeneous instruments to assess trauma, health, and SM identity. Greater specification and standardization of measurement is needed, along with contextualized assessments of trauma and its impact on health such as sexual minority stress-related victimization and resilience, and post-traumatic growth and recovery processes.
The aim of this study was to determine the minimal number of particles required for assessing a reliable particle size distribution from images acquired using microscopy. The proposed methodology ...used the one-sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistic to choose an a priori number of particles and the two-sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov test to validate the sub-sampling procedure inherent to microscopic preparation. The methodology was applied to number-based particle size distributions of starch granules.

The experiment with the prototype of liquid krypton electromagnetic calorimeter for the KEDR detector is described. The experiment was carried out at the VEPP-4M collider at the tagged photon beam. ...The tagged photons were obtained in the energy region 50–625 MeV using the ROKK-1M facility. The edges of the bremsstrahlung spectra were used for the energy resolution measurement in the high-energy region up to 4500 MeV. The energy resolution comparable with the resolution of the best crystal calorimeters and the excellent spatial resolution (∼1 mm) have been obtained. The results are in good agreement with the Monte-Carlo simulation.
Charged particle (π/K) separation in the momentum range 0.5–0.7 GeV/c using a new method of shape analysis of the signal from a liquid krypton ionization chamber has been studied experimentally. The ...detector has been exposed to pions and protons at the T11 test beam at CERN PS. The shape of preamplifier output signal has been recorded by a waveform digitizer and differentiated to obtain multiple measurements of induced current inside a 2 cm gap. Results on particle separation are presented and compared with a Monte Carlo simulation.

The liquid krypton calorimeter for the KEDR-VEPP-4M experiment is described. The experimental results with a prototype, obtained at the tagged photon beam of VEPP-4M in the photon energy region ...between 50 and 4500 MeV, are presented. The results on the energy resolution are in a good agreement with the Monte-Carlo expectations and are equal to 6% and 2% at 100 and 1000 MeV respectively. The spatial resolution is about 1–1.5 mm in a wide energy region and agrees with the expected spatial resolution.

Malonaldehyde content was estimated in smoked salmon fillets by three methods using different derivatization procedures and detection techniques. The results show the significance of derivatization ...conditions with respect to the content of the so-called free malonaldehyde
Il contenuto di malonaldeide è stato determinato in filetti di salmone affumicato con tre metodi che prevedono procedure di derivatizzazione e tecniche di rivelazione differenti. Lo scopo è stato quello di evidenziare l'importanza delle condizioni di derivatizzazione nei confronti del contenuto di malonaldeide cosiddetta libera
Five adult patients admitted to ICU, with respiratory failure, required endotracheal intubation and respiratory support. They were treated with ceftazidime because of lower respiratory tract ...infections. All patients were given ceftazidime at 1, 2 and 3 g dosages in a randomized sequence and timed serum and bronchial secretion samples collected. Mean peak serum concentrations of 60.3, 148.7 and 224.8 mg/L were found in the three treatment groups and mean trough levels of 1.02, 1.85 and 1.63 mg/L respectively. Ceftazidime appeared rapidly in bronchial secretions reaching mean maximal concentrations of 2.2, 4.81 and 5.69 mg/L in the first sampling period (0-2 h). Serum and bronchial secretions AUCs have been calculated showing that both almost doubled their values between 1 and 2 g dosing, while between 2 and 3 g doses only a moderate and non-significant increase were found. On the basis of these results, the existence of a saturable transport mechanism for ceftazidime from serum to bronchial secretions can be postulated.
