Abstract:
30 Background: While research has explored the role of companions (accompanying family members) in medical visits, studies have not examined companions’ involvement in pre-surgical visits. This study explored how companions’ presence impacts communication and satisfaction during pre-surgical visits to discuss major cancer surgery. Methods: Secondary analysis of 61 pre-surgical visit recordings with 8 surgical oncologists at an academic tertiary care hospital. Recordings were analyzed using the Roter Interaction Analysis System, and surgeons and patients completed a post-visit satisfaction ques

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to systematically characterize the content and patterning of companion’s communicative behavior during oncology consultations for older African-American male patients. Companions and family members often play an important role in patient-centered communication for patients with cancer. Despite their disproportionate cancer burden, little is known about how companions facilitate patient-provider communication for older African-American men with cancer. This study represents a secondary qualitative analysis of 14 video-recorded doctor patient-companion medical vis

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Observations of systems hosting close-in (<1 au) giant planets and brown dwarfs (M ≳ 7 MJup) find an excess of binary-star companions, indicating that stellar multiplicity may play an important role in their formation. There is now increasing evidence that some of these objects may have formed via fragmentation in gravitationally unstable discs. We present a suite of 3D smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations of binary-star systems with circumprimary self-gravitating discs, which include a realistic approximation to radiation transport, and extensively explore the companion

The documentary Crip Camp presents a 1970s summer camp for disabled youth as a place of friendship and political dialogues that spawned the American disability rights movement. The film also represented Camp Jened as a haven of racial harmony and inclusion. Jened was not the only American micro-community of disability solidarity and political possibilities that also involved questions of racial politics. Scholars have criticized disability activists and disability studies scholars for neglecting problems of racial oppression. This historical study examines three examples of empowering disabili

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Black widows are millisecond pulsars with low-mass companions, a few per cent the mass of the sun, on orbits of several hours. These companions are presumably the remnants of main-sequence stars that lost their mass through a combination of Roche lobe overflow and ablation by the host pulsar’s high-energy radiation. While ablation itself is too weak to significantly reduce the mass of the companion star, the ablated wind couples to its magnetic field, removes orbital angular momentum, and thus maintains stable Roche lobe overflow. We use the mesa stellar evolution code, complemented b

A labor companion of choice during childbirth is crucial for improving women’s birth experience and confidence to give birth. Labor companions provide various benefits, including enhanced communication, emotional support, non-pharmacological pain relief, and better healthcare. However, little is known about the supportive actions of labor companions with respect to women’s needs during labor and birth, as well as healthcare providers’ perceptions of labor companions. Therefore, this study was conducted to explore the perceptions of healthcare providers and women regarding labor companions. The

In this thesis I present a new near-infrared photometric search for unresolved ultracool companions and debris disks to white dwarfs in UKIDSS DR5. 24 DA white dwarfs were found with multiple excesses indicative of a low mass companion, with 7 of these having a predicted mass in the range associated with brown dwarfs. The results of this survey show that the unresolved brown dwarf companion fraction to DA white dwarfs is 0.5 ≤ fWD+BD ≤ 1.8 ± 0.7%. I also calculate the unresolved L-dwarf companion fraction to be 0.5 ≤ fWD+dL ≤ 1.5 ± 0.6%, which is much higher than the previous estimate of Farih

Abstract:
American culture tends to consider imaginary friends (or imaginal companions, as I refer to them) as a folk belief belonging in the realm of childhood. If an adult believes in imaginal companions, they are potentially subject to the social stigma of psychological labeling. The mass media reflects this perception of reality and influences social interactions regarding experiences and beliefs in imaginal companions. Fear of this social stigma limits folk group size, which potentially creates an issue with informant group size. I gathered my informants from a group of friends, whom I interviewed

The way we understand and engage with artifacts is parallel to the way we interpret and interact with each other. A constant source of comfort and delight, frustration and anxiety, their personalities inform our everyday dialogues and experiences. Designed artifacts assume engaging and pleasurable personalities when they transcend materials, challenge perceptions, and garner active, reflective interactions. Through

Abstract:
Millisecond Pulsars (MSPs) are fast rotating, highly magnetized neutron stars. According to the "canonical recycling scenario", MSPs form in binary systems containing a neutron star which is spun up through mass accretion from the evolving companion. Therefore, the final stage consists of a binary made of a MSP and the core of the deeply peeled companion. In the last years, however an increasing number of systems deviating from these expectations has been discovered, thus strongly indicating that our understanding of MSPs is far to be complete.
