Overview of first Wendelstein 7-X high-performance operation
Abstract The optimized superconducting stellarator device Wendelstein 7-X (with major radius , minor radius , and plasma volume) restarted operation after the assembly of a graphite heat shield and 10 inertially cooled island divertor modules. This paper reports on the results from the first high-performance plasma operation. Glow discharge conditioning and ECRH conditioning discharges in helium turned out to be important for density and edge radiation control. Plasma densities of with central electron temperatures were routinely achieved with hydrogen gas fueling, frequently terminated by a radiative collapse. In a first stage, plasma densities up to were reached with hydrogen pellet injec…
Premorbid Adjustment and IQ in Patients With First-Episode Psychosis: A Multisite Case-Control Study of Their Relationship With Cannabis Use
Abstract Psychotic patients with a lifetime history of cannabis use generally show better cognitive functioning than other psychotic patients. Some authors suggest that cannabis-using patients may have been less cognitively impaired and less socially withdrawn in their premorbid life. Using a dataset comprising 948 patients with first-episode psychosis (FEP) and 1313 population controls across 6 countries, we examined the extent to which IQ and both early academic (Academic Factor [AF]) and social adjustment (Social Factor [SF]) are related to the lifetime frequency of cannabis use in both patients and controls. We expected a higher IQ and a better premorbid social adjustment in psychotic p…
Evolución de la declaración de la tuberculosis en un área sanitaria de la Comunidad Valenciana desde 1987 hasta 1999
Objetivos La infradeclaracion de la tuberculosis (TBC) es un hecho frecuente a escala mundial que ha sido escasa-mente estudiado en nuestro pais. El objetivo de nuestro es-tudio fue conocer el estado de la declaracion de los casos de TBC en nuestra area sanitaria Material y metodo Desde 1987 a 1999 se estudio de for-ma directa la incidencia y el estado de declaracion de los casos de TBC en nuestra area (censo: 106.632 habitantes). Los casos se obtuvieron desde el registro de EDO, anatomia patologica y bacteriologia, con posterior revision de la historia clinica Resultados Se diagnosticaron 410 casos de TBC, de los cuales 378 eran recientes del area (incidencia media anual: 27 por 100.000 ha…
