Papers
National patterns of heart failure hospitalizations and mortality by sex and age
Fatima Rodriguez,Fatima Rodriguez,Yun Wang,Caitlin E. Johnson,JoAnne M. Foody,JoAnne M. Foody +5 more
TL;DR: A U-shaped relationship between age and in-hospital mortality during an HF hospitalization is found, such that young adults have similar mortality rates to older adults.

Design and performance of the prototype Schwarzschild-Couder telescope camera
TL;DR: The Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (pSCT) as discussed by the authors is based on a dual mirror optics design which reduces the plate scale and allows for the use of silicon photomultipliers as photodetectors.

Community-Level Cardiovascular Risk Factors Impact Geographic Variation in Cardiovascular Disease Hospitalizations for Women
Fatima Rodriguez,Fatima Rodriguez,Yun Wang,Sahar Naderi,Caitlin E. Johnson,JoAnne M. Foody,JoAnne M. Foody +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that geographic variations in AMI, CHF, and stroke hospitalizations for women may be partially explained by community-level CV risk factors, which suggests that interventions to reduce CVD should be tailored to the unique risk profile and needs of high-risk communities.
