Obedience

35.2K
According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation,...

Bystander Effect

The discussion of bullying highlights the problem of witnesses not intervening to help a victim. This is a common occurrence, as the following well-publicized event demonstrates. In 1964, in Queens, New York, a 19-year-old woman named Kitty Genovese was attacked by a person with a knife near the back entrance to her apartment building and again in the hallway inside her apartment building. When the attack occurred, she screamed for help numerous times and eventually died from her stab wounds.

Amyloid Fibrils03:03

Amyloid Fibrils

11.7K
Amyloid fibrils are aggregates of misfolded proteins.  Under most circumstances, misfolded proteins are either refolded by chaperone proteins or degraded by the proteasome. However, in the case of a mutation or a disease, these proteins can accumulate to form large clusters and often further assemble to form elongated fibers, called fibrils. 
Amyloid deposits were observed as early as 1639 in the liver and the spleen.   In 1854, Rudolph Virchow performed iodine staining,...

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    U.S. Army parachute fatalities from 2010-2015 were primarily due to blunt force trauma. Common causes included improper exits and parachute malfunctions during static-line operations using the T-11 parachute.

    Area of Science:

    • Military Medicine
    • Aerospace Safety
    • Trauma Research

    Background:

    • Limited recent research exists on U.S. military parachute fatalities despite high operational volume.
    • A new military parachute (T-11) was introduced in 2010, necessitating updated safety analyses.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze U.S. Army parachute fatalities from 2010 to 2015.
    • To identify common causes, injury patterns, and contributing factors in military parachuting deaths.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of U.S. Army Combat Readiness Center parachute fatality investigative records (2010-2015).
    • Collection of de-identified data on causes, injuries, and demographic, environmental, and mission factors.
    • Descriptive analysis of 13 included fatality cases.

    Main Results:

    • Thirteen fatalities met inclusion criteria, predominantly during static-line operations with the T-11 parachute from a C-17 aircraft.
    • Leading causes included improper exit (33%), unstable body position (33%), entanglement (11%), parachute malfunction (11%), and being dragged (11%).
    • Blunt force trauma was the cause of death in 69% of cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Military parachute fatalities result from a combination of human error, equipment issues, and environmental factors.
    • Blunt force trauma is the expected lethal injury in parachute operations.
    • This study highlights critical factors for military leaders and suggests future research should incorporate total jump data for risk assessment.
