Gaussian mixtures closest to a given measure via optimal transport by Lasserre, Jean B.

“…If the original measure $\mu $ is not a Gaussian mixture with parameters $(\mathbf{m},\mathbf{\Sigma })\in S$, then a strictly positive distance is detected at a finite step of the hierarchy. If the original measure $\mu $ is a Gaussian mixture with parameters $(\mathbf{m},\mathbf{\Sigma })\in S$, then all semidefinite relaxations of the hierarchy have same zero optimal value. …”

Can utilization of the venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide difference improve patient outcomes in cardiogenic shock? A narrative review by Oskar Kjærgaard Hørsdal

“…Traditional hemodynamic markers like CO measurements, monitoring of mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO₂) and lactate levels have limitations, particularly in detecting microcirculatory dysfunction. The venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide tension difference (V-A PCO₂ gap, also known as P(V-A)CO2 and delta PCO2 or ∆PCO2) has been established as a sensitive marker of tissue perfusion and CO adequacy in septic shock but lacks extensive exploration in CS.This narrative review evaluates the possible uses of V-A PCO₂ gap in contemporary management of CS. …”
