Abstract:

Background: Drinking alcohol during pregnancy can result in severe developmental disorders in the child. Symptoms of the fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) comprise growth deficiencies, abnormal facial phenotype and damage or dysfunction of the central nervous system. Numerous diagnostic methods for facial phenotyping in FASD exist, but diagnoses are still difficult. Our aim was to find additional and objective methods for the verification of FAS(D). Methods: Three-dimensional dental models of 60 children (30 FAS and 30 controls) were used to metrically determine maximum palatal depths at the median palatine raphe. Three-dimensional facial scans were taken, and vertical distances of the face were measured at five defined facial landmarks (FP1–FP5) for each child. Results: Mean palatal height, total facial length (FP1–FP5) as well as FP4–FP5 did not significantly differ between the FAS group and the control group. Comparing vertical facial subdivisions, however, resulted in significant differences for distances FP1 to FP2 (p = 0.042, FAS > controls), FP2 to FP3 (p < 0.001, FAS < controls), FP3 to FP4 (p < 0.001, FAS > controls) and FP3 to FP5 (p = 0.007, FAS > controls). Conclusions: Metric vertical measurements of the face can be used as additional objective criteria for FAS diagnoses. However, no significant differences were reported for palatal depth evaluation in the specific age range tested in the present study.

Abstract:

O estudo avaliou as características físico-químicas e sensoriais do pão de forma com adição de 0%(FP0), 5%(FP5), 10%(FP10) e 15%(FP15) de farinha de palma forrageira, em substituição à farinha de trigo branca. Os pães foram submetidos a análise sensorial de 106 (cento e seis) julgadores não treinados. O pão FP5 foi o mais aceito, com um índice de aceitabilidade de 75%. Foram realizadas análises de compostos fenólicos totais e atividade antioxidante pelo método da captura do radical ABTS•⁺, em FP0 e FP5, entretanto, as amostras analisadas não apresentaram, estatisticamente, diferença significativa entre si pelo teste de Tukey (p<0,05). Em FP5, a farinha da palma forrageira aumentou o teor de fibra e de micronutrientes, tais como cálcio (Ca), magnésio (Mg), potássio (K), zinco (Zn) e vitamina C, sem alterar os parâmetros texturométricos (p<0,05). O pão formulado com a farinha da palma forrageira pode ser uma alternativa de baixo custo para incorporar nutrientes importantes na dieta humana, entretanto, é necessário realizar estudos sobre a presença de fatores antinutricionais. Considerando o índice de aceitabilidade alcançado pelo pão de forma, incorporação da farinha da palma forrageira possibilita o aumento de micronutrientes importantes na dieta humana em valores bem superiores aos valores encontrados no pão de forma convencional. Apesar de a palma forrageira possuir coloração verde, essa característica não ofereceu resistência à aceitação do pão de forma por parte dos potenciais consumidores do produto e pode ser atrativo para crianças na fase pré-escolar.

Abstract:

The research activity was conducted in major intensive yard long bean growing areas, such as Jessore, Dhaka, Narsingdi, Comilla, and Chittagong of Bangladesh to know farmers practices (FPs) for managing major insect pests of yard long bean during March 2009 to October 2009 in the farmers fields. The study comprised survey of sample farmers through intensive field visit for field data collection and inspection. A total of 5 farmers practices (FPs) were identified viz., Farmers Practice 1 (FP1) comprised chemicals plus mechanical plus cultural plus field sanitation, FP2 comprised chemicals plus cultural plus field sanitation, FP3 consisted of combination of chemicals plus field sanitation, FP4 having combination of mechanical plus cultural plus field sanitation and FP5 utilized combination of cultural plus field sanitation. Among the sample farmers, 81.33% practiced chemicals plus non-chemical methods, while 18.67% practiced only non-chemical methods. Considering infestation level, pod yield, BCR, and arthropod pests diversity, the performance of FP1 (chemical + mechanical + cultural + field sanitation methods) was adjudged as the best for managing pod borer and aphid and was revealed as the most suitable option (94.10% infestation reduction) for managing major insect pests of yard long bean in those areas of Bangladesh.

Abstract:

Gas-cooled fast reactor (GFR) research is directed towards fulfilling the ambitious goals of Generation IV (Gen IV), that is, to develop a safe, sustainable, reliable, proliferation-resistant and economic nuclear energy system. The research is directed towards developing the GFR as an economic electricity generator, with good safety and sustainability characteristics. Fast reactors maximise the usefulness of uranium resources by breeding plutonium and can contribute to minimising both the quantity and radiotoxicity nuclear waste by actinide transmutation in a closed fuel cycle. Transmutation is particularly effective in the GFR core owing to its inherently hard neutron spectrum. Further, GFR is suitable for hydrogen production and process heat applications through its high core outlet temperature. As such GFR can inherit the non-electricity applications that will be developed for thermal high temperature reactors in a sustainable manner. The Euratom organisation provides a route by which researchers in all European states, and other non-European affiliates, can contribute to the Gen IV GFR system. This paper summarises the achievements of Euratom's research into the GFR system, starting with the 5th Framework programme (FP5) GCFR project in 2000, through FP6 (2005 to 2009) and looking ahead to the proposed activities within the 7th Framework Programme (FP7).

Abstract:

The results on the possibility of utilization of post-extractionation residues of green leaves of balsamic poplar (Populus balsamifera L.) by xylotrophic basidiomycetes Fomitopsis pinicola (strain Fp5–15) are presented. It was found that the most favorable for the growth and development of fungi is the residue after the extraction of alcohol-soluble substances. High growth parameters of fungi are observed on this substrate, such as the growth rate, which is 3.9 mm/day and the growth coefficient is 15.6. During the biocoversion of Fp5–15, F. pinicola utilizes up to 30 % of extractive substances and polysaccharides. At the same time, the utilization of easily hydrolyzable polysaccharides is 24 %, difficult-to-hydrolyze‑30 %. Also, in the process of destruction, up to 12 % of lignin substances are disposed of. The decrease in the mass of the substrate after the bioconversion process is 14 %. It is noted that in the process of bioconversion, the substrate is enriched with protein (up to 24 %)

Abstract:

Radiocarbon age determinations and stratigraphy suggest that the deposits in Black Creek Swamp on Kangaroo Island record 3 phases of deposition and associated soil development which spanned at least the last 20,000 yr. Four new 14C age determinations on bulk soil organic matter and their stratigraphic context are presented in this paper. Three of these age determinations (FP6: 15,687 ± 110 BP [WK11487]; FP7: 16,326 ± 385 BP [WK11488]; and FP8: 17,618 ± 447 BP [WK11489]), are from the organic-rich fossil layer located 45–75 cm below the current floodplain surface. The fourth, a much younger date, FP5: 5589 ± 259 BP (WK11486), was obtained from the base of the overlying modern soil. The dates for the fossil layer increase systematically with depth and correlate well with 5 previous 14C dates (Hope et al., unpublished), ranging between 15,040 ± 120 BP and 19,000 ± 310 BP. This suggests that the data set represents a possible minimum age of the bulk organic matter, and considering the high organic matter contents of approximately 8%, has implications for the age of the megafauna buried in this layer. The overlying modern soil, with its much younger date, contains lower levels of organic matter (3–7%) and gastropods not seen in the fossil layer. This suggests a substantial change in environmental conditions probably due to an alteration in the floodplain drainage conditions. This chronological and sedimentalogical discontinuity indicates that 2 distinct depositional regimes existed and were separated by up to 10,000 14C yr. A calcareous, sandy silt deposit underlying the fossil layer is a calcarenite deposit with low total organic content and is considered the base of the section; it suggests a third separate depositional episode. As such, the Black Creek Swamp in the southwest corner of Kangaroo Island formed intermittently over at least the last 20,000 yr during 3 distinct depositional phases, one of which was the formation of the fossil-laden, organic-rich floodplain surface, which has a possible minimum age of approximately 15,000 to 19,000 BP.

Abstract. Regular observations in the Black Sea basin started in the past century, and quite good multidisciplinary observing system operated in the 70–80ies based on the ship observations. Modern oceanographic observing system in the basin is built according to the GOOS principles. It includes space remote sensing observations, data of free floating buoys and costal observational network. Integration of the observing system and its real-time operation were started within the framework of the FP5 ARENA project and later were improved during the FP6 ASCABOS project. The coastal observing system which includes time series from the coastal platforms and multidisciplinary surveys of the coastal areas fulfilled by the research vessels was set up during the ECOOP. Paper describes all components of the Black Sea observing system operated during the ECOOP project and its applications in the framework of the project.

Abstract:

Endophytic fungi that are classified into the genus Neotyphodium have developed into a very unique niche. Their specific host plants are the fescues and ryegrasses. Through fungal biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, the host plant receives several benefits. These benefits include resistance to insects such as aphids, chinch bug, and argentine stem weevil, increased drought tolerance, and increased competiveness. These secondary metabolites comprise four groups of alkaloids. The alkaloids are loline, peramine, Lolitrem B, and ergovaline. The quantitative alkaloid profile is unique for each isolate. The characterization of these endophytes is necessary for identification of specific isolates. We report the characterization of ten endophytic strains Lp1, Lp2, Lp3, Lm4, Lm5, Fp6, Fp7 Fp8, Fp9, Fp10. The characterization of each isolate includes: morphology, sporulation, growth rates, microsatellite fingerprint, and alkaloid profile. The isolated colonies bear resemblance to raised brain-like structures and are yellow to tan in color. Growth rates range between 0.1 and 0.25 mm/day. No colonies produced any form of sporulation. Fp6 was found to have the highest loline concentration of any isolate. AFLP analysis was performed on the isolates to test for relatedness. Distinct clades were formed and grouped by host. The main groups were those isolated from Lolium or Festuca varieties. Isolates Fp8 and Fp9 were most related to each other, and have also been found to be doubly infected. The double infection is described to be Phialophora-like, due to the presence of thin highly branched hyphae when observed under light microscopy with aniline blue staining.

Abstract:

9105 Background: It is well-documented that treatment side-effects cause physical and psychosocial de-conditioning in cancer patient. Decrease in functional performance (FP), as measured by activities of daily living (ADL), is a major contributor to a decline in patient quality of life (QOL). Relatively little information is available on the effects of a specific exercise regimen targeting muscle groups/energy systems involved in FP. Methods: 30 male and female cancer patients receiving treatment were randomly assigned to either the experimental (EX) or control (C) groups. EX participated in two exercise sessions per week for 17 weeks. Sessions included a combination of aerobic, resistance, flexibility, and balance training. C did not participate in any structured exercise. Data were collected post-diagnosis (1), post- surgery (2), at 9 weeks post-diagnosis (3), and at 17 weeks post-diagnosis (4). Measurements included resting heart rate (RHR), fatigue, physical activity level (PA), QOL, and the FP tasks of: treadmill walking (TRED), stair climb/descent (STAIR), lifting/carrying (CARRY), sit to stand (STAND), and balance (REACH). Results: Factor analysis yielded four variables: FP1 = [(0.5 × TRED) - (0.5 × RHR)]; FP2 = [(STAIR) + (CARRY) + (STAND)]/3]; FP3 = [(0.333 × QOL) + (0.333 × PA) - (0.333 × FT)]; FP4 = REACH. Repeated-measures ANOVA with within-subjects contrasts detected significant differences between groups. No significant differences existed at 1 or from 1 to 2. Significant differences were found on all variables from 1 to 4, 1 to 3 and 3 to 4 (p < 0.001) (significant improvement for experimental group vs. significant decline for control group). Mean changes for the experimental vs. control groups from 1 to 4 are as follows: FP1 (+65.5 vs. -29.5); FP2 (-5.3 vs. +3.6); FP3 (+1.8 vs. -3.4); FP4 (+1.7 vs. -0.81). Conclusions: Specifically-designed exercise interventions promote positive adaptations that elicit significant improvement in ADL, QOL, and decrease fatigue. Prescriptive exercise is a viable therapy during treatment for mitigating side effects and avoiding de-conditioning. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract:

The structure, tautomerization pathways, vibrational spectra, and photochemistry of 2-amino-4-methylthiazole (AMT) molecule were studied by matrix isolation FTIR spectroscopy and DFT calculations undertaken at the B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,3pd) level of theory. The most stable tautomer with the five-membered ring stabilized by two double C=C and C=N bonds, was detected in argon matrices after deposition. When the AMT/Ar matrices were exposed to 265 nm selective irradiation, three main photoproducts, N-(1-sulfanylprop-1-en-2-yl)carbodiimide (fp1), N-(1-thioxopropan-2-yl)carbodiimide (fp2) and N-(2-methylthiiran-2-yl)carbodiimide (fp3), were photoproduced by a cleavage of the CS–CN bond together with hydrogen atom migration. The minor photoreaction caused by the cleavage of the CS–CC bond and followed by hydrogen migration formed 2-methyl-1H-azirene-1-carbimidothioic acid (fp15). We have also found that cleavage of the CS–CN bond followed by disruption of the N–C bond produced cyanamide (fp11) and the C(CH3)=CH–S biradical that transformed into 2-methylthiirene (fp12) and further photoreactions produced 1-propyne-1-thiole (fp13) or methylthioketene (fp14). Cleavage of the CS–CC bond followed by disruption of the N–C bond produced propyne (fp22) and the S–C(NH2)=N biradical that transformed into 3-aminethiazirene (fp23); further photoreactions produced N-sulfanylcarbodiimide (fp25). As a result of these transformations, several molecular complexes were identified as photoproducts besides new molecules in the AMT photolysis process.

Abstract:

The present study was carried out to evaluate the phytoplankton community and water quality in four parallel fishponds (FP1 to FP4) during one year. Some abiotic parameters of water column and phytoplankton was sampled in four sites, one in each fishpond. Similarity analysis showed that FP2 fishpond was markedly different for the others ponds with regard to phytoplankton community. Conductivity, orthophosphate, temperature, TSS and hardness parameters were significantly different (p<0.05) between fishponds and all limnological parameters were significantly different (p<0.01) among period (months). Organic matter and phosphorus of the sediment were significantly different (p<0.01) only among fishponds. In current study Chlorophyceae and Bacillariophyceae occurred in most months. Cyanobacteria density in April and May was higher in all fishponds, at FP3 represented 71.4% in April and FP1 represented 78.7% in May of total reported, with chlorophyll-a content lower than 41 mg.L−1. The physical and chemical parameters of fishponds water constituted relations between the parameters and algae occurrence. The present study however, indicated that Cyanobacteria was more frequent in the fishponds after the fish grow-out period (April), and the water quality should be monitored more frequently in this period, due to the high total phosphorus, orthophosphate and chlorophyll-acontents.

Abstract:

The objective of this research, part of the EU FP5 REBASDO Program, is to examine the effects of second order wave diffraction in wave run-up around the bow of a vessel (FPSO) in random seas. In this work, the nonlinear wave scattering problem is solved by employing a quadratic boundary element method. A computer program, DIFFRACT, has been developed and recently extended to deal with unidirectional and directional bichromatic input wave systems, calculating second order wave diffraction loads and free surface elevation under regular waves and focused wave groups. The second order wave interaction with a vessel in a unidirectional focused wave group is presented in this paper. Comparison of numerical results and experimental measurements conducted at Imperial College shows excellent agreement. The second order free surface components at the bow of the ship are very significant, and cannot be neglected if one requires accurate prediction of the wave-structure interaction; otherwise a major underestimation of the wave impact on the structure could occur.

Abstract:

Abstract The most prominent problem in virtual reality (VR) technology is that users may experience motion-sickness-like symptoms when they immerse into a VR environment. These symptoms are recognized as visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) or virtual reality motion sickness. The objectives of this study were to investigate the association between the electroencephalogram (EEG) and subjectively rated VIMS level (VIMSL) and find EEG markers for VIMS evaluation. A VR-based vehicle-driving simulator was used to induce VIMS symptoms, and a wearable EEG device with four electrodes (the Muse) was used to collect EEG data. The results suggest that individual tolerance, susceptibility, and recoverability to VIMS varied largely among subjects; the following markers were shown to be significantly different from no-VIMS and VIMS states (P < 0.05): (1) means of gravity frequency (GF) for theta@FP1, alpha@TP9, alpha@FP2, alpha@TP10, and beta@FP1; (2) standard deviation of GF for alpha@TP9, alpha@FP1, alpha@FP2, alpha@TP10, and alpha@(FP2‐FP1); (3) standard deviation of power spectral entropy for FP1; (4) means of Kolmogorov complexity (KC) for TP9, FP1, and FP2. These results also demonstrate that it is feasible to perform VIMS evaluation using an EEG device with a few electrodes.

Abstract:

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) was a condition beginning before more serious deterioration, leading to Alzheimer’s dementia (AD). MCI detection was needed to determine the patient's therapeutic management. Analysis of electroencephalogram (EEG) coherence is one of the modalities for MCI detection. Therefore, this study investigated the inter and intra-hemispheric coherence over 16 EEG channels in the frequency range of 1-30 Hz. The simulation results showed that most of the electrode pair coherence in MCI patients have decreased compared to normal elderly subjects. In inter hemisphere coherence, significant differences (p<0.05) were found in the FP1-FP2 electrode pairs. Meanwhile, significant differences (p<0.05) were found in almost all pre-frontal area connectivity of the intra-hemisphere coherence pairs. The electrode pairs were FP2-F4, FP2-T4, FP1-F3, FP1-F7, FP1-C3, FP1-T3, FP1-P3, FP1-T5, FP1-O1, F3-O1, and T3-T5. The decreased coherence in MCI patients showed the disconnection of cortical connections as a result of the death of the neurons. Furthermore, the coherence value can be used as a multimodal feature in normal elderly subjects and MCI. It is hoped that current studies may be considered for early detection of Alzheimer’s in a larger population.

Abstract:

The vegetative part of coniferous and deciduous wood plants is a unique source of natural compounds. The natural renewability of woody plants makes them an inexhaustible raw material for the production of biologically active substances. In the process of their production, about 70% of the non-recyclable post-extraction residue of the vegetative part remains, which is used as a feed additive. Since many plant wastes have a low protein content, in which essential amino acids are most often the limiting ones, they must be enriched with microbial protein, in particular the protein of basidial fungi. For this purpose, the fungi Fomitopsis pinicola (sw.) P. KARST (Fp5-15) were used in this work, since they are the least demanding to plant substrates and have high growth indicators. The purpose of this study was to study the amino acid composition of products obtained as a result of bioconversion of post-extraction residues of fir tree greens and the vegetative part of balsamic poplar (buds, litter). The analysis of the amino acid composition of the products showed that the protein score increases during the biodegradation process (phenylalanine and tyrosine-by 35 %, threonine – by 37.5%). Also, high amounts of glycine, alanine, histidine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid were found in the products of biodegradation. In terms of the content of a number of amino acids, the resulting products are superior to cereals and feed products based on the vegetative part of woody plants. Thus, the results obtained show the possibility of using fermentation products as protein feed additives.

Genetic parameters for production and feeding behaviour traits in crossbred steers fed a finishing diet at different ages. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 93: 79–87. Because cattle can be raised postweaning under several feeding regimes, this study examined the consistency of phenotypic and genetic parameters of some production and feeding behaviour traits between two feeding periods that beef cattle received a finisher diet. Crossbred steers (n=851) were used for feeding trials from 2002 to 2009 where the steers received a finisher diet either during the fall–winter season (FP1) or during the winter–spring season (FP2). The steers evaluated in FP2 received a backgrounding diet in FP1. Traits examined include dry matter intake (DMI), average daily gain (ADG), gain: feed ratio (G:F), residual feed intake (RFI), and ultrasound measures of backfat thickness (UBF), rib-eye area (UREA) and marbling (UMB). Others include feeding duration (FD), headdown time (HDT) and feeding frequency (FF). As expected, there was no difference (P=0.90) between the RFI measured in the two periods. The two periods were similar for UBF (P=0.87) and UREA (P=0.25),while DMI, ADG and UMB were greater (P<0.04) in FP2 than in FP1. The FD, HDT and FF were greater (P<0.0001) in FP1 compared with FP2. Heritability estimates were calculated in FP1 and FP2, respectively, for ADG (0.38, 0.28), DMI (0.52, 0.42), RFI (0.16, 0.27), G:F (0.18, 0.33), HDT (0.35, 0.18) and FF (0.26, 0.46). More importantly, genetic correlations between FP1 and FP2 were estimated for DMI (0.61), RFI (0.65) and G:F (0.60). The results may indicate the influence of age or feeding period or both on these traits, which may suggest the need for multi-environment genetic evaluations to identify superior animals.

Abstract. The four year "Coupling of Atmospheric Layers (CAL)" EU FP5 Research Training Network project studied unanswered questions related to transient luminous events (sprites, jets and elves) in the upper atmosphere. Consisting of ten scientific work-packages CAL also included intensive training and outreach programmes for the young scientists hired. Educational activities were based on the following elements: national PhD programmes, activities at CAL and other meetings, a dedicated summer school, and two European sprite observational campaigns. The young scientists were strongly involved in the latter and, as an example, the "EuroSprite2005" observational campaign is presented in detail. Some of the young scientists participated in the instrument set-up, others in the campaign logistics, some coordinated the observations, and others gathered the results to build a catalogue. During the four-month duration of this campaign, all of them took turns in operating the system and making their own night observations. The ongoing campaign activities were constantly advertised and communicated via an Internet blog. In summary the campaign required all the CAL young scientists to embark on experimental work, to develop their organisational skills, and to enhance their ability to communicate their activities. The campaign was a unique opportunity to train and strengthen skills that will be an asset to their future careers and, overall, was most successful.

RESUMO Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito dos anticorpos (ACs) maternos sobre resposta imune humoral induzida pela vacinação em bezerros Holandeses. Bezerros foram distribuídos aleatoriamente em quatro grupos: G1 - vacinados no D14 e D44 (n=6); G2 - vacinados no D90 e D120 (n=5); G3 - vacinados no D180 e D210 (n=8); controle: não vacinado (n=5). Utilizaram-se 5mL de vacina comercial (Cattle Master Gold FP5+L5® - Zoetis, Brasil), por via subcutânea. Foi realizada vírus neutralização (VN) no momento da vacinação, booster e 30 dias após a revacinação. Não foram observadas diferenças entre controle e G1 ou G2 para a frequência de soropositivos ou títulos de ACs contra os vírus respiratórios (P≥0,05). G3 apresentou maior produção de ACs em relação ao controle para BoHV-1 (P<0,01), BRSV (P<0,01) e BPIV-3 (P=0,02) após o booster (D240). A análise no tempo também demonstrou aumento nos títulos de ACs no G3 (P≤0,05). O perfil clínico revelou broncopneumonia apenas no grupo controle (n=4/5) entre 80-135 dias de vida. A imunidade colostral e a vacinal apresentaram perfis inversamente proporcionais, com maior produção de ACs aos seis meses de idade. Devido à precocidade da doença respiratória, estudos complementares são necessários para esclarecer o papel da resposta imune celular na vacinação diante dos ACs maternos.

Abstract:

Abstract Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is an extremely prevalent retrovirus infecting US dairy herds. Approximately 83% of US dairy herds are BLV-positive, and the within-herd infection rate is typically between 25–50%, with the prevalence increasing as the herd size increases. Historically, BLV infection has been considered benign, leading to a lack of control for its spread. However, recent research suggests that BLV infection negatively impacts the health of the host immune system. If BLV impairs host immunity, it would have a large economic impact on the dairy industry. To assess the immune competence of dairy cattle naturally infected with BLV, both BLV- and BLV+ cows were boosted on their regular schedule with BoviShield Gold FP5 L5 HB. Samples were collected over 28 days to characterize the strength of the immune response to the vaccine stimulus. BLV+ cows produced significantly lower titers of antigen-specific antibodies in comparison to healthy, BLV- cows. In vitro assays suggest that the difference in antibody titers is related to lower interferon-γ production from T cells in response to antigenic stimulation. Our results support the hypothesis that BLV+ cows have a reduced immune response to a commonly used commercial vaccine, which suggests that BLV+ cows may be less protected by vaccines and, thus, at an increased risk of developing secondary infections.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective Caesarean rates have increased rapidly for various reasons recently. One of the important reasons among these is medicolegal problems. Our aim with this study was to preoperatively predict abdominal adhesion density by combining the scar tissue morphology formed in the post-caesarean Pfannenstiel incision line and the skin color scoring of the patients. Material and methods Patients who had undergone one caesarean section previously, completed their terms (37−39 weeks) and were under 35 years old were included in the study. Skin color scoring of the patients was performed using the Fitzpatrick skin color scale. Intra-abdominal adhesion scoring of the participant patients was performed using Nair’s adhesion scoring system. Results The change in abdominal adhesion scores was evaluated based on the Fitzpatrick color scale. Adhesion scores per the Nair intra-abdominal adhesion scoring system were found to be 0.04±0.209 in the FP1 group, 0.35±0.662 in the FP2 group, 1.58±0.923 in the FP3 group, and 2.33±0.577 in the FP4 group (p<0.05). These results showed a significant increase in adhesion density with increasing skin color darkness. Based on these results, it was observed that the abdominal adhesion scores and the frequency of depressed skin scar were significantly increased with increasing Fitzpatrick scores (p<0.05). Conclusion The aim of this study was to increase the prediction rates by adding the skin color scoring to the scar tissue characteristics, which have been used in previous studies. The results of this study indicate that the combination of these two parameters may be more effective in predicting intra-abdominal adhesions. Nevertheless, there is a need for studies with a much higher number of patients and multiple parameters to be able to predict intra-abdominal adhesion density preoperatively with greater accuracy.

This study examined whether prefrontal brain region electroencephalography (EEG) can be used to detect driver's fatigue. The participants were 13 healthy university students with driving experience. They collected EEG experiments in a virtual driving environment, and divided the collected EEG data into normal state and fatigue state. Fuzzy entropy was used for feature extraction; SVM was used as a classification tool. FP1 and FP2 electrode EEG signal was selected from the subject's EEG signal as analysis object. When single electrode signal was used as feature, accuracy of FP1 was higher than FP2, and if mixing FP1 and FP2 as feature, the accuracy is the highest, the average accuracy is 0.85 by 10-fold cross-validation in Prefrontal brain region. Although the signal classification accuracy of the prefrontal brain region is not the highest, from a practical point, the EEG classification accuracy can be used to detect fatigue.

Abstract:

Vitamin A and iron deficiencies are prevalent in preschool children being a public health concern. The study aimed at developing a flour blend formulation made of sorghum, pumpkin pulp and seeds and examining its contribution to the daily nutrient requirement for iron and vitamin A among preschool children. Three flour blends were formulated using a mixture of fermented sorghum flour, pumpkin seed flour and pumpkin pulp flour with the following ratios 80:10:10 (FP1), 70:15:15 (FP2) and 60:20:20 (FP3), respectively whereas control was made of 100% fermented sorghum flour. The flour blends and the control were analyzed for moisture content, protein, crude fiber, crude fat, ash, carbohydrate, beta-carotene and iron content. Further, sensory tests were conducted using a nine-hedonic scale to evaluate consumers acceptability of porridge made of the flour samples. Microbial analysis was conducted to establish the safety of developed flours. The results show that as the proportion of pumpkin pulp and pumpkin seed flours increased the protein content, ash, vitamin A and iron content significantly (P<0.05) increased. The flour blend FP3 recorded the highest amount of protein (22.87%), vitamin A (875.00 µg RAE/100g) and iron (27.51 mg/100g). The FP2 flour blend was the most preferred with sensory score of 7.91 and had ability to meet >70% of daily protein, iron and vitamin A requirements of preschool children thus most suitable for a feeding trial. The findings of this study demonstrate that pumpkin pulp and pumpkin seed can be used to enhance the nutritive value of sorghum and as such meet the protein, iron and vitamin A requirements of preschool children aiding in the eradication of nutritional deficiencies.

Abstract:

Presents the results of a research of wood-destroying properties of the basidiomycete Fomitopsis pinicola (Sw.) P. Karst. The strains were isolated in pure culture from fruiting bodies that grew on the Abies sibirica Ledeb, Pinus sylvestris Ledeb, Pinus sibirica Du Tour and Larix sibirica Ledeb in the forests of the Krasnoyarsk Territory (56°09'–56°22' N; 92°10'–92°58' E). The cultures screened for growth parameters and the dynamics of enzymatic activity during cultivation on cellulose-containing media. The radial growth rate of Siberian strains on the agar medium and plant substrates is 1,1–3,3 mm / day; the growth coefficient is 10–42. All studied cultures synthesize extracellular cellulolytic enzymes that hydrolyze the sodium salt of carboxymethylcellulose. The enzymatic activity is in the range 0,05–0,39 U / ml with a maximum of 7–9 days. The most active strain of Fp5-15 F. pinicola used for bioconversion of coniferous plant substrates under solid-phase culture conditions. The maximum wood-destroying activity observed on pine and larch wood – the mass loss of substrates was 16 and 20%, respectively. On Pinus sylvestris sawdust, the total content of polysaccharides decreased by 1,2 times due to the fermentolysis of the hardly hydrolyzable fraction (a decrease of 1,4 times); the content of lignin substances did not change significantly.

Abstract:

Purpose: This study investigated risk factors for hyperechoic pancreas (HP) on ultrasonography (US) according to HP severity.Methods: Between December 2008 and February 2014, 1,459 subjects who underwent abdominal US as part of health examinations were retrospectively included. Two radiologists assessed and categorized the severity of HP as normal, mild, moderate, and severe. Subjects were allocated to two groups as follows: fatty pancreas 1 (FP1; mild to severe HP) and fatty pancreas 2 (FP2; moderate to severe HP). Clinico-metabolic parameters such as the body mass index and blood test profile of subjects with normoglycemia and prediabetes/diabetes were compared (normal vs. FP1; normal or mild HP vs. FP2). Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the associations between HP, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and diabetes/prediabetes with adjustment for clinico-metabolic parameters.Results: Of the 1,459 subjects, 71.2% and 40.4% showed HP and NAFLD on US, respectively. Normoglycemia and prediabetes/diabetes were present in 74.3% and 25.7% of subjects, respectively. Univariable analysis revealed that all the clinico-metabolic parameters were significantly associated with HP (all P<0.05). In the adjusted multivariable analysis, prediabetes/diabetes, NAFLD, age, and body mass index were significantly associated with HP with the FP1 and FP2 criteria. The independent factor with the strongest association with HP was NAFLD using the FP1 criterion (odds ratio [OR], 7.93; P<0.001) and prediabetes/diabetes using the FP2 criterion (OR, 6.96; P<0.001).Conclusion: NAFLD and prediabetes/diabetes were associated with US-diagnosed HP. Moderate to severe HP was a better predictor of prediabetes/diabetes, suggesting that evaluating HP severity may be useful in clinical practice.

Abstract:

Cricket is one of the most popular global sports, and cricket pads are important personal protective gear used for shock absorption and peak deceleration of the impact forces of the cricket ball for both batsmen and wicket keepers. The materials selection of the padding should be considered according to requirements. In the present study, flexible composites were manufactured using knitted unidirectional thermoplastic composite prepregs. Prepregs were fabricated using thermoplastic yarns, e.g., High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Polypropylene (PP), and Low Melting Polyester (LMPE). Para-aramid (Kevlar) and Flax yarns were used as inlay. The structures were stacked in three and five layers, and hot compression was used to convert thermoplastic yarn into matrix. A total of twelve samples were prepared, and their mechanical properties were evaluated. Tensile and flexural properties, short beam strength, and impact properties were optimized using the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) technique for order performance by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS). This approach was used to select the best material for use in cricket pads. The candidate samples were ranked using statistical techniques. The optimum sample was found to be FP5, i.e., Flax with polypropylene using five layers, which exhibited the maximum impact strength. The results showed that the mechanical properties were improved in general by increasing the number of layers. The significance and percentage contribution of each factor was obtained by ANOVA (α = 0.10) and pie chart, which showed Factors A and C (inlay yarn and number of layers) to be the main contributors. The optimal samples showed superior impact-related performance compared to a market sample cricket pad.

Abstract:

Many studies developed the machine learning method for discriminating Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and normal control based on multi-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) data, less concerned about using single channel EEG collected from forehead scalp to discriminate the MDD. The EEG dataset is collected by the Fp1 and Fp2 electrode of a 32-channel EEG system. The result demonstrates that the classification performance based on the EEG of Fp1 location exceeds the performance based on the EEG of Fp2 location, and shows that single-channel EEG analysis can provide discrimination of MDD at the level of multi-channel EEG analysis. Furthermore, a portable EEG device collecting the signal from Fp1 location is used to collect the second dataset. The Classification and Regression Tree combining genetic algorithm (GA) achieves the highest accuracy of 86.67% based on leave-one-participant-out cross validation, which shows that the single-channel EEG-based machine learning method is promising to support MDD prescreening application.

Abstract:

The increasing number of endangered snake species, isolation of small fragmented populations with associated inbreeding and mating or conception problems in captivity underscore the need to develop assisted reproductive techniques such as semen cryopreservation and artificial insemination to enhance conservation efforts. However, no efficient protocols for semen evaluation, cooling, or freezing are described in the 4 known publications on snake semen cryopreservation. In this initial study, semen was collected noninvasively from 4 live adult red diamond rattlesnakes (Crotalus ruber) by ventral massage. An aliquot of each ejaculate was diluted in Ham's F10 and evaluated for motility and speed of progression (SOP, scale of 1–5, 5 being fastest) before and after freezing. Because ejaculate volumes were very small, each one was subjected to 2 to 4 treatments only. Samples were diluted in Lake's extender with 2 or 4% dimethyl sulfoxide or Test-Yolk extender with 4%, 8%, or 10% glycerol before cooling to 4°C. Semen extended with Lake's (a common avian semen extender) was then frozen by one of two protocols (FP): FP1, pelleted in liquid nitrogen vapor; FP2, placed in cryovials in an alcohol bath for 4 h in a –80°C freezer (cooling rate of 1°C min–1). Semen extended with Test-Yolk (a widely used mammalian semen extender) was frozen by one of two protocols: FP3, placed in cryovials in a controlled-rate freezer and cooled at 1°C min–1 to –20°C, then 50°C min–1 to –80°C; FP4, placed in cryovials in a controlled-rate freezer and cooled at 1°C min–1 to –8°C, then 3°C min–1 to –16°C, then 5°C min–1 to –80°C. Interestingly, semen frozen in Lake's extender exhibited no post-thaw motility, regardless of dimethyl sulfoxide concentration or FP (Table 1). In contrast, all semen frozen in Test-Yolk exhibited motility post-thaw. Semen from male 42 frozen by FP3 with 8% glycerol resulted in the greatest post-thaw motility of all treatments for both males. However, the same treatment for male 122 was not as successful, suggesting a possible male effect on semen cryosurvival (Table 1). The single sample frozen with 4% glycerol exhibited the lowest post-thaw motility, indicating that higher concentrations of the cryoprotectant may be beneficial to snake sperm. The exciting results of this preliminary study may guide future research in the long-neglected field of snake semen cryopreservation.

Abstract:

Electroencephalogram (EEG) telah digunakan untuk klinis diagnosa epilepsi selama beberapa dekade. Jika dibandingkan dengan metode lain seperti Electrocorticogram (ECOG), EEG adalah metode yang aman untuk mendeteksi aktivitas otak. Analisis klinis atas EEG untuk pengidentifikasi kejang adalah tepat. Namun, performance EEG secara otomatis berbasis metode yang tergantung pada jenis fitur yang dianalisis dan bagaimana EEG digunakan untuk mengklasifikasikan sinyal. Sinyal yang digunakan FP1-FP2 dan F3-F7. Epilepsi merupakan salah satu penyakit neurologis yang utama. Epilepsi didefinisikan sebagai suatu sindrom yang ditandai oleh gangguan fungsi otak yang bersifat sementara dan paroksismal. Wavelet adalah alat analisis frekuensi-waktu yang efektif untuk dianalisis sinyal transien.
