Abstract The correlation between sea surface temperature (SST) and El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) persists into post-ENSO September over the South China Sea (SCS), the longest correlation in the World Ocean. Slow modulations of this correlation are analyzed by using the International Comprehensive Ocean–Atmosphere Dataset (ICOADS). ENSO’s influence on SCS SST has experienced significant interdecadal changes over the past 138 years (1870–2007), with a double-peak structure correlation after the 1960s compared to a single-peak before the 1940s. According to the ENSO correlation character, the analysis period is divided into four epochs. In epoch 3, 1960–83, the SST warming and enhanced precipitation over the southeastern tropical Indian Ocean, rather than the Indian Ocean basinwide warming, induce easterly wind anomalies and warm up the SCS in the summer following El Niño. Besides the Indian Ocean effect, during epochs 2 (1930–40) and 4 (1984–2007), the Pacific–Japan (PJ) pattern of atmospheric circulation anomalies helps sustain the SCS SST warming through summer (June–August) with easterly wind anomalies. The associated increase in shortwave radiation and decrease in upward latent heat flux cause the SCS SST warming to persist into the summer. Meanwhile, the rainfall response around the SCS to ENSO shows interdecadal variability, with stronger variability after the 1980s. The results suggest that both the remote forcing from the tropical Indian Ocean and the PJ pattern are important for the ENSO teleconnection to the SCS and its interdecadal modulations.

The use of renewable residues as a source of nutrients, associated with chemical input, can provide better efficiency, greater amount of nutrients available to the plant and reduce its application. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of different organic residues associated with chemical fertilizer (NPK) on sugarcane rooting and yield. The experiment was conducted in a Typic Quartzipsamments soil, located in Campo Grande-MS, Brazil, from October 2010 to September 2013. The plots were 4 x 5 m (20 m2), set in a randomized block design with four replicates. The treatments consisted of poultry litter (10 t ha-1), filter cake (10 t ha-1), vermicompost (10 t ha-1) and vinasse (300 m3 ha-1), all associated with basic NPK fertilizer, and control (only basic fertilization). All sources were applied in the furrows before planting, with the exception of vinasse, which was applied through fertigation. The results showed that treatment with filter cake obtained the highest amount of roots with yield gain in the 1st and 2nd harvests.

Broom snakeweed achene dispersal was monitored by placing surface-level traps outwards in the cardinal directions from 12 plants and collecting the achenes weekly or biweekly from September 1993 until seeds were no longer retained by the plants after 42 wk. About 50% of the achenes dispersed between October and December. Especially high numbers of achenes were dislodged during periods of intense winter winds and rains, with 78% of the seed placed into the east tray and 86% falling within 50 cm of the parent plant. Achene production averaged 3,928 (± 1,146) per plant in 1993 and 2,036 (± 987) per plant in 1994. Achenes collected over time directly from the inflorescence and achenes stored in nylon packets on the soil surface averaged 82% viability during fall and winter. Achene viability declined rapidly in late spring, and few remained viable before the next seed crop. Greenhouse experiments compared the influence of water application interval and water amount on broom snakeweed germination and seedling survival. Treatments consisted of 4 water intervals: daily, 5-d, 10-d, and 15-d intervals; and 4 water amounts: field capacity (1/1 fc), 3/4 fc, 1/2 fc, and 1/4 fc. Germination was 52% at daily 1/1 fc, and no seed germinated at daily 1/4 fc. Data suggest that optimum germination occurs when soils are maintained at a minimum soil matric potential (Ψm) > −180 kPa for at least 4 d. Optimum Ψm for seedling survival appears to range between −300 and −900 kPa, while seedling mortality would generally be expected with a Ψm of > −1800 kPa.

Abstract Introduction Four cycles of bortezomib/thalidomide/dexamethasone (VTD) induction therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is one of the standard therapy for patients aged less than 65 years with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). Complete remission (CR) status before ASCT is an important prognostic factor for progression-free survival (PFS). We analyzed whether two additional cycles of VTD improved the pre- and post-transplant responses as well as PFS compared to the four cycles of VTD induction therapy. Methods A total of 222 patients with NDMM between September 2014 and August 2016 from eleven hospitals in South Korea were included in the current study. The patients received at least four or more cycles of VTD induction therapy before administration of high-dose therapy (HDT, melphalan 200mg/m2) followed by ASCT. VTD regimen was consisted of bortezomib subcutaneous infusion (1.3 mg/m2 on days 1, 4, 8, and 11), thalidomide (100 mg daily), and dexamethasone (40 mg on days 1-4, 8-11), which was administered every 4 weeks. Results The median age was 57 years (range 30−64 years), and 120 patients (61.9%) were male. Revised international scoring system (R-ISS) classified 59 (30.4%), 86 (44.3%), and 49 patients (25.3%) as stage I, II, and III, respectively. VTD induction was administered 4 cycles in 194 patients (VTD4, 67.5%) and more than 4 cycles in 63 (VTD6, 32.5%) before HDT. Patient characteristics at diagnosis did not differ between VTD4 and VTD6. CR rate before HDT was significantly higher in VTD6 than VTD4 (31.7% vs 13.0%, P = 0.003). However, CR rate after HDT/ASCT was similar between VTD4 and VTD6 (69.0% vs 65.5%, P = 0.726). There was no difference in the incidence of peripheral neuropathy (PN) (≥ grade 2 or that required dose reduction) between two groups. The median follow-up duration was 18.0 months (range 7.0-43.8 months). The 2-year PFS did not differ between the two groups (51.7 ±5.7% in VTD4 and 62.1±8.6% in VTD6, P = 0.240). Multivariate analysis revealed that the achievement of CR was a favorable prognostic factor for PFS (HR 0.27 [0.08−0.90], P = 0.034). Deletion 17p (HR 2.87 [1.01−7.92], P = 0.048) and t(4;14) (HR 3.38 [1.76−6.48], P < 0.001) in FISH were adverse prognostic factors for PFS. Patients with stage I/II by R-ISS receiving additional two cycles of VTD showed prolonged PFS (median PFS not reached vs. 27.6 months, P = 0.034). In the multivariate analysis, VTD6 was a favorable prognostic factor for PFS for patients with stage I/II by R-ISS, (HR 0.11 [0.02−0.52], P = 0.005). Conclusion CR rates increased with additional cycles of VTD induction therapy for NDMM. However, the PFS benefit was observed only in patients with R-ISS stage I/II. For patients with high-risk MM, intensive induction therapy that overcome poor prognostic factors should be administered to improve long-term outcomes. Figure. Figure.

Abstract Abstract 1807 Poster Board I-833 In the study, we sought to determine the role of serial monitoring of immunoglobulin heavy chain monoclonality by IGH-GR tests in symptomatic MM patients who have been uniformly treated with induction chemotherapy, autotransplant following high-dose melphalan-based ablative therapy and post-transplant maintenance. Between September 2006 and April 2009, 51 patients (median age 60, range 37 – 77 years) were evaluated for conventional cytogenetics, myeloma FISH panel and IGH-GR on bone marrow samples prospectively every 3 months (mo) starting before initiation of therapy. The myeloma FISH panel included probes for chromosomes 1, 4, 11, 13, 14, and 17. IGH-GR test was performed by the InVivoScribe Technologies IGH Gene Rearrangement Assay using PCR primers targeting the conserved framework within the V-J region and J regions. A segment of the HLA-DQA1 gene was amplified as a control for patient DNA quality. 22 patients had IgG, 12 IgA, 13 light chain only and 4 nonsecretory MM. 30 patients (59%) were previously treated before and 16 (31%) had prior relapse. 23 patients (45%) received a tandem transplant and all patients received a maintenance regimen that included bortezomib and lenalidomide. Of the 51 patients, 11 (22%) had pre-therapy cytogenetic abnormalities (CA), 22 (43%) FISH abnormalities (FA) and 22 (43%) positive IGH-GR for monoclonality. Detection of positive IGH-GR was not associated with either CA (Fisher's exact test, p = 0.32) or FA (p = 0.14). The 3-year overall survival was 92% with 4 deaths. Relapse occurred in 10 with a 3-year cumulative index (CI) of 20%. In 3 to 12 mo following the first transplant, CA were seen in 7 (14% - 3 mo), 4 (8% - 6 mo) and 3 patients (6% - 12 mo); for FA, 9 (18%), 5 (10%) and 4 (8%); for IGH-GR, 10 (20%), 6 (12%) and 8 (17%). Findings before therapy were prognostic in survival and disease control. The 3-yr Kaplan-Meier survival was 80% for 11 patients (22%) with pre-therapy CA compared to 96% for those (n = 40) without CA (Logrank p = 0.02), 83% for 22 patients with FA (43%) compared to 100% for those (n = 29) without FA (p = 0.03), and 87% for 22 positive for IGH-GR (43%) versus 96% for those (n = 29) negative for IGH-GR (p = 0.03). Pre-therapy CA but not FA nor IGH-GR was significant for the CI of relapse: 33% vs. 15%, p = 0.06. Of the post-transplant follow-up on the CI of relapse, only the 3-mo evaluation was prognostically significant (Table). Although the current findings require further study for confirmation, the data suggests a potential role of IGH-GR tests in monitoring treatment responses in patients with MM. Additional primers such as the ones used in the BIOMED-2 may increase the sensitivity of test.

Abstract Background Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) exists in two forms: a genetic form transmitted by autosomal dominant inheritance (ATTRv) and a wild type form (ATTRwt). Clinically, the hereditary form tends to have an early onset in adulthood and it is characterized by a particular tropism for nervous as well as cardiac tissue. In contrast, the "wild type" form has a later onset with major cardiac involvement and neurological manifestations usually limited to carpal tunnel syndrome. Methods and Results In our centre, from September 2021 to June 2023, 52 patients older than 70 years received a diagnosis of cardiac ATTR (87% male, 13% female, mean age 81±5y). In all patients, blood tests showed a significant and stable increase in the values of troponin Ths (0.079 microg/L±0.074) and NT–proBNP (2000±1800 pg/ml), with the absence of a monoclonal component in the blood and urine, and miocardial bisphosphonate scintigraphy positive grade 2/3. All patients underwent genetic testing by amplification of exons 2,3 and 4 of the TTR gene with subsequent sequencing. Unexpectedly, in 10 elderly (70%male, 30% female, mean age 77±4 y) patients (19%) the genetic test resulted positive with 4 different mutations of pathogenetic significance (Val30Met; Ile68Leu; Val142Ile;, Phe84Leu). Three patients showed peripheral neuropathy with the presence of carpal tunnel syndrome, while isolated carpal tunnel syndrome was present in the remaining 7 cases. The three patients with neurologic involvement started Patisiran therapy, and 7 patients were treated with Tafamidis. First–degree relatives (16 consanguineous, average age 49±12 years) agreed to be subjected to genetic screening; of these 9 (3 male and 6 females, age 47±8 years) were positive for the corresponding mutation and underwent echocardiogram, MRI and myocardial scintigraphy. These tests were normal in 8 probands, included in an annual follow–up protocol to identify an early manifestation of the disease, and was diagnostic for amyloidosis in 1 patient who started specific therapy. Conclusions Our experience shows that 19% of patients older than 70 years with a diagnosis of cardiac ATTR may be affected by a genetic form. Making genetic diagnosis in this context is particularly important for screening family members: current therapies are in fact much more effective if started early before organ damage occurs.

The article reveals the feasibility of organizing and conducting the selection of cows and heifers by sexual activity for artificial insemination day and night. Revealed for three months in females (n=717): in 600 signs of sexual activity in 0,70 %, 700-19,94 %; 800- 19,25 %; 900 – 9,21 %; from 1000-1200-14.78 %; from 1300-1400- 4.32 %; from 1500-1600-15.2 %; from 1700-1900 – 9,76 %; 2000-6,83 %. It was revealed that most animals had sexual activity in the morning (49.10 %). In August, 213 heads were studied, of which the signs of sexual activity in 600 had 2.35 %; in 700-14.08 %; in 800 - 11.74 %; in 900 - 8.45; in 1000 decreased to 3.29 %, in 1400 - an increase to 11.74 %; in 1600 - 12.68 %; in 1800 - 13.15% and 2000 - 22.54 %. Round-the-clock monitoring revealed a state of libido, for a period of 0000-400 hours morning 25,00 %, 400-800 – 18,27 %, 800-1200 – 17,34 %, 1200-1600 – 20,19 %, 1600-2000 – 4,81 %, 2000-2400 - 14,42 %. Of the 104 cows identified in the hunt, 62.5 % showed sexual activity in the period from 2000 to 800, and only 37.5 % of cows in the hunt were detected during the working hours of the artificial insemination operator. Also, from 22 heifers, 40.9 % showed signs of sexual activity in the period from 2000 to 800, and 59.09 % showed signs of sexual activity during working hours. Therefore, given the acceleration of physiological processes in the warm season, there are prerequisites for reducing the efficiency of the operator. In September (an hour later), it was revealed in females (n=270): in 700 - 18.89 %, in 800 - 21.85 %; before 900 there was a decrease to 1000 %; and by 1000 hours - a rapid increase to 27.04 %; by 1400, a decrease to 1.85 %; from 1600 to 2000 - 12.96, 7.04 and 0.37 %, respectively. In October, out of 234 animals in 700, 26.50 % of females showed signs of sexual activity, which is 7.60 more than in September and 12.42 % more than in August; in 800 - 23.08 %; in 900-8.97 %; in 1000, a slight increase to 11.11 % was observed, by 1400 - a decrease to 0.43 % (similar to the previous month); in 1600, 20.09 % were detected, in 1800 - 9.83 %. So, during the daylight hours, cows and heifers show signs of sexual activity not evenly: the first wave of excitement begins with a sunrise and lasts 4-6 hours, the second begins at 1400-1600 and continues until sunset. The data obtained indicate that it is advisable to identify cow’s sexual activity both during the day and at night. Such studies should be carried out depending on the time of year: the length of daylight and the temperature of the environment. The conducted research can serve as a basis for compiling the multiplicity of detection of cow’s sexual activity during the day and the mode of their detection libido during working shifts by artificial insemination operators, their assistants and other workers.

Abstract Introduction: Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a serious complication among patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy (MC). Clinical trials have shown efficacy of primary prophylaxis with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PP-GCSF) in reducing FN risk, but few population-based studies have examined trends in PP-GCSF use and FN incidence in older patients over the past 20 years. We describe trends in MC regimens by FN risk category, PP-GCSF use, and risk of neutropenia (NP)-related hospitalization focusing on older NHL patients initiating MC. Methods: We identified patients (age ≥ 66 years) diagnosed with NHL and initiating MC each year 1995-2015 using Medicare 5% (1994-2007) and 20% (2007-2015) sample data. We required patients to be continuously enrolled in Medicare Part A and B for 12 months before MC initiation (first MC treatment in the year with no claims for MC agents in the preceding 12 months) and to survive ≥ 6 days after initiation. The first MC cycle started on the MC initiation date (day 1) and ended at the next administration at least 6 days, but no more than 35 days, after initiation. If no second cycle started before day 35, the first cycle was considered completed at the earliest of day 35 after initiation, the day before regimen change, death, disenrollment from Part A or B, or September 30, 2015. Chemotherapy regimen was defined based on MC agents on Part A outpatient (OP) or Part B (PB) claims from day 1-day 6 of the first cycle and, on the same claims, an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for NHL. Based on the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines, regimens with FN risk >20% and 10%-20% were classified as high and intermediate FN risk categories, respectively. Patients receiving MC agents but not high or intermediate FN risk regimens were classified as "Other" FN risk category. PP-GCSF use was defined as an administration of pegfilgrastim or any short-acting CSF (filgrastim, tbo-filgrastim, filgrastim-sndz, or sargramostim) in OP/PB claims up to 5 days after first cycle chemotherapy completion. NP-related hospitalization was identified from Part A inpatient claims with ICD-9-CM diagnosis code 288.0X in the first five positions between day 7 and the last day of the cycle. We describe trends in proportions of patients receiving MC regimens by FN risk category, with PP-GCSF use, and with NP-related hospitalization in the first cycle. Trends in NP-related hospitalization rates were further evaluated using a logistic regression model with calendar year treated as a continuous variable and functional form estimated by a penalized spline after adjusting for age, race, baseline hospital length of stay, baseline NP-related hospitalization, number of comorbid conditions, and MC FN risk category. Results: Yearly cohorts included 538-717 eligible patients, 1995-2007, and 1877-2640, 2008-2015. Proportions of patients aged ≥80 years increased from 39% in 1995 to 44% in 2015. Proportions receiving high/intermediate FN risk regimens were <20% before 1997, 36% in 1997, and 40%-46% 1998-2015 (Figure 1). Most patients receiving high/intermediate risk regimens (88%-96%) received CHOP-21 (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and vincristine every 21 days with or without rituximab). Overall, PP-GCSF use increased from 8% in 1995 to 60% in 2015, mainly due to introduction of pegfilgrastim in 2002 (Figure 2). PP-GCSF use was more common in patients receiving high/intermediate FN risk regimens than in patients receiving other regimens (Figure 3). Overall, unadjusted incidence of NP-related hospitalization decreased from 7% in 1995 to 4% in 2015 (Figure 4). Change point in trend was detected at 2010; incidence of NP-related hospitalization decreased, on average, 6% each year before 2010 (p<0.0001) and was flat from 2010 (p=0.6) after adjustment for changed patient characteristics. Conclusions: Among older patients diagnosed with NHL receiving MC, 1995-2015, PP-GCSF use increased substantially after 2002. Over the same 20-year period, incidence of NP-related hospitalization in the first cycle decreased, on average, 6% each year before 2010 and was flat from 2010. Further studies are needed to understand overall decreasing trends in NP-related hospitalization and effects of changes in chemotherapy and FN management. Disclosures Liu: FibroGen Inc.: Consultancy.

"Between the cultural and religious event dedicated to the Moldavian ruler Stephen the Great, organized by the Romanian students from Vienna, Paris, Liege, Iasi, Berlin, Bucharest and Blaj, which was to take place on Saturday, August 15/27, 1870, at the Putna Monastery (in Bukovina, in the Austro-Hungarian Empire), and the armed confrontation between France and Prussia (which started on Tuesday, July 7/19, 1870 and ended on September 2, 1870, with the surrender of the French army, the deposition and the exile of Napoleon III on Sunday, September 4, 1870) there is no cause-purpose-effect connection, all the more so as the two events happened dispersed in time and space (Berlin, Paris, Vienna, Bucharest, Putna). And yet regarding the two historical facts, one Romanian and the other European, there was a factor of concern because in order to fill the vacant throne of the Kingdom of Spain, the Chancellor of Prussia chose Prince Leopold of Sigmaringen-Hohenzollern, whose brother Charles occupied in Bucharest the throne of the Romanian Principalities. However, the Bucharest-Berlin-Madrid triangle offered Europe a Hohenzollernian political perspective that could not be accepted by the hegemon pretender from Paris. The celebration at the tomb of Stephen the Great was firstly suggested by Iraclie Porumbescu, a parish priest in Putna village (Iasi, 1857). It was later presented by the Romanian student Constantin Aronovici in his dissertation „About the Genius of Stephen the Great” (Vienna, Saturday, December 4, 1869), conceived by Emanuil Logothetti (Saturday, December 25, 1869) and partially organized by Gabriel Băleanu inside the Putna Monastery on Saturday, August 15/27, 1870). The celebration took place in the tradition of the Assumption, with guests from Bukovinian villages and many others who came from Moldova, without causing impediments or suspicions in the context of the events in Europe. The central committee of the Romanian students in Vienna postponed the celebration for 1871, for a reason which is understandable in the “mioritic space”: the disappearance of the insurance policy of the money deposited at a Viennese bank, recklessly entrusted to the Romanians “Pêrlea & Murăşanu”. The invocation of the Franco-Prussian war (July 19, 1870 – May 10, 1871) was an excellent gimmick for credible publicity in the “Wallachian void”. "

St. Petersburg was well aware of the development of the situation in France, which led to the fall of the Second Empire and the proclamation of the Third Republic on 4 September 1870. The main source of such information for Emperor Alexander II and Chancellor Gorchakov was Grigory Nikolaevich Okunev, Russia's chargé d'affaires in France. His extensive correspondence from Paris and then from Bordeaux, Tours and Versailles, whither the republican government was forced to move, formed the basis for this study. To date, this valuable source has not attracted the much-deserved attention of scholars of French history and Franco-Russian relations. Meanwhile, Okunev's dispatches and telegrams preserved in the Archive of Foreign Policy of the Russian Empire (Moscow) are of considerable interest. He was an immediate eyewitness who tried to comprehend the process of formation of the Third Republic. Okunev's information to a certain extent influenced the formulation of the Russian Empire's approach to the young French Republic. The chronological framework of the article covers the period from the revolution of 4 September 1870 to the elections to the National Assembly, the formation of the government of Adolphe Thiers (February 1871) and the subsequent conclusion of the Treaty of Frankfurt (10 May 1871), which ended the Franco-Prussian War. The author analyses the Russian diplomacy's view of the revolution of 4 September 1871 and the birth of the Third Republic in France. He explains the reasons behind St. Petersburg's recognition of the French Republic, even though it was not sure of its stability.

1. Gabčíkovo-Nagymaros Project (Hungary/Slovakia)On 2 July 1993, in pursuance of a Special Agreement of 7 April 1993, Hungary and Slovakia requested the Court to determine certain issues arising out of the implementation and termination of a 1977 Agreement on the construction and operation of the Gabčíkovo-Nagymaros barrage system. In its judgment of 25 September 199790 the Court found both States to be in breach of their obligations and called on them to negotiate a settlement in good faith.91 On 3 September 1998 Slovakia filed a request for an additional judgment, arguing that Hungary was unwilling to implement the judgment92 and it was subsequently agreed that Hungary would file a written statement of its position regarding this request by 7 December 1998.932. Ahmadou Sadio Diallo (Republic of Guinea v Democratic Republic of the Congo) Guinea instituted proceedings against the Democratic Republic of Congo on 28 December 1998 alleging grave breaches of international law perpetrated upon a national of Guinea. By an order of 25 November 199994 the following time limits were set for the submission of written pleadings: Republic of Guinea, memorial, 11 September 2000; Democratic Republic of the Congo, counter-memorial, 11 September 2001. By an order of 8 September 200095 these were extended to: Republic of Guinea, memorial, 23 March 2001; Democratic Republic of the Congo, counter-memorial, 4 October 2002. On 3 October 2002 the Democratic Republic of the Congo filed preliminary objections to the admissibility of the Application and in an order of 7 November 200296 the Court fixed 7 July 2003 as the time limit for submission of written observations by the Republic of Guinea.

Two of the most important and still unresolved issues in the history of the Bulgarian committee movement in the late 60s and early 70s of the XIX century are when the CBRC in Bulgaria (the Lovech`s Central Committee), was established and what`s happened to the private revolutionary committee in Lovech after the establishment of the Central Committee in the same town. The most common opinions are that the CBRC in Bulgaria was established in the second half of 1870, in the spring or the autumn of 1871. According to me, CBRC in Bulgaria was most likely established at the end of September 1871. As for the second question, many historians think that Lovech`s private revolutionary committee has been transformed into a Central committee of the revolutionary organization in Bulgaria. However, some historical sources allow us to think that in the period from the end of September 1871 to the so-called General Assembly of BRCC (April 29 – May 4, 1872) in Lovech there was both a Central and a private revolutionary committee.

Background Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is characterized by an increased rate of thrombosis, whose predictors are not completely clarified, although an association with active hemolysis (i.e., LDH >1.5 x ULN), anemia severity and previous splenectomy has been reported. Moreover, antithrombotic prophylaxis and its duration are not standardized in this patient-population. The value of thrombophilia screening, including congenital and acquired abnormalities, has not been established yet. Aim To investigate the prevalence of inherited and acquired thrombophilia abnormalities in a cohort of AIHA patients with or without thrombosis. Methods AIHA patients followed from January 2019 until September 2022 at a tertiary hematologic center in Milan, have been systematically tested for Factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin (FII) G20210A mutation, protein C (PC), protein S (PS), antithrombin (AT) levels, and the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (APLA, i.e., lupus anticoagulant, LAC, anti-cardiolipin and anti-b2-glycoprotein-1). Patients' hematological characteristics, additional thrombotic risk factors, history of venous/arterial thrombosis before and after AIHA diagnosis, and anticoagulant and/or antiplatelet therapies were retrospectively recorded. Results As shown in table 1, 59% of 92 enrolled patients were female with a median age at diagnosis of 70.5 years (range 24-89), and were classified as warm AIHA (50%), cold agglutinin disease (31.5%), mixed/atypical AIHA (9.8%), and Evans syndrome (association of AIHA and other immune cytopenia, 8.7%). Thrombophilia screening resulted positive in 19 patients (20.7%) including FVL (1.1%), F II (1.1%), APLA (10.8%), PC deficiency (1.1%), PS deficiency (2.2%), AT deficiency (2.2%), and more than one abnormality (2.2%). Additional risk factors considered were thrombosis prior to AIHA diagnosis, reported in 6 patients (7%, 3 venous and 3 arterial), and associated conditions (29%), including autoimmune disease (N=17), lymphoproliferative disease (N=7), myeloproliferative neoplasm (N=1), and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (N=1). Furthermore, 97% of subjects presented at least one risk factor (i.e., diabetes, obesity, bed rest, etc.) in addition to AIHA. Twenty-seven patients (28%) received anticoagulant prophylaxis after AIHA diagnosis, mainly short-term for hemolysis (42%) or surgery of lower limb fractures (37%), and long-term for atrial fibrillation in 24%; 22% of patients were on antiplatelet prophylaxis, and 4 patients had been splenectomized. Since AIHA diagnosis, 26 patients (28%) experienced thrombosis (77% venous, 23% arterial), with 33 total events (3 patients had > 1 event). Median hemoglobin and LDH at thrombosis were 8.6 g/dL (2-11.7), and 374 U/L (129-1873) respectively, indicating active hemolysis. No relationship was found with inherited thrombophilia abnormalities (3 patients, 8% experienced thrombosis vs 7, 10.5% who did not), whilst a significant association was noted with APLA positivity (p<0.05). Two patients with APLA experienced more than 1 event, one had 1 venous and 1 arterial event. Conclusions Along with disease activity and Evans syndrome, positivity for APLA appears the main predictor of thrombosis in AIHA and is therefore worth of testing, whilst extensive thrombophilia screening encompassing inherited abnormalities appears less useful.

Background: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic drastically changed daily life activities and medical practice, leading to a reorganization of healthcare activities. People spent two months in home-isolation, changing their daily habits and undertaking a more sedentary lifestyle. Change in lifestyle is related to important consequences in knee pathologies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outpatient activity for knee pathologies before and after lockdown in terms of incidence, severity, diagnosis, and treatment. Methods: Medical records of patients with knee pathology in outpatient follow-up at IRCCS Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi in Milan (Italy) were analyzed in the time frame 4 May–4 September 2020 and compared with patients examined between 4 May and 4 September 2019. Results: A significant increase of knee diagnoses associated to patellofemoral disorders in 2020 was found (p = 0.004). In addition, physiotherapy was significantly more prescribed in 2020 than in 2019 (p = 0.012). Conclusions: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic lockdown did not drastically change knee pathology, but it may have had an impact on it, highlighting a summary worsening of patellofemoral disorders associated with other knee diagnoses. Further studies are required to validate this result.

Texto completoResumen
The viability of pine seed from cones cached by red squirrels was compared with the viability of seed collected weekly during August and September. Scots pine seed collected during the last three weeks of August exhibited poor but increasing germinability (24.3% – 77.0%), but seed collected in September showed high germinability (95.0% – 99.5%). The strategy of collecting cones before intensive harvesting by squirrels is therefore of limited utility. Scots, red, and jack pine cones recovered from squirrel caches yielded seed of acceptable quality (greater than 80% germinability in 9 of 10 collections). Recovering cones from squirrel caches is a practical and viable strategy in seed orchards and natural forests. We recommend that collections be made within one month of harvesting by the squirrels. Key words: pine seed, seed viability, seed maturity, seed orchard red squirrel management.

Abstract Background. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the 2nd leading cause of cancer death in Guam, a U.S. unincorporated territory where CHamoru (Chamorro) and Filipinos comprise over 60% of the population. CHamoru have higher age-adjusted mortality rates (23.2) than the U.S. (14.2) and the overall population in Guam (17.3). Only 53.9% of persons aged 50 and above have met USPSTF screening standards compared to 74.3% in the U.S. In addition, CRC diagnoses occur in the late stages; 75.0% at Stage 3, while 18.0% occur at Stage 1. Research on early CRC onset among Pacific Island peoples are limited; data from the Guam Tumor Registry indicates 10% of colorectal cancer cases from 2013 – 2017 were diagnosed before age 50. Specific aims of this pre-pilot study are to examine cognitive and cultural beliefs associated with CRC and screening, recommendations for culturally relevant prevention, and age-specific education interventions. Methods: Qualitative methods were employed via focus groups (FG) and in-depth key informant interviews (KII) to allow for participant perspectives and facilitate storytelling, a practice in the Pacific that creates a familiar and safe space for expression. A 3-member community council comprised of a CRC surgeon, community-based organization representative, and CRC survivor advised on recruitment, data analysis, and reporting. Purposive and snowball sampling was utilized due to stigma/sensitivity related to screening. Focus groups were age and gender specific, e.g., men in their 40s, women aged 50+, etc. KII were conducted with cultural experts and cancer survivors. Data on knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs and screening education recommendations was collected. Three levels of qualitative coding for thematic codes were performed and included input from community council and KIs. Translations from CHamoru to English were applied as necessary. Results: Five FGs and four KIIs (N=29) were conducted with persons aged 40 and above. Focus group participants were CHamoru (60%), Filipino (32%), mixed ethnicity (8%), female (56%), male (44%), and had a primary care provider (84%). Mean age was 55.0. Overall, 24.0% reported ever having had a FIT/FOBT test and 56.0% ever having had a colonoscopy. Data analysis for FGs and KIIs will be finalized in September. Initial reviews indicate mixed methods of delivery for community health educator interventions, e.g., use of a culturally relevant video, storytelling from CRC survivors, and efforts to educate families as a whole, as opposed to limiting education to screening-age adults. Conclusion: This study explores culturally relevant components of an education intervention providing a pre-emptive look at screening education for persons aged 40 and above. Findings may give insight toward age-specific and culturally-tailored CRC screening education with use of community health educators as a novel intervention for CHamoru and Filipino families and to create a pilot education intervention to improve CRC screening participation in these underserved minority populations.

Abstract Herbaceous weed control influenced the growth of planted loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) over a 10-yr-period. Five treatments were examined: (1) Untreated control: seedlings were planted in the established herbaceous vegetation; (2) Glyphosate: glyphosate was broadcast in September 1981 before planting; (3) Disked: plots were cross-disked in September 1981 before planting; (4) Glyphosate-PPWC: glyphosate was broadcast before planting as in Treatment 2, and postplant weed control (PPWC) herbicides were broadcast yearly for 4 yr (1982, atrazine plus simazine ; 1983, atrazine plus oxyfluorfen; 1984 and 1985, hexazinone ); and (5) Disked-PPWC: plots were disked before planting as in Treatment 3, and the PPWC herbicides were broadcast as in Treatment 4. Four years of PPWC did not affect survival and resulted in greater height, dbh, and volume per loblolly pine through 10 growing seasons. The disked-PPWC plots were the most productive through 8 growing seasons, but higher than average mortality after 8 yr on the disked-PPWC treatment resulted in the glyphosate-PPWC plots producing more volume per acre after 10 growing seasons. Total volume production was 253 inside bark ft³/ac greater on the two PPWC treatments than on the untreated controls. South. J. Appl. For. 18(3): 105-109.

We report the Erode Ground Gecko Cyrtodactylus speciosus (Beddome, 1870), a rare, hill forest-dwelling species, from two sites in the northern periphery of Coimbatore city. These two sites, viz., Nallusamy checkdam (Site–1) and Sarkar Sama Kulam (Site–2) are lakes with remnant vegetation belts, surrounded by pastures, farmlands, and villages. From 100 hours of observations during a six-month period (April–September 2023) in these two sites, we report 14 sightings of C. speciosus including gravid females, juveniles, and subadults indicating a persistent breeding population. The encounter rate estimates ranged from 5 h (in Nallusamy checkdam; n = 10/50 h) to 12½ h (in Sarkar Sama Kulam; n = 4/50 h), averaging at about 7 h (pooled; n = 14/100 h) to get one sighting of C. speciosus. Our sightings of C. speciosus in peri-urban common lands abutting a city, calls for intensified biodiversity surveys and enhanced protections of such remnant vegetation belts, often presumed to have low or marginalised conservation values.

Abstract Introduction Measurement of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1C) is used for the diagnosis and management of patients with diabetes. Methods for measuring HbA1C are classified on the basis of charge differences (cation exchange chromatography) or structural differences (boronate affinity chromatography). Some cation exchange high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analyzers may be prone to interferences from hemoglobin variants. Historically, our lab used two methods to report HbA1C results: cation exchange HPLC (VariantII) with reflex to boronate affinity HPLC (Ultra2) methods. A new analyzer (BioRad D-100) with improved interference detection and thresholds for interference was evaluated. The objectives of this study were (1) assess the comparability of HbA1c results between D-100, VariantII, and Ultra2; (2) evaluate the need for maintaining a reflex method; and (3) calculate cancellation rates before and after implementing D-100. Methods HbA1c was measured by cation exchange methods using VariantII Turbolink, D-100 (BioRad), and boronate affinity using Ultra2Affinity (Trinity Biotech) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations with the following analytical measuring ranges (AMRs), 4.0% to 17.6%, 4.0% to 18.0%, and 4.0% to 17.6%, respectively. D-100 was compared to VariantII (n = 26) and Ultra2 (n = 31) using residual patient samples from provider-ordered HbA1c having no chromatography flags and with the following chromatography flags on VariantII (n = 113): variant window (n = 41), HbA1c <4.0% (n = 24), HbA1a + HbA1b >5% (n = 19), HbF >5% (n = 9), P3 >10% (n = 6), HbA1c >17.6% (n = 4), unknown peak (n = 3), labile 5% to 15% (n = 3), labile >15% (n = 3), and HbS >60% (n = 1). The cancelation rates were calculated at baseline (January 1-31, 2018) and postimplementation of D-100 (September 20, 2018, to January 22, 2019). Results HbA1c results from D-100 were within ±0.3 or 5% with the following frequencies: Ultra2 in 96.2% (25/26) with VariantII in 96.8% (30/31) using samples with no chromatography flags. A total of 113 samples with abnormal VariantII flags were tested using D-100 with 82% (n = 92) not exceeding interference limits for result reporting. These D-100 results were within ±0.3 or 5% of Ultra2 results with the following frequencies: 38.5% (10/26) of samples below (n = 23) or above (n = 3) the AMR, 85.3% (29/34) of results with Hb variant flags, 68.0% (17/25) with unknown/minor peaks, and 71.4% (5/7) with HbF <15%. The clinical concordance was also assessed according to the following decision limits: normal <5.6%, prediabetic = 5.7% to 6.4%, and diabetic >6.5%. Results were concordant in 88% with variant peaks (12/13 w/HbA1c <5.6%, 8/11 w/HbA1c = 5.7%-6.4%, 10/10 w/HbA1c >6.5%), 84% with minor peaks (5/6 w/HbA1c <5.6%, 0/2 w/HbA1c = 5.7%-6.4%, 16/17 w/HbA1c >6.5%), and 86% with HbF (3/3 w/HbA1c <5.6%, 2/3 w/HbA1c = 5.7%-6.4%, 1/1 w/HbA1c >6.5%). Results above/below AMR had 100% concordance (>16.0% or <4.4%). The frequency of VariantII rule violation was 2.1% in January 2018, with 53 of 117 having results confirmed as <4.0% or >16.0% by Ultra2, 2 of 117 reported by Ultra2, and 62 being cancelled due to HbF >15% (n = 23) or variant Hb >60% (n = 39). The frequency of rule violation using only D-100 since implementation was 2.2%. Conclusion Implementation of D-100 has removed the need for boronate affinity reflex testing and maintained similar cancellation rates.

Исследован корпус хантыйской лексики с переносными значениями, зафиксированной в статусе слов-вкраплений в русских письменных источниках 1870–1930 гг. Цели анализа: 1. Выявить способы номинации и семантические особенности указанной лексики. 2. Добавить новую информацию к этимологическому словарю хантыйского языка В. Штейница. 3. Показать причины возникновения лексико-семантических вариантов лексем и специфику передачи хантыйских слов в русских текстах. Методами исследования выступили общенаучные (анализ, синтез, сравнение) и частные лингвистические методы: описательный, этимологический, сопоставительный, метод реконструкции и статистической обработки материала. Переносные значения слов показаны в контекстах из источников, даны этимологии лексем по словарю В. Штейница, буквальный перевод. В результате исследования в статье приведены лексемы и их графические варианты по хронологии в рамках отдельных групп с учетом способа номинации: типы метафорического переноса 1) по форме (6 единиц), 2) по цвету (2), 3) по расположению в пространстве (3), 4) по функции (2); примеры метонимического переноса (4) и синекдохи (1). Указана многокомпонентная лексика, называющая животных и включающая в буквальном значении слова «мужчина» (2), «женщина» (4), «зверь» (4). Перечислены новые лексемы, дополняющие диалектные данные этимологического словаря хантыйского языка В. Штейница с учетом разных говоров, соседних или отдаленных друг от друга диалектов. Отмечены 4 сложных слова, не зафиксированные в указанном словаре. В статье проанализированы причины возникновения вариативности на лексико-семантическом уровне, отраженной в источниках: 1) в сравнении с фиксациями в словаре В. Штейница некоторые лексемы имеют новый компонент и вследствие этого семантический оттенок сложного слова (3 единицы); 2) полисемия в хантыйском языке в лексемах с компонентом ЮХ «дерево», при которой одно из значений на основе метонимии — «приспособление из дерева» (4). Исследование отражает специфику передачи в русских письменных текстах переносных значений словвкраплений в дописьменный период хантыйского языка, а также особенности осознания и отражения авторами внутренней формы сложных лексем при переводе: обобщение литературным словом, сокращение одного из компонентов при сохранении переносного смысла слова, буквальный перевод, описание предметов при переводе или без него. Статья вводит в научный оборот новый материал и может быть интересна для лингвистов, этнографов, историков, археологов. The study examines Khanty lexemes with figurative meanings recorded as borrowings in Russian written sources from 1870 through 1930. Analysis objectives: 1) Establish nomination methods and semantic characteristics of recorded lexemes; 2) Add new content to the etymological dictionary by W. Steinitz; 3) Show reasons for lexemes’ emerging lexico-semantic variations and specifics of how Khanty words get recorded in Russian texts. The study’s methodology incorporates general scientific (analysis, synthesis, comparison) and specific linguistic methods: descriptive, etymological, comparative, as well reconstructive and statistical processing of materials. Figurative meanings of words are presented in the source context, accompanied by their etymologies from the Steinitz dictionary, as well as literal translations. The study lists lexemes and their graphical variants chronologically, in groups based on the nomination approach: metaphoric transference according to 1) form (6 units); 2) color (2); 3) spatial orientation (3); 4) function (2); examples of metonymic transference (4) and synecdoche (1). Included multicomponent lexemes are used for naming animals and including the words “man” (2), “woman” (4), and “beast” (4). The study lists new lexemes, which complement the dialect data of the Steinitz dictionary taking into account various geographic variants and dialects. They include 4 compound words not recorded in the above dictionary. The study analyzes the causes of emerging lexico-semantic variability as presented in the examined materials: 1) compared to those recorded in the Steinitz dictionary, some lexemes show new components and therefore semantic facets of a compound word (3 units); 2) polysemy of the Khanty language in lexemes with component ЮХ “tree” includes cases with one of the metonymy-based meanings being “a wooden utensil” (4). The study points out specific ways, in which Russian written texts recorded figurative meanings of borrowings from the Khanty language before it became a written language. The study shows cognitive and linguistic processing, on the part of creators of examined sources, of the inner form of complex lexemes when translating them: using a more general literary term; shortening one of the word components while preserving its figurative meaning; literal translation; describing an object (in combination with translation or without it). The article introduces new material to the scientific domain and could be of interest for linguists, ethnographers, historians and archeologists.

Abstract Introduction: Patients diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are at an increased risk for developing infections, bleeding events, cardiopulmonary complications, and progressing to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Patients with lower-risk MDS experience a mean life-year loss of about 6 years, and the main focus of treatment is on management of cytopenias, in particular anemia. Currently, limited real-world evidence exists on prevailing treatment patterns and outcomes in lower-risk MDS in the United States (US). Methods: In this retrospective, non-interventional review of medical records, eligible patients (≥ 18 years of age) with diagnosis of lower-risk MDS (with or without ring sideroblasts and with single-lineage or multilineage dysplasia) between July 1, 2013 and September 30, 2018, were identified by participating clinicians. Patients with prior history of AML or other malignant neoplasms were excluded. This is an ongoing study in the US and interim data are described. Study measures descriptively summarized patient demographics, clinical characteristics at MDS diagnosis, and utilization of medication treatments for the management of anemia. Results: Data from medical records of 50 patients with lower-risk MDS were abstracted by 26 hematologist-oncologists in the US. Participating clinicians had been managing treatment for hematology/oncology patients for an average (standard deviation [SD]) of 16.3 (6.7) years, 53.9% practiced in an academic hospital or cancer center, and 46.2% practiced in a community setting. The mean (SD) age for patients with lower-risk MDS at diagnosis was 64.2 (9.9) years, 64.0% were male, 70.0% were White, and 60% were insured primarily through Medicare. Most patients (54.0%) had Low-risk MDS (as categorized by Revised International Prognostic Scoring System) followed by Very low-risk (28.0%), and Intermediate-risk (18.0%) at initial diagnosis. The most common gene mutations observed were JAK2 (22.0%) and ASXL1 (8.0%). The most common karyotype abnormalities observed were del(5q) (28.0%), −Y (14.0%), and del(7q) (12.0%). During the 12 months before diagnosis of lower-risk MDS, cardiac complications were observed among 18.0% of patients, and 58.0% of patients were either current or former smokers at the time of diagnosis of lower-risk MDS. At the time of data abstraction, mean (SD) follow-up time was 39.6 (21.6) months, and 46 (92.0%) patients had received ≥ 1 line of treatment for MDS-associated anemia. Of these 46 patients, 93.5% received first-line treatment with an erythropoietin-stimulating agent (ESA). In the first-line, most patients received ESA monotherapy (n = 37; 80.4%) followed by ESA-based combination therapy (n = 6; 13.0%), lenalidomide only (n = 2; 4.4%), and azacitidine (n = 1; 2.2%). All 18 patients who received a second-line treatment had received an ESA-based first-line treatment. Second-line treatments received were ESA-based treatment (n = 5; 27.8%), lenalidomide only (n = 5; 27.8%), luspatercept only (n = 4; 22.2%), azacitidine only (n = 3; 16.7%), and filgrastim only (n = 1; 5.6%). Third-line treatment was only observed in 3 patients. Conclusions: In this ongoing study, current analysis for 50 patients with lower-risk MDS in the US showed ESA-based regimens were the most common first-line therapy. ESA-based treatment was again utilized as second-line therapy among some patients who were previously treated with ESA.

Motivated by the growing attraction of the mutual fund industry worldwide, this research seeks to explore the economic benefits contributed by the South African equity unit trust managers over the period from 6 January 2002 to 2 September 2012. The performance statistics of selected equity unit trusts are examined for the overall examination period and two sub-periods: 6 January 2002 to 6 May 2007 and 7 May 2007 to 2 September 2012. The first sub-period captures the bullish performance of the unit trusts before the 2008 global financial crisis. The second sub-period captures the global financial crisis and the European debt crisis before the European Central Bank (ECB) subsequently implemented the outright monetary transactions (OMT) to curb the yields in Eurozone. The risk-adjusted performance measures employed by this study include the Sharpe ratio, M-squared, Treynor measure and Jensen’s alpha. Regardless of the different applications of risk-return parameters employed to evaluate fund performance, the results reveal that, on average, most of the equity unit trust managers in South Africa do not outperform the market proxy on a consistent basis. The majority of the unit trust managers show good performance before the crisis, with subsequent inferiority in performance in turbulent times.

Abstract Background: Voriconazole (vori) is routinely used for prophylaxis against fungal infections in BMT. However, vori has interactions with drugs used in transplant which affect the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of each other. These interactions are due to the ability of many drugs to inhibit or induce isoenzymes of cytochrome P-450 family. We had initially reported on therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of vori that systemic steroids and cyclosporine decrease vori levels which could have clinical implications of break through fungal infections. Cyclophosphamide (Cy) in high dose chemotherapy regimens is known to cause hyponatremia possibly due to SIADH. In the present study, we report increased incidence of symptomatic hyponatremia (SHN) in a cohort of patients where vori was used concomitantly with Cy based conditioning. To our knowledge this is first such report. Methods: All patients (autologous-129 allogeneic- 95) who received vori prophylaxis during peritransplant period between September 2008 and January 2014 were included. Vori prophylaxis was started at least 3 days prior to start of conditioning regimen in all patients before April 2011. Since April 2011, patients undergoing transplant received vori 1 day after completion of conditioning regimen unless started earlier due to recent history of systemic fungal infection. All patients above 12 years of age received oral or iv vori at a loading dose of 6 mg/kg (maximum 400 mg) 12 hourly on first day followed by 4mg/kg as maintenance. Patients less than 12 years received 7mg/kg 12 hourly. Trough vori levels were measured between day 5 and day 7 after start of the drug. Subsequent levels were done 2-4 weekly till discontinuation of drug. Conditioning regimens used for allogeneic transplant were either myeloablative (TBI-Cy or busulfan-Cy) or reduced intensity (fludarabine with either melphalan, busulfan or cyclophosphamide +/- 2 Gy TBI).Conditioning regimens for autologous transplants included LACE (lomustine- 200mg/m2 d-7, ara-c- 2000 mg/m2 d-6 and d-5,cyclophosphamide- 1800 mg/m2 d-4 to d-2, etoposide- 1,000 mg/m2 d-7) or BEAM for lymphomas, melphalan 200 mg/m2 for multiple myeloma and BuMel for neuroblastoma and Ewing's sarcoma. Vori was continued for at least 100 days for all patients undergoing allogeneic transplant and longer if patients were on steroids due to GVHD. Autologous transplant patients received it for 28 days.SHN was defined as acute fall in serum level of sodium of greater than 10mEq/L or fall to less than 120mEq/l with any of the following symptoms i.e. headache, vomiting, confusion or seizures. Fluid restriction was advised for all patients and 3% hypertonic saline was used with rate of infusion adjusted so as to not increase the serum Na+ level more than 10mEq/L over 24 hours. Further doses of Cy were withheld if symptoms persisted or if Na+ level failed to normalize (i.e. >130 mEq/L) within 24-48 hours. Vori levels in plasma were determined by a validated HPLC assay. Results: Two hundred and twenty four patients were monitored 953 times for vori levels during this period. The median number of TDM was 3 (1-32) per patient. One hundred thirteen patients received vori prophylaxis from the start of conditioning regimen while 111 received vori after completion of conditioning regimen. See Fig. 1. SHN was seen only in patients who received Cy based conditioning therapy, 13 (23%) in the concomitant cohort compared to only 2 (3%) in the sequential group(P=0.0016). The median fall of Na + level was 14 mEq/L (5.2- 25.9).Six patients received hypertonic saline. One patient developed seizure. All patients recovered from hyponatremia. In the concomitant cohort, the median vori levels in patients who developed SHN was 2.8 ug/ml compared to 2.3 ug/ml in patients who did not (P= NS). Further doses of Cy were withheld only in 2 patients while deferred by 24-48 hours in 4 patients. All modifications in further Cy doses occurred in the concomitant group. No other drug was stopped including vori. Conclusions: Concomitant use of vori with Cy based conditioning regimens increases the incidence of symptomatic hyponatremia. This suggests that vori affects the metabolism of cyclophosphamide possibly through cytochrome P-450 system that increases the risk of symptomatic hyponatremia. This interaction should be borne in mind in the setting of transplant and vori should be started after the completion of conditioning therapy wherever possible. Figure 1 Figure 1.

The Covid-19 pandemic, which began in March 2020, resulted in enacting an online learning policy on campus. This study aimed to analyze the effect of online lecture policies on the composition of birds in the rice fields around Campus 4 of Universitas Ahmad Dahlan (UAD) Yogyakarta. Primary data collection was carried out at six points with the point count method in September 2020 and January 2021. Data analysis was carried out descriptivel by comparing observations with secondary data in September 2019 and January 2020, right before the Covid-19 pandemic. The results showed that the bird species present increased from 14 species to 32 species. The different paddy fields and rice morphology conditions in September and January also affect the bird species present. All birds present were not protected, and only one species, Acridotheres javanicus, was included in the IUCN Red List vulnerable category. Data collection on bird species must be carried out every year to monitor the presence of waterbirds in urban areas.

Texto completoResumen
We conducted surveys in 1983 and 1984 of submersed macrophyte communities off six islands in the St. Clair and Detroit rivers using low altitude aerial photography and ground-truth collections. Sample collections in 1984 followed one of the coldest winters on record, during which ice up to 4 m thick developed in areas that were normally ice-free. Growth of many of the 20 taxa collected was delayed in the spring of 1984, as compared with the spring of 1983. By September 1984, however, total abundance of all taxa was equal to or greater than that in 1983. The location, size, and shape of plant beds in September 1984 were similar to those in 1983. We concluded that the unusual ice jam in early spring of 1984 had little, if any, permanent effect on submersed macrophytes in the St. Clair and Detroit rivers.

Before September 11, 2001, a mass-casualty terrorist attack on American soil was generally considered a remote possibility. Similarly, before October 4, 2001—the first confirmed case of anthrax caused by intentional release — widespread bioterrorism seemed implausible. Among the arguments that such a biological artack was unlikely included: the lack of a historical precedent; the technological and organizational challenges to acquiring and weaponizing a biological agent; and the almost universal moral opprobrium that would certainly accompany the use by terrorists of such a weapon. In the wake of September 11th and October 4th, however, many are reconsidering the likelihood of a large-scale bioterrorist attack against civilians.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines bioterrorism as the intentional release of viruses, bacteria, or toxins for the purpose of harming or killing civilian. One measurement of the public health system's level of bioterrorism preparedness is the quality and distribution of laws mandating the reporting of diseases caused by certain biological agents.

Since the 1980s, 3 major hurricanes have made landfall on Puerto Rico: Hugo in September 1989 (Saffir-Simpson scale, category 4), Georges in September 1998 (category 3) and María in September 2017 (category 4). María was the most devastating hurricane since the 3 major hurricanes that occurred in 1899-�1932. Major hurricanes can cause severe abundance declines and population bottlenecks by decreasing survival and reproductive rates and increasing predation and competition for limited resources. In April to June 1986-2021, we used distance sampling to estimate abundance and monitor the population dynamics of the endangered Puerto Rico plain pigeon Patagioenas inornata wetmorei and the abundant scaly-naped pigeon P. squamosa and red-tailed hawk Buteo jamaicensis. Here, we fit a Bayesian state-space logistic model with distance sampling abundance estimates to generate posterior estimates of maximum population growth rate and population carrying capacity, and predict abundance in April to June 2020-2030. In addition, we used N-mixture and 2-species models to assess association patterns in April to June 2015-2019. The scaly-naped pigeon and red-tailed hawk populations did not decline, or recovered faster from their declines than the plain pigeon population after the hurricanes. The association patterns between species were positive but variable for the 2 pigeon species and negative but variable for the plain pigeon and red-tailed hawk. At lowered abundance (i.e. mean ± SE estimates N̂ = 1043 ± 476 island-wide and N̂ = 522 ± 157 at the centre of abundance in the east-central region in April to June 2018-2021), the plain pigeon may become extinct if another hurricane with the path and intensity of María makes landfall on the island during the current decade.

On September 20, 2022, an Ebola Disease (EBOD) outbreak was declared in Mubende district, Central Uganda. Following a rapid surge in the number of cases and mortality, the Government of Uganda imposed a lockdown in the two most affected districts, Mubende and Kassanda. We describe the trends in EBOD incidence and mortality nationally and in the two districts before and during the lockdown and the lessons learned during the epidemic response. We retrieved data from the Ministry of Health situation reports from September 20, 2022, when the EBOD outbreak was declared until November 26, 2022, when the lockdown ended. We graphed trends in EBOD morbidity and mortality during a 3-week and 6-week lockdown, computed the EBOD case fatality rate, and summarized the major lessons learned during the epidemic response. We found case fatality rate during the pre-lockdown, 3-week lockdown, and 6-week lockdown period was 37.9% (22/58), 39.3% (53/135), and 38.7% (55/142), respectively. In the early weeks of the lockdown, EBOD incidence and mortality increased nationally and in Kassanda district while Mubende district registered a decline in incidence and stagnation in mortality. With the extension of the lockdown to six weeks, the EBOD incidence and mortality during the 4-6-week lockdown declined compared to the pre-lockdown period. In conclusion, the EBOD incidence and mortality remained higher in the early weeks of the lockdown than during the pre-lockdown period nationally and in one of the two districts. With extended lockdown, incidence and mortality dropped in the 4-6-week period than the pre-lockdown period. Therefore, reliance on known public health measures to control an EBOD outbreak is important.

The factors that predict treatment of lung injury in occupational cohorts are poorly defined. We aimed to identify patient characteristics associated with initiation of treatment with inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting beta-agonist (ICS/LABA) >2 years among World Trade Center (WTC)-exposed firefighters. The study population included 8530 WTC-exposed firefighters. Multivariable logistic regression assessed the association of patient characteristics with ICS/LABA treatment for >2 years over two-year intervals from 11 September 2001–10 September 2017. Cox proportional hazards models measured the association of high probability of ICS/LABA initiation with actual ICS/LABA initiation in subsequent intervals. Between 11 September 2001–1 July 2018, 1629/8530 (19.1%) firefighters initiated ICS/LABA treatment for >2 years. Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 s (FEV1), wheeze, and dyspnea were consistently and independently associated with ICS/LABA treatment. High-intensity WTC exposure was associated with ICS/LABA between 11 September 2001–10 September 2003. The 10th percentile of risk for ICS/LABA between 11 September 2005–10 Septmeber 2007 was associated with a 3.32-fold increased hazard of actual ICS/LABA initiation in the subsequent 4 years. In firefighters with WTC exposure, FEV1, wheeze, and dyspnea were independently associated with prolonged ICS/LABA treatment. A high risk for treatment was identifiable from routine monitoring exam results years before treatment initiation.

The issue of pursuance of claims connected with damage inflicted by defective administrative decision was regulated by section 160 of the Administrative Procedure Code (APC) until 1 September 2004. The section was the basis for pursuance of claim in connection with ascertaining invalidity of administrative decision or a decision issued with breach of the law. However, since 1 September 2004, i.e. after the amendment of the Civil Procedure Code(CPC) came into force, the basis for liability for damage caused by final administrative decision issued before 1 September 2004 – even if its invalidity or issuing with breach of law were established after that date – constitutes section 160 of the APC - but only in the aspect of determining the wrongful act or premisses of responsibility (clauses 1–3) and also prescription of claim (clause 6). It is not applicable to the procedure (mode) of pursuance of claim (clause 4&5). In the present law, regardless of the date of issue of decision, the appropriate and only way of pursuance of claim is a lawsuit in court. This means that the administrative mode has been excluded, regardless of the basis of responsibility arising from section 160 of the APC or section 417(clause 2) of the CPC. The range of responsibility for defective decision issued before 1 Sept 2004 has also been differentiated, since the party claiming damage can demand compensation for sustained losses and lost benefits on the basis of section 160 of the APC – if the damage was caused between 17 Oct 1997 and 31 Aug 2004. If the damage was caused before 17 Oct 1997, the party can only demand compensation for sustained losses.

Abstract. Previous published work after the Kobe and İzmit earthquakes (1995 and 1999, respectively) demonstrated some reported meteorological and animal behaviour precursors were valid. Predictions were freshly tested for the Christchurch earthquake (M = 7.1, 4 September 2010). An internet survey with nearly 400 valid replies showed relative numbers of reports in precursor categories the day before the quake, were statistically significantly different from those in the preceding three days (excess meteorological events and animal behaviour). The day before the quake, there was also altered relative precursor class occurrence within 56 km compared with further away. Both these confirmed the earlier published work. Owners were woken up by unique pet behaviour 12 times as often in the hour before the quake compared with other hours immediately before (statistically highly significant). Lost and Found pet reports were double normal the week before, and 4.5 times normal both the day before the quake, and 9 days before. (Results were again statistically significant). Unique animal behaviour before the quake was often repeated before the numerous aftershocks. These pet owners claimed an approximate 80% prediction reliability. However, a preliminary telephone survey suggested that animals showing any precursor response are a minority. Some precursors seem real, but usefulness seemed mostly restricted to 7 cases where owners were in, or near, a place of safety through disruptive pet behaviour, and one in which owners were diverted by a pet from being struck by falling fixtures. For a later 22 February 2011 M = 6.3 quake no reports of escape through warning by pets were recorded, which raises serious questions whether such prediction is practically useful, because lives claimed saved are extremely low compared with fatalities. It is shown the lost-pet statistics dates, correspond to ionospheric anomalies recorded using the GPS satellite system and geomagnetic disturbance data, and claimed as precursory. The latter more objective measurements may be the way of the future, but improved statistical treatment should include observations over longer periods of time without earthquakes.

We assessed changes in density, distribution, and microhabitat of age-0 rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in Silver Creek, a partially spring-fed stream, by periodic snorkeling in August 1987 through January 1988. We examined trout stomach contents and invertebrate drift samples in diel collections in August, September, October, and January to test if the period of feeding shifted from daytime to nighttime, concurrent with a transition to day concealment. In late September, fish aggregated briefly during the day and then began to conceal themselves in macrophyte beds, undercut banks, and submerged sedges and grasses along streambanks as temperature dropped below 8 °C in early October. Fish emerged from concealment at night, and numbers of trout visible were greatest 30–60 min after sunset and about 30 min before sunrise. Periods of peak feeding changed from afternoon and evening in August and September, when fish were day active, to mainly at night in October after the initiation of day concealment. Trout did not feed upon abundant chironomids in the daytime drift in October. In January, fish fed at 1–4 °C on mayflies, and stomachs were fullest in the early morning. Observations suggest that Silver Creek trout experienced a metabolic deficit that began in September.

Abstract. Results of simultaneous LF subionospheric monitoring over two different propagation paths prior to the very strong Tokachi earthquake (near the east coast of Hokkaido Island, 25 September 2003) of magnitude 8.3 are presented firstly. Nighttime amplitude fluctuations of the Japanese Time Standard Transmitter (JG2AS, 40kHz) signal received at Moshiri (Japan, 142°E, 44°N) and at Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski (Russia, 158°E, 53°N) were analyzed. As a possible precursory signature we observed synchronous intensification of quasi periodical 16-day variations of the dispersion in the signals received at both observation stations before the earthquake. The strongest deviations observed as a rule were depletions of signal amplitude probably connected with increase of loss in the ionosphere by the enhancement of turbulence. This is due to dissipation of internal gravity waves (IGW) at the lower ionosphere heights. A scheme for seismo-IGW-planetary waves (PW) interconnection has been justified to explain the observed connection with strong earthquakes. It considers the seasonal variability in the signal.

To investigate the microbiological effects of a hide-on carcass decontaminating treatment recently implemented at a beef packing plant, carcasses undergoing routine processing at the plant were sampled during successive periods in January/February, April/May, and September/October. During each period, samples were collected from carcasses before and after the decontamination of hide-on carcasses, after skinning, before decontamination of the skinned carcasses, and at the end of the carcass dressing process. At each stage of processing during each period, samples were obtained by swabbing an area of 1,000 cm2 on each of 25 carcasses. Aerobes, coliforms, and Escherichia coli were enumerated. In most samples, coliforms were predominantly E. coli. In all three periods, the log mean numbers of aerobes and E. coli recovered from hides before decontamination were between 6.6 and 6.8 and between 5.3 and 5.9 log CFU/1,000 cm2, respectively. The log mean numbers of aerobes recovered from decontaminated hides were 6.6 log CFU/1,000 cm2 in January/February and April/May but 5.4 log CFU/1,000 cm2 in September/October. The log total numbers of E. coli recovered from decontaminated hides in January/February and April/May were 2.4 and 3.8 log CFU/25,000 cm2, respectively, but no E. coli was recovered from such carcasses in September/October. Log total numbers of aerobes and E. coli recovered from skinned or dressed carcasses were mostly >4 and between 1 and 2 log CFU/25,000 cm2, respectively. Typing of 480 E. coli isolates by multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) identified 218 MLVA types. Most isolates recovered from carcasses in different periods or at different stages of processing were of different MLVA types. However, small numbers of MLVA types were recovered in more than one period or from both hides before and after decontamination and skinned or dressed carcasses. The findings show that the hide-decontaminating treatment disrupted the usual transfer of E. coli from hides to meat surfaces during carcass skinning.

AbstractObjectiveTo examine UK country and ethnic variations in infant feeding practices.DesignCohort study.SettingInfants enrolled in the Millennium Cohort Study, born between September 2000 and January 2002.SubjectsA total of 18 150 natural mothers (11 286 (8207 white) living in England) of singleton infants.Outcome measuresBreast-feeding initiation, breast-feeding discontinuation and introduction of solid foods before 4 months.Explanatory variablesMaternal ethnic group, education and social class.ResultsSeventy per cent of UK mothers started to breast-feed, of whom 62% stopped before 4 months. Median age at discontinuing breast-feeding was 14, 13, 10 and 6 weeks in Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland, respectively. Thirty-six per cent of UK mothers (34% in England) introduced solids before 4 months. White mothers were more likely to discontinue breast-feeding (62%) and introduce solids early (37%) than most other ethnic minority groups; those stopping before 4 months were more likely to introduce solids early compared with those continuing to breast-feed beyond this age (adjusted rate ratio (95% confidence interval): 1.3 (1.1–1.2)). Educated mothers were less likely to stop breast-feeding before 4 months (white mothers, 0.8 (0.8–0.9); non-white mothers, 0.9 (0.8–1.0)) than those with no/minimal qualifications but, among ethnic minorities, were more likely to introduce solids early (1.3 (1.0–1.6)). Socio-economic status was positively associated with breast-feeding continuation among white women, and with age at introduction of solids among non-white women.ConclusionsWe have identified important geographic, ethnic and social inequalities in breast-feeding continuation and introduction of solids within the UK, many of which have not been reported previously. The factors mediating these associations are complex and merit further study to ensure that interventions proposed to promote maternal adherence to current infant feeding recommendations are appropriate and effective.

Global institutional changes (GICs), having influenced energy prices, led to a steady upward trend in carbon prices on the EU ETS. The aim of the article is to assess the changes in the relationship between carbon prices and energy prices under GICs. The Bai–Perron tests for structural breaks identified two dates as the breakpoint, 21 April 2016 and 21 September 2020. We test the hypothesis that powerful external factors (GIC) are changing the trend pattern of the carbon price time series. New pricing rules of the carbon price are being formed after the breakpoint. We use daily observations from 4 January 2010 to 1 September 2022. We use GARCH models with multiple stationary time series to discover a relationship energy price with the carbon price before and after the break points. We found that three models for two breakpoints better describe the relationship between carbon prices and energy prices than two models for one breakpoint, much less one model for the entire period. We find that the carbon price depends on energy prices, especially on the price of oil, in a statistically significant way, but the gas price is not statistically significant after 21 September 2020.

Herbaceous cover of luvic chernozem (seven years set aside) with legumes, perennial grasses and their mixture was desiccated by the glyphosate herbicide Roundup Biaktiv (5 l/ha at July 2003 and 4 l/ha at June 2004). 165 soil samples were collected before (November 2002–July 2003) and after desiccation (September 2003–August 2004). Desiccation had a strong positive effect on immobilization of organic carbon from herbaceous cover and underground biomass to microbial biomass carbon (MBC) and to soil organic carbon (C<sub>org</sub>), respectively. A significant increase after desiccation (p < 0.01) was confirmed in the parameters: C<sub>org</sub>, MBC and in the ratio MBC/C<sub>org</sub>. At the same time the desiccation had a retardation effect on mineralization of C<sub>org</sub>, N<sub>org</sub> and S<sub>org</sub>. A significant decrease after desiccation (p < 0.01) was confirmed in the basal and potential respiration (with nitrogen, with nitrogen and glucose), actual content of N-NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> without and with pre-incubation, control ammonification, and (p < 0.05) in arylsulphatase activity. The actual content of NO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> and the control nitrification increased significantly (p < 0.01) after desiccation. Plots management before desiccation included black and spontaneous fallow, mulching (one or two per year) and cutting (three times per year), plots with 4 legumes, 4 grasses and their mixtures. Mulching variants showed the best results both before and after desiccation. The soils with cutting treatment ranked 8<sup>th</sup>–10<sup>th</sup> out of 11 studied combinations.

(1) Background: COVID-19 has spread worldwide and affected Taiwan’s medical system and people’s lives. This study aimed to explore the impact of medical utilization on the characteristics and length of stay (LOS) of elderly emergency department (ED) patients before and after COVID-19; (2) Methods: We gathered ED visits from January to September 2019 (pre-pandemic group) and from January to September 2020 (pandemic group). The data analysis methods included descriptive statistics, the Pearson’s chi-square test, the independent sample t-test, and binary logistic regression; (3) Results: In 2020, during COVID-19, a significant decrease in ED monthly visits occurred from January; the maximum decrease was 32% in March. The average LOS during COVID-19 was shortened, with a significant reduction in diagnoses compared with the pre-pandemic period; (4) Conclusions: The threat of COVID-19 has changed the elderly’s behavior in ED visits and shortened the LOS of ED. The study’s results emphasize the importance of analyzing the medical utilization of elderly ED patients and understanding the medical quality of healthcare institutions. With Taiwan’s rapidly aging society, the demand for healthcare increases from time to time. The overcrowding of medical attention is often a problem. The results recommend that the overcrowding problem has the opportunity to be solved.

Before its 2010 eruption, Sinabung Volcano was a Btype volcano, in its Indonesian classification. A series of explosions featuring 1-5 km high phreatic-ash columns occurred from August 27, 2010 untill September 7, 2010. SO2 flux measured during the eruptions showed sizeable gas emission and the youngest volcanic product has age of 1200 years BP obtained from 14C dating. At the end of August 2010, four continuous seismic stations were established around the volcano, and 6 additional stations were deployed in October 2010. Deformation monitoring was conducted temporarily till in February 2011, four continuous GPS stations were installed. All were set up through collaboration between Indonesian and Japanese academic and government institutions. Hypocenter calculations using data of 4 seismic stations fromSeptember to October 2010 showed two concentrations for shallow volcanic earthquakes (VTB) 0.5-2 km beneath the crater and for deep volcanic earthquakes (VTA) 2.5-14 km beneath the crater. These epicenters defined a northeast-southwest lineament, near an elongated sinistral fault zone between Sinabung and Sibayak volcanoes. Earthquake sources went deeper northeastward. Results using the data of 10 stations from November 2010 to February 2011 showed that earthquakes were concentrated at depths of 4-6 km beneath Lake Lau Kawar. Tilt and Electro-optic Distance Measurement (EDM) measurements from August to September 2010 showed no significant changes We inferred that since the last explosion in 7 September 2010, stabilization process both in pressure and energy were low.

Five strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cultivars were grown in Queensland, Australia to determine whether higher temperatures affect production. Transplants were planted on 29 April and data collected on growth, marketable yield, fruit weight and the incidence of small fruit less than 12 g until 28 October. Additional data were collected on fruit soluble solids content (SSC) and titratable acidity (TA) from 16 September to 28 October. Minimum temperatures were 2 °C to 4 °C higher than the long-term averages from 1965 to 1990. Changes in marketable yield followed a dose-logistic pattern (p < 0.001, R2s = 0.99). There was a strong negative relationship between fruit weight (marketable) and the average daily mean temperature in the four or seven weeks before harvest from 29 July to 28 October (p < 0.001, R2s = 0.90). There were no significant relationships between SSC and TA, and temperatures in the eight days before harvest from 16 September to 28 October (p > 0.05). The plants continued to produce a marketable crop towards the end of the season, but the fruit were small and more expensive to harvest. Higher temperatures in the future are likely to affect the economics of strawberry production in subtropical locations.

The paper presents the results of retrospective and tectonophysical analysis in the source area of the September 25, 2003 Mw = 8.3 Tokachi-Oki earthquake. Particular attention is paid to the Hidaka tectonic belt, the structures of which are involved in the Tokachi-Oki earthquake. The load-unload response ratio (LURR) method was applied at sufficient spatial (a square with a side of about 400 km) and temporal (continuous 20-year period) intervals to consider the results reliable. The harbingers for the Tokachi-Oki earthquake were obtained (2 years on average before the event), which strictly determined the earthquake location. Findings of the characterization of weak cataclastic fault rocks together with LURR results showed the stages of instability development in the Hidaka collision zone. The Hidaka tectonic belt was delineated by destruction zones (mainly horizontal compression) from 1997 to 2003 (up to the Tokachi-Oki earthquake). The LURR anomalies were detected along the belt a couple of years before the earthquake. The Tokachi-Oki earthquake prediction by the LURR method is one of the best in our practice.

e11575 Background: Several authors reported sentinel lymph node biopsy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Nevertheless, the ideal time of sentinel lymph node biopsy is still a matter of debate. Methods: We evaluated the feasibility and the accuracy of sentinel lymph node biopsy before neoadjuvant chemotherapy using a combined procedure (blue dye and radio-labelled detection) in a homogeneous cohort study with clinically axillary node-negative breast cancer. Study candidates were patients referred to the Institut Paoli-Calmettes Cancer Center (Marseille, France) for the treatment of invasive breast cancer. Patients were included in the study if they had tumor more than 3 cm in diameter without palpable axillary lymph node for which a neoadjuvant chemotherapy was indicated in order to enhance the likelihood of breast conservation. An axillary lymph node dissection was performed after completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Results: From September 2005 to September 2007, thirty-one women with T2 or T3 invasive breast cancer without palpable axillary lymph node underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy before neoadjuvant chemotherapy and an axillary lymph node dissection after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Among the 20 women who had metastatic sentinel lymph node biopsy (65%), 4 (20%) had additional metastatic node on axillary lymph node dissection. By contrast, all the 11 women who had no metastatic sentinel lymph node biopsy had no involved nodes in the axillary lymph node dissection. The sentinel lymph node biopsy identification rate before neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 100% with any false negative. Conclusions: Sentinel lymph node biopsy before neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a feasible and an accurate diagnostic tool to predict the pre-therapeutic axilla status. These findings suggest that axillary lymph node dissection may be avoided in patients with a negative sentinel lymph node biopsy performed before neoadjuvant chemotherapy. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

The patient, admitted in childbirth to the Elizavetgrad hospital on September 16, was healthy before her marriage, menstruated correctly after 4 weeks; she married at 18, and gave birth to a dead child in her second year. The second birth a year later ended with perforation due to narrowing of the outlet. After this birth she was ill; was treated, but unsuccessfully, for a tumor, and in view of the danger she was advised to beware of pregnancy. A year later, she became pregnant again and on time, September 15, labor began; the waters disappeared soon, the pain intensified, there was a breakdown, nausea and vomiting. Objectively: the subject is strong, the pelvis is correct, weak activity of the heart and pulse, t is normal, nausea and vomiting, constipation, bloating and pain in the lower abdomen, a sharp protrusion of the abdomen with the designation of the fetal position, fetal heartbeat is not audible, from the sleeve ichor with a smell.
