Objective The aim of the study was to use a software application to analyze the examination times and changeover times of two clinically highly applied MRI scanners at a university hospital for radiology and to evaluate whether this could result in optimization potential for examination planning in the daily clinical routine of MRI diagnostics. Materials and Methods Based on the newly developed software application “Teamplay Usage” (Siemens Healthineers, Germany), the examinations carried out on two MRI scanners (1.5 T and 3 T) were investigated within an analysis period of 12 months with regard to the type of examination and its duration. In addition, compliance with the previously defined planning time (30, 45, 60 min.) was checked and deviations were analyzed. In addition, the changeover times between the examinations were determined and a possible influence due to the exchange of MRI coils was investigated for a selection of change combinations. Results For the total of 7184 (1.5 T: 3740; 3 T: 3444) examinations included in the study, the median examination time was 43:02 minutes (1.5 T: 43:17 min.; 3 T: 42:45 min.). The ten most frequent types of examinations per MRI scanner were completed within the predefined plan time of 54.5 % (1.5 T) and 51.9 % (3 T), taking into account a previously defined preparation and post-processing time of 9 minutes per examination. Overall, more time was spent on examinations with a planned time of 30 minutes, whereas the majority of the examinations planned with 45 minutes were also completed within this time. Examinations with a planned time of 60 minutes usually took less time. A comparison between the planned time and the determined examination duration of the most common types of examinations showed overall a slight potential for optimization. Coil exchanges between two examinations had a small, but statistically not significant effect on the median changeover time (p = 0.062). Conclusion Utilizing a software-based analysis, a detailed overview of the type of examination, examination duration, and changeover times of frequently used clinical MRI scanners could be obtained. In the clinic examined, there was little potential for optimization of examination planning. An exchange of MRI coils necessary for different types of examination only had a small effect on the changeover times. Key Points: Citation Format

Aims and MethodFactors leading to success in the MRCPsych Part I and Part II examinations, including age, gender and original medical school of training, were examined in the 1999 MRCPsych examination entrants to determine how far they are associated with the results. The ethnic breakdown of examiners of the MRCPsych examinations was also determined and compared with the origin of all consultant psychiatrists.ResultsYounger age at taking the examination and training at a British or Irish medical school were found to be highly significant predictors of success in the MRCPsych examinations. When allowance was made for confounding variables, the gender of candidates did not contribute to success. There was no difference in ethnic background of examiners compared with consultant psychiatrists overall.Clinical ImplicationsFactors affecting trainees wishing to undertake a psychiatric career need to be more closely examined. To ensure fairness and transparency in future examinations the ethnicity of candidates taking the examination needs to be addressed.

Background: Examination methods change over time, and audits are useful for quality assurance and improvement. Objective: Comparison of traditional clinical test and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) in a department of surgery. Methods: Examination records of results of the fifth year MBChB examinations for 2012–2013 (traditional) and 2014–2015 (OSCE) were analyzed. Using 50% as the pre-agreed pass mark, the pass rate for the clinical examinations in each year was calculated and these figures were subjected to t-test to determine any significant differences in each year and in type of clinical test. P value of <0.05 determined significant statistical differences in the test score. Results: We analyzed 1178 results; most (55.6%) did OSCE. The average clinical scores examinations were 59.7% for traditional vs 60.1% for OSCE examination; basic surgical skills were positively skewed. Conclusion: OSCE in the same setting of teaching and examiners may give more marks than the traditional clinical examination, but it is better at detecting areas of inadequacies for emphasis in teaching. Keywords: Clinical examination, Traditional, OSCE, Comparison

Micanfin (Biocan-M?, Bioveta) is a new veterinary drug used successfully in the treatment and prophylaxis of dermetomycosis in dogs and cats. In this study, leukotrichia was determined after administration of Micanfin and the objective was to determine the diagnosis and treatment protocol of the case. The case was a male Rottweiler dog, aged four, weighing 35 kg, presented with alopecia at a special veterinary clinic. A routine clinical examination, skin scraping, and antibiogram-mycologic examination of the body fluids were performed. A hematological examination and the levels of some serum parameters were determined. At the end of mycologic examinations, while there was no reproduction, it was found that the serum zinc level was very low. It was detected after other laboratory examinations that the case was hypothyroidism. All the body hair, except for a small area locally returned to the original colour, decreased activity reported by the animal owner disappeared at the end of the zinc applications and the treatment performed for the hypothyroidism (Biocan-M?). In conclusion, it was determined that the Micanfin vaccine application had not caused any side effects such as leukotrichia and the case was hypothyroidism.

The article studies the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues. The objective of the article is to study the peculiarities of the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues, including practical activities of Kirovohrad State Research Forensic Centre of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. The study was conducted on the basis of the systematic approach using methods of analysis, generalization, grouping and comparison. The method of graphical representation was used for better perception of information about the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues. It was found that forensic examination and expert research on economic issues is appointed on general grounds in compliance with the Law of Ukraine "On Forensic Examination", Instruction on appointment and conduct of forensic examinations and expert research and Scientific and methodological recommendations on preparation and appointment of forensic examinations and expert research and procedural law. Forensic economic examination includes: examination of accounting documents, tax accounting and reporting; examination of documents on economic activity of enterprises and organizations; examination of documents of financial and credit transactions. Judicial expertise and expert research on economic issues are subordinated to the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine and expert services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine and the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine. In general, the procedure for the appointment and conduct of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues, as well as the rights, duties and responsibilities of forensic experts in procedural law are similar. It is established that the basis for the forensic examination is the relevant court decision or the decision of the pre-trial investigation body, or a contract with an expert or expert institution if the examination is conducted at the request of others. It is determined that in Ukraine, in accordance with the procedural legislation of Ukraine, experts perform primary, additional, repeated, commission and complex examinations, and expert examinations are performed in the manner prescribed for examinations. The peculiarities of the organization of complex and commission forensic economic examination are generalized. Prospects for further research are seen in the analysis of the existing procedure for documenting the results of examinations and expert studies, features of the choice of research methods and methods of forensic economic examinations, as well as in improving regulations and normative documents on the organization of forensic examinations and expert research on economic issues.

Liver tissue samples were taken by biopsy from Holstein cows in advanced stages of gravidity and in early lactation for pathological-histological examinations. Lipid content in hepatocytes was determined using the stereometric method by calculating volume density, and of glycogen using semi-quantitative microscopic examination of sections stained according to the method of Best. Pathological-histological examinations of liver tissue samples in healthy animals, gravid or peripartal cows did not reveal lipid infiltration or cell degeneration, and hepatocytes were completely or partly filled with glycogen. In ketotic cows, pathological-histological examinations of liver tissue samples showed lipid infiltration and hepatocyte degeneration of different intensity. In only one ketotic cow, we determined a slight degree of lipid infiltration, there was a medium degree of lipid infiltration and degeneration in six cows, and three cows were found to have a grave form of fatty liver. The quantity of glycogen in hepatocytes is in negative correlation with the degree of lipid infiltration and degeneration. In severe cases of fatty liver, glycogen is completely absent from hepatocyte cytoplasm.

The aim of this magister thesis is to examine the motives behind parents´ choice to sex determine their children, or not, at routine ultrasound examination (RUL). The analysed empirical data consists of 261 responding questionnaires written by expecting parents. My conclusions are that the motives behind parents’ choice can reflect their view of sex as binary or analog. Many parents sex determine their unborn children in order for preparing their rooms, clothes and toys to correlate with the heterosexual matrix. Girls get pink and boys blue, but the colours are of course only the visible part of how children are sexed as social construction. Some parents are experiencing a peer pressure and quite a few parents are influenced by the midwife performing the RUL to chose to sex determine their child. The most common motive to abstain from sex determining the child at RUL is after all to make gender the big happening at birth. Parents prepare to raise – not a child – but a boy or girl.

The objective of this thesis was to analyze data obtained from a network of Ocean Bottom Seismometers to determine if it could be used to provide detailed information regarding merchant vessels such as their direction and draft. The sensors were located in the Strait of Juan de Fuca and collected data from AugustSeptember, 2009. The hydrophone and three orthogonal seismometer channels were beamformed in MATLAB as a vector sensor in an attempt to get bearing data on a passing ship. Frequencies were limited to about 80Hz due to the low sampling frequency. A Lloyds mirror pattern from the ships broadband noise was visible in the lofargrams from all four channels during this transit. The Lloyds mirror pattern was compared qualitatively with theoretical predictions from ray theory as well as with transmission loss predictions from the parabolic equation model run in PC-IMAT. Vector sensor beamforming proved unsuccessful due to the lack of coherence and erratic phase differences among the sensors. This erratic behavior is probably due to multipath effects. Both ray theory and PC-IMAT models show promise for exploiting the Lloyds mirror patterns. The expected interference patterns show a clear dependence on range and draft.

While preference assessments are effective at identifying potential reinforcers, they consume large amounts of time and resources. Multiple variations have been developed in order to save time and money when conducting assessments such as briefer versions, pictorial formats, and verbal formats. The purpose of this study was to examine the efficacy of three different brief MSWO procedures at identifying effective reinforcers for children with developmental disabilities. The procedures of the current study examined a tangible brief MSWO procedure which provided access to the edibles, a pictorial brief MSWO procedure which provided access to the edibles, and a pictorial brief MSWO procedure which did not provide access to edibles. After hierarchies from all three assessments were identified, reinforcer assessments were conducted to determine the efficacy of highly preferred stimuli. Results indicated that all three formats were able to identify effective reinforcers, with similar hierarchies produced for three out of four participants.

This study was designed to determine (1) the level of priority that employees of nonprofit counseling agencies affiliated with the National Foundation for Consumer Credit (NFCC) feel the topics of credit, personal finance, investments, counseling, and consumer education should be given on a national certification examination for financial counselors, and (2) to determine the viewpoints of NFCC counselors concerning the format of a national certification examination.

Data were collected with a 162-item questionnaire from 281 individuals employed by nonprofit counseling agencies affiliated with the NFCC; this represented an 83% response rate. Respondents were asked to prioritize 138-items on a scale of 1 for low priority to 5 for high priority. The items were distributed unevenly among the five topic areas.

The overall mean priority score of all five topic areas was 3.6. Credit and counseling both received the highest individual topic mean priority score of 4.1.

This thesis examines whether the introduction of the Civil Contingencies Act 2004 and the establishment of Strategic Coordinating Groups (SCGs) within an integrated emergency management framework provides Scotland with an effective crisis response structure and resilience. A key aspect of resilience is the ability of the SCGs to learn from previous experiences. This research will consider the organisational learning of the SCGs to determine whether it is as effective as it could be. It first focuses on the organisational structure of the SCG and analyses it in terms of network management to determine its crisis management effectiveness. It then considers whether the SCGs are suitably adaptive to crises and learn from the experience of managing them and thereby enhance their preventative capability, as envisaged by the resilience policy. The principal argument is that the current structure does not ensure effective organisational learning and therefore Scotland’s resilience is diminished. Design/Methodology/Approach A qualitative approach is used. Data is gathered through interviews and non-participant observations, and interpreted by a combination of inductive and deductive approaches. The use of triangulation of data enhances its validity. Systems theory provides analytical frameworks to examine the SCG structure and processes, and to determine whether SCGs successfully achieve the desired outcome of resilience and effective crisis management. Findings/Practical Implications Using the systems approach identifies that real world SCGs have a number of variances from the ideal state. The current SCG structure is complex which makes communication and coordination challenging, which undermines the SCG crisis response. The absence of a dynamic monitoring mechanism within the SCG makes it difficult to learn lessons from previous crises and adapt to environmental changes. The thesis concludes by making a number of recommendations for improving SCG crisis management effectiveness and resilience.

AbstractThis chapter examines whether the rules regarding Insurance Product Information Documents mandated in Article 20 of the Insurance Distribution Directive, have, in reality, resulted in policyholders being able to easily and transparently compare different offers in the pre-contractual phase to determine whether an insurance product is appropriate for the policyholder.The format of the Insurance Product Information Document has been determined following thorough analytical work (such as EIOPA’s Draft Implementing Technical Standards concerning a standardised presentation format for the Insurance Product Information Document of the Insurance Distribution Directive of 7 February 2017, EIOPA-17/056, including the related consumer testing and consultations.). However, there are no guidelines or rules for insurers to follow when completing the Insurance Product Information Document. Based on an examination of selected insurance products from various insurers, this chapter concludes that there is a significant discrepancy between how different insurers complete the Insurance Product Information Documents. Such discrepancy occurs even when the cover offered by the insurers is identical or almost identical. This chapter discusses whether this is expedient and whether there is a need to draw up guidelines or rules on the completion of the Insurance Product Information Document in order to provide instructions to the insurers and to allow customers to make informed comparisons of insurance products.On the whole, this chapter concludes that there is a need for at least guidelines, if not regulation, if the Insurance Product Information Document is to be an effective and useful basis for comparison in the pre-contractual phase.

This chapter presents statistical evaluations of script relics. Its concept is exploiting mathematical statistical methods to extract hidden correlations among different script relics. Examining the genealogy of the graphemes of scripts is necessary for exploring the evolution of the writing systems, reading undeciphered inscriptions, and deciphering undeciphered scripts. The chapter focuses on the cluster analysis as one of the most popular mathematical statistical methods. The chapter presents the application of the clustering in the classification of Rovash (pronounced “rove-ash,” an alternative spelling: Rovas) relics. The various Rovash scripts were used by nations in the Eurasian Steppe and in the Carpathian Basin. The specialty of the Rovash paleography is that the Rovash script family shows a vital evolution during the last centuries; therefore, it is ideal to test the models of the evolution of the glyphs. The most important Rovash script is the Szekely-Hungarian Rovash. Cluster analysis algorithms are applied for determining the common sets among the significant Szekely-Hungarian Rovash alphabets. The determined Rovash relic ties prove the usefulness of the clustering methods in the Rovash paleography.

Geographic information systems (GIS) are useful informative systems for reducing the waiting time of diagnostic imaging examinations. ArcGIS software is used to develop a digital questionnaire which is used as a data collection tool. The information concerns the patients' personal information, type of examination required and medical history. Data is collected in real time and through GPS capabilities, the patients' exact coordinates are determined. GIS applications are used to create digital maps which display the average waiting time for performing imaging tests. Questionnaire data and interactive maps are uploaded to a digital platform. Through this application, it is possible to locate patients who actually need diagnostic imaging examinations in real time. Observing the location of patients on digital maps makes it easier to redirect them to the nearest health care units with the shortest waiting time. Data can also be acquired by mobile phones.

The Introduction outlines the key aims of the study, discusses relevant scholarship, and develops the methodology to be employed. In scholarship, council acts have often been used simply as source material for thematic studies, or their examination has been determined principally by editorial concerns. By contrast, the present study analyses the importance of council records as fundamental expression of the councils’ purposes and claims to legitimacy. It brings into scholarly focus the regularly neglected work of administrators and textual practitioners in ancient church councils responsible for the creation of such records, and relates their efforts to practices and concerns in the sphere of civil and legal administration. Council acts need to be understood as the products of distinct practices, in view of their underlying intentions and objectives, and with respect to the material reality of the documents created and handled. Discussions and examinations of conciliar documents, and instructions for their making in the councils themselves, provide the starting points for this investigation.

Persistent pains associated with injuries or disease involving the central nervous system (CNS), are common. In order to optimally manage persistent pain, the primary underlying mechanisms need to be determined and the treatment targeted to these. A comprehensive pain evaluation including symptoms, sensory function/dysfunction, and psychosocial factors is critical to the translation of research into the clinical pain management, to increasing the understanding of the contributory mechanisms and factors, and to the development of effective pain management. This chapter focuses on the assessment of pain and sensory status, associated psychosocial factors, and pharmacological and non-pharmacological pain management after CNS injury and disease. Principles and utility of the various types of pain-related assessments and examinations including pain report, pain classification, quantitative sensory testing, and psychological factors are discussed. Finally, both pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment options for these persistent pain conditions are reviewed and discussed in the context of putative mechanisms.

History taking and examining the patient are essential to making an accurate diagnosis. A thorough medical history is key to the first step towards a diagnosis and will inform the examination and determine appropriate investigations. A clinical history taking can guide the practitioner to a diagnosis whereas examination and investigations merely confirm or refute that considered diagnosis. This chapter covers all aspects of assessing the musculoskeletal nursing patient. It starts by guiding the reader through the essentials of a good consultation and history taking, alongside practical questions to ask and how to conduct general examinations. It then goes on to cover examinations for each part of the body, including the general principles of joint examinations and the physical examination of gait, arms, legs, and spine (GALS).

The panel found that U’s fitness to practise was impaired by reason of both deficient professional performance and his physical or mental health, and directed that his registration be subject to conditions for a period of nine months, with immediate effect. At a General Medical Council (GMC) performance assessment, U was found to be well below the majority of his peers and fell below the minimum standard of the Royal College of Anaesthetists in eight out of ten examinations. On U’s appeal on sanction, Hickinbottom J said, at [16]–[18], that the hallmark of suspension is identified in section 35D(2)(b) of the Medical Act 1983: for a determined period, the registration of the relevant doctor is divested of all effect. Suspension prevents the doctor from practising during the period of suspension. Conditions on registration under section 35D(2)(c) presuppose that the doctor will continue to be effectively registered and will continue to practise, but subject to conditions that enable them to deal with their health or deficiency issues, whilst protecting patients—as well as the integrity of the medical profession—from harm.

In practice, cleavage fracture assessment for ferritic reactor pressure vessel steels is standardized by the quasi-static Master Curve concept (ASTM E 1921) on a macroscopic level. This standard is technically valid for dynamic loading conditions, yet recent work has shown that experimentally determined fracture toughness values under rapid loading lead to discrepancies regarding the shape of the Master Curve. It is assumed that one reason for these discrepancies is the profound adiabatic heating. The investigation of this, as well as related phenomena, is subject of this work. Regarding this work, these experimental discrepancies are specified by a wide range of experiments. Moreover, fractographic investigations were performed on this experimental database to determine the exact origin of cleavage fracture, and compared to data from quasi-static experiments. In a second step numerical simulations were conducted for various crack-tip loading rates and testing temperatures, whereupon the temperature development in the cleavage fracture relevant region was quantified. This also allowed a determination of the individual initiation temperatures, which were analyzed and discussed whilst also taking into account the increase in local strain rate at the origin of cleavage fracture. Finally, fractographic examinations also revealed the relevance of local crack arrest (crack stop) which was quantified, and also linked to the mentioned experimental discrepancies regarding the Master Curve concept.

In the 1970’s and early 80’s there was a reevaluation of the role of inservice inspection programs. Inservice inspection programs as originally developed under the ASME Section XI Code requirements were based on the best information available at the time and helped establish the safety of the subject components. However, it was determined that the examination requirements were not efficient because examinations were being focused on many welds, components, and systems that are not as important as originally thought when the ASME Section III Classes 1, 2, and 3 categories were developed. It was determined that the appropriate locations were not being inspected and that the most effective types of examinations were not being performed. It was felt that a more optimal inspection approach was needed. This eventually led to the development of the risk-informed inservice inspection (RI-ISI) methodology. RI-ISI provides a structured and systematic framework for allocating inspection resources in a cost-effective manner while improving plant safety. It helps focus inspections where failure mechanisms are likely to be and where enhanced inspections are warranted. This paper examines the foundations for the current RI-ISI initiatives and how the RI-ISI methodology may be used in the future for current and next generation plants.

An examination of the main steam girth welds at Cholla Unit 2 was performed during a scheduled outage in Spring 1999. The examination revealed two distinct types of cracks. Nine girth welds had extensive arrays of small discontinuous ultrasonic examination indications in the weld deposit near the weld roots. Two girth welds had cracks connected to the outside surface of the pipe. Justifications for removing and replacing 11 of the 35 examined main steam girth welds are presented in this paper. Nondestructive examinations revealed small discontinuous indications near the root of several welds and throughout the weld deposit. In the most severe cases, these weld metal indications extended all the way around the circumference of the pipe. A metallurgical evaluation of both shop and field welds determined that the indications were arrays of small solidification cracks, typically 1/16-inch high by 1/32-inch long. The solidification cracks were attributed to wide weave beads in combination with low carbon content consumables. There was also a concern that those weld deposits with very low carbon (less than 0.05 weight percent) may have significantly shorter creep lives. In addition to the fabrication-induced solidification cracks, two girth welds were identified with service-induced creep cracks. The first of these was detected during ultrasonic and fluorescent magnetic particle examinations of selected welds. The second was detected visually in an auxiliary steam piping weld connection that was identified as a high priority weld resulting from a life consumption evaluation of the piping system.

Probabilistic fracture mechanics studies have addressed reactor pressure vessels that have high levels of material embrittlement. These calculations have used flaw size and density distributions determined from precise and optimized laboratory measurements made and validated with destructive methods as well as from physical models and expert elicitation. The experimental data were obtained from reactor vessel material samples removed from cancelled plants (Shoreham and the Pressure Vessel Research Users Facility (PVRUF)). Consequently, utilities may need to compare the numbers and sizes of reactor pressure vessel flaws identified by the plant’s inservice inspection program to the numbers and sizes of flaws assumed in prior failure probability calculations. This paper describes a method to determine whether the flaws in a particular reactor pressure vessel are consistent with the assumptions regarding the number and sizes of flaws used in other analyses. The approach recognizes that ASME Code Section XI examinations suffer from limitations in terms of sizing errors for very small flaws. Direct comparisons of a vessel specific flaw distribution with other documented flaw distributions would lead to pessimistic conclusions. This paper provides a method for a valid comparison that accounts for flaw sizing errors present in ASME Code Section XI examinations.

Reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) in nuclear power plants are important components that prevent non-ductile fracture considering neutron irradiation embrittlement as aging degradation and several types of transients. An analysis code called PASCAL for assessing failure frequencies of RPVs based on probabilistic fracture mechanics has been developed by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency. In failure frequency analyses, flaw size distribution in RPVs is one of the most important parameters, and it is determined by considering possible flaws generated during fabrication and the flaw-detection capabilities of nondestructive examinations (NDEs). Flaw-detection capabilities of NDEs are represented as probability of detection (POD) curves related to flaw sizes. In this study, the effects of NDEs on failure frequencies of RPVs are evaluated using PASCAL considering simplified POD curves in terms of minimum detectable flaw size, the smallest probability of non-detection (PND), and flaw size where POD value reaches the smallest PND.

The flow in the blade tip vicinity of the transonic first stage of a multi-stage axial flow compressor with variable inlet guide vane (IGV) and casing treatment (CT) above the rotor is investigated experimentally and numerically with focus on the effects of the CT on flow structures and compressor performance. For the experimental part of this study, conventional performance instrumentation is used to estimate the operating condition of the compressor. Radial distributions of total temperature and total pressure are taken at the leading edges of the stators for comparison with simulations as well as for adjusting the operating conditions of the compressor. The velocity field in the rear part of the first-rotor is determined with Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) at 90% and 96% radial height using two periscope light sheet probes. The employed PIV setup allows a spatial resolution of 0.7 mm × 0.7mm and thus a similar resolution as the spatial discretization in the simulation. For the numerical part of the study, time-accurate simulations are conducted for the same operating conditions as during experiments. Additional simulations of the same configuration with smooth casing are conducted in order to estimate the effect of the CT on the flow. The examination of PIV measurements and corresponding simulations exposes complex vortical structures originating from the interaction of the rotor bow shock with the IGV trailing edge, CT, IGV wake and the tip leakage vortex. The associated induced velocities together with the general passage flow form a complex flow field with significantly altered blockage compared to a common flow field in the tip vicinity. Position and trajectory of the tip leakage vortex are deduced from interactions between tip leakage vortex and IGV wake / CT. The detailed comparison of the tip region of simulations with and without CT shows that the CT influences pressure rise and flow parameters in a wide radial range due to a radial redistribution of the flow. Correspondingly, a rotor with CT can achieve an increased total pressure rise compared to a rotor with smooth casing, with only minor effects on the efficiency.

Nuclear power plants and many other industries are required to periodically inspect their buried piping to determine its fitness-for-continued service (FFS). The FFS process requires that both the general corrosion rate and the rate of maximum penetration for localized corrosion (e.g., pitting) be estimated so that the remaining lifetime and/or time until the next inspection can be determined. Revision 1 to ASME Code Case N-806, “Evaluation of Metal Loss in Class 2 and 3 Metallic Piping Buried in a Back-Filled Trench” [1] provides 4 options for estimating the corrosion rates: a. Wall thickness measurements from the current examination and from one or more previous examinations of the same metal loss region. b. Repeat measurements at two or more times from another location that has a predicted metal loss rate greater than or equal to the rate of the metal loss region under evaluation. c. Repeat measurements using corrosion coupons, linear polarization probes, or electrical resistance probes d. Generic historical data Each of these methods has its uses and limitations, and it is generally preferable to consider results from 2 or more of the methods. This paper examines historical data gathered by the National Bureau of Standards (NBS, renamed in 1988 as the National Institute of Standards & Technology - NIST) at ∼ 70 locations around the US in the 1930s – 1950s. Maximum penetration and weight loss (general corrosion) data from each site were placed in one of four soil texture groups for both carbon steel and cast iron. A regression analysis was performed to determine the median rates and 80% and 95% probabilistic values. It was found that results within each soil texture group were relatively similar and that the corrosion rates in the first 3 years after burial tended to be much higher than rates in years 5–18. The coefficients of determination were determined to quantify differences within each soil texture group. It is proposed that the steady state rates provided herein are an option to be used as the Historical Rates for FFS evaluations as described in [1].

Abstract: There is a list of occupational diseases associated with risk factors including chemical ones at Russian Federation determined by Ministry of Health of Russian Federation Order №417н of 27.04.2012. In order to early diagnostics and to prevent morbidity increase of occupational diseases, associated with chemical factors it is required to perform preliminary and periodic medical examinations of employees whose work is associated with exposure to harmful and(or) hazardous risk factors, including chemical ones, determined by Ministry of Health of Russian Federation Order №29н of 28.01.2021. List of chemical factors given in the appendix of actual Order determined by cooperative Ministry of Labor and Social Protection and the Ministry of Health Order №998н/1420н of 31.12.2020. Due to comparison analysis of harmful and(or) hazardous risk chemical factors listed in Order №27н and Order №417н appendixes it was determined that there are a few factors approved as harmful and(or) hazardous chemical factors in Order №29н are not approved as ones in Order №417н, what means that diseases caused by these factors cannot be approved as occupational diseases. As a result of detected discrepancy it is proposed to supplement the list of occupational diseases associated with the impact of chemical factors.

It is commonly known that vibrations and acoustic oscillations can cause both negative and positive influence on living organisms. The most harmful effect is caused by the tone acoustic oscillations when the tone frequency coincides with the resonance frequency of the whole body or individual organs. Hence, it is possible to make a conclusion that there are prerequisites for creation acoustic method having harmful or even mortal effect on the Colorado beetle organism. The subjects of the experiment were 8 beetles with the mass of 100 – 200mg. The frequency of the oscillation effect was 500–2500Hz. Examinations of the beetle after 6 hours showed that the biological death did take place. The repeated examination of the beetles after 24 hours showed the biological death of all the beetles exposed to acoustic influence. Using the described experiment, the resonance frequency for the beetle’s body was determined. So, it is possible to eliminate the Colorado beetle by exposing to vibration and acoustic oscillation. It is necessary to know the data relating to the mass of a beetle and its stiffness. Also, a question about the frequency band of the exposure arises. The resonance frequency of the body as a viscoelastic system is determined. The authors carry out experiments and determinate the mass and the stiffness of the Colorado beetle body. On the basis of the data of the outer inspection the biological death is registered for the beetle of the mass 100mg after the influence of the 1500Hz frequency vibration noise level was 120dB. On the basis of these data the stiffness of the Colorado beetle body is estimated as 8,860 N/m.

Exploration under glacial sediment cover is a necessary part of modern mineral exploration in Canada. Traditional indicator methods use visual examination to identify mineral grains in the 250 to 2000 µm fraction of till heavy-mineral concentrates (HMC). This study tests automated mineralogical methods using scanning electron microscopy to identify indicator minerals in the fine (&amp;lt;250 µm) HMC fraction of till. Automated mineralogy of polished grains from the fine HMC enables rapid data collection (10 000-300 000 grains/sample). Samples collected near two deposits were used to test this method: four from the upper-amphibolite facies Izok Lake volcanogenic massive-sulfide deposit, Nunavut, and five from the Sisson granite-hosted W-Mo deposit, New Brunswick. The less than 250 µm HMC fraction of till samples collected down ice of each deposit contain ore and alteration minerals typical of their deposit type. Sulfide minerals occur mainly as inclusions in oxidation-resistant minerals, including minerals previously identified in each deposit's metamorphic alteration halo, and are found to occur farther down ice than the grains identified visually in the greater than 250 µm HMC fraction. This project's workflow expands the detectable footprint for certain indicator minerals and enhances the information that can be collected from till samples.

This is one of the first studies in Sweden testing the notion of racial color-blindness empirically in a Swedish context, by asking a sample of Swedish participants to assign race to images of faces with different phenotypes, rate how ‘Swedish’ the faces are perceived (referred to the degree of ‘Swedishness’) and identify the skin color of the faces (through the NIS skincolor scale). We also use eye-tracking to explore whether participants look differently at faces of different racial groups. The results show that skin-color is a decisive factor in the racial ascription as Black, while skin color is not determinant of the degree of Swedishness. What determines the degree of Swedishness is the racial assignment itself, in other words, how individuals perceive and categorize phenotypes into different racial groups. We conclude that Swedes are not truly racially color-blind and race does indeed matter in Sweden.

This study was a diagnostic research, so the content was decomposed according to PIRO : P: Patients diagnosed with sudden death; I: C-reactive protein; R: There is no gold standard for sudden death, and the definition of sudden death varies from literature to literature. The World Health Organization defines sudden death: "Patients who are normally healthy or seemingly healthy die suddenly due to natural diseases in an unexpectedly short period of time." In our study, sudden death is determined by the history, symptoms, physical examination and electrocardiogram results assesed by doctor. If death events were collected from the patients’ medical records, deaths coded using the International Classification of Diseases-9th Revision, codes 410 to 414 for non-SCD and 798.1 for SCD; or the International Classification of Diseases-10th Revision, codes I20 to I25 for non-SCD and I46 for SCD. All deaths registered as sudden deaths were confirmed in interviews with the patient’s physician or family members again. O: sudden death.

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary is among the world's most successful and omnivorous fungal plant pathogens. Included in the more than 400 species of plants reported as hosts to this fungus are canola, alfalfa, soybean, sunflower, dry bean, and potato. The general inability to develop resistant germplasm with these economically important crops to this pathogen has focused attention on the need for a more detailed examination of the pathogenic determinants involved in disease development. This proposal involved experiments that examined the involvement of protein phosphorylation during morphogenesis (hyphal elongation and sclerotia formation) and pathogenesis (oxalic acid). Data obtained from our laboratories during the course of this project substantiates the fact that kinases and phosphatases are involved and important for these processes. A mechanistic understanding of the successful strategy(ies) used by S . sclerotiorum in infecting and proliferating in host plants and this linkage to fungal development will provide targets and/or novel approaches with which to design resistant crop plants including interference with fungal pathogenic development. The original objectives of this grant included: I. Clone the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) catalytic subunit gene from S.sclerotiorum and determine its role in fungal pathogenicity, OA production (OA) and/or morphogenesis (sclerotia formation). II. Clone and characterize the catalytic and regulatory subunits of the protein phosphatase PP2A holoenzyme complex and determine their role in fungal pathogenicity and/or morphogenesis as well as linkage with PKA-regulation of OA production and sclerotia formation. III. Clone and characterize the adenylate cyclase-encoding gene from S . sclerotiorum and detennine its relationship to the PKA/PP2A-regulated pathway. IV. Analyze the expression patterns of the above-mentioned genes and their products during pathogenesis and determine their linkage with infection and fungal growth.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of administering the Automated Multiple-Pass Method (AMPM), a widely used tool for collecting 24-hour dietary recalls, in participants’ homes by field interviewers. Design: The design included computer-assisted personal interviews led by either a nutritionist (standard) or field interviewer. Portion estimators tested were a set of three-dimensional food models (standard), a two-dimensional food model booklet, or a tablet with digital images rendered via augmented reality. Setting: Residences in central North Carolina. Participants: English-speaking adults. Pregnant women and individuals who were fasting were excluded. Results: Among 133 interviews, most took place in living rooms (52%) or kitchens (22%). Mean interview time was 40 minutes (range 13–90), with no difference by interviewer type or portion estimator, although timing for nutritionist-led interviews declined significantly over the study period. Forty-five percent of participants referenced items from their homes to facilitate recall and portion estimation. Data entry and post-interview coding was evaluated and determined to be consistent with requirements for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Values for the number of food items consumed, food groups, energy intake (average of 3,011 kcal for men and 2,105 kcal for women), and key nutrients were determined to be plausible and within reasonably expected ranges regardless of interviewer type or portion estimator used. Conclusions: AMPM dietary recall interviews conducted in the home are feasible and may be preferable to clinical administration because of comfort and the opportunity for participants to access home items for recall. AMPMs administered by field interviewers using the food model booklet produced credible nutrition data that was comparable to AMPMs administered by nutritionists. Training field interviewers in dietary recall and conducting home interviews may be sensible choices for nutrition studies when response rates and cost are concerns.

The objectives of this proposal were (1) to develop early age short-term restrict feeding protocols which eliminate the incidence of TD without compromising market weight performance and (2) monitor the components of the PTH/PTHrP cascade in conjunction with the development of the protocols in Objective 1. In this investigation it was established that changes in gene expression associated with TD occur as early as 13 days of age. This means that management strategies for the control of this disease must be established during the initial two weeks of rearing. In order to determine a focus for these management strategies, attempts were made to identify the metabolic defect responsible for tibial dyschondroplasia. Therefore, the parathyroid hormone/parathyrod related peptide (PTH/PTHrP) cascade of events was investigated. This emphasis was based on the fact that many nutritional factors that influence TD could be operating through this system. Secondly, the receptor for these peptides acts as the gatekeeper of chondrocyte differentiation. Examination of many aspects of this cascade led to the conclusion that TD is not the direct result of perturbation of this PTH/PTHrP receptor but is likely to develop from an interruption of a pathway downstream from this receptor.

The goal of this proposal was to identify proteins of BLV recognized by lymphocyte subpopulations and determine the contribution of these proteins to viral pathogenesis. Our hypothesis was that BLV pathogenesis is governed by the T-cell response and that the immune system likely plays an important role in controlling the utcome of infection. Our studies presented in ths final report demonstrate that T cell competency declines with advancing stages of infection. Dramatic differences were observed in lymphocyte proliferation to recombinant proteins encoded by BLV gag (p12, p15, and p24) and env (gp30 and gp15) genes in different disease stages. Because retroviruses are known to mutate frequently, examinatin of infected cattle from both Israel and the United States will likely detect variability in the immune response. This combined research approach provides the first opportunity to selectively address the importance of T-cell proliferation to BLV proteins and cytokines produced during different stages of BLV infection. Lack of this information regarding BLV infection has hindered understanding lympocyte regulation of BLV pathogenesis. We have developed the essential reagents necessary to determine the prominence of different lymphocyte subpopulations and cytokines produced during the different disease stages within the natural host. We found that type 1 cytokines (IL-2 and IFN-g) increased in PBMCs from animals in early disease, and decreasd in PBMCs from animals in late disease stages of BLV infection, while IL-10, increased with disease progression. Recently, a dichotomy between IL-12 and IL-10 has emerged in regards to progression of a variety of diseases. IL-12 activates type 1 cytokine production and has an antagonistic effect on type 2 cytokines. Here, using quantitative competitive PCR, we show that peripheral blood mononuclear cells from bovine leukemia virus infected animals in the alymphocytotic disease stage express increased amount of IL-12 p40 mRNA. In contrast, IL-12 p40 mRNA expression by PL animals was significantly decreased compared to normal and alymphocytotic animals. To examine the functions of these cytokines on BLV expression, BLV tax and pol mRNA expression and p24 protein production were quantified by competitive PCR, and by immunoblotting, respectively. IL-10 inhibited BLV tax and pol mRNA expression by BLV-infected PBMCs. In addition, we determined that macrophages secret soluble factor(s) that activate BLV expression, and that secretion of the soluble factor(s) could be inhibited by IL-10. In contrast, IL-2 increased BLV tax and pol mRNA, and p24 protein production. These findings suggest that macrophages have a key role in regulating BLV expression, and IL-10 produced by BLV-infected animals in late disease stages may serve to control BLV expression, while IL-2 in the early stage of disease may activate BLV expression. PGE2 is an important immune regulator produced only by macrophages, and is known to facilitate HIV replication. We hypothesized that PGE2 may regulate BLV expression. Here, we show that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA expression was decreased in PBMCs treated with IL-10, while IL-2 enhanced COX-2 mRNA expression. In contrast, addition of PGE2 stimulated BLV tax and pol mRNA expression. In addition, the specific COX-2 inhibitor, NS-398, inhibited BLV expression, while addition of PGE2 increased BLV tax expression regardless of NS-398. These findings suggest that macrophage derived cyclooxygenase -2 products, such as PGE2, may regulate virus expression and disease rogression in BLV infection, and that cytokines (IL-2 and IL-10) may regulate BLV expression through PGE2 production.

The overall goal was to identify survival factors that can improve pregnancy success following insemination or embryo transfer in lactating dairy cows exposed to heat stress. First, we demonstrated that oocytes are actually damaged by elevated temperature in the summer. Then we tested two thermoprotective molecules for their effect on oocyte damage caused by heat shock. One molecule, ceramide was not thermoprptective. Another, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF) reduced the effects of heat shock on oocyte apoptosis and oocyte cleavage when added during maturation. We also used lactating cows exposed to heat stress to determine whether bovine somatotropin (bST), which increases IGF1 levels in vivo, would improve fertility in summer. Cows treated with bST received a single injection at 3 days before insemination. Controls received no additional treatment. Treatment with bST did not significantly increase the proportion of inseminated cows diagnosed pregnant although it was numerically greater for the bST group (24.2% vs 17.8%, 124–132 cows per group). There was a tendency (p =0.10) for a smaller percent of control cows to have high plasma progesterone concentrations (≥ 1 ng/ml) at Day 7 after insemination than for bST-treated cows (72.6 vs 81.1%). When only cows that were successfully synchronized were considered, the magnitude of the absolute difference in the percentage of inseminated cows that were diagnosed pregnant between bST and control cows was reduced (24.8 vs 22.4% pregnant for bST and control). Results failed to indicate a beneficial effect of bST treatment on fertility of lactating dairy cows. In another experiment, we found a tendency for addition of IGF1 to embryo culture medium to improve embryonic survival after embryo transfer when the experiment was done during heat stress but not when the experiment was done in the absence of heat stress. Another molecule tested, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF; also called colony-stimulating factor-2), improved embryonic survival in the absence of heat stress. We also examined whether heat shock affects the sperm cell. There was no effect of heat shock on sperm apoptosis (programmed cell death) or on sperm fertilizing ability. Therefore, effects of heat shock on sperm function after ejaculation if minimal. However, there were seasonal changes in sperm characteristics that indicates that some of the decrease in dairy cow fertility during the summer in Israel is due to using semen of inferior quality. Semen was collected from five representative bulls throughout the summer (August and September) and winter (December and January). There were seasonal differences in ion concentration in seminal plasma and in the mRNA for various ion channels known to be involved in acrosome reactions. Furthermore, the proportion of sperm cells with damaged acrosomes was higher in post-thaw semen collected in the summer than in its counterpart collected in winter (54.2 ± 3.5% vs. 51.4 ± 1.9%, respectively; P < 0.08Further examination is required to determine whether such alterations are involved in the low summer fertility of dairy cows.

The starting point of the research project was the hypothesis that the "principle of proportionality", which is fundamental to law, is related to the "economic principle". The resulting methodological similarities were intended to enable a cross-disciplinary bridge to be built, which would allow the findings of economic analysis to be made fruitful for legal issues. This was practically tested in three study areas in order to be able to better classify the performance of the analytical tools. The foundations for interdisciplinary bridge building are found in the rational-choice paradigm. In both disciplines, this paradigm calls for an examination of the relationship between the purpose-means-relations: among the design options under consideration, the one must be selected that is expected to be as (freedom- or resource-) sparing as possible, in other words, the most "waste-free" solution to the control problem.The results of the economic analysis can thus be "translated" in such a way that, within the framework of "necessity", they support the search for control instruments that are equivalent to the objective but less disruptive. supports. The core of the positive economic analysis is the motivational situation of those actors whose behavior is to be influenced by a changed legal framework. In this context, the classical behavioral model of economics proved to be too limited. It therefore had to be developed further in line with the findings of research in institutional economics into homo oeconomicus institutionalis. This behavioral model takes into account not only the consequentialist, strictly situational utility orientation of the model person, but also other factors influencing behavior, including above all those that are institutionally mediated. If one takes the motivational situation of the actors as the starting point for policy-advising design recommendations, it becomes apparent that an understanding of governance dominated by imperative behavioral specifications leads to less favorable results, both in terms of the degree to which goals are achieved and in terms of the freedom-impairing effects, than a mixed-instrument approach oriented toward the model of "responsive regulation." According to this model, the law can no longer simply assume that those subject to the law will "obediently" execute the legal commands. It must ask itself what other factors determine behavior and under what boundary conditions changes can be expected in the direction of the desired behavior. For this reason, too, it must engage with the cognitive program of the behavioral sciences. This linkage opens up new perspectives for interdisciplinary research on the consequences of laws.
