Genotyping and Virulence Analysis of Drug Resistant Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates in Egypt

Klebsiella pneumoniae is a highly drug-resistant human pathogen responsible for a variety of serious infections. Integrons, mobile genetic elements capable of integrating antibiotic resistance genes, and the capsule are important virulence factors that increase bacteria resistance to phagocytosis and antimicrobial agents. Molecular typing is an effective tool for identifying the likely etiology of infection. This study aimed to investigate the presence of the rmpA, wcaG, intI1, intI2, and intI3 virulence genes in clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates, and explore their molecular genotypes by using eRiC-PCR. Fifty Klebsiella pneumoniae strains were isolated from various specimens. Antimicrobial resistance was evaluated by using the disc diffusion method. Five genes were amplified by conventional PCR. Genotyping was performed molecularly by using ERIC-PCR. Forty-seven isolates were multi-drug resistant. in all, 18%, 36%, and 98% of the 50 K. pneumoniae isolates were positive for rmpA, wcaG, and intI1 genes, respectively; however, all isolates were negative for intI2 and intI3 genes. Dendogram analysis of the ERIC-PCR results showed 49 distinct patterns, arranged in five clusters. Our study demonstrates high levels of antibiotic resistance and virulence among clinical isolates of K. pneumoniae. Such resistance reflects a growing problem for public health. Further, the presence of integrons increases the horizontal spread of antibiotic resistance and virulence genes among bacterial isolates. The ERIC-PCR technique is an effective method for molecular typing and epidemiological studies of hospital-acquired infections.
Crisis Intervention Team Training in a Correctional Setting: Examining Compliance, Mental Health Referrals, and Use of Force

The Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) model was developed as a specialized police-based program in which officers are trained to safely interact with individuals with mental illnesses. In 2011, the Minnesota Department of Corrections adapted this program for corrections. This study compares prison incidents involving CIT officers to a comparison sample of non-CIT incidents on a number of outcomes, including gaining compliance from people in custody (either immediately or as an incident unfolds), making mental health referrals, and using force against people in custody. We conducted a content analysis of reports describing 500 incidents in an all-male, maximum security prison and estimated multivariate binary logistic models to control for characteristics of situations, incarcerated people, and employees. The findings provide some support for implementing CIT training in a correctional setting, but some less encouraging results show that improvements to the program are still needed.
Stochastic Lagrangian dynamics of vorticity. Part 1. General theory for viscous, incompressible fluids

Abstract Prior mathematical work of Constantin & Iyer (Commun. Pure Appl. Maths, vol. 61, 2008, pp. 330–345; Ann. Appl. Probab., vol. 21, 2011, pp. 1466–1492) has shown that incompressible Navier–Stokes solutions possess infinitely many stochastic Lagrangian conservation laws for vorticity, backward in time, which generalize the invariants of Cauchy (Sciences mathématiques et physique, vol. I, 1815, pp. 33–73) for smooth Euler solutions. We reformulate this theory for the case of wall-bounded flows by appealing to the Kuz'min (Phys. Lett. A, vol. 96, 1983, pp. 88–90)–Oseledets (Russ. Math. Surv., vol. 44, 1989, p. 210) representation of Navier–Stokes dynamics, in terms of the vortex-momentum density associated to a continuous distribution of infinitesimal vortex rings. The Constantin–Iyer theory provides an exact representation for vorticity at any interior point as an average over stochastic vorticity contributions transported from the wall. We point out relations of this Lagrangian formulation with the Eulerian theory of Lighthill (Boundary layer theory. In Laminar Boundary Layers (ed. L. Rosenhead), 1963, pp. 46–113)–Morton (Geophys. Astrophys. Fluid Dyn., vol. 28, 1984, pp. 277–308) for vorticity generation at solid walls, and also with a statistical result of Taylor (Proc. R. Soc. Lond. A, vol. 135, 1932, pp. 685–702)–Huggins (J. Low Temp. Phys., vol. 96, 1994, pp. 317–346), which connects dissipative drag with organized cross-stream motion of vorticity and which is closely analogous to the ‘Josephson–Anderson relation’ for quantum superfluids. We elaborate a Monte Carlo numerical Lagrangian scheme to calculate the stochastic Cauchy invariants and their statistics, given the Eulerian space–time velocity field. The method is validated using an online database of a turbulent channel-flow simulation (Graham et al., J. Turbul., vol. 17, 2016, pp. 181–215), where conservation of the mean Cauchy invariant is verified for two selected buffer-layer events corresponding to an ‘ejection’ and a ‘sweep’. The variances of the stochastic Cauchy invariants grow exponentially backward in time, however, revealing Lagrangian chaos of the stochastic trajectories undergoing both fluid advection and viscous diffusion.
Structural modelling of riparian tree diversity and ecosystem degradation roles in determining the water quality of springs and its drains in East Java

This research was aimed to study the role of riparian trees and ecosystem degradation to determine water quality in some springs and its channels located in East Java. The research was held in some selected degraded springs in Kediri, Pasuruan, Malang, and the Meru Betiri National Park located in Jember, as a reference site. In each spring, three sites including upstream, midstream, and downstream were observed. The field observation consisted of several steps such as land use quality at river land side, geographical conditions, riparian tree diversity and water quality, quality of springs physical condition, and its channels. Riparian trees role to determine the water quality was analyzed by applying Partial Least Square analysis with Smart PLS software. Structural modelling of the interaction of riparian trees diversity with some determining variables of water quality revealed that there was an important role of riparian diversity quality towards water quality. The value of predictive relevance (Q 2 ) was 99.11% and the model could be accepted. The riparian trees diversity and geographical conditions directly influenced the water colour and its turbidity. The quality of land use at several water bodies did not directly influence the water colour and its turbidity. Therefore, water colour and its transparency at channels were directly influenced by riparian width, ecosystem degradation shown by naturalness index, hemeroby index, environmental services index, and the slope of landside.
Sign surveys for estimating trend of a remnant brown bear Ursus arctos population in northern spain

Brown bears Ursus arctos in Spain's Cantabrian Mountains are continuing to decline in numbers despite their protected status. Recovery plans for this population stress the need for monitoring of occupied habitat using non-intrusive methods. A population monitoring program to estimate bear abundance indices by quantifying tracks and scats (sign surveys) along a network of survey routes was designed. Each route was divided into consecutive 1,6-km segments, which comprised the basic sampling unit, and were assumed to provide independent observations. During a 3-year pilot study surveys were run twice per year, totaling 70 routes, including 950 segments, and covering over 1,500 km annually. Averages of 0.06 sign per segment were observed; only 4% of the segments had sign. It is concluded that the present sampling scheme does not provide enough statistical power to accurately detect significant declines in population level. The difficulties of monitoring trends of low density populations using surveys are recognized. However, by increasing the sampling intensity, more reliable information and greater precision of the population trend estimate should be obtainable. Thus, a future monitoring strategy should be based on increasing sampling intensity and closely monitoring bear distribution and occurrence.
Overcoming Drug Resistant Prostate Cancer with APE1/Ref 1 Blockade

Abstract : We have identified a new target that might explain how advanced prostate cancer cells avoid being killed by chemotherapy: Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease/redox-factor 1, or simply, Ref-1, for short. In this report, we provide evidence that APE1/Ref-1 is induced in prostate cancer cells and in human prostate cancer. This expression correlates to inflammation and to survivin signaling in human prostate cancer specimens. Genetic knockdown of APE1/Ref-1 disrupts prostate cancer cell growth and survival in cell culture. In addition, inhibition of the redox function selectively of Ref-1 results in cell growth inhibition, with this therapy preferentially inhibiting prostate cancer cell growth above that in non-cancerous cells. Specific blockade of Ref-1 redox activity in tumors is a novel concept in tumor therapy. If we are successful, we will have defined a critical therapeutic target for drug-resistant prostate cancers, and logically clinical trials would follow targeting this pathway.
Time lags in functional response to management regimes – evidence from a 26‐year field experiment in wet meadows

Questions (i) How does functional composition and diversity respond to different timings and frequencies of mowing or fallow treatment? (ii) To which species assembly and related ecosystem processes do these developments correspond? (iii) What is the time course of these developments, and do they reach a stable state? Location North-western Germany Methods In 1987, a field experiment in nine wet meadow sites formerly exploited as fertilized meadows or pastures was established with four management treatments: (i) mowing twice a year in June/July and in September, (ii) mowing once a year in June/July, (iii) mowing once a year in September, and (iv) leaving fallow except shrub removal. Vegetation was recorded at least every second year and the functional composition (community weighted means) and diversity (Rao's quadratic entropy) were analysed in the course of the experiment. We selected eight plant functional traits (Canopy height, SLA, LDMC, Seed mass, Shoot cyclicity, Clonal Index, Onset of flowering, Leaf distribution) capturing the main plant life strategies. Results Temporal changes, fluctuations and divergences between treatments could be observed in both functional composition and diversity. In particular, the vegetation of the fallow treatment showed strong competition for light and a higher investment into internal nutrient cycling. Over time, all treatments respond towards more stressful conditions due to generally less intensive management compared with the former management and respective nutrient depletion, leading to a more nutrient retentive and patch holding strategy and little investment into competitive seedlings. High competition and loose abiotic filters in the fallow treatment led to a niche separation in foliar traits. Mowing on the other hand enforced a divergence of reproduction mechanisms. Conclusion We detected long-term fluctuations and ongoing changes in functional composition and diversity even after 26 years. Especially early succession was characterized by a transient loss of functional diversity, caused by strong time lags in immigration and extinction of species. Our findings stress the importance of long-term experimental studies to avoid precarious misinterpretations. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
Gene expression of bone morphogenetic proteins and jaw malformation in golden pompano Trachinotus ovatus larvae in different feeding regimes

ABSTRACT To explore the molecular response of fish larvae to nutritional manipulation, the partial sequences of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP1, BMP2, BMP4, BMP5, and BMP10) genes were obtained, and their expressions were quantified on golden pompano Trachinotus ovatus at 28 days post hatching. Artemia nauplii were separately enriched with Nannochloropsis and Algamac 3080, and non-enriched Artemia nauplii were used as a control feed. The lowest jaw deformity rate occurred in fish fed Algamac 3080 enriched Artemia nauplii. The expression level of BMP4 of fish fed Algamac 3080 enriched Artemia nauplii was significantly lower than those fed Nannochloropsis enriched and non-enriched Artemia nauplii. The lowest expression level of BMP10 was found in fish fed non-enriched Artemia nauplii, and the highest expression of BMP10 was observed in fish fed Algamac 3080 enriched Artemia nauplii. Correlation analysis indicates that nutritional manipulations can significantly affect the expression level of BMP4 and BMP10 genes. The concentration of dietary docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) can significantly affect the expression level of BMP10. This study indicates that the use of Algamac 3080 enriched Artemia nauplii results in fast fish growth and low jaw deformity, and BMP4 and BMP10 gene expressions were closely related to jaw deformity in golden pompano larvae.
A pathological complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and immunotherapy in a non-small cell lung cancer patient

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have lower overall survival. Studies have shown that some patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC develop disease progression after initial chemoradiotherapy, and new treatment is needed to improve the prognosis of these patients. The rapid development of therapy has greatly changed and continued to renew the treatment strategy of advanced NSCLC. However, the clinical treatment for patients with the wild-type gene remains problematic, and chemotherapy with platinum are not yet considered satisfactory. Herein, we are reporting a case of a patient with wild-type gene mutation locally advanced NSCLC who was treated with neoadjuvant therapy by using combined targeted anti-PD-1 immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The percentage of tumor cells with membranous PD-L1 staining (tumor proportion score) was 90% or greater. After receiving all three cycles of treatment, the patient underwent video-assisted right upper lung lobectomy and wedge resection plus radical mediastinal lymph node dissection. Pathological section samples showed a pathological complete response. This experience has led us to believe that the subgroup of patients with unresectable advanced NSCLC may benefit from this strategy and may have an opportunity for radical surgery.
ORGANIZATIONAL JUSTICE AS A FACTOR OF JOB SATISFACTION-QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS

Organizational justice reflects the perception of employees whether they have been treated fairly in their organizations. Upon that perception, many work-related outcomes may emerge. One of them is satisfaction with the job they perform. This paper presents the results of the study in which the relationship between the employees` perception of organizational justice and job satisfaction is examined. The data was collected through the distribution of the questionnaires among the employees working in 17 big enterprises, mostly in the south-east part of the Republic of Serbia. The sample size included 167 employees. The study findings show that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between all dimensions of organizational justice and job satisfaction. The findings also show that distributive and interactional justice have statistically significant positive influence on job satisfaction, but that is not the case with procedural justice. Based on the results, some measures for human resource management practices improvement have been proposed.
Tight coupling of fungal community composition with soil quality in a Chinese fir plantation chronosequence

Predicting changes in carbon and nutrient cycles in plantations requires a mechanistic understanding of the effects of stand age on soil quality and microbial communities. Here, we evaluated soil quality by using an integrated soil quality index (SQI) and traced the parallel shifts in fungal community composition using high‐throughput sequencing in a chronosequence of Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata) plantations (stand age of 3, 16, 25, 32, >80 years). Soil properties showed pronounced changes with stand age in the topsoil. Soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN) and available phosphorus (AP) were 2.1, 1.9 and 2.2 times higher, respectively, in the oldest stands than in the youngest stands. SQI of the top 5 cm increased logarithmically with stand age. Mycorrhizal fungi initially increased in younger stands, but then they were gradually replaced by saprotrophs in older stands due to larger litterfall. Strong positive correlations between saprotrophic fungi and key soil quality indicators, such as TN, AP and NH4+, confirmed that abundance of decomposers is tightly linked with higher soil quality. Mycorrhizal orders Thelephorales, Sebacinales and Russulales increased in abundance and raised the activity of acid phosphatase to mobilise limiting phosphorus from organic matter. Consequently, mycorrhizal fungi are especially relevant in younger stands to acquire nutrients to sustain tree productivity. In developed stands, however, saprotrophic fungi are crucial in recycling nutrients from the litter. Collectively, the increase of topsoil quality during the life cycle of Chinese fir plantations is closely linked with the observed transition of fungal communities from mycorrhizae to saprotrophs.
Maliwawa figures—a previously undescribed Arnhem Land rock art style

Abstract In this paper, a previously undescribed rock art style consisting of large human figures and animals with stroke-line infill is introduced. These depictions have been named Maliwawa Figures. They are primarily found in northwest Arnhem Land and to date have been recorded at 87 sites from Awunbarna (Mount Borradaile area) to the Namunidjbuk clan state of the Wellington Range. There are solitary figures and others arranged in compositions or scenes. We describe the features of this style, its distribution, subject matter and probable age. The results of a detailed analysis of all sites are discussed and a new, refined Arnhem Land rock art chronology is presented. It is concluded that Maliwawa Figures are most likely to date between 6,000 to 9,400 years of age and to be contemporaneous with Northern Running Figures and Yam Figures found at sites to the south.
Culturally Driven Monitoring: The Importance of Traditional Ecological Knowledge Indicators in Understanding Aquatic Ecosystem Change in the Northwest Territories’ Dehcho Region

There is growing concern about the sustainability of freshwater ecosystems in northern Canada that are under significant stress from climate change, resource development, and hydroelectric development, among others. Community-based monitoring (CBM) based on traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) has the potential to contribute to understanding impacts on the environment and community livelihoods. This paper shares insights about culturally driven monitoring, through collaborative research with Katl’odeeche First Nation (KFN) in the Northwest Territories. This research was initiated in 2018 to improve understanding of the changes occurring in the Hay River and Buffalo River sub-basins, which extend primarily across the Alberta and Northwest Territories borders. Drawing on 15 semi-structured interviews conducted with KFN elders, fish harvesters, and youth, this paper illustrates the kinds of social–ecological indicators used by KFN to track changes in the health of aquatic systems as well as the fishing livelihoods of local people. Utilizing indicators, fishers observe declines in fish health, water quality, water quantity, and ice thickness in their lifetime. Community members perceive these changes to be a result of the cumulative effects of environmental stressors. The indicators as well as trends and patterns being observed and experienced can contribute to both social learning in the community as well as the governance of the larger Mackenzie River Basin.
Distributing the Modal Load: the Oral Presentation Ensemble and Professional Identity Formation

Scenario Learning and Pedagogy (SLP) involves immersing an entire university professional communication course within a selected sustainable business practice scenario. This article focuses on the draft and final oral presentations of two teams who chose recycling and sustainable building practices as their institutional “workplace” scenarios respectively. A semiotic and metafunctional approach combined with authorial identity markers produced a sound theoretical frame and methodology against which a multi-layered analysis and comparison of their presentations could be instantiated. Video recordings of both their rehearsal and final presentations allowed for fine-grained scrutiny of selected video clips to focus a lens on various verbal and non-verbal elements of communication such as speech, vocal intonation and projection, dress (appearance), posture, gesture and movement, eye contact and gaze behaviour, and facial expression. The emergence of confidence as a proxy of growing professional identity to a greater or lesser extent could be determined within each team. How each team member leveraged their linguistic and cultural backgrounds, age, gender and scenario knowledge provided individual as well as collective insights into the team dynamic. Although some team members fared better than others, their collective support worked to suppress weaknesses and disjunctures to the benefit of the team effort.
Geotechnical uncertainties and reliability-based assessments of dykes

This thesis utilises the random finite element method (RFEM) to provide practical guidance and tools for geotechnical engineers to account for the influence of soil spatial variability. This has involved: (a) practical insight and guidance on the choice of characteristic soil property values and scales of fluctuation; (b) a robust approach to reliability assessment and design that obviates the need for explicit calculation of characteristic values; and (c) the benchmarking and improving of simpler analysis tools.
