To date, there has been no epidemiological data on real tennis injuries. The primary aim of this retrospective study is to record the incidence and document any trends in real tennis musculoskeletal injuries, so as to improve injury awareness of common and possibly preventable injuries. Methods: A surveillance questionnaire e-mailed to 2,036 Tennis & Rackets Association members to retrospectively capture injuries sustained by amateur and professional real tennis players over their playing careers. Results: A total of 485 (438 males and 47 females) questionnaires were fully completed over 4 weeks. A total of 662 musculoskeletal injuries were recorded with a mean of 1.4 injuries per player (range 0–7). The incidence of sustaining an acute real tennis musculoskeletal injury is 0.4/1000 hrs. The three main anatomical locations reported injured were elbow 15.6% (103/662), knee 11.6% (77/662), and face 10.0% (66/662). The most common structures reported injured were muscle 24% (161/661), tendon 23.4% (155/661), ligament 7.0% (46/661), soft tissue bruising 6.5% (43/661), and eye 6.2% (41/661). The majority of the upper limb injuries were gradual onset (64.7%, 143/221), and the lower limb injuries were sudden onset (72.0%, 188/261). Conclusion: This study uniquely provides valuable preliminary data on the incidence and patterns of musculoskeletal injuries in real tennis players. In addition, it highlights a number of reported eye injuries. The study is also a benchmark for future prospective studies on academy and professional real tennis players.
Comparison-between-greenwater-and-clearwater-hatchery-systems-during-the-masculinization-process-of-silver-tilapia-Oreochromis-noloticus-Perciformes-Cichlidae

The growth and survivorship of Silver Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was compared between greenwater systems (containing green algae) and clearwater systems (no algae) while feeding the androgen 17 alpha methyl testosterone. Water chemistry was monitored daily. Algal counts and species identification were done to estimate the composition and density of green algae. Fish length, wet mass, mortality and percentage masculinization were calculated. Compared to clearwater, fish raised in greenwater were significantly larger and heavier (F1, 575 = 1028.28: p<0.001 for length and F1, 575 = 566.48 for mass). In addition there was a significantly higher survivorship in the greenwater system (mean of 85.0% survival in greenwater and mean survival of 61.0% in clear water respectfully, χ 2 =67.18, p< 0.001). There were also significantly higher levels of nitrite and ammonia in the Clearwater tanks. Green water systems were found to be overall superior for producing masculinized male silver tilapia fingerlings, than clearwater systems although no significant difference was noted in percentage masculinized (98.8% green water, 97.7% clear water).
Effect of compensatory growth on production of carcasses to specification.

Compensatory growth is utilised in both Australian and New Zealand cattle production systems as an important means of optimising animal growth from a seasonal pattern of pasture availability. (Poppi and McLennan, 1996; Nicol and Kitessa, 1997). However, results from the present experiment, indicate that, during the compensation phase, animals may be less efficient at converting feed to liveweight gain (Muir et al., 1997). It was unclear whether the poor efficiency of feed utilisation was related to deleterious changes in carcass characteristics. The design of the experiment is outlined in Muir et al. (1997). Briefly, 28 Angus and 28 Simrnental steers were purchased as weaners and allocated to two groups containing 14 steers of each breed. Group 1 steers were transferred to a feedlot and adjusted to a concentrate diet of 70% grain and 30% pasture silage, offered ad libitum. Group 1 steers were slaughtered when growth had ceased (80 1 and 948 kg, respectively). Group 2 steers grazed together on pasture until the Angus and Simmental steers had achieved liveweights of 557 and 605 kg, respectively. They were then transferred to the feedlot, adjusted to and given the same ad libitum diet as Group 1. Group 2 steers were slaughtered when they reached the same estimated carcass weight as Group 1 steers. Although there was a clear breed effect, there were no significant differences in carcass weight between ad libitum and compensating steers (Table 1). Steers that had undergone compensatory growth were significantly leaner, as indicated by both subcutaneous fat depth and Japanese marbling scores at the 12th rib (Table 1). Combined weights of commercially important cuts (Topside and Silverside; Butterfield and May, 1966) were significantly heavier (P < 0.00 1) in compensating animals, indicating that growth path can affect the proportion of high value cuts in the carcass. Moreover, the variability associated with carcass weight and individual cut weights tended to be greater in animals that had undergone compensatory growth than in animals fed ad libitum (Table 1). There was also a trend for Simmental steers to be more variable than Angus steers (Table 1). Compensatory growth may result in leaner carcasses which benefits producers under the current grading systems but reduced marbling levels may also impact on future quality grades for Asian markets. Moreover, the present results suggest that compensatory growth may reduce the consistency of carcass quality, reducing returns for producers that supply to contract. Growth path also has significant implications for meat processors and exporters in terms of supply of carcasses and cuts to consumer specification.
Assessment of prevalence of protein energy malnutrition in under 5 year children in an urban slum of Mumbai, India and to study associated factors

Background: In urban slums, several socio-demographic factors contribute for the occurrence of protein energy malnutrition (PEM) in under-five year children, this study aims at Assessment of prevalence of protein energy malnutrition in under-5 year children in an urban slum of Mumbai and to study associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Urban Slum which is a field practice area of institition.Under-5 children were included in the study and information was gathered by interviewing mother/guardian and recording anthropometric measurement of the child. Data was analysed with SPSS v.16 with suitable tests. Result: Prevalence of PEM was found 56%, more per cent of PEM was found in 13-24 month age 64 (66.7%), 120 (54.1%) boys, 122 (55%) non-nuclear family dwellers, in 126 (56.8%) children whose mothers got married 2, 198(89.2%) children who were not given colostrum and 168 (75.7%) who were not given exclusive breast feeding, in 152(68.5%) children with incomplete immunisation, 122 (55%) children with more than 3 episodes of ARI, 142(64%) with >3 episodes of Diarrhoea. 86 (82.7%) children with PEM belonged to Class V, (B.G Prasad classification), statistically significant association of PEM was found with the factors age of child, mother’s education, birth order, immunisation status, mother’s age at marriage, exclusive breast feeding, history of acute respiratory infection (ARI) and diarrhoea, and socio-economic status. Conclusion: Study has found certain socio-demographic factors like age, gender and birth order of child, type of family, age of mother during marriage and her literacy level, giving colostrum, exclusive breast feeding, immunisation and frequency of ARI and diarrhoea associated with PEM.
Determinant of Infant and Child Mortality in Ethiopia

Child mortality reflects a country’s level of socio-economic development and quality of life. In this paper, the determinant factors of infant and child mortality in Ethiopia have been analyzed with a particular emphasis on assessing possible time-variations in the effects of covariates. The analysis was based on micro data from the 2011 Demographic and health Survey (2011EDHS). In general conclusions, the findings of this paper study demonstrate that different factors such as mother’s educational status, place of residence, birth order number of children, preceding birth intervals, household size/family size, source of drinking water, mother’s marital status, types of birth occurred, and breast feeding status have statistically significant impacts to determine infant and child death in Ethiopia.
Association of Autoimmune Thyroid Diseases and Thyroid Cancer

Objective: The relationship between thyroid autoimmunity and thyroid cancer remains controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of thyroid carcinoma in patients with Basedow-Graves (BG) and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis (HT) patients, who subsequently underwent surgical treatment. Design and Methods: From 2005 to 2014, 1668 patients underwent thyroid surgery at our institution. Of these, 138 patients were diagnosed with HT (126 women, 12 men) and 78 patients were diagnosed with BG (61 women, 17 men). Results: Thyroid cancer was in 23.1 percent of BG patients, 52.2 percent of HT patients, and 38.7 percent of Nodular Goiter (NG) patients. When BG patients were compared with HT patients, it was determined that thyroid cancer was more often seen (p<0.001) in HT patients. When BG patients were compared with NG patients, it was determined that thyroid cancer was less seen (p=0.008) in BG patients. When HT patients were compared with NG patients, thyroid cancer was more often seen (p=0.003) in HT patients. When HT patients (average age: 46.53) were compared with NG patients (average age: 51.02), it was determined that thyroid cancer was seen in the earlier age (p=0.019) in HT patients. It was found that the frequency of papillary microcarcinoma in patients with BG was higher (p=0.004) in comparison with HT and NG patients. It was seen that tumor size in BG patients was smaller in comparison with HT and NG patients. Conclusion: These data demonstrate that HT is associated with an increased risk of developing Thyroid Cancer (TC).
Sustainable and smart materials in Geotechnical constructions

Innovation in technology requires judicious consideration of cost saving, disaster mitigation capability and its environmental impact. This paper describes some of the environmentally friendly cost effective technologies born in Japan in the last two decades. The materials used in those techniques are scrap tires and tire derived geomaterials. Few ground improving/stabilizing techniques using tire derived products for geotechnical applications in Japan are introduced here. Descriptions and validations through model testing, field testing as well as case study applications of some of those techniques are described.
The Role of Nursing in Hospital-Based Clinical Research

esearch is fundamental to the development and practice of medicine. Clinical trials are conducted to evaluate the outcome of an intervention and to obtain information that may ultimately affect nursing and medical practice. Many clinical trials are currently focused on investigational agents (medications that have not yet been approved by the Food and Drug Administration) to determine their safety and efficacy.

Oral Health Related Quality of Life in Adolescent Students Living in Rural Areas Objective: To assess the impact of oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL) in adolescent students living in rural areas in Guanajuato, Mexico Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted including adolescent students aged 15-20 years. Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-14) was applied and clinical examination performed to evaluate caries experience thorough DMFT index and Thylstrup Fejerskov Index (TFI) was used to assess the presence and severity of dental fluorosis. Clinical variables were dichotomized and to identify association between OHIP-14 scores these variables.
OUTCOME FOLLOWING OPEN AND LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has rapidly become established as the popular alternative to open cholecystectomy, but it should have a safety profile similar to or better than that of open procedure. The aim of this study was to compare conventional cholecystectomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy with respect to duration of procedure, complications, postoperative pain, analgesic requirement, antibiotic requirement, resumption of normal diet and period of hospital stay.50 patients with symptoms and signs of acute acalculous/calculous cholecystitis, selected randomly, were included in this study. Clinical profile, investigations, treatments, outcomes were analyzed. The highest age incidence was in the 5 th decade, more common in females. Pain in the RUQ of abdomen was the most common symptom. Ultrasonography showed gallbladder stones in almost all patients. The duration of LC (120min) was more than for OC (90min). The conversion rate of LC to OC was 8%. Post- operative morbidity was more in case of LC. The antibiotic and analgesic requirements were less in LC group. The resumption of normal diet was 2 days earlier in LC compared to OC group, and the hospital stay was 4 days less in LC group. The result showed the incidence of acute calculous/acalculous cholecystitis more in females, 5 th decade, presented more commonly with pain abdomen. Ultrasonography was the most common investigation. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy reduces the number of antibiotic and analgesic requirement, hospital days, pain disability, wound infection, and with better cosmesis, except for the prolonged operative time, which can be minimized in due course of time as the learning curve progresses.
Chemical cues and how ants use them for recognizing colony members

Social parasites exploit resources of other social species, to the detriment of their host. In order to enter and integrate in a host colony, social parasites must avoid being detected as a non-nestmate. The parasites, therefore, use one or a combination of chemical strategies: 1) producing recognition cues that match host’s (mimicry), 2) acquiring recognition cues from the hosts or its nest (camouflage), 3) not producing recognition cues (insignificance), and/or 4) using substances for confusing, suppressing or appeasing the host (weaponry). In this study, we investigate the integration strategy of Megalomyrmex symmetochus ants into colonies of the fungus-growing ant Sericomyrmex amabilis. We compared the chemical odour profiles of parasitized and non-parasitized S. amabilis colonies with the profiles of the parasites. Additionally, we conducted behavioural assays, where we introduced a single ant, being either a nestmate, a conspecific nonnestmate, or a parasite into an arena with five S. amabilis workers and scored the behaviour of the latter ants. The chemical analysis revealed that the social parasites have distinct odour profiles and share only one hydrocarbon with its host, have a low overall abundance of cuticular hydrocarbons, and have high concentrations of venom-derived alkaloids. In behavioural experiments, we found that workers of non-parasitized colonies fight against parasite intruders, whereas workers of parasitized colonies treat introduced parasites (from their own and from another parasitized colony) similar to their conspecific nestmates. All workers (parasitized or not) show more submissive behaviour towards parasitized workers and parasites than towards non-parasitized workers. The chemical analysis of odour profiles suggests that the parasites use a chemical insignificance strategy. 10 Chemical integration into a host colony Furthermore, the chemical and behavioural data suggest that the parasites use weaponry to maintain an amiable association with their host ants. We discuss the biological significance of the lack of aggression in S. amabilis workers from parasitized colonies.ological significance of the lack of aggression in S. amabilis workers from parasitized colonies.
Asymptomatic myocardial involvement in acute dengue virus infection in a cohort of adult Sri Lankans admitted to a tertiary referral centre

Viral myocarditis is a well-recognised complication of many viruses leading to subsequent cardiomyopathies (dilated type). There are limited data available with respect to dengue virus involvement, 1,2 an infection which can be asymptomatic and can lead to undifferentiated viral fever syndrome, dengue fever, dengue haemorrhagic syndrome or dengue shock syndrome. Dengue has probably been endemic in Sri Lanka for a long time 3 although no cases of dengue haemorrhagic fever was reported until 1965. Now, several hundred cases a year have been reported annually from 1991. 4 The only two published articles from Sri Lanka on myocardial involvement described cardiac sequelae, diagnosed quite late, retrospectively, in the non-active phase of the illness.56 Recent epidemics of the disease in Sri Lanka led us to design a study to look at myocardial involvement in clinically and serologically confirmed cases of dengue infection.

Prediction of bacterial vulvovaginitis in girls at different Tanner stages of sexual development

At present, there is a paucity of research studies that comprehensively investigate the factors causing vulvovaginitis in young females. The aim of this work was to propose an algorithm for predicting the risk of vulvovaginitis in young girls and adolescents. The study recruited 252 healthy girls, who were stratified into a few groups depending on their sexual development on the Tanner scale. The composition of vaginal microbiota was determined in all the participants using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR); distribution of allele and genotype frequencies was assessed for the polymorphic variants of genes coding for pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Based on the obtained data, we created a functional model for predicting the risk of vulvovaginitis in girls at different stages of sexual development. Favorable risk factors for Tanner I girls included predominance of obligate anaerobes in vaginal microbiota and the polymorphic IL10 variant (C-819T) homozygous for TT. The sensitivity of the model was 80%, its specificity was 78%. Favorable risk factors for prepubertal and pubertal girls included predominance of aerobes in the composition of vaginal microbiota and the presence of the TT allele in the polymorphic IL10 gene variant (C-3953T). The sensitivity of the model was 58.3%, whereas specificity, 94.1%. This study provides the rationale conforming with the principles of evidence-based medicine for using prevention measures in the groups at risk for vulvovaginitis at young age. The proposed measures allowed us to reduce the relapse rate of bacterial vulvovaginitis threefold.
A novel dynamic network imaging analysis method reveals aging-related fragmentation of cortical networks in mouse

Network analysis of large-scale neuroimaging data has proven to be a particularly challenging computational problem. In this study, we adapt a novel analytical tool, known as the community dynamic inference method (CommDy), which was inspired by social network theory, for the study of brain imaging data from an aging mouse model. CommDy has been successfully used in other domains in biology; this report represents its first use in neuroscience. We used CommDy to investigate aging-related changes in network parameters in the auditory and motor cortices using flavoprotein autofluorescence imaging in brain slices and in vivo. Analysis of spontaneous activations in the auditory cortex of slices taken from young and aged animals demonstrated that cortical networks in aged brains were highly fragmented compared to networks observed in young animals. Specifically, the degree of connectivity of each activated node in the aged brains was significantly lower than those seen in the young brain, and multivariate analyses of all derived network metrics showed distinct clusters of these metrics in young vs. aged brains. CommDy network metrics were then used to build a random-forests classifier based on NMDA-receptor blockade data, which successfully recapitulated the aging findings, suggesting that the excitatory synaptic substructure of the auditory cortex may be altered during aging. A similar aging-related decline in network connectivity was also observed in spontaneous activity obtained from the awake motor cortex, suggesting that the findings in the auditory cortex are reflections of general mechanisms that occur during aging. Therefore, CommDy therefore provides a new dynamic network analytical tool to study the brain and provides links between network-level and synaptic-level dysfunction in the aging brain.
Student attitudes toward teaching English with technology

The present study investigates attitudes among student teachers toward using electronic resources in teaching. Two groups of student teachers, one composed of students in their first semester and the other composed of students in their third or fourth year, were asked to assess their skills and attitudes, before being shown an example of how open-source, Web-based data and software can be used in teaching English culture and history. The results show that student teachers are positive toward using technology, but that the teacher training program changes neither their attitudes nor their self-reported skills to any large extent.

Acinar Cell Carcinoma of the Pancreas: A Case Report

Acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) of the pancreas is rare and usually presents as a metastasizing tumor with poor prognosis in elderly patients with non-specific symptoms. We describe a case of pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma with peritoneal spread and multiple liver metastases. Abdominal sonography showed a well-marginated echogenic mass with a large central anechoic necrotic portion; CT scanning showed a large mildly enhanced lobulated mass with a low attenuation center and thin rim-like capsular enhancement. Irregular peritumoral peritoneal extension with multiple smalllow attenuation necrotic areas was also noted. Multiple small well-defined metastatic nodules showing low attenuation were scattered in the liver.
