Solar UV‐B radiation limits seedborne anthracnose infection and induces physiological and biochemical responses in Lupinus mutabilis
Authors: Falconí C. E. , Yánez‐Mendizábal V. 
Published: August 2019

The aim of this study was to test whether solar UV‐B radiation and temperature have an effect on infection of lupin seeds by Colletotrichum acutatum. Samples of infected seed were placed in a solar oven and exposed on sunny days for 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90 and 120 min. The degree of reduction in disease incidence and seed germination was dependent on the exposure time. Exposure times of 75 min (UV‐B 4.41 kJ m−2, ≈76 °C) and higher reduced incidence from 5% to undetectable levels, but also reduced seed germination by around 10% compared with untreated seed. Therefore, in a second experiment, infected seeds were exposed for 45 or 60 min in the solar oven (UV‐B 2.83 or 3.75 kJ m−2, respectively, ≈76 °C), for 60 min at ambient temperature (UV‐B 3.75 kJ m−2, ≈21 °C) or to dry heat for 60 min at 75 °C. Exposure for 60 min in the solar oven reduced seed infection by 99%, while UV‐B‐radiated seed at ambient temperature or dry‐heat reduced infection by 60% or 32%, respectively. To evaluate the effect of UV‐B plus high temperature on seedlings, lupin seed exposed for 45 or 60 min (UV‐B 2.83 or 3.75 kJ m−2, respectively, at ≈76 °C) were grown and physiological and biochemical responses of the seedlings were assessed. Seedlings from exposed seed had higher total concentrations of chlorophyll, protein and peroxidase activity than those grown from unexposed infected seed.

Published: August 2019

Composts are effective to promote rehabilitation after drastic disturbance. The eruption of Puyehue–Cordón Caulle complex in 2011 deposited 25–30 cm of tephra in the Argentinean area known as “De los Siete Lagos,” where soil and vegetation had been removed from many sites for the construction of National Route 40 between 2005 and 2015. Roadside revegetation is limited by the drastic disturbance, but also by depth and low nutrient content of the tephra. Our objective was to study substrate and plant rehabilitation after the application of different composts (biosolids compost, BC, and municipal waste compost, MC) and seeding (Trifolium repensandPoa domingensis). Eighteen months after the eruption the following treatments were installed: control, BC and MC, nonseeded and seeded (n = 3). Composts were applied at 60 Mg/ha and seeds were sowed at 2 g/m2. Physicochemical substrate properties (moisture, pH, electrical conductivity [EC]), nutrient content (organic C, available P, total N), and microbial activity (respiration, N mineralization, enzymatic activities) were assessed 15 months after the start of the experiment. Plant cover and biomass were estimated three times during summer–early autumn. Seeding had no effect on roadside revegetation. Composts significantly promoted substrate rehabilitation, as BC had a positive effect on moisture, nutrient content (total N, available P, N mineralization), and microbial activity (leucine‐aminopeptidase and acid phosphomonoesterase activities), while MC significantly increased EC and pH. Finally, composts significantly increased plant cover and biomass, but the community was dominated by exotics favored by harsh environmental conditions and absence of a native seed bank.
Systolic and diastolic hypertension among patients on hemodialysis: Musings on volume overload, arterial stiffness, and erythropoietin
Authors: Georgianos Panagiotis I. , Agarwal Rajiv 
Published: August 2019

AbstractHypertension among patients on hemodialysis is predominantly systolic (either isolated or combined with diastolic hypertension), whereas the scenario of isolated diastolic hypertension is rare and more common in younger patients. Uncontrolled hypertension that persists despite aggressive antihypertensive drug therapy is a reflection of the volume overload that is a prominent mediator of systolic and diastolic BP elevation. Clinical‐trial evidence supports the notion that dry‐weight probing is an effective strategy to improve BP control, even when overt clinical signs and symptoms of volume overload are not present. Accelerated arterial stiffness influences the patterns and rhythms of interdialytic ambulatory BP and is a major determinant of isolated systolic hypertension in hemodialysis. Posthoc analyses of the Hypertension in Hemodialysis patients treated with Atenolol or Lisinopril (HDPAL) trial, however, suggest that arterial stiffness does not make hypertension more resistant to therapy and is unable to predict the treatment‐induced improvement in left ventricular hypertrophy. A combined strategy of sodium restriction, dry‐weight adjustment, and antihypertensive medication use was effective in improving ambulatory BP control regardless of the severity of underlying arteriosclerosis in HDPAL. Other nonvolume‐dependent mechanisms, such as erythropoietin use, appear to be also important contributors and should be taken into consideration, particularly in younger hemodialysis patients with diastolic hypertension. In this article, we explore the role of volume overload, arterial stiffness, and erythropoietin use as causes of systolic vs diastolic hypertension in patients on hemodialysis. We conclude with clinical practice recommendations and with a call for a “volume‐first” approach when managing hemodialysis hypertension.

Authors: Forsyth Johanna , Halliwell Richard E. , Harrand Robert 
Published: August 2019

BackgroundIdentification of environmental allergens in horses with allergic disease facilitates allergen avoidance and targeted immunotherapy.Hypothesis/ObjectivesTo evaluate allergenic co‐reactivity between 44 environmental allergens.AnimalsHorses with suspected allergic disease (n = 344) whose sera were submitted for environmental allergen testing.Methods and materialsAllergen‐specific IgE serological assays were performed using 44 allergens divided into six taxonomically related groups: house dust/storage mites, moulds, insects, grass, tree and weed pollens. Using pairwise comparisons, odds ratios (ORs) were calculated for each environmental pair to determine if there was increased or decreased likelihood of a positive result for one allergen, given a positive result to another. The OR significance was set (using Holm–Bonferroni correction) at P < 0.00006 for all horses (n = 344) and P < 0.00005 for horses with at least one positive reaction (n = 239). Using one‐way ANOVA with Tukey's post hoc tests (significance at P < 0.05), differences in mean log e ORs between three groups, taxonomically related allergens with a statistically significant association (related‐associated), related allergens lacking a significant association (related‐nonassociated) and unrelated allergens were tested.ResultsStatistically significant associations were found between both related and unrelated allergen pairs, the former being more frequent. For all horses (n = 344) and horses with at least one positive reaction (n = 239), co‐reactivity ranged from 100% (grasses) to 0% (moulds). The weeds group was exceptional in having more co‐reactions with another group (grasses).Conclusions and clinical importanceCo‐reactivity was shown within and between certain related allergen groups. Further studies are required to determine whether this is the result of antigenic cross‐reactivity.

AbstractBackground and objectivesLike adults, children can have allergic transfusion reactions (ATRs) and febrile non‐haemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTRs). But published information about the incidence of paediatric ATR and FNHTR is scarce.Materials and methodsThis retrospective study was conducted from April 2002 to June 2018 on children who had ATRs and/or FNHTRs to platelet (PLT), red blood cell (RBC) or washed PLT/RBC concentrate transfusions. We analysed ATR/FNHTR clinical presentations, such as severity, time of occurrence and other features when they occurred.ResultsDuring the study, 2742 children received 23 444 bags of PLT and RBC concentrate (including washed products). ATRs occurred in 100 cases (3·6% of total patients), caused by 201 products (0·9% of total products). In contrast, 28 patients (1·0% of total patients) had 42 FNHTRs caused by 42 products (0·2% of total products). Upon analysis of cases with detailed clinical information, the median onset time for ATRs and FNHTRs was 2·0 h after the start of transfusion. Of the 40% of ATRs that necessitated the discontinuation of blood transfusions, 10% escalated to anaphylaxis. Compared with minor ATRs, anaphylaxis tended to develop quickly. Moreover, 96% of patients with FNHTRs had a fever less than 39°C. There were no associations between blood product types and numbers or occurrence patterns of these reactions.ConclusionThe occurrence of ATRs and FNHTRs in children was variable, although there are common features such as severity and time of occurrence.
Expanding the scope for research on global English‐language advertising
Authors: Li Songqing 
Published: August 2019

AbstractLanguage contact phenomena of English use in global advertising are usually analysed within the framework of world Englishes or linguistic hybridity for an examination of language contact and change, borrowing, hybridization, bilingual creativity, language attitudes, functions, and others. The insights of postcolonial performativity, however, suggest reconsidering the theoretical grounding for studying English use at the transnational level in diverse genres of different sociolinguistic communities around the world. This article posits a new direction for studying the use of English in global advertising. The high level of variation and complexity observable in many aspects of English use is assumed to be germane to, and constantly mediated through language ideologies that are often diverse, complex, unstable and even conflicting.
The effectiveness of subtitles in cross‐cultural television commercials
Authors: Raedts Mariet , Roozen Irene , De Weerdt Emmy 
Published: August 2019

AbstractLittle is known about the effectiveness of subtitles in cross‐cultural advertising messages. In an experimental study, we analyzed the advertising effectiveness of (non‐)subtitled English‐only TV commercials for different global brands. Advertising effectiveness was measured in two ways: communication effectiveness (that is, perceived and actual comprehension of the advertising message and attitude towards the use of English in the commercial) and marketing effectiveness (attitude towards the commercial, the product and purchase intention). In addition, we took into account the verbal complexity of the commercials. We ran the experiment in two Belgian teenagers’ samples: a Dutch‐speaking sample (subtitling region) and a French‐speaking sample (dubbing region). We found that subtitles positively influence the communication effectiveness of English‐only commercials containing words that transcend the language level of elementary English learners. Subtitles also boost the marketing effectiveness of commercials with a significant number of words and expressions at (upper) intermediate learner's level.

Circa 2.5 Ga granitoids in the eastern North China craton: Melting from ca. 2.7 Ga accretionary crust
Authors: Li Yilong , Zheng Jianping , Xiao Wenjiao , Wang Guoqing , Brouwer Fraukje M. 
Published: August 2019

AbstractThe Neoarchean crust-mantle interaction and crustal evolution of the North China craton are controversial and are instructive of the processes of continental crust growth and cratonic evolution. We present here a systematic study of the petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology of Neoarchean granitoids from the eastern North China craton to elucidate their petrogenesis and tectonic setting. The rocks were collected from the Jielingkou, Anziling, and Qinhuangdao plutons, and an amphibole-monzoporphyry dike in the Qinhuangdao pluton. Samples from the Jielingkou pluton, consisting dominantly of monzodiorite and diorite with minor monzonite and granodiorite, contain 52.2–64.4 wt% SiO2, 2.46–4.52 wt% MgO (Mg# = 0.41–0.54), 3.76–5.77 wt% Na2O, and K2O/Na2O ratios of 0.29–0.71. The Anziling pluton samples, comprising syenite and monzonite, display slightly higher SiO2 (60.9–66.7 wt%) and K2O/Na2O ratios (0.70–1.11), but lower MgO (1.54–2.33 wt%) and Mg# (0.40–0.47) values, compared to the Jielingkou rocks. The Qinhuangdao pluton samples, consisting mainly of granite and minor syenite and granodiorite, with some diorite and monzoporphyry dikes, are characterized by the highest SiO2 values (75.7–76.9 wt%) and K2O/Na2O ratios (0.73–1.41) and lowest MgO content (0.14–0.32 wt%) among the studied samples. The amphibole-monzoporphyry dike has intermediate SiO2 (56.3 wt%), high MgO (3.79 wt%), Na2O (5.55 wt%), and Mg# (0.45), and low K2O/Na2O ratio (0.66). Zircon U-Pb laser-ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry dating showed that all plutons have a ca. 2.5 Ga crystallization age. Zircon crystals have mildly positive εHf(t) values (+0.24 to +5.45) and a depleted mantle model age (TDM1) of ca. 2.7 Ga. We interpret the granitoid rocks as sanukitoid-related, Closepet-type granites, potassium-rich adakites, and potassium-rich granitoid rocks that crystallized in the late Neoarchean (2.5 Ga) and were derived from partial melting of mantle peridotite that was metasomatized with the addition of slab melt, thickened alkali-rich juvenile lower crust and juvenile metamorphosed tonalitic rocks. Mantle plume activity ca. 2.7 Ga is thought to have been responsible for the early Neoarchean tectono-thermal event in the eastern North China craton. This activity resulted in a major crustal accretion period in the craton, with subordinate crustal reworking at its margins. A steep subduction regime between ca. 2.55 Ga and ca. 2.48 Ga led to the remelting of older crustal material, with subordinate crustal accretion by magma upwelling from a depleted mantle source resulting in late Neoarchean underplating. This crustal reworking and underplating resulted in the widespread ca. 2.5 Ga plutons in the eastern North China craton. Continental crust growth in the North China craton thus occurred in multiple stages, in response to mantle plume activity, as well as protracted subduction-related granitoid magmatism during the Neoarchean.
Few training sessions between return to play and first match appearance are associated with an increased propensity for injury: a prospective cohort study of male professional football players during 16 consecutive seasons
Authors: Bengtsson Håkan , Ekstrand Jan , Waldén Markus , Hägglund Martin 
Published: August 2019

Background
It has been hypothesised that injury risk after return to play following an injury absence is influenced by the amount of training completed before return to competition.

Aim
To analyse if the number of completed training sessions between return to play and the first subsequent match appearance was associated with the odds of injury in men’s professional football.

Methods
From a cohort study, including 303 637 individual matches, 4805 first match appearances after return to play following moderate to severe injuries (≥8 days absence) were analysed. Rate ratios (RRs) were used to compare injury rates in the first match appearances with the average seasonal match injury rate. Odds ratios (ORs) were used to analyse associations between the number of completed training sessions and general (all injuries), muscle, and non-muscle injury odds.

Results
Injury rate in the first match after return to play was increased by 87% compared with the average seasonal match injury rate (46.9 vs 25.0/1000 hours, RR=1.87; 95% CI 1.64 to 2.14). The odds of injury dropped 7% with each training session before the first match (OR 0.93; 95% CI 0.87 to 0.98). The same association was found for muscle injuries (OR 0.87; 95% CI 0.79 to 0.95) but not for non-muscle injuries (OR 0.99; 95% CI 0.91 to 1.07).

Conclusions
Injury rates in the first match after injury are higher than the average seasonal match injury rate, but the propensity for player injury is decreased when players complete more training sessions before their first match.

IntroductionIdiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) is the most common glomerulopathy that results in childhood chronic kidney disease in China, but the relationships between different clinical phenotypes and immunological genetic variants observed in patients with INS are ambiguous and have not been well studied. A cohort study combined with whole exome sequencing might further identify the effects of immunological genetic variants on clinical phenotypes and treatment outcomes.Methods and analysisWe describe a 3 year prospective observational single-centre cohort study to be conducted in the Children’s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University in China. This study will recruit and investigate 336 patients with childhood-onset INS presenting with different clinical phenotypes. Whole exome sequencing will be conducted when patients progress to a confirmed clinical phenotype during follow-up. Relevant clinical and epidemiological data, as well as conventional specimens, will be collected at study entry and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 3 years after disease onset. After this cohort is generated, the immunological genetic variants of steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome without frequent relapse, steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome and steroid-dependent/frequent relapse nephrotic syndrome will be evaluated.Ethics and disseminationThe study protocol is approved by Ethics Committee of Children’s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University (reference number 2018–140). The results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and conference presentations.Trial registration numberChiCTR1800019795
