The effect of producing and culturing Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fingerlings in biofloc technology (BFT)-based systems was investigated in terms of zootechnical performance, aiming to define the best culturing density for 64 days. A completely randomized design was used, with four replications totaling 24 experimental units. The weight gain of each batch of animals per experimental unit (E.U.) was evaluated at densities of 200, 400, 600, 800, and 1,000 fingerlings m-3. For controls, a Water Recirculation System with 248 fingerlings m-3 was used. The fingerlings were fed commercial feed containing 35% protein and brown sugar as a carbohydrate source at a C:N ratio of 20:1. Dissolved oxygen, total ammonia nitrogen, pH, and temperature were monitored daily, and nitrite and alkalinity were monitored weekly. The analysis of weight gain data obtained a linear function y = - 0.0017X2 + 3.724X í 87.77, with r2 = 0.864, coefficient of variation = 14.23%, and correlation coefficient = 0.91. At the end of the cultivation period the systemââ‚¬â„¢s planktonic community presented high diversity, dominated by rotifers and diatoms. The data of survival, density management demand, and physicochemical parameters variations of the water suggested an optimal density of 800 fish m-3, since this resulted in an average weight gain per E.U. of 1,891.25 Â± 151.24 g, with a productive efficiency index of 274.96 that is approximately three times that of the control treatment (87.43). Biofloc technology can be employed in two-phase super-intensive Nile tilapia culture systems, with a stocking density in the rearing stage of 800 fish m-3.

Abstract
Background : Serum trace elements have been some time suggested to influence the development of gastric cancer, but evidence is still lacking.
Methods : In a case-control study from a high risk region of East China, all newly diagnosed patients with gastric cancer were compared with healthy controls 1:1 matched by sex, age (± 3 years) and place of residence during 2013- 2015.
Results : A total of 299cases of gastric cancers, which included 122 cases of gastric cardia cancer (GCC) and 177 gastric non-cardia cancer (NCGC), and 299 healthy controls were included. Positive associations were found between serum copper and copper/zinc ratio and risk of overall gastric cancer (OR 4th vs. 1st quartile : 2.42, 95% CI: 1.10-5.32 for copper, p for trend=0.003; OR 4th vs. 1st quartile : 11.7, 95% CI: 3.83-35.6 for copper/zinc ratio, p for trend<0.0001), and for both GCC and NCGC subtypes. Serum selenium inversely associated with risk of NCGC (OR 4th vs. 1st quartile : 0.18, 95% CI: 0.07-0.51, p for trend=0.0001), while molybdenum seem to reduce risk of GCC (OR 4th vs. 1st quartile : 0.12, 95% CI: 0.03-0.47, p for trend<0.0001). Strong inverse associations were also detected between serum calcium and risk of all groups of gastric cancer (all p for trend<0.05). Although intermediate serum level of zinc and iron had lower risk of gastric cancer, no linear association was however found (all p for trend>0.05).
Conclusions : The current study present evidences for positive associations between copper, copper/zinc ratio and gastric cancer, as well as for inverse associations between serum selenium, molybdenum and calcium and risk of gastric cancer.

Published: September 2019

Abstract
Background

Hypoglycemia is an acute medical situation that occurs when blood sugar falls below the recommended level. Even though, hypoglycemia prevention practice in the management of diabetes mellitus is one cornerstone in controlling the effect of hypoglycemia, hypoglycemia prevention practice among patients with diabetes mellitus is insufficiently studied. Moreover, the existed scarce literature in Ethiopia revealed hypoglycemia prevention practice is inadequate. Thus, this study tried to assess hypoglycemia prevention practices and associated factors among diabetic patients.Methods

Hospital-based, cross-sectional study design was employed from April one to March one 2018 in Central Zone of Tigray Regional state of Ethiopia. A total of 272 diabetes mellitus patients were selected by systematic random sampling method from study area. The collected data was checked for its completeness and then entered into Epi data version 3.1 then cleaned and analyzed using SPSS version 23. Binary logistic regression model (AOR, 95% CI and p-value < 0.05) was used to determine the predictors of hypoglycemia prevention practice.Results

the mean age of respondents was 52.19 years and about 100 (63.2%) had good hypoglycemia prevention practice. Good knowledge regarding hypoglycemia [AOR = 10.34; 95% CI [5.41, 19.89]], having a glucometer at home [AOR = 3. 02; 95% CI [1.12, 8.12]], favorable attitude towards diabetes mellitus [AOR = 2.36 CI [1.26, 4.39]], and being governmental employee [AOR = 5.19, 95% CI [1.63, 16.58]] were positive predictors of good hypoglycemia prevention practice. However, being divorced [AOR =0.13, 95% CI [0.32, 0.53]] was found negatively associated with good hypoglycemia prevention practice.Conclusion

Around two third of the study participants were found to have good hypoglycemia prevention practice. Good knowledge and favorable attitude toward diabetes mellitus, having glucometer at home, being governmental employee and divorced were found to be the predictors of good hypoglycemia prevention practice.

Published: September 2019

AbstractThe reverse flow of seawater causes salinity in inland waterways and threatens water resources of the coastal population. In the Pearl River Delta, saltwater intrusion has resulted in a water crisis. In this study, we proposed a tailored approach to chlorinity prediction at complex delta systems like the Pearl River Delta. We identified the delayed predictors prior to optimization based on the maximal information coefficient (MIC) and Pearson's correlation coefficient (r). To achieve an ensemble simulation, a Bayesian model averaging (BMA) method was applied to integrate temporally sensitive empirical model predictions given by random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and Elman neural network (ENN). The results showed that: (a) The ENN performed the worst among the three; (b) The BMA approach outperformed the individual models (i.e., RF, ENN, and SVM) in terms of Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), and the percentage of bias (Pbias). The BMA weights reflect the model performance and the correlation of the predictions given by its ensemble models. (c) Our variable selection method resulted in a stronger model with greater interpretability.
Water quality response to river flow regime at three major rivers in Alberta
Authors: Rostami Sajjad , He Jianxun , Hassan Quazi K. 
Published: September 2019

AbstractBoth anthropogenic activities and natural factors affect river water in quantity and quality, while anthropogenic activities have been often blamed to cause water quality temporal degradation. In addition, riverine water quality displays intra-annual/seasonal variations, which are often more prominent than inter-annual variations. The intra-annual variations in water quality, which are attracting the attention of managers and policy-makers, beg the question of how to better manage riverine water quality at a finer time resolution. The natural factors, in particular, the hydro-meteorological variables, could be the primary drivers of the intra-annual variations of riverine water quality. Therefore, this paper examined the association between riverine water quality and one hydro-meteorological variable (flow) with the focus on their relationship at the intra-annual timescale on three selected rivers in Alberta, Canada. The results demonstrated that flow drives intra-annual variation of riverine water quality in general. Moreover, some water quality parameters responded to flow distinctively at three flow regimes (low, medium, and high flows). Water quality parameters were categorized into eight groups according to their responses to flow at the flow regimes. These implied the challenges in water quality management while providing insight into how to formulate more effective water management strategies.

Published: September 2019

AbstractThe evaluation of irrigation water efficiency plays an important role in the efficient use of agricultural water resources and the sustainable development of agriculture. In order to make the evaluation of irrigation water use efficiency indicators more comprehensive and scientific, this paper constructs a new optimal model of evaluation indicators. By combining the Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) model with the Information Significance Difference (ISD) evaluation indicators model, a novel DPSIR-ISD evaluation indicators combination model was constructed. Ten riverside irrigation areas in the Sanjiang Plain of northeastern China were selected for analysis. The results show that the DPSIR-ISD model was used to reduce the number of indicators from 44 to 14; these 14 indicators reflected 91.88% of the original information. The DPSIR-ISD method proposed in this paper takes into account the completeness and simplicity of the indicators system, and is more in line with the actual situation in the field. These results can provide a simpler and more convenient system for optimizing indicators for the study of evaluation indicators used to analyze irrigation water use efficiency.

Published: September 2019

Abstract
In this study, a mesoporous TiO2/carbon catalyst (TiO2/C) was prepared by a facile impregnation-carbonization approach to catalyze ozonation of p-chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB). The catalyst was well characterized and the catalytic efficiency under various conditions was systematically evaluated. TiO2/C has a disordered mesostructure with a high specific surface area. 92.8% of p-CNB (2 μmol/L) can be degraded within 20 min in the TiO2/C/O3 system in the presence of 1 mg/L O3, 100 mg/L catalyst, at pH = 5. Based on the evaluation of the effect of basic parameters, it could be deduced that the removal of p-CNB relied on the synthetic effect of catalysis by TiO2/C and the autocatalytic induction of p-CNB. The removal efficiency of p-CNB, the structure change and the leaching of Ti ions were also evaluated in five cycles, indicating TiO2/C is stable and recyclable for catalytic ozonation in water treatment.

Published: September 2019

Aim:
To compare health plan-paid costs, exacerbations and pneumonia outcomes for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) initiating combination tiotropium olodaterol (TIO + OLO) versus triple therapy (TT: long-acting muscarinic antagonist + long-acting β
2
agonists + inhaled corticosteroid).
Patients & methods:
COPD patients initiating TIO + OLO or TT between 1 January 2014 and 30 June 2016 were identified from a managed care Medicare database and balanced for baseline characteristics using inverse probability of treatment weighting before assessment of outcomes.
Results:
Annual COPD-related and all-cause costs were US$4118 (35%) and US$5384 (23%) lower for TIO + OLO versus TT (both p ≤ 0.001). TIO + OLO patients had nearly half the severe exacerbations (8.3 vs 15.5%; p = 0.014) and pneumonia was also less common (18.9 vs 30.9%; p < 0.001).
Conclusion:
TIO + OLO was associated with improved economic and COPD health outcomes versus TT.

Published: September 2019

OBJECTIVE
To better understand potential facilitators of individual engagement in type 1 diabetes natural history and prevention studies through analysis of enrollment data in the TrialNet Pathway to Prevention (PTP) study.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We used multivariable logistic regression models to examine continued engagement of eligible participants at two time points: 1) the return visit after screening to confirm an initial autoantibody-positive (Ab+) test result and 2) the initial oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) for enrollment into the monitoring protocol.

RESULTS
Of 5,387 subjects who screened positive for a single autoantibody (Ab), 4,204 (78%) returned for confirmatory Ab testing. Younger age was associated with increased odds of returning for Ab confirmation (age &lt;12 years vs. &gt;18 years: odds ratio [OR] 2.12, P &lt; 0.0001). Racial and ethnic minorities were less likely to return for confirmation, particularly nonwhite non-Hispanic (OR 0.50, P &lt; 0.0001) and Hispanic (OR 0.69, P = 0.0001) relative to non-Hispanic white subjects. Of 8,234 subjects, 5,442 (66%) were identified as eligible to be enrolled in PTP OGTT monitoring. Here, younger age and identification as multiple Ab+ were associated with increased odds of returning for OGTT monitoring (age &lt;12 years vs. &gt;18 years: OR 1.43, P &lt; 0.0001; multiple Ab+: OR 1.36, P &lt; 0.0001). Parents were less likely to enroll into monitoring than other relatives (OR 0.78, P = 0.004). Site-specific factors, including site volume and U.S. site versus international site, were also associated with differences in rates of return for Ab+ confirmation and enrollment into monitoring.

CONCLUSIONS
These data confirm clear differences between successfully enrolled populations and those lost to follow-up, which can serve to identify strategies to increase ongoing participation.

Published: September 2019

Abstract
The objective of the current study is to evaluate the complication rates (embolic and hemorrhagic events) in deep venous thrombosis (DVT) patients on different types of oral anticoagulation therapy (OAC): direct oral anticoagulant therapy and vitamin K antagonist therapy.

Methods: A number of 62 DVT patients were included and divided in two groups, depending on the type of oral anticoagulation therapy administered. The first group was composed of patients treated with direct oral anticoagulant treatment (Dabigatran, Rivaroxaban) and the second group was composed of patients treated with vitamin K antagonist (Acenocumarol). General data, including BMI and comorbidities were noted. Embolic and hemorrhagic events were noticed.

Results: in the first group of patients (DOAC therapy), a number of 34 patients were included (14 of them with BMI higher than 25 kg/m2 and 14 with concomitant atrial fibrillation), while the second group comprised of 28 patients treated with VKA (21 of them with a high BMI and only 3 of them with atrial fibrillation). After a mean period of 36 months of anticoagulant therapy, complications were present in 17 patients, hematuria (8 episodes) and pulmonary embolism (4 cases) were the most frequent, with no difference regarding the treatment applied.

Conclusion: No statistically significant difference was encountered regarding embolic and hemorrhagic event rates in our deep vein thrombosis patients.
MicroRNAs as Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Heart Failure
Authors: Szabó István Adorján , Frigy Atilla 
Published: September 2019

Abstract
Heart failure still represents a real challenge both in everyday practice and research, due to the complex issues related to its pathogenesis and management. Humoral biomarkers have emerged in the last decades as useful tools in the diagnosis, risk stratification and guiding the treatment of heart failure. These molecules are related to different pathological and adaptive processes, like myocardial injury, neurohormonal activation and cardiac remodeling, their most widespread representatives being the natriuretic peptides (e.g. NT-proBNP). The role of altered gene expression and transcription as the basis of myocardial structural and functional changes in heart failure is largely recognized. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs which have a major role in post-transcriptional gene expression by interfering with messenger RNA molecules. Our short review summarizes the molecular biology of miRNAs and their possible role as biomarkers in the diagnosis and prognosis of heart failure. Furthermore, the therapeutical perspectives conferred by these molecules are also presented.
Silent Ischemic Stroke Was Revealed after Screening for Cognitive Dysfunction in a Hypertensive Patient with New Onset Atrial Fibrillation – Case Report

Published: September 2019

Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension is one of the most important modifiable risk factor related to cognitive decline and dementia. However, screening for cognitive dysfunction is not part of the routine clinical assessment.

Case presentation: In this report, we present the case of a 75 year old hypertensive male patient with new-onset atrial fibrillation, admitted to the Cardiovascular Rehabilitation Clinic Târgu Mureș. Apart from the routine clinical assessment, the evaluation of cognitive functions was performed with three different screening instruments which identified cognitive dysfunction. Depressive state was assessed with the shortened 13 items form of the Beck Depression Inventory BDI-13 (BDI-13) and it showed moderate depression which could influence the results of cognitive tests. Detection of cognitive impairment was followed by magnetic resonance imaging, which revealed not only hypertension specific microvascular impairment but also a sequelae of a former stroke in the territory of the left middle cerebral artery and a possible meningioma.

Conclusion: Screening for cognitive dysfunction in high-risk hypertensive patients can be easily performed and in several cases like ours, can unmask silent cerebrovascular pathologies, leading to prognostic and therapeutic consequences.

Authors: Benguerai Abdelkader , Benabdeli Khéloufi , Harizia Abdelkader 
Published: September 2019

Abstract
Algeria loses more than 20,000 hectares of forest to fire every year. The losses are costly both in terms of life and property damage, which weighs heavily on the environment and the local economy. Geomatics can complement the conventional methods used in fire hazard prevention and management. The objective of our study is to use the geographic information system (GIS) and the Remote Sensing (RS) technology to develop the fire risk assessment map of the forest massif of Zelamta located in Southeast Mascara province (Northwest Algeria). The methodology employed was an empirical model involving three parameters that can control fire behaviour: geomorphology, vegetal cover combustibility, and human activity. The obtained results can help in the decision-making process as well as provide cartographic support for forest fire prevention and management.
