description: The use of earth observation data and services yields extensive benefits to the society, environment, and economy. Especially actors in the Arctic region are going to be more dependent on earth observation services in the future, as the Arctic is changing rapidly due to climate change. There is a growing need to quantify the benefits from earth observation services to justify investments made into earth observation technologies and to defend research budgets against competing priorities. This study aims to determine the most suitable tools for the assessment of benefits of earth observation data and services in the Arctic area. A literature study was conducted to review the most essential benefit assessment tools. The applicability of cost-benefit analysis, benefit transfer, value chains, Value Tree Analysis, Weather Service Chain Analysis, and Spatineo Impact were reviewed. Finally, a case study assessing benefits from a lake ice service was performed. The case study applied Spatineo Impact and Value Tree Analysis. By comparing methods in the literature study, Value Tree Analysis combined with cost-benefit analysis is concluded to be the best approach for assessing the socioeconomic impact of earth observing data in the Arctic. This approach supports the representation of various benefits originating from several earth observing systems. In addition, Spatineo Impact proved to be a useful tool for revealing the realized benefits from the usage of a service. This information is especially valuable to providers of open spatial data. The case study emphasized that the results of a benefit assessment are highly dependent on the availability of data and on the time frame the study is conducted. Whenever possible, comprehensive interviews and surveys with end-users should be conducted when assessing the socioeconomic impact of an earth observation service.

description: Rotavirus is the leading cause of childhood deaths due to diarrhea. Although existing oral rotavirus vaccines are highly efficacious in high-income countries, these vaccines have been demonstrated to have decreased efficacy in low- and middle-income countries. A possible explanation for decreased efficacy is the impact of gut microbiota on the enteric immune system's response to vaccination. We analyzed the gut microbiome of 50 children enrolled in a prospective study evaluating response to oral pentavalent rotavirus vaccination (RV5) to assess associations between relative abundance of bacterial taxa and seroconversion following vaccination. Stool samples were taken before the first RV5 dose, and microbiome composition characterized using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and Quantitative Insights Into Microbial Ecology software. Relative abundance of bacterial taxa between seroconverters following the first RV5 dose, those with 3 4-fold increase in rotavirus-specific IgA titers, and nonseroconverters were compared using the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test. We identified no significant differences in microbiome composition between infants who did and did not respond to vaccination. Infants who responded to vaccination tended to have higher abundance of Proteobacteria and Eggerthella, whereas those who did not respond had higher abundance of Fusobacteria and Enterobacteriaceae; however, these differences were not statistically significant following a multiple comparison correction. This study suggests a limited impact of gut microbial taxa on response to oral rotavirus vaccination among infants; however, additional research is needed to improve our understanding of the impact of gut microbiome on vaccine response, toward a goal of improving vaccine efficacy and rotavirus prevention.

description: We present numerical simulations of binary neutron star mergers, comparing irrotational binaries to binaries of NSs rotating aligned to the orbital angular momentum. For the first time, we study spinning BNSs employing nuclear physics equations of state, namely the ones of Lattimer and Swesty as well as Shen, Horowitz, and Teige. We study mainly equal mass systems leading to a hypermassive neutron star (HMNS), and analyze in detail its structure and dynamics. In order to exclude gauge artifacts, we introduce a novel coordinate system used for post-processing. The results for our equal mass models show that the strong radial oscillations of the HMNS modulate the instantaneous frequency of the gravitational wave (GW) signal to an extend that leads to separate peaks in the corresponding Fourier spectrum. In particular, the high frequency peaks which are often attributed to combination frequencies can also be caused by the modulation of the m=2 mode frequency in the merger phase. As a consequence for GW data analysis, the offset of the high frequency peak does not necessarily carry information about the radial oscillation frequency. Further, the low frequency peak in our simulations is dominated by the contribution of the plunge and the first 1-2 bounces. The amplitude of the radial oscillations depends on the initial NS spin, which therefore has a complicated influence on the spectrum. Another important result is that HMNSs can consist of a slowly rotating core with an extended, massive envelope rotating close to Keplerian velocity, contrary to the common notion that a rapidly rotating core is necessary to prevent a prompt collapse. Finally, our estimates on the amount of unbound matter show a dependency on the initial NS spin, explained by the influence of the latter on the amplitude of radial oscillations, which in turn cause shock waves.

description: We define twisted Frobenius extensions of graded superrings. We develop equivalent definitions in terms of bimodule isomorphisms, trace maps, bilinear forms, and dual sets of generators. The motivation for our study comes from categorification, where one is often interested in the adjointness properties of induction and restriction functors. We show that $A$ is a twisted Frobenius extension of $B$ if and only if induction of $B$-modules to $A$-modules is twisted shifted right adjoint to restriction of $A$-modules to $B$-modules. A large (non-exhaustive) class of examples is given by the fact that any time $A$ is a Frobenius graded superalgebra, $B$ is a graded subalgebra that is also a Frobenius graded superalgebra, and $A$ is projective as a left $B$-module, then $A$ is a twisted Frobenius extension of $B$.

description: For a second countable locally compact group $G$ and a closed abelian subgroup $H$, we give a range function classification of closed subspaces in $L^2(G)$ invariant under left translation by $H$. For a family $\mathscr{A} \subset L^2(G)$, this classification ties with a set of conditions under which the translations of $\mathscr{A}$ by $H$ form a continuous frame or a Riesz sequence. When $G$ is abelian, our work relies on a fiberization map; for the more general case, we introduce an analogue of the Zak transform. Both transformations intertwine translation with modulation, and both rely on a new group-theoretic tool: for a closed subgroup $Γ\subset G$, we produce a measure on the space $Γ\backslash G$ of right cosets that gives a measure space isomorphism $G \cong Γ\times Γ\backslash G$. Outside of the group setting, we consider a more general problem: for a measure space $X$ and a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, we investigate conditions under which a family of functions in $L^2(X;\mathcal{H})$ multiplies with a basis-like system in $L^2(X)$ to produce a continuous frame or a Riesz sequence in $L^2(X;\mathcal{H})$. Finally, we explore connections with dual integrable representations of LCA groups, as introduced by Hern{á}ndez et al.

description: In the context of real-world path planning applications for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), aspects such as handling of multiple objectives (e.g., minimizing risk, path length, travel time, energy consumption, or noise pollution), generation of smooth trajectories in 3D space, and the ability to deal with urban environments have to be taken into account jointly by an optimization algorithm to provide practically feasible solutions. Since the currently available methods do not allow for that, in this paper, we propose a holistic approach for solving a Multi-Objective Path Planning (MOPP) problem for UAVs in a three-dimensional, large-scale urban environment. For the tackled optimization problem, we propose an energy model and a noise model for a UAV, following a smooth 3D path. We utilize a path representation based on 3D Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS). As optimizers, we use a conventional version of an Evolution Strategy (ES), two standard Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms (MOEAs) – NSGA2 and MO-CMA-ES, and a gradient-based L-BFGS-B approach. To guide the optimization, we propose hybrid versions of the mentioned algorithms by applying an advanced initialization scheme that is based on the exact bidirectional Dijkstra algorithm. We compare the different algorithms with and without hybrid initialization in a statistical analysis, which considers the number of function evaluations and quality features of the obtained Pareto fronts indicating convergence and diversity of the solutions. We evaluate the methods on a realistic 3D urban path planning scenario in New York City, based on real-world data exported from OpenStreetMap. The examination’s results indicate that hybrid initialization is the main factor for the efficient identification of near-optimal solutions.

description: In this work we propose a setup for applying large controlled external magnetic fields in magnet on force transducers by Atomic Force Microscopy. We have measured the creep response of soft gels and cells after applying a step in loading force with atomic force microscopy (AFM). By analysing the creep response data using the standard linear solid model, we can quantify the viscous and elastic properties of these soft samples independently. Cells, in comparison with gels of similar softness, are much more viscous, as has been qualitatively observed in conventional force curve data before. Here, we quantify the spring constant and the viscous damping coefficient from the creep response data. We propose two different modes for applying a force step: (1) indirectly by increasing the sample height or (2) directly by employing magnetic cantilevers. Both lead to similar results, whereas the latter seems to be better defined since it resembles closely a constant strain mode. The former is easier to implement in most instruments, and thus may be preferable from a practical point of view. Creep analysis by step response is much more appropriate to analyse the viscoelastic response of soft samples like cells than the usually used force curve analysis.

description: To examine the effect of nanoparticulate phosphate rock (NPR) as both a liming agent and phosphorus source in a tropical acid soil. The study examined five rates of NPR (0, 250, 500, 1000, or 2000 kg ha−1), which supplies 30, 60, 120 or 240 kg P ha−1, in a randomized complete pot experiment design with 3 replications. The pots of soil were incubated in a climate-controlled greenhouse for 21 days and then spinach was grown for 49 days. Soil parameters (pH, available P and exchangeable acidity), spinach parameters (leaf area, root hair surface area, root length and dry matter yield) and the effectiveness of NPR dissolution were estimated. The soil and plant parameters and the effective NPR dissolution all increased to the same degree at 1000 and 2000 kg NPR ha−1. Therefore, the use of 1000 kg ha−1 was most economically justified. Although, NPR has been appeared as an effective liming agent and phosphorus source in tropical acid soil. However, a regular application of NPR and further research for economic comparison between NPR and both of lime and superphosphate, as well as the original PR, will be needed.

description: We develop a non-relativistic twistor theory, in which Newton--Cartan structures of Newtonian gravity correspond to complex three-manifolds with a four-parameter family of rational curves with normal bundle ${\mathcal O}\oplus{\mathcal O}(2)$. We show that the Newton--Cartan space-times are unstable under the general Kodaira deformation of the twistor complex structure. The Newton--Cartan connections can nevertheless be reconstructed from Merkulov's generalisation of the Kodaira map augmented by a choice of a holomorphic line bundle over the twistor space trivial on twistor lines. The Coriolis force may be incorporated by holomorphic vector bundles, which in general are non--trivial on twistor lines. The resulting geometries agree with non--relativistic limits of anti-self-dual gravitational instantons.

description: The role of commensal microbiota in enteric viral infections has been explored extensively, but the interaction between human gut microbiota (HGM) and human norovirus (HuNoV) is poorly understood. In this study, we established an HGM-Transplanted gnotobiotic (Gn) pig model of HuNoV infection and disease, using an infant stool as HGM transplant and a HuNoV GII.4/2006b strain for virus inoculation. Compared to germ-free Gn pigs, HuNoV inoculation in HGMT Gn pigs resulted in increased HuNoV shedding, characterized by significantly higher shedding titres on post inoculation day (PID) 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9, and significantly longer mean duration of virus shedding. In addition, virus titres were significantly higher in duodenum and distal ileum of HGMT Gn pigs on PID10, while comparable and transient HuNoV viremia was detected in both groups. 16S rRNA gene sequencing demonstrated that HuNoV infection dramatically altered intestinal microbiota in HGMT Gn pigs at the phylum (Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes) and genus (Enterococcus, Bifidobacterium, Clostridium, Ruminococcus, Anaerococcus, Bacteroides and Lactobacillus) levels. In summary, enhanced GII.4 HuNoV infection was observed in the presence of HGM, and host microbiota was susceptible to disruption upon HuNoV infection.

description: The interplay between non-Markovian dynamics and driving fields in the survival of entanglement between two non-degenerate oscillators is considered here. Based on exact analytical results for the non-Markovian dynamics of two parametrically coupled non-degenerate oscillators in contact to non-identical independent thermal baths, the out-of-equilibrium quantum limit derived in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 180501 (2010)] is generalized to the non-Markovian regime. Specifically, it is shown that non-Markovian dynamics, when compared to the Markovian case, allow for the survival of stationary entanglement at higher temperatures, with larger coupling strength to the baths and at smaller driving rates. The effect of the asymmetry of the (i) coupled oscillators, (ii) coupling strength to the baths at equal temperature and (iii) temperature at equal coupling strength is discussed.

Isotope Effect of Underdoped Cuprates in the Yang-Rice-Zhang Model

description: The underdoped region of the cuprate's phase diagram displays many novel electronic phenomena both in the normal and the superconducting state. Many of these anomalous properties have found a natural explanation within the resonating valence bond spin liquid phenomenological model of Yang-Rice-Zhang (YRZ) which includes the rise of a pseudogap. This leads to Fermi surface reconstruction and profoundly changes the electronic structure. Here we extend previous work to consider the shift in critical temperature on $^{16}$O to $^{18}$O substitution, The isotope effect has been found experimentally to be very small at optimal doping yet to rapidly increase to very large values with underdoping. The YRZ model provides a natural explanation of this behavior and supports the idea of a pairing mechanism which is mainly spin fluctuations with a subdominant $(\sim 10\%)$ phonon contribution.

description: Objectives: This study aimed to understand what information the US media communicated about Zika virus (ZIKV) and travel in 2016 and 2017. Study design: We conducted a content analysis of news coverage about ZIKV and travel from April 5, 2016 to March 31, 2017. Methods: We obtained a stratified, random sample of English language, US print newspaper and television news coverage about ZIKV and travel. We developed a coding scheme to assess key messages in the news, including how ZIKV is transmitted, the symptoms and outcomes of ZIKV infection, and recommended prevention behaviors. Results: Almost all news stories mentioned mosquito-borne transmission (96.8%) and just over half mentioned sexual transmission (55.3%). News stories were more likely to talk about ZIKV outcomes (78.8%) than ZIKV symptoms (40.6%). However, outcomes affecting babies were mentioned more frequently than outcomes affecting adults. Recommendations included a wide array of protective behaviors, such as delaying or avoiding travel (77.6%) and using mosquito repellent (41.0%). However, few studies (10.9%) mentioned barriers to practicing ZIKV prevention behaviors. Conclusions: Public health organizations and professionals can use these findings to help improve communication about future outbreaks of mosquito-borne illnesses. We also recommend conducting real-time monitoring of news media and frequent content analysis of news stories to ensure coverage provides the information the public needs.

title: Beyond Social Inclusion, Towards Educational Justice To Come: Touching, Growing, Bonding With/In/Around Artmaking In Early Years Settings
Creators: name: Vacková, Petra
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: Educational inequalities are on the rise. A growing body of literature shows that inclusive education driven by social inclusion agenda has been inefficient and, in some cases, even completely unsuccessful in tackling inequalities in education across Europe. Nevertheless, social inclusion is becoming a global phenomenon and has been adopted as a dominant approach to tackling educational inequalities, especially in countries of the global north. The arts have been positioned as a tool central to this effort and an easy-fix solution to deeply engrained societal and educational problems. A reductive and narrow approach to educational justice developed around neoliberal agendas, however, limits the possibilities of the arts and education for educational justice. The aim of this study is to think differently about social inclusion and exclusion and the role of artmaking in relation to educational justice. The study provides an expanded, anti-anthropocentric inquiry into processes of social inclusion and exclusion around artmaking activities. It develops a ‘response-able’ and affirmative research practice to think together with children, adults, and their material surroundings about what the various encounters in and around artmaking in their settings do beyond inclusion and exclusion. And lastly, it engages posthumanist and new materialist theories and concepts to propose alternative possibilities for building towards fair and just educational futures. Drawing on six-months of ethnographic fieldwork, this study argues that it is time to stop equating a narrow set of neoliberal targets to educational justice and instead turn towards building quality, responsible and responsive, learning relationships that generate collective, new, and ethical educational practices fundamental to addressing educational injustices. The study is an invitation to imagine what educational settings could be like if processes enacted in and around artmaking activities were understood as collective processes of touching, growing, and bonding during which encounters among children, adults, objects, and place become life-sustaining moments that work towards just educational futures to come.

description: We are monitoring 27 galaxies within 10 Mpc using the Large Binocular Telescope to search for failed supernovae (SNe), massive stars that collapse to form a black hole without a SN explosion. We present the results from the first 4 years of survey data, during which these galaxies were observed to produce 3 successful core-collapse SNe. We search for stars that have "vanished" over the course of our survey, by examining all stars showing a decrease in luminosity of $ΔνL_ν \ge 10^4L_{\odot}$ from the first to the last observation. We also search for the low luminosity, long duration transients predicted by \citet{lovegrove2013} for failed explosions of red supergiants. After analyzing the first 4 years of data in this first direct search for failed SNe, we are left with one candidate requiring further study. This candidate has an estimated mass of 18-25$M_{\odot}$, a mass range likely associated with failed SNe and, if real, implies that failed SN represent a median fraction of $f \simeq 0.30$ of core-collapses, with symmetric 90% confidence limits of $0.07 \le f \le 0.62$. If follow up data eliminate this candidate, we find an upper limit on the fraction of core collapses leading to a failed SN of $f<0.40$ at 90% confidence. As the duration of the survey continues to increase, it will begin to constrain the $f \simeq$ 10-30% failure rates needed to explain the deficit of massive SN progenitors and the observed black hole mass function.

description: Limited data exist about U.S. travelers’ knowledge, risk perceptions, and behaviors related to the Zika virus (ZIKV). Using an internet research panel, in March 2017, we surveyed 1,202 Americans in the continental United States and Puerto Rico who planned to travel to a ZIKV-affected country, state, or U.S. territory in 2017. We compared levels of knowledge and perceived risk of ZIKV, and intentions to practice ZIKV prevention behaviors across respondents from three regions: Puerto Rico, at-risk states, and other states. More than 80% of respondents correctly understood that a person could acquire ZIKV through a bite from an infected mosquito, and over 64% of respondents knew that a pregnant woman could pass the virus to her fetus. Less than half of the respondents from at-risk states and other states knew that ZIKV could be transmitted sexually, as compared with three-quarters of respondents from Puerto Rico. Compared with respondents from at-risk and other states, respondents from Puerto Rico were the most knowledgeable for almost all types of knowledge assessed. Knowledge about post-travel precautions was low across all three regions. Differences in perceived risk and intentions to practice specific prevention behaviors also varied among regions. Significant gaps exist in U.S. travelers’ knowledge about how to prevent ZIKV transmission both during and after travel. Input and collaboration from the travel industry, health care providers, and the media are needed to help educate travelers about how to prevent ZIKV infection and transmission.

description: Chalcones are valuable structures for drug discovery due to their broad bioactivity spectrum. In this study, we evaluated 20 synthetic chalcones against estrogen-receptor-positive breast cancer cells (MCF-7 line) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells (MDA-MB-231 line). Antiproliferative screening by MTT assay resulted in two most active compounds: 2-fluoro-4’-aminochalcone (11) and 3-pyridyl-4’-aminochalcone (17). Their IC50 values ranged from 13.2 to 34.7 µM against both cell lines. Selected chalcones are weak basic compounds and maintained their antiproliferative activity under acidosis conditions (pH 6.7), indicating their resistance to ion-trapping effect. The mode of breast cancer cells death was investigated and chalcones 11 and 17 were able to induce apoptosis rather than necrosis in both lines. Antiproliferative target investigations with MCF-7 cells suggested 11 and 17 upregulated p53 protein expression and did not affect Sp1 protein expression. Future studies on chalcones 11 and 17 can define their in vivo therapeutic potential.

description: A major focus of early intervention research is determining the risk of conversion to psychosis and developing optimal algorithms of prediction. Although reported rates of nonconversion vary in the literature, the nonconversion rate always encompasses a majority (50%–85%) of the sample participants. Less is known about the outcome among this group, referred to as false positive individuals.
Competing magnetic double-Q phases and superconductivity-induced re-entrance of C2 magnetic stripe order in iron pnictides

description: We perform a microscopic theoretical study of the generic properties of competing magnetic phases in iron pnictides. As a function of electron filling and temperature, the magnetic stripe (single-Q) order forms a dome, but competing non-collinear and non-uniform double-Q phases exist at the foot of the dome in agreement with recent experiments. We compute and compare the electronic properties of the different magnetic phases, investigate the role of competing superconductivity, and show how disorder may stabilize double-Q order. Superconductivity is shown to compete more strongly with double-Q magnetic phases, which can lead to re-entrance of the C2 (single-Q) order in agreement with recent thermal expansion measurements on K-doped Ba-122 crystals.

description: В конце первого десятилетия XV столетия в денежном обращении Псковской республики происходят важнейшие изменения, связанные с вводом в оборот в качестве официального внутреннего средства расчета иностранной валюты. В летописных текстах содержатся отрывочные сообщения, касающиеся начала и завершения данного процесса, с указанием «местных» названий двух номиналов европейских монет: «пенязи» и «артугы», в идентификации которых среди исследователей единого мнения нет.
В 2017–2020 гг. в ходе археологических раскопок в Пскове на Мстиславских раскопах была получена нумизматическая коллекция, в которой выделяется сегмент ливонских монет конца XIV – начала XV вв., (в том числе и поддельных экземпляров в ущерб денежному обращению) по мнению авторов статьи упомянутых в летописи. Идентификация данных монет помогает выявить денежные величины, лежащие в основе собственной эмиссии независимого Пскова, проследить международные контакты республики в начале XV в. и ввести в научный оборот высокоинформативный археологический материал.
Известное по письменным источникам и подтвержденное конкретными нумизматическими находками время выхода из обращения в Псковской и Новгородской республиках ливонских монет превращает их в археологический источник, узко датирующий культурный слой.

description: Maternal major depressive disorder is an established risk factor for child psychopathology. The authors previously reported that 1 year after initiation of treatment for maternal depression, children of mothers whose depression remitted had significantly improved functioning and psychiatric symptoms. This study extends these findings by examining changes in psychiatric symptoms, behavioral problems, and functioning among children of depressed mothers during the first year after the mothers' remission from depression.

description: The ongoing Zika pandemic has affected many countries that are common travel destinations. We assessed the willingness to receive a prophylactic Zika virus (ZIKV) vaccine, currently under development, among travelers to areas with reported autochthonous ZIKV transmission. We surveyed United States (U.S.) residents aged 18–44 years who had ever heard of ZIKV and planned to travel to Florida and/or Texas (N = 420) or a U.S. territory or foreign country (N = 415) in 2017, using a nationally representative internet panel. Travelers to Florida and/or Texas reported less concern about ZIKV infection than travelers to other destinations (27% versus 36%, P = 0.01). Female sex, Hispanic ethnicity, discussing ZIKV with medical professionals, ZIKV risk perception, and self-efficacy for ZIKV prevention predicted concern about ZIKV infection in both groups. Travelers to Florida and/or Texas (43%) and other destinations (44%) were equally willing to receive a ZIKV vaccine. Hispanic ethnicity, discussing ZIKV with medical professionals, and concern about ZIKV infection predicted vaccine willingness in both groups. Likelihood of using existing ZIKV prevention methods, confidence in the U.S. government to prevent ZIKV spread, self-efficacy for ZIKV prevention, and knowledge about ZIKV symptoms further predicted vaccine willingness in travelers to other destinations. In multivariable analyses, only concern about ZIKV infection was associated with vaccine willingness in both groups (prevalence ratio [95% confidence interval]: Florida and/or Texas: 1.34 [1.06, 1.69]; other: 1.82 [1.44, 2.29]). Targeted communications can educate travelers, particularly travelers who are pregnant or may become pregnant, about ZIKV risk to generate ZIKV vaccine demand.

description: Brain enlargement has been observed in individuals with autism as early as two years of age. Studies using head circumference suggest that brain enlargement is a postnatal event that occurs around the latter part of the first year. To date, no brain imaging studies have systematically examined the period prior to age two. In this study we examine MRI brain volume in six month olds at high familial risk for autism.

description: Background: Environmental enteropathy (EE) is a common intestinal condition among children living in low- and middle-income countries and is associated with diminished enteric immunity to gastrointestinal pathogens, and possibly to oral vaccine antigens. The goal of this study was to examine associations between biomarkers of EE and immunogenicity to the pentavalent rotavirus vaccine (RV5). Methods: Infants were recruited 1 day before their first RV5 immunization in León, Nicaragua, from public health rosters. Infants provided a preimmunization blood and stool sample, and a second blood sample 1 month after receipt of RV5. We measured immunoglobin A (IgA) seroconversion to the first dose of RV5 and concentrations of 4 previously identified fecal biomarkers of EE (alpha-1 antitrypsin, neopterin, myeloperoxidase and calprotectin). We then assessed associations between concentrations of these biomarkers, both individually and as combined scores, and seroconversion to the first dose of RV5. Results: Of the 43 enrolled infants, 24 (56%) seroconverted after the first dose of RV5. As compared with infants who seroconverted, those who did not seroconvert had higher median concentrations of both myeloperoxidase (3.1 vs. 1.1 μg/mL, P = 0.002) and calprotectin (199.1 vs. 156.2 μg/mL, P = 0.03). Further, those who did not seroconvert had a higher median combined score of the 4 biomarkers as compared with those who seroconverted (6.5 vs. 4.5, P = 0.017). Conclusions: We found an association between biomarkers of EE and seroconversion to the first dose of RV5. It is possible that interventions that prevent or ameliorate EE may also improve oral rotavirus vaccine response.
