title: Supplementary Material for: Cardiac Valve Annulus Diameters in Extremely Preterm Infants: A Cross-Sectional Echocardiographic Study

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> With the increasing incidence of births of very preterm very-low-birth-weight infants, there is a demand for echocardiographic reference values of cardiac dimensions. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> The aim of this study was to provide reference values of cardiac valve annulus diameters in a cohort of extremely preterm very-low-birth-weight neonates and to correlate these with patient characteristics. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Valve diameters of 376 infants of &lt; 32 weeks’ gestation and with a birth weight of ≤2,000 g were measured using 2-dimensional echocardiography. Correlations between valve diameters and patient characteristics (birth length/weight, body surface area, gestational age, and sex) were assessed. Birth weight was used to establish linear regression models. Inter- and intraobserver agreement was assessed through intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) analysis. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Substantial variability was found (aortic valve mean [standard deviation; range]: 5.0 mm [0.6; 3.7–6.5]; pulmonic valve: 5.8 mm [0.8; 3.4–7.9]; mitral valve: 8.0 mm [1.0; 5.5–10.5]; tricuspid valve: 7.6 mm [1.2; 4.9–10.6]). There was a moderate correlation between birth weight and valve diameter (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> aortic valve: 0.36; pulmonic valve: 0.20; mitral valve: 0.24; tricuspid valve: 0.24). Adequate intraobserver (ICC range 0.74–0.91) and interobserver agreement (ICC range 0.77–0.89) was found. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Our study provides ready-to-use reference values for cardiac valve annulus diameters for extremely preterm infants.

title: Comparative analysis of differentially expressed genes related to triglyceride metabolism between intramuscular fat and abdominal fat in broilers

description: 1. Lipid metabolism is an indispensable process in an organism, though little is known about the regulatory mechanisms of fat deposition in different types of adipose tissues. 2. The differentially expressed genes related to triglyceride (TG) metabolism between abdominal and intramuscular fat (IMF) of Beijing-You chickens were investigated in this study. 3. TG content in abdominal fat (AF) (349.7 mg/g) was significantly higher (<i>P</i> 4. Using Agilent chicken gene-expression profiling in adipose tissues between AF and muscle (breast and thigh), certain representative genes related to fatty acid metabolism, lipoprotein catabolism and esterification reactions were significantly upregulated (<i>P</i> P 5. Genes involved in fatty acid oxidation or carbohydrate utilisation were significantly up- or downregulated (<i>P</i> P PPAR, Wnt pathway and inositol phosphate metabolism), cell junctions (focal adhesion and regulation of actin cytoskeleton) and muscle contraction. 6. Overall, higher TG levels were observed in AF tissue than in adipose tissues of breast and thigh, which could be regulated through gene expression of pathways related to lipid metabolism (PPAR, Wnt pathway and inositol phosphate metabolism), cell junctions (focal adhesion and regulation of actin cytoskeleton) and muscle contraction. These results provide clues to understanding the molecular mechanisms of TG metabolism between abdominal and IMF.

title: Supplementary Material for: Scotopic Microperimetric Assessment of Rod Function in Stargardt Disease (SMART) Study: Design and Baseline Characteristics (Report No. 1)

description: <b><i>Purpose:</i></b> To describe the study design and characteristics at first visit of participants in the longitudinal Scotopic Microperimetric Assessment of Rod Function in Stargardt Disease (SMART) study. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Scotopic microperimetry (sMP) was performed in one designated study eye in a subset of participants with molecularly proven <i>ABCA4</i>-associated Stargardt disease (STGD1) enrolled in a multicenter natural history study (ProgStar). Study visits were every 6 months over a period ranging from 6 to 24 months, and also included fundus autofluorescence (FAF). <b><i>Results:</i></b> SMART enrolled 118 participants (118 eyes). At the first visit of SMART, the mean sensitivity in mesopic microperimetry was 11.48 (±5.05; range 0.00–19.88) dB and in sMP 11.25 (±5.26; 0–19.25) dB. For FAF, all eyes had a lesion of decreased autofluorescence (mean lesion size 3.62 [±3.48; 0.10–21.46] mm<sup>2</sup>), and a total of 76 eyes (65.5%) had a lesion of definitely decreased autofluorescence with a mean lesion size of 3.46 (±3.60; 0.21–21.46) mm<sup>2</sup>. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Rod function is impaired in STGD1 and can be assessed by sMP. Testing rod function may serve as a potential outcome measure for future clinical treatment trials. This is evaluated in the SMART study.

title: An Intimate Insight on Psychopathy and a Novel Hermeneutic Psychological Science.pdf

description: <i>Besides and together with a study of the social sciences and philosophy, this author’s intuitive confidence in this hermeneutic design insights that underlies the arguments and discourse, is inspired from ‘an intimate and spontaneous idiosyncratic philosophical exercise (praxis) in the quest for the essence of meaning’, a ‘craft’ that has been nurtured continuously for nearly 25 years now (without conscious planning at the beginning nor at any time thereafter) since his discovery of ‘philosophical questioning and discourse’ at high school. An exercise that mirrors the intimate idiosyncratic exercise/praxis allowing an artist like a musician to grasp and develop memes that latter down the years enable the artist to be more or less ‘consummate with respect to the personal orientation they give to their arts’. Central to all such idiosyncratic processes is a continuous idiosyncratic memetic refinement over time of rough-cuttings, internal coherences, insights, inspirations, intuitive validations, constraining, sense-of-failing, sense-of-succeeding, confidence, mental inflections and mental projections; of course as per ability and ultimate pertinence with respect to intrinsic reality!</i>

title: An Inductive Coupler Array for In-Motion Wireless Charging of Electric Vehicles

description: An inductive power transfer (IPT) system is envisaged as the best solution to conveniently charge electric vehicles (EVs). While stationary IPT systems are becoming commercialized, significant research is being conducted to address the challenges related to dynamic IPT systems. Dynamic or in-motion IPT systems require a fully electrified roadway with embedded inductive couplers with accompanying circuitry. The large number of electronic components required, however, increases the system complexity, reducing the reliability and economic viability of dynamic IPT systems proposed to-date. This paper proposes a simple yet robust push-pull driven coupler array (PPCA), aiming to decrease the number of switches required to drive the in-road couplers. This paper is the first to report a configuration where only N+1 switches are required to independently energize N primary IPT couplers. Any number of couplers can be activated simultaneously in the array without proportionally increasing the current stress on the switches. A state-space model is developed and implemented in PLECS to investigate the efficiency and power transferred to an EV traveling over the proposed PPCA while considering the variation in the coupling and the self-inductances of the couplers. A 3.3 kW scaled prototype PPCA consisting of three primary couplers and two secondary couplers has been implemented to validate the performance of the proposed configuration.

title: Tetracaine induces apoptosis through a mitochondrion-dependent pathway in human corneal stromal cells <i>in vitro</i>

description: <b>Purpose: </b>Tetracaine is a local anesthetic widely used in ocular diagnosis and ophthalmic surgery and may lead to some adverse effects and complications at a clinical dose. To assess the cytotoxicity and molecular toxicity mechanisms of tetracaine, we used human corneal stromal (HCS) cells as an <i>in vitro</i> model to study the effects of tetracaine on HCS cells. <b>Materials and methods: </b>The cytotoxicity of tetracaine on HCS cells was investigated by examining the changes of cell growth, morphology, viability and cell cycle progressing when HCS cells were treated with tetracaine at concentrations from 10 g/L to 0.078125 g/L. To prove the hypothesis that the cytotoxicity of tetracaine on HCS cells was related with apoptosis induction, we further detected multiple changes in HCS cells, including plasma membrane (PM) permeability, phosphatidylserine (PS) orientation, genomic DNA integrality, and cell ultrastrcuture after treated with tetracaine. Furthermore, the pro-apoptotic signalling pathway induced by tetracaine was explored through detecting the activation of various caspases, the changes of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (MTP), the expression level of Bcl-2 family proteins and the amount of mitochondria-released apoptosis regulating proteins in cytoplasm. <b>Results: </b>Tetracaine at concentrations above 0.15625 g/L had a dose- and time-dependent cytotoxicity to HCS cells, which resulted cell growth inhibition, proliferation retardation, morphological abnormalities and decreased viability. Meanwhile, we found that the HCS cells treated with tetracaine had typical features associated with apoptosis, including an increase in PM permeability, PS externalization, DNA fragmentation and apoptotic body formation. Tetracaine not only resulted in caspase-3, caspase-8 and caspase-9 activation and disruption of MTP but also downregulated Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL and upregulated Bad and Bax, along with the upregulation of cytoplasmic cytochrome c (Cyt. c) and apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF). <b>Conclusions: </b>These results suggested that tetracaine-induced apoptosis might be triggered through Fas death receptors and mediated by Bcl-2 family proteins in the mitochondria-dependent pathway. Our findings identified the cytotoxicity and molecular mechanisms of tetracaine, which could provide a reference value for the safety of this medication and prospective therapeutic interventions in eye clinic.

title: Evaluating practical macrophyte control tools on small agricultural waterways in Canterbury, New Zealand

description: Excessive macrophytes can cause significant problems in agricultural waterways requiring active management. Conventional control techniques can have a range of adverse effects. We investigated several control tools in two experiments: firstly, we tested eight treatments at a small-scale (2 m × 2 m). We found intensive hand weeding, weed mat and herbicide spraying to be effective treatments, reducing macrophyte cover to &lt;5%. Hand weeding and weed mat immediately reduced cover, while dieback from herbicide took two months. Weed mat was a novel and effective control mechanism along stream banks. Secondly, we tested the impact of shading on macrophyte growth. Macrophyte growth was enhanced under partially shaded conditions, but with 80% effective shading over the entire channel, cover was reduced to 17%. Once treatments ceased, macrophytes grew back within 3–5 months. Long-term, control methods will require combinations of tools but will need to include optimal shading for the target species.
