DNA Repair Gene Polymorphisms in Relation to Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Survival

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the DNA repair genes are suspected to be related to the survival of lung cancer patients due to their possible influence on DNA repair capacity (DRC). However, the study results are inconsistent. Methods: A follow-up study of 610 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients was conducted to investigate genetic polymorphisms associated with the DNA repair genes in relation to NSCLC survival; 6 SNPs were genotyped, including XRCC1 (rs25487 G>A), hOGG1 (rs1052133 C>G), MUTYH (rs3219489 G>C), XPA (rs1800975 G>A), ERCC2 (rs1799793 G>A) and XRCC3 (rs861539 C>T). Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were performed. SNP-SNP interaction was also examined using the survival tree analysis. Results: Advanced disease stage and older age at diagnosis were associated with poor prognosis of NSCLC. Patients with the variant ‘G' allele of hOGG1 rs1052133 had poor overall survival compared with those with the homozygous wild ‘CC' genotype, especially in female patients, adenocarcinoma histology, early stage, light smokers and without family history of cancer. For never smoking female lung cancer patients, individuals carrying homozygous variant ‘AA' genotype of XPA had shorter survival time compared to those with wild ‘G' alleles. Furthermore, females carrying homozygous variant XPA and hOGG1 genotypes simultaneously had 2.78-fold increased risk for death. Among all 6 polymorphisms, the homozygous variant ‘AA' of XPA carriers had poor prognosis compared to the carriers of wild ‘G' alleles of XPA together with other base excision repair (BER) polymorphisms. Conclusions: Besides disease stage and age, the study found DNA repair gene polymorphisms were associated with lung cancer survival.
[3H]ouabain binding to cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

The number of Na+ pump units (Bmax) and the equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) for ouabain as well as parameters of K+ binding to the Na+ pump were examined in in vitro-grown vascular smooth muscle cells ( VSMC ) derived from Sprague-Dawley rats. The technique to measure these variables utilizes analyses of [3H]ouabain displacement from its VSMC receptors by nonlabeled ouabain and K+. The mean values for Bmax and Kd in the cultured VSMCs were 1.95 X 10(5) receptor sites per single VSMC and 2.68 X 10(-6) M, respectively. The equilibrium dissociation constant for K+ (Ki) was 0.92 mM. K+ binding to the cultured VSMCs demonstrated positive cooperativity with a Hill coefficient (n) of 1.78.
Change in Hepatitis B Virus Large Surface Antigen Variant Prevalence 13 Years after Implementation of a Universal Vaccination Program in China

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A nationwide hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination program was implemented in China starting in 1992. To study the change in HBV variant prevalence with massive immunization, large HBV surface protein (LHBs) genes from HBV surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive sera were amplified and sequenced. The prevalences of LHBs mutants were compared between the 1992 and 2005 surveys in child and adult groups. The prevalence of “α” determinant mutants in the children increased from 6.5% in 1992 to 14.8% in 2005, where the G145R mutant occurred most frequently. In contrast, mutation frequencies showed little difference between 1992 (9.4%) and 2005 (9.9%) in adults. Moreover, compared to the 1992 survey, the child group surface (S) protein mutation frequency specifically increased (P = 0.005) in the 2005 survey, but the pre-S region mutation frequency did not show a significant difference (P > 0.05). However, the mutation frequency in the adult group increased in both the pre-S and S regions. Furthermore, the frequencies of the disease-related pre-S2 deletion and start codon mutations were significantly higher in the adult groups than in the child groups in both the 1992 and 2005 surveys (P < 0.01). Massive immunization enhances the HBV S protein mutation; the prevalence of LHBs mutants, particularly disease-related mutants, tends to increase with patient age.

Apolipoprotein E Allelic Frequency Altered in Women with Early-onset Breast Cancer.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Among women, the most prevalent type of cancer is breast cancer, affecting 1 out of every 8 women in the United States; in Puerto Rico, 70 out of every 100,000 will develop some type of breast cancer. Therefore, a better understand of the potential risk factors for breast cancer could lead to the development of early detection tools. A gene that has been proposed as a risk factor in several populations around the world is Apolipoprotein E (apoE). ApoE functions as a mechanism of transport for lipoproteins and cholesterol throughout the body, with 3 main isoforms present in humans (apoE2, apoE3, and apoE4). Whether or not apoE4 is a risk factor for breast cancer remains controversial. Previous studies have either included test subjects of all ages (20-80) or have focused on late-onset (after age 50) breast cancer; none has concentrated specifically on early-onset (aged 50 and younger) breast cancer. The objectives of this study was to examine (in a Puerto Rican population) the differences in the relative frequency of occurrence of apoE4 in non-breast cancer versus breast cancer patients and to examine, as well, the potential differences of same in early- versus late-onset patients. We found an increased frequency of apoE4 (odds ratio 2.15) only in early-onset breast cancer survivors, which is similar to the findings of those studies that combined or adjusted for age as well as for an association between apoE4 and decreased tumor size. ApoE is also a potential risk factor for long-term cognitive effects after chemotherapy and affects response to hormone replacement. Our data supports the theory that knowing the apoE genotype of women who are at risk of developing breast cancer may be beneficial, as such knowledge would aid in the prediction of tumor size and the development of treatment regimens.
The Future of Technology Transfer in the Global Village

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

One of the most serious challenges facing international legal institutions in the present era of globalisation is the adoption of adequate written laws in the form of treaties, conventions, and codes that address the issues faced by the international community. There have been advances in many areas, mostly in Public International Law. However, when it comes to achieving agreement in economic and commercial issues, the record of the International community is not as positive. Many areas of the law require international conventions or treaties to provide a united front to common problems faced by most countries. Such is the case in areas of competition law, international trade, electronic commerce and intellectual property. One of the areas in desperate need of international regulation is that of creating codes of conduct for the same multinational corporations that have triggered the globalisation process. The present essay will be centred on the concept of technology transfer and on how technology is owned and transferred. Then, the efforts by the United Nations to achieve an agreement on codes of conduct for the transfer of technology will be discussed. Finally, some options for the future of Technology Transfer will be considered.
Water Use Efficiency of Irrigated and Rainfed Crops of Great Importance in Serbia

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

As natural water supply rarely meets crop water requirements, irrigation has a great role in yield assurance in quantity and quantity. Irrigation could be economically justified if water use efficiency (WUE) is fulfilled. Therefore, the aim of this work was to determine WUE of irrigated and rainfed crops grown in Serbia. The analysis of crop water consumption and obtained yield was based on data collected from various scientific publications. Irrigation effect differed by years, but not strictly due to rainfall amount and occurrence. The yield of some crops strongly depends on available soil moisture such as alfalfa, fodder sorghum, maize and soybean with clear relationship, whereas of some crops such relation cannot be found. It indicates that WUE also depends on some other factors, such as extreme temperatures, frost, hail, nutrient supply and plant health, as well.
Concentration study of M-estimators using the influence function

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

We present a new finite-sample analysis of M-estimators of locations in $\mathbb{R}^d$ using the tool of the influence function. In particular, we show that the deviations of an M-estimator can be controlled thanks to its influence function (or its score function) and then, we use concentration inequality on M-estimators to investigate the robust estimation of the mean in high dimension in a corrupted setting (adversarial corruption setting) for bounded and unbounded score functions. For a sample of size $n$ and covariance matrix $Σ$, we attain the minimax speed $\sqrt{Tr(Σ)/n}+\sqrt{\|Σ\|_{op}\log(1/δ)/n}$ with probability larger than $1-δ$ in a heavy-tailed setting. One of the major advantages of our approach compared to others recently proposed is that our estimator is tractable and fast to compute even in very high dimension with a complexity of $O(nd\log(Tr(Σ)))$ where $n$ is the sample size and $Σ$ is the covariance matrix of the inliers. In practice, the code that we make available for this article proves to be very fast.

In this report, the film is uniquely placed within a perceptual media effects framework (predominantly citing Davison 1983, Neuwirth and Frederick 2002, and Leone, Peek, and Bissell 2006) so as to identify first, second, and third-person effects representations within its text. Consisting of both a written textual analysis as well as an audio supplement, the report identifies three subjects within The Truman Show: Truman, participants of the film’s reality show, and said program’s viewing audience.\nUltimately, the report’s written component provides scenic evidence arguing that Truman is representative of second-person effects traits, the reality show’s participants display varied second and third-person traits, and the program’s viewing audience represents second-person effects. Lyrically, the audio supplement is primarily told from Truman’s perspective and is meant to be a reflexive piece that documents Truman’s transition from a second-person to a first-person effect representative.
Hollow Fiber Hemodialyzers for Partial Respiratory Support

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Acute respiratory failure is still characterized by a high mortal ity rate, in spite of the development of ingenious treatment modalities involv ing mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal respiratory support. The coex istence of renal failure further complicates the outlook for respiratory failure patients. In this paper the development of the blood oxygenator and current aspects of its application are described. The concept of applying dialysis membranes for partial respiratory support is presented. An experimental animal model which was performed with A-V cannulation using dialysis membranes for partial respiratory support and simultaneous dialysis is analyzed. It is concluded that dialysis membranes are efficient for blood gas exchange and that their use in the management of the above-mentioned types of critically ill patients is promising.
Estimating cultural heritage sites effect on food and accommodations with synthetic controls

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has developed a list of over 1000 cultural and world heritage sites. We seek to estimate a casual impact on food and accommodations industries that two of these sites influence for their surrounding region. This paper is the first to apply a synthetic control framework to two cultural heritage sites; Poverty Point and the San Antonio Missions. Using food and accommodations data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics from 2008 to 2020, we find a statistically significant positive effect from the accreditation of Poverty Point on tourism establishments in West Carroll Parish, but no similarly significant effect from the San Antonio Missions.
Study on the Influence of Key Structure Parameters of Conical Insulator on AC and DC Electric Field Distribution

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In AC and DC power system, the conical insulator is an important component in gas insulated switchgear (GIS) or gas insulated transmission line (GIL) equipment. The flashover phenomenon formed on the surface of the conical insulator is the key factor determining the insulation strength of GIS/GIL equipment. Studying the influence of the structural parameters of the conical insulator on the electric field distribution along the surface under the AC and DC voltage is of great significance for increasing the flashover voltage of the insulator and improving the insulation reliability of the equipment. In this paper, the key structural parameters of the conical insulator (inclination angle and fillet radius) are taken as the research object. The electrostatic equation is used to calculate the AC electric field distribution along the surface under different structural parameters. Consider the generation, migration, diffusion, recombination of free ions in gas, and the nonlinear relationship between gas current density and electric field strength. A numerical model for the charge transport and accumulation in DC GIS/GIL is established, and the DC electric field distribution along surface under different structural parameters is calculated. According to the calculation results, the influence laws of the inclination angle and fillet radius of the conical insulator on the AC and DC electric field along the surface are obtained, and the difference of the AC and DC electric field distribution along surface is compared. The results show that under the AC voltage, the electric field strength along the surface increases as the inclination angle increases, and decreases as the fillet radius increases; Under the DC voltage, the electric field strength along the surface has different distribution patterns near the high voltage conductor and the grounding shell: the electric field strength near the high voltage conductor decreases as the increase of the inclination angle, and the electric field strength near the ground shell increases as the increase of the inclination angle; Under the DC electric field, the polarity of the accumulated charge on both sides of the conical insulator is different, the concave surface accumulates a negative charge, the convex surface accumulates a positive charge, and the concave negative charge density is 1.6 times the convex positive charge density. The surface average charge density increases as the inclination angle increases and decreases as the fillet radius increases. The conclusion of this study has reference value for guiding the design optimization of GIS/GIL conical insulator structure.
Effect of sward surface height on the performance of ewes and Iambs continuously grazed on grass/clover and nitrogen‐fertilized grass swards

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract In three successive years, sward height was maintained at 3, 5, 7 or 9 cm on grass swards receiving a total of 300 kg N ha −1 in six equal monthly dressings from April, and on grass/clover swards receiving 50 kg N ha −1 as a single dressing in early spring. From turnout in April until weaning in July, 64 ewes and their lambs (mean litter size 1·5) were continuously grazed at the four sward surface heights on the two sward types. White clover content of grass/clover swards remained low throughout the experiment ranging from 0·2 to 7·4% of the herbage mass. During the first two years, lamb gains averaged over sward types were 204, 260, 285 and 308 g d −1 up to weaning, while in the third year gains were 238, 296, 296 and 260 g d −1 on 3, 5, 7 and 9 cm swards respectively. Ewes lost live weight on 3 cm swards but apart from this sward height had little effect on performance. During the autumn, weaned lambs gained — 27, 87, 147 and 167 g d −1 on 3, 5, 7 and 9 cm swards respectively. Sward type had only a small effect on the performance of lambs up to weaning but in the autumn, mean gains of weaned lambs were lower on grass/N swards (73 g d −1 ) than on grass/clover swards (115 g d −1 ). Relative to 3 cm swards, carrying capacities of 5, 7 and 9 cm swards were 0·76, 0·57 and 0·52 respectively from turnout to weaning and 0·66, 0·52 and 0·44 respectively during autumn. Grass/clover swards carried 0·67 of the ewes carried by grass/N swards from turnout to weaning and 0·51 of the live weight carried by grass/N swards during autumn. The reaction of the two sward types to sward height did not appear to differ but in the third year there was evidence of a reduction in white clover content when swards were grazed at 9 cm. The data suggest that lamb growth rates will increase as sward height increases up to 9 cm and the evidence for this was stronger with weaned lambs in autumn than with suckling lambs in spring.
Regional cerebral oxygenation during cardiopulmonary bypass

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A significant number of patients suffer transient neuropsychological dysfunction after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Recent studies have implicated reduced levels of O 2 supply/demand ratio during the rewarming phase of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Using a near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) system that permits continuous noninvasive monitoring of regional cerebral O 2 saturation (rSO 2 ), we investigated rSO 2 during CPB. Following Institution Review Board approval and informed consent, 10 patients undergoing elective CABG were studied. Nonpulsatile CPB with a membrane oxygenator, haemodilution and alpha-stat pH management was used. The NIRS system consisting of two low-power laser diode sources (780 nm and 810 nm) with a photodetector placed on the frontal cortex was used to measure continuously haemoglobin, oxyhaemoglobin and cerebral blood volume. Continuous rSO 2 measurements were obtained before, during moderate hypothermia, and during the rewarming phase of CPB. A rSO 2 < 50% was defined as abnormal. Onset of rSO 2 < 50% was at 32°C, and the highest incidence occurred during the late stages of rewarming (35-37°C). On rewarming from hypothermic CPB, 70% of our patients sustained a rSO 2 < 50% for an average total duration of 9.3 minutes, primarily at the end of the rewarming period. This suggests a transient global imbalance in cerebral O 2 supply and demand in a large percentage of patients during the rewarming phase of CPB. However, it has not been determined how long a rSO 2 < 50% can be permitted before neuropsychological dysfunction is induced. Additional studies correlating psychometric testing with rSO 2 measurements should prove useful in detecting episodes of impaired cerebral oxygenation, and help define rewarming protocols.
Treatment of acute myelocytic leukemia with interleukin-6 Pseudomonas exotoxin fusion protein in a rat leukemia model.

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

We studied the applicability of interleukin-6 Pseudomonas exotoxin fusion protein (IL-6PE4E) for treatment of acute myelocytic leukemia (AML). Leukemic cells from five out of 10 AML patients studied expressed IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) and proliferation in vitro was inhibited in four of these cases. The potential of this approach in vivo was tested in a pre-clinical model for AML; the Brown Norway acute myelocytic leukemia (BNML). To obtain IL-6R expression levels on BNML cells comparable to the numbers expressed on human AML, human IL-6R gene transfectants of the BNML sub-line LT12 (LT12/IL-6R) were generated. IL-6PE4E is cytotoxic in vitro to LT12/IL-6R expressing 1400 high affinity IL-6R per cell with 50% inhibition of DNA synthesis at 1 ng/ml. In vivo treatment of leukemic rats carrying LT12/IL-6R leukemia indicated that the maximal tolerated dose of IL-6PE4E was 275 +/- 25 microg/kg/day, when continuously administered for 7 days and resulted in a 90% reduction in leukemic cell load. At this dose level of IL-6PE4E no reduction of normal hemopoietic progenitors was seen in non-leukemic rats. At higher dose levels (350-1050 microg/kg/day) severe systemic toxicity was encountered. On the basis of these pre-clinical studies the feasibility of growth factor-toxins for selective in vivo targeting to AML cells is evaluated.
Formula selection for intraocular power calculation using support vector machines and self-organizing maps

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In this paper, methods of selecting formulas to calculate intraocular lens (IOL) power for a cataract patient are presented, using support vector machines (SVM's) and self-organizing maps (SOM's). Each of training data has measured values associated with axial length and corneal refractive power as element values. Three IOL power formulas have variables into which these values are substituted. The discrimination model constructed by SVM learning consists of three coordinate spaces having two regions corresponding to two formulas out of three. Each of the spaces provides a potential solution. The formula to be used for some patient is specified by a majority of the potential solutions. The SOM-based scheme determines the formula suitable to some patient, observing the label attached to the winner neuron for the presented data having the above element values associated with the patient. The experimental results finally establish that the proposed SVM-based scheme especially works well to select the formula.
