Diallel Analysis of Diverse Maize Germplasm Lines for Resistance to Aflatoxin Accumulation

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

ABSTRACT In this study, diverse, novel maize ( Zea mays L.) germplasm from the Germplasm Enhancement of Maize (GEM) Project was screened to determine the combining ability and inheritance of ear rot resistance and resistance to aflatoxin accumulation in hybrid combinations. Nine GEM germplasm lines and six known resistant and susceptible inbred lines were selected as parents of a diallel cross that was evaluated over 2 yr at Mississippi State, MS, and 1 yr at College Station, TX. Resistant lines Mp717 and Mp494 each had negative and significant general combining ability effects, and were frequently present as parents in the hybrid combinations with the lowest aflatoxin accumulation. Of the GEM germplasm lines evaluated, GEMN‐0130 was the best source of aflatoxin resistance, with significant and negative GCA values at all three site years. The GEM lines exhibiting significant and negative GCA effects for aflatoxin accumulation in at least one site year include two GEM germplasm lines, GEMS‐0030 (2 yr) and GEMS‐0074 (1 yr), and a nonreleased GEM source derived from the tropical Cuban accession, CUBA117 (1 yr). The GEM germplasm lines significantly contributing to reduced ear rot in at least two out of three environments included CUBA117, GEMS‐0030, GEMS‐0002, and GEMN‐0130. These results demonstrate the GEM Project is a useful and untapped source of diverse germplasm for resistance to Aspergillus flavus ear rot and aflatoxin accumulation.
Evaluation of Antioxidant, Analgesic and Antidiarrheal Activities of Methanolic Extract of Litsea monopetala (roxb.) Leaves

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Antioxidant, analgesic and antidiarrheal activities of Litsea monopetala (LM) leaves extracts were investigated in order to assessment of pharmacological activities. In vitro antioxidant properties, in vivo analgesic and antidiarrheal activities were investigated in this study. Antioxidant plays a remarkable role to protect different kinds of diseases of human by inhibiting free radicals. 1, 1-diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging was considered to evaluate the antioxidant property. Analgesic and antidiarrheal activities were investigated in acetic acid induced writhing and castor oil induced antidiarrheal method by white albino mice, respectively. Methanolic extract of LM leaves has shown antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 223.22 μg/ml which was compared to the standard ascorbic acid. This extract of LM at a dose of 500 mg/kg showed statistically significantly (p<0.001) and produced 68.75% writhing inhibition of mice while standard diclofenac sodium drug has shown 76.25% inhibition. LM also produced a significant (P<0.01) reduction in the frequency of diarrhea produced by castor oil in mice compared with Loperamide (50 mg/kg) standard. This study clearly supports the medicinal value of LM`s leaves. However, further study is required to find out the active components which are responsible for these activities.
Search for doubly charged scalar bosons decaying into same-sign W boson pairs with the ATLAS detector

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

A search for doubly charged scalar bosons decaying into W boson pairs is presented. It uses a data sample from proton–proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb -1 collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. This search is guided by a model that includes an extension of the Higgs sector through a scalar triplet, leading to a rich phenomenology that includes doubly charged scalar bosons H ±±. Those bosons are produced in pairs in proton–proton collisions and decay predominantly into electroweak gauge bosons H ±± ?W ± W ±. Experimental signatures with several leptons, missing transverse energy and jets are explored. No significant deviations from the Standard Model predictions are found. The parameter space of the benchmark model is excluded at 95% confidence level for H ±± bosons with masses between 200 and 220 GeV.

Thermal and electrical energy yield analysis of a directly water cooled photovoltaic module

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

Electrical energy of photovoltaic modules drops by 0.5% for each degree increase in temperature. Direct water cooling of photovoltaic modules was found to give improved electrical and thermal yield. A prototype was put in place to analyse the field data for a period of a year. The results showed an initial high performance ratio and electrical power output. The monthly energy saving efficiency of the directly water cooled module was found to be approximately 61%. The solar utilisation of the naturally cooled photovoltaic module was found to be 8.79% and for the directly water cooled module its solar utilisation was 47.93%. Implementation of such systems on households may reduce the load from the utility company, bring about huge savings on electricity bills and help in reducing carbon emissions. <br><br><font color="red"><b> This article has been retracted.

585. COMPREHENSIVE RISK SCORE OF THE E-PASS SERVES A PROGNOSTIC INDICATOR FOR PATIENTS AFTER NEOADJUVANT THERAPY AND CURATIVE ESOPHAGEAL CANCER SURGERY

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Background Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and curative surgery have been recommended as the standard treatments for locally advanced esophageal cancer. In addition, the comprehensive risk score (CRS) of the physiological ability and surgical stress (E-PASS) scoring system, incorporating both clinical and surgical factors, has proven effective in predicting postoperative complications and mortality. However, the impact of E-PASS scoring system on the prognosis of esophageal cancer remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the comprehensive risk score of E-PASS scoring system for predicting the short- and long-term outcomes of patients treated with nCRT and esophageal cancer surgery. Methods Patients with esophageal cancer who underwent curative resection between 2010 and 2022 were retrospectively enrolled in this study. The cohort was divided into the low and high CRS groups. The CRS cutoff value was determined using the Youden index applied to overall survival (OS) curves. Prognostic value was assessed through Cox regression and Kaplan–Meier analyses. Results In total, 814 patients were enrolled, including 556 and 258 patients with low and high CRS, respectively. ROC curve analysis determined that the CRS was a highly specific and sensitive predictive tool for postoperative complication occurrence and severity (AUC=0.889 and 0.838, respectively). When the cutoff value was established using the Youden index applied to overall OS curves, multivariate analysis demonstrated that the CRS was an independent prognostic factor for OS (HR: 1.48; 95% CI 1.14–1.92, P=0.003) and recurrence-free survival (HR: 1.44; 95% CI 1.13–1.82, P=0.002), irrespective of esophageal cancer stage and tumor regression scores. Conclusion The E-PASS scoring system emerges as a visible predictor of short- and long-term outcomes in patients with esophageal cancer undergoing nCRT and curative surgery.

SH1949628.08FU

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

UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.
Reliability of Linear Measurements on a Virtual Bilateral Cleft Lip and Palate Model

Field: Dentistry (Health Sciences)

Objective: To assess the reliability and validity of measurements performed on three-dimensional virtual models of neonatal bilateral cleft lip and palate patients, compared with measurements performed on plaster cast models. Materials and Methods: Ten high-quality plaster cast models of bilateral cleft lip and palate patients were scanned with an LDI-scanner to obtain a three-dimensional virtual model. Linear measurements were performed on the plaster cast models using a digital caliper and also on the three-dimensional virtual model using Viscam RP version 2.1 software. The measurements were performed by two observers on two occasions. Results: Intraclass correlations ranging from .81 to .96 were found for all measurements except the measurement between the constructed reference point pr and reference point i (intraclass correlation = .40). A post hoc procedure in which top-view screen prints of the three-dimensional virtual model were used to perform the measurement between reference points pr and i demonstrated an intraclass coefficient of .90. Conclusions: Three-dimensional virtual models obtained by laser scanning neonatal cast models of bilateral cleft lip and palate patients can be used reliably and validly to perform linear measurements between existing reference points on the surface of the model using Viscam RP version 2.1 software. Measurements between reference points constructed outside the surface of the model cannot be validly performed on the three-dimensional virtual model with the software used in this study. For these measurements, top-view screen prints of the three-dimensional virtual model can be used.

Visualization of heart and kidneys in animals with ultrashort-lived 82Rb and the positron scintillation camera.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Summary Rubidium-82 decays by positron emission with a half-life of 75 sec and is the daughter of 25-day 82Sr. The 82Rb can be rapidly eluted from the parent by passing ammonium acetate solution or sodium chloride solution through a suitable ion-exchange column. In dogs and rabbits the heart is strongly labeled by infusing the eluted isotope into a vein for about 1 min, waiting for 2 min and then starting an exposure with the positron camera that lasts until the isotope has essentially decayed. A relatively high uptake is obtained in heart muscle compared with skeletal muscle, and the positron camera yields an excellent image of the heart. There is little concentration of the isotope in any other organs except the kidneys which also exhibit a high uptake of the isotope.

The Prevalence, Causes, and Management Strategies for Stress Among Health-Care Professionals of Delhi-National Capital Region

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background: Stress at workplace has an adverse impact not only on the employees in terms of health, well being, and job dissatisfaction, but also affects the organization in terms of quality of output, absenteeism, and attrition which ultimately has detrimental financial implications. Health care professionals comprise of an important group that are majorly affected by workplace stress because of the nature of their work environment. Methods: The current study was undertaken to ascertain the presence of self perceived stress among healthcare workers in multispecialty hospitals of the National Capital Region of Delhi and to find the expected remedial measures that could be implemented to mitigate stress. In a questionnaire based study, a self administered questionnaire was used to assess stress and related factors using convenience-sampling technique. The response data were extracted and analyzed using Microsoft Excel, which was used for data analysis, tabulation, and graphical presentation. Results: Total 110 responses were received. Three quarter of the respondents identified significant stress in their life, with the highest stress reported by nursing staff at 98%, doctors at 67%, and administrative staff at 56%. The study shows a significant association of self reported stress with age of the respondents (P < 0.001). Respondents among age group of 15–25 years reported the highest prevalence of stress (P < 0.001). Women reported a higher level of stress than men, (P < 0.001), and nurses reported the highest level of stress followed by doctors and then administrative staff. Different methods to relieve stress were also discussed and it was found that two thirds (67%) of our study respondents would like to meditate at work. Conclusion: Stress is common among all categories of healthcare workers. Meditation can be a safe, effective, and feasible modality which can be offered at the workplace to safeguard the mental health of the health care workers and reduce their levels of stress.
Assessing the Anchoring of Inflation Expectations

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

This paper proposes an ESTAR modeling framework to analyze the anchoring of inflation expectations. Anchoring criteria are empirical estimates of a market implied inflation target as well as the strength of the anchor that holds expectations at the target. Results from daily financial market expectations in the United States, European Monetary Union, United Kingdom and Sweden indicate: First, shorter-term expectations are better anchored than longer-term expectations. Second, expectations are best anchored in the EU, followed by US, Sweden and UK. Third, during the crisis market implied targets mostly decline while the strength of the anchor remains mostly unaffected.

Measurement Indicators of Age-Friendly Communities: Findings From the AARP Age-Friendly Community Survey

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract Cities and counties worldwide have adopted the concept of “age-friendly communities” to promote the well-being of older adults. An age-friendly community is a place that provides a safe and affordable built environment and a social environment that encourages older adults’ participation. A major limitation in this field is the lack of valid and reliable measures of age-friendly communities. This study used data from the AARP 2016 Age-Friendly Community Surveys (N=3,652 adults ages 65 and older). This study included 57 indicators of age-friendliness (e.g., housing, transportation, public space, civic engagement, volunteering, community, and health services); socio-demographic characteristics; and health-related characteristics. We randomly split the sample into two subsamples for confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) (n=1,682) and structural equation modeling (SEM) (n=1,682). The CFA resulted in a three-factor structure to measure age-friendly communities: built environment, transportation, and social environment. Model fit indices were acceptable (χ²(44)=14204.09; p&lt;.001; RMSEA=.067; CFI=.912; TLI=.909; SRMR=.05). Internal reliability of the three-factor structure was excellent ranging from .93 to .96. The SEM model showed that older adults living in a community with a greater built environment (β=.119; p=.001) and the social environment (β=.199; p&lt;.001) had higher levels of physical health, after adjusting for all other variables. The findings highlight that the measures of age-friendly communities are reliable and valid. Practitioners and policymakers should work on improving both the built and the social environment to promote the well-being of older adults. The findings also suggested that researchers can use the measures as an evaluation tool for an age-friendly community initiative.
