Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

A one and half-year-old tom cat was presented to University Veterinary Hospital, Kokkalai, Thrissur, Kerala with anorexia, jaundice and weakness.The cat had fever and the skin and mucous membranes were icteric.Peripheral blood smear examination revealed epierythrocytic organisms suggestive of Mycoplasma spp.Haematobiochemical examination revealed severe anemia, thrombocytopenia and marked hyperbilirubinaemia.Feline panleukopenia and Feline infectious peritonitis were ruled out by rapid immunochromatographic test kits.The results of microscopic agglutination test (MAT) and lipl32 gene specific PCR were also negative, thus ruling out leptospirosis.The case was tentatively diagnosed as feline mycoplasmosis.The cat responded to medical therapy with doxycycline, ursodeoxycholic acid, haematinics and supportive therapy.
Prediction of Repair Work Duration for Gas Transport Systems Based on Small Data Samples

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Prediction of the duration of a repair and maintenance project of a gas transport system is an important part of planning activities. There exist numerous sources of uncertainties that may result in time overruns possibly leading to multiple negative consequences. Our experience in planning this work suggests that accepting the stochastic nature of the project duration is a constructive step towards the preparedness to contingencies and defining penalties for repair companies. To support this approach, one needs to construct probability distributions of the durations of the projects. To address the issue of the scarcity of observed data, we suggest using a bootstrap resampling procedure. Gram-Charlier functions and order statistics are employed to approximate the distributions. It is demonstrated how to derive them for a separate repair project and a larger project consisting of a number of concurrently running subprojects. Following this, guidance is provided on how to decide about what duration should define the deadline for completion of the whole work. A simple example is provided.

Studies on the Conformational Properties of the High‐Mobility‐Group Chromosomal Protein HMG 17 and Its Interaction with DNA

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

The conformation of the non‐histone chromatin protein, HMG 17, has been studied using circular dichroism, infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies, and by small‐angle scattering. The results show that in free solution this protein has little or no secondary or tertiary structure in contrast to the other high‐mobility‐group proteins, HMG 1 and 2, which exhibit highly ordered structures. Protein HMG 17 binds to calf thymus DNA in an ionic‐dependent manner, precipitating the DNA at high protein/DNA ratio. The nuclear magnetic resonance data suggest that the principle DNA‐binding segment of HMG 17 is that between about residues 15 and 40.
The effects of decoupling on land allocation

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract\n The purpose of this article is to study the impact of agricultural policy decoupling on land allocation decisions. Our analysis contributes to the literature by formally assessing the effects of decoupling on farms? crop mix and on the decision to set land aside. The analysis is undertaken within the framework of the model of production under uncertainty developed by Just and Zilberman (1986). Our empirical application focuses on a sample of Kansas farms observed from 1998 to 2001. Results show that US agricultural policy decoupling has resulted in a shift in land use away from program crops towards non-program commodities offering higher expected profits and idle land.

Update on non-invasive imaging techniques in early diagnosis of non-melanoma skin cancer.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

duplicated studies, single case report, and papers with language other than English New and old literature about early diagnosis of NMSC through non-invasive imaging techniques were analyzed. The role and the diagnostic accuracy of dermoscopy, RCM and OCT for the diagnosis of NMSC were reported according to the data given by literature. The development of non-invasive diagnostic devices (especially dermoscopy, RCM and OCT) allows tissue imaging in-vivo contributing to a more accurate diagnosis of skin cancer, sparing time for the patient and costs for the public health system.
Coactivators and Corepressors

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

At the vast majority of eukaryotic promoters, transcription is mediated by RNA polymerase II (RNA pol II). Activated transcription at these promoters is believed to require assembly of a transcriptional preinitiation complex, comprising general transcription factors (GTFs) such as TFIIB, TFIID, a multicomponent complex composed of TATA binding protein (TBP) and the TBP-associated factors (TAF ii s), as well as RNA pol II itself. In many cases, the net rate of assembly of such complexes is enhanced by transcription factors that bind specific recognition sequences within promoters. Functional interactions between activated transcription factors and general transcription factors are thought to be mediated by coactivators, which may be broadly defined as molecules recruited by transcription factors to enhance their transcriptional activity. Within this definition lies a wide range of functions that together are required for efficient activation by transcription factors.
Dilemmas in the Choice of Adequate Therapeutic Treatment in Patients with Acute Pulmonary Embolism—From Modern Recommendations to Clinical Application

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Pulmonary thromboembolism is a very common cardiovascular disease, with a high mortality rate. Despite the clear guidelines, this disease still represents a great challenge both in diagnosis and treatment. The heterogeneous clinical picture, often without pathognomonic signs and symptoms, represents a huge differential diagnostic problem even for experienced doctors. The decisions surrounding this therapeutic regimen also represent a major dilemma in the group of patients who are hemodynamically stable at initial presentation and have signs of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction proven by echocardiography and positive biomarker values (pulmonary embolism of intermediate–high risk). Studies have shown conflicting results about the benefit of using fibrinolytic therapy in this group of patients until hemodynamic decompensation, due to the risk of major bleeding. The latest recommendations give preference to new oral anticoagulants (NOACs) compared to vitamin K antagonists (VKA), except for certain categories of patients (patients with antiphospholipid syndrome, mechanical valves, pregnancy). When using oral anticoagulant therapy, special attention should be paid to drug–drug interactions, which can lead to many complications, even to the death of the patient. Special population groups such as pregnant women, obese patients, patients with antiphospholipid syndrome and the incidence of cancer represent a great therapeutic challenge in the application of anticoagulant therapy. In these patients, not only must the effectiveness of the drugs be taken into account, but great attention must be paid to their safety and possible side effects, which is why a multidisciplinary approach is emphasized in order to provide the best therapeutic option.
Work in Progress: Developing an Online Textbook and Research Tool for Freshman Engineering Design

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This paper explores the development of and pilot study done on an online textbook and research tool, based on the book, "how to model it", by Starfield, Smith and Bleloch. In many engineering design texts, the solution(s) to design problems are provided in the pages following the proposed problem. With this online system, students are able to read only a portion of the text, and then must complete one or more tasks for which they submit a response to the system. This approach forces the students to begin practicing the engineering design process, rather than simply reading about someone else's design process. As a research tool, the computerized method of data gathering addresses the issue of increasing sampling frequency without much larger investment in research time, as no transcription is required. The small pilot study showed students' responses included data on their design process thinking as well as their proposed solution to the problems
Ultrastructural organisation of HCV from the bloodstream of infected patients revealed by electron microscopy after specific immunocapture

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

Objective HCV particles are associated with very low-density lipoprotein components in chronically infected patients. These hybrid particles, or ‘lipo-viro particles’ (LVPs), are rich in triglycerides, and contain the viral RNA, the capsid protein, E1E2 envelope glycoproteins and apolipoproteins B and E. However, their specific ultrastructural organisation has yet to be determined. We developed a strategy for the preparation of any viral sample that preserves the native structure of the LVPs, facilitating their precise morphological characterisation. Design Using a strategy based on the direct specific immunocapture of particles on transmission electron microscopy (TEM) grids, we characterised the precise morphology of the viral particle by TEM. Results The LVP consists of a broad nucleocapsid surrounding an electron-dense centre, presumably containing the HCV genome. The nucleocapsid is surrounded by an irregular, detergent-sensitive crescent probably composed of lipids. Lipid content may determine particle size. These particles carry HCV E1E2, ApoB and ApoE, as shown in our immuno-EM analysis. Our results also suggest that these putative LVPs circulate in the serum of patients as part of a mixed population, including lipoprotein-like particles and complete viral particles. Conclusions Twenty-five years after the discovery of HCV, this study finally provides information about the precise morphological organisation of viral particles. It is truly remarkable that our TEM images fully confirm the ultrastructure of LVPs predicted by several authors, almost exclusively from the results of molecular biology studies.
Development of the Late Proterozoic to Mid‐Paleozoic, intracratonic Amadeus Basin in central Australia: A key to understanding tectonic forces in plate interiors

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

The intracratonic Amadeus Basin in central Australia is a complex, composite basin covering 17,000 km², with at least nine distinct episodes of evolution between 900 and 300 Ma. These have been identified in neighboring central Australian basins and are characterized by intervals of renewed subsidence followed by intervals of erosion and changes in basin shape. Several unconformities separating the tectonostratigraphic sequences represent periods of mild regional uplifts and correlate with major episodes of compressive tectonism at the evolving margin of the early Australian plate. In the absence of direct geological evidence for thermal events in the Amadeus Basin after the initial period of subsidence ended, possibly at about 800 Ma, the correlations found between events in the Amadeus Basin, those in the neighboring interconnected basins, and tectonic events at the continental or plate margins emphasize that regional horizontal stress fields contribute significantly to primary basin forming mechanisms. This suggests that stresses generated at continental or plate margins may propagate to the plate interior with the lithosphere acting as a stress guide. Throughout the history of the Amadeus Basin both periods when compressional stresses were dominant and when extensional tectonics controlled subsidence can be identified. There were also transitional periods when neither compression nor extension dominated, so that other processes masked the effects of weak horizontal stresses. The most recent compressional thrust belt concentrated at the northern margin between 300 and 400 Ma and has partly obscured the record of earlier basin shape and size.
A Hierarchical Game Approach to WSP Selection and Bandwidth Allocation in Multi-Tier HCNs

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In this work, the inter-linked problems of bandwidth allocation for wireless service providers (WSPs) and WSP selection for users in heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) are addressed by employing a multi-hierarchical game framework. Wherein, while the interaction between users are modelled using evolutionary game theory, the interactions between competing WSP's are modelled as a non-cooperative spectrum bandwidth allocation game (N-BAG). Moreover, the interaction between the WSPs and users is modelled as a multi- leader multi-follower Stackelberg game. After that, for the formulated evolutionary game, the existence and uniqueness of the evolutionary equilibrium (EE) was investigated. Conditioned on the obtained EE, the existence of a Nash equilibrium (NE) for the proposed N-BAG has been further proven and an offline algorithm to achieve the equilibrium state was proposed. Finally, simulation results verify the validity of our analysis and demonstrate that a unique NE would be achieved by the HCNs adopting the developed algorithm.

Variations in the Use of Chemotherapy for Elderly Patients With Advanced Ovarian Cancer: A Population-Based Study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Despite its proven efficacy in treating ovarian cancer, chemotherapy seems to be used less among patients over age 65, especially those who are nonwhite and/or in the oldest age groups. Further research is needed to elucidate to what degree this represents appropriate clinical judgment and to what degree other factors, such as patient choice, play a role.
The Electrocardiogram in Nonsystemic Ventricular Pacing in a Patient with Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries and Dextrocardia

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) has a high incidence of dextrocardia and complete heart block. We describe a 34 year-old male with CCTGA, dextrocardia, and third degree atrioventricular block status-post dual chamber pacemaker that presented with acute heart failure syndrome. Cardiac CT Angiography confirmed CCTGA with situs solitus and dextrocardia. EKG with standard frontal leads showed a normal P wave axis and right-sided precordial leads showed a right bundle branch block pattern. With situs solitus there is a normal P wave axis on standard frontal leads. With nonsystemic ventricular pacing in CCTGA with dextrocardia left- and right-sided precordial leads show a left bundle branch block pattern and right bundle branch block pattern respectively. This case highlights electrocardiographic patterns seen with dextrocardia and morphologic reversal of ventricles.
Drug-Loaded Halloysite Nanotube-Reinforced Electrospun Alginate-Based Nanofibrous Scaffolds with Sustained Antimicrobial Protection

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Halloysite nanotube (HNT)-reinforced alginate-based nanofibrous scaffolds were successfully fabricated by electrospinning to mimic the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) structure which is beneficial for tissue regeneration. An antiseptic drug, cephalexin (CEF)-loaded HNT, was incorporated into the alginate-based matrix to obtain sustained antimicrobial protection and robust mechanical properties, the key criteria for tissue engineering applications. Electron microscopic imaging and drug release studies revealed that CEF had penetrated into the lumen space of the HNT and also deposited on the outer walls, with a total loading capacity of 30 wt %. Moreover, the diameter of alginate-based nanofibers of the scaffolds ranged from 40 to 522 nm with well-aligned HNTs, resulting in superior mechanical properties. For instance, the addition of 5% (w/w) HNT improved the tensile strength (σ) and elastic modulus by 3-fold and 2-fold, respectively, compared to those of the alginate-based scaffolds without HNT. The fabricated scaffolds exhibited remarkable antimicrobial properties against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, and the cytotoxicity studies confirmed the nontoxicity of the fabricated scaffolds. Drug release kinetics showed that CEF inside HNTs diffuses within 24 h and that the diffusion of the drug is delayed by 7 days once the CEF-loaded HNTs are incorporated into the alginate-based nanofibers. These fabricated alginate-based electrospun scaffolds with enhanced mechanical properties and sustained antimicrobial protection hold great potential to be used as artificial ECM scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.
Lobular carcinoma of the breast.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Lobular carcinoma of the breast, both the in situ and the infiltrating type, is discussed on the basis of three observations. Mammography may be useful, although if often leads to the diagnosis of mastopathy. In cases of in situ lobular carcinoma, ablation of the breast constitutes an adequate therapy. The adequacy of subcutaneous removal of the mammary parenchyma is doubtful. In infiltrating lobular carcinoma, radical mastectomy by Halsted's or Patey's method is the treatment of choice. In view of the frequent bilaterality of the condition, an ample elective biopsy of the identical quadrant of the contralateral breast should be performed in every case.
Effect of sowing methods on the productivity of catch crops and soil nitrogen leaching

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The field experiment was carried out at the Lithuanian Institute of Agriculture's Joniskelis Experimental Station in clay loam Cambisol from 2003-2005 to identifity the most effective sowing method of catch crops: red clover(Trifolium pratense L.), mixture of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) and Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lamk.), and white mustard (Sinapis alba L.) in combination with different straw incorporation methods during the post-harvest period, to control mineral nitrogen content and nitrate leaching. The largest amount of aboveground mass 2.55 t ha -1 of dry matter was produced by undersown red clover with a longer growing season. The largest aboveground mass of aftercrop white mustard was formed in the plots of the treatments in which the seed was sown into stubble-broken soil or direct-sown into the stubble (2.43 and 2.53 t ha -1 of dry matter, respectively). Undersown legume crops during the post-harvest period produced the largest reduction in mineral nitrogen in the soil: red clover - 14.4%, white clover and Italian ryegrass mixture - 16.6%, compared with the treatment without catch crops. After incorporating cereal stubble shallowly at 10-12 cm by stubble-breaker, the contents of mineral nitrogen declined 5.9%, compared with that in the treatment with unbroken stubble. However, after incorporating by a stubble- breaker not only stubble but also straw, and having applied nitrogen fertilizer (N 45 ) for its mineralization, the content of mineral nitrogen increased by 14.9%, compared with the treatment where the plots were stubble-broken without straw. While incorporating straw with the addition of mineral nitrogen fertilizer, 9.5% lower N min, content in the soil was found in the treatment where catch crop white mustard was sown as the post-crop. In spring, higher contents of N min in the soil and filtration water were found in the treatments in which nitrogen-rich biomass of legume crops had been incorporated in the autumn. With simultaneous incorporation of straw, nitrate nitrogen content in the soil filtration water declined (9.8%).
