Effect of dried bakery powder with and without yeast in the diet on some productive traits of broilers Ross 308.

This experiment was conducted to find out the effect of replacing two levels of dried bakery with and without yeast instead of the wheat and barley on the productive performance of Ross 308 broilers. At the poultry field, for the research station, College of Agriculture and the Marshes, Thi Qar University, from 11/8/2020 to 12/12/2020, using 270 unsexed one-day-old broiler chicks, were randomly distributed over five experimental treatments and three replicates (18 birds/replicate). The treatments were as follows: T1: control treatment without addition, T2 and T3 added 10 and 20% dried bakery powder without yeast, T4 and T5 added 10 and 20% dried bakery powder with 0.04% yeast. The results of the study indicated that there was a significant (P≤0.05) improvement in the studied productive traits (Body weight, weight gain, feed intake, food conversion factor, mortality, vital ratio, and production index) for broilers, when added dried bakery powder with yeast, the best addition ratio was 20% dried bakery powder with 0.04% yeast compared to the control treatment and treatments for added dried bakery powder without yeast. Keywords: dried bakery powder, yeast, productive traits, Ross 308 broilers.

Investigation of Fracture Surfaces of Soft Magnetic Materials

The present paper focused on the analysis of the fracture surfaces of a new development insulated iron powder compound with the addition of the aluminium alloy in order to improve the mechanical properties.Results show that in the pressed state, mainly pores act as crack initiators and due to their presence the distribution of stress is inhomogeneous across the cross-section and leads to the reduction of the effective load bearing area.Investigation of fracture surfaces concluded that improvements in bonding during the pressing process and heat treatment can be helpful in the development of soft magnetic materials to give a suitable combination between pressing pressure, annealing temperature and time as well as magnetic properties.

Mitigating the Health Risks of Dining Out: The Need for Standardized Portion Sizes in Restaurants

Because restaurants routinely serve food with more calories than people need, dining out represents a risk factor for overweight, obesity, and other diet-related chronic diseases. Most people lack the capacity to judge the caloric content of food and there is limited evidence that people make use of calorie-labeling information when it is available. Standardized portion sizes would not preclude people from eating as much as they want, but would make the amount they are getting fully transparent. We describe the potential benefits and means of implementing a system of standardized portion sizes that might facilitate a healthier diet among the US population.

CAN Operated on an Optical Double Ring at Improved Fault‐Tolerance

Abstract The use of a fibre optic ring with a multiple access protocol designed to work on an electrical bus is investigated in this study. An algorithm is presented for interfacing the existing network controller with an optical double ring in such a way that the ring appears to be the equivalent of an electrical bus. The trade‐off between cost and performance for a double ring in this application is acceptable and the inherent redundancy in the topology gives good fault tolerance at the expense of an extra hardware and software in each network node.

Practical aspects of the use of intrathecal chemotherapy.

There is a great variability in practice when using intrathecal chemotherapy, despite being an effective therapy, accepted by all international groups. This uncertainty is not li mited to the drugs and doses administered, but it also includes the manner of preparation and the administration technique. The heterogeneity in clinical practice can influence the efficacy and toxicity of this therapy.

A three dimensional parametric mesher

A parametric meshing technique is presented. Its distinctive feature relies on approximating the CAD geometry through a hierarchical process where information is gradually gathered. It leads to a robust and high quality mesh for CAD geometries. Emphasis is put on the use of three dimensional information. Limitations of parametric plane meshing is also highlighted. Zero and first order surface approximations are commented, and parametric mesh generation techniques are compared. In the context of the DOD CREATE-MG project, different CAD kernels and meshers communicate through application programming interfaces (API) as plugins. The parametric mesher is coupled to the CAD through the Capstone API’s and is independent of a particular CAD kernel. Numerous examples illustrate the method ’s capabilities.

Rheotactic Differentiation between Fluvial and Lacustrine Populations of Arctic Grayling (<i>Thymallus arcticus</i>), and Implications for the Only Remaining Indigenous Population of Fluvial "Montana Grayling"

Rheotactic behavior of young Arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus) from fluvial (Big Hole River) and lacustrine (Red Rocks Lake) populations in Montana was assessed in an artificial stream to see if fluvial grayling are adapted to life-long residence in streams by having an innately greater tendency to hold position and lesser tendency to go downstream. Responses of young tested at 0–10 d post-swimup contradicted the hypothesis; the fluvial grayling had strong downstream responses similar to or greater than those of the lacustrine grayling. When tested 18–31 d post-swimup, however, rheotactic responses of the fluvial and lacustrine grayling were consistent with the hypothesis, at three light intensities (full and dim lighting and darkness). Rheotactic differences were even greater in trials at 47–72 d post-swimup (conducted only under full lighting). Big Hole River grayling appear to be adapted to permanent stream residence. Such adaptation reinforces the importance of conserving this last indigenous fluvial population of the geographically disjunct, genetically identifiable "Montana grayling."

Garlic-Clove Fibroma

RECENTLY three patients presented with lesions of the toe nails and finger nails which closely resemble garlic cloves with the outer skin peeled away. These lesions began, without any history of trauma, as small lumps at the cuticle which grew away from the nail bed; they came to project from the dorsal surface of the nail, loosely attached by a pedicle (Figure). Painless, they did not recur following removal. Histological appearance was of a benign fibroepithelial polyp or irritation fibroma of the nail bed. Microscopic examination of serial sections revealed no foreign body; the appearance was that of a lesion completely covered, except at the base, by a layer of hyperkeratotic stratified squamous epithelium. The granular layer was prominent, with prickle cell and basal layers of normal thickness. The core of the polypoid structure was composed of interlacing bundles of dense collagenous tissue containing capillary channels. <h3>Comment</h3> The lesions described

Exercise and Type 2 Diabetes

Physical activity, including appropriate endurance and resistance training, is a major therapeutic modality for type 2 diabetes. Unfortunately, too often physical activity is an underutilized therapy. Favorable changes in glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity usually deteriorate within 72 h of the last exercise session: consequently, regular physical activity is imperative to sustain glucose-lowering effects and improved insulin sensitivity. Individuals with type 2 diabetes should strive to achieve a minimum cumulative total of 1,000 kcal x wk(-1) from physical activities. Those with type 2 diabetes generally have a lower level of fitness (VO2max) than nondiabetic individuals. and therefore exercise intensity should be at a comfortable level (RPE 10-12) in the initial periods of training and should progress cautiously as tolerance for activity improves. Resistance training has the potential to improve muscle strength and endurance, enhance flexibility and body composition, decrease risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and result in improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. Modifications to exercise type and/or intensity may be necessary for those who have complications of diabetes. Individuals with type 2 diabetes may develop autonomic neuropathy, which affects the heart rate response to exercise, and as a result, ratings of perceived exertion rather than heart rate may need to be used for moderating intensity of physical activity. Although walking may be the most convenient low-impact mode, some persons, because of peripheral neuropathy and/or foot problems, may need to do non-weight-bearing activities. Outcome expectations may contribute significantly to motivation to begin and maintain an exercise program. Interventions designed to encourage adoption of an exercise regimen must be responsive to the individual's current stage of readiness and focus efforts on moving the individual through the various "stages of change."

Pathologic Fracture in Childhood: Benign or Malignant?

A pathologic fracture is characterized as a break in the bone in an area that has been previously weakened by diseases such as pre-existing pathological bone lesions, due to which even minor falls and trauma may lead to fractures. This paper details a case of an otherwise healthy eight-year-old boy who presented to the ED with an injury to the right lower extremity which was later determined to be a pathological fracture. Imaging revealed the presence of a non-aggressive multicystic bone lesion. This case emphasizes the significance of identification and prompt diagnosis of instances of pathologic fracture, as they may arise as a result of serious underlying conditions such as malignant bone tumors.

Podatność osuwiskowa obszaru Krakowa

Due to the differentiation of landslides in Kraków city area, an artificial neural network method (multilayer perceptron) was used to determine the landslide susceptibility (LS). The calculations were performed in the r.landslide module. The network learning was carried out on the basis of 8 thematic layers (slopes, slope exposure, absolute height, relative height, convergence index, surface lithology, sub-Quaternary lithology, distance from tectonic discontinuities). For modelling, 434 points representing landslides and the same number of pointsoflocationswithoutlandslideswereused.Amongthesetofpoints,70%wasallocatedtothetrainingphase, 15%tothevalidationphase,and15%tothephase.Inordertoassessthenetworkperformance,basedontheresults of the test phase, a confusion matrix was made.

Dynamic Prediction Method for Web Service QoS Based on Case-based Reasoning

With the rapid growth of functionally similar Web services over the Web,Quality of Services(QoS) is beco-ming a decisive factor for Web service selection.However,current QoS measurement method generally takes the mean value of Web service history QoS values as the service’s QoS,and hasn’t taken the dynamic nature of service perfor-mance into consideration,and cannot measure QoS of Web services accurately,as a result,many selected services cannot satisfy consumer’s QoS constraints.In our framework,a dynamic QoS prediction method based on Case-Based Rea-soning(CBR) was provided,this method associates Web service QoS with the environment of service,task type and task size together,when a new service request comes,CBR is applied to predict QoS of the Web service in completing the new request.Experimental results show that,this method can improve accuracies of QoS of Web service effectively.

Book Review: Leveling the Playing Field: Promoting Academic Success for Students of Color

The most significant contribution this sourcebook makes to the existing literature is its focus on an underserved segment of the minority student population, those who have been regularly admitted. Although historically the vast majority of research concerning minority students focuses on the academically underprepared, more recently there has been a call for research that examines the full range of the community of minority students (Allen, 1992), including those with high ability. The disproportionate focus on underachievement in the literature helps create a distorted image of the community of minority students, and, perhaps unitentionally, tends to lower expectations for minority student achievement. Johnson and Ottens should be commended for their effort to expand the discussion of minority student retention. Their introductory comments capture well the importance of this topic.

An Overview of the Commercial Cloud Monitoring Tools: Research Dimensions, Design Issues, and State-of-the-Art

Cloud monitoring activity involves dynamically tracking the Quality of Service (QoS) parameters related to virtualized resources (e.g., VM, storage, network, appliances, etc.), the physical resources they share, the applications running on them and data hosted on them. Applications and resources configuration in cloud computing environment is quite challenging considering a large number of heterogeneous cloud resources. Further, considering the fact that at each point of time, there will be a different and specific cloud service which may be massively required. Hence, cloud monitoring tools can assist a cloud providers or application developers in: (i) keeping their resources and applications operating at peak efficiency; (ii) detecting variations in resource and application performance; (iii) accounting the Service Level Agreement (SLA) violations of certain QoS parameters; and (iv) tracking the leave and join operations of cloud resources due to failures and other dynamic configuration changes. In this paper, we identify and discuss the major research dimensions and design issues related to engineering cloud monitoring tools. We further discuss how aforementioned research dimensions and design issues are handled by current academic research as well as by commercial monitoring tools.

Table_1_Mono- and biallelic germline variants of DNA glycosylase genes in colon adenomatous polyposis families from two continents.xlsx

&lt;p&gt;Recently, biallelic germline variants of the DNA glycosylase genes MUTYH and NTHL1 were linked to polyposis susceptibility. Significant fractions remain without a molecular explanation, warranting searches for underlying causes. We used exome sequencing to investigate clinically well-defined adenomatous polyposis cases and families from Finland (N=34), Chile (N=21), and Argentina (N=12), all with known susceptibility genes excluded. Nine index cases (13%) revealed germline variants with proven or possible pathogenicity in the DNA glycosylase genes, involving NEIL1 (mono- or biallelic) in 3 cases, MUTYH (monoallelic) in 3 cases, NTHL1 (biallelic) in 1 case, and OGG1 (monoallelic) in 2 cases. NTHL1 was affected with the well-established, pathogenic c.268C&gt;T, p.(Gln90Ter) variant. A recurrent heterozygous NEIL1 c.506G&gt;A, p.(Gly169Asp) variant was observed in two families. In a Finnish family, the variant occurred in trans with a truncating NEIL1 variant (c.821delT). In an Argentine family, the variant co-occurred with a genomic deletion of exons 2 – 11 of PMS2. Mutational signatures in tumor tissues complied with biological functions reported for NEIL1. Our results suggest that germline variants in DNA glycosylase genes may occur in a non-negligible proportion of unexplained colon polyposis cases and may predispose to tumor development.&lt;/p&gt;

Angular function for the Compton scattering in mildly and ultra relativistic astrophysical plasmas

Compton scattering of low-frequency radiation by an isotropic distribution of (i) mildly and (ii) ultra relativistic electrons is considered. It is shown that the ensemble-averaged differential cross-section in this case is noticeably different from the Rayleigh phase function. The scattering by an ensemble of ultra-relativistic electrons obeys the law p=1-cos(alpha), where alpha is the scattering angle; hence photons are preferentially scattered backwards. This contrasts the forward scattering behaviour in the Klein-Nishina regime. Analytical formulae describing first-order Klein-Nishina and finite-electron-energy corrections to the simple relation above are given for various energy distributions of electrons: monoenergetic, relativistic-Maxwellian, and power-law. A similar formula is also given for the mildly relativistic (with respect to the photon energy and electron temperature) corrections to the Rayleigh angular function. One of manifestations of the phenomenon under consideration is that hot plasma is more reflective with respect to external low-frequency radiation than cold one, which is important, in particular, for the photon exchange between cold accretion disks and hot atmospheres (coronae or ADAF flows) in the vicinity of relativistic compact objects; and for compact radiosources.
