GnRH agonist for triggering final oocyte maturation: time for a critical evaluation of data

GnRH agonist for triggering final oocyte maturation: time for a critical evaluation of data Sir, We read with great interest the manuscript by Humaidan et al. (2011).In this review, the authors summarize the published evidence regarding the use of GnRH agonist for triggering final oocyte maturation in patients undergoing IVF.By combining the results of six recently published randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the authors suggest that when a modified luteal phase support (LPS) is employed, following GnRH agonist triggering, pregnancy rates are comparable with those achieved after hCG triggering and standard LPS.Moreover, they suggest that GnRH agonist triggering combined with a modified LPS results in elimination of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).These findings are very interesting, since they support the notion that GnRH agonist triggering when combined with a modified LPS is both an effective and safe treatment.We would like to elaborate on the data presented by the authors and extend the implications of the available evidence on the efficacy and safety of GnRH agonist triggering.

Religiosity and Marital Fertility: Israeli Arab Muslims, 1955—1972

This study examines the relationship between religiosity and marital fertility in a Muslim society around the onset of the transition using the 1973—74 Israeli Fertility Survey. In rural areas, where no decline was discernable, there was a negative relationship between religiosity and marital fertility, while in urban areas there was no relationship. The results of this study suggest that the negative relationship in rural areas is because of differences in breast-feeding. Following Quranic recommendations, the more religious seem to breast-feed longer. Demographic, social, and economic characteristics of the more and less religious do not account for the negative relationship. Demographic, social, and economic characteristics and the use of contraceptive methods, however, do explain, in part, the absence of a negative relationship in urban areas.

MMV-db: vaccinomics and RNA-based therapeutics database for infectious hemorrhagic fever-causing mammarenaviruses

Abstract The recent viral outbreaks and the current pandemic situation urges us to timely address any emerging viral infections by designing therapeutic strategies. Multi-omics and therapeutic data are of great interest to develop early remedial interventions. This work provides a therapeutic data platform (Mammarenavirus (MMV)-db) for pathogenic mammarenaviruses with potential catastrophic effects on human health around the world. The database integrates vaccinomics and RNA-based therapeutics data for seven human pathogenic MMVs associated with severe viral hemorrhagic fever and lethality in humans. Protein-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, helper T-cell and interferon-inducing epitopes were mapped using a cluster of immune-omics-based algorithms and tools for the seven human pathogenic viral species. Furthermore, the physiochemical and antigenic properties were also explored to guide protein-specific multi-epitope subunit vaccine for each species. Moreover, highly efficacious RNAs (small Interfering RNA (siRNA), microRNA and single guide RNA (sgRNA)) after extensive genome-based analysis with therapeutic relevance were explored. All the therapeutic RNAs were further classified and listed on the basis of predicted higher efficacy. The online platform (http://www.mmvdb.dqweilab-sjtu.com/index.php) contains easily accessible data sets and vaccine designs with potential utility in further computational and experimental work. Conclusively, the current study provides a baseline data platform to secure better future therapeutic interventions against the hemorrhagic fever causing mammarenaviruses.

EFFECT OF VARIOUS SOURCES OF SULFUR ON YIELD AND SULFUR CONCENTRATION OF CEREALS AND FORAGES

Field experiments were conducted at three locations in Prince Edward Island to determine the effects of various sources of S (Agri-Sul, gypsum, and Urea-Sul) on S concentration of tissue and yields of forages and cereals. Gypsum was effective in increasing the S concentration in plant tissues. Agri-Sul at 10–80 kg S∙ha −1 was generally ineffective in increasing the S concentration of forages and cereals. In the absence of added S (check treatments), the plant tissue S concentrations in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and timothy (Phleum pratense L.) ranged from 0.18 to 0.39 and from 0.14 to 0.27%, respectively. In wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and barley (Hordeum distichon L.), the S concentrations varied from 0.12 to 0.26 and from 0.13 to 0.20% in the boot stage tissue and grain, respectively, in the check treatments. In general, the S concentration was higher in the boot stage tissue than in the grain. Pea (Pisum sativum L.) seeds and vegetative material from the check treatments contained 0.19–0.24% and 0.17–0.36% S, respectively. Gypsum or Urea-Sul did not increase the yields of forages or cereals. In one instance Agri-Sul slightly increased the alfalfa yield (5–8.5%), but this was not associated with tissue S increases. Plant tissue S levels as low as 0.12–0.18% appeared to be adequate for barley, wheat, timothy, peas, and alfalfa. Key words: Sources of sulfur, tissue S, yields, cereals, forages

Trap state emission of water‐soluble CdS nanocrystals

Abstract We prepared water‐soluble CdS nanocrystals (NCs) capped by the poly (ethylene glycol)‐b‐poly (2‐( N,N ‐dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) chain. The photoluminescence (PL) properties of CdS NCs are investigated by time‐resolved and temperature‐dependent PL spectra. It is found that the PL band of CdS NCs is dominated by two trap state emissions, respectively. Due to the trap state emissions, fluorescent resonance energy transfer from CdS NCs to organic dyes (Texasred) can be observed, which suggests the potential application of trap states of CdS NCs for fabrication of biosensors.

Housing and Tax Capitalisation

This paper examines the effect of the tax treatment of owner occupied housing upon its price, commonly known as the capitalisation effect, and looks at how this has a differential impact upon distinct groups in the housing market. These groups are existing outright owners, existing owners with mortgages, potential purchasers and tenants. It is shown how gains and losses due to the tax treatment of owner occupied housing are distributed amongst these categories, and how they might be realised. Illustrative calculations are presented for each group. The paper shows how the process of capitalisation can exacerbate the unequal treatment of owner-occupiers and tenants and thus presents an argument for the withdrawal of the favourable tax treatment of owner-occupied housing. The problems for the different groups that this change would imply are also discussed.

Using Data Aggregation to Prevent Traffic Analysis in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract. When communication in sensor networks occurs over wireless links, confidential information about the communication patterns between sensor nodes could be leaked even when encryption is used to protect the actual contents of the messages. The communication patterns, which often reveal higher volumes of traffic near the sink, could allow an attacker to identify the vicinity of the sink node. With this information, an attacker could potentially disable the network by destroying the sink. In this paper, we present the decoy sink protocol, which protects the location of the sink in target tracking sensor network applications by forwarding data to a decoy sink for aggregation before the aggregated data is forwarded to the real sink from the decoy sink. Combining indirection and data aggregation in our protocol creates more traffic away from the sink and reduces the amount of traffic near the sink, which makes traffic analysis more difficult for attackers.

Genes controlling fertilization-independent seed development in <i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i>

We have cloned two genes, FIS1 and FIS2 , that control both fertilization independent seed development and postpollination embryo development in Arabidopsis . These genes confer female gametophytic phenotypes. FIS2 encodes a protein with a C 2 H 2 zinc-finger motif and three putative nuclear localization signals, indicating that it is likely to be a transcription factor. FIS1 encodes a protein with homology to the Drosophila Polycomb group gene Enhancer-of-zeste and is identical to the recently described Arabidopsis gene MEDEA . FIS1 is a protein with a number of putative functional domains, including the SET domain present in Enhancer-of-zeste-related proteins. Comparison of the position of the lesions in the fis1 and medea mutant alleles indicates that fis1 is a null allele producing a truncated polypeptide lacking all the protein domains whereas the deduced protein from medea lacks only the SET domain. We present a model of the role of FIS1 and FIS2 gene products in seed development.

Abstract: Resident Performance on the Plastic Surgery In-Service Exam Varies By Training Year and Pathway

BACKGROUND: Few studies in surgery have addressed medical knowledge competency training as defined by the American Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). As in-training exams are ubiquitous educational tools for surgical residents in the U.S, insights into exam performance may help fill this void. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between in-service exam performance and training profile in plastic surgery. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study reviewed performance data for the Plastic Surgery In-Service Training Exam (PSITE) for years 2012–2015. Comparisons were made both within and between training pathways via non-parametric tests. RESULTS: Data were available for 1367 independent (37.9%) and 2240 integrated (62.1%) residents. Among integrated residents, performance increased with additional years of training (p < 0.001), but no difference existed between PGY-5 and PGY-6 residents (p > 0.05). Similarly, independent resident exam performance increased by year of training (p < 0.001) with no difference between PGY-2 and PGY-3 years (p > 0.05). At each level of training (PGY 4–6), integrated residents outperformed their independent resident colleagues (PGY 1–3) (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Performance on the PSITE increases during residency with integrated residents outperforming independent residents. These findings may have implications on medical knowledge competency training as defined by the ACGME. DISCLOSURES:None

A STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF MUSCLE STRENGTHENING EXERCISES ON REDUCING LOW BACK PAIN AMONG POST-MENOPAUSAL WOMEN IN SELECTED URBAN AREAS OF DHARAPURAM

Back pain is described by the duration of the symptoms. Acute low back pain lasts less than 6 weeks and sub acute low back pain lasts 6 to 12 weeks. An evaluative approach was adopted for this study. The research design was a pre-experimental group pre-test post-test design. The target population was post-menopausal women. This study was conducted in Nanchhiyampalayam, Dharapuram. Nanchiyampalyam is an urban area which is 3kms away from Dharapuram. Samples were Post Menopausal Women between age group of 44-55 years. The purposive sampling technique was used to select the samples for the study. In post-test 210(70%) had minimal low back pain, 90 (30 %) had moderate low back pain, none of them had severe low back pain, crippled low back pain, and none of them had bedbound. Muscle strengthening exercises can be effective in reducing low back pain among post-menopausal women. Research has shown that regular exercise, including exercises that target the muscles in the back and core, can help improve strength, flexibility, and posture, which in turn can alleviate low back pain.

A note on numerical computation of elastic contact problems

Abstract A simple procedure of obtaining flexibility matrices in terms of contact pressures at possible contact points of two bodies allows the frictionless contact pressures to be solved as a quasi‐linear problem. Iteration is limited in general to very few cycles and, as small matrices are handled, can be very economical. Excellent accuracy of this procedure is demonstrated.

Performance Analysis of a Vehicle Crash Control System using Image

The scope of this paper is to advance the use of the on-board computer in preventing accidents when the driver falls asleep. This paper proposes the setup of an interface, which constantly monitors the movement of the eye corners and eyelids, in sequences of eye region images. An iterative algorithm is used to estimate the threshold value of the driver's eye width interactively. When the gauged value reaches a value lower than the threshold, the driver's drowsiness is confirmed. The automated crash control system then activates the brakes and cuts off fuel supply, bringing the vehicle to a gradual halt.

Madison, Indiana's saddletree industry and its workers, 1860-1930

A foreign concept to most twenty-first century individuals, a saddletree provides support and acts as the framework to saddles, giving saddlers a base on which to add cushioning, stretch leather, and create beautiful or functional saddles. Saddletree factories were an integral part of Madison, Indiana’s late nineteenth-century economy. As one of the Ohio River town’s leading industries, saddletree shops employed approximately 125 men during 1879, Madison’s peak saddletree production year, and made Madison a national center of saddletree production. However, the industry faded into oblivion as the beginning of the twentieth century, leaving the men drawn to these shops in the 1870s and 1880s to find new opportunities. While past historians contributed to the fields of industrial and economic history by studying large industries engaged in mass production in major urban areas, Madison’s saddletree workers represent a view of nineteenth-century specialized production. This thesis examines the saddletree industry’s place in Madison during the late nineteenth century and the lives of saddletree workers during and after the industry’s peak. My findings, based off extensive digital research and tools utilized in earlier social mobility studies, create a nuanced view of Madison’s relationship to the saddletree industry, saddletree makers, and what the industry’s collapse meant to saddletree factory employees.
