Poster 427: Successful Long‐term Community Discharge After Rehabilitation of Delayed Radiation Myelopathy: A Case Report

V. H. Vu, None. A 38-year-old man with T2N2M0 laryngeal cancer. The patient was treated with a standard regimen of chemotherapy and radiation therapy (RT). After 17 months, he developed left sided weakness, requiring a cane to ambulate. A diagnosis of radiation necrosis was made after laminectomy and cord biopsy. His functional status was setup for feeding, maximal assistance for transfers and total assistance for toileting. The patient was admitted to IPR. Acute rehabilitation hospital. After 6 weeks of IPR, manual muscle testing did not change. However, his function improved to modified independent with basic ADLs and standby assist for transfers. The patient's mother was trained in intermittent catheterization. He received a hospital bed, wheelchair, shower chair, and hemi-walker and was discharged home as a C2 ASIA D tetraplegic. In 4 months, he became C4 complete tetraplegic and developed a stage IV sacral pressure ulcer. He was readmitted for 2 weeks of IPR for family education on pressure ulcers then discharged home. RM is a complication of radiation therapy when the treatment window includes the spinal cord. Early RM is self limiting. Our patient presented with delayed RM despite radiation within the accepted safety margin of 50 Gy. Symptoms occur 6-24 months after RT causing demyelination and vascular changes. Prophylaxis with hyperbaric oxygen, anticoagulation or steroids, are being studied. It is unfortunately true that patients with disseminated malignancies and associated cervical motor-complete cord lesions are often denied oncologic rehabilitation. However, our patient benefited significantly from inpatient rehabilitation, such that he was successfully discharged home with his family for over 2 years. This observation contradicts the therapeutic nihilism commonly seen in this setting. It supports consideration of inpatient rehabilitation for patients with cervical myelopathy associated with complications of advanced malignancy (such as delayed RM) in the presence of good family support. Admission to inpatient rehabilitation can improve function and quality of life in patients diagnosed with cervical myelopathy associated with advanced malignancy.

Performance Tuning of Tile Matrix Decomposition

Task parallel algorithms have attracted attention as algorithms for highly parallel architectures in recent years. The aim of such algorithms is to keep all computing resources running without stalling by executing a large number of fine-grained tasks asynchronously while observing data dependencies. The tile algorithm of matrix decomposition of dense matrices is implemented using a task parallel programming model following such an approach. In this article, we will consider how to select tile size, which is an important performance parameter.

AC dielectrophoretic manipulation and electroporation of vaccinia virus using carbon nanoelectrode arrays

This paper reports the capture and detection of vaccinia virus particles based on AC dielectrophoresis (DEP) and electrochemical impedance measurements employing an embedded vertically aligned carbon nanofiber (VACNF) nanoelectrode array (NEA) versus a macroscopic indium‐tin‐oxide (ITO) transparent electrode in a “points‐and‐lid” configuration. The nano‐DEP device was fabricated by bonding two SU‐8 covered electrodes patterned using photolithography. The bottom electrode contains a 200 × 200 μm 2 active region on a randomly distributed NEA and the top electrode contains a microfluidic channel in SU‐8 spin‐coated on ITO to guide the flow of the virus solution. The real‐time impedance change was measured during DEP capture and validated with fluorescence microscopy measurements. The NEA was able to capture virus particles with a rather low AC voltage (∼8.0 V peak‐to‐peak) at 1.0 kHz frequency as the particles were passed through the fluidic channel at high flow velocities (up to 8.0 mm/s). A concentration detection limit as low as ∼2.58 × 10 3 particles/mL was obtained via impedance measurements after only 54 sec of DEP capture. At the low AC frequencies (50.0 Hz or less), the high electric field at the exposed VACNF tips induced electroporation of the DEP‐captured virus particles, which was validated by fluorescence emission from the dyes staining lipophilic membrane and internal nucleic acid, respectively. This study suggests the possibility of integration of a fully functional electronic device for rapid, reversible and label‐free capture and detection of pathogenic viruses, with a potential of generating electroporation to the captured the virus particles for further biochemical study.

Mechanical Effects of Defect Closure Following BPTB Graft Harvest for ACL Reconstruction

Anterior cruciate ligament injury affects roughly 120 000 athletes in the United States every year. One of the most common techniques is the use of a bone-patellar tendon-bone graft. Graft harvest creates a sizeable defect in the remaining patellar tendon. Closure of this defect is based on surgeon preference. To date there has been no study on the effects of defect closure on the mechanical properties of remaining donor patellar tendon. The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of closure on both the strength and stiffness of the remaining patellar tendon. 7 pairs of fresh frozen cadaver patellar tendons were matched by tendon dimensions. Bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts were harvested from all of the specimens and then half of the paired tendons underwent defect closure. All of the donor tendons were then tested in a servohydraulic load frame to failure at a constant displacement rate at room temperature. This study found no differences in the load at failure, the engineering failure stress, stiffness or in the engineering modulus between the donor tendons that underwent defect closure versus those that did not.

Deciphering mechanisms of pathogenicity and resistance induction in the interaction between &lt;em&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/em&gt; spp. and European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.).

In this work, five parallel investigations are combined aiming to elucidate mechanisms of pathogenicity and resistance induction on the beech-Phytophthora interaction. It was demonstrated that blocking elicitins caused loss of pathogen virulence. Phosphite protected beech seedlings against infection by P. plurivora. Two innovative devices were developed to quantify zoospores attraction to root-exudates and to manipulate temperature of infected roots. Finally, allocation of carbon and nitrogen was investigated in Beech infected with P. plurivora and P. pseudosyringae.

An Evaluation of DTW Approaches for Whole-of-Body Gesture Recognition

This paper systematically explores the capabilities of different forms of Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithms and their parameter configurations in recognising whole-of-body gestures. The standard DTW (SDTW) (Sakoe and Chiba 1978), globally feature weighted DTW (Reyes et al. 2011) and locally feature weighted DTW (Arici et al. 2013) algorithms are particularly considered, while an enhanced version of the globally feature weighted DTW (EDTW) algorithm is presented. A wide range of configurable parameters: distance measures (Euclidean and Mahalanobis), combination of features (Cartesian velocity, angular velocity and acceleration), combinations of skeletal elements, reference signal count and k-nearest neighbour count are tested in order to understand the impact on final recognition accuracies. The study is conducted by collecting gesturing data from10 participants for 9 differentwhole-of-body gesture commands. The results suggest that the proposed enhanced version of the globally feature weighted DTW algorithm performs significantly better than the other DTW algorithms. Given sufficient training data this study suggests that the Mahalanobis distance has the capability to better differentiate certain gestures compared to the Euclidean distance. Out of the features, Cartesian velocity combined with angular velocity provides the highest gesture discriminant capability while acceleration provides the lowest. When highly informative and stable skeletal elements are selected, the overall performance gain obtained by adding extra skeletal data is marginal. Also the recognition accuracies are sensitive to the reference signal count and the KNN percentage. Additionally, the presented results summarise the unique capabilities of certain configurations over others, highlighting the importance of selecting the appropriate DTW algorithm and its configurations to achieve optimal gesture recognition performances.

Temperature tolerance and the final preferendum—rapid methods for the assessment of optimum growth temperatures

The relationship between the temperature requirements of some fish species, using published data for growth optima, final preferences and lethal limits were examined. A good correlation was found and it is suggested that the data established gives a good estimate of the temperature promoting maximum growth. Determinations of final preferenda are easily conducted in the laboratory and could therefore be used to give rapid assessments of optimum growth temperatures of potential culture species. The practical application of such measurements is discussed.

Changing Theoretical Perspectives on Urbanisation in Asian Developing Countries

European models of urbanization inadequately capture the process of growth of urban cities in Asian developing countries. The following theoretical issues were presented as illustrations of the inadequacies of European paradigms: 1) the role of cities in regional development, 2) the dual nature of employment in Asian cities, 3) foreign investments, and 4) socialism. The concept of extended metropolitan regions in Asian countries was advanced by the studies of McGee and Ginsburg; metropolitan regions were recognized as unique to Asia. Socioeconomic development led to the blurring of regions into distinct urban and rural areas and to the mixing of agricultural and nonagricultural areas. The city-based model of economic concentration was replaced with a region-based urbanization. There is no universally applicable model of urban transition, although the influence of Euro-Americanism can still be felt in the theories of developing country development. What is not known is whether the new form of urban transition is a viable option or is a compromise between city-biased strategy and the development of intermediate and small towns. The effects of extended metropolitan regions are still unknown. Primary urbanization has its roots in early civilizations. Peterson developed the notions of the transitional stages of industrialization and urbanization: 1) preindustrial with high birth, death, and infant mortality rates of young, small populations; 2) early Western industrialization with reduced mortality and increased births; and 3) modern Western society with low birth and mortality rates and older, larger populations. Kingsley Davis provided the conception of rural-to-urban migration and urban growth, associated with urban economic and social opportunity and a shift from agricultural to nonagricultural employment. McGee postulated demographic, economic, and social transitions as part of the urbanization process. There is an increasing awareness that urban growth and the structure of the city are strongly influenced by the production and distribution of the world economy.

Feeding ecology of juvenile rockfishes off Oregon and Washington: insights into life history patterns based on stomach content and stable isotope analyses

No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.We examined the feeding habits of pelagic juvenile rockfish (Sebastes spp.) collected off Oregon and Washington during 2000, 2002, and 2006 using a combination of stomach content and stable isotope analyses. Species were identified using genetic techniques and the predominant species collected in all years were darkblotched (S. crameri), canary (S. pinniger), yellowtail (S. flavidus), and widow (S. entomelas) rockfish. Analysis of stomach contents by % number revealed that darkblotched rockfish expressed a high degree of variability of their diets, whereas canary, yellowtail, and widow rockfish had high dietary overlap, attributed to the common utilization of copepods and euphausiids. Less overlap in diets was observed among species when % wet weight was examined. Multivariate analysis of stomach content data (% wet weight) revealed significant differences in diet based on distance from shore where caught, fish size and species. Nitrogen stable isotope analyses revealed all rockfish were feeding at about the same trophic level within each year; however there was a 1.5‰ difference between years. Low (more negative) 13C values of rockfish were indicative of primary production from a more offshore origin, with widow consistently expressing the lowest values between years. Comprehensively, these results advance our understanding of some of the important environmental factors that affect young‐of‐the‐year rockfish during their critical pelagic phase.

Public Health Impact of Bovine Cysticercosis in Ethiopia: A review

Zoonotic effects of Bovine cysticercosis and its causative agents are metacestode at the stage of cestode and Taenia (T) saginata for humans. The reviewed result stated that the cosmopolitan and its distribution of Bovine cysticercosis are common in the world. Distribution is associated with economic conditions, religious and close proximity of humans to cattle. Its life cycle is indirect and entirely dependent on the link between man and cattle. So, this review was indicated that any break between human and cattle results in the total elimination of the parasites. Cysts of Cysticercus (C.) bovis is found anywhere in the carcass and viscera especially masseter, tongue, heart, triceps, inter costal muscles and the diaphragm are the most affected organs. In Ethiopia except the heart other organs are consumed at raw meat or under cooked. Most research result showed that man consumes these muscles containing viable Cysticercus and a tapeworm develop and coses a potential public health hazards than Taeniasis. The custom of eating raw or undercooked beef dishes and the habit of defecating in open fields and allowing cattle to graze in such fields made Taeniasis of human and cysticercosis of cattle in Ethiopia. The prevalence of the disease both in human and animals is high. T.saginata in small intestine of humans absorbs digested food and its proglottids migrate to different organs causing different signs. Economic loss from cysticercosis is determined by disease prevalence, grade of animals affected, potential market policy of cattle. In Ethiopia most Slaughtering practices are often carried out in the field in the absence of abattoirs. This allows the parasite to continue its life cycle in the coming future. Therefore avoiding the consumption of raw meat, slaughtering animals on the field and stop free grazing is the prevention measure of cysticercosis.

SH0933008.09FU

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.

From Microlevel Decisions to Landscape Changes: An Assessment of Agricultural Conservation Policies

The growth in conservation programs has created a need for modeling frameworks capable of measuring microlevel behavioral responses and macrolevel landscape changes. This paper presents an empirical model that predicts farmers' production practices and the resulting levels of agricultural runoffs at more than 42,000 agricultural sites in the upper‐Mississippi river basin under alternative conservation policies. Results suggest that payments for conservation tillage and crop rotations increase the use of these conservation practices. However, the acreage response is inelastic and the programs are not likely to be cost effective on their own for addressing hypoxia problem in the Gulf of Mexico.
