Regression of mouse sarcoma M(52)B treated with bovine fascia lata extract from animals previously inoculated with Babesia bovis and B. bigemina.

Mice with induced tumours of mouse sarcoma M(52)B were treated by injections of extract of bovine fascia lata from two animals which had been inoculated with a mixture of Babesia bovis and B. bigemina--in one case 6 weeks previously and in the second case 8 weeks previously. As a control a further series of mice was injected with an extract of bovine fascia lata taken from a splenectomized animals reared in the laboratory to ensure that it had not come into contact with ticks and was free of Babesia.

Treatment of oropharyngeal carcinoma by irradiation or by surgery

Of previously untreated patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx, 145 are reviewed in this study. All were treated in the Department of Head and Neck Surgery at the University of Liverpool from 1990 to 1997. Seventy-seven patients were treated with irradiation, 28 patients by surgery and 40 patients were deemed not suitable for any curative treatment. Univariate analysis showed no difference in the two groups treated by curative modalities but multivariate analysis did suggest that the surgical group tended to have larger neck node metastases. The 5-year tumour specific actuarial survival for all patients was 53%, 65% for the radiotherapy group and 51% for the surgery group. The difference was not statistically significant (chi (1)2 = 1.5070). The modality of treatment had no affect on either the development of a primary or neck node recurrence or the survival after such a recurrence. Where neck node disease was present it was treated as appropriate. As is generally standard practice, lymph nodes over 2 cm were treated with radical neck dissection whether the patient was having irradiation therapy or surgery. If the patient was having irradiation therapy, the neck dissection was carried out before and irradiation after operation, both on the primary and on the neck, if appropriate. It is concluded that irradiation therapy in properly selected cases in combined head and neck clinics is a safe and effective treatment for squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx. Neck node disease should be treated appropriately, but there is no support for the old adage that whatever form of treatment is being used for the neck node should also be used for the primary site.

The genomic relationship of the diploid <i>Bromus variegatus</i> to <i>Bromus inermis</i>

The diploid species Bromus variegatus Bieb. was crossed to Bromus inermis Leyss (4x, 8x). Chromosome pairing in each of the six F 1 hybrid plants of B. variegatus × B. inermis (4x) fit a 2:1 genomic model of chromosome pairing, which indicated that the B. variegatus genome was more closely related to the A or B genome of B. inermis than A and B were related to each other. A breakdown of microsporocytes was observed in the B. variegatus × B. inermis (8x) hybrid. However, chromosome pairing suggested that the B. variegatus genome was differentiated from the A and B genomes of octoploid B. inermis.Key words: Bromus, diploid, genome, affinity.

Prediction of Slug Liquid Holdup in Horizontal Pipes

Slug liquid holdup is a critical parameter of slug flow, which influences the average liquid holdup and pressure drop along pipelines. The objective of this study is to develop a new correlation to predict slug liquid holdup in horizontal pipes. A large data set with wide ranges of operational, geometrical, and physical property parameters was used to develop the new correlation. The new correlation is a function of one independent mechanistic dimensionless variable, namely, the momentum transfer rate between the slug body and the liquid film. Physical modeling and statistical analyses suggested the appropriateness of the dimensionless momentum transfer rate as an independent parameter, which accounts for a large part of the variation in slug liquid holdup. A correlation validation and comparison study showed the accuracy of the new correlation. The statistical evaluation of the correlation resulted in an average percent relative error and percent standard deviation of 4.1% and 2.4%, respectively. Furthermore, the developed correlation was compared with other correlations and showed superior performance among all correlations, with the lowest relative performance factor of 0.01.

Left ventricular hypertrophy in aortic valve stenosis: friend or foe?

revision. 11 12 There are several mechanisms by which excessive LVH may be related to the outcome of patients with AS. It has been shown that left ventricular systolic function declines as hypertrophy develops, increasing the risk of heart failure. 6 Due to afterload dependence, systolic chamber function may be difficult to quantify in the presence of AS. As left ventricular volumes become smaller due to concentric remodelling, stroke volume is reduced, sometimes leading to the ‘paradoxical low-flow AS’ phenomenon. 13 Despite normal ejection fraction, patients with this condition show higher values of concentric remodelling and smaller ventricles than their normal-flow counterparts. In paradoxical low-flow AS, reduced output is believed to result in the combination of systolic and diastolic dysfunction. Under stress situations, the heart may fail to provide adequate output, and patients with paradoxical low-flow AS show an adverse prognosis, particularly if they do not undergo valve replacement. 14

Examining the incentive mechanism of multi-value co-creation in PPP projects: A trust-based perspective

The value co-creation is the true success of PPP projects. However, the traditional static governance based on project performance cannot cope with the lengthy process of value co-creation in PPP projects; as a result, the strategic asset of partnership has not been fully developed and utilized. This article takes the partnership in PPP projects as the starting point, defines the new connotation of the multi-value of PPP projects, introduces the trust parameter and establishes a contract incentive model based on the game theory which is a two-dimensional integration of contract and trust, and comprehensively analyzes the impact of the optimal incentive coefficient, optimal effort level, and trust level on the creation of cooperation value and overall project benefits by both parties through the establishment of a dual incentive game model of contract and trust. It provides path selection for promoting effective cooperation between the government department and social capitals to co-create project value.

Low-Cost Laser-Acoustic PVC Identification System Based on a Simple Neural Network

Desktop laser cutters are an affordable and flexible rapid-prototyping tool, but some materials cannot be safely processed. Among them is polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which users usually cannot distinguish from other, unproblematic plastics. Therefore, an identification system for PVC applicable in a low-cost laser cutter has been developed. For the first time, this approach makes use of the laser-ablative sound generated by a low-power laser diode. Using a capacitor microphone, a preprocessing algorithm and a very simple neural network, black PVC could be detected with absolute reliability under ideal conditions. With ambient noise, the accuracy dropped to 80%. A different color of the material did not influence the accuracy to detect PVC, but a susceptibility of the method against a color change was found for other materials. The ablation characteristics for different materials were recorded using a fast-framing camera to get a better insight into the mechanisms behind the investigated process. Although there is still potential for improvements, the presented method was found to be promising to enhance the safety of future desktop laser cutters.

Post-buckling behavior of functionally graded and carbon-nanotubes based structures with different mechanical loadings

This article aims to investigate the post-buckling behavior of plates and cylindrical panels made of functionally graded materials (FGM) and carbon-nanotubes reinforced composites (FG-CNTRC) under mechanical loads. Unlike the other high order shear deformation theories, the proposed formulation is elaborated within a double directors finite shell element which allows a parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strains, guarantee the zero condition of the transverse shear stresses on the extreme surfaces of the shell and introduces large deformations and finite rotations through a non-linear framework. Newton-Raphson with arc length control solution strategy is used to resolve the equilibrium paths. A power-law distribution and the extended rule of mixture are used to determine the effective material properties of functionally graded materials and carbon-nanotubes reinforced composites. The effectiveness and the accuracy of the formulation is checked via several comparisons with published results in the literature. Especially, some complex post-buckling curves of FGM and FG-CNTRC curved panels and plates with different mechanical loadings are provided that could be useful for future references. The effects of various parameters are also reported.

Dietary pattern and the corresponding gut microbiome in response to immunotherapy in Thai patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

204 Background: Gut microbiota is considered a key player modulating the response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in cancer. The effects of dietary pattern on this interaction is not well-studied. Methods: A prospective multicenter cohort of 95 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing ICI therapy were enrolled. Stool shotgun metagenomic sequencing was performed. Three-day dietary patterns before ICI were assessed. Patients were categorized as hyperprogressive disease (HPD) if they exhibited a time to treatment failure of &lt;2 months. All others were categorized as non-hyperprogressive disease (non-HPD). The correlation between dietary patterns, gut microbiome, and response to ICI therapy was analyzed. Results: In the multivariate analysis, high abundance of Firmicutes unclassified and the Ruminococcaceae family correlated with significantly diminished progression-free survival (PFS) with HR of 2.40 [ P=0.006] and 4.30 [ P=0.005], respectively. More specifically, within the subset of NSCLC patients treated solely with ICI therapy, high abundance of Intestinimonas and the Enterobacteriaceae family were associated with reduced PFS with HR of 2.61 [ P=0.02] and HR 3.34 [ P=0.005], respectively. In dietary pattern analysis, HPD group showed increased consumption of cholesterol, sodium, and fats beyond recommended levels compared to non-HPD group. This group also displayed a tendency towards higher food pattern scores characterized by significant intake of fat and dairy products. Conclusions: Our study revealed distinct association between the gut microbiome composition and treatment outcomes. Based on these findings, the overall composition of diet may play a pivotal role in ICI therapeutic outcomes. [Table: see text]

Hydraulic fracture simulation: Comparison with exact solutions

The nature and distribution of residual stresses are invariably critical for fatigue life with dissimilar material joints often inducing high tensile residual stresses. A fatigue-resistant concept of weld cladding process pipelines, producing compressive residual stresses, is under investigation to examine how these stresses may be influenced. Simplified weld cladding simulations have successfully illustrated the development and distribution of residual stresses through the joint. The study has highlighted the importance of accurate material data for clad and substrate materials with current analysis assumptions in a simple thick-walled pipe discussed. Experimental validation, using ICHD, measured residual stresses with depth on weld clad specimens, resulting in good correlation between simulation and experiment for a nickel-chromium-based superalloy clad on low alloy carbon steel as discussed. Future work, including a full 3D representation of the cladding process and a comparison of residual stress measurement methods, are also discussed.

<strong class="journal-contentHeaderColor">Abstract.</strong> Tropical mountains and highlands in Africa are under pressure because of anthropogenic climate and land-use change. To determine the impacts on the afro-alpine environment and to assess the potential socio-economic consequences, the monitoring of essential climate and environmental variables at high elevation is fundamental. However, long-term temperature observations on the African continent above 3000 m are very rare. Here we present a consistent multiannual dataset of hourly ground temperatures for the Bale Mountains in the southern Ethiopian Highlands, which comprise Africa's largest tropical alpine area. The dataset covers the period from January 2017 to January 2020. To characterise and continuously monitor the mountain climate and ecosystem of the Bale Mountains along an elevation gradient from 3493 to 4377 m, ground temperature data loggers have been installed at seven sites at 2 cm depth; at four sites at 10 cm depth; and at five sites at 2, 10, and 50 cm depth. The statistical analysis of the generated time series reveals that ground temperatures in the Bale Mountains are subject to large daily fluctuations of up to 40 <span class="inline-formula"><sup>∘</sup></span>C and minor seasonal variations on the order of 5 to 10 <span class="inline-formula"><sup>∘</sup></span>C. Besides incoming short-wave radiation, ground moisture, and clouds at night, slope orientation and the type of vegetation coverage seem to be the main factors controlling daily and seasonal ground temperature variations. On the central Sanetti Plateau above 3800–4000 m, the mean annual ground temperature ranges from 9 to 11 <span class="inline-formula"><sup>∘</sup></span>C. However, nocturnal ground frost down to a depth of 5 cm occurs frequently during the dry season from November to February. At the five sites where ground temperature is measured at three depths, the monitoring will be continued to trace long-term changes. To promote the further use of the ground temperature dataset by the wider research community dealing with the climate and geo-ecology of tropical mountains in eastern Africa, it is made freely available via the open-access repository Zenodo: <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6047457">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6047457</a> <span class="cit" id="xref_paren.1">(<a href="#bib1.bibx22">Groos et al.</a>, <a href="#bib1.bibx22">2022</a>)</span>.
