Supplementary Figure Figure S1. Expression analysis of FAIM2, FADD, FAS, and CASP8 in NSCLC, SCLC, and neuroblastoma (NB) cell lines. 133 NSCLC, 54 SCLC, and 17 neuroblastoma (NB) cell lines from CCLE database () were analyzed. FAIM2 mRNA expression was significantly higher in NB cells compared to those in NSCLC cells (p = 0.0015). In contrast, three proapoptotic genes, FAS, FADD, and CASP8 showed higher expression in NSCLC compared to those NB cells (p < 0.0001 for FADD, FAS, and CASP8). These data suggest tumor cells (SCLC and NB) with neuroendocrine origin commonly have a suppressed Fas apoptosis signaling pathway and overexpression of the anti-apoptotic gene FAIM2.
A DNA fragment carrying the third mutated ACP domain of orfA from Schizochytrium sp. was amplified by overlap PCR with primers (SP48/SP49/SP50/SP51) and pET-orfA as a template. The fragment was digested with FspI and EagI, and inserted into the AfeI and EagI sites of pHSG298-ACP2. The replacement of the EagI and BamHI fragments was done as described above. Plasmid construction of pET-SopfaA-S1 A DNA fragment carrying hlyB sequence S1 (accession number NC_004347, 118th to 224th amino acids of HlyB, Supplementary Table 4), which is an ABC transporter from S. oneidensis, was amplified by PCR with primers (SP52/SP53) and the S. oneidensis genome as a template. The fragment was digested with PvuII and EagI, and inserted into the AfeI and EagI sites of pHSG298-ACP2. The replacement of the EagI and BamHI fragments was done as described above. Plasmid construction of pET-SofaA-S2 A DNA fragment carrying hlyB sequence S2 (accession number NC_004347, to 489th amino acids of HlyB, Supplementary Table 4) was amplified by PCR with primers (SP54/SP55) and the S. oneidensis genome as a template.

cannot be avoided; To reduce the risk of injuries resulting from hazardous manual handling operations as far as reasonably practicable; To review the risk assessments at appropriate intervals and revise them if necessary. It is the policy of SRET that all possible steps should be taken to eliminate the risks associated with manual handling in the workplace. As this is not always possible, the Trust will seek to reduce the unavoidable risks. This is through the provision of staff training in the form of advice on good handling techniques and by supplying mechanical aids where appropriate such a “sack-trucks”, and hoists. A generic manual handling assessment for the Trust will be completed and made available to all employees. Where an individual’s role will involve prolonged or repeated manual handling, an individual risk assessment will be undertaken to fully understand the risks involved and seek to implement control measures to minimise the risk of a manual handling injury Where tasks involving manual handling with the potential for injury cannot be avoided, a ‘suitable and sufficient’ risk assessment must be made: Task: Consider whether the task involves Holding the load at a distance from the trunk – this increases the stresses on the lower back; Twisting the trunk – this should be avoided when lifting or supporting a load; Stooping – this increases the stress on the lower back; Reaching upwards – this places higher stress on the back, shoulders and arms; Excessive lifting or lowering distances – the ideal range for handling a load is around waist height; Handling while seated – many movements from a seated position will inevitably involve a degree of stooping and/ or twisting; Excessive carrying distance – the risk of injury increases if a load is carried more than about 10m even if the load is not difficult to handle; Excessive pushing or pulling of the load Insufficient rest or recovery periods – this will result in physical and mental fatigue; Team handling – although used to reduce some team handling can introduce other risks, particularly in relation to good planning and of the task. Individual – Does the job?: Require unusual strength, height etc – the task should be suitable for the ‘normal’ working population and not rely on height, strength etc Create a hazard to who are pregnant or have a health problem; and Require special knowledge or training for its safe performance: who should

4.4.2 Gender Attitudes Overall, children with and without disabilities held similar views and beliefs related to gender norms and power relations in the home and school. Children who were orphans, however, had less positive views on gender attitudes than children who were not orphans and these findings were significant (p = .000). Table 13 and Figure 20 present the ANOVA findings from the group mean comparisons on the Gender Attitude Index. Figure 20. Mean Comparisons for Gender Attitude Index Orphans’ beliefs about gender stereotypes and power relations in the home and school tended to represent a more conservative and traditional viewpoint. Orphans were more likely than non-orphans to agree with the following statements: Girls continue in school if they get married (62.8% versus 50.3%; p < .005) It is acceptable for a to disagree with her husband (68.5% versus 57.3%; p < .005) A pregnant girl should be allowed to go to school (88.7% versus 83.0%; p < .001) Table 13. Group Mean Comparisons on Gender Attitude Index: Orphans and Children with Disabilities Mean (N) StdDev 95% Confidence Interval F-test p-value Orphans Orphans 5.76 (570) 1.59 5.63–5.89 30.21 .000 Not orphans 6.16 (3,579) 1.60 6.10–6.21 Disabilities Children with a disability 6.18 (125) 1.70 5.88–6.49 .311 .577 Children without a disability 6.10 (4019) 1.61 6.05–6.15 4.4.3 SRGBV Experiences When there are longstanding hierarchical power structures in schools and communities, marginalized populations often have low status and are valued less, especially children. These imbalanced power relations place some children at a higher risk of experiencing SRGBV. Children living in poverty, orphans, children from minority ethnic groups or races, and children who have disabilities are known to be at a higher risk of bullying, corporal punishment, and sexual harassment and assault than children who are not in these subpopulations (Bisika, Ntata, & Konyani, 2009; Parkes, 2015).

Next, review all steps that require action and highlight activities that are judged by the team as priorities. Some activities may not be initiated until the subsequent school year; in this case, simply note the year in which the activity will be targeted. Finally, assign responsibility for keeping work on this activity progressing to one or more individuals in the school. Components Action Who When A.
