Obesity in Children | Child obesity is widely prevalent, and general pediatricians play an important role in identifying and caring for patients with obesity. Appropriate evaluation and treatment require an understanding of the complex etiology of child obesity, its intergenerational transmission, and its epidemiologic trends, including racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities. The American Academy of Pediatrics has published screening, evaluation, and treatment guidelines based on the best available evidence. However, gaps in evidence remain, and implementation of evidence-based recommendations can be challenging. It is important to review optimal care in both the primary care and multidisciplinary weight management settings. This allows for timely evaluation and appropriate referrals, with the pediatrician playing a key role in advocating for patients at higher risk. There is also a role for larger-scale prevention and policy measures that would not only aid pediatricians in managing obesity but greatly benefit child health on a population scale. | Pediatrics In Review | [

Quantitative trait loci underlying hatching weight and growth traits in an F2 intercross between two strains of Japanese quail | A three-generation resource population was developed using two distinct Japanese quail strains, wild and white, to map quantitative trait loci underlying hatching weight and growth traits. Eight pairs of white and wild birds were crossed reciprocally and 34 F1 birds were produced. The F1 birds were intercrossed to generate 422 F2 offspring. All of the animals from three generations (472 birds) were genotyped for eight microsatellite markers on chromosome 1. Liveweight data from hatch to 5 weeks of age were collected on the F2 birds. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis was conducted applying the line-cross model and the least-squares interval mapping approach. The results indicated QTL affecting hatching weight and several growth related traits on chromosome 1. The F2 phenotypic variance explained by the detected additive QTL effects ranged from 1.0 to 3.7 for different traits. Modelling both additive and dominance QTL effects revealed additional QTL with significant dominance mode of action affecting pre-slaughter weight. However, there was no evidence for imprinting (parent-of-origin) effects. The variance due to the reciprocal cross effect ranged between 3.0 and 19.1% for weight at 1 week of age and hatching weight, respectively. | Animal Production Science | [

Geographic Analytics and Visualization for Decision Making: An Application for Online Food Delivery Platform | Promoting organizers such as marketing planners frequently utilize geographical information systems to single out appropriate retail stores, setting up advertising campaigns based on regions, and target direct showcasing exercises. Geographical information systems topical maps encourage the visual evaluation of regions. A wide arrangement of elective symbolization, for example, circles, bars, or shading, can be utilized to represent quantitative geospatial data on such maps. In any case, there is little learning on which sort of symbolization is most viable for each case. In a huge scale exploratory study, the creators demonstrate that the symbolization firmly impacts choice execution. GIS-based representations encourage the evaluation of store areas and help organizers to choose the most encouraging options. The choice of the best option requires a visual streamlining which is supported by GIS topical maps. In this study, the manner in which how various GIS-based information portrayals impact advertising analyst’s decision making for online food delivery platforms is explored. The outcomes demonstrate that GIS maps are an important piece of work and that sort of guided representation impacts the initiated decision-making process. | [

Evaluating placement policies for managing capacity sharing in CMP architectures with private caches | Chip Multiprocessors (CMP) with distributed L2 caches suffer from a cache fragmentation problem; some caches may be overutilized while others may be underutilized. To avoid such fragmentation, researchers have proposed capacity sharing mechanisms where applications that need additional cache space can place their victim blocks in remote caches. However, we found that only allowing victim blocks to be placed on remote caches tends to cause a high number of remote cache hits relative to local cache hits. In this article, we show that many of the remote cache hits can be converted into local cache hits if we allow newly fetched blocks to be selectively placed directly in a remote cache, rather than in the local cache. To demonstrate this, we use future trace information to estimate the near-upperbound performance that can be gained from combined placement and replacement decisions in capacity sharing. Motivated by encouraging experimental results, we design a simple, predictor-based, scheme called Adaptive Placement Policy (APP) that learns from past cache behavior to make a better decision on whether to place a newly fetched block in the local or remote cache. We found that across 50 multiprogrammed workload mixes running on a 4-core CMP, APP's capacity sharing mechanism increases aggregate performance by 29% on average. At the same time, APP outperforms the state-of-the-art capacity sharing mechanism that uses only replacement-based decisions by up to 18.2%, with a maximum degradation of only 0.5%, and an average improvement of 3%. | [

International Comparative Pilot Study of Spatial Skill Development in Engineering Students through Autonomous Augmented Reality-Based Training | Spatial ability is made up of several sub-components, such as the ability to perform mental rotation and object-based transformations. Together with each individual’s attitudes and general skill sets, this specific ability plays an important role in technical professions such as engineering. The components of spatial ability can be enhanced using targeted training or educational programs. This study analyses the levels of spatial skills in first-year engineering students at two universities, one in Spain and one in Peru. The purpose of the study is to establish the extent of symmetry between these study groups in terms of their spatial skills. Initial comparisons indicate that the Peruvian students have a lower level of spatial skill prior to training than their Spanish cohorts. AR-based training delivering representational system content was used with engineering students at both universities to boost spatial abilities. The results obtained indicate the training was effective, as both experimental groups made significant gains in their level of spatial ability. No difference was detected in either experimental group for the variable gender. The comparison of spatial ability gains between both countries is similar, although there is significant difference in the spatial ability component spatial visualization. In this instance, gains in this component were higher amongst the student population in Peru. | [

Innovation and E-Commerce Models, the Technology Catalysts for Sustainable Development: The Emirate of Dubai Case Study | Innovation and e-commerce models are essential in sustainable development globally. They are among the most important technology and innovation catalysts of Dubai’s pillars. Technologies are essential parts of the strategic approach that aims to become a completely paperless city through digitalisation. The analyses begin with reviewing the most relevant literature on sustainable e-commerce and the e-commerce models. Furthermore, the research identifies the innovation and sustainable paradigms most suitable for developing technologies and e-commerce successfully. Finally, the focus is shifted to the best and most innovative and sustainable e-commerce practices adopted by the companies, contextualised in the Emirate of Dubai as a relevant case study. The primary outcome of this research demonstrated how a thriving environment, marked by adequate investments and opportunities provided by the government, supported e-commerce development and technology adoption. Subsequently, those models are matched with sustainable strategies. The analysis is carried out through an organic growth research framework. The results, therefore, provide valuable insights to multiple stakeholders. Indeed, despite some limitations, the Emirates of Dubai can be considered a benchmark in terms of a strategic digitalisation approach, as its ecosystem proves particularly fruitful for e-commerce development and company sales growth. | [

A novel singular spectrum analysis–based baseline-free approach for fatigue-breathing crack identification | Breathing cracks are the most common type of damages that occur in structures subjected to fatigue loading. These breathing cracks induce nonlinearity in the dynamic signatures of the cracked structure which carry useful information about the damage. In this article, we present a new baseline-free algorithm using singular spectrum analysis for breathing crack detection, localization, and characterization. The major advantage of using singular spectrum analysis is that it has the ability to reliably extract the nonlinear harmonics and intermodulation components buried in the noisy components of the response of the structure with breathing crack. A new damage index based on singular spectrum analysis exploiting the nonlinear harmonics and intermodulations in the response is proposed. Numerical simulation studies are carried out to evaluate the proposed damage diagnostic algorithm and later complemented with experimental studies to demonstrate its practical application. | [

Ginzburg-Landau description and emergent supersymmetry of the (3, 8) minimal model | Abstract A pair of the 2D non-unitary minimal models M(2, 5) is known to be equivalent to a variant of the M(3, 10) minimal model. We discuss the RG flow from this model to another non-unitary minimal model, M(3, 8). This provides new evidence for its previously proposed Ginzburg-Landau description, which is a ℤ2 symmetric theory of two scalar fields with cubic interactions. We also point out that M(3, 8) is equivalent to the (2, 8) superconformal minimal model with the diagonal modular invariant. Using the 5-loop results for theories of scalar fields with cubic interactions, we exhibit the 6 − ϵ expansions of the dimensions of various operators. Their extrapolations are in quite good agreement with the exact results in 2D. We also use them to approximate the scaling dimensions in d = 3, 4, 5 for the theories in the M(3, 8) universality class. | [

234 QUANTITATION OF BOVINE VIRAL DIARRHEA VIRUS ASSOCIATED WITH SINGLE ZONA PELLUCIDA-INTACT IN VIVO-DERIVED BOVINE EMBRYOS | Quantitation of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) associated with individual transferable embryos is prerequisite to a thorough assessment of the risk for transmission of BVDV via embryo transfer. One objective of this study was to determine the proportion of in vivo-derived bovine embryos that remained virus-positive after artificial exposure to a high-affinity strain of BVDV and thorough washing. A second objective was to determine the quantity of virus associated with these individual embryos. A total of 87 zona pellucida-intact, Day 7, in vivo-derived bovine embryos were exposed to a type 1 noncytopathic strain of BVDV (SD-1) and washed according to International Embryo Transfer Society recommendations. Subsequently, individual embryos were sonicated, and the RNA was extracted from the sonicate fluids and stored at -80�C until assayed using a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (QPCR). Twenty-six percent (23/87) of the embryos contained virus. The average quantity of virus associated with individual embryos after viral exposure and washing was 1.12 viral copies per 5 �L (SD = 1.57 copies 5 per �L-1; SEM = 0.33 copies 5 per �L-1). Assessment of data using tolerance intervals (P = 0.05) indicates that 90% of contaminated embryos will be associated with ≤4.64 viral copies per 5 �L, whereas 99% of contaminated embryos will be associated with ≤6.62 copies per 5 �L. Obviously, only extremely small quantities of virus were associated with less than one-third of the embryos tested. Based on previous research, it is presumed that this virus is associated with the outer layers of the zona pellucida. A logical next step in the risk assessment would be to determine if these quantities of zona-associated virus are sufficient to infect na�ve recipients and/or embryonic cells after embryos are transferred. Further, similar efforts should be made to estimate the quantity of virus associated with in vitro-derived, zona pellucida-intact, bovine embryos after exposure to the same high-affinity strain of virus and washing. | [

MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF PKI-BASED SYSTEMS USING PROCESS CALCULI | In this paper, we present a process algebra aimed at modelling PKI-based systems. The new language, SPIKY, extends the spi-calculus by adding primitives for the retrieval of certified/uncertified public keys as well as private keys belonging to users of the PKI-based system. SPIKY also formalises the notion of process ownership by PKI users, which is necessary in controlling the semantics of the key retrieval capabilities. We also construct a static analysis for SPIKY that captures the property of term substitutions resulting from message-passing and PKI/cryptographic operations. This analysis is shown to be safe and computable. Finally, we use the analysis to define the term secrecy and peer participation properties for a couple of examples of authentication protocols. | [

Molecular investigation and phylogeny of species of the Anaplasmataceae infecting animals and ticks in Senegal | Abstract Background Our study aimed to assess the diversity of the species of Anaplasmataceae in Senegal that infect animals and ticks in three areas: near Keur Momar Sarr (northern region), Dielmo and Diop (Sine Saloum, central region of Senegal), and in Casamance (southern region of Senegal). Methods A total of 204 ticks and 433 blood samples were collected from ruminants, horses, donkeys and dogs. Ticks were identified morphologically and by molecular characterization targeting the 12S rRNA gene. Molecular characterization of species of Anaplasmataceae infecting Senegalese ticks and animals was conducted using the 23S rRNA, 16S rRNA, rpoB and groEL genes. Results Ticks were identified as Rhipicephalus evertsi evertsi (84.3%), Hyalomma rufipes (8.3%), Hyalomma impeltatum (4.9%), R. bursa (1.5%) and R. muhsamae (0.9%). The overall prevalence of Anaplasmataceae infection in ticks was 0.9%, whereas 41.1% of the sampled animals were found infected by one of the species belonging to this family. We identified the pathogen Anaplasma ovis in 55.9% of sheep, A. marginale and A. centrale in 19.4% and 8.1%, respectively, of cattle, as well as a putative new species of Anaplasmataceae. Two Anaplasma species commonly infecting ruminants were identified. Anaplasma cf. platys, closely related to A. platys was identified in 19.8% of sheep, 27.7% of goats and 22.6% of cattle, whereas a putative new species, named here provisionally “Candidatus Anaplasma africae”, was identified in 3.7% of sheep, 10.3% of goats and 8.1% of cattle. Ehrlichia canis and Anaplasma platys were identified only from dogs sampled in the Keur Momar Sarr area. Ehrlichia canis was identified in 18.8% of dogs and two R. e. evertsi ticks removed from the same sheep. Anaplasma platys was identified in 15.6% of dogs. Neither of the dogs sampled from Casamance region nor the horses and donkeys sampled from Keur Momar Sarr area were found infected by an Anaplasmataceae species. Conclusions This study presents a summary of Anaplasmataceae species that infect animals and ticks in three areas from the northern, central and southern regions of Senegal. To our knowledge, our findings demonstrate for the first time the presence of multiple Anaplasmataceae species that infect ticks and domestic animals in Senegal. We recorded two potentially new species commonly infecting ruminants named here provisionally as Anaplasma cf. platys and “Candidatus Anaplasma africae”. However, E. canis was the only species identified and amplified from ticks. None of the other Anaplasmataceae species identified in animals were identified in the tick species collected from animals. | [

Exact Solutions and Bifurcations of a Modulated Equation in a Discrete Nonlinear Electrical Transmission Line (III) | In this paper, we consider a modulated equation in a discrete nonlinear electrical transmission line. This model is an integrable planar dynamical system having three singular straight lines. By using the theory of singular systems to investigate the dynamical behavior for this system, we obtain bifurcations of phase portraits under different parameter conditions. Corresponding to some special level curves, we derive exact explicit parametric representations of solutions (including smooth solitary wave solutions, peakons, compactons, periodic cusp wave solutions) under different parameter conditions. | [

Abstract 17103: SIRT1 in the Cardiomyocyte Counteracts Doxorubicin Cardiotoxicity in vivo | Background: Cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin (DOX) is mediated through mitochondrial perturbations. SIRT1, an NAD + -dependent deacetylase, has been reported to promote cellular adaptation to metabolic imbalances in part via mitochondrial biogenesis. Hypothesis: SIRT1 in the cardiomyocyte counteracts DOX cardiotoxicity in vivo. Methods: Tamoxifen (Tam)-inducible cardiomyocyte-specific SIRT1 knockout mice (SIRT1 cKO) were used. At 2 months of age, mice received Tam to induce knockout, and mice without Cre recombinase served as wild type (WT). Both groups of mice were treated with DOX (4 IP injections of 5 mg/kg/week) starting at 3 months of age. Echocardiography was performed before and after DOX treatment. Cardiac tissues were sampled after the final DOX injection. H9c2 cardiomyocytes were used for in vitro analysis. Results: At baseline, there were no differences in left ventricular (LV) dimension, thickness, fractional shortening (FS), and ejection fraction (EF) between the groups. DOX significantly reduced FS, EF, and LV thickness in both groups of mice. However, FS and EF after DOX injections were lower in SIRT1 cKO than in WT (FS, 26% vs. 30%; EF, 59% vs. 65%, P Conclusions: The results suggested that SIRT1 in the cardiomyocyte counteracts DOX cardiotoxicity by preserving mitochondrial content in vivo. Enhanced degradation, but not impaired biogenesis, may be involved in mitochondrial depletion in SIRT1 cKO. | [

Multiparametric Attenuation and Backscatter Images for Characterization of Carotid Plaque | The goal of this study was to develop methods for quantitative ultrasound imagery suitable for noninvasive assessment of carotid plaque composition prior to the selection of the technique for revascularization. Using two broadband transducers (5–12 MHz and 12–28 MHz), backscattered radio frequency signals were acquired from entire lengths of 15 carotid endarterectomy specimens. Spectral analysis methods with correction for system response and beam diffraction were applied to radio frequency signals from local volumes of plaque having a 2 mm slice thickness, 1 mm width and axial depth of 480 μm and 240 μm at 10 MHz and 20 MHz, respectively. From these spectra, local values of four ultrasound parameters (integrated backscatter, frequency dependence of backscatter, integrated attenuation and slope of attenuation) were estimated and used to construct quantitative images. To combine information from these different parameter images, a two-step approach was followed. First, in 59 independent quantitative images of highly stenotic plaque, the average parameter values in a central five-by-three pixel region were correlated with plaque composition as assessed by histology to investigate the relationship between parameter values, frequency bandwidth and plaque composition. Discriminant analysis of parameter values vs. plaque composition was made to find a set of predictive equations to classify sets of measurements. Correct classification was obtained for 100% of calcified, 75% of intraplaque hemorrhage and 71 % of lipidic plaques of the input data set. Second, each set of pixels from different parameter images was classified using the predictive equations, and a single, local tissue composition image was constructed. Examples of tissue composition images are presented in comparison with corresponding histologic sections. Both agreement and disagreement between image pairs are discussed. | [

Using a Mobile Phone to Demonstrate Thermal Properties of Materials | Mobile phones are a widely used platform for educational apps, mobile health, and a variety of chemical tests. Here, we are working on a mobile phone-based physics lab (mPhysics) that uses a mobile phone’s capabilities to run simple physics experiments and demonstrations. While a mobile phone can be used to analyze magnetic and optical properties of materials using built-in sensors, thermal analysis has never been incorporated into a mobile phone. Here, we propose to integrate thermochromic sensing with the image processing conducted on a mobile phone for in-class or in-lab demonstration of thermal properties of materials. We make inexpensive and nontoxic materials based on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) mixed with a thermochromic pigment that changes color from blue to white when heated. This material can be used to visualize such phenomena as change of temperature, thermal conductivity, and heat capacity. Then, the smartphone camera and a custom app can be used to track local color changes and translate them into different thermal properties. We propose to use this approach for experimental education of high school and undergraduate students. | [

Review of Serologically Confirmed Cases of Transfusion-Related Acute Lung Injury Reported to a Blood Center. | Abstract We reviewed 13 cases of serologically confirmed Transfusion-Related Acute Lung Injury (TRALI) reported to our blood center over a five-year period. Cognate antigen-antibody pairs were noted, as well as product transfused, indication for transfusion, onset of symptoms related to transfusion and time to resolution. All patients demonstrated bilateral pulmonary edema on CXR. Onset of symptoms for all cases occurred during transfusion of implicated product, or within one hour post-transfusion. All donors of implicated products were multiparous females. The majority of implicated products (77%) were FFP. There were 3 TRALI deaths, all resulted from transfusion of FFP. Anti-neutrophil, HLA Class I and/or Class II antibodies were identified in all fatal cases. Platelets comprised 15% of implicated products, and RBC’s only a single case (7 %). Among patients with TRALI receiving FFP, the most common indication was reversal of anticoagulation (50%). Chart review in two cases indicated Vitamin K in lieu of FFP may have been appropriate.

DR 53 DQ 5 60% 13 FFP GI Bleed 2 days Not tested Neg DR 52 60% In our small series, the majority of implicated products were FFP, and all products were from multiparous females. Production of FFP exclusively from male donors is currently under consideration. Although male donor plasma can be expected to reduce the risk of TRALI associated with transfusion of FFP, it will not eliminate it entirely. Therefore, the risk of TRALI should be factored into the decision to transfuse all products. FFP should be administered cautiously for all indications, including reversal of anticoagulation. | [
