A critical period for functional vestibular development in zebrafish

We have determined a critical period for vestibular development in zebrafish by using a bioreactor designed by NASA to simulate microgravity for cells in culture. A critical period is defined as the briefest period of time during development when stimulus deprivation results in long lasting or permanent sensory deficits. Zebrafish eggs were collected within 3 hours of being laid and fertilized. In experiment 1, eggs were placed in the bioreactor at 3, 24, 30, 36, 48, or 72 hours postfertilization (hPF) and maintained in the bioreactor until 96 hPF. In experiment 2, eggs were placed in the bioreactor immediately after they were collected and maintained in the bioreactor until 24, 36, 48, 60, 66, 72, or 96 hPF. Beginning at 96 hPF, all larvae had their vestibulo-ocular reflexes (VOR) evaluated once each day for 5 days. Only larvae that hatched from eggs that were placed in the bioreactor before 30 hPF in experiment 1 or removed from the bioreactor later than 66 hPF in experiment 2 had VOR deficits that persisted for at least 5 days. These data suggest a critical period for vestibular development in the zebrafish that begins before 30 hPF and ends after 66 hPF. To confirm this, zebrafish eggs were placed in the bioreactor at 24 hPF and removed at 72 hPF. VORs were evaluated in these larvae once each day for 5 days beginning at 96 hPF. These larvae had VOR deficits that persisted for at least 5 days. In addition, larvae that had been maintained in the bioreactor from 24 to 66 hPF or from 30 to 72 hPF, had only temporary VOR deficits. In a final experiment, zebrafish eggs were placed in the bioreactor at 3 hPF and removed at 96 hPF but the bioreactor was turned off from 24 hPF to 72 hPF. These larvae had normal VORs when they were removed from the bioreactor at 96 hPF. Taken as a whole, these data support the idea that there is a critical period for functional maturation of the zebrafish vestibular system. The developmental period identified includes the timeframe during which the vestibular primary afferent neurons are born, innervate their central and peripheral targets, and remodel their central projections.

Different Levels of Eccentric Resistance during Eight Weeks of Training Affect Muscle Strength and Lean Tissue Mass

Coupling concentric and eccentric muscle contractions appears to be important in the development of muscle strength and hypertrophy. The interim Resistive Exercise Device (iRED) currently used aboard the International Space Station does not seem to be as effective as free weight training in ambulatory subjects and has not completely protected against muscular deconditioning due to space flight. The lack of protection during space flight could be caused by iRED's proportionally lower eccentric resistance (60-70%) compared to concentric resistance. PURPOSE: To determine the effects of 8 wks of lower body resistive exercise training using five levels of eccentric resistance on muscle strength and lean tissue mass. METHODS: Forty untrained males (34.9 +/- 7 yrs, 80.9 +/- 9.8 kg, 178.2 +/- 7.1 cm; mean +/- SD) completed three 1-repetition maximum (1-RM) strength tests for both the supine leg press (LP) and supine heel raise (HR) prior to training; subjects were matched for LP strength and randomly assigned to one of five training groups. Concentric load (% 1-RM) was constant across groups during training, but each group trained with different levels of eccentric load (0%, 33%, 66%, 100%, or 138% of concentric). Subjects trained 3 d / wk for 8 wks using a periodized program for LP and HR based on percentages of the highest pre-training 1-RM. LP and HR 1-RM and leg lean mass (LLM; assessed by DEXA) were measured pre- and post-training. A two-way ANOVA was used to analyze all dependent measures. Tukey's post hoc tests were used to test significant main effects. Within group pre- to post-training changes were compared using paired t-tests with a Bonferroni adjustment. Statistical significance was set a priori at p 0.05. All data are expressed as mean +/- SE. RESULTS: LP 1-RM strength increased significantly in all groups pre- to post-training. The 138% group increase (20.1 +/- 3.7%) was significantly greater than the 0% (7.9 +/- 2.8%), 33% (7.7 +/- 4.6%), and 66% (7.5 +/- 4.3%) groups. All groups significantly increased HR strength pre- to posttraining (33%: 7.5 +/- 6.1%; 66%: 6.6 +/- 3.7%; 100%: 12.2 +/- 1.8%; 138%: 11.0 +/- 6.4%) except for the 0% (4.9 +/- 9.1%) group. There were no differences between groups. LLM increased significantly pre- to post-training in only the 138% group; there were no differences between groups. CONCLUSIONS: Eight wks of lower body resistive exercise training with eccentric overload resulted in greater increases in LP strength than training with eccentric loads of 66% or less. Post-training HR strength was not affected by eccentric training load, perhaps because of the predominance of Type I fibers typical in the gastrocnemius. Only 138% eccentric training significantly increased LLM. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: For athletes or others desiring to maximize muscle strength and hypertrophy gains, training with eccentric loads greater than 100% of concentric resistance will provide greater increases in muscle strength and lean tissue mass in some muscle groups. In a rehabilitation or geriatric exercise setting that places primary emphasis on program adherence and moderate strength gains, training with an eccentric underload may provide strength increases comparable to those of traditional 1:1 training but with less muscle soreness and physiologic insult to the patient, but this has yet to be proven.

Arrangement for a gas turbine combustion engine

An arrangement (10) for delivering gases from combustors (15) to a first row of blades. The arrangement (10) includes at least an upstream flow path (60) including an aft first side wall (64) and a downstream flow path (62) including a forward second side wall (66). A convergence junction trailing edge (40) is defined at a downstream terminal edge (41) of the first side wall (64), and the second side wall (66) converges toward the first side wall (64) in the direction of the convergence junction trailing edge (40). An impingement sheet structure (78) is located between and provides impingement cooling air to the first and second side walls (64, 66). Openings (88) provide a cooling air passage between the first and second side walls (64, 66) and provide a flow of post impingement air into the gas path at the convergence junction trailing edge (40).

How profitable is switchgrass in Illinois, USA? An economic definition of marginal land

Decisions regarding the conversion of land from an existing crop to bioenergy crops are critical for the sustainable production of both food and fuels. This study seeks to establish criteria for delineating land as “economically marginal”, and thus suited for growing switchgrass. In this case study of an Illinois agricultural field, the profitability of switchgrass, with farmgate prices of $\$44$ Mg –1 , $\$66$ Mg –1 , or $\$88$ Mg –1 , was compared to corn and soybean crop prices. Further, the study also evaluates the profitability of switchgrass when replacing corn-based yield estimates from the Soil Productivity Index (SPI) of Illinois. Based on a dry-matter yield of 10.45 Mg ha –1 , switchgrass can compete with soybeans only at the high price of $\$88$ Mg –1 , but depending on location, can compete with corn at $\$66$ Mg –1 . Across Illinois, at $\$88$ ha –1 , all Illinois land with SPI < 100% and 95% of land under SPI class C (SPI 100–116) is profitable under switchgrass. Switchgrass may not be profitable relative to corn grown in the SPI class A (SPI > 133) and only 7% of class B (SPI 117–132). Our results show that land with drainage and erosion limitations is economically marginal when corn and soybean yields are low, and the farmgate price for switchgrass is greater than $\$66$ Mg –1 . However, this may not be possible on land where switchgrass is replacing frequent soybean rotations (corn–soybean ratio ≤ 1). Land used to produce only soybeans may only be marginal at the farmgate price of $\$88$ Mg –1 . Further studies need to be conducted to identify how much land can be converted to switchgrass without harming corn production.

Optical Characterization of the SPT-3G Camera

The third-generation South Pole Telescope camera is designed to measure the cosmic microwave background across three frequency bands (centered at 95, 150 and 220 GHz) with ~ 16,000 transition-edge sensor (TES) bolometers. Each multichroic array element on a detector wafer has a broadband sinuous antenna that couples power to six TESs, one for each of the three observing bands and both polarizations, via lumped element filters. Ten detector wafers populate the detector array, which is coupled to the sky via a large-aperture optical system. Here we present the frequency band characterization with Fourier transform spectroscopy, measurements of optical time constants, beam properties, and optical and polarization efficiencies of the detector array. The detectors have frequency bands consistent with our simulations and have high average optical efficiency which is 86, 77 and 66% for the 95, 150 and 220 GHz detectors. The time constants of the detectors are mostly between 0.5 and 5 ms. The beam is round with the correct size, and the polarization efficiency is more than 90% for most of the bolometers.

The distinct conditions of atmospheric and underground nuclear tests revealed by Zn isotopic compositions of nuclear debris samples

We analyzed the Zn isotopic compositions of nuclear debris samples from atmospheric and underground nuclear tests. Samples from the site of atmospheric tests exhibit a range of Zn isotopic fractionation (δ 66 Zn JMC-Lyon = 0.23–0.86 ‰) while samples from underground tests exhibit Zn isotopic compositions with minimal variation among samples and from terrestrial igneous rock standards (δ 66 ZnJMC-Lyon = 0.28–0.39 ‰). In conclusion, the larger range of δ 66 Zn JMC-Lyon observed in atmospheric test samples relative to underground test samples is likely the result of the open system characteristics of atmospheric nuclear tests and the closed system characteristics of underground nuclear tests.

Clinical Application of a Novel Hybrid Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy Technique for Stage III Lung Cancer and Dosimetric Comparison With Four Other Techniques

Purpose: In large stage III lung tumors, planning delivery of doses exceeding 60 Gy can be challenging and time consuming. Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) can improve target coverage but may increase volumes receiving low-dose irradiation. We clinically implemented a novel hybrid IMRT (h-IMRT) technique that allowed plans to be produced quickly, and compared these plans with 4 other techniques. Methods and Materials: h-IMRT was used to treat 14 consecutive patients with planning target volumes (PTVs) exceeding 500 cm{sup 3} (average, 779 cm{sup 3}) with concurrent chemo-radiation therapy to 66 Gy. h-IMRT plans consisted of 2 components: an anterior-posterior/posterior-anterior/posterior-anterior (AP-PA-PA) oblique, open-field technique delivering an average dose of 58 Gy, plus a 3-field IMRT component optimized to achieve a final homogeneous dose of 66 Gy. Total lung V{sub 20} and contralateral lung V{sub 5} were kept as low as possible but preferably less than 35% and less than 50%, respectively. All plans were retrospectively replanned using a 5- to 9-field 3-dimensional conformal technique, full RapidArc, 6-field full IMRT, and a hybrid RapidArc (h-RapidArc) technique similar to the h-IMRT. Results: The h-IMRT, h-RapidArc, and full RapidArc plans could be generated in less than 2 h, with the first 2 plans achieving the lowest V{sub 5} (36%) and V{sub 20} (30%) values together with the smallest hot spots. Both the 3-dimensional conformal and full IMRT plans occasionally led to unacceptable hot spots outside the PTV. Full RapidArc plans were fast and achieved comparable V{sub 20} values but led to slightly higher V{sub 5} values. Conclusions: Both h-IMRT and h-RapidArc permitted delivery of 66 Gy to large stage III lung tumors, and both were superior to either full IMRT or RapidArc plans for reducing lung doses. The clinical significance of small increases in V{sub 5} during chemo-radiation therapy delivery are unknown, but the present study suggests that h-IMRT and h-RapidArc are preferable for treatment of large tumors.

Receipt of Guideline-Concordant Treatment in Elderly Prostate Cancer Patients

Purpose: To examine the proportion of elderly prostate cancer patients receiving guideline-concordant treatment, using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare linked database. Methods and Materials: A total of 29,001 men diagnosed in 2004-2007 with localized prostate cancer, aged 66 to 79 years, were included. We characterized the proportion of men who received treatment concordant with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines, stratified by risk group and age. Logistic regression was used to examine covariates associated with receipt of guideline-concordant management. Results: Guideline concordance was 79%-89% for patients with low- or intermediate-risk disease. Among high-risk patients, 66.6% of those aged 66-69 years received guideline-concordant management, compared with 51.9% of those aged 75-79 years. Discordance was mainly due to conservative management—no treatment or hormone therapy alone. Among the subgroup of patients aged ≤76 years with no measured comorbidity, findings were similar. On multivariable analysis, older age (75-79 vs 66-69 years, odds ratio 0.51, 95% confidence interval 0.50-0.57) was associated with a lower likelihood of guideline concordance for high-risk prostate cancer, but comorbidity was not. Conclusions: There is undertreatment of elderly but healthy patients with high-risk prostate cancer, the most aggressive form of this disease.

Carbon Ion Irradiation of the Rat Spinal Cord: Dependence of the Relative Biological Effectiveness on Linear Energy Transfer

Purpose: To measure the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of carbon ions in the rat spinal cord as a function of linear energy transfer (LET). Methods and Materials: As an extension of a previous study, the cervical spinal cord of rats was irradiated with single doses of carbon ions at 6 positions of a 6-cm spread-out Bragg peak (16-99 keV/μm). The TD{sub 50} values (dose at 50% complication probability) were determined according to dose-response curves for the development of paresis grade 2 within an observation time of 300 days. The RBEs were calculated using TD{sub 50} for photons of our previous study. Results: Minimum latency time was found to be dose-dependent, but not significantly LET-dependent. The TD{sub 50} values for the onset of paresis grade 2 within 300 days were 19.5 ± 0.4 Gy (16 keV/μm), 18.4 ± 0.4 Gy (21 keV/μm), 17.7 ± 0.3 Gy (36 keV/μm), 16.1 ± 1.2 Gy (45 keV/μm), 14.6 ± 0.5 Gy (66 keV/μm), and 14.8 ± 0.5 Gy (99 keV/μm). The corresponding RBEs increased from 1.26 ± 0.05 (16 keV/μm) up to 1.68 ± 0.08 at 66 keV/μm. Unexpectedly, the RBE at 99 keV/μm was comparable to that at 66 keV/μm. Conclusions: The data suggest a linear relation between RBE and LET at high doses for late effects in the spinal cord. Together with additional data from ongoing fractionated irradiation experiments, these data will provide an extended database to systematically benchmark RBE models for further improvements of carbon ion treatment planning.

Template-Assisted, Seed-Mediated Synthesis of Hierarchically Mesoporous Core–Shell UiO-66: Enhancing Adsorption Capacity and Catalytic Activity through Iterative Growth

A hierarchically mesoporous (HM) UiO-66-F 4 shell with ~8 nm mesopores can be iteratively grown on top of UiO-66 nanoparticle (NP) seeds over several cycles templated by Pluronic F-127 micelles. Presumably, the Pluronic micelles that were formed in water can surround UiO-66 NPs to facilitate the overgrowth of an HM-UiO-66-F 4 shell in the presence of Zr IV precursors and BDC-F 4 linkers. The UiO-66 NP seeds play an important role in directing the continuous growth of the HM-UiO-66-F 4 shell, as only a nonporous phase was obtained in their absence. Furthermore, this template-assisted, seed-mediated method can be extended to produce other UiO-66-X (X = (OH) 2 , (COOH) 2 , etc.) shells, demonstrating its generality for the UiO-66 family of metal–organic frameworks. Notably, the incorporation of mesopores into the thrice-overgrown UiO-66@HM|3rd-UiO-66-F 4 materials leads to impressive enhancements in the per-mass uptake capacity of Direct Blue 86, a large anionic dye: 320% better than the parent UiO-66 seeds and 150% better than that for a [UiO-66 + UiO-66-F 4 ] physical mixture at the same mass proportion. Similar enhancements were also observed in the catalyzed oxidation of thioanisole.

Tuning the Wettability of Metal–Organic Frameworks via Defect Engineering for Efficient Oil/Water Separation

Zirconium-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted interest due to their chemical and thermal stabilities and structural tunability. In this article, we demonstrate the tuning of the wettability of a UiO-66 structure via defect-engineering for efficient oil/water separation. UiO-66 crystals with controlled levels of missing-linker defects were synthesized using a modulation approach. As a result, the hydrophilicity of the defect-engineered UiO-66 (d-UiO-66) can be varied. In addition, a thin layer of hydrophilic d-UiO-66 was successfully fabricated on a series of stainless steel meshes (d-UiO-66@mesh), which exhibited excellent superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic properties and displayed interesting separation performance for various oil/water mixtures.
