Abstract
The neonate distress cry, which displays a similar acoustic structure across a range of mammalian species, is highly effective in attracting, even compelling, parental care. However, if this cry is defective, as found in human and rodent neonates with poor neurobehavioral function, is the signal less enticing? Using playback recordings of a ewe's own co-twins as stimuli in a two choice test, we compared the preference of each sheep dam for acoustic features of lamb distress calls to assess the impact of signal quality on maternal response. The results of this study indicate that lamb vocalizations with acoustic parameters reflecting poor vocal fold engagement and arousal were less likely to be preferred by their dam. Additionally, these calls were associated with delayed vocal initiation and poor infant survival behavior suggestive of subtle cognitive deficit; and support the possibility that, as in deer and rodents, ovine vocalizations within a specific fundamental frequency range may well be a trigger for optimal maternal behavior. This research has important implications for understanding failed maternal-young interactions in ungulate and other species, and for verifying standardization of infant stimuli used in maternal behavior studies.

Abstract
We report novel in situ speciated observations of monoterpenes (α- and β-pinene, myrcene, δ3-carene, ocimene, limonene) in seawater and air during three cruises in the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, in/over generally oligotrophic waters. Oceanic concentrations of the individual monoterpenes ranged from below the detection limit of <1 pmol L-1 to 5 pmol L-1, with average concentrations of between 0.5 and 2.9 pmol L-1. After careful filtering for contamination, atmospheric mixing ratios varied from below the detection limit (<1 pptv) to 5 pptv, with averages of 0.05-5 pptv; these levels are up to 2 orders of magnitude lower than those reported previously. This could be at least partly due to sampling over waters with much lower biological activity than in previous studies. Unlike in previous studies, no clear relationships of the monoterpenes with biological variables were found. Based on our measured seawater concentrations and a global model simulation, we estimate total global marine monoterpene emissions of 0.16 Tg C yr-1, similar to a previous bottom-up estimate based on laboratory monoculture studies but 2 orders of magnitude lower than a previous top-down estimate of 29.5 Tg C yr-1.

Abstract
Acoustic features of infant distress vocalizations including latency and rate of emission are used as indices of neurological deficit and integrity in human and rodent neonates. This paper investigates the relationship between temporal characteristics of distress calls, elicited by an isolation stimulus, and indicators of neurobehavioral development over 12 hr postpartum in the neonate lamb. Delayed vocalization initiation was found to be associated with poor locomotor and orientation behavior reflecting the capacity of the lamb to reunite with and follow its dam, and a lowered rate of signal emission following commencement of vocalization. Animals demonstrating delayed vocalization initiation also appeared more likely to be of a birth weight predisposed to fetal distress, and to urinate when exposed to a novel environment. Based on these preliminary studies, we propose that compromised emission of vocal signals is indicative of neurobehavioral deficit in the neonate lamb.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Previous studies found differences in treatment patterns and costs by SOC for first-line chemotherapy treatment for both early stage and metastatic breast cancer (esBC and mBC) in commercial populations. This study extends the research to a predominantly Medicare population comparing chemotherapy treatment patterns, cost and quality of care in physician office (PO) and hospital outpatient (HO) centers.
Methods: First-line chemotherapy or biologic therapy for esBC and mBC patients was compared by SOC. Patients initiating infusion therapy in 2008–2012 were identified in Humana medical claims data. First-line length of therapy (LOT) in days and number of infusions (NI) were calculated. SOC cohort (HO vs PO) was based on where the patient received ≥90% of their infusions. Total healthcare costs based on medical and pharmacy claims were assessed. Differences in quality indicators, use of infusions or hospitalizations 30 days prior to death were evaluated. SOC differences were assessed using X2, T-tests and Wilcoxon Rank Sum (Wil) tests. P-values are for X2 and Wil tests. Cost-related results are from generalized linear models adjusted for age, sex, comorbidity and geographic region. LOT and NI are presented as median (IQR).
Results: A total of 2,784 esBC patients (73% PO and 27% HO) and 1,602 mBC patients (64% PO and 36% HO) were identified. Most patients (67%) were Medicare beneficiaries. Mean comorbidity index was similar by SOC for esBC patients (PO 4.2, HO 4.1, p=0.3308) but higher in HO for mBC patients (PO 7.5, HO 7.9, p=0.0003). LOT in days for esBC was greater in the PO for anthracycline-based therapy, PO 64(43-72), HO 47(43-64), p=0.0420 and taxane-based therapy, PO 64(64-106), HO 64(64-76), p=0.0005. NI for esBC was greater in the PO for patients on biologic and cytotoxic therapy, PO 21(17-29), HO 18(16-25), p=0.038 and taxane–based therapy PO 4(4-6), HO 4(4-4), p=0.0005.
No difference in LOT by SOC was seen for mBC patients; however, patients on taxane-based therapy had a greater NI at the PO 6(4-12) vs HO 5.5(4-9), p=0.0225.
Total healthcare costs were higher in the HO vs PO setting for esBC and mBC patients. Costs were 22% higher in the HO $51,191 vs PO $41,943, p<0.0001 for esBC patients and 17% higher in the HO $58,105 vs PO $49,591, p<0.0001 for mBC patients.
There were no statistically significant differences in use of infusions or hospitalizations 30 days prior to death among Medicare patients. Among 223 esBC and 369 mBC Medicare patients who died, use of infusions prior to death was 24% for HO and 16% for PO among esBC, p=0.2357 and 23% for HO and 26% for PO among mBC, p=0.5319. Hospitalizations prior to death were 59% for HO and 59% for PO for esBC, p=0.9940 and 60% for HO and 55% for PO for mBC, p=0.3105.
Conclusion: Differences by site of care, particularly in healthcare costs, were found in a mostly Medicare population of esBC and mBC patients. Patients in the HO setting had shorter length of therapy and fewer infusions, but had higher total healthcare costs than those in the PO setting. Quality indicators, infusions and hospitalizations prior to death were similar by site of care. Future research will focus on other quality indicators and patient satisfaction.

Abstract
This study examined the relationship of sex-role typology, medical and psychiatric symptomatology, and personality functioning in adolescents. Seventy-nine males and 101 females with an average age of 18.3 were administered the Bem Sex Role Inventory (BSRI), Offer Self Image Questionnaire (OSIQ), Self Rating Depression Scale (SRDS), and Cornell Medical Index (CMI). In comparison to males, females reported significantly more medical and psychiatric symptomatology, including depression. Females were also found to have more concern and empathy for others and a better developed superego. They reported greater involvement in making future plans and were more conservative in their sexual attitudes. Sex-role typology yielded no significant differences on the medical and psychiatric scales, but consistent differences were found on the OSIQ, a measure of adolescent personality functioning. In general, the results indicated that androgynous teenagers in every case differed from the undifferentiated ones, with the masculine and feminine groups occupying a mid-position. Androgynous individuals always showed a more favorable adjustment. Undifferentiated individuals had a poorer defensive structure, less adequate coping mechanisms and affective integration, more confusion about body boundaries, and more difficulty in object relations. Androgynous individuals, in short, possessed adaptive capabilities and resources, such as effective coping techniques, emotional integration, communication skills, and a well-defined self-concept (i.e., ego strength and a high level of psychological integration). Since these results were obtained on a measure constructed solely to assess adolescent functioning, it seems possible to screen and identify adolescents who may be entering adulthood lacking the emotional, social, and occupational capacity to function in an optimal fashion.

Abstract
The effectiveness of different decontamination treatments in reducing microbial loads on cattle hides was assessed. The 10-s hide treatments were conducted using a wet-and-dry vacuum cleaner filled with one of the liquids (heated to 50 °C) indicated below, followed or not by 10-min drying in the air. Also, the hide was clipped, followed or not by 10-s singeing using a hand-held blowtorch. Before and after each decontamination treatment, the hide was sampled (100 cm(2) areas) by a sponge-swabbing method to compare the total viable counts of bacteria (TVC). The largest bacterial reduction (P<0.001; 2.31log(10) cfu/cm(2)) was achieved by singeing of previously clipped hide. Treatment of hide with a food industry sanitizer solution (10% Betane Plus) resulted in significant reductions of 1.80 (P<0.001) and 1.98log(10) cfu/cm(2) (P<0.001) without and with subsequent drying, respectively. Treatment of hide with a food industry disinfectant (P3-Topactive DES) significantly reduced TVC by 0.97 (P<0.001) and 1.18log(10) cfu/cm(2) (P<0.001) without and with subsequent drying, respectively. Treatments of hide with water alone or with a food-safe detergent solution (Formula 963B), or hide clipping alone, did not produce significant decontamination effects. Since hide contamination is associated with microbial contamination of the carcasses, the results indicate that post-killing/pre-skinning hide decontamination (used alone, or in combination with carcass decontamination) has a potential to improve microbial meat safety. Nevertheless, further research is required to optimise the efficacy of these treatments in the reduction of specific pathogens under commercial conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) is increasingly recognised in patients presenting with features of acute coronary syndrome. We present a single centre experience of TC with medium term follow up. METHODS Fifty-two consecutive patients presenting with a diagnosis of TC were included. The clinical presentation, complications, baseline and follow-up echocardiograms and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were analysed. RESULTS Fifty-one patients were female. A stressful event preceded presentation in 37 (71%) patients. Chest pain was the most common symptom (83%). Two patients presented with an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. ST segment elevation (40%) and global T wave inversion (44%) were the most frequent electrocardiogram changes. Left ventricular assessment demonstrated typical apical ballooning in 41 patients and 11 patients demonstrated the mid-wall variant. In-hospital complications occurred in 11 patients (21%) and included acute pulmonary oedema (n = 2), cardiogenic shock (n = 5); two of whom had a significant left ventricular outflow gradient, atrial fibrillation (n = 1), left ventricular thrombus (n = 2) and a cerebrovascular event (n = 2). Left ventricular function at presentation and follow up was compared in 40 patients. The mean ejection fraction in this group at presentation was 47% (20-70%) compared with that at follow up of 63% (44-76%). There were no significant complications or recurrences at follow up. CONCLUSIONS While TC is a reversible condition with low rates of complications and recurrence at follow up it is, as demonstrated in our cohort, associated with significant in-hospital morbidity in a proportion of patients.

Abstract
Topical antimicrobial treatment is indicated for mild to moderate acne vulgaris. Our literature review includes searches of Ovid, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the databases of the Cochrane Library. A detailed search strategy is included. All searches were limited to controlled trials and systematic reviews. No year limits were applied to the searches, but we focused on trials, guidelines, and reviews published since 2004, the year that the last review of topical antimicrobials was published in this journal. Several controlled trials demonstrate that benzoyl peroxide, topical antibiotics, and topical retinoids used in combination provide the greatest efficacy and safety profile for the treatment of mild to moderate acne, but there are few trials directly comparing different combinations of these topical therapies with one another. Additionally, robust studies comparing cost and efficacy of generic combinations of the above agents with proprietary fixed-dose combination therapies that may increase compliance are also lacking. Although they have not been extensively studied, alternative agents including dapsone, salicylic acid, azelaic acid, and zinc are safe and efficacious when combined with traditional therapies.

Abstract
This paper presents an applied workflow for displaying seismic multi-attributes and integrating the results into the interpretation of a carbonate reservoir. This analysis compares the processed volume of the conventional P-wave data (PP) with the S-wave data (SH-SH) over the same extended area to improve understanding of the morphology of the reef “build-up” structure within the Canyon Reef Formation. The final goal is to identify bypassed compartments in the reservoir.
