Brix refractometry in serum as a measure of failure of passive transfer compared to measured immunoglobulin G and total protein by refractometry in serum from dairy calves. Vet J 2015; 211:82-7. [PMID: 26993533 DOI: 10.1016/j.tvjl.2015.11.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2015] [Revised: 10/12/2015] [Accepted: 11/08/2015] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
A series of trials were conducted to evaluate Brix refractometry (Brix %) for the assessment of failure of passive transfer (FPT) in dairy calves compared to: (1) serum IgG (reference standard) when measured by radial immunodiffusion (RID) or a turbidometric immunoassay (TIA), and (2) serum total protein refractometry (STP). For the serum samples tested with TIA, STP, and Brix % (n = 310; Holstein calves), the median concentrations were 21.3 g/L IgG, 58 g/L STP, and 9.2%, respectively. For the serum samples tested with RID, STP and Brix % (n = 112; Jersey calves), the mean concentrations were 38 g/L IgG, 68 g/L STP, and 10.2%, respectively. For samples tested with only Brix % and STP (n = 265; Holstein calves), median STP and Brix % were 50 g/L STP and 8.5%, respectively. Correlations between Brix % and RID, and between Brix % and TIA were equal (r = 0.79, respectively). Brix % and STP were positively correlated (r = 0.99). Brix % estimated serum IgG concentrations determined by TIA and RID (r(2) = 0.63, 0.62, respectively). When FPT was defined as serum IgG < 10 g/L, Brix % ≤ 8.5% showed optimal sensitivity (100%) and specificity (89.2%) to predict FPT. At the same IgG cut-point, an STP value of ≤ 52 g/L showed a similar sensitivity (100%) and specificity (80.4%) to predict FPT. Brix refractometry predicted successful transfer of passive immunity in dairy calves, but further evaluation as a diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of FPT is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the efficacy of Steps to Growing Up Healthy, an obesity prevention intervention in preschool-age, urban-dwelling minority children. STUDY DESIGN Thirty-two pediatric primary care clinicians used a brief (3- to 5-minute) evidence-based behavior change intervention with low-income mothers of children aged 2-4 years during each regularly scheduled clinic visit over a 12-month period to target 4 specific obesogenic behaviors (milk consumption, juice and sugar-sweetened beverage consumption, television/screen time, and physical activity). A written contract, self-monitoring calendar, and telephone follow-up at 5-7 days after the clinic visit reinforced the intervention. Body mass index (BMI) percentile over 12 months and obesogenic behaviors were compared with those of a sex- and age-matched historical control group drawn from the same clinic. RESULTS Between January 2009 and November 2012, 418 mother-child dyads (82% Hispanic and 18% African American; mean child age, 35.8 ± 8.6 months; 21% overweight and 21% obese children) participated (218 in the control group and 200 in the intervention group). At 12 months, BMI percentile decreased by 0.33 percentile in the intervention group, compared with a mean increase of 8.75 percentile in the control group (P < .001). In participants with an initial BMI <85th percentile, BMI percentile did not change over time in the intervention group but increased in the control group (from the 48th ± 21 to 63th ± 29 percentile; P < .01). At 12 months, consumption of juice and milk were decreased in the intervention group (P < .001). CONCLUSION A brief, evidence-based intervention targeting 4 behaviors, coupled with a written contract and telephone follow-up, decreased the rate of increase in BMI percentile in young children, especially in normal weight children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between food insecurity and child obesity is unclear. Few studies have examined dietary patterns in children with regard to household food security and weight status. The aim of this study was to examine the association between household food security, dietary intake, and BMI percentile in low-income, preschool children. METHODS Low-income caregivers (n=222) with children ages 2-4 years were enrolled in a primary-care-based obesity prevention/reversal study (Steps to Growing Up Healthy) between October 2010 and December 2011. At baseline, demographic data, household food security status (US Household Food Security Instrument) and dietary intake (Children's Dietary Questionnaire; CDQ) were collected. BMI percentile was calculated from anthropometric data. RESULTS Participating children were primarily Hispanic (90%), Medicaid insured (95%), 50% female, 35±8.7 months of age (mean±standard deviation), 19% overweight (BMI 85th-94th percentile), and 29% obese (≥95th percentile). Thirty-eight percent of interviews were conducted in Spanish. Twenty-five percent of households reported food insecurity. There was no association between household food insecurity and child BMI percentile. Dietary patterns of the children based on the CDQ did not differ by household food security status. Food group subscale scores (fruit and vegetable, fat from dairy, sweetened beverages, and noncore foods) on the CDQ did not differ between normal weight and overweight/obese children. Maternal depression and stress did not mediate the relationship between household food insecurity and child weight status. Hispanic children were more likely to be overweight or obese in both food-secure and food-insecure households. CONCLUSIONS Household food insecurity was not associated with child BMI percentile in this study. Dietary intake patterns of children from food-insecure households were not different compared to those from food-secure households.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Leading medical organizations have called on primary care pediatricians to take a central role in the prevention of childhood obesity. Weight counseling typically has not been incorporated into routine pediatric practice due to time and training constraints. Brief interventions with simple behavior change messages are needed to reach high-risk children, particularly Latino and Black children who are disproportionately affected by obesity and related comorbidities. Steps to Growing Up Healthy (Added Value) is a randomized controlled trial testing the efficacy of brief motivational counseling (BMC) delivered by primary care clinicians and the added value of supplementing BMC with monthly contact by community health workers (CHW) in the prevention/reversal of obesity in Latino and Black children ages 2-4 years old. METHODS/DESIGN Mother-child dyads (targeted n = 150) are recruited for this 12-month randomized trial at an inner-city pediatric primary care clinic and randomized to: 1) BMC delivered by clinicians and nurses at well, sick, and WIC visits with the goal of reducing obesogenic behaviors (BMC); 2) BMC plus monthly phone calls by a CHW (BMC + Phone); or 3) BMC plus monthly home visits by a CHW (BMC + Home). During BMC, the medical team facilitates the selection of a specific goal (i.e., reduce sugar sweetened beverage consumption) that is meaningful to the mother and teaches the mother simple behavioral strategies. Monthly contacts with CHWs are designed to identify and overcome barriers to goal progress. Dyads are assessed at baseline and 12 months and the primary outcome is change in the child's BMI percentile. We hypothesize that BMC + Phone and BMC + Home will produce greater reductions in BMI percentiles than BMC alone and that BMC + Home will produce greater reductions in BMI percentiles than BMC + Phone. DISCUSSION Steps to Growing Up Healthy will provide important information about whether a brief primary care-based intervention that utilizes a motivational interviewing and goal setting approach can be incorporated into routine care and is sufficient to prevent/reverse obesity in young children. The study will also explore whether monthly contact with a community health worker bridges the gap between the clinic and the community and is an effective strategy for promoting obesity prevention in high-risk families.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the effects of a 50% discount on low-energy density (ED) fruits and vegetables (F&V), bottled water, and diet sodas on shoppers' purchasing, food intake, and body weight. DESIGN AND METHODS A randomized, controlled trial was conducted at two Manhattan supermarkets, in which a 4-week baseline period (no discounts) preceded an 8-week intervention period (50% discount), and a 4-week follow-up period (no discounts). Twenty-four hour dietary recall, as well as body weight and body composition measures were obtained every 4 weeks. Participants (n = 47, 33f; 14m) were overweight and obese (BMI ≥ 25) shoppers. RESULTS Purchasing of F&V during intervention was greater in the discount group than in the control group (P < 0.0001). Purchasing of these items by the discount group relative to the control group during follow-up was reduced from intervention (P = 0.002), but still remained higher than during baseline (P = 0.01), indicating a partially sustained effect. Intake of F&V increased from baseline to intervention in the discount group relative to the control group (P = 0.037) and was sustained during follow-up. Body weight change did not differ significantly between groups, although post hoc analysis indicated a change within the discount group (-1.1 kg, P = 0.006) but not within the control group. CONCLUSIONS Discounts of low-ED F&V led to increased purchasing and intake of those foods.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Posttransplant cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in renal transplant (RT) recipients and is more evident in recipients with transplants from expanded criteria donors (ECD). OBJECTIVES We analyzed the evolution of cardiovascular risk factors and their association with patient mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS We undertook a single-center, prospective study of RT patients (n = 360) between 1999 and 2006. These were 180 recipients with transplants from ECD and 180 controls. We analyzed the baseline characteristics and the cardiovascular risk factors: hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, CVD, and anemia. Posttransplant analyses included the evolution of cardiovascular risk factors and causes of death. RESULTS The mean age of the ECD was 63.5 ± 5.4 versus 32.0 ± 13.2 years in the non-ECD (P < .001) and the recipient ages were 58.4 ± 8.7 versus 40.8 ± 13.3 years, respectively (P < .001). The median interquartile range [IQR] dialysis time was 25 months (15-39) versus 20 months (12-44; P = .017). The pretransplant body mass index was 26.89 ± 3.91 versus 25.43 ± 4.72 kg/m(2) (P = .002); the median (IQR) number of antihypertensive drugs was two (1-2) versus two (1-2.75; P = .015); dyslipidemia was present in 32.5% versus 21.6% (P = .024), diabetes in 10.6% versus 5.6% (P = .087), and CVD in 13.3% versus 7.8% (P = .086). Treatment with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA) was received by 84.9% versus 83.9% (P = .857). Concerning transplantation, the mean follow-up was 64.3 ± 33.7 months. Hypertension was present at 3 and 5 years in 85.6% versus 69.5% (P = .001) and 87.9% versus 72.8% (P = .009), respiratory. Treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin-II receptor blockers at 3 and 5 years was 79.8% versus 64.5% and 85.6% versus 65%. Dyslipidemia was present at 5 years in 63.1% versus 58.0% (P = .482). De novo diabetes occurred in 16.7% versus 11.1% (P = .128), and CVD in 13.5% versus 4.5% (P = .003). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression proportional hazards models were constructed to analyze the factors associated with patient death. CONCLUSIONS CVD is the most common cause of death in recipients of ECD, RT, 40% in the ECD group versus 28.6% in the control group. Tight control of cardiovascular risk factors and a good pretransplant patient selection contributed to the good results obtained.

Abstract
Housing for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) has been linked to a number of positive physical and mental health outcomes, in addition to decreased sexual and drug-related risk behavior. The current study identified service priorities for PLWHA, services provided by HIV/AIDS housing agencies, and unmet service needs for PLWHA through a nationwide telephone survey of HIV/AIDS housing agencies in the USA. Housing, alcohol/drug treatment, and mental health services were identified as the three highest priorities for PLWHA and assistance finding employment, dental care, vocational assistance, and mental health services were the top needs not being met. Differences by geographical region were also examined. Findings indicate that while housing affords PLWHA access to services, there are still areas (e.g., mental health services) where gaps in linkages to care exist.

Abstract
A study of mortality in renal transplantation recipients showed that the combination of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and tacrolimus (TaC) reduced the mortality rate. We studied 1045 consecutive adult deceased donor kidney transplant recipients from 1986-2001, where follow-up to 2011 was a minimum of 10 years, to analyze the impact of these immunosuppressive drugs on patient survival. Cox multivariate analysis showed that treatment with MMF and the use of TaC instead of cyclosporine reduced the risk of death by 43%. In conclusion, both immunosuppressive drugs reduced the risk of death of patients receiving from renal transplants deceased donors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION BK polyomavirus (BKV) reactivation characterized by active viruria occurs in 23%-57% of renal allograft recipients and BKV-associated nephropathy in as many as 8% of renal allograft recipients. Only a few cases of nephritis have been attributed to JC polyomavirus (JCV) with limited information about JCV replication and its impact on graft function and survival of kidney transplant patients. We sought to determine the prevalence of BKV and JCV replication, the risk factors associated with viral reactivation, and their implications for the development of polyomavirus nephropathy (PVN) among renal transplant patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 186 kidney transplant recipients who were transplanted between 2005 and 2009 with a 1-year follow-up. If the urine polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was positive, we performed a PCR on blood. If this was positive or renal dysfunction was present, we performed a renal biopsy. RESULTS Viruria was positive in 72 cases (39%) and viremia in 12 (6.5%); including, 3 patients (1.6%) who developed PVN. In the patients with viruria, BKV was detected in 47% and JCV in 46%; both were detected in 7%, although the combination of viremia and nephropathy were caused by BKV in all cases. CONCLUSION In renal transplant patients, the incidence of BKV and JCV viruria was similar, although in our series the JCV serotype did not cause viremia or PVN. Our experience suggested that JCV did not have the ability to cause PVN.

Abstract
This study is a 6-month follow-up of a randomized pilot evaluation of standard one-session treatment (OST-S) versus culturally adapted OST (OST-CA) with phobic Asian Americans. OST-CA included seven cultural adaptations drawn from prior research with East Asians and Asian Americans. Results from 1-week and 6-month follow-up show that both OST-S and OST-CA were effective at reducing phobic symptoms compared with self-help control. Moreover, OST-CA was superior to OST-S for several outcomes. For catastrophic thinking and general fear, moderator analyses indicated that low-acculturation Asian Americans benefitted more from OST-CA than OST-S, whereas both treatments were equally effective for high-acculturation participants. Although cultural process factors (e.g., facilitating emotional control, exploiting the vertical therapist-client relationship) and working alliance were predictive of positive outcomes, they did not mediate treatment effects. This study offers a potential model for evaluating cultural adaptation effects, as well as the mechanisms that account for such effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In Spain, the number of ideal kidney transplant donors has fallen, with at the same time an increase in the number of older recipients on the waiting list. AIM To analyze the results of expanded criteria cadaveric donor kidney transplants into older recipients using grafts selected by kidney biopsy. PATIENTS AND METHODS We studied 360 kidney transplant recipients who had been followed to December 2009: 180 in the study group and 180 in a control group composed of younger patients who received grafts from non-expanded criteria donors between 1999 and 2006. A paraffin-embedded kidney biopsy was evaluated by the percentages of sclerosed glomeruli, arteriolar hyalinosis, intimal wall thickening, interstitial fibrosis, and tubular atrophy. RESULTS Significant differences were observed in donor age (63.50±5.46 vs 31.90±13.29 years; P<.001) and recipient age (58.40±8.80 vs 40.71±13.23 years; P<.001). Donor renal function was significantly worse among the expanded criteria group (90.80 vs 108.11 mL/min/1.73 m2; P=.006), remaining so over time in the recipient (at 1 year: 42.08 vs 63.71 [P<.001]; at 3 years: 41.25 vs 62.31 [P<.001], and at 7 years: 38.17 vs 64.18 [P<.001]). Censored 7-year graft survivals were 73% versus 87% (P<.001) with similar patient survivals (90.5% vs 95%; P=.39). CONCLUSIONS Selection of expanded criteria donors by kidney biopsy resulted in good renal function as well as graft and patient survivals at 7 years in older recipients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Treatment with sirolimus (SRL) is a potential therapeutic option for renal transplant recipients, especially those who have developed chronic graft nephropathy (CGN) or a neoplasm. Our aim was to analyze the efficacy and safety of conversion to SRL in renal transplant recipients. MATERIALS AND METHODS We undertook a retrospective study of 85 patients converted to SRL, 47% for tumors, 39% for CGN, and 14% for other causes. The follow-up period was 34 months (range, 1-93 months). RESULTS Baseline creatinine was 1.8 +/- 0.69 mg/dL (1.6 +/- 0.59 for tumors and 2.3 +/- 0.6 for CGN). At 1 year, the creatinine was the same in both groups: 1.8 mg/dL (P = NS). Graft survival at 12 months was 89% (81% for tumors, 81% for CGN, and 100% for other causes). SRL was withdrawn in 34% of patients: 18% for severe side effects, 7% for patient death, and 9% for graft loss. The serum creatinine and proteinuria were significantly increased among those subjects who returned to dialysis because of CGN compared with those with conserved renal function. Patients who developed pneumonitis showed a lower baseline aMDRD, but no difference in SRL levels. Side effects occurred in 40% of patients, with no difference in renal function, proteinuria, or SRL levels. Renal function showed a significant improvement in the patients who continued SRL (aMDRD 45.7 vs 50.7 mL/min/1.73 m(2) at 12 months; P = .08), more marked among those who converted due to CGN. Increases were seen in levels of serum lipids, as well as in the percentage of patients treated with statins. Proteinuria increased significantly, as did the percentage of patients treated with ACE inhibitors/ARA2. CONCLUSIONS Conversion to SRL in patients with CGN was safe when renal function had not undergone marked worsening and there was no proteinuria. Patients who were converted experienced an improvement in renal function.

Abstract
In the most common case of optical pyrometry, the major obstacle in determining the true temperature is the knowledge of the thermo-optical properties for in situ conditions. We present experimental results obtained with a method able to determine the true temperature of metallic surfaces above 500 degrees C when there is not parasitic effect by surrounding radiation. The method is called bicolor pyroreflectometry and it is based on Planck's law, Kirchhoff's law, and the assumption of identical reflectivity indicatrixes for the target surface at two different close wavelengths (here, 1.3 and 1.55 microm). The diffusion factor eta(d), the key parameter of the method, is introduced to determine the convergence temperature T(*), which is expected to be equal to the true temperature T. Our goal is to asses this method for different metallic surfaces. The validation of this method is made by comparison with thermocouples. Measurements were made for tungsten, copper, and aluminum samples of different roughnesses, determined by a rugosimeter. After introducing a theoretical model for two-color pyroreflectometry, we give a description of the experimental setup and present experimental applications of the subject method. The quality of the results demonstrates the usefulness of two-color pyroreflectometry to determine the temperatures of hot metals when the emissivity is not known and for the commercially important case of specular surfaces.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although oxidative phosphorylation defects can affect the liver, these conditions are poorly understood, partially because of the lack of animal models. AIMS To create and characterise the pathophysiology of mitochondrial hepatopathies in a mouse model. METHODS A mouse model of mitochondrial hepatopathies was created by the conditional liver knockout (KO) of the COX10 gene, which is required for cytochrome c oxidase (COX) function. The onset and progression of biochemical, molecular and clinical phenotypes were analysed in several groups of animals, mostly at postnatal days 23, 56, 78 and 155. RESULTS Biochemical and histochemical analysis of liver samples from 23-56-day-old KO mice showed liver dysfunction, a severe COX deficiency, marked mitochondrial proliferation and lipid accumulation. Despite these defects, the COX-deficient hepatocytes were not immediately eliminated, and apoptosis followed by liver regeneration could be observed only at age 78 days. Hepatocytes from 56-78-day-old KO mice survived despite very low COX activity but showed a progressive depletion of glycogen stores. In most animals, hepatocytes that escaped COX10 ablation were able to proliferate and completely regenerate the liver between days 78 and 155. CONCLUSIONS The results showed that when faced with a severe oxidative phosphorylation defect, hepatocytes in vivo can rely on glycolysis/glycogenolysis for their bioenergetic needs for relatively long periods. Ultimately, defective hepatocytes undergo apoptosis and are replaced by COX-positive cells first observed in the perivascular regions.

Abstract
The ability to manipulate mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) heteroplasmy would provide a powerful tool to treat mitochondrial diseases. Recent studies showed that mitochondria-targeted restriction endonucleases can modify mtDNA heteroplasmy in a predictable and efficient manner if it recognizes a single site in the mutant mtDNA. However, the applicability of such model is limited to mutations that create a novel cleavage site, not present in the wild-type mtDNA. We attempted to extend this approach to a 'differential multiple cleavage site' model, where an mtDNA mutation creates an extra restriction site to the ones normally present in the wild-type mtDNA. Taking advantage of a heteroplasmic mouse model harboring two haplotypes of mtDNA (NZB/BALB) and using adenovirus as a gene vector, we delivered a mitochondria-targeted Scal restriction endonuclease to different mouse tissues. Scal recognizes five sites in the NZB mtDNA but only three in BALB mtDNA. Our results showed that changes in mtDNA heteroplasmy were obtained by the expression of mitochondria-targeted ScaI in both liver, after intravenous injection, and in skeletal muscle, after intramuscular injection. Although mtDNA depletion was an undesirable side effect, our data suggest that under a regulated expression system, mtDNA depletion could be minimized and restriction endonucleases recognizing multiple sites could have a potential for therapeutic use.

Abstract
PURPOSE To present the first genetically supported case of X linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) or 'lubag' reported in an Australian hospital. METHODS We performed PCR amplification of microsatellite markers in and around the previously described segregating region for the XDP haplotype. RESULTS Linkage was confirmed using markers ZNF261, DXS10017, and DXS10018. CONCLUSION We present the first case of XDP or 'lubag' reported in an Australian hospital. It highlights the enlarging role of genetic testing in facilitating the diagnosis of dystonia in a clinical environment where a disease like XDP is rare, and where a corroborating family history may be unavailable.
