Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study was designed to evaluate the effect of warfarin on perioperative transfusion, bleeding and coagulation status in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). BACKGROUND There were controversy about the effect of warfarin on perioperative transfusion and bleeding. METHODS/MATERIALS Medical records from 107 consecutive patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) on warfarin therapy undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) from 2008 to 2013 at a single university teaching hospital were retrospectively reviewed to compare the patients on to those not on warfarin therapy in terms of perioperative transfusion requirement, postoperative 24-h bleeding amount, and coagulation status assessment using prothrombin time (PT), international normalised ratio (INR) and rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM®). RESULTS Although PT/INR was significantly prolonged both before and after surgery in patients on warfarin therapy, ROTEM® data, perioperative transfusion requirement and postoperative 24-h bleeding amount (785 ± 331 vs 676 ± 303 mL, P = 0·089, respectively) were not significantly different between the patients on and those not on warfarin therapy. CONCLUSION In patients on warfarin therapy undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB, warfarin therapy did not significantly increase perioperative transfusion requirement and bleeding.

Abstract
In the United States, prenatal genetic testing (PGT) for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is currently available via clinical genetic services. Such testing may inform parents about their unborn child's risk for ASD, prepare parents for the birth of an affected infant, and allow them to arrange for early interventions. Although PGT for autism has potential benefits, the associated ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) should be considered. This first qualitative study employed a hypothetical scenario to explore the attitudes toward PGT and termination decisions of 42 parents of children with ASD. Over half of the participants expressed willingness to undergo PGT for autism. Reasons included better preparation for birth, early and better treatment, termination of affected pregnancy, contribution to research, and curiosity. Of the 31 parents who were either willing or unsure about undergoing the PGT, approximately three-fourths would continue their hypothetical affected pregnancies. Explanations included preparation for birth of the child, bonding or acceptance of existing ASD-affected children, apprehensions about test limitations, and religious concerns. Parents who reported they would terminate the affected pregnancy in this hypothetical situation were primarily Asians. This study contributes to the growing understanding of the ELSI aspects of PGT in clinical practice.

Abstract
In Taiwan, autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are an emerging public health concern. The ongoing scientific progress for understanding the genetic etiology of ASD makes it increasingly important to examine how parents of children with ASD perceive the causes and recurrence risk of having another child with ASD. These perceptions may influence their family planning, attitudes toward genetic services, and willingness to take their children for ASD genetic testing. However, previous studies addressing this issue were conducted primarily in Western countries. As culture might shape an individual's views of genetic/genomic disorders, this first-of-its-kind study examined the perceptions of the genetic etiology for ASD and the recurrence risk among Taiwanese parents of children affected with ASD. In-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted among 39 parents having at least one child with ASD. Although the majority of participants believed that ASD has a genetic link, less than half perceived genetic factors as the cause of their own child's ASD. Moreover, most participants articulated their recurrence risk incorrectly. Some parents were concerned about their doctors' limited genomic competencies. To provide parents with better education, counseling, and support for making reproductive decisions, ASD-related genomic education among Taiwanese physicians is needed.

Abstract
World conditions place large populations at risk from ionizing radiation (IR) from detonation of dirty bombs or nuclear devices. In a subgroup of patients, ionizing radiation exposure would be followed by a secondary infection. The effects of radiation combined injury are potentially more lethal than either insult in isolation. The purpose of this study was to determine mechanisms of mortality and possible therapeutic targets in radiation combined injury. Mice were exposed to IR with 2.5 Gray (Gy) followed four days later by intratracheal methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). While either IR or MRSA alone yielded 100% survival, animals with radiation combined injury had 53% survival (p = 0.01). Compared to IR or MRSA alone, mice with radiation combined injury had increased gut apoptosis, local and systemic bacterial burden, decreased splenic CD4 T cells, CD8 T cells, B cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells, and increased BAL and systemic IL-6 and G-CSF. In contrast, radiation combined injury did not alter lymphocyte apoptosis, pulmonary injury, or intestinal proliferation compared to IR or MRSA alone. In light of the synergistic increase in gut apoptosis following radiation combined injury, transgenic mice that overexpress Bcl-2 in their intestine and wild type mice were subjected to IR followed by MRSA. Bcl-2 mice had decreased gut apoptosis and improved survival compared to WT mice (92% vs. 42%; p<0.01). These data demonstrate that radiation combined injury results in significantly higher mortality than could be predicted based upon either IR or MRSA infection alone, and that preventing gut apoptosis may be a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
AIMS This paper describes the development and pilot-testing of The Family Health History Training Program for Health Educators (FHHTP). Although in recent years professional organizations have urged the health promotion workforce to adopt genomics-related competencies, training opportunities designed specifically for health educators (HEs) remain scarce. Designed by a team of HEs, the FHHTP aims at preparing HEs in the state of Texas, USA, to use a family health history as a genomic health promotion tool. METHODS In this report, we describe (a) the program's empirical and theoretical grounding, (b) its components, and (c) pilot-testing of the 2 main components (Web-based and workshop trainings). The FHHTP addresses the training needs expressed by HEs and anchors itself in a theoretical model previously tested with 1,607 US-based HEs. The model draws from Social Cognitive Theory, the Theory of Planned Behavior, and Diffusion of Innovations theory. The program comprises 6 elements; the Web-based training and the training workshops are the focus of this paper. RESULTS Pilot data indicate participants' knowledge and intention improved significantly (p < 0.05) at post-test and remained significantly higher at the 3-month follow-up. Attitudes, self-efficacy, behavior, knowledge/awareness, and intention also exhibited improvement in scores over time. CONCLUSION We conclude, therefore, that the FHHTP can contribute significantly to the adoption of genomic competencies by Texas HEs. This report describes how the first-of-its-kind genomics training for HEs in the USA - FHHTP - was developed and pilot-tested with HEs in Texas.

Abstract
The encapsulation and packaging reliability in fully integrated, fully wireless 100 channel Utah Slant Electrode Array (USEA)/integrated neural interface-recording version 5 (INI-R5) has been evaluated by monitoring the extended long term in-vitro functional stability and recording longevity. The INI encapsulated with 6-μm Parylene-C was immersed in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) at room temperature for a period of over 12 months. The USEA/INI-R5, while being soaked was powered and configured wirelessly through 2.765 MHz inductive link and the transmitted frequency shift keying (FSK) modulated radio-frequency (RF) (900 MHz Industrial, scientific, medical-ISM band) signal was also recorded wirelessly as a function of soak time. In order to test the long term recording ability, in-vitro wireless recording was performed in agarose for few channels. The full functionality and the ability of the electrodes to record artificial neural signals even after 12 months of PBS soak provides a measure of encapsulation reliability, the functional and recording stability in fully integrated wireless neural interface and potential usefulness for future chronic implants.
