Abstract
Rapid on-farm assessment of manure nutrient content can be achieved with the use of quick tests. These tests can be used to indirectly measure the nutrient content in animal slurries immediately before manure is applied on agricultural fields. The objective of this study was to assess the reliability of hydrometers, electrical conductivity meter and pens, and Agros N meter against standard laboratory methods. Manure samples were collected from 34 dairy farms in the Mammoth Cave area in central Kentucky. Regression equations were developed for combined and individual counties located In the area (Barren, Hart and Monroe). Our results indicated that accuracy in nutrient estimation could be improved if separate linear regressions were developed for farms with similar facilities in a county. Direct hydrometer estimates of total nitrogen were among the most accurate when separate regression equations were developed for each county (R2 = 0.61, 0.93, and 0.74 for Barren, Hart and Monroe county, respectively). Reasonably accurate estimates (R2 > 0.70) were also obtained for total nitrogen and total phosphorus using hydrometers, either by relating specific gravity to nutrient content or to total solids content. Estimation of ammoniacal nitrogen with Agros N meter and electrical conductivity meter/pens correlated well with standard laboratory determinations, especially while using the individual data sets from Hart County (R2 = 0.70 to 0.87). This study indicates that the use of quick test calibration equations developed for a small area or region where farms are similar in terms of manure handling and management, housing, and feed ration are more appropriate than using "universal" equations usually developed with combined data sets. Accuracy is expected to improve if individual farms develop their own calibration curves. Nevertheless, we suggest confidence intervals always be specified for nutrients estimated through quick testing for any specific region, county, or farm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in cervical cancer, and investigate their correlation with the apoptotic index (AI), telomerase activity, human papilloma virus (HPV) infection and clinicopathological characteristics. METHODS Fifty cervical cancer samples and 20 normal cervical tissues were assessed for the protein expression of survivin, Bcl-2, Cox-2, p53 and p73 by immunohistochemistry. HPV DNA was detected by PCR, telomerase activity by PCR-ELISA, and AI by TUNEL assay. RESULTS 46/50 cervical tumors (92%) showed an increased telomerase activity as compared to 3/20 (15%) controls. 45/50 (90%) cervical tumors were positive for HPV, of which 30 were HPV-16 positive and 5 were HPV-18 positive. 24/50 (48%) tumors were positive for survivin, 14 (28%) for Bcl-2, 13 (26%) for Cox-2, 19/45 (42%) for p73, 10/45 (24%) for p53. Telomerase activity was highest in tumors with the poorest grade. A positive correlation was seen between survivin and Bcl-2, survivin and tumor stage, Bcl-2 and Cox-2, p73 and p53 and p73 and the AI. Despite the overexpression of various antiapoptotic proteins, no significant difference was observed in the AI between tumors and controls. CONCLUSIONS Since deregulation of the apoptotic pathway appears to occur in cervical cancer, some apoptosis-related proteins could be assessed as potential markers for progression/prognosis in cervical cancer. Additionally, newer proteins such as p73 may play a compensatory role for the nonfunctional proteins such as p53.

Abstract
A cry1Ab-type gene was cloned from a new isolate of Bacillus thuringiensis by PCR. When restriction pattern was compared with that of known genes it was found to have additional restriction site for ClaI. Nucleotide sequencing and homology search revealed that the toxin shared 95% homology with the known Cry1Ab proteins as compared to more than 98% homology among the other reported Cry1Ab toxins. The gene encoded a sequence of 1,177 amino acids compared to 1,155 amino acids encoded by all the other 16 cry1Ab genes reported so far. An additional stretch of 22 amino acids after the amino acid G793 in the new toxin sequence showed 100% homology with several other cry genes within cry1 family. Homology search indicated that the new cry1Ab-type gene might have resulted by nucleotide rearrangement between cry1Ab and cry1Aa/cry1Ac genes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the cost effectiveness of combination treatment with etanercept plus methotrexate in comparison with monotherapies in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using a new model that incorporates both functional status and disease activity. METHODS Effectiveness data were based on a 2 year trial in 682 patients with active RA (TEMPO). Data on resource consumption and utility related to function and disease activity were obtained from a survey of 616 patients in Sweden. A Markov model was constructed with five states according to functional status (Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ)) subdivided into high and low disease activity. The cost for each quality adjusted life year (QALY) gained was estimated by Monte Carlo simulation. RESULTS Disease activity had a highly significant effect on utilities, independently of HAQ. For resource consumption, only HAQ was a significant predictor, with the exception of sick leave. Compared with methotrexate alone, etanercept plus methotrexate over 2 years increased total costs by 14,221 euros and led to a QALY gain of 0.38. When treatment was continued for 10 years, incremental costs were 42,148 euros for a QALY gain of 0.91. The cost per QALY gained was 37,331 euros and 46,494 euros, respectively. The probability that the cost effectiveness ratio is below a threshold of 50,000 euros/QALY is 88%. CONCLUSION Incorporating the influence of disease activity into this new model allows better assessment of the effects of anti-tumour necrosis factor treatment on patients' general wellbeing. In this analysis, the cost per QALY gained with combination treatment with etanercept plus methotrexate compared with methotrexate alone falls within the acceptable range.

Abstract
A theoretical and experimental study of the imaging of latent fingerprints by a phase-resolved fluorescence technique along with associated signal-processing analysis is described. The system configuration is optimized by incorporation of a novel approach of homodyne-assisted even-step phase shifting in a signal-processing concept. The excitation laser source and gain of the detection device, which are modulated at megahertz frequency followed by sensitive signal-processing concepts, are employed to separate the fingerprint fluorescence from background fluorescence. Experiments are carried out with fingerprints deposited upon different types of substrate surfaces. Later, a quantitative image-quality assessment is carried out, which confirms the improvement in the quality of the phase-resolved fingerprint image. Imaging of older fingerprints with better contrast is also carried out with the proposed novel technique.

Abstract
The present investigation is a case study of Lucknow, the main metropolis in Northern India, which succumbs to a major problem of municipal solid waste and its management. A qualitative investigation using strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats analysis (SWOT) has been successfully implemented through this community participation study. This qualitative investigation emphasizes the limited capabilities of the municipal corporation's resources to provide proper facilitation of the municipal solid waste management (MSWM) services without community participation in Lucknow city. The SWOT analysis was performed to formulate strategic action plans for MSWM in order to mobilize and utilize the community resources on the one hand and municipal corporation's resources on the other. It has allowed the introduction of a participatory approach for better collaboration between the community and municipal corporation in Lucknow (India). With this stakeholder-based SWOT analysis, efforts were made to explore the ways and means of converting the possible "threats" into "opportunities" and changing the "weaknesses" into "strengths" regarding a community-based MSWM programme. By this investigation, concrete strategic action plans were developed for both the community and municipal corporation to improve MSWM in Lucknow.

Abstract
Barometric pressure and sea level data sets from the South Pacific Sea Level and Climate Monitoring Project funded by AusAID were analysed for twelve Tropical Pacific island countries. During mid-1997 and 1998 pressure anomalies over the Pacific region were strongly positive and sea level dropped significantly. As a consequence, sea level trends in the Pacific region suddenly changed from positive to negative. It was believed that the delayed effect of the 1997 strong El Ni�o episode was directly linked to these positive pressure anomalies. The same observations were made in 2002 and 2003 during another El Ni�o episode which was however not as strong as the previous one. The La Ni�a episode which
followed the 1997-98 El Ni�o in 1999 had opposite effects. The pressure anomalies were negative and the sea level anomalies were positive. While the thermal effect due to global warming is still the cause of sea level rise in the Pacific region, it is clearly evident that the barometric pressure effect on sea level is more abrupt and it can overshadow the other effects at least temporarily.

Abstract
Autocrine and paracrine factors regulate survival, proliferation, migration and invasion of placental cytotrophoblasts cells. While trophoblast migration appears to be tightly controlled, the nature of the chemoattractive factors that facilitate and direct trophoblast invasion remains undefined. Our group recently discovered a chemottractive factor (NRP) that exerts its biological activities on the CNS. Studies of NRP actions reveal extensive influences on postnatal neuronal migration, differentiation and survival. Based on the neuronal activities of NRPs and parallels between neuronal and placental cell behavior patterns, we speculated that NRPs could be involved in placental development.
Migration assays were performed over 22 h using Boyden chambers pre-coated with NRP and laminin (n = 6 chambers per condition), to test the effect of NRPs on trophoblast migration. CTBs were isolated from term placentas by trypsin digestion and Percoll purification, and experiments were conducted within 6 h. Trophoblasts were seeded into the inner chamber (50000 cells/well) in M199 media supplemented with 10% FBS and antibiotics. Total number of cells migrating was counted. Migration was increased by 95 ± 14 % (mean ± SEM) in the presence of 100 fM NRP (P = 0.0016, t-test) compared to controls (bovine serum albumin). Survival assays were also performed using both primary trophoblasts and Jar choriocarcinoma cells. Apoptosis over 48 h, induced by treatment with TNF-α (5 ng/mL) and IFN-γ (100 U/mL), was completely abrogated by 10 pM NRP in Jar cells and 1pM in primary trophoblasts, as judged by MTT assay (mitochondrial activity).
Inadequate placentation is implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of serious pregnancy disorders such as preeclampsia. Our findings suggest important roles for NRPs in regulating trophoblast migration and survival. The possibility that defective NRP actions may be involved in various placental pathologies, or that NRPs could be used pharmacologically to augment placentation, remain to be explored.

Abstract
Because of the shortage of donors, kidneys previously judged to be unsuitable are now accepted for transplantation. Successful engraftment of kidneys with multiple renal arteries is one of the challenges and requires meticulous vascular surgical technique. In one of our case of renal allograft with three renal arteries, we created a single lumen by suturing three arteries together, like a three-legged pair of pants. The end of the single lumen was anastomesed to the side of external iliac artery. There was brisk diuresis on table after transplantation. Postoperatively, the patient had an uneventful course and normal graft function.

Abstract
Central administration of general and selective opioid receptor subtype antagonists in the rat has revealed a substantial role for mu, a moderate role for kappa, and a minimal role for delta receptors in the mediation of deprivation-induced feeding. Antisense probes directed against the kappa opioid receptor (KOP), nociceptin opioid receptor (NOP), and delta opioid receptor (DOP) genes in rats result in reductions similar to kappa and delta antagonists, whereas antisense probes directed against the mu opioid receptor (MOP) gene produced modest reductions relative to mu antagonists, suggesting that isoforms of the MOP gene may mediate deprivation-induced feeding. Since these isoforms were initially identified in mice, the present study compared the effects of general and selective opioid receptor antagonists on deprivation-induced feeding in rats and mice and antisense probes directed against exons of the MOP, DOP, KOP, and NOP genes on deprivation-induced feeding in the mouse. Food-deprived (12 and 24 h) rats and mice displayed similar profiles of reductions in deprivation-induced feeding following general, mu, and kappa opioid antagonists. In contrast, mice, but not rats, displayed reductions in deprivation-induced intake following delta antagonism as well as DOP antisense probes, suggesting a species-specific role for the delta receptor. Antisense probes directed against the KOP and NOP genes also reduced deprivation-induced intake in mice in a manner similar to kappa antagonism. However, the significant reductions in deprivation-induced feeding following antisense probes directed against either exons 2, 4, 7, 8, or 13 of the MOP gene were modest compared with mu antagonism, suggesting a role for multiple mu-mediated mechanisms.

Abstract
Diallyl sulphide (DAS) is a sulphur-containing volatile compound present in garlic (Allium sativum). It has been shown to inhibit a number of chemically induced forms of cancer in experimental animals. The present study demonstrates the inhibitory effect of DAS on the development of diethylnitrosamine (DEN) initiated and 2-acetyl-aminofluorene (2-AAF) promoted preneoplastic altered hepatic foci (AHF) in Wistar rats. AHF were scored and analysed by quantitative stereology using the Image Analysis system from frozen liver sections stained for biological markers, namely glutathione S-transferase, placental form (GST-P), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), glucose-6-phosphatase (G6 Pase) and alkaline phosphatase (AlkPase). DAS-supplemented rats were found to restore the near-normal levels of enzymes GST-P and GGT when exposed to DEN and 2-AAF. DAS administration following DEN and 2-AAF exposure led to the restoration of enzymic activity of ATPase, G6 Pase and AlkPase, as evident by number and area of the foci. These findings suggest the protective role of DAS in rat hepatocarcinogenesis, by suppressing DEN- and 2-AAF-induced AHF development.
