- Abstract
The USDA Long-Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) network aims to enhance sustainable agricultural management practices through a coordinated, cross-site common experiment involving 18 locations across the United States. The objective of this paper is to provide an overview of the LTAR grazing lands common experiment at the Northern Plains (NP) site, where an experiment was initiated in 2019 to answer producers' and researchers' questions about whether the tactical application of fire or grazing can reduce the dominance of invasive Kentucky bluegrass in northern Great Plains ecosystems. As part of the LTAR common experiment, we contrast a prevailing practice (season-long grazing at moderate stocking rate) with four alternative practices at a half-hectare plot scale: (1) mob grazing by cattle, (2) multi-species grazing (mob grazing by cattle, with goats foraging at key times of the year), (3) prescribed fire, and (4) prescribed fire followed by cattle grazing. A stakeholder group is engaged in the co-production process to determine alternative practices and how to apply them. Every 5 years, the treatment with the best overall outcomes is applied at a field scale (15 ha), resulting in a core treatment contrast of prevailing versus alternative grazing management systems. This experiment aims to develop alternative agroecological practices that optimize current and future economic and ecosystem benefits., (© 2024 The Author(s).

- Abstract
Background: The role of ACTA2 mutations in Familial Aortic Disease has been increasingly recognized. We describe a highly penetrant variant (R118Q) in a family with aortic disease., Case Report: A patient presented to us for elective repair of an ascending aortic aneurysm with a family history of his mother expiring after aortic dissection. Genetic testing revealed he was a heterozygous carrier of the ACTA2 missense mutation R118Q. Subsequently, all living family members were tested for this variant and a full medical history was obtained to compile a family tree for the variant and penetrance of an aortic event (defined as lifetime occurrence of aortic surgery / dissection). In total 9 family members were identified and underwent genetic testing with 7/9 showing presence of the ACTA2 R118Q mutation or an aortic event. All patients over the age of 50 (n = 4) had an aortic event. Those events occurred at ages 54, 55, 60, and 62 (mean event at 57.8 ± 3.9 years). Three family members with the variant under the age of 40 have not had an aortic event and most are undergoing regular aortic surveillance via CT scan., Conclusions: Existing studies of known ACTA2 mutations describe a 76% aortic event rate by 85 years old. The R118Q missense mutation is a less common ACTA2 variant, estimated to be found in about 5% of patients with known mutations. Prior studies have predicted the R118Q mutation to have a slightly decreased risk of aortic events compared to other ACTA2 mutations. In this family, however, we demonstrate 100% penetrance of aortic disease above age 50. In today's era of excellent outcomes in elective aortic surgery, our team aggressively offers elective repair. We advocate for strict aortic surveillance for patients with this variant and would consider elective aortic replacement at 4.5 cm, or at an even smaller diameter in patients with a strong family history of dissection who are identified with this mutation., (© 2023.

- Abstract
Aims: Over the last ten years, virtual Fractional Flow Reserve (vFFR) has improved the utility of Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR), a globally recommended assessment to guide coronary interventions. Although the speed of vFFR computation has accelerated, techniques utilising full 3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solutions rather than simplified analytical solutions still require significant time to compute., Methods and Results: This study investigated the speed, accuracy and cost of a novel 3D-CFD software method based upon a graphic processing unit (GPU) computation, compared with the existing fastest central processing unit (CPU)-based 3D-CFD technique, on 40 angiographic cases. The novel GPU simulation was significantly faster than the CPU method (median 31.7 s (Interquartile Range (IQR) 24.0-44.4s) vs. 607.5 s (490-964 s), P < 0.0001). The novel GPU technique was 99.6% (IQR 99.3-99.9) accurate relative to the CPU method. The initial cost of the GPU hardware was greater than the CPU (£4080 vs. £2876), but the median energy consumption per case was significantly less using the GPU method (8.44 (6.80-13.39) Wh vs. 2.60 (2.16-3.12) Wh, P < 0.0001)., Conclusion: This study demonstrates that vFFR can be computed using 3D-CFD with up to 28-fold acceleration than previous techniques with no clinically significant sacrifice in accuracy., Competing Interests: Conflict of interest: R.B., J.H., and D.C. are employees of Ansys Inc.

- Abstract
Introduction: For people with severe bleeding disorders (PwBD) who are prescribed home treatment, treatment logs are an important part of the management of their care. Treatment logs provide a clinical picture of the home treatment regimen and can serve as a communication tool between the medical team and the person with a bleeding disorder. Most importantly, treatment logs allow for the adjustment of the treatment dose and frequency to prevent bleeding episodes. Yet, a large number of PwBD do not complete treatment logs., Aims: We aimed to develop and implement interventions to increase adherence rates of treatment log completion in PwBD on a home treatment regimen by at least 20% over 2 years., Methods: We conducted a quality improvement initiative from 2019-2022 involving developing and implementing interventions that were guided by the application of the Information-Motivation-Behavioural Skills Model. Examples of interventions included: the development of educational materials on the different methods of log completion and interactive discussions that involved a patient-driven decision of selecting a treatment log method. Data on the implementation of the theoretically-based interventions as well as outcome data on the success of treatment log completion was reviewed monthly., Results: Following the application of the Information-Motivation-Behavioural Skills Model on the designed and implemented interventions, there was a 20% increase in individuals' adherence with treatment logs completion (N = 68)., Conclusion: Treatment logs are an important piece of a PwBDs' prescribed home treatment regimen. Quality improvement interventions promoted increased treatment log adherence for PwBDs'prescribed prophylactic home treatment., (© 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

- Abstract
Background: The Recipient Epidemiology and Donor Evaluation Study-IV-Pediatric (REDS-IV-P) is a new iteration of prior National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) REDS programs that focus on improving transfusion recipient outcomes across the lifespan as well as the safety and availability of the blood supply., Study Design and Methods: The US program includes blood centers and hospitals (22 including 6 free-standing Children's hospitals) in four geographic regions. The Brazilian program has 5 participating hemocenters. A Center for Transfusion Laboratory Studies (CTLS) and a Data Coordinating Center (DCC) support synergistic studies and activities over the 7-year REDS-IV-P program., Results: The US is building a centralized, vein-to-vein (V2V) database, linking information collected from blood donors, their donations, the resulting manufactured components, and data extracts from hospital electronic medical records of transfused and non-transfused patients. Simultaneously, the Brazilian program is building a donor, donation, and component database. The databases will serve as the backbone for retrospective and prospective observational studies in transfusion epidemiology, transfusion recipient outcomes, blood component quality, and emerging blood safety issues. Special focus will be on preterm infants, patients with sickle cell disease, thalassemia or cancer, and the effect of donor biologic variability and component manufacturing on recipient outcomes. A rapid response capability to emerging safety threats has resulted in timely studies related to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2)., Conclusions: The REDS-IV-P program endeavors to improve donor-recipient-linked research with a focus on children and special populations while also maintaining the flexibility to address emerging blood safety issues., (© 2022 AABB.)

- Abstract
Manipulation of the gut microbiota via fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has shown clinical promise in diseases such as recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI). However, the variable nature of this approach makes it challenging to describe the relationship between fecal strain colonization, corresponding microbiota changes, and clinical efficacy. Live biotherapeutic products (LBPs) consisting of defined consortia of clonal bacterial isolates have been proposed as an alternative therapeutic class because of their promising preclinical results and safety profile. We describe VE303, an LBP comprising 8 commensal Clostridia strains under development for rCDI, and its early clinical development in healthy volunteers (HVs). In a phase 1a/b study in HVs, VE303 is determined to be safe and well-tolerated at all doses tested. VE303 strains optimally colonize HVs if dosed over multiple days after vancomycin pretreatment. VE303 promotes the establishment of a microbiota community known to provide colonization resistance., Competing Interests: Declaration of interests R.M., S.R., E.C., S.C., J.H., C.F., L.C., A.R.W., J.L.S., B.O., and J.M.N. are employees of Vedanta Biosciences and have an equity interest in the company.

- Abstract
Purpose. To evaluate the impact of a nudge program on food pantry clients' self-reported selection and use of healthy foods. Method. A convenience sample of clients of six urban food pantries in Utah were surveyed about their experience with the Thumbs Up for Healthy Choices nudge program. Chi-square tests were used to identify associations between demographic characteristics and self-reported program impact. Results. Ninety-four percent (n = 158) of respondents agreed that the program made it easier to make healthy choices. Sixty-five percent reported healthier diets since its implementation. Additionally, Hispanic respondents were more likely to report positive impacts than non-Hispanic respondents. Conclusions and Implications. Nudge programs are effective in increasing the selection of healthy foods among pantry clients in Utah. Impacts seemed to be particularly positive for Hispanic pantry users in Utah. Nutrition programs should consider implementing these low-cost strategies to improve dietary quality of pantry users.

- Abstract
Anti-Jk3 is a rare alloantibody to a high-prevalence antigen primarily seen in individuals of Polynesian descent and is associated with a handful of well-established variants of the SLC14A1 gene. We report a case of the Jk
null phenotype, associated with formation of anti-Jk3, in a patient of non-Polynesian descent. This patient, a 51-year-old woman self-described as of Jamaican and Scottish ancestry, presented to our hospital for oncologic care. The patient's blood sample typed as blood group A, D+. All screening and panel reagent red blood cells showed reactivity, ranging from 2 to 4+; autocontrol and direct antiglobulin test were both negative. Antigen phenotyping revealed Jk(a-b-), leading to suspicion for anti-Jk3, which was subsequently confirmed by our immunohematology reference laboratory. Given her reported familial background, testing of the SLC14A1 gene was performed, revealing that the patient was heterozygous for the single nucleotide variant (SNV) at c.838G>A in exon 8 and therefore carries both JK*01 and JK*02 alleles that encode Jka and Jkb , respectively. However, the patient was found to be heterozygous for several additional SNVs: c.28G>A in exon 3; c.191G>A, c.226G>A, and c.303G>A in exon 4; and c.757T>C in exon 7. The patient's Jk(b-) phenotype can be explained by coinheritance of c.838A with c.191G>A, which defines null allele JK*02N.09. Coinheritance of SNVs c.28G>A and c.838G with rare SNV c.757C that is predicted to cause a non-conservative amino acid change (p.S253P) likely accounts for the complete serologic absence of Jka and the ability to form anti-Jk3 in this case. This finding would represent a new JK*01 null allele. This evaluation illustrates the importance of genetic analysis in identifying the factors preventing a high-prevalence antigen from being expressed, particularly when discovered outside of an expected racial or ethnic group., Anti-Jk3 is a rare alloantibody to a high-prevalence antigen primarily seen in individuals of Polynesian descent and is associated with a handful of well-established variants of the SLC14A1 gene.

Antigen phenotyping revealed Jk(a–b–), leading to suspicion for anti-Jk3, which was subsequently confirmed by our immunohematology reference laboratory. Given her reported familial background, testing of the SLC14A1 gene was performed, revealing that the patient was heterozygous for the single nucleotide variant (SNV) at c.838G>A in exon 8 and therefore carries both JK*01 and JK*02 alleles that encode Jka and Jkb , respectively. However, the patient was found to be heterozygous for several additional SNVs: c.28G>A in exon 3; c.191G>A, c.226G>A, and c.303G>A in exon 4; and c.757T>C in exon 7. The patient’s Jk(b–) phenotype can be explained by coinheritance of c.838A with c.191G>A, which defines null allele JK*02N.09. Coinheritance of SNVs c.28G>A and c.838G with rare SNV c.757C that is predicted to cause a non-conservative amino acid change (p.S253P) likely accounts for the complete serologic absence of Jka and the ability to form anti-Jk3 in this case. This finding would represent a new JK*01 null allele. This evaluation illustrates the importance of genetic analysis in identifying the factors preventing a high-prevalence antigen from being expressed, particularly when discovered outside of an expected racial or ethnic group.- Published
