- Abstract
High blood cholesterol is typically considered a feature of wealthy western countries1,2. However, dietary and behavioural determinants of blood cholesterol are changing rapidly throughout the world³ and countries are using lipid-lowering medications at varying rates. These changes can have distinct effects on the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol, which have different effects on human health4,5. However, the trends of HDL and non-HDL cholesterol levels over time have not been previously reported in a global analysis. Here we pooled 1,127 population-based studies that measured blood lipids in 102.6 million individuals aged 18 years and older to estimate trends from 1980 to 2018 in mean total, non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels for 200 countries. Globally, there was little change in total or non-HDL cholesterol from 1980 to 2018. This was a net effect of increases in low- and middle-income countries, especially in east and southeast Asia, and decreases in high-income western countries, especially those in northwestern Europe, and in central and eastern Europe. As a result, countries with the highest level of non-HDL cholesterol—which is a marker of cardiovascular risk—changed from those in western Europe such as Belgium, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Malta in 1980 to those in Asia and the Pacific, such as Tokelau, Malaysia, The Philippines and Thailand. In 2017, high non-HDL cholesterol was responsible for an estimated 3.9 million (95% credible interval 3.7 million–4.2 million) worldwide deaths, half of which occurred in east, southeast and south Asia. The global repositioning of lipid-related risk, with non-optimal cholesterol shifting from a distinct feature of high-income countries in northwestern Europe, north America and Australasia to one that affects countries in east and southeast Asia and Oceania should motivate the use of population-based policies and personal interventions t

We propose a seeding particle-based color-to-depth calibration methodology for three-dimensional color particle tracking velocimetry (3D color PTV) using a single camera and volumetric rainbow gradient illumination. The use of sheet-color illumination from a liquid crystal display projector enables in situ calibration, namely the color-to-depth relationships of particles seeded in a fluid are determined without inserting any calibration equipment or taking a different optical setup. That is, in this methodology, the calibration and application can be performed using the same optical configuration, and only the digital illumination patterns need to be changed. Adopting this calibration allows evaluating actual color-to-depth relationships of the particles in measurements. The calibration is conducted regarding the relationship between spatially distributed particle colors and their depth coordinates by support of an artificial neural network. By combining conventional PTV with the depth estimated by the color, particle trajectories in 3D real space can be reconstructed from the calibration. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated using a rotating flow in a cylindrical tank by comparing its results with the flow fields measured by conventional particle image velocimetry. Good accordance in the comparison at the highly 3D flow suggests the applicability of the present methodology for various flow configurations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

PARTICLE image velocimetry , *CAMERAS , *PIXELS , *FLOW velocity , *STATISTICAL correlation - Abstract
As an extension of single-pixel particle image velocimetry (SP-PIV), a novel method to determine both the out-of-plane and in-plane velocity fields with single-pixel resolution is presented. With this approach, called dual-plane SP-PIV, mean velocity vector fields with three components (3C) can be measured with single-pixel resolution using a single-color camera and two differently colored laser sheets. The method computes the ensemble correlation across two planes illuminated simultaneously by the two laser sheets. The method is demonstrated via an experiment in which a rotating flow is induced by an impeller. The method is validated by comparing its results with those of conventional PIV. The results show good accordance in terms of the magnitudes and spatial distributions of the out-of-plane velocities and provide a new approach to 3C velocity field measurements with high spatial resolution.

We introduce a complex image processing scheme for the simultaneous application of liquid crystal thermometry (LCT), in addition to the previously established method in Anders et al. (Exp Fluids 60(4):68, 2019. 10.1007/s00348-019-2703-8) for particle tracking velocimetry and particle image velocimetry. This scheme was developed for an experimental study on the double-diffusive convection in an aqueous ammonium chloride solution NH4Cl(aq) during crystallization. The use of thermochromic liquid crystals (TLC) enables to visualize the flow and temperature field simultaneously. We present a color interpolation method that enhances the accuracy of the LCT by yielding RGB images only representative of the TLC's coloration. An artificial neural network (ANN) which processes RGB triplets and spatial color dependencies transforms these images into temperature fields. The combination of the ANN system and a corresponding calibration procedure enhances the accuracy and measurable temperature range of the LCT compared to state-of-the-art procedures. By using the here established measurement scheme, quantitative global studies of the mutual influence between solidification and convection are enabled and exemplary results are presented.

GENETIC polymorphisms ,MYOCARDIAL infarction ,CORONARY disease ,CELL receptors ,POLYMERASE chain reaction - Abstract
CD surface molecules mediates cell activation and signaling. In particular, CD14 on blood monocytes mediate monocyte/macrophage activation by lipopolysaccharide. Lipopolysaccharide and its receptor, CD14, have been implicated in atherogenesis. It has been recently shown that a C(-260)T polymorphism in the promoter of the CD14 receptor may be a risk factor for coronary artery disease. Recently this association has been questioned because no increased risk was found with the T allele, even in the homozygous state. In the present study we investigated a possible association between the C(-260)T polymorphism in the CD14 promoter and acute myocardial infarction. Two hundred and thrteen patients with and acute myocardial infarction 213 healthy controls were included in the study. Genotype frequencies of the C(-260)T polymorphism in the CD14 promoter were determined by polimerase chain reaction and the amplified product was cleaved with HaeIII. The frequency of the T allele was not significantly different in patients compared with controls. In this study we were not able to detect differences of frequency of the allele T (-260) in the promoter of the CD14 receptor gene in survivors of myocardial infarction and controls.

- Abstract
Familial defective apolipoprotein (apo) B-100 together with familial hypercholesterolemia are the two common genetic conditions that cause hypercholesterolemia. familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 is due to mutations around codon 3500 of the apo B gene. The most-characterized mutation is a G>A transition at nucleotide 10,708 that results in the substitution of arginine by glutamine at codon 3500 (Apo B Arg3500Gln). Two other mutations are caused by a C>T transition, one at nucleotide 10,800 (Apo B Arg3531Cys) and the other at nucleotide 10,707 (apo B Arg3500Trp). In the present study we describe three new Italian cases of familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 (Apo B Arg3500Gln), one from the Liguria region and two from Sicily, and the haplotype of the apo B gene co-segregating with the mutation. By screening two groups of probands, clinically diagnosed as having Familial Hypercholesterolemia (700 from mainland Italy and 305 from Sicily), the prevalence of familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 due to Arg3500Gln was found to be very low (0.28% and 0.65%, respectively). The Arg3531Cys mutation was not detected in any proband. In the three new families with Arg3500Gln mutation in the present study and in one previously described in Italy, the mutation was associated with a unique apo B haplotype, which is consistent with data previously reported for Caucasian patients [ XbaI-, MspI+, EcoRI-, presence of the 5' signal peptide insertion (Ins)allele, and the 49-repeat allele of the 3'-VNTR].

- Abstract
Polymorphisms of apoE gene are able to modulate lipoprotein metabolism at different steps and to influence LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and also other lipoproteins features. Population studies documented large differences in the frequency of apoE alleles which could be even related to the prevalence of cardiovascular disease. In this study we evaluated the apoE genotypes and allele frequency in 576 subjects living in a small island in the Tyrrhenian Sea and the relative contribution of apoE polymorphism on plasma lipid and lipoprotein profile, including LDL particle size. We found a cumulative frequency of 0.073, 0.866 and 0.061 for ε2, ε3 and ε4 alleles respectively. Moreover ε3 subjects had only triglyceride levels significantly lower and LDL-C and lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) levels higher than ε2 carriers. LDL-particle size was significant smaller in ε2 subjects than both ε3 and ε4 carriers, but the difference disappeared when data were adjusted for triglycerides. In conclusion we have provided further evidence of a low prevalence of ε4 allele in a Mediterranean population which may represent a genetic protective factor of these populations. Environmental factors, such as diet, occurring in this area may have attenuated the influence of this gene on plasma lipoproteins. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

11. Spectral random masking: a novel dynamic masking technique for PIV in multiphase flows.

Anders, S., Noto, D., Seilmayer, M., and Eckert, S.
- Abstract
A novel masking technique for particle image velocimetry (PIV)-analysis of multiphase flows is presented. With this new approach, the velocity-field of an unmasked particle fraction (e.g., PIV-tracers) can be determined without the influence of a second (masked) particle fraction (e.g., bubbles or solid particles). Starting from a series of segmented grayscale images in which different particle fractions are determined for each frame, different masking techniques are compared. The problems caused by state of the art masking in case of dynamic masks (individual masks for each frame) are discussed. As a solution, the novel spectral random masking algorithm is presented which replaces masked regions in the images by randomized intensity patterns in order to hide them from subsequent PIV-analysis. The advantages over conventional masking techniques are demonstrated for a model experiment of crystallizing ammonium-chloride solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
