Abstract

Background Aeromonas virulence may not be entirely dependent on the host's immune status. Pathophysiologic determinants of disease progression and severity remain unclear. Methods One hundred five patients with Aeromonas infections and 112 isolates were identified, their clinical presentations and outcomes were analyzed, and their antimicrobial resistance (AMR) patterns were assessed. Two isolates (A and B) from fatal cases of Aeromonas dhakensis bacteremia were characterized using whole-genome sequencing. Virulence factor- and AMR-encoding genes from these isolates were compared with a well-characterized diarrheal isolate A. dhakensis SSU and environmental isolate Aeromonas hydrophila American Type Culture Collection_7966T. Results Skin and soft tissue infections, traumatic wound infections, sepsis, burns, and intraabdominal infections were common. Diabetes, malignancy, and cirrhosis were frequent comorbidities. Male sex, age ≥ 65 years, hospitalization, burns, and intensive care admission were associated with complicated disease. High rates of AMR to carbapenems and piperacillin-tazobactam were found. Treatment failure was observed in 25.7% of cases. Septic shock and hospital-acquired infections were predictors of treatment failure. All 4 isolates harbored assorted broad-spectrum AMR genes including blaOXA , ampC , cphA , and efflux pumps. Only clinical isolates possessed both polar and lateral flagellar genes, genes for various surface adhesion proteins, type 3 and 6 secretion systems and their effectors, and toxin genes, including exotoxin A. Both isolates A and B were resistant to colistin and harbored the mobile colistin resistance-3 (mcr-3) gene. Conclusions Empirical therapy tailored to local antibiograms may facilitate favorable outcomes, while advanced diagnostic methods may aid in identifying correct Aeromonas spp. of significant clinical importance.

Abstract

PFS (Prime Focus Spectrograph), a next generation facility instrument on the 8.2-meter Subaru Telescope, is a very wide-field, massively multiplexed, optical and near-infrared spectrograph. Exploiting the Subaru prime focus, 2394 reconfigurable fibers will be distributed over the 1.3 deg field of view. The spectrograph has been designed with 3 arms of blue, red, and near-infrared cameras to simultaneously observe spectra from 380nm to 1260nm in one exposure at a resolution of ~1.6-2.7A. An international collaboration is developing this instrument under the initiative of Kavli IPMU. The project is now going into the construction phase aiming at undertaking system integration in 2017-2018 and subsequently carrying out engineering operations in 2018-2019. This article gives an overview of the instrument, current project status and future paths forward., Comment: 17 pages, 10 figures. Proceeding of SPIE Astronomical Telescopes and Instrumentation 2016

Abstract

Improvements in the precision of the astrophysical flux scale are needed to answer fundamental scientific questions ranging from cosmology to stellar physics. The unexpected discovery that the expansion of the universe is accelerating was based upon the measurement of astrophysical standard candles that appeared fainter than expected. To characterize the underlying physical mechanism of the "Dark Energy" responsible for this phenomenon requires an improvement in the visible-NIR flux calibration of astrophysical sources to 1% precision. These improvements will also enable large surveys of white dwarf stars, e.g. GAIA, to advance stellar astrophysics by testing and providing constraints for the mass-radius relationship of these stars. ACCESS (Absolute Color Calibration Experiment for Standard Stars) is a rocket-borne payload that will enable the transfer of absolute laboratory detector standards from NIST to a network of stellar standards with a calibration accuracy of 1% and a spectral resolving power of R = 500 across the 0.35-1.7 micron bandpass. Among the strategies being employed to minimize calibration uncertainties are: (1) judicious selection of standard stars (previous calibration heritage, minimal spectral features, robust stellar atmosphere models), (2) execution of observations above the Earth's atmosphere (eliminates atmospheric contamination of the stellar spectrum), (3) a single optical path and detector (to minimize visible to NIR cross-calibration uncertainties), (4) establishment of an a priori error budget, (5) on-board monitoring of instrument performance, and (6) fitting stellar atmosphere models to the data to search for discrepancies and confirm performance., Comment: 14 pages, 13 figures

Abstract

ABCC6 mediates release of ATP from hepatocytes into the blood. Extracellularly, ATP is converted into the mineralization inhibitor pyrophosphate. Consequently, inactivating mutations in ABCC6 give low plasma pyrophosphate and underlie the ectopic mineralization disorder pseudoxanthoma elasticum. How ABCC6 mediates cellular ATP release is still unknown. Fluorescent ABCC6 fusion proteins would allow mechanistic studies, but fluorophores attached to the ABCC6 N‐ or C‐terminus result in intracellular retention and degradation. Here we describe that intramolecular introduction of fluorophores yields fully functional ABCC6 fusion proteins. A corresponding ABCC6 variant in which the catalytic glutamate of the second nucleotide binding domain was mutated, correctly routed to the plasma membrane but was inactive. Finally, N‐terminal His10 or FLAG tags did not affect activity of the fusion proteins, allowing their purification for biochemical characterization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

14. A Model Computer Literacy Course.

Author

Orndorff, Joseph

Abstract

Designed to address the varied computer skill levels of college students, this proposed computer literacy course would be modular in format, with modules tailored to address various levels of expertise and permit individualized instruction. An introductory module would present both the history and future of computers and computing, followed by an overview of computer hardware, software, and basic concepts and phrases. Students would then be introduced to basic MS-DOS commands, and a closing module would raise issues related to the ethics of computer use, privacy, and the social impact of computers. Other basic modules would introduce students to text processing, spreadsheet and database management, programming languages, and further information on MS-DOS or other operating systems. Advanced modules would be developed as needed. Instruction would be delivered in a variety of ways, including lecture, instructional videotapes, interactive disks, use of a projector tied to a PC, or completely individualized work combined with recitation classes. In order to facilitate the development of such a program, a structure within the institution should be established which includes an advisory committee to plan and implement the program, and a core of faculty, staff and students with computer expertise to develop the program.

15. Using Computers and Original Texts to Teach Critical Reading and Thinking.

Author

Orndorff, Joseph

Abstract

While ability to read and think critically is the very basis of post-secondary education, increasing numbers of college students lack these skills. A sequence of two courses in critical reading and thinking are currently offered in the Concentrated Studies program at Duquesne University in Pennsylvania. In these courses, students who are inadequate readers study original texts (such as the writings of Aeschylus, Melville, and Tolstoy), and make use of innovative computer aids that provide coaching and drill-and-practice support. The computer programs--ABSTRACT, which teaches how to analyze a work for literary genre and structure, and INTERLOCUTOR, which allows teachers to create tutorials for machine-readable text--are original, and are written for IBM personal computers. The courses link texts to critical skills, for example, applying grammatical structure to Aristotle, or propositional logic to Machiavelli. The success of the approach has been demonstrated by retention, student achievement, and increase in the ability of Duquesne students to read and think critically. (SKC)

Abstract

We present the design overview and on-telescope performance of the WIYN High Resolution Infrared Camera (WHIRC). As a dedicated near-infrared (0.8-2.5 ?m) camera on the WIYN Tip-Tilt Module (WTTM) port, WHIRC can provide near-diffraction-limited imaging with an FWHM of ?0.25''at Kswith active WTTM correction and does deliver typical imaging with an FWHM of ?0.6''without WTTM. WHIRC uses a 2048 × 2048 HgCdTe array from Raytheon's VIRGO line, which has been developed for the VISTA project. The WHIRC filter complement includes J, H, Ks, and 10 narrowband filters. WHIRC's compact design makes it the smallest near-infrared camera with this capability. We determine a gain of 3.3 ± 0.2 e-ADU-1via a photon transfer analysis and a readout noise of ?19 e-. A measured dark current of 0.13 e-s-1indicates that the cryostat is extremely light tight. A plate scale of 0.099''× 0.10''pixel-1results in a field of view (FOV) of 3.3'× 3.4', which is a compromise between the highest angular resolution achievable and the largest FOV correctable by WTTM. Measured throughput values (?0.27 ± 0.02 in Hband) are consistent with those predicted for WHIRC based on an analysis of individual optical elements and detector quantum efficiency (QE). WHIRC's photometric quality is better than ?0.02 magnitudes in all bands. WHIRC is a general use instrument at the WIYN telescope enabling high-definition near-infrared imaging studies of a wide range of astronomical phenomena including star formation regions, stellar populations, and interstellar medium in nearby galaxies, high- zgalaxies, and transient phenomena.
