Acaryochloris marina is a unique cyanobacterium that able to produce chlorophyll d as its primary photosynthetic pigment and thus efficiently use far-red light for photosynthesis. species have been isolated from marine environments in association with other oxygenic phototrophs, which may driven the niche-filling introduction of d. To investigate these adaptations, we sequenced complete genome A. marina. The DNA content composed 8.3 million base pairs, among largest bacterial genomes far....
Purple aerobic anoxygenic phototrophs (AAPs) are the only organisms known to capture light energy enhance growth in presence of oxygen but do not produce oxygen. The highly adaptive AAPs compose more than 10% microbial community some euphotic upper ocean waters and potentially major contributors fixation greenhouse gas CO2. We present complete genomic sequence feature analysis AAP Roseobacter denitrificans, which reveal clues its physiology. genome lacks genes that code for photosynthetic...
Despite the fact that heliobacteria are only phototrophic representatives of bacterial phylum Firmicutes, genomic analyses these organisms have yet to be reported. Here we describe complete sequence and analysis genome Heliobacterium modesticaldum, a thermophilic species belonging this unique group phototrophs. The is single 3.1-Mb circular chromosome containing 3,138 open reading frames. As suspected from physiological studies failed show photoautotrophic growth, genes encoding enzymes for...
There is a paucity of systematically captured data on the costs incurred by society-individuals, families, and communities-from untreated mental illnesses in US. However, these are necessary for decision-making actions allocation societal resources should be considered policymakers, clinicians, employers.
Objective: The purpose of this study is to examine whether differences in self-reported core competency skill gaps among U.S. governmental public health workers with and without a formal degree have changed since the last assessment 2017. Design: This cross-sectional utilizes data from 2021 Public Health Workforce Interests Needs Survey (PH WINS). Bivariate relationships were analyzed by conducting chi-square tests respondents’ supervisory level reported gaps. Multivariate logistic...
Importance Preterm infants with varying degrees of anemia have different tissue oxygen saturation responses to red blood cell (RBC) transfusion, and low cerebral may be associated adverse outcomes. Objective To determine whether RBC transfusion in preterm is increases mesenteric (Csat Msat, respectively) or decreases fractional extraction (cFTOE mFTOE, associations vary based on degree anemia, investigate the association Csat death neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) at 22 26 months...
0. Introduction The whisper of “does that sound ok to you?” is a familiar most linguists: we often hear it in the audience when presenter supports theoretical point using judgment grammaticality or ungrammaticality, and someone disagrees with judgment. In recent years growing number researchers have investigated use introspective judgments underlying work syntax linguistics more generally. As Bard, et al. (1996) put it, each linguistic “small imperfect experiment.” Schutze Cowart (1997)...
Abstract Objectives Understanding and addressing contributing factors to unmet dental need is an important public health challenge. This study investigated the prevalence of, associated with, self‐reported using a nationally representative sample of US adults. Methods was cross‐sectional Medical Expenditures Panel Survey (MEPS) from 2016. The weighted estimated among individuals aged 18 years or older. Chi‐squared multivariate logit regression with marginal effects (ie absolute risk...
Objectives: To examine the role of a formal public health degree as it relates to core competency needs among governmental employees. Design: This cross-sectional study utilizes 2017 Public Health Workforce Interests and Needs Survey (PH WINS). Bivariate relationships were analyzed by conducting χ 2 tests respondents' supervisory level reported skill gaps. Multivariate logistic regressions gaps performed holding gender, age, race/ethnicity, highest attained, current employer, type, tenure in...
The performance of a human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) enzyme immunoassay (EIA) and selective subsequent use an HHV-8 immunofluorescence assay (IFA) was tested in persons unlikely to be infected with those who had detected their saliva. IFA performed on samples within range EIA optical densities (0.15 0.35) where there considerable overlap between HHV-8-infected uninfected individuals. sensitivity the testing strategy 88%, specificity 97%.
Objective Very little is known about the association between poor mental health and oral outcomes in United Sates. This study investigated prevalence of complete tooth loss among those with without perceived a nationally representative sample noninstitutionalized U.S. adults. Methods Using cross-sectional design, we analyzed 2019 Medical Expenditures Panel Survey to determine unweighted weighted Chi-squared multivariate logit regression marginal effects were used measure health, controlling...
To determine whether preventive dental visits are associated with fewer subsequent nonpreventive and lower expenditures.Indiana Medicaid enrollment claims data (2015-2018) the Area Health Resource File.A repeated measures design individual year fixed effects examining relationship between (PDVs) (NPVs) expenditures.Not applicable.Of 28,152 adults (108,349 observation-years) meeting inclusion criteria, 36.0% had a visit, 27.8% PDV, 22.1% NPV. Compared to no PDV in prior year, at least one was...
A 24-month study of fatalities in North Carolina with high blood ethanol levels (300 mg/100 ml or over) revealed 502 cases either acute alcoholism the effects this range concentration having caused contributed to death. This investigation reassessed criteria for poisoning, including its cause and manner death, recurrent patterns common syndrome. inquiry also contrasted frequency poisoning different areas country.
Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic has affected nearly everyone, however experiences and perceptions of COVID have been different across rural urban areas in the United States, including effects on mental health. purpose current study is to examine changes levels reported anxiety depression within populations before during States. Using National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), we used a repeated cross‐sectional design adults (age 18 or older) who were sampled 2019 2020. We examined relationship...
Partnership for Patients (PfP) was a national initiative sponsored by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers Medicare Medicaid to reduce preventable hospital acquired conditions (HACs) 40% readmissions (within 30 days) 20%, end 2013 (as compared baseline CY2010). Along with partners across nation, Assistant Secretary Defense Affairs, Dr. Jonathan Woodson, pledged support PfP in June 2011. Participation Military System (MHS) marked implementation first enterprise-wide patient...
A method is described for purifying and concentrating antibody globulins from serum of dogs hyperimmunized against canine distemper, infectious hepatitis Leptospira canicola. Our data show that concentrated contain all the protective serum. The should make possible standardization content. Possible additional usage globulins, analogous to clinical human gamma globulin, has been suggested.
Objectives: To examine the relationship between preventive dental visits (PDVs) and medical expenditures while mitigating bias from unobserved confounding factors. Study Design: Retrospective data analysis of Indiana Medicaid enrollment claims (2015-2018) Area Health Resources Files. Methods: An instrumental variable (IV) approach was used to estimate PDVs pharmacy among enrollees. The instrument defined as number adult enrollees with at least 1 nonpreventive claim per total within a Census...
Abstract: Objective. We sought to measure the association of dental provider density and receipt care among Medicaid-enrolled adults. Methods. used four years Indiana Medicaid claims enrollment data (2015 2018) Area Health Resources File examine relationship between any visit (ADV) or preventive (PDV) three county-level measures (the total number Medicaid-participating dentists, a binary indicator federally qualified health center (FQHC) with dentist, overall county dentist-to-population...
