Capsule No case of parasitic interaction was found after 12 years of intensive monitoring of a marked population in Spain where both species are sympatric.

Aims To evaluate whether the Azure-winged Magpie is parasitized, and suggest possible causes that affect its relationship with the Great Spotted Cuckoo.

Methods Data from a long-term field study of marked individuals in a population of Azure-winged Magpie in Spain, were collected from about 60 nests per year over 12 years.

Results Although common in the area, no eggs or young of the Great Spotted Cuckoo were found in an Azure-winged Magpie nest.

Conclusion The Great Spotted Cuckoo does not appear to parasitize the Azure-winged Magpie, and we suggest that elevated predation rates on nests may be an important, overlooked factor potentially affecting the choice of host species by this brood parasite.  相似文献

Abstract

The sugarcane aphid, Melanaphis sacchari (Zehntner), is a major pest in diverse sorghum-growing regions, affecting yields if no effective control measures are implemented. The objective of this study was to evaluate the field efficacy of commercial formulations of biorational insecticides against this pest. All the evaluated biorational insecticides exerted acceptable biological efficacy for at least 7 days after application. The insecticides based on fatty acid potassium salts (Ultralux® S and Impide®) maintained aphid density below the established threshold of 50 aphids per leaf up to 14 days after application. The results obtained suggest that biorational insecticides can be included in the integrated management of M. sacchari.  相似文献

PurposeTo determine the field output correction factors of the radiophotoluminescence glass dosimeter (RPLGD) in parallel and perpendicular orientations with reference to CC01, the ionization chamber.MethodsThe dose to a small water volume and the sensitive volume of the RPLGD and the IBA-CC01 were determined for 6-MV, 100-cm SAD, 10-cm depth using egs_chamber user-code. The RPLGD in perpendicular and parallel orientations to the beam axis were studied. The field output correction factors of each detector for 0.5 × 0.5 to 10 × 10 cm2 field sizes were determined. These field output correction factors were validated by comparing field output factors against data determined from IAEA-AAPM TRS-483 code of practice.ResultsThe field output correction factors of all detectors were within 5% for field sizes down to 0.8 × 0.8 cm2. For 0.5 × 0.5 cm2, the field output correction factors of CC01, RPLGD in perpendicular and parallel orientations differed from unity by 14%, 19%, and 5%, respectively. The percentage difference between field output factors determined using RPLGD and CC01 data, corrected using the field output correction factors determined in this work and measurements with CC01 data corrected using TRS-483, was less than 3% for all field sizes, except for the smallest field size of RPLGD in perpendicular orientation and the CC01.ConclusionsThe field output correction factors of RPLGD and CC01 are reported. The validation proves that RPLGD in parallel orientation combined with the field output correction factors is the most suitable for determining the field output factors for the smallest field used in this study.  相似文献

An understanding of transport, flow, diffusivity and mass transfer processes is of central importance in many fields of environmental biotechnology such as biofilm, bioreactor and membrane engineering, soil and groundwater bioremediation, and wastewater treatment. Owing to its remarkable sensitivity to molecular displacements and to its noninvasive and nondestructive character, pulsed field gradient (PFG) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) can be a valuable tool for investigating such processes. In conventional NMR microscopy, spatial encoding is achieved by using static magnetic field gradients (B 0 gradients). However, an interesting alternative is to use radio-frequency magnetic field gradients (RF or B 1 gradients). Although the latter are less versatile than the former, RF field gradient microscopy is particularly suitable for dealing with heterogeneous systems such as porous media because of its quasi-immunity to background static magnetic field gradients arising from magnetic susceptibility inhomogeneities, unlike the B 0 gradients microscopy. Here, we present an overview of basic principles and the main features of this technique, which is still relatively unused. Different examples of diffusion imaging illustrate the potentialities of the method in both micro-imaging and the measurement of global or local diffusion coefficients within membranes and at liquid–solid interfaces. These examples suggest that a number of environmental problems could benefit from this technique. Different future prospects of application of B 1 gradient NMR microscopy in environmental biotechnology are considered. Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2001) 26, 53–61.

BackgroundThe comparison between profiles during the commissioning of the treatment planning system is an essential procedure. It is impossible to designate a field size for off-axis, wedged, and FFF beams directly by using the definition of the on-axis symmetric field size. This work proposes the use of different characteristic points as indicators of the field size for commissioning and QA purposes. This work aimed to search for the beam profile’s characteristic points and use them for the TPS commissioning purposes.Materials and methodsThe proposal is to use profile inflection points as the beam profile characteristic points. The usage of dedicated software allowed for comparing distances between inflection points and between points of 50% intensity. For the off-axis, wedged, and FFF fields, comparisons were made to the nominal field sizes.ResultsDistances between inflection points proved to be different by less than 1 mm from nominal field sizes for all kinds of investigated beams.ConclusionsInflection points are convenient for comparing the off-axis, wedged, and FFF field sizes because of their independence from profile normalization. With finite accuracy, the inflection points could be used for the above kind of beam sizes designation.  相似文献

BackgroundIn some clinical situations breast or chest wall radiotherapy for cancer is given in association with supraclavicular fossa irradiation. Often the treatment is delivered by two tangential fields to the breast or chest wall and an anterior field that irradiates the supraclavicular region. The tissue between the breast or chest wall and the supraclavicular region may be under or overdosed, because of the junction between the two tangential fields and the anterior field.PurposeTo present a new isocentric technique for exact geometric matching between the two tangential fields and the anterior field.MethodsPatients are positioned with both arms raised. Using three-dimensional trigonometry, two half-fields, with isocenter between the breast and the supraclavicular region, are easily matched. The tangential fields have a collimator rotation to protect the lung without additional shielding. The correct gantry, collimator and couch positions are defined for the anterior field to match the tangential fields.ConclusionsA general formula for exact geometric matching in radiotherapy of the breast and supraclavicular fossa is presented. The method does not require additional shielding to eliminate divergence other than the four independent jaws. The result is simple to implement in modern delivery facilities.  相似文献

AimAiming at analysing the signal conduction in muscular fibres, the spatio-temporal dynamics of the magnetic field generated by the propagating muscle action potential (MAP) is studied.MethodIn this prospective, proof of principle study, the magnetic activity of the intrinsic foot muscle after electric stimulation of the tibial nerve was measured using optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs). A classical biophysical electric dipole model of the propagating MAP was implemented to model the source of the data. In order to account for radial currents of the muscular tubules system, a magnetic dipole oriented along the direction of the muscle was added.ResultsThe signal profile generated by the activity of the intrinsic foot muscles was measured by four OPM devices. Three OPM sensors captured the spatio-temporal magnetic field pattern of the longitudinal intrinsic foot muscles. Changes of the activation pattern reflected the propagating muscular action potential along the muscle. A combined electric and magnetic dipole model could explain the recorded magnetic activity.InterpretationOPM devices allow for a new, non-invasive way to study MAP patterns. Since magnetic fields are less altered by the tissue surrounding the dipole source compared to electric activity, a precise analysis of the spatial characteristics and temporal dynamics of the MAP is possible. The classic electric dipole model explains major but not all aspects of the magnetic field. The field has longitudinal components generated by intrinsic structures of the muscle fibre. By understanding these magnetic components, new methods could be developed to analyse the muscular signal transduction pathway in greater detail. The approach has the potential to become a promising diagnostic tool in peripheral neurological motor impairments.  相似文献

Segregation of partly melted DNA molecules is a convenient and efficient method to isolate DNA fragments associated with CpG islands. The method stands on the observation that the electrophoretic mobility of partly melted DNA fragments in a denaturing gradient gel is low and that they persist in the gel so long as the remaining helical part is sufficiently resistant to strand dissociation and dissociates slowly. Such features are observed in DNA fragments derived from CpG islands. These DNA fragments are preferentially retained in a denaturing gradient gel after prolonged electric field exposure, permitting the enrichment of DNA fragments derived from CpG islands. The principle and practical application of this method are reviewed.  相似文献

AimTo validate the Acuros®XB (AXB) dose calculation algorithm for a 6 MV beam from the Varian TrueBeam treatment units.BackgroundCurrently Anisotropic Analytic Algorithm (AAA) is clinically used on authors’ department but AXB could replace it for VMAT treatments in regions where inhomogeneities and free air are present.Materials and methodsTwo steps are followed in the validation process of a new dose calculation algorithm. The first is to check the accuracy of algorithm for a homogenous phantom and regular fields. Multiple fields of increasing complexity have been acquired using a MapCheck diode array. The accuracy of the algorithm was evaluated using the gamma analysis method. The second is to validate the algorithm in the presence of heterogeneous media. Planar absolute dose was measured with GafChromic®EBT2 film and was compared with the dose calculated by AXB. Gamma analysis was performed between MapCheck measurements and AXB dose calculations, at a range of clinical source-surface distance.ResultsFor SSDs ranging from 80 to 100 cm, the results show a minimum pass rate of 95% between AXB and MapCheck acquisition. For open 6 MV photon beam interacting with a phantom with an air gap, the agreement after the air gap between AXB and GafChromic®EBT2 is less than 1% in the 3 × 3cm2 field and less than 2% in the 10 × 10 cm2 field.ConclusionsAXB has advanced modelling of lateral electron transport that enables a more accurate dose calculation in heterogeneous regions and, compared with AAA, improves accuracy between different density interfaces. This will be of particular benefit for head/neck treatments.  相似文献

BackgroundSymmetry and flatness are two quantities which should be evaluated in the commissioning and quality control of an electron beam in electron beam radiotherapy. The aim of this study is to compare symmetry and flatness obtained using three different dosimeters for various small and large fields in electron beam radiotherapy with linac.Materials and methodsBeam profile measurements were performed in a PTW water phantom for 10, 15 and 18 MeV electron beams of an Elekta Precise linac for small and large beams (1.5 × 1.5 cm2 to 20 × 20 cm2 field sizes). A Diode E detector and Semiflex-3D and Advanced Markus ionization chambers were used for dosimetry.ResultsBased on the obtained results, there are minor differences between the responses from different dosimeters (Diode E detector and Semiflex-3D and Advanced Markus ionization chambers) in measurement of symmetry and flatness for the electron beams. The symmetry and flatness values increase with increasing field size and electron beam energy for small and large field sizes, while the increases are minor in some cases.ConclusionsThe results indicate that the differences between the symmetry and flatness values obtained from the three dosimeter types are not practically important.  相似文献

Background

Bioinformatics has gained much attention as a fast growing interdisciplinary field. Several attempts have been conducted to explore the field of bioinformatics by bibliometric analysis, however, such works did not elucidate the role of visualization in analysis, nor focus on the relationship between sub-topics of bioinformatics.

Results

First, the hotspot of bioinformatics has moderately shifted from traditional molecular biology to omics research, and the computational method has also shifted from mathematical model to data mining and machine learning. Second, DNA-related topics are bridge topics in bioinformatics research. These topics gradually connect various sub-topics that are relatively independent at first. Third, only a small part of topics we have obtained involves a number of computational methods, and the other topics focus more on biological aspects. Fourth, the proportion of computing-related topics hit a trough in the 1980s. During this period, the use of traditional calculation methods such as mathematical model declined in a large proportion while the new calculation methods such as machine learning have not been applied in a large scale. This proportion began to increase gradually after the 1990s. Fifth, although the proportion of computing-related topics is only slightly higher than the original, the connection between other topics and computing-related topics has become closer, which means the support of computational methods is becoming increasingly important for the research of bioinformatics.

Conclusions

The results of our analysis imply that research on bioinformatics is becoming more diversified and the ranking of computational methods in bioinformatics research is also gradually improving.

Abstract

The blood marker iophenoxic acid, and the fluorescent dye rhodamine B, were evaluated as means of assessing bait consumption in the ferret, Mustela furo. Iophenoxic acid was elevated above baseline concentrations for a minimum of 28 days after dosing, indicating that it is a suitable medium‐term marker. Rhodamine B marked ferrets for a maximum of 7 days, and would therefore have limited operational use with feral ferrets. Iophenoxic acid was used in a field trial to assess the effectiveness of a newly developed baiting strategy for control of wild ferrets. All 21 ferrets captured after field baiting with iophenoxic acid had elevated levels of serum iodine, indicating that the newly developed baiting strategy is highly effective for marking ferrets.  相似文献

BackgroundGlycans, complex oligosaccharides, are directly involved in almost every biological process, have a fundamental role in the immune system, and are probably involved in nearly every human disease. However, glycosylation has been greatly ignored in the area of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) and graft versus host disease (GVHD). Both acute and chronic GVHD are multisystemic debilitating immunological disturbances arising after alloHSCT.Scope of reviewIn this paper, we review the glycosylation research already done in the field of alloHSCT and GVHD and evaluate further potential of glycan analysis in GVHD by looking into resembling inflammatory and autoimmune conditions.Major ConclusionsGlycan research could bring significant improvement in alloHSCT procedure with reduction in following complications, such as GVHD. Identifying glycan patterns that induce self-tolerance and the ones that cause the auto- and allo-immune response could lead to innovative and tissue-specific immunomodulative therapy instead of the current immunosuppressive treatment, enabling preservation of the graft-versus-tumor effect. Moreover, improved glycan pattern analyses could offer a more complete assessment and greatly needed dynamic biomarkers for GVHD.General significanceThis review is written with a goal to encourage glycan research in the field of alloHSCT and GVHD as a perspective tool leading to improved engraftment, discovery of much needed biomarkers for GVHD, enabling an appropriate therapy and improved monitoring of therapeutic response.

AimDetermine the 1) effectiveness of correction for gradient-non-linearity and susceptibility effects on both QUASAR GRID3D and CIRS phantoms; and 2) the magnitude and location of regions of residual distortion before and after correction.BackgroundUsing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a primary dataset for radiotherapy planning requires correction for geometrical distortion and non-uniform intensity.Materials and MethodsPhantom Study: MRI, computed tomography (CT) and cone beam CT images of QUASAR GRID3D and CIRS head phantoms were acquired. Patient Study: Ten patients were MRI-scanned for stereotactic radiosurgery treatment. Correction algorithm: Two magnitude and one phase difference image were acquired to create a field map. A MATLAB program was used to calculate geometrical distortion in the frequency encoding direction, and 3D interpolation was applied to resize it to match 3D T1-weighted magnetization-prepared rapid gradient-echo (MPRAGE) images. MPRAGE images were warped according to the interpolated field map in the frequency encoding direction. The corrected and uncorrected MRI images were fused, deformable registered, and a difference distortion map generated.ResultsMaximum deviation improvements: GRID3D, 0.27 mm y-direction, 0.07 mm z-direction, 0.23 mm x-direction. CIRS, 0.34 mm, 0.1 mm and 0.09 mm at 20-, 40- and 60-mm diameters from the isocenter. Patient data show corrections from 0.2 to 1.2 mm, based on location. The most-distorted areas are around air cavities, e.g. sinuses.ConclusionsThe phantom data show the validity of our fast distortion correction algorithm. Patient-specific data are acquired in <2 min and analyzed and available for planning in less than a minute.  相似文献
