Hemorrhagic disease (HD) caused by bluetongue virus (BTV) and epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) is the most important viral disease of farmed and wild white-tailed deer (WTD; Odocoileus virginianus) and can cause substantial mortality in susceptible hosts. Captive cervid farming is an emerging industry in Florida, an HD-enzootic region. Morbidity and mortality due to HD are major concerns among deer farmers, but the impact of HD on Florida’s cervid farming industry is unknown. Our primary objective was to determine the prevalence of epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) and bluetongue virus (BTV) among WTD submitted to the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences Cervidae Health Research Initiative (CHeRI) for post-mortem diagnostics. Our secondary objectives were to identify the predominant circulating EHDV serotypes during each sampling year and to determine the age class with the greatest proportion of EHDV- and BTV-positive post-mortem specimens. From 2016 to 2020, spleen samples from 539 farmed WTD with unexplained mortality were tested for the presence of EHDV and BTV by RT-qPCR. Overall, the prevalence of EHDV, BTV, or EHDV/BTV coinfection was 26%, 16%, and 10%, respectively, and 44% of deer (237/539) were diagnosed with HD by RT-qPCR. The predominant circulating EHDV serotype varied by year. Overall, EHDV-2 was the most commonly identified serotype (55% of PCR-positive cases), and EHDV-1 was the least frequently identified serotype (16% of PCR-positive cases). The greatest proportion of EHDV/BTV positives among mortality cases was observed in young WTD aged 3–6 months (50%–82% positive). There was a significant difference in the prevalence of EHDV/BTV by age when comparing specimens from WTD over 1 year old (p = 0.029, n = 527). Among these samples, the number of reported mortalities and the prevalence of EHDV/BTV were highest in yearling animals (56%). These data provide the first estimate of EHDV and BTV prevalence and virus serotypes among farmed WTD in Florida, identify the WTD age groups with the greatest proportions of EHDV- and BTV-positive specimens, and suggest that HD caused by these two viruses may be a major source of mortality challenging the captive cervid farming industry in Florida. 相似文献

Secretion of tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases by human fetal membranes, decidua and placenta at parturition. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

At parturition, breakdown of extracellular matrix in the fetal membranes may play a part in the rupture of the membranes and in the aetiology of premature rupture, in addition to having a regulatory role in the cell-cell interactions and signalling at the feto-maternal interface to stimulate myometrial contractility. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important enzymes for the breakdown of extracellular matrix and their activity is regulated by a family of endogenous inhibitors, the tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMPs). At parturition, alteration in the balance between MMPs and TIMPs may mediate this extracellular matrix breakdown during rupture of fetal membranes. The aims of this study were to determine if the intrauterine secretion of TIMPs changes at labour, and to characterise their cellular sources. A broad range of TIMP activities (27-30 kDa, 24 kDa and 21 kDa) were detected by reverse zymography in term amniotic fluid. There was a significant (P<0.05) decrease in the amount of TIMPs in amniotic fluid and their release with the onset of labour. The TIMPs were characterised by immunoblot as TIMPs-1, -2, -3 and -4. High levels of TIMPs were secreted by explants of chorio-decidua, decidua parietalis and placenta, with less being released by amnion. Immunolocalisation studies revealed a specific distribution pattern for each of the TIMP isoforms. Trophoblast cells of chorion laeve, decidua parietalis and placental syncytiotrophoblast demonstrated specific immunoreactivity for all four isoforms. TIMPs were also found bound to selective regions of extracellular matrix. The decrease in TIMPs during labour may permit increased breakdown of extracellular matrix in the fetal membranes and decidua at parturition, thus altering cell signalling at the feto-maternal interface and facilitating membrane rupture. 相似文献

AGS Choosing Wisely Workgroup 《Journal of the American Geriatrics Society》2014,62(5):950-960
Since 2012, the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) has also been collaborating with the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Foundation, joining its “Choosing Wisely” campaign on two separate lists of Five Things Healthcare Providers and Patients Should Question. The campaign is designed to engage healthcare organizations and professionals, individuals, and family caregivers in discussions about the safety and appropriateness of medical tests, medications, and procedures. Participating healthcare providers are asked to identify five things—tests, medications, or procedures—that appear to harm rather than help. Providers then share this information in a published article about these things on the ABIM campaign's website ( www.choosingwisely.org ). The first AGS list was published in February 2013. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: People with Parkinson's disease (PD) have a progressive loss of function eventually leading to severe disability. Although PD would be expected to have a profound impact on an individual's psychosocial health, there is relatively limited research on its psychosocial effect. The purposes of this study were (a) to examine the relationships between physical disability, depression, and control beliefs and quality of life in people with PD and (b) to characterize how these psychosocial variables differ by stage of disease. METHODS: Eighty-six individuals from five stages based on clinical disability, ages 51-87, were interviewed. Established instruments were used to measure physical disability, depression, and control beliefs. Quality of life (QOL) was rated on a 5-point Likert scale. RESULTS: A multivariable regression model including physical disability, stage of disease, depression, mastery, and health locus of control predicted QOL (R2 = 0.48), with mastery as the only significant predictor (p = .0001). There were significant differences by PD stage for all variables (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Mastery predicted quality of life in individuals with PD even when depression and physical disability were included in the model. Differences in psychosocial variables by stage of PD suggest that the psychosocial profile of PD patients may change as the disease progresses. 相似文献

Children's ratings of peers presented as mentally retarded and physically handicapped 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Third- and sixth-grade children were shown slides and tapes presenting target children as either (a) physically nonhandicapped and nonretarded, (b) physically handicapped only, (c) mentally retarded only, or (d) physically handicapped and mentally retarded. All children were rated more favorably by third graders than sixth graders and more favorably by boys than girls. Physically handicapped target children were rated more favorably than were nonhandicapped children on behavioral intentions measures but were not rated differently on an attitude scale; retarded children were also rated more favorably than were nonretarded children on the former measures but less favorably on the attitude scale. Significant interactions were noted and implications of the results discussed. 相似文献

4-Anilinoquinazolines represent an important class of protein kinase inhibitor. Modes of binding for two members of this inhibitor class were determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis of one inhibitor (4-[3-hydroxyanilino]-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline) in complex with cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) and the other (4-[3-methylsulfanylanilino]-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline) in complex with p38 kinase. In both inhibitor/kinase structures, the 4-anilinoquinazoline was bound in the ATP site with the quinazoline ring system oriented along the peptide strand that links the two domains of the protein and with the anilino substituent projecting into a hydrophobic pocket within the protein interior. In each case, the nitrogen at position-1 of the quinazoline accepted a hydrogen bond from a backbone NH (CDK2, Leu-83; p38, Met-109) of the domain connector strand, and aromatic hydrogen atoms at C2 and C8 interacted with backbone carbonyl oxygen atoms of the peptide strand. The anilino group of the CDK2-bound compound was essentially coplanar with the quinazoline ring system and occupied a pocket between Lys-33 and Phe-80. For the p38-bound inhibitor, the anilino group was angled out of plane and was positioned between Lys-53 and Thr-106 in a manner similar to that observed for the aryl substituent of the pyridinylimidazole class of inhibitor. 相似文献
