Technological solutions allowing the increase of the technological efficiency of anaerobic methods of wastewater treatment are still under investigation. The weaknesses of these solutions can be limited by the use of active fillings. The aim of the present study was to determine the impact of fluidized active filling on the effectiveness of anaerobic treatment of sugar-industry effluent, the production efficiency and the qualitative composition of the biogas produced. High, comparable (p = 0.05) effluent treatment results were observed at tested organic load rates between 4.0 and 6.0 kg COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand)/m3·d. The COD removal rate reached over 74%, biogas yields ranged from 356 ± 25 to 427 ± 14 dm3/kg CODremoved and the average methane contents were approximately 70%. A significant decrease in effluent treatment efficiency and methane fermentation was observed after increasing the organic load rate to 8.0 kg COD/m3·d, which correlated with decreased pH and FOS/TAC (volatile organic acid and buffer capacity ratio) increased to 0.44 ± 0.2. The use of fluidized active filling led to phosphorus removal with an efficiency ranged from 64.4 ± 2.4 to 81.2 ± 8.2% depending on the stage. Low concentration of total suspended solids in the treated effluent was also observed.

Background Hypoparathyroidism is characterised by hypocalcaemia, and standard management is with an active vitamin D analogue and adequate oral calcium intake (dietary and/or supplements). Little is described in the literature about the impact of intercurrent illnesses on calcium homeostasis in children with hypoparathyroidism. Methods We describe three children with hypoparathyroidism in whom intercurrent illnesses led to hypocalcaemia and escalation of treatment with alfacalcidol (1-hydroxycholecalciferol) and calcium supplements. Results Three infants managed with standard treatment for hypoparathyroidism (two with homozygous mutations in GCMB2 gene and one with Sanjad-Sakati syndrome) developed symptomatic hypocalcaemia (two infants developed seizures) following respiratory or gastrointestinal illnesses. Substantial increases in alfacalcidol doses (up to three times their pre-illness doses) and calcium supplementation were required to achieve acceptable serum calcium concentrations. However, following resolution of illness, these children developed an increase in serum calcium and hypercalciuria, necessitating rapid reduction to pre-illness dosages of alfacalcidol and oral calcium supplementation. Conclusion Intercurrent illness may precipitate symptomatic hypocalcaemia in children with hypoparathyroidism, necessitating increase in dosages of alfacalcidol and calcium supplements. Close monitoring is required on resolution of the intercurrent illness, with timely reduction of dosages of active analogues of vitamin D and calcium supplements to prevent hypercalcaemia, hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis.

This chapter describes the enormous reconstruction and development of the Kaohsiung fishing port after the Second World War - plus ancillary industries such as shipbuilding, ice manufacturing, and fish processing - and the impact on Taiwanese Fishing. It also addresses the Taiwanese fisheries education programme and the way it supported their development. It concludes that the construction of the Kaohsiung fishing port was a catalyst for growth in the Taiwanese fishing industry, as it dominated the waters and led to the construction of the Cianjhen fishing port in 1967, an enormous technical achievement in the region.

Sejak tahun 2011 Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan (KKP) telah menggulirkan program Pengembangan Usaha Mina Pedesaaan-Pengolahan dan Pemasaran Hasil Perikanan (PUMP-P2HP) untuk membantu mengembangkan usaha pengolahan dan pemasaran ikan, namun begitu belum banyak penelitian mengenai dampak program tersebut terhadap kelompok pengolah dan pemasaran hasil perikanan (Poklahsar) penerima bantuan. Untuk itu penting dilakukan penelitian dampak program PUMP-P2HP sebagai bahan infomasi untuk perbaikan program secara lebih akurat, efektif dan efisien. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada tahun 2014 di 9 lokasi penerima bantuan yaitu Kab. Pesisir Selatan, Kab. Cirebon, Kota Makasar, Kab. Tangerang, Kota Banda Aceh, Kab. Banjar, Kab. Sukabumi, Kota Sibolga, dan Kab.Lombok Timur. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif yang berusaha membandingkan kondisi Poklahsar sebelum dan sesudah program PUMP-P2HP yang dijalankan pada tahun 2012. Pemilihan lokasi penelitian dilakukan secara purposif terhadap daerah yang menerima bantuan PUMP-P2HP dengan keterwakilan antara wilayah barat dan timur. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan secara acak terhadap 30 responden di tiap lokasi melalui wawancara dengan menggunakan kuesioner terstruktur. Analisis data menggunakan uji-t untuk menganalisa signifikansi perubahan antara tahun sebelum implementasi program dan setelah implementasi program terhadap responden yang sama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan produksi rata-rata Poklahsar sebelum mendapatkan bantuan adalah 192 kg/siklus dengan rata-rata produktivitas 17 siklus/bulan. Produktivitas terkecil terjadi di Kota Makasar dengan angka 50 kg/siklus. Setelah mendapatkan bantuan program PUMP-P2HP, terdapat peningkatan produksi olahan ikan sebesar 66,5% pada setiap unit pengolahan dengan rata-rata produksi sebesar 320 kg/siklus. Selain itu, terdapat perbedaan pendapatan yang signifikan antara sebelum dan sesudah program PUMP. Ratarata pendapatan olahan ikan dan pemasaran perikanan sebelum adanya program PUMP-P2HP adalah Rp. 2.470.233 dan meningkat menjadi Rp. 3.727.666 setelah adanya program tersebut. Hal ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa terjadi peningkatan pendapatan pada usaha pengolahan ikan dan pemasaran perikanan di Indonesia, meskipun tidak diikuti dengan peningkatan yang signifikan pada penggunaan tenaga kerja. (Economic Impacts of PUMP Program to The Fish Processor and Marketing Enterprise)Since 2011 The Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries has been implementing Program of Rural Fisheries Businesses – Processing and Marketing of Fisheries Products (PUMP-P2HP) since to develop fisheries processing and marketing businesses. However, there are limited studies on the impact to the program recipients (fish processor groups). Therefore, it is important to study the impact of the PUMPP2HP program to obtain the improvement program information more accurately, effectively and efficiently. The study was conducted in 2014 in 9 region beneficiaries: Pesisir Selatan District, Cirebon District, Makasar Municipality, Tangerang District, Banda Aceh Municipality, Banjar District, Sukabumi District, Sibolga Municipality, and Lombok Timur District. Qualitative and quantitative approaches were used on this study to compare the conditions before and after program implemented in 2012. Research location was selected purposively towards districts which received the program with representation between western and eastern regions. Sampling was collected randomly to 30 respondents in each location by using structured questionnaires. T-test was used to analyze the changes of respondents performance due to the implemented program. Results showed that the average production of fish processing groups before program was 192 kg/cycle with average production 17 cycles/month, the smallest production was in Makasar Municipality (50 kgs/cycle). There was an increasing on production of fish processing products in every recipient business unit after receiving the program (66.5%) with average production was 320 kgs/ cycle. Furthermore, there was a significant difference in income between before and after the program implemented. The average income of the fish processor before the program was IDR 2,470,233 and increased to IDR 3,727,666 after the program. It can be concluded that the revenue of fish processors increased significantly, whereas the use of labor did not improve.

Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to determine the extent to which diets with a higher inflammatory potential, as measured by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII), are associated with cancer development in a cohort of rural post-menopausal women. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of participants of a randomized control trial evaluating the effect of vitamin D and calcium supplementation on cancer development in rural, post-menopausal women in Nebraska. From this cohort, diets were evaluated via a 2005 Block Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) at baseline and four years later (Visit 9). DII scores were calculated at both time points for each participant, including an unadjusted and energy-adjusted DII score. The relationship with DII scores and cancer development were evaluated using a chi-squared test and logistic regression, controlling for pertinent confounders. The difference in DII scores at baseline and Visit 9 for participants who developed cancer and non-cancer participants was examined via a repeated measure ANOVA test. Results There were 1977 participants with baseline and Visit 9 DII scores available for analysis. There was a significant difference in DII scores between baseline and Visit 9, with a significantly larger change in DII scores in the participants who developed cancer (p = 0.0194), shifting to higher pro-inflammatory scores at Visit 9. Cancer status was not associated with baseline DII scores, nor was DII score a predictor of cancer status, when controlling for confounders. Conclusions These findings illustrate how dietary patterns in persons diagnosed with cancer had significant changes over time, increasing inflammatory diet potential. This increase in inflammatory potential in cancer patients may impact outcomes like treatment success, overall survival, and cancer recurrence, creating a need for more research to further analyze the impact of cancer diagnoses on diet changes, and if these changes are detrimental to cancer survivor outcomes.
