Additive Influence

The warm mix regeneration technology has prominent economical efficiency that can not only reduce the secondary aging of new asphalt and old asphalt in RAP materials during the production process, but also improve the use proportion of RAP materials. As for the increase of RAP dosage and the warm mix additive added to influence the plant regenerated asphalt mixture performance, this paper adopts two kinds of warm mix additive for the test and analysis of the warm mix regenerated asphalt mixture performance with 20% and 60% RAP. The results indicate that magnify the proportion of RAP percentage makes contribution to further improve high-temperature performance of the regenerated mixture, but it has adverse effects on water resistant damage performance and low-temperature performance. At the same time, adopting the warm mix additive can significantly reduce the adverse effect, so warm mix regenerated technology has better feasibility.

Study Results

Background and Objectives: Androgens play a significant role in the development of male reproductive organs. The clinical use of synthetic testosterone derivatives, such as nandrolone, is focused on maximizing the anabolic effects and minimizing the androgenic ones. Class II anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS), including nandrolone, are rapidly becoming a widespread group of drugs used both clinically and illicitly. The illicit use of AAS is diffused among adolescent and bodybuilders because of their anabolic proprieties and their capacity to increase tolerance to exercise. This systematic review aims to focus on side effects related to illicit AAS abuse, evaluating the scientific literature in order to underline the most frequent side effects on AAS abusers’ bodies. Materials and Methods: A systematic review of the scientific literature was performed using the PubMed database and the keywords “nandrolone decanoate”. The inclusion criteria for articles or abstracts were English language and the presence of the following words: “abuse” or “adverse effects”. After applying the exclusion and inclusion criteria, from a total of 766 articles, only 148 were considered eligible for the study. Results: The most reported adverse effects (found in more than 5% of the studies) were endocrine effects (18 studies, 42%), such as virilization, gynecomastia, hormonal disorders, dyslipidemia, genital alterations, and infertility; cardiovascular dysfunctions (six studies, 14%) such as vascular damage, coagulation disorders, and arteriosus hypertension; skin disorders (five studies, 12%) such as pricking, acne, and skin spots; psychiatric and mood disorders (four studies, 9%) such as aggressiveness, sleep disorders and anxiety; musculoskeletal disorders (two studies, 5%), excretory disorders (two studies, 5%), and gastrointestinal disorders (two studies, 5%). Conclusions: Based on the result of our study, the most common adverse effects secondary to the abuse of nandrolone decanoate (ND) involve the endocrine, cardiovascular, skin, and psychiatric systems. These data could prove useful to healthcare professionals in both sports and clinical settings.

The culture of watermelon develops mainly under conditions of high temperature, being the temperature an element that directly affects the emission of vegetative and reproductive organs. There are no reports of the accumulation of temperature required for emission of branches, nodes and flowers. Thus, this experiment aimed to evaluate the rate of emission of vegetative and reproductive organs for hybrids of watermelon in relation to air temperature, using the hybrids of Manchester and Top Gun watermelons. The experiment was conducted in Federal University of Santa Maria, campus Frederico Westphalen-RS, from September to December 2014. Evaluations were conducted at every two days and it was determined the variables: nodes emission, final number of nodes on the main stem, number of primary and secondary ramifications and number of staminate flowers and open pistillate flowers related to accumulated thermal sum for the emission of such organs, and the ratio between the number of staminate flowers to the pistillate. The hybrids of watermelon present for plastochron of 18.8 °C node day, final number of nodes of the main ramification of 43 and number of primary and secondary ramifications of eight and 20, respectively. For the emission of staminate and pistillate flowers the hybrids need an accumulation 10.5 and 46.7 °C day, respectively. The number of staminate and pistillate flowers is 52 and nine, respectively, and the ration between flowers of 6.6:1.

Accident And Emergency

Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) has multiple adverse effects on human health, high temperatures are also associated with adverse health outcomes, and the frequency of cardiovascular events (CVEs) varies with season. We investigated a hypothesized increase in PM-related accident and emergency (A&E) presentations for CVE with high temperature, warm season, days of high influenza incidence, and in people with a cancer diagnosis, using a time-stratified case-crossover study design. Outcomes were associations of A&E presentation for CVE with atmospheric PM ≤ 10 μm (PM10), season, and air temperature. PM10 levels in the municipality of residence (exposure variable) were estimated by modeling data from local monitoring stations. Conditional logistic regression models estimated odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for presentations in relation to supposed influencers, adjusting for confounders. Study participants were all who presented at the A&E of a large hospital near Milan, Italy, for a CVE (ICD-9: 390–459) from 1st January 2014 to 31st December 2015. There were 1349 A&E presentations for CVE in 2014–2015 and 5390 control days. Risk of A&E presentation was significantly increased on hot days with OR 1.34 (95%CI 1.05–1.71) per 10 μg/m3 PM10 increment (as mean PM10 on day of presentation, and 1 and 2 days before (lags 0–2)), and (for lag 0) in autumn (OR 1.23, 95%CI 1.09–1.37) and winter (OR 1.18, 95%CI 1.01–1.38). Risks were also significantly increased when PM10 was on lag 1, in people with a cancer diagnosis in the spring and summer months (1.88, 95%CI 1.05–3.37), and on days (lags 0–2) of high influenza incidence (OR 2.34, 95%CI 1.01–5.43). PM10 levels exceeded the 50 μg/m3 “safe” threshold recommended by the WHO and Italian legislation for only 3.8% of days during the warm periods of 2014–2015. Greater risk of A&E presentation for CVE in periods of high PM10 and high temperature suggests that “safe” thresholds for PM10 should be temperature-dependent and that the adverse effects of PM10 will increase as temperatures increase due to climate change.
