Samples of yellow eel from various locations in the Dutch Rhine area have been analyzed for trend monitoring of mercury since 1977. In the western Rhine delta mercury levels in eels have hardly changed since the seventies, whereas in the eastern part of the Dutch Rhine area a considerable decrease of mercury concentrations in eel has occurred. Because of continuous sedimentation of contaminated suspended matter transported from upstream regions, accumulation rates and concentrations of mercury in eel in the western Rhine delta remained at a relatively high level. Analyses of methyl mercury in biota have been performed to elucidate the role of methyl mercury in the mercury contamination of the Dutch Rhine ecosystem. Low percentages of methyl mercury were observed in zooplankton (3 to 35%). In benthic organisms (mussels) percentages of methyl mercury ranged from 30 to 57%, while in fish species and liver of aquatic top predator birds almost all the mercury was present in the form of methyl mercury (> 80%). During the period 1970-1990 mercury concentrations of suspended matter in the eastern Rhine delta have drastically decreased. These concentrations seemed to be highly correlated with mercury concentrations of eel (R = 0.84). The consequences of this relation are discussed.

AbstractThis paper compares findings on the distribution of support networks in the City of Liverpool and in rural communities in North Wales. It demonstrates that while support network type is highly correlated with a wide range of demographic and social variables in both urban and rural samples, the nature of the relationships are not always comparable. The paper shows how cultural, migration and socio-economic factors interact to affect the formation of different types of support networks. As a result of a more stable elderly population, more old people in Liverpool have network types able to provide a high level of informal care and support.

Background: Among all aspects of nursing care, the spiritual one is the issue that has received little attention. Having spiritual wellbeing (SWB) is a necessity to provide appropriate spiritual care. In addition to, the Emotional intelligence (EI) is one of the most important factors in social and professional success and is essential for effective nursing practice. Therefore, aim of study was evaluating the Relationship between SWB and EI among nursing students. Methods: The sample of this descriptive-analytic study consisted of 136 nursing students studying at Bam University of Medical Sciences selected by convenience sampling method. The Bradberry and Greaves 28-item EI scale, Palutzian and Ellison SWB Scale were used to assess the total score of EI and SWB. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-test and one-way ANOVA with SPSS v18. Results: The mean score of SWB and EI were 97.1±11.56 and 123.4 + 123.6, respectively. The mean score dimensions of SWB include (religious wellbeing 47.9±6.6, existential wellbeing 49.1±5.7) and dimensions EI: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management were 27.2 3 3.2, 36.2 2 5.4, 25.1 + 3.5 and 35.1 + 4.5, respectively. The majority of students have reported moderate level SWB and high level of emotional intelligence. The factors influencing their level of SWB were academic semester and age (p<0.05). Conclusion: Although the level of students' EI and SWB were at a desirable level in this study, due to the nature of nursing and the interaction between nurses and patients, providing a suitable learning environment for the development of EI is essential. Therefore, it is suggested that nursing policymakers should develop appropriate educational programs for nurses and provide curriculum for students to promote their knowledge and skills.

Municipal drawdowns at public reservoirs can negatively impact recreational uses on site. Therefore, sustaining recreation requires understanding how users relate themselves with the reservoir and the resource therein, and how they will respond to circumstances and policies impacting the resource. Researchers use placedbased theory, particularly sense of place (SOP), to assess the user community’s perspective on the natural resource or recreation site of interest. This study utilized visitor survey data (n=282) from Canton Reservoir in Oklahoma to assess visitors’ sense of place (SOP), and to evaluate the relationship of SOP with their acceptability of alternative water allocation strategies and future intention of visiting the reservoir under depleted water conditions. Visitors had a high level of SOP with the reservoir and supported protective water allocation strategies that either favor the retention of water on-site or ensure a fair distribution between recreation and municipal use. Results suggest a positive relationship between visitors' SOP and their intended trips to the reservoir even under depleted water conditions. The findings highlight the psychological, functional, and emotional benefits associated with the recreational use of the Canton Reservoir, which will in turn help managers make more informed and balanced decisions about water conservation and allocation. Insights from this study will also contribute in literature on the sense of place and protective norms and offers several implications for the management of public reservoirs.

Objective.We tested the hypothesis that an inverse association exists between diabetes mellitus (DM) and hemoglobin A1C (A1C) with Transactive response DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) levels in older adults.Methods.We leveraged antemortem and postmortem data of decedents from three community-based clinical-pathological studies. DM status, A1C levels, and medications for DM were documented annually. TDP-43 cytoplasmic inclusions, evaluated in 6 brain regions using immunohistochemistry, were used to obtain a semiquantitative TDP-43 score (0-5) in each region, and scores were averaged across regions to obtain a TDP-43 severity score. We used linear regressions to test the association of DM and A1C with the TDP-43 severity score.Results.On average, participants (n=817) were 90 years old at the time of death, three fourth were women, and one fourth had DM. The mean A1C was 6.0% (SD=0.6). TDP-43 was observed in 54% of participants, and the mean TDP-43 score was 0.7 (range 0-4.5). A higher level of A1C was associated with a lower TDP-43 score (estimate=-0.156, S.E.=0.060, p=0.009) while DM had a borderline inverse association with the TDP-43 score (estimate=-0.163, S.E.=0.087, p=0.060). The association of higher levels of A1C with lower TDP-43 scores persisted after further adjustment by Apolipoprotein ε4, vascular risk factors, stroke, and hypoglycemic medications. Exclusion of the oldest old participants did not change the results.Conclusion.Overall, the results suggest that a high level of A1C is associated with less TDP-43 proteinopathy in older persons while the relationship of DM with TDP-43 needs further study.

We examined the breeding success of common loons (Gavia immer) and made observations of loons feeding their young on small lakes (5.3–75 ha) with different alkalinities (−73 to 1804 μequiv./L) near Sudbury, Ontario. Alkalinity, pH, and conductivity were highly correlated with each other. There was a significant positive relationship between successful breeding and alkalinity on 68 lakes surveyed in 1982. Discriminant analysis showed that alkalinity, area, and colour of the lake contributed significantly to discrimination among lakes with successful, unsuccessful, and no breeding attempts. Lack of a breeding attempt tended to be associated with small, brown, low-alkalinity lakes, and successful breeding with large, clear, high-alkalinity lakes. For lakes with breeding attempts in 1982–1984, alkalinity (all years), depth (1983), and area (1984) provided significant discrimination between unsuccessful lakes and those on which young were raised. Unsuccessful breeding resulted primarily from brood mortalities on acidic lakes. Adult loons were more successful at securing fish on high-alkalinity lakes than on low-alkalinity lakes, and this may reflect differences in fish densities. A pair of loons attempting to raise a chick on a fishless, acidic lake fed the chick benthic algae and possibly benthic invertebrates, but flew to other lakes to feed themselves. We suggest that the high level of brood mortalities on acidic lakes resulted from a shortage of suitable food for the young.

This article provides preliminary validity evidence for the shorter Mandarin version of the Vocabulary Size Test (VST) under the content aspect, technical quality, substantive and generalizability aspect of Messick’s (1995) construct validity framework. The shorter version with 177 Chinese university students in three proficiency levels indicates that the test enjoys a high level of validity both from the perspective of classical test theory and item response theory. A one-way ANOVA and detailed statistics of Rasch analyses demonstrate that the test could effectively distinguish learners from different proficiency levels. The first eight levels of the VST generally display an ascending difficulty continuum except that some loan words in the seventh and the eighth level prove to be problematic in assessing Chinese learners’ vocabulary size accurately. The generalizability aspect of construct validity is demonstrated in that there is no item bias for learners of the same proficiency group in terms of gender. Compared with the results of other studies either on monolingual or bilingual version, this research attempts to justify the appropriateness of the Mandarin version and calls for cautious applications of the test instrument on Chinese learners.

Среди сложных белков молока – казеинов – чаще всего встречаются α- и β-казеин. Ген бета-казеина имеет 12 аллельных вариантов, среди которых получили преимущество варианты А1 и А2. При этом, А2 – естественная для человеческого организма разновидность белка бета-казеина, а тип А1 возник в результате природной генетической мутации. Для получения максимального объёма продукции лучшего качества при переориентации производства на молоко А2 необходимо учитывать как основные количественные показатели продуктивности крупного рогатого скота, так и коэффициенты, определяющие эффективность использования коров с точки зрения биологической полноценности продукции, такие как биологической эффективности коров (БЭК), биологической полноценности молока (КБП), кормового коэффициента (FCR) и валовой эффективности использования кормов (GFE). Представлено сравнение количественных и качественных показателей животных разного возраста и групп с учётом степени кровности по улучшающей породе, а также с учётом генотипа по бета-казеину. Впервые проведён анализ реализации биологического потенциала крупного рогатого скота костромской породы с разными аллельными вариантами гена бета-казеина. В ходе исследования установлено, что животные генотипа А2А2 по бета-казеину отличались высоким уровнем БЭК и КБП, а также характеризовались достоверно более высоким уровнем реализации сухого вещества корма в молоко (FCR, GFE), чем у животных А1А2. Так, удои у коров с генотипом А2А2 с кровностью 50% по улучшающей породе за полновозрастную лактацию на 2514 кг больше, чем у животных генотипа А1А2, а коэффициенты БЭК, КБП и FCRвыше на 39,79%, 15,81% и 0,57 кг соответственно. Among the complex proteins of milk – caseins – most often there are α- and β-casein. The beta-casein gene has 12 allelic variants, among which the A1 and A2 variants have gained advantage. At the same time A2 is a natural variety of beta-casein protein for the human body and type A1 arose as a result of a natural genetic mutation. To obtain the maximum volume of production of better quality when reorienting production to milk A2 it is necessary to take into account both the main quantitative indicators of cattle productivity and the coefficients that determine the efficiency of cows use in terms of biological usefulness of products, such as the biological efficiency of cows (BEC), the biological usefulness of milk (BUC), feed coefficient rate (FCR) and gross feed efficiency (GFE). A comparison of quantitative and qualitative indicators of animals of different ages and groups is presented, taking into account the degree of blood relationship by improving breed, as well as taking into account the genotype by beta-casein. For the first time an analysis of the implementation of the biological potential of cattle of the Kostroma breed with different allelic variants of the beta-casein gene was carried out. During the research it was established that animals of a genotype A2A2 on beta casein differed in the BEC and BUC high level and also were characterized by significantly higher level of implementation of dry matter of feed into milk (FCR, GFE), than at animals A1A2. Thus, yields in cows with a genotype A2A2 with a blood relationship of 50% for the improving breed for full-age lactation 2514 kg more than in animals of the genotype A1A2 and the coefficients of BEC, BUC and FCR are higher by 39.79%, 15.81% and 0.57 kg, respectively.
