Coral Reef Ecosystems

Soft coral transplantations are widely used for rehabilitation of coral reef ecosystems and commercial needs with common method are substrated-attached and placed on the metal table frame. These methods are considered as costly. This study aimed to examine the difference in the average growth of transplanted soft corals Sinularia polydactyla and S. asterolobata, spreading on the seabed and substrate-attached methods at different location. Transplantation was conducted inside and outside Pegametan Bay, Buleleng. Soft coral fragments were spread on the seabed and attached with cement. The increased sizes and survival rates of the transplanted soft corals were observed every two weeks. The differences in the average growth rates among soft coral species, transplantation methods and locations were analyzed by three-factor ANOVA and survival rates were analyzed by using the Log-Rank test. The results showed no significant difference in the average growth rates between S. polydactyla and S. asterolobata (P =0,104) and transplantation methods (P=0,141). The average growth rate of transplanted soft corals outside was significantly higher (P=0,025) than those inside the bay. This study indicated that the interaction between soft coral species, methods, and location significantly differed the average growth rates of the transplanted soft corals. The average survival rates demonstrated that there was no significant difference among transplanted soft coral species within similar locations in both methods. In contrast, the average survival rates of transplanted soft coral outside were significantly higher than those inside the bay in both methods that reached >80%.

Soft corals are the second-largest group of biotas that consist of coral reef ecosystem other than hard corals. The ecology function of soft coral such as a place to live and shelter various types of fish, soft coral also has a high economic value as an export commodity for the ornamental aquarium and the potency in pharmacology. The great economy potency can urge to uncontrolled natural taken. One of the alternatives is by culturing with transplantation method. Environment and different growth responses among soft coral species are the factors that shows the success method research used. The aims of this research were to examine the average growth rates of different transplanted soft coral species, culturing location, and the presence of interaction between different species of transplanted soft coral and culturing location towards growth rates. The average survival rates of different species of transplanted soft corals that cultured in a different location. Culturing location was located inside and outside of Pegametan bay, Buleleng regency. There were three soft coral species Lobophytum strictum, Sinularia polydactyla and S. asterolobata with five replicates each. The soft corals were fragmented with initial size ± 25 cm2 then sewed to the cement substrate. It was placed randomly to the transplant table at different culturing locations. The increased size of each transplanted soft coral species, the number of survivals and environmental parameters were observed in every two weeks for 12 weeks. Results showed that the average growth rates of soft corals significantly differed among species (P<0.05), whereas the average growth rates of transplanted L. strictum were the lowest among others. In contrast, the average growth rates of transplanted S. polydactyla, and S. asterolobata were not significantly different (P = 0.100) at all locations. The average growth rates of all transplanted soft corals were significantly lower when cultured inside the bay (P<0.05). It is found that the different average growth rates of transplanted soft corals were due to the interaction between soft coral species and location. The results also demonstrated that the average survival rates were significantly varied among transplanted soft coral species (P<0.05). All transplanted soft corals cultured outside of the bay reached 100% survival rates. It is suggested that the morphology and anatomy of each soft coral species and environmental conditions contribute to the success of soft corals transplantation.

The Difference

Besides the second largest community in the coral reef ecosystem, the attractive shapes and colors of soft corals establish it an export commodity for the marine ornamental aquarium. The transplantation methods in soft coral are limited. Commonly method for soft coral transplantation is attached to the artificial substrate followed by placed at table frame. However, this method is easily covered by algae and costly. One of the alternative methods is vertically hanging that this method commonly applied in hard corals transplantation. This study aimed to examine the average differences of growth rates among different transplanted soft coral species, different location, and the presence of interaction between soft coral species and location towards the difference of growth rates. Moreover, it determined the average survival rates among different transplanted soft coral species at different location. There were three soft coral species,  Lobophytum strictum, Sinularia polydactyla and S. asterolobata. They were fragmented at initial size ± 25 cm2, hanging vertically in 1.5 m length, and 0.03 m diameter followed by located inside and outside the Pegametan bay, Sumberkima village, Buleleng Regency. The increased size of each transplanted soft coral species and the number of survivals and environmental parameters were observed every two weeks for 12 weeks. The average in growth rates among species, location, and interaction was analysed using two ways Anova, whereas the survival rates were tested using Log-Rank. Results showed that the average growth rates of transplanted soft coral inside the bay were significantly higher (4.53 cm2) than outside the bay (1.64 cm2). Moreover, the average growth rates of transplanted S. polydactyla were significantly higher than others (5.22 cm2), (respectively; 2.35 cm2 and 1.7 cm2). It was also indicated that different location and species did not differentiate the transplanted soft corals' average growth rate. The survival rates of the transplanted soft corals in different location were not significantly different as well.

Prastiwi DI, Soedharma D, Subhan B. 2012. Growth of transplanted soft corals Lobophytum strictum on recirculation system with different light conditions. Bonorowo Wetlands 2: 31-39. The study was conducted from August 2010 to January 2011 at the Laboratory of the Marine Science Research Center, Bogor Agricultural University, Ancol, North Jakarta using different lighting treatment at the observation pond. The first pond opened and the second pond closed using a tarpaulin. The total data of soft coral Lobophytum strictum growth was analyzed using Completely Randomized Design method. Measurements of soft coral include absolute growth, growth rate, and survival rates. In open ponds, survival rates of soft coral reached 100% until the end of the study, whereas in closed ponds (without light) only survived for 8 weeks. The average growth rate of soft coral ranged from 5.95 ± 0.31cm to 10.04 ± 0.6 cm. At the start of the study, the average width of soft coral fragments in open ponds was 5.27 ± 0.51 cm and by the end of 12 weeks, the study increased to 6.84 ± 0.72 cm. The average growth of the length and width of the soft corals in closed pond decreases every week. At the end of the study, the soft coral length was reduced by 3.55 cm, while the width was reduced by 4.28 cm. Sunlight plays an important role in the life of soft corals; this is due to the presence of zooxanthellae microsimulation that requires sunlight to photosynthesize. The results show that the survival rate of soft corals in open ponds is better than closed ponds. Analysis of variance shows that the growth of soft corals is significantly affected by light.

Management Recommendations

Merino weaner survival is poor under normal traditional management practices. Data from four trials conducted between 2001 and 2005 were used to assess the effectiveness of current industry recommendations to achieve 95% survival rates of Merino weaners. There was very little difference between 2001 and 2003 in survival of Merino weaners despite average weaning weight ranging from 20 to 24 kg between years. The recommended target weaning weight of 23 kg does not always appear to be a good predictor of survival. However, a target of 45% mature liveweight at pasture senescence achieved the industry recommendation of 95% weaner survival. Merino weaners were fed over the summer–autumn period to reach 40 kg liveweight by the time green feed became available. Weaner survival reached 93% compared with 89% survival to hogget shearing in weaners managed under normal growth paths. Furthermore, twice as many ewe weaners died in the traditional feeding program compared with the well fed ewe weaners. Differences in mortality between feeding levels in the wether weaners was less than that observed in the ewe weaners. Flock average growth rates were not useful indicators of weaner survival and there was no relationship between Merino ram estimated breeding values for weaning weight and the survival of the progeny.

Background. The role of endoglin in the Dukes B rectal cancer is still unexplored. The aim of this study was to examine the expression of endoglin (CD105) in resected rectal cancer and to evaluate the relationship between microvessels density (MVD), clinicopathological factors, and survival rates.Methods. The study included 95 primary rectal adenocarcinomas, corresponding to 67 adjacent and 73 distant normal mucosa specimens from surgical resection samples. Tumor specimens were paraffin-embedded and immunohistochemical staining for the CD105 endothelial antigen was performed to count CD105-MVD. For exact measurement of the CD105-MVD used a computer-integrated system Alphelys Spot Browser 2 was used.Results. The intratumoral CD105-MVD was significantly higher compared with corresponding adjacent mucosa (P<0.0001) and distant mucosa specimens (P<0.0001). There was no significant difference in the CD105-MVD according to patients age, gender, tumor location, grade of differentiation, histological type, depth of tumor invasion, and tumor size. The overall survival rate was significantly higher in the low CD105-MVD group of patients than in the high CD105-MVD group of patients (log-rank test,P=0.0406).Conclusion. CD105-assessed MVD could help to identify patients with possibility of poor survival in the group of stage II RC.

185 Background: Obesity is one of the factors commonly associated with pancreatic cancer risk, but its prognostic role for survival is debatable. This study aimed to determine the role of BMI in treatment outcomes of pancreatic cancer patients (pts) undergoing surgical resection followed by adjuvant therapy. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 165 consecutive pts with pancreatic cancer undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy at Indiana University Hospital between 2004 and 2008. Fifty-three pts who received adjuvant treatment [gemcitabine alone (C-group): n=19; gemcitabine + radiotherapy (CRT-group): n=34] at our institution were included in the analysis. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS); log-rank test was used to compare these outcomes between BMI groups (normal 18.5-24.99 kg/m2 vs. overweight/obese ≥ 25 kg/m2). Results: The sample comprised 53 pts (28 males; median age 62 yrs) with a median follow-up of 18.6 months (mos). Thirty pts (56.6%) had their BMIs recorded before the date of surgery, and 23 pts prior to starting adjuvant therapy. Two (3.8%) pts were underweight, 21 (39.6%) had a normal BMI and 30 (56.6%) were overweight/obese. There was no statistically significant difference in the median DFS of obese/overweight and normal BMI pts irrespective of adjuvant therapy (C or CRT) (14.47 vs. 11.80 mos; p= 0.111). Obese/overweight pts had a better median OS [25.2 vs. 14.6 mos; p=0.045 overall (25.7 vs. 16.9 mos; p= 0.143 for the CRT-group and 17.3 vs. 13.4 mos; p= 0.050 for the C-group)], 1-year survival [96.7% vs. 61.9%; p < 0.0001 overall (95% vs. 64.3%; p= 0.001 for the CRT-group, and 90% vs. 57.1%; p=0.016 with C)], and 2-year survival [52.6% vs. 25.4%; p < 0.0001 overall (60.0% vs. 30.0%; p=0.0001 for the CRT-group and 37.5% vs. 14.3%; p=0.0002 for the C-group)] than patients with normal BMI. Conclusions: In our experience, overweight/obese pts undergoing surgery followed by adjuvant therapy have better survival rates than patients with normal BMI.

Changes in the microbial community associated with environmental impacts can lead to opportunistic infections, coral disease and death. Diversity analysis and community comparison were performed on 23 collected soft Coral specimens from South China See surrounding Hainan Province (China) based on Illumina MiSeq sequencing. The results showed that Proteobacteria was the main symbiotic bacteria in soft corals. In the same geographical location, the diversity and abundance of symbiotic bacteria in the genus Sinularia are higher than genus Sarcophyton. Unlike Sinularia, the genus Sarcophyton is more inclined to Tenericutes. Furthermore, the same coral species has different bacterial community structure in different environments. The temperature difference between sampling points at 2 ℃ is the main factor affecting the results. A large number of Endozoicomonas found in stone corals have not become the dominant bacteria associated with soft corals. Coral-related pathogenic bacteria were not found in this investigation. This study provided a baseline for future studies of soft coral microbiomes, and assessment of functions of host metabolites and soft coral holobionts. Our result documented that same coral species in each locality represent identical pattern of bacterial diversity and community.

408 Background: Five year cancer specific survival rate is between 12- 70% for pT2 and higher UUTUC tumors. Adjuvant platinum based therapies have proven to improve Overall survival (OS) in observational series. Compromised renal function after surgery, delayed recovery from surgery pose challenge for adjuvant chemotherapy (AC). Thus, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is an appealing option. However, there is only limited evidence on the role of NAC in UUTUC. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of UUTUC (stage I- III) who underwent complete or partial nephroureterectomy with peri-operative chemotherapy. We then compared OS outcome among NAC vs AC groups. OS was calculated using Kaplan Meier analysis. Multivariate analysis was performed with Cox proportional hazard regression model to adjust for different variables. Results: Out of 50539 UUTUC patients reported in NCDB (2004-2016), 20121 met our inclusion criteria. 360 patients received NAC, 2617 received AC and 17144 received only surgery. Patients who received NAC were more likely to be younger, treated at academic centers, have Medicare and private insurance, have clinical T3 and higher tumor, have lower Charlson-Deyo Score (CDCC) score and undergo complete nephroureterctomy. One, three and five year OS among NAC and AC is depicted in table 1. With 150 months (m) follow up, median OS was 73.89 m for NAC and 54.14 m for AC group. A log rank test with p value=0.3437 shows no significant difference in survival rates of the two groups. Though consistent upward trend is observed in the use of NAC from 2004 to 2015, significantly higher percentages of patients still undergo only surgery without perioperative chemotherapy. Conclusions: Numerically higher mOS in NAC group was not statistically significant different from AC group. Use of perioperative chemotherapy appears to be much lower in UUTUC. Limitations that exist with this registry based study include lack of randomization, differences in surgical and radiation techniques, duration of chemotherapy, and provider/patient selection bias. Overall survival among two groups. [Table: see text]

This study looks at 10-year follow-up outcomes of alcohol septal ablation in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.Between 2000 and 2008, 40 patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (27 males, 13 females) underwent alcohol septal ablation. The median follow-up period was 123 (2–179) months. The mean age ran to 43.8 + 13.9 years. The initial dose of ethanol (3 mL) was chosen for ablation in all cases.The hospital mortality was 0%. Permanent pacemakers were implanted in 3 of 40 (7.5%) cases in the hospital period. The median clinical follow-up was 123 (2–179) months. Survival rates at 1, 5, 10, and 15 years after the procedure were as follows: 97.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 95.1–99.9%), 92.5% (95% CI, 94.8–90.2%), 85.0% (95% CI, 82.9–87.1%), and 81.3% (95% CI, 79.3–83.3%), respectively. Seven patients died during follow-up. Sudden death was observed in two cases. Permanent pacemakers were implanted in 2 of 40 (5%) cases in the follow-up. The log-rank test revealed no statistically significant difference between the 15-year survival rate in our cohort and age- and sex-matched general Russian population (p = 0.11113).Alcohol septal ablation provides long-term survival rates that look comparable with age- and sex-matched general population in the 15-year follow-up period.

Objective: to analyze the epidemiology, clinical features and survival rate of patients undergoing orbital exenteration (OE) in a tertiary referral hospital. Methods : we conducted a retrospective study of all patients undergoing OE at the Hospital das Clínicas, FMUSP between January 2007 and December 2012. We collected data records related to gender, age, origin, length of stay, duration of the disease, other treatments related to the disease, number of procedures outside of the face related to the disease, follow-up and histological diagnosis. Results : we treated 37 patients in the study period. The average survival in one year was 70%, in two years, 66.1%, and 58.3% in three years. There was no significant difference in the one-year survival related to histological diagnosis (p=0.15), days of hospitalization (p=0.17), gender (p=0.43), origin (p=0.78), disease duration (p=0.27) or the number of operations for the tumor (p=0.31). Mortality was higher in elderly patients (p=0.02). The average years of life lost was 33.9 in patients under 60 years, 14.7 in patients in the 61-80 years range and 11.3 in patients over 80 years. Conclusion : the present series of cases is significant in terms of prevalence of orbital exenteration; on the other hand, it shows one of the lowest survival rates in the literature. This suggests an urgent need for improved health care conditions to prevent deforming, radical resections.
