Breeding beef cattle is one of the agriculture sector which is very important in Indonesia. In fact the household consumption of beef can’t be fulfilled by the production in the country. The attention to the human resources which arecattle ranchers have a vital role in the form of increasing knowledges and skills to advance the production of beef cattle. Television is one of a mass media that has potential to increase farmers’ knowledges like cultivation knowledgeand marketing knowledge in Ngantru Village, Bojonegoro District, East Java Province. The purpose of this research are 1) to analyze the characteristics, motives and patterns of breeder cattle in watching television, 2) to analyze therelation between the motifs and patterns of breeder cattle watching television with the information needs of breeding beef cattle, 3) to analyze the relation between farmers beef cattle in watching the television with the fulfillment ofinformation needs of beef cattle breeding, and 4) to analyze the relation between the information needs of farmers skills in beef breeding. This study was designed as a survey research, with a quantitative approach supported by qualitative data with the number of respondents which are 50 people selected randomly. Analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistical with Chi-Square analysis test and Spearman Rank test. The results of this research is there is a real connection between the level’s of ownership of livestock with a duration of watching television. The entertainment motif has related with beef cattle farmers’ pattern in watching television, like the frequency and duration. The frequency of beef cattle farmers in watching television also related with entertainment needs.Keywords: cattle breeding, information needs, motif, scheme, television

e22527 Background: TGP is widely used to identify targetable mutations for precision cancer treatment and clinical trials. Many patients have poor understanding of TGP and are unaware of possible secondary hereditary risks. Lack of clarity regarding the relevance of informed consent and genetic counseling further magnify risks for patients. AA patients have lower genetic knowledge and health literacy and higher MM than Caucasian patients, making them especially vulnerable in the clinical setting. Perceptions of TGP in AA cancer patients have not been well-characterized. Methods: 120 AA pts from 1 suburban and 1 urban site (Fox Chase Cancer Center[FCCC] and Temple University Hospital[TUH]) were surveyed. A k-means cluster analysis using a modified MM scale was conducted; chi-square analysis assessed demographic differences. Perceptual mapping (PM)/multidimensional scaling and vector modeling was used to create 3-dimensional maps to study how TGP barriers/facilitators differed by MM group and how message strategies for communicating about TGP may also differ. Results: Data from 112 analyzable patients from FCCC (55%) and TUH (45%) were parsed into less MM (MM-L, n = 42, 37.5%) and more MM (MM-H, n = 70, 72.5%) clusters. MM-L and MM-H clusters were demographically indistinct with no significant associations by sex (p = 0.49), education (p = 0.3), income (p = 0.65), or location (p = 0.43); only age was significant (older = higher MM, p = 0.006). Patients in the MM-H cluster reported higher concerns about TGP, including cost (p < 0.001), insurance discrimination (p < 0.001), privacy breaches (p = 0.001), test performance/accuracy (p = 0.001), secondary gain by providers (p < 0.001) and provider ability to explain results (p = 0.04). Perceptual mapping identified both shared and contrasting barriers between MM clusters (Table). Conclusions: More than 2/3 of AA patients comprised a MM-H cluster. Communication strategies should focus on concerns about family and how to discuss TGP with an oncologist. PM can identify distinct and shared information needs of vulnerable populations undergoing TGP. [Table: see text]

Genomic Predictions

Opportunities exist in beef cattle breeding to significantly increase the rates of genetic gain by increasing the accuracy of selection at earlier ages. Currently, selection of young beef bulls incorporates several economically important traits but estimated breeding values for these traits have a large range in accuracies. While there is potential to increase accuracy through increased levels of performance recording, several traits cannot be recorded on the young bull. Increasing the accuracy of these traits is where genomic selection can offer substantial improvements in current rates of genetic gain for beef. The immediate challenge for beef is to increase the genetic variation explained by the genomic predictions for those traits of high economic value that have low accuracies at the time of selection. Currently, the accuracies of genomic predictions are low in beef, compared with those in dairy cattle. This is likely to be due to the relatively low number of animals with genotypes and phenotypes that have been used in developing genomic prediction equations. Improving the accuracy of genomic predictions will require the collection of genotypes and phenotypes on many more animals, with even greater numbers needed for lowly heritable traits, such as female reproduction and other fitness traits. Further challenges exist in beef to have genomic predictions for the large number of important breeds and also for multi-breed populations. Results suggest that single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chips that are denser than 50 000 SNPs in the current use will be required to achieve this goal. For genomic selection to contribute to genetic progress, the information needs to be correctly combined with traditional pedigree and performance data. Several methods have emerged for combining the two sources of data into current genetic evaluation systems; however, challenges exist for the beef industry to implement these effectively. Changes will also be needed to the structure of the breeding sector to allow optimal use of genomic information for the benefit of the industry. Genomic information will need to be cost effective and a major driver of this will be increasing the accuracy of the predictions, which requires the collection of much more phenotypic data than are currently available.

805 Background: The alarming rise in the incidence of gastric (GC) and colorectal (CRC) adenocarcinomas in young adults (YA) over the past three decades is not well understood. How YA populations differ from older patients with the same gastrointestinal malignancies warrants further investigation. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the California Cancer Registry and the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development data for all GC and CRC cases from 2000 to 2012. Pearson’s Chi-square analysis was used to analyze differences in demographic, clinical and histopathologic features and log-rank test to compare survival between young (≤ 40 years old) and older adults (40-90 years old) with GC or CRC. Results: Of the GC (n = 19,368) and CRC (n = 117,415) patients included in the study, YA accounted for 4.5% (n = 883) of GC and 3.2% (n = 3723) of CRC. Hispanic ethnicity was more common in YA for both cancers compared to older patients (50.9% vs 26.8% GC, 29.6% vs. 15.7% CRC, p < 0.0001). YA were more likely to have poorly differentiated (74.6% vs. 59.8% GC, 22.5% vs 17.5% CRC, p < 0.0001), higher grade (77.0% vs 61.6% GC, 23.9% vs 18.6 CRC, p < 0.0001), and signet ring features (44.6% vs 21.0% GC, 3.2% vs 1.1% CRC, p < 0.0001) compared to older patients. Synchronous peritoneal metastases were more common in YA compared to older patients (32.1% vs. 14.1% GC, 8.8% vs 5.4% CRC, p < 0.0001). YA with GC or CRC had a greater 5-year survival compared with older patients with the same stage of malignancy. Subgroup analysis of Stage I GC demonstrated lower survival in YA compared with adults aged 41-49 and 50-64 years (65.1% vs. 70.7% and 69.1%, 95% CI 49.7-76.9%, 62.5-77.3%, 65.2-72.7% respectively). Conclusions: GC and CRC in young adults have distinctly worse clinical and histopathologic features compared to older patients with the same malignancy. Ethnic disparity exists in the YA patients. This study contributes to improving the understanding of younger versus older GI cancer patients.

Abstract Background Hyponatraemia, defined as a serum sodium [Na] concentration below 135 mmol/L, is common following surgery. As inpatient peri-operative stays shorten, there is a need to recognise pre-operative risk factors for post-operative hyponatraemia and complications associated with a peri-operative drop in Na. This audit aimed to investigate the prevalence of, risk factors for, and complications associated with hyponatraemia following elective primary hip and knee arthroplasty. Methods Data were collected within a retrospective audit of inpatient complications and unplanned reattendance or readmission at hospital in consecutive elective primary hip and knee arthroplasty patients in a single high throughput elective primary joint unit. The hospital’s electronic database identified 1000 patients who were admitted electively between February 2012 and June 2013 under the care of a single consultant orthopaedic surgeon for either total hip arthroplasty, total knee arthroplasty, or uni-compartmental knee arthroplasty. Groups were compared using appropriate tests, including chi-square analysis (or Fisher’s exact test), Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Wilcoxin signed-rank test. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine factors associated with hyponatraemia. Results Of the total 1000 patients, 217 (21.7%) developed post-operative hyponatraemia. Of these, 177 (81.6%) had mild (Na 130–134 mmol/L), 37 (17.1%) had moderate (Na 125–129 mmol/L), and 3 (1.4%) had severe (Na < 125 mmol/L) hyponatraemia. In multivariate analysis, age, pre-operative Na, and fasting glucose on day 1 remained significantly associated with having hyponatraemia post-operatively. There were no significant differences in reattendance at emergency departments and/or readmission within 90 days between those who had post-operative hyponatraemia whilst in hospital (39/217 = 18.0%) and those who did not (103/783 = 13.2%), or between those who were discharged with hyponatraemia (18/108 = 16.7%) and those discharged with normal Na (124/880 = 14.1%). Conclusion Approximately one fifth of elective joint arthroplasty patients had post-operative hyponatraemia. In these patients, older age, lower pre-operative Na and higher fasting glucose predicted post-operative hyponatraemia. We found no evidence that those discharged with hyponatraemia had more reattendance at emergency departments or readmission to hospital. We suggest that otherwise well patients with mild hyponatraemia can safely be discharged and followed up in the community.

Background The primary aim of this study was to compare catheter-associated infections and tip contaminations between percutaneously placed central venous catheters in the internal jugular and subclavian veins in surgical neonates undergoing major noncardiac surgery. Methods The prospectively computerized protocols of 295 procedures were analyzed retrospectively. Results One hundred twenty-nine internal jugular venous (group I) and 107 subclavian venous catheters (group S) were included. The median postconceptual age was 37 weeks in group I and 38 in group S. The weight ranged from 580 g to 4.5 kg in group I and from 820 g to 4.5 kg in group S at the time of insertion. Significantly more catheter-associated infections were observed in group I (15.5 vs. 4.7%; chi-square analysis: P &lt; 0.01). The internal jugular venous catheters were also associated with a significantly increased probability of an earlier onset of a catheter-associated infection compared with the subclavian venous catheters (log rank test: P &lt; 0.01; Cox model: P &lt; 0.01). This probability was only slightly increased by a lower weight (Cox model: P = 0.075), and it was not increased by a lower age (Cox model: P = 0.93). Significantly more catheter tips were contaminated by pathogens in group I (55.8 vs. 33.6%; chi-square analysis: P &lt; 0.01). Conclusion The internal jugular venous catheters were associated with a higher infection rate as well as earlier onset of catheter-associated infection compared with the subclavian venous catheters.

Abstract Farmer household income is certainly very closely related to expenditure. Coffee farmers in Aceh Tengah spend their income on consumptive and productive expenditures. This study aims to find out how the consumptive spending decisions and productive spending decisions of coffee farmers in Aceh Tengah District are described and to find out how the correlation between coffee farmers’ income and consumptive and productive spending decisions. The data used in this study are primary and secondary data. The analytical method used is descriptive statistics and Chi-Square analysis. The results showed that the consumptive expenditures of coffee farmers in Aceh Tengah District had a high category with a percentage of 42.2% or 62 farmers, while for productive expenditures of coffee farmers in Aceh Tengah District had a low category with a percentage of 45.6% or 67 farmers. The results of the Chi-Square analysis, namely from the results of the two analyzes, can be seen that the significance value of the correlation between income and consumptive and productive spending decisions is 0.000, which means that there is a correlation because of the Asymp value. Sig < 0.05. Moreover, the contingency coefficient (r) has a high (0.61-0.80) and moderate (0.41-0.60) correlation.
