This study expands the idea of improving the quality of CRW by controlling the microbiome. High rates of infant death associated with sleeping practices continue to persist in the United States. Infants spend a large portion of their day with child care and family child care learning home providers. Safe sleeping practices continue to be an area of need for care providers of young children. The current study examines data drawn from a publicly available database of child care licensing reports in Georgia (n = 3,501), which contained data on child care centres and family child care learning homes. Information in the database included characteristics of the centres, year of data collection and the specific violations by child care provider type. Results indicated clear differences in the prevalence of violations between child care centres and family child care learning homes. Within the overall sample, 13.3% of centres and family child care learning homes were cited for safe sleeping practice violations with higher prevalence in licensed child care centres and unaccredited centres. Violations were consistent with those commonly found in child care environments and inconsistent with the American Academy of Pediatrics safe sleep recommendations. Data from the current study suggest a continued need for professional learning on safe sleep practices.Data from the current study suggest a continued need for professional learning on safe sleep practices.There is a growing interest in developing 3D microscopy for the exploration of thick biological tissues. Recently, 3D X-ray nanocomputerised tomography has proven to be a suitable technique for imaging the bone lacunocanalicular network. This interconnected structure is hosting the osteocytes which play a major role in maintaining bone quality through remodelling processes. 3D images have the potential to reveal the architecture of cellular networks, but their quantitative analysis remains a challenge due to the density and complexity of nanometre sized structures and the need to handle and process large datasets, for example, 20483 voxels corresponding to 32 GB per individual image in our case. In this work, we propose an efficient image processing approach for the segmentation of the network and the extraction of characteristic parameters describing the 3D structure. These parameters include the density of lacunae, the porosity of lacunae and canaliculi, and morphological features of lacunae (volume, surface area, lengths, anisotropy etc.). We also introduce additional parameters describing the local environment of each lacuna and its canaliculi. The method is applied to analyse eight human femoral cortical bone samples imaged by magnified X-ray phase nanotomography with a voxel size of 120 nm, which was found to be a good compromise to resolve canaliculi while keeping a sufficiently large field of view of 246 μm in 3D. The analysis was performed on a total of 2077 lacunae showing an average length, width and depth of 17.1 μm × 9.2 μm × 4.4 μm, with an average number of 58.2 canaliculi per lacuna and a total lacuno-canalicular porosity of 1.12%. The reported descriptive parameters provide information on the 3D organisation of the lacuno-canalicular network in human bones. Multimodality therapy of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is currently considered the standard of care. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of perioperative therapy on surgical resection in mCRC. The National Cancer Database was analyzed for affected patients between 2004 and 2013. Univariate and multivariate analyses were done to identify factors associated with patient outcomes. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards models were used for the association between patient characteristics and survival. About 61,940 patients with mCRC were identified. Mean age = 63.4 years (SD ± 14). About 69% had a colon primary and 32% had only one metastatic site. check details Only 49% of those who underwent surgery for both primary and metastatic sites received postoperative chemotherapy (p < .001). Negative prognostic factors included no chemotherapy received (hazard ratio [HR], 2.32; 2.27-2.37; p < .001), more than three metastatic sites (HR, 2.28; 2.09-2.48; p < .001), year of diagnosis between 2004 and 2008 (HR, 1.71; 1.15-1.20; p < .001) and colon tumor location with right worse than left-sided (HR, 1.21; 1.19-1.24; p < .001). Five-yearoverall survival for resection of the primary and metastatic site (28.2%) was higher than for no surgical treatment (4.7%). Perioperative therapy was associated with improved survival, following resection of metastatic sites or primary tumor.Perioperative therapy was associated with improved survival, following resection of metastatic sites or primary tumor.Recently developed tau imaging radiopharmaceuticals show specific uptake in tau protein-rich regions in human brains without off-target binding. These radiopharmaceuticals and their nonradioactive reference ligands are generally obtained in low (radio)chemical yields. In the present study, we investigated high-yield synthesis of 18 F-RO948 ([18 F]1) and its nonradioactive ligand (1). The ligand 1 was synthesized by a Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction between 9-(4-methoxybenzyl)-9H-pyrrolo[2,3-b4,5-c']dipyridin-2-yl trifluoromethanesulfonate (3) and 2-fluoro-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)pyridine (4), followed by oxidative removal of the para-methoxybenzyl (PMB) group with ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN). This two-step reaction gave 1 in 55.8% yield. The precursor for [18 F]1 was synthesized from 3 and 2-nitro-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)pyridine (6). The resulting PMB-protected precursor 8 was obtained in 74.5% yield. [18 F]1 was synthesized by radiofluorination of 8 (radiochemical conversion (RCC) 95.7 ± 1.7%), followed by deprotection of the PMB group with CAN. This one-pot, two-step radiochemical synthesis followed by HPLC purification gave [18 F]1 in high decay-corrected radiochemical yield (54-60%). The RCC of [18 F]fluoride to [18 F]1 in our two-step synthesis method was similar to that in a one-step radiofluorination reaction of a tert-butoxycarbonyl (BOC)-protected precursor 10 that proceeds with concomitant thermal deprotection of the BOC group. Taken together, the results of this study suggest that this high-yield synthesis method is useful for the synthesis of 18 F-labeled (NH)heteroarene compounds.
