Previous genetic association studies have failed to identify loci robustly associated with sepsis, and there have been no published genetic association studies or polygenic risk score analyses of patients with septic shock, despite evidence suggesting genetic factors may be involved. We systematically collected genotype and clinical outcome data in the context of a randomized controlled trial from patients with septic shock to enrich the presence of disease-associated genetic variants. We performed genomewide association studies of susceptibility and mortality in septic shock using 493 patients with septic shock and 2442 population controls, and polygenic risk score analysis to assess genetic overlap between septic shock risk/mortality with clinically relevant traits. One variant, rs9489328, located in AL589740.1 noncoding RNA, was significantly associated with septic shock (p = 1.05 × 10–10); however, it is likely a false-positive. We were unable to replicate variants previously reported to be associated (p < 1.00 × 10–6 in previous scans) with susceptibility to and mortality from sepsis. Polygenic risk scores for hematocrit and granulocyte count were negatively associated with 28-day mortality (p = 3.04 × 10–3; p = 2.29 × 10–3), and scores for C-reactive protein levels were positively associated with susceptibility to septic shock (p = 1.44 × 10–3). Results suggest that common variants of large effect do not influence septic shock susceptibility, mortality and resolution; however, genetic predispositions to clinically relevant traits are significantly associated with increased susceptibility and mortality in septic individuals.

The commissioning and operation of apparatus for neutron diffraction at simultaneous high temperatures and pressures is reported. The basic design is based on the Paris-Edinburgh cell using opposed anvils, with internal heating. Temperature is measured using neutron radiography. The apparatus has been shown in both on-line and off-line tests to operate to a pressure of 7 GPa and temperature of 1700°C. The apparatus has been used in a neutron diffraction study of the crystal structure of deuterated brucite, and results for 520°C and 5.15 GPa are presented. The diffraction data that can be obtained from the apparatus are of comparable quality to previous high-pressure studies at ambient temperatures, and are clearly good enough for Rietveld refinement analysis to give structural data of reasonable quality.

Field research was conducted in Tennessee at two locations over 3 yr under no-tillage conditions to examine the interaction of broadleaf signalgrass and corn yield. Broadleaf signalgrass was killed at various time intervals during the growing season by applying postemergent glyphosate. Corn injury was avoided by the use of a glyphosate-tolerant variety. Yield reductions because of broadleaf signalgrass interference occurred with weed densities > 150 plants m−2 and when the corn and weeds emerged simultaneously. Corn had the ability to withstand broadleaf signalgrass presence up to 28 d after planting with no yield loss at all locations.

Herbicide treatments (4:1 ratio of 2,4-D amine:picloram) at 0.7 and 1.4 kg ae/ha at early postemergence (10- to 15-cm horsenettle height), midpostemergence (early flower), and late postemergence (fruit initiation) applied both early and late in the growing season provided >80% horsenettle control. Horsenettle density at season's end in all treated plots was less than 0.25 stems/m2, whereas untreated plots contained about 5 stems/m2. Horsenettle control the next spring was between 47 and 66% for all rates and application timings, and horsenettle density in treated plots was less than 3 stems/m2 as opposed to about 6 stems/m2 in the untreated plots. Clover drilled into the treated area the year after herbicide application was injured, indicating clover establishment the season after application of this package mixture would be difficult.

Most tall fescue in the United States is infected with a fungal endophyte which imparts certain advantages to the plant, such as drought tolerance, insect feeding deterrence, and enhanced mineral uptake. However, the endophyte also produces ergot alkaloids that are harmful to livestock and contribute to fescue toxicosis. Because the alkaloids are concentrated in seed and stems, a potential way to reduce the likelihood of fescue toxicosis is by suppressing seedhead formation with herbicides. Research was conducted from 2012 to 2014 using metsulfuron applied alone and in combination with other herbicides in spring to determine the growth response of tall fescue, effects on forage quality, and ergot alkaloid concentration. Clipping or metsulfuron applied alone or in combination with aminocyclopyrachlor or aminopyralid reduced seedhead density by 36 to 55% compared to the nontreated control. Treatments containing metsulfuron reduced spring harvest yield 35 to 61%, but no differences were observed in the summer or year-after harvests. The same treatments increased crude protein levels by 1.03 to 2.14% and reduced acid detergent fiber levels by 1.60 to 2.76% compared to the nontreated control at spring harvest. Treatments containing metsulfuron reduced ergot alkaloid concentration 26 to 34% at the spring harvest, but no differences were observed in summer-harvested forage. Results from this study indicate metsulfuron applied alone or in combination with aminocyclopyrachlor or aminopyralid can potentially reduce the severity of fescue toxicosis and improve forage quality.

This paper briefly describes the principle of operation and science goals of the AMANDA high energy neutrino telescope located at the South Pole, Antarctica. Results from an earlier phase of the telescope, called AMANDA-BIO, demonstrate both reliable operation and the broad astrophysical reach of this device, which includes searches for a variety of sources of ultrahigh energy neutrinos: generic point sources, Gamma-Ray Bursts and diffuse sources. The predicted sensitivity and angular resolution of the telescope were confirmed by studies of atmospheric muon and neutrino backgrounds. We also report on the status of the analysis from AMANDA-II, a larger version with far greater capabilities. At this stage of analysis, details of the ice properties and other systematic uncertainties of the AMANDA-II telescope are under study, but we have made progress toward critical science objectives. In particular, we present the first preliminary flux limits from AMANDA-II on the search for continuous emission from astrophysical point sources, and report on the search for correlated neutrino emission from Gamma Ray Bursts detected by BATSE before decommissioning in May 2000. During the next two years, we expect to exploit the full potential of AMANDA-II with the installation of a new data acquisition system that records full waveforms from the in-ice optical sensors.

We present a mathematical model which is used to interpret the dynamics of the immunological response of a mouse host to infection with the filarial worm Onchocerca lienalis. The model mimics changes in worm burden over time post-infection and after reinfection and its behaviour provides a good description of experimental results. Measured production of T-cells and eosinophils is also compared with the predictions of the model. Our results show that the immune response mechanism proposed on the basis of experimental results, involving CD4+ T-cells and eosinophil destruction of the parasite, is supported by the insights gained from the mathematical model. Also, using the parameters estimated to describe the primary infection dynamics, the degree of acquired immunity to secondary infection is also well described by the model. Our analysis highlights the importance of obtaining quantitative measures of the many rate parameters involved in even the simplest interpretations of immunological responses to parasitic infection.

We have studied the atomic states of arsenic (As) and phosphorus (P) in SiO2 using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Silicon dioxide implanted with As or P shows multiple XPS core level peaks corresponding to the impurity atoms located in two distinct atomic sites. The binding energies of the two arsenic 3d core levels occur at 45.8 and 42.3 eV and the two phosphorus 2p core levels occur at 134.7 and 130.3 eV. When the implanted oxides are annealed in an oxygen ambient between 900°C and 950°C, only the highbinding- energy peaks of P and As are observed. This identifies the highbinding- energy core level peaks as being associated with the impurity (P or As) on silicon sites. Annealing in nitrogen at 950° C results in an increase in the low-binding-energy signal. The low-binding-energy peaks are associated with the impurity (P or As) bonded to silicon neighbors. The relative amounts of dopants in silicon and oxygen sites depend on ambient purity and processing details. Reference to previous work shows that the presence of As or P on silicon sites in SiO2 corresponds to a fast diffusing state whereas As or P on oxygen sites corresponds to a slow diffusing state [1].

Silicide formation by reaction of palladium metal (Pd0) with hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) substrates was studied with Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), forward recoil spectrometry, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Upon low-temperature (200° C) annealing, RBS and TEM show a single-phase Pd2Si. This phase grows with the square root of time, and the activation energy is identical to that of the corresponding metal on single-crystal silicon substrates. The growth is slightly faster for hydrogenated amorphous silicon, which is attributed to its amorphous structure. During silicide formation, the hydrogen is released from silicides and presumably outdiffuses into a vacuum without interfacial accumulation. Thus, barrier formation does not occur, and the presence of hydrogen in the substrates has no effect on silicide growth.
The silicide electronic structure (core level binding energies, lineshapes, and d-band filling) of Pd2 Si on a-Si:H is identical to that of Pd2 Si formed on cr stalline silicon. Binding energy and peak shape analysis show the Pd2Si/Pd0 interface to be composed of one additional phase, Pd4Si, which has a well-defined binding energy (335.8 eV) and a narrow (FWHM = 1.1 eV), symmetric line shape. It has long been postulated that interface phases may be important in determining the phase sequence in silicide growth and the dominant diffusing species. This Pd4 Si interface phase may be important in understanding palladium silicide growth.

During the last seven years, there has been a concerted effort in eastern Australia to obtain 14C ages from detrital shell samples of prograded sand barriers composed of beach ridges and chenier deposits (Cook and Polach, 1973; Cook and Mayo, 1977; Thom, Polach, and Bowman, 1978; Thom et al, 1981). These ages were used to establish the age sequence of deposition and rates of progradation. This date list is the result of work in two areas of the Gulf of Carpentaria, Queensland, Australia, where 57 shell samples were collected for 14C dating. For details of this research, see Rhodes et al (1980).

Shells in beach-ridge and chenier Holocene deposits from the Gulf of Carpentaria, Queensland, have been dated by radiocarbon. Possible contamination of carbonate by post-depositional diagenetic processes, isotopic fractionation, ocean reservoir environmental effect, and association of biological age of sample material with depositional event have been examined in order to validate dating of samples from this environment. A numerical methodology used for comparing ‘groups’ of 14C dates strongly supports morphostratigraphic evidence that time discontinuities occur within both chenier and beach-ridge sequences. Four episodes are recognized in each area, all younger than ca 5800 years ago, the time when sea level reached its postglacial maximum in the Gulf of Carpentaria. To some extent, these episodes are out of phase, reflecting different modes of strandline accumulation.
