Objective
To assess the association of diet-related practices and BMI with diet quality in rural adults aged ≥74 years.
DesignCross-sectional. Dietary quality was assessed by the twenty-five-item Dietary Screening Tool (DST). Diet-related practices were self-reported. Multivariate linear regression models were used to analyse associations of DST scores with BMI and diet-related practices after controlling for gender, age, education, smoking and self- v. proxy reporting.
SettingGeisinger Rural Aging Study (GRAS) in Pennsylvania, USA.
SubjectsA total of 4009 (1722 males, 2287 females; mean age 81·5 years) participants aged ≥74 years.
ResultsIndividuals with BMI < 18·5 kg/m2 had a significantly lower DST score (mean 55·8, 95 % CI 52·9, 58·7) than those individuals with BMI = 18·5–24·9 kg/m2 (mean 60·7, 95 % CI 60·1, 61·5; P = 0·001). Older adults with higher, more favourable DST scores were significantly more likely to be food sufficient, report eating breakfast, have no chewing difficulties and report no decline in intake in the previous 6 months.
ConclusionsThe DST may identify potential targets for improving diet quality in older adults including promotion of healthy BMI, breakfast consumption, improving dentition and identifying strategies to decrease concern about food sufficiency.

Walnuts contain a number of potentially neuroprotective compounds like vitamin E, folate, melatonin, several antioxidative polyphenols and significant amounts of n-3 α-linolenic fatty acid. The present study sought to determine the effect of walnuts on verbal and non-verbal reasoning, memory and mood. A total of sixty-four college students were randomly assigned to two treatment sequences in a crossover fashion: walnuts–placebo or placebo–walnuts. Baseline data were collected for non-verbal reasoning, verbal reasoning, memory and mood states. Data were collected again after 8 weeks of intervention. After 6 weeks of washout, the intervention groups followed the diets in reverse order. Data were collected once more at the end of the 8-week intervention period. No significant increases were detected for mood, non-verbal reasoning or memory on the walnut-supplemented diet. However, inferential verbal reasoning increased significantly by 11·2 %, indicating a medium effect size (P = 0·009; d = 0·567). In young, healthy, normal adults, walnuts do not appear to improve memory, mood or non-verbal reasoning abilities. However, walnuts may have the ability to increase inferential reasoning.

A nanoscale thermal anemometry probe (NSTAP) has been developed to measure velocity fluctuations at ultra-small scales. The sensing element is a free-standing platinum nanoscale wire, 100 nm × 2 μm × 60 μm, suspended between two current-carrying contacts and the sensor is an order of magnitude smaller than presently available commercial hot wires. The probe is constructed using standard semiconductor and MEMS manufacturing methods, which enables many probes to be manufactured simultaneously. Measurements were performed in grid-generated turbulence and compared to conventional hot-wire probes with a range of sensor lengths. The results demonstrate that the NSTAP behaves similarly to conventional hot-wire probes but with better spatial resolution and faster temporal response. The results are used to investigate spatial filtering effects, including the impact of spatial filtering on the probability density of velocity and velocity increment statistics.

Sol-gel materials of TiO2 and vanadium-modified TiO2 of nominal composition 4, 8, and 16 wt.% vanadium were prepared by evaporation of aqueous colloidal sols obtained by the hydrolysis of aqueous solutions of titanium(IV) chloride with the appropriate amount of vanadyl oxalate using aqueous ammonia followed by peptization of the resulting hydrated solids using nitric acid. The nature of the sol-gel materials and their behavior on calcinations at temperatures up to 1273 K were investigated using x-ray fluorescence, powder x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and electron diffraction and FT-Raman spectroscopy. At 333 K, all the gels comprised small (about 5 ± 1 nm) particles of anatase together with traces of brookite. The particle size changed little on thermal treatment at 573 K, but increased significantly at higher temperatures and was accompanied by transformation to rutile. Incorporation of vanadium in the gels reduced the temperature at which rutile began to appear from 923 K in pure TiO2 to 773 K in the V/TiO2 gels. Only rutile was present at high temperatures, except for the 16 V/TiO2 gel, when small amounts of phase-separated vanadia were also observed. A 2–3% substitutional incorporation of V4+ ions in the tetragonal rutile lattice occurred at high temperatures, but the majority of the vanadium was present in an amorphous, highly dispersed fashion.

Nucleotide gene sequences for both the nuclear-encoded small-subunit RNA (SSU) and plastid-encoded large subunit of RuBisCO (rbcL) were determined for 16 species classified in the red algal order Gelidiales. Sequence comparisons indicate that rbcL is evolving at a faster rate than SSU in these species and that there is a more even distribution of changes across the length of the rbcL gene compared with that observed for the SSU gene. The rbcL sequences also showed a marked anti-GC bias at synonymous third-codon base positions. Parsimony and maximum-likelihood analyses were used to generate phylogenetic trees from both separate and combined analyses of the two sequence data sets. Relationships among most taxa are resolved robustly; however, the relative order of branching for the Capreolia and Ptilophora clades remains uncertain. The molecular data provide unambiguous, independent support for recognition of the newly established genus Pterocladiella. Although the position of Pterocladiella within the Gelidiales was not resolved clearly by the rbcL data alone, analyses of both the SSU and combined data matrices indicate that this genus is one of the three earliest-diverging lineages within the order. These data also suggest that Gelidium as currently circumscribed is not monophyletic. Molecular and morphological evidence suggests that the origin and, perhaps, diversification of the major lineages of gelidialean algae is correlated with distinct, independently evolved nutritional strategies for the developing carposporophyte.
