Infants and children born with CHD are at significant risk for neurodevelopmental delays and abnormalities. Individualised developmental care is widely recognised as best practice to support early neurodevelopment for medically fragile infants born premature or requiring surgical intervention after birth. However, wide variability in clinical practice is consistently demonstrated in units caring for infants with CHD. The Cardiac Newborn Neuroprotective Network, a Special Interest Group of the Cardiac Neurodevelopmental Outcome Collaborative, formed a working group of experts to create an evidence-based developmental care pathway to guide clinical practice in hospital settings caring for infants with CHD. The clinical pathway, “Developmental Care Pathway for Hospitalized Infants with Congenital Heart Disease,” includes recommendations for standardised developmental assessment, parent mental health screening, and the implementation of a daily developmental care bundle, which incorporates individualised assessments and interventions tailored to meet the needs of this unique infant population and their families. Hospitals caring for infants with CHD are encouraged to adopt this developmental care pathway and track metrics and outcomes using a quality improvement framework.

Patients with single-ventricle CHD undergo a series of palliative surgeries that culminate in the Fontan procedure. While the Fontan procedure allows most patients to survive to adulthood, the Fontan circulation can eventually lead to multiple cardiac complications and multi-organ dysfunction. Care for adolescents and adults with a Fontan circulation has begun to transition from a primarily cardiac-focused model to care models, which are designed to monitor multiple organ systems, and using clues from this screening, identify patients who are at risk for adverse outcomes. The complexity of care required for these patients led our centre to develop a multidisciplinary Fontan Management Programme with the primary goals of earlier detection and treatment of complications through the development of a cohesive network of diverse medical subspecialists with Fontan expertise.

Summary
Two and a half decades ago, the discovery of Mercury’s polar deposits from Earth-based radar observations provided the first tantalizing, but limited, evidence for the possibility of water ice on the solar system’s innermost planet. Identifying the materials in Mercury’s polar deposits was one of the six major science questions that originally motivated the MESSENGER mission. In the course of the mission’s more than four Earth years of operations in orbit about Mercury, MESSENGER produced multiple datasets to investigate Mercury’s polar deposits: determinations of regions of permanent shadow, neutron spectrometer observations, laser altimeter reflectance measurements, thermal model results, and direct images of the deposits. These datasets provided compelling evidence that in addition to substantial amounts of water ice stored in Mercury’s polar deposits, there are also other volatile materials, postulated to be dark, organic-rich compounds that bury the water ice deposits. This chapter reviews MESSENGER’s investigations of Mercury’s polar deposits and discusses the resulting implications for the origin and evolution of Mercury’s polar water ice.

Our recent discovery of hazardous concentrations of arsenic in shallow sedimentary aquifers in Cambodia raises the spectre of future deleterious health impacts on a population that, particularly in non-urban areas, extensively use untreated groundwater as a source of drinking water and, in some instances, as irrigation water. We present here small-scale hazard maps for arsenic in shallow Cambodian groundwaters based on >1000 groundwater samples analysed in the Manchester Analytical Geochemistry Unit and elsewhere. Key indicators for hazardous concentrations of arsenic in Cambodian groundwaters include: (1) well depths greater than 16 m; (2) Holocene host sediments; and (3) proximity to major modern channels of the Mekong (and its distributary the Bassac). However, high-arsenic well waters are also commonly found in wells not exhibiting these key characteristics, notably in some shallower Holocene wells, and in wells drilled into older Quaternary and Neogene sediments.
It is emphasized that the maps and tables presented are most useful for identifying current regional trends in groundwater arsenic hazard and that their use for predicting arsenic concentrations in individual wells, for example for the purposes of well switching, is not recommended, particularly because of the lack of sufficient data (especially at depths >80 m) and because, as in Bangladesh and West Bengal, there is considerable heterogeneity of groundwater arsenic concentrations on a scale of metres to hundreds of metres. We have insufficient data at this time to determine unequivocally whether or not arsenic concentrations are increasing in shallow Cambodian groundwaters as a result of groundwater-abstraction activities.

Diabetic polyneuropathy is a complex disease of progressive nerve fiber loss. Initial screening and diagnosis in clinical practice usually depend on assessment of subjective complaints. A need exists for objective, simple, and reproducible assessment tools that can be readily used in clinical practice. The importance of early diagnosis is highlighted by the recent North American Diabetes Control and Complications Trial where intensive insulin therapy reduced the risk of developing diabetic neuropathy by 61%. At the University of Michigan, we have developed an outpatient neuropathy program. Patients are given a questionnaire and a brief screening examination, designated the Neuropathy Screening Instrument. Diabetic neuropathy is confirmed and staged in patients with a positive Neuropathy Screening Instrument, by a quantitative neurologic examination and nerve conduction studies, designated the Diabetic Neuropathy Score. The Michigan program has been compared with well-established instruments and has been found to be sensitive and reproducible for screening and diagnosis. We believe the program provides a valuable tool for the clinician in the practice setting and should allow diagnosis and intervention earlier in the course of diabetic neuropathy.

The bulk of the public opinion research on immigration identifies the factors leading to opposition to immigration. In contrast, we focus on a previously unexplored factor yielding support for immigration: humanitarianism. Relying upon secondary analysis of national public opinion survey data and an original survey experiment, we demonstrate that humanitarian concern significantly decreases support for restrictive immigration policy. Results from our survey experiment demonstrate that in an information environment evoking both threat and countervailing humanitarian concern regarding immigration, the latter can and does override the former. Last, our results point to the importance of individual differences in empathy in moderating the effects of both threat and humanitarian inducements.

Here we study the effect of radiation-induced point defect distributions on the optical reflectivity signal in GaAs using coherent acoustic phonon spectroscopy. We demonstrate that the presence of point defects significantly modifies the optical response, allowing estimation of the depth-dependent defect distribution in a nondestructive and noninvasive manner. We show that the observed changes are dependent on defect-induced changes to the electronic structure, namely defect-induced band tailing of the direct 1.43eV band edge. This provides a method for subsurface investigations on the complex interaction between different defects species and optoelectronic structure.

Recent studies have suggested that expanded CAG/CTG repeats contribute to the genetic aetiology of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. However, the nature of this contribution is uncertain and difficult to predict from other known trinucleotide repeat diseases that display much simpler patterns of inheritance. We have sought to replicate and extend earlier findings using Repeat Expansion Detection in an enlarged sample of 152 patients with schizophrenia, 143 patients with bipolar disorder, and 160 controls. We have also examined DNA from the parents of 62 probands with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Our results confirm our earlier, preliminary findings of an association between expanded trinucleotide repeats and both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. However, our data do not support the hypothesis that trinucleotide repeat expansion can alone explain the complex patterns of inheritance of the functional psychoses neither can this mechanism fully explain apparent anticipation.

Three main aspects of chicken biodiversity are dealt within this report: (a) cluster analysis based on autosomal microsatellites, (b) microsatellites on the sex chromosomes, and (c) SNP-based biodiversity.
(a) Cluster analysis of autosomal microsatellites: We used 29 microsatellites to genotype 2000 chickens randomly selected from 65 different populations representing various chicken types and various geographical regions. The computer program Structure placed the 65 populations into clusters that are in agreement with their geographic origin and breed history. Only at two predefined clusters, there is little admixture between non-commercial populations originating from Asia and those from Europe. In contrast, commercial broilers and brown egg layers appeared as admixed populations of these two main gene pools. Increasing the number of clusters resulted in generation of specific clusters of commercial lines, having very low admixture with other clusters. In addition, we identified seven mixed populations, each of which shared portions of their genome with several other genetic clusters.
(b) Microsatellites on the sex chromosomes: We predicted 173 potential microsatellites on chromosome W by in-silico analysis of the chicken genome assembly (version WASHUC1). Twenty five microsatellites of the highest sequence quality were tested in the lab for gender specificity. Unexpectedly, PCR products were generated in both sexes. Moreover, 14 selected microsatellites were mapped (using the East Lansing reference panel) and in all cases, the “W specific” microsatellites were mapped to chromosome Z and except for one locus, to the same ∼6 cM region. We conclude that the draft assembly for chromosome W is quite inaccurate.
(c) SNP-based biodiversity: Ten distinct chicken breeds were genotyped at 145 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located at 14 random DNA fragments and twenty five, each from different and unlinked genes. Microsatellite genotypes of the same ten breeds were used for comparison. Applying bootstrap values as the criterion for tree's reliability, we found that: (1) increasing the number of SNPs had a higher impact on the reliability of the analysis than increasing the number of individuals per population, and (2) the bootstrap values of phylogenetic un-rooted trees based on microsatellites were relatively low.

Introduction:
Emergency medical services (EMS) responses to mass gatherings have been described frequently, but there are few reports describing the response to a single-day gathering of large magnitude.
Objective:This report describes the EMS response to the largest single-day, ticketed concert held in North America: the 2003 “Toronto Rocks!” Rolling Stones Concert.
Methods:Medical care was provided by paramedics, physicians, and nurses. Care sites included ambulances, medically equipped, all-terrain vehicles, bicycle paramedic units, first-aid tents, and a 124-bed medical facility that included a field hospital and a rehydration unit. Records from the first-aid tents, ambulances, paramedic teams, and rehydration unit were obtained. Data abstracted included patient demographics, chief complaint, time of incident, treatment, and disposition.
Results:More than 450,000 people attended the concert and 1,870 sought medical care (42/10,000 attendees). No record was kept for the 665 attendees simply requesting water, sunscreen, or bandages. Of the remaining 1,205 patients, the average of the ages was 28 ±11 years, and 61% were female. Seven-hundred, ninety-five patients (66%) were cared for at one of the first-aid tents. Physicians at the tents assisted in patient management and disposition when crowds restricted ambulance movement. Common complaints included headache (321 patients; 27%), heat-related complaints (148; 12%), nausea or vomiting (91; 7.6%), musculoskeletal complaints (83; 6.9%), and breathing problems (79; 6.6%). Peak activity occurred between 14:00 and 19:00 hours, when 102 patients per hour sought medical attention. Twenty-four patients (0.5/10,000) were transferred to off-site hospitals.
Conclusions:This report on the EMS response, outcomes, and role of the physicians at a large single-day mass gathering may assist EMS planners at future events.

Background
Few controlled studies have examined the use of atypical antipsychotic drugs for prevention of relapse in patients with bipolar I disorder.
AimsTo evaluate whether olanzapine plus either lithium or valproate reduces the rate of relapse, compared with lithium or valproate alone.
MethodPatients achieving syndromic remission after 6 weeks'treatment with olanzapine plus either lithium (0.6–1.2 mmol/l) or valproate (50–125 μg/ml) received lithium or valproate plus either olanzapine 5–20 mg/day (combination therapy) or placebo (monotherapy), and were followed in a double-masked trial for 18 months.
ResultsThe treatment difference in time to relapse into either mania or depression was not significant for syndromic relapse (median time to relapse: combination therapy 94 days, monotherapy40.5 days; P=0.742), but was significant for symptomatic relapse (combination therapy 163 days, monotherapy42 days; P=0.023).
ConclusionsPatients taking olanzapine added to lithium or valproate experienced sustained symptomatic remission, but not syndromic remission, for longer than those receiving lithium or valproate monotherapy.

Long-range ordered arrays of vanadium dioxide nanoparticles are fabricated by pulsed laser deposition in a patterned layer of poly(methyl methacrylate) resist. The two- dimensional arbitrary pattern is created by focused ion beam exposure of the resist, followed by pulsed laser deposition and thermal annealing. Interaction of light with the nanoparticles is controlled by their geometrical arrangement as well as by the difference in optical properties displayed between the metallic and semiconducting phases of VO2. Arrays like this open opportunities to study optical resonances and interactions for nanoparticles in close proximity, in the framework of the metal-semiconductor phase transition in VO2.

Objective: Severe to profound hearing impairment affects one-half to three-quarters of a million Americans. To function in a hearing society, hearing-impaired persons require specialized educational, social services, and other resources. The primary purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive, national, and recent estimate of the economic burden of hearing impairment.
Methods: We constructed a cohort-survival model to estimate the lifetime costs of hearing impairment. Data for the model were derived principally from the analyses of secondary data sources, including the National Health Interview Survey Hearing Loss and Disability Supplements (1990–91 and 1994–95), the Department of Education's National Longitudinal Transition Study (1987), and Gallaudet University's Annual Survey of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Youth (1997–98). These analyses were supplemented by a review of the literature and consultation with a four-member expert panel. Monte Carlo analysis was used for sensitivity testing.
Results: Severe to profound hearing loss is expected to cost society $297,000 over the lifetime of an individual. Most of these losses (67%) are due to reduced work productivity, although the use of special education resources among children contributes an additional 21%. Life time costs for those with prelingual onset exceed $1 million.
Conclusions: Results indicate that an additional $4.6 billion will be spent over the lifetime of persons who acquired their impairment in 1998. The particularly high costs associated with prelingual onset of severe to profound hearing impairment suggest interventions aimed at children, such as early identification and/or aggressive medical intervention, may have a substantial payback.

Background. Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) has been associated with increased prolactin (PRL) responses to the serotonin (5-HT) releasing agent fenfluramine. It is not known whether this abnormality is due to increased 5-HT release or heightened sensitivity of post-synaptic 5-HT receptors.
Methods. We measured the increase in plasma PRL produced by the directly acting 5-HT receptor agonist, m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP), in patients with CFS and healthy controls. We also compared the ability of mCPP to lower slow wave sleep (SWS) in the sleep polysomnogram of both subject groups. Finally, we measured plasma amino-acid levels to determine whether tryptophan availability differed between CFS subjects and controls.
Results. mCPP elevated plasma PRL equivalently in patients with CFS and controls. Similarly, the decrease in SWS produced by mCPP did not differ between the two subject groups. Plasma-free tryptophan was significantly decreased in CFS.
Conclusions. The sensitivity of post-synaptic 5-HT2c receptors is not increased in patients with CFS. This suggests that the increased PRL response to fenfluramine in CFS is due to elevated activity of pre-synaptic 5-HT neurones. This change is unlikely to be due to increased peripheral availability of tryptophan.
