The retention of riparian buffers, limited size of harvest units, and adherence to reforestation requirements have altered the contemporary forest landscape relative to historical forest practices, but data documenting multi-decadal hydrological responses to current harvest practices is limited. Our review suggests that the magnitude of low flow responses attenuates downstream as a broader mosaic of stand ages occurs and multiple hydrological periods are represented. Declines were not observed in the seven large catchments reviewed. The consequences of low flow declines for aquatic biota are not well understood, but where data do exist aquatic biota have not been adversely affected. this website We identify priorities for future research that will aid in improving predictions of low flow responses to harvest as forests regenerate.In the United States, utilization of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine has lagged far below public health goals for achieving satisfactory population-level protection against HPV associated cancers. Oral health professionals such as dentists and dental hygienists are important stakeholders in primary prevention of HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancer. We surveyed parents accompanying children to a local pediatric oral health clinic to ascertain their receptiveness to engaging their child's oral health team in their child's immunizations. Parents were generally receptive (86%) to discussing vaccines available for their children with both their child's dentist and dental hygienist. The majority of parents (79%) reported that they would allow their child's dentist to administer a vaccine to their child. Oral health providers are trusted healthcare professionals poised to make a positive impact on adolescent vaccination programs and they should be included in efforts to improve HPV vaccination rates.Background Fingolimod (Gilenya, Novartis, Basel Switzerland) 0.5 mg orally once-daily is widely used for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Patients are usually screened four months after starting fingolimod for fingolimod-associated macular oedema (FAME). Large registration trials with stringent eligibility criteria have reported a FAME incidence of 0 - 2.08%. Objectives To determine the real-world incidence of FAME in a London population, and to describe the clinical characteristics and management of confirmed cases. Methods All patients started on fingolimod from September 2012 to September 2018 were referred for ophthalmology clinical examination and macular spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) at four months after starting treatment. Exclusion criteria were failure to attend or non-gradable OCT images. Results Of 228 patients, two had FAME at initial screening, giving an incidence of 0.88% (95% confidence interval 0.10-3.10). Another case emerged subsequently, at 637 days, resulting in a final incidence of 1.32% (95% confidence interval 0.30-3.80). Fingolimod was discontinued in two cases. FAME resolved in all cases within two to 10 months, with no persistent visual loss or symptoms. Conclusions The real-world FAME incidence is consistent with fingolimod registration studies. FAME may have a delayed onset and may be better detected with newer OCT devices.Clinical studies investigating the relationship between fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and bone mass are controversial, especially in the healthy renal population. Our study is one of the forefronts investigating the relationship between FGF23 and bone mass parameters in the general population, according to age, sex, menopausal, and nutritional status. Cross-sectional study enrolling 123 volunteers between 20-80 years of age without primary osteoporosis under treatment nor secondary osteoporosis, where bone mass (bone mineral density-BMD, bone mineral content-BMC; assessed by Dual X-Ray Absorptiometry-DXA), body composition (DXA evaluation), and also the serum levels of FGF23, parathormone (PTH), 25(OH)D, bone resorption marker C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTx) and leptin were determined. FGF23 was negatively and independently associated with BMD and/or BMC in all groups. FGF23 contributed to up to 10% (p less then 0.05) of femoral neck BMD variance in postmenopausal women, but was not an accurate discriminator of normal versus low bone mass (AUC=0.622±0.076). FGF23 did not correlate with 25(OH)D, CTx, body weight, body composition parameters or leptin. FGF23 was independently associated with PTH in premenopausal women and men only. FGF23 was negatively associated with bone mass parameters in both sexes, but was not a fine discriminator between normal bone mass and osteopenia/osteoporosis. The mechanism through which FGF23 acts upon the bone seems independent of the nutritional status, requiring further investigation.Objective Treatment of renal artery aneurysms (RAA) remains controversial. Endovascular treatment has increased for main trunk and for very distal aneurysms, whereas for lesions located at the bifurcation surgical treatment seems to be a valid option. The goal of this study was to describe the technique of direct reconstruction of RAA and to report on outcomes. Methods This study comprised single centre prospective collection of data with retrospective analysis (January 2015 to August 2018) of patients operated on for distal RAA using direct reconstruction. Results A total of 24 RAA in 21 patients (seven men and 14 women, mean age 59 ± 13 years) was included. History of hypertension was found in 15 patients and renal insufficiency was present in one. Mean pre-operative systolic and diastolic blood pressures were 134 ± 21 mmHg and 74 ± 10 mmHg, and mean pre-operative rates of creatinine and glomerular filtration rate were 67 ± 13 μmol/L and 93 ± 49 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively. Indications for repair were a divascular treatment.Introduction Cognitive factors are conceptualized as playing a role in maintaining psychological disorders-including sexual dysfunction-by influencing the way in which individuals ascribe meaning, and ultimately respond, to sexual events. Objectives To systematically review and integrate the findings from studies on cognitive processing factors and sexual function and dysfunction in women and men. Methods A systematic search of major electronic databases was conducted from inception to July 2019 to identify peer-reviewed studies examining cognitive processing factors associated with sexual function and dysfunction. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed. Main outcome measure The main outcome measure was the association of cognitive processing variables with women's and men's sexual function and dysfunction. Results From 122 studies, 67 studies were deemed eligible for inclusion. Studies demonstrated a consistent association between cognitive processing factors and dimensions of sexual functioning in women and men.
