CMV (cucumber mosaic virus) is the most primitive virus infecting chilli (Capsicum annuum. L). The mosaic incidence with leaf filiformity, mosaic mottling and stunted growth was observed in major chilli growing regions of Tamil Nadu. CMV sap was inoculated on chilli, cowpea, bitter gourd, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, banana, cucumber, Nicotiana and Chenopodium plants. Tat-beclin 1 datasheet Host range studies revealed that CMV produced localized infection on Nicotiana and systemic symptoms on most of the test plants. The occurrence of CMV was confirmed through DAC-ELISA and RT-PCR analysis. Host plant samples tested with DAC-ELISA showed strong reaction with 1.7 optical density. For molecular characterization, total RNA isolated from infected plants used in RT-PCR with CMV specific primers. The specific amplicons were cloned and sequenced. The complete genome sequencing depicts CMV-RNA1 consist of 3339 nucleotides (nt), RNA2 and RNA3 with 3052nt and 2027nt respectively. Phylogenetic and nucleotide sequence analysis showed TN CMV isolates closely associated with subgroup IB rather than subgroup IA and II. Comparative sequence analysis indicates replicase protein to be more variable among five genes. CP sequence analysis showed 97-98 per cent identity with subgroup IB strains, 92-93 per cent identity with subgroup IA strains and 81-82 per cent identity with subgroup II strains. CMV-RNA3 was predicted to have recombination with Indian black pepper isolate (KU947031) between 165-505nt and Egyptian tomato isolate (KX014666) between 165-506nt positions.Changes in terrestrial water content cause elastic deformation of the Earth's crust. This deformation is thought to play a role in modulating crustal stress and seismicity in regions where large water storage fluctuations occur. Groundwater is an important component of total water storage change in California, helping to drive annual water storage fluctuations and loss during periods of drought. Here we use direct estimates of groundwater volume loss during the 2007-2010 drought in California's Central Valley obtained from high resolution Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar-based vertical land motion data to investigate the effect of groundwater volume change on the evolution of the stress field. We show that GPS-derived elastic load models may not capture the contribution of groundwater to terrestrial water loading, resulting in an underestimation of nontectonic crustal stress change. We find that groundwater unloading during the drought causes Coulomb stress change of up to 5.5 kPa and seasonal fluctuactonic stress and forces that modulate seismicity in California.Introduction Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the seventh leading cause of cancer worldwide. Approximately 35%-60% patients with HNC are malnourished from the disease onset, malnutrition being associated with worsened health outcomes among these patients. This study aimed to review and synthesize existing guidelines regarding nutritional interventions in HNC patients and assess providers' knowledge, opinions, and practice of guidelines for the nutritional management of HNC patients. Methods This is a multimethod study that includes a systematic review of guidelines for nutritional intervention in HNC patients and a providers' survey regarding their knowledge and opinions regarding nutrition therapy guidelines for HNC patients. Results Our review yielded seven guidelines. Of the seven guidelines reviewed, all were specific to cancer patients, however, only three were specific for HNC patients. Three of the guidelines recommended using a nutritional screening tool, however, only two mentioned a specific screening tool. Out of 193 surveys included in our analysis, the highest percentage of respondents were physicians (52.4%), followed by registered nurses (33.5%). The majority of respondent (77.5%) worked in a hospital-based practice, while 18.8% worked in clinic-based practice. A large proportion (46.6%) of respondents were not aware of nutritional guidelines for HNC patients; with 23.6% not aware of any, and 23.0% aware of their existence but not aware of their content. The majority (81.5%) of respondents said that a more detailed guideline should be available for HNC patient with regards to nutrition. Conclusion Nutritional deficiencies in HNC patients continue to cause significant complications in treatment and recovery. Existing practice guidelines are limited and lack specific recommendations. A universal standard of care with regard to addressing nutrition in HNC patients is needed to improve healthcare outcomes among NHC patients.Neurofibroma is an uncommon benign tumor arising from nerve sheath fibroblasts. The diagnosis of solitary lesions becomes difficult in patients who do not have any family history of neurofibroma. An intra-oral solitary neurofibroma comprises 6.5% of reported cases of neurofibroma. Few cases of intraosseous solitary neurofibroma have been published as per literature. Treatment-surgical resection of tumor has an excellent prognosis with extreme rare malignant transformation which is more commonly seen in neurofibromatosis. A periodic follow-up is necessary in solitary tumors to rule out syndromic cases. Leiomyoma is a benign tumor of smooth muscle origin, which is usually diagnosed in the gastrointestinal tract, uterus, and skin. The most effective treatment for solid, vascular, and epithelioid angioleiomyomas is surgical resection along with tumor capsule. Here we report an uncommon occurrence of multiple benign tumors in a pediatric patient.Background Pediatric ACGME (Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education) requirements include demonstrated competence in umbilical line placement. Given a waning number of these procedures clinically available to residents, new methods of procedural teaching must be employed. We developed a simulation-based strategy, using adult-learning principles, to teach umbilical venous catheter (UVC) placement to pediatric residents. We also determined whether procedural teaching via simulation increased confidence and competence among pediatric residents in performing the procedure. Methods Out of 23 first-year pediatric residents, eight participated in the study. Participants completed a survey evaluating their self-perceived competence and confidence in umbilical line placement. Their simulated umbilical line placement was assessed using a standardized checklist. Residents were then trained on simulated line placement in small groups by neonatologists. Six months later, residents completed a post-training survey and were assessed while placing simulated lines.
