AlMahamid, J. Floyd, W. Lukens, and D. Shuh The existing evaluations of the 243 Am neutron-induced fission cross section have been questioned by recent measurements performed at the GNEISS facility. In the neutron energy range from 1 to 6 MeV, the GNEISS data present deviations of more than 15 % with respect to the evaluations. In order to solv... [Phys. Rev.

    Description: It is estimated that pneumonia is responsible for 15% of childhood deaths worldwide. Recent research has shown that hypoxia and malnutrition are strong predictors of mortality in children hospitalized for pneumonia. It is estimated that 15% of children under 5 who are hospitalized for pneumonia have hypoxaemia and that around 1.5 million children with severe pneumonia require oxygen treatment each year. We developed a deterministic compartmental model that links the care pathway to disease progression to assess the impact of introducing pulse oximetry as a prognostic tool to distinguish severe from non-severe pneumonia in under-5 year olds across 15 countries with the highest burden worldwide. We estimate that, assuming access to supplemental oxygen, pulse oximetry has the potential to avert up to 148,000 deaths if implemented across the 15 countries. By contrast, integrated management of childhood illness alone has a relatively small impact on mortality owing to its low sensitivity. Pulse oximetry can significantly increase the incidence of correctly treated severe cases as well as reduce the incidence of incorrect treatment with antibiotics. We also found that the combination of pulse oximetry with integrated management of childhood illness is highly cost-effective, with median estimates ranging from US$2.97 to $52.92 per disability-adjusted life year averted in the 15 countries analysed. This combination of substantial burden reduction and favourable cost-effectiveness makes pulse oximetry a promising candidate for improving the prognosis for children with pneumonia in resource-poor settings.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Floyd, Jessica -- Wu, Lindsey -- Hay Burgess, Deborah -- Izadnegahdar, Rasa -- Mukanga, David -- Ghani, Azra C -- Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2015 Dec 3;528(7580):S53-9. doi: 10.1038/nature16043.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉MRC Centre for Outbreak Analysis and Modelling, Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Norfolk Place, London W2 1PG, UK. ; Department of Immunology and Infection, Faculty of Infectious and Tropical Diseases, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Keppel Street, London WC1E 7HT, UK. ; The Bill &Melinda Gates Foundation, 500 Fifth Avenue North, Seattle, Washington 98109, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26633766" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The contribution of rare and low-frequency variants to human traits is largely unexplored. Here we describe insights from sequencing whole genomes (low read depth, 7x) or exomes (high read depth, 80x) of nearly 10,000 individuals from population-based and disease collections. In extensively phenotyped cohorts we characterize over 24 million novel sequence variants, generate a highly accurate imputation reference panel and identify novel alleles associated with levels of triglycerides (APOB), adiponectin (ADIPOQ) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLR and RGAG1) from single-marker and rare variant aggregation tests. We describe population structure and functional annotation of rare and low-frequency variants, use the data to estimate the benefits of sequencing for association studies, and summarize lessons from disease-specific collections. Finally, we make available an extensive resource, including individual-level genetic and phenotypic data and web-based tools to facilitate the exploration of association results.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4773891/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4773891/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉UK10K Consortium -- Walter, Klaudia -- Min, Josine L -- Huang, Jie -- Crooks, Lucy -- Memari, Yasin -- McCarthy, Shane -- Perry, John R B -- Xu, ChangJiang -- Futema, Marta -- Lawson, Daniel -- Iotchkova, Valentina -- Schiffels, Stephan -- Hendricks, Audrey E -- Danecek, Petr -- Li, Rui -- Floyd, James -- Wain, Louise V -- Barroso, Ines -- Humphries, Steve E -- Hurles, Matthew E -- Zeggini, Eleftheria -- Barrett, Jeffrey C -- Plagnol, Vincent -- Richards, J Brent -- Greenwood, Celia M T -- Timpson, Nicholas J -- Durbin, Richard -- Soranzo, Nicole -- 091551/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095515/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 095564/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 098498/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 100140/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 104036/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- CZD/16/6/4/Chief Scientist Office/United Kingdom -- MC_UU_12013/3/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- RG/10/13/28570/British Heart Foundation/United Kingdom -- WT091310/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2015 Oct 1;526(7571):82-90. doi: 10.1038/nature14962.

    Notes: We estimated the number of transportation deaths that would be associated with water treatment in Albuquerque to meet the EPA's recently proposed revisions of the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for arsenic. Vehicle mileage was estimated for ion exchange, activated alumina, and iron coagulation/microfiltration water treatment processes to meet an MCL of 0.020 mg/L, 0.010 mg/L, 0.005 mg/L, and 0.003 mg/L. Local crash, injury, and death rates per million vehicle miles were used to estimate the number of injuries and deaths. Depending on the water treatment options chosen, we estimate that meeting an arsenic MCL of 0.005 mg/L will result in 143 to 237 crashes, 58 to 98 injuries, and 0.6 to 2.6 deaths in Albuquerque over a 70-year period, resulting in 26 to 113 years of life lost. The anticipated health benefits for Albuquerque residents from a 0.005 mg/L arsenic MCL, estimated using either a multistage Weibull or Poisson model, ranged from 3 to 80 arsenic-related bladder and lung cancer deaths prevented over a 70-year period, adding between 43 and 1,123 years of life. Whether a revised arsenic MCL increases or reduces overall loss of life in Albuquerque depends on the accuracy of EPA's cancer risk assessment. If the multistage Weibull model accurately estimates the benefits, the years of life added is comparable or lower than the anticipated years lost due to transportation associated with the delivery of chemicals, disposal of treatment waste, and operation of the water treatment system. Coagulation/microfiltration treatment will result in substantially fewer transportation deaths than either ion exchange or activated alumina.
