Abstract:

Abstract Results of 128 radon screening tests performed by homeowners living in Jackson County, Missouri, and Johnson County, Kansas, are compared to four geologic variables. Slightly higher radon levels are associated with gray shale bedrock and loess-derived soil, but no statistically-significant relationships are found between radon screening levels and bedrock types, soil parent or soil permeability. Previous emphasis on black shales as a principal source of radon precursors in the Kansas City area is unwarranted. The single significant relationship found in this study is that homes built

Abstract:

Stripe rust has reemerged as a problematic disease in Kansas wheat. However, there are no stripe rust forecasting models specific to Kansas wheat production. Our objective was to identify environmental variables associated with stripe rust epidemics in Kansas winter wheat as an initial step in the longer-term goal of developing predictive models for stripe rust to be used within the state. Mean yield loss due to stripe rust on susceptible varieties was estimated from 1999 to 2012 for each of the nine Kansas crop reporting districts (CRD). A CRD was classified as having experienced a stripe rus

Barley yellow dwarf (BYD) is one of the most important wheat diseases in the state of Kansas. Despite the development of cultivars with improved resistance to BYD, little is known about the impact that this resistance has on yield loss from the disease. The intent of this research was to estimate yield loss in winter wheat cultivars in Kansas due to BYD and quantify the reduction in losses associated with resistant cultivars. During seven years, BYD incidence was visually assessed on numerous winter wheat cultivars in replicated field nurseries. When grain yields were regressed against BYD inc

The Skutnabb-Kangas and Phillipson analysis of linguistic human rights is used as a basis for understanding language replacement phenomena in the United States. Use of Spanish in Chicano communities is shifting rapidly to English despite the huge numbers of recent immigrants who are dominant in Spanish. Accompanying this shift is a precipitous loss of proficiency by Spanish speakers. Such replacement of a language does not depend on personal choices made by speakers, but on the socio-political conditions within the country.

In the late nineteen eighties, electric utility companies, such as Kansas City Power and Light (KCPL), recognized the viability of extending the life of power plants by repairing or replacing major components instead of building entirely new facilities. As part of a strong life management program, a life evaluation can postpone the replacement of major components to future years. A physical condition assessment is the first step in a life evaluation.

Prairies or grasslands together with areas designated as agricultural lands are one of the largest types of land cover and land use that exist today. While prairies provide habitat to a wide variety of animals and organisms, and agricultural lands support human populations, these lands, especially those in the immediate vicinities of large urban areas, are giving way to urbanization at alarming rates. In particular, prairies are often viewed as wastelands because their benefit to the effective functioning of the urban ecosystem is often not fully understood. On the other hand, many agricultura

Two major litho- and biostratigraphic units, a Farmdalian zone (ca. 30,000 to 24,000 yr B.P.) and a Holocene zone (ca. 11,000 yr B.P. to present), are separated by a major unconformity spanning the Woodfordian (ca. 2

Abstract:

In 2006, a previously unknown wheat (Triticum aestivum) virus was discovered in Western Kansas and given the name Triticum mosaic virus (TriMV). TriMV has since been found in wheat samples isolated all across the Great Plains. Even though it can infect singularly, TriMV is mostly found with Wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) as a co-infection. The potential for TriMV to cause economic loss is significant, but very little is known about the virus. The objective of this study was to survey the TriMV population for genetic variation by nucleotide sequencing of isolates across a geographical region.

Azimuthal stress-field variations in Permian shale overlying voids in salt appear related to localized void roof failure based on interpretations of time-lapse recordings of passive seismic surface-wave data. Salt-dissolution voids in south-central Kansas exist within the Hutchinson Salt Member as a result of solution mining operations early in the 20th century. Since shear-wave velocity can be estimated from surface-wave analysis and is directly related to the shear modulus, or material rigidity, it can be used to indicate shale cap-rock competency. Temporal bulk-velocity variations in bedroc

Abstract:

Palmer amaranth influences selection of crop production practices such as irrigation, nitrogen (N) application, and weed control. The objectives of this research were to determine if Palmer amaranth was more responsive to applied N than corn and if this differed under dryland and irrigated conditions in Kansas. Field experiments were conducted near Manhattan, KS, in 2005 and 2006 to evaluate the influence of N rate and Palmer amaranth densities when grown with corn in two soil moisture environments. A very drought-stressed environment and a well-watered environment occurred in 2006, while both

Background: Universal Newborn Hearing Screening (UNHS) was introduced in Kansas in 1999. Prior to UNHS a small percentage of newborns were screened for and identified with hearing loss. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of UNHS on a local early intervention (EI) program for young children with hearing loss. Research Design: This was a retrospective study based on the chart review of children enrolled in the EI program during target years before and after the establishment of UNHS.

The standard of care for small renal masses has transitioned from radical to partial nephrectomy with strong data to support excellent oncologic outcomes, long-term preservation of renal function, and better overall survival. The literature shows that laparoscopic approaches are favorable when compared to open techniques, but outcomes in robotic surgery are still gaining data.

Abstract:

Climate change is expected to increase future temperatures, potentially resulting in reduced crop production in many key production regions. Research quantifying the complex relationship between weather variables and wheat yields is rapidly growing, and recent advances have used a variety of model specifications that differ in how temperature data are included in the statistical yield equation. A unique data set that combines Kansas wheat variety field trial outcomes for 1985–2013 with location-specific weather data is used to analyze the effect of weather on wheat yield using regression analy

Abstract:

Decomposition of oak (Quercus spp.) logs (25–35 cm diameter, 3 m long) was compared among log substrates in Oregon, Minnesota, Kansas, and North Carolina during the first 2 years on the ground. Decomposition rates (k) for integrated logs averaged 0.28 ± 0.04 year−1 (mean ± 1 SD)) during this initial period. Decomposition reflected qualitative differences among log substrates (outer and inner bark, sapwood and heartwood). Inner bark had the highest nutritional quality and was the focus of insect and microbial activity during this early stage of decomposition; only 20% of initial mass remained a

We previously reported our experience with 5 refractory TTP patients treated with rituximab (Ann Hematology 2005, 84:232). Rituximab was administered at 375 mg/m2 IV weekly for 4 weeks. Therapeutic plasma exchanges (TPE) were held at least 24 hours post rituximab. All patients attained durable remissions with a median response of 15 months (range: 10–21).

Abstract:

P83 Regulation of [Ca 2+ ] i is altered in neurons during ischemic injury in stroke, but the precise mechanism(s) underlying the Ca 2+ dysregulation are not known. The plasma membrane Ca 2+ -ATPase (PMCA) is one of the two main Ca 2+ extrusion systems that play a critical role in maintaining neuronal Ca 2+ homeostasis. We have substantial evidence showing that this enzyme is very sensitive to oxidative stress. When exposed to very low concentrations of physiologically relevant oxidants, the PMCA has been shown to form high molecular weight aggregates and this is accompanied by the decline in i
