Abstract:

Lameness is a major health problem in sheep flocks worldwide. It is associated with reduced productivity and welfare of lame animals within a flock. The consequences of lameness on production have been studied in meat and wool producing breeds, but the available research studies are limited. In dairy breeds of sheep the problem has not been investigated. Lameness can be the result of many causes, but it is mostly associated with foot lesions. With the exception of systemic diseases, a number of predisposing factors seem to dictate the epidemiology of lameness. Here, these factors are grouped in two major categories: a) genetic factors that are attributed to individual animals and b) environmental factors that affect the prevalence of lameness within the flock. In this review, different approaches to counteract those factors are presented. In principle, appropriate genetic selection, together with the implementation of preventive measures, could reduce the negative consequences of those factors. Nutrition is a fundamental factor associated with the health of the foot and the animal in general. Hence, the formulation of a balanced rationis crucial, because deficiencies in specific nutrients, involved in the keratinization of hoof wall, could predispose to lameness. The latter could be also associated with inappropriate housing conditions (e.g. bedding, ventilation). In particular, moisture has been identified as an important predisposing factor for foot lesions. Flock management (e.g. foot trimming, foot bathing), particularly in intensively reared sheep, can also affect the prevalence of lameness. Moreover, the implementation of biosecurity measures at farm level could eliminate the possibility of infectious footrot from purchased animals. In conclusion, the implementation of any preventive measures against the predisposing factors of lameness implies that the farmer is aware of the importance and the consequences of lameness in his flock. The role of the veterinarian is also important. The veterinarian should not focus only on the diagnosis and the treatment of lame animals, but should also try to educate the farmer on the epizootiology of the problem.

Abstract:

Context: The aim of this research was to identify whether the underlying cognitive mechanisms suggested to contribute to the maintenance of depression are present in a community sample of people who report insomnia. Design: In a cross section study, rumination, inhibition and set switching cognitive processes were compared in a community sample of 79 participants aged 18-59 years. The Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) was used to identify subjective ‘good’ and ‘poor sleepers’. Using Morin et al., (2011) recommendations, a cutoff score of 10 was used to differentiate between this community sample of good (n = 43) and poor(n = 36) sleepers. Measures: Assessments included: the ISI; Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; Epworth Sleepiness Scale; The Ruminative Response Styles questionnaire; Pre Sleep Arousal Scale; Spielberger’s State/Trait Anxiety Inventory and the Beck Depression Inventory. The task-switching paradigm described by Mayr and Keele (2000), was used to design a computer-based program to obtain an index of set shifting and an index of inhibition of previously relevant information. Main findings: Between group comparisons were made using a one-way ANOVA. Data replicated previous findings showing people with poor sleep differ significantly in their psychological makeup compared to good sleepers. Data show a distinct psychological profile that has been found in previous research when comparing a community sample of people with and without poor sleep.

Full text

Abstract:

A definition of difficult labour was developed after reviewing the literature, consulting with experts, and examining alternatives. Difficult labour, in primiparas, was defined as either prolonged labour with vaginal delivery, longer than 15 hours from admission to full dilatation, or cesarean section after admission for uncomplicated labour. This measure proved, to a satisfactory degree, practical, reliable and valid.
A study of predisposing factors, measured prior to labour onset, was conducted in 1,125 primiparas at two hospitals, a community hospital and a high-risk referral hospital. Analysis was restricted to 781 primiparas, admitted to hospital for uncomplicated (spontaneous) labour. Rates of difficult labour were 17% at the community hospital and 24% at the high-risk referral hospital. Rates of cesarean section were in keeping with high rates reported elsewhere, but rates of prolonged labour were higher than expected. Anxiety about childbirth, as self reported prior to labour onset, was not found to predispose to difficult labour, nor was lack of attendance at childbirth education classes. Factors predisposing to difficult labour, at both hospitals, were short maternal height (p = 0.01) and heavy body mass index, kg/m('2) (p = 0.01). Further research is needed, using a reliable measure of difficult labour, to clarify reasons for labour differences between women and hospitals.

Abstract:

Background: Hyperhidrosis (HH) is a disorder in which patient suffers from excessive sweating without any known etiology such as the rise in temperature. Although there have been some epidemiological studies on hyperhidrosis, questions still remain regarding the prevalence of hyperhidrosis and associated demographical, ethnic or geographical factors. Similarly, the association of hyperhidrosis with anxiety and depression has not been systematically investigated. Finally, the relationship between daytime hyperhidrosis and nighttime sweating has not been examined. Methods: One thousand and ten consecutive subjects attending dermatology outpatient clinics in Shanghai Skin Disease Hospital and 1017 subjects in Skin Care Center of Vancouver General Hospital were investigated for this case-control, cross-sectional study after filling out a questionnaire on their presenting concerns, demographical information and mental stress and sweating symptoms. The subjects were then classified to have primary HH subtypes using the criteria of International Hyperhidrosis Society, late onset hyperhidrosis, or no-HH. Then the prevalence of HH and its correlation with anxiety, depression and NS was examined in both single variants and multivariate logistic regression analyses, stratified according to age at examination, sex, ethnicity, presenting diagnosis, BMI, and specific study cities. Results: The prevalence of total HH is very similar in Shanghai and Vancouver (about 18%). Primary HH subtypes have the highest prevalence in those younger than 30 years old, decreasing dramatically in later years. Caucasian subjects are more likely to develop axillary hyperhidrosis compared to Chinese subjects. The prevalence of anxiety and depression was 21.3% and 27.2% in hyperhidrosis patients, respectively, and 7.5% and 9.7% in patients without hyperhidrosis. Among the effects of ethnicity, mental stress symptoms and HH, which are correlated with NS, HH is the most associated factor with NS as more than half of the patients with HH suffer from NS. Conclusion: Prevalence of total HH is similar in different geographical locations. However, certain specific HH subtypes can show great variations according to ethnicity, age, body mass index and sex and based on the severity of sweating. Similar to NS, both anxiety and depression were more prevalent in patients with HH, than those without HH.

Abstract:

A physically inactive lifestyle is a predisposing risk factor for fall-related hip fracture. The circumstances, or precipitating factors, surrounding hip fractures are, however, not well understood, a factor of relevance for Swedish adults who have one of the highest hip fracture risks in the world. The aims of this thesis, therefore, were: to explore perceptions of physical activity (PA) among older adults, to describe the circumstances surrounding hip fracture events and the health characteristics of those who experience them. Four observational studies were conducted involving qualitative, epidemiological and mixed method designs. Participants in study I were recruited from community settings in Stockholm and Dublin (n=30). Studies II-IV (sample sizes, n=484, n=125, n=477) were based on a population-based sample of people admitted to Uppsala University hospital due to hip fracture. Study IV also incorporated the background population of Uppsala county in 2010 (n=117 494). Analysis of PA perceptions in study I revealed that PA which is functional nature is perceived as most meaningful among certain participants. The uptake of PA in later years was a means of creating a new self-identify and being active in outdoor environments was an important culture-specific motivator to PA among Swedish participants. Analysis of hip fractures patterns in studies II-III showed that: hip fractures among psychotropic drug users were twice as likely to occur during night-time hours compared to those occurring among people not receiving these drugs. Additionally, the fall-related hip fractures of community dwellers with poorest health and function tended to occur indoors during positional changes. In study IV, all categories of disease (according to the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision) were seen to be positively associated with hip fracture. Cardiovascular disease and previous injury (including previous fracture) posed the highest relative and absolute fracture risks. Detailed investigation of hip fracture circumstances reveal patterns in health and functional characteristics, which provide information regarding predisposing and precipitating factors for these events. This knowledge, in combination with findings regarding PA perceptions, can be used when identifying individuals at high risk for hip fracture and when tailoring fracture prevention at an individual level to those at risk.

Abstract:

Epidemiological data suggest that viral infections might be predisposing factors for bacterial meningitis and carriage of type b Haemophilus influenzae (Hib), Neisseria meningitidis or Streptococcus pneumoniae, the three pathogens most commonly associated with bacterial meningitis. Non-secretors of ABO blood group antigens are over-represented among patients with bacterial meningitis and in populations affected by some outbreaks. The first objective of the study was to examine the hypothesis that non-secretors were also over-represented among patients with respiratory viral infections. Compared with the local population, there was a significantly higher proportion of secretors among patients with disease due to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza A virus, rhinovirus and ECHO virus. The hypothesis that Le^b and/or H-type 1 antigens present on cells or in body fluids of secretors might be receptor(s) for RSV was examined. Affinity purified molecules with Le^b or H type 1 determinants or synthetic receptor analogues did not decrease the infectivity of RSV for HEp-2 cells. Bacterial attachment to mucosal surfaces is an important prerequisite for infection. The second major objective was to assess the effect of RSV infection of HEp-2 cells (a human epithelial cell line) on binding of bacteria responsible for meningitis. Binding of bacteria labelled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) to HEp-2 cells and RSV-infected HEp-2 cells was compared by flow cytometry. Strains of meningococci (3) and Hib (5) expressing antigens of different serogroups, serotypes and subtypes and a strain of Staphylococcus aureus bound significantly more effectively to virus infected cells. Similar patterns of increased binding of unlabelled meningococci to monolayers of RSV-infected cells were also observed. Studies to identify the changes on the cell surface associated with RSV infection responsible for enhanced binding were carried out with one strain of meningococcus. Viral infection of HEp-2 cells did not enhance the expression of Lewis^a antigen, a proposed receptor for bacteria in non-secretors. Monoclonal antibodies to the attachment glycoprotein G of RSV decreased the bacterial binding to infected HEp-2 cells; but monoclonal antibodies to the fusion glycoprotein F did not affect binding.

Abstract:

Background: The causes of Hoarding Disorder, a newly recognised psychiatric disorder, are unknown. A number of recent twin studies have suggested that hoarding symptoms are heritable but heritability estimates vary across studies and the reasons for this remain unclear. Findings from two recent twin studies have suggested a dynamic picture with age- and gender-specific risk factors accounting for the variation across studies. Aim: The present systematic review aims to provide the first, comprehensive, and up-to-date review of twin studies of hoarding symptoms, with a view of clarifying and shedding light on gender- and age-related changes in heritability for HD. Methods: PubMed, PsycINFO, Medline, Embase, and Web of Science were searched up to March 2016 using relevant key search and MeSH terms, according to PRISMA guidelines. The quality of studies was assessed using a revised 11-items checklist for cross-sectional/prevalence studies assessing the three major domains of risk of bias. Results: a total of six studies met inclusion criteria. The methodological quality of included studies was moderate-to-high for selection and methodological bias, but overall poor for confounding bias. Genetic factors play an important role in the aetiology of hoarding symptoms across all studies. Genetic factors seem to play a stable and significant role for male hoarding behaviours. For women, on the other hand, these influences appear to vary across development, with shared environmental factors predisposing young females to hoarding symptoms and genes playing a more influential role only later in life. Conclusions: hoarding symptoms are moderately heritable; the extent of genetic influences on hoarding however is likely to change during development and differ between genders. The current review supports genetic research and further examination of environmental factors predisposing individuals to hoarding symptoms. More research, including longitudinal twin studies, is needed to conclusively identify and compare risk factors for hoarding across genders and age groups.

Abstract:

This work examines the ecological, social and genetic factors that predispose amphibians to infection. In the last 30 years many amphibian populations have declined due to infectious disease, although few researchers have studied the factors involved in mediating amphibian infection. My research is designed to explore some of these factors. I first examined the effects of crowding, kin composition (the relatedness of individuals in a group), and habitat complexity on the growth and survival of Xenopus laevis tadpoles exposed to the bacterial pathogen Aeromonas hydrophila. In tadpoles, stress, and in particular corticosterone, a hormone associated with stress, is known to inhibit growth. Crowding, kin composition, and habitat complexity have all been linked to tadpole growth. As corticosterone exposure is also linked to reduced immune function, I examined how these ecological factors influence tadpoles' disease resistance. Tadpoles exposed to the bacterium were significantly smaller and more likely to die than control tadpoles. Tadpoles reared only with siblings (pure sibship groups) were larger, less variable in size, and had lower mortality rates than tadpoles reared in mixed sibship groups. The size difference between pure and mixed sibship groups was greatest when they were exposed to the pathogen. Habitat complexity reduced size variation within tanks but did not affect mean tadpole size. Mixed kinship composition and high tadpole density can increase competition, reduce growth, and increase disease susceptibility. These results indicate that growth was inhibited by pathogen exposure but kin association may ameliorate this effect. The Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) is an integral part of the vertebrate adaptive immune system. To determine the importance of the MHC in conferring disease resistance in amphibians, I challenged X. laevis tadpoles, bearing different combinations of four MHC haplotypes (f, g, j, and r), with A. hydrophila in two experiments. Exposure to A. hydrophila affected the growth and survival of these tadpoles and that the MHC moderated these effects. Tadpoles with two MHC haplotypes (r and g) were susceptible to this pathogen and tadpoles with the other two haplotypes (f and j) were resistant. Heterozygous tadpoles with both susceptible and resistant haplotypes were always intermediate to either homozygotes in size and survival. These results demonstrate that MHC genotype plays a major role in determining the impact of bacterial pathogens on the growth and survival of X. laevis tadpoles. To test whether the effect of exposure to pathogens differs according to the similarity of the hosts I challenged tadpoles with natural levels of the microorganisms associated with different MHC genotypes by exposing the tadpoles to water preconditioned by adults of different MHC genotypes. If the pathogens are adapted to the MHC genotype of their hosts, tadpoles exposed to water from adults with which they shared MHC haplotypes would be more susceptible than those exposed to water from MHC-dissimilar adults. Alternatively, if the hosts are adapted to their pathogens tadpoles may be more resistant to pathogens from MHC-similar frogs than those from MHC-dissimilar frogs. I found that tadpoles exposed to water from MHC-dissimilar animals developed faster, but without increased growth, and were more likely to die than those exposed to water from MHC-similar animals. Furthermore, there was an optimal difference between the tadpoles’ and the donors’ MHC where tadpoles were sufficiently different to the donor to defend against its locally adapted pathogens, and sufficiently similar to not be exposed to especially virulent foreign pathogens. Finally, I present an inventory of bacteria found in the gut and skin (nonsystemic sites) and heart, muscle, and abdominal cavity (systemic sites) of captive frogs. I found several species of bacteria previously identified as amphibian pathogens and many bacteria in systemic sites that have not been considered pathogenic to amphibians. None of the frogs tested positive for the amphibian chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis. I discuss the potential importance of these species of bacteria as amphibian pathogens and as protective probiotics, using New Zealand frogs as a case study. In its sum, this work describes some of the factors that can affect amphibians’ ability to resist disease. I show that the genetic constitution of an individual, specifically in terms of the MHC, affects the impact of a disease, and so too does its social and ecological conditions, including the level of crowding, the kinship of its groupmates and the specific microbial challenges of its immediate environment. I also show that many of the factors linked to tadpole growth and development that are well described in other amphibians also affect Xenopus tadpoles.

Abstract:

Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) is a multifactorial illness requiring a personalized biopsychosocial (BPS) formulation across the lifespan to understand its causes. This chapter reviews the current evidence focusing on predisposing, precipitating, perpetuating, and prognostic variables (4P’s), merging them into a chronologically based 4P-BPS model. Positive PNES randomized controlled trials suggest that self-efficacy and illness beliefs, avoidance behaviors, trigger sensitization, and comorbid psychiatric disorders are important etiological variables to target during treatment. Epidemiological and neurobiological research suggests that further treatment development focusing on the causal impact of trauma and affect dysregulation is lacking and is warranted going forward. The clinical implications for the evidence to date, as well as recommendations for translating current knowledge into therapeutic behaviors, are discussed.
