Abstract:
The physical parameters of oats of prime importance in determining milling quality are kernel content, the content of free kernels, hullability and screenings. In addition to screenings, hectolitre weight is used in the commercial trading of grain as an indicator of quality due to the absence of suitable methods, for commercial use, for determining the parameters that are closely related to milling quality. The effects of nitrogen (0–200 kg/ha), seed rate (200 and 300 seeds/m2) and plant growth regulator, chlormequat chloride, on grain quality were investigated at two locations, in one spring and three autumn sown experiments, in 1997/98 and 1998/99. Yields increased at higher rates of nitrogen and at the higher seed rate but were not significantly affected by chlormequat chloride. The effects of nitrogen rate and seed rate on kernel content were inconsistent but overall there was a small reduction at the higher nitrogen and higher seed rates and where chlormequat chloride was applied. In general, free kernels were reduced at the higher rates of nitrogen, at the higher seed rate and where chlormequat chloride was applied. Hullability improved at higher rates of nitrogen but was poorer at the higher seed rate and with chlormequat chloride. Screenings increased and hectolitre weight declined at the higher rates of nitrogen, the higher seed rate and with chlormequat chloride. The decline in hectolitre weight due to treatments within each experiment in general was associated with reductions in kernel content, content of free kernels and an increase in screenings. However, variation in hectolitre weight did not reflect variation in kernel content, free kernels and screenings between experiments. Overall, the changes in quality due to nitrogen rate, seed rate and chlormequat chloride were small compared with differences between varieties.

Abstract:
Two trials were conducted to study the nutritional value of two wheat screening samples in broiler diets. Experiment 1 evaluated the chemical composition, and energy and amino acid digestibility while, exp. 2 evaluated the performance of 1980 female broiler chickens, housed in straw litter pens, and fed four different levels of the two wheat screening samples. In exp. 2, the wheat screening samples replaced 0%, 25%, 50% and 100% for sample 1 and 0, 25, and 50% for sample 2 of the wheat in diets fed to broilers. Each treatment was replicated six times with 55 birds per replication. The metabolizable energy, and protein content, and mean ileal amino acid digestibility were 3107 kcal kg-1, 15.77%, 83.3%, and 3023 kcal kg-1, 15.19%, 80.4% for wheat screening samples 1 and 2, respectively. The samples contained 90.5 and 88.2% wheat and the major weed seed in both samples was wild buckwheat, which was 4.5 and 6.3% in samples 1 and 2, respectively. In the broiler feeding trial, no significant differences were found between the wheat diet and those containing wheat screenings with regards to growth, feed efficiency, and mortality. There were variations in the composition of wheat screening samples; however, in this study, these variations did not significantly affect the performance of broiler chickens. Wheat screenings totally replaced wheat in balanced broiler diets without negatively affecting performance. Key words: Broiler chicken, feed, wheat screenings, wild buckwheat.

Abstract:
This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of graded levels of number 1 wheat screenings on performance, nutrient digestibility and carcass traits when fed to growing-finishing pigs. Forty crossbred pigs (Camborough 15 Line female × Canabred sire) weighing an average of 19.7 ± 2.8 kg were assigned to one of five dietary treatments in a 5 × 2 factorial design experiment. The main effects tested included level of wheat screenings and sex of pig (barrows and gilts). The levels of inclusion were 0, 18, 36, 54 and 72% in the grower diet and 0, 20.5, 41, 61.5 and 82% in the finisher diet. Screenings were added largely at the expense of barley. A botanical analysis was preformed and it indicated that the screenings contained approximately 88.5% whole or cracked wheat with the most prevalent weed seeds being wild buckwheat (6.7%), canola seed (2.8%) and cleavers (0.96%). There was a linear (P = 0.001) increase in the digestibility of dry matter, crude protein and gross energy with increased incorporation of wheat screenings in the diet. Over the entire experimental period (19.7–105.1 kg), there was no change in growth rate due to feeding wheat screenings, but feed intake declined in a linear (P = 0.044) fashion while feed conversion improved linearly (P = 0.014) as the inclusion level of screenings increased. There were no sex effects on pig performance. Dietary inclusion of wheat screenings had no significant effects on any carcass traits including dressing percent, carcass value index, lean yield, loin fat or loin lean. The carcass value index for gilts was higher than that of barrows (P = 0.038). The overall results of this experiment indicate that number 1 wheat screenings can be successfully uti lized as an energy source for use in growing-finishing diets and can be fed at levels as high as 72% for growing pigs and 82% for finishing pigs with no negative effects on pig performance or carcass quality. However, should the level of weed seeds increase or the type of weed seeds contaminating the screenings change appreciably from those reported here, then it may be necessary to reduce the incorporation level of screenings in the diet.

Abstract:
There are multiple vehicles for endophyte toxicosis in animals including exposure from pasture, straw residues and seed screenings. This report discusses the clinical cases typically seen with tall fescue and perennial ryegrass toxicosis in Oregon and Japan. Case I involves a herd of 330 Black Angus cattle. Before the March calving season the owner wished to increase the protein content of the feed ration by feeding pellets made of seed screenings and grass hay. Forty two animals were lost to tall fescue toxicosis and dry gangrene of the feet and legs. Case II involves 1300 beef cows in Eastern Oregon fed grass straw; 485 animals were lost due to dry gangrene characteristic of tall fescue toxicosis. Case III describes 4 of 15 cases of both tall fescue and perennial ryegrass toxicosis in Japanese black cattle. Case IV involves llamas and alpacas on pasture and lawn paddocks where some animals were affected by tall fescue and some by perennial ryegrass.

Abstract:
Postharvest plant residues from Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) seed production may be useful as an organic amendment in container mixes. Postharvest residues of `South Dakota' bluegrass were composted with and without an N amendment, such as cattle manure (M) or alfalfa seed screenings (As). After composting, all residues were ground to 4- to 6-mm segments and mixed with sphagnum peat and perlite (2:1:1 by volume). Media that contained amended bluegrass residues had higher electrical conductivity (EC) values and lower C: N ratios (<19:1) than media made with other bluegrass residues. Tomato (Lycopersion esculentum Mill. `Laura') seedlings grown in residue composted with As had at least 3.5- and 4-fold more shoot dry weight and leaf area, respectively, than plants grown in any other composted medium. In addition, seedlings grown in composted bluegrass residues amended with As had 34% and 41% more shoot dry weight and leaf area than plants grown in a 75% peatmoss–25% perlite medium. Composted residue amended with alfalfa seed screenings appears to be suitable as a peatmoss extender in container media.

Abstract:
The effect of four seed rates on the grain yield, grain N content and grain size of Blenheim malting barley sown on two dates in the spring was tested on three different soils over a 4-year period (1991–94). The four seed rates (120, 160, 200 and 240 kg/ha) gave mean plant populations of 222, 308, 374 and 430 plants/m2, respectively, for the first sowing date (February to early March) and 235, 340, 405 and 470 plants/m2 for the second sowing date, 3–5 weeks later (late March to mid-April). The earlier-sown crops generally gave greater yield, lower grain N and smaller amount of screenings, but in two of the twelve experiments, the first sowing gave lower yield and greater grain N.The influence of seed rate on yield and quality depended on sowing date. The three higher seed rates (160, 200, 240 kg/ha) had little influence on yield or grain N, irrespective of sowing date, and there was no significant difference in yield between the lowest (120 kg/ha) and the three higher seed rates when the crop was sown in February and early March. But when the crops were sown in April, the lowest seed rate (120 kg/ha) gave the lowest yield in all seven comparisons and gave significantly reduced yield in three of the seven comparisons. There was a significant increase in grain N in three of the comparisons. Seed rate had little effect on grain screenings or 1000-grain weight. Soil differences did not influence the effect of seed rate on the yield and quality of the grain.

Abstract:
A study was conducted to investigate the variability in chemical and nutritive composition of wheat screenings, bakery by-products and wheat mill run used by the feed industry in Canada. On average, and in comparison to wheat (as-fed basis), the wheat screenings (16 samples) contained less starch (457 vs. 560 g kg-1; P < 0.0001), less available energy (TMEn) (13.19 vs. 13.76 MJ kg-1; P < 0.05), similar amounts of sugars (19 vs. 12 g kg-1; P > 0.05), phytate phosphorus (2.4 vs. 3.0 g kg-1; P > 0.05), and higher levels of protein (151 vs. 126 g kg-1; P < 0.0001), fat (66 vs. 12 g kg-1; P < 0.0001) and non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) (100 vs. 91 g kg-1; P < 0.01). A negative relationship (P < 0.0001) between starch and fat contents of the wheat screenings samples was noted indicating that a decrease in starch content of 20 g kg-1 would result in an increase in fat content by approximately 9 g kg-1. This inverse relationship should result in the maintenance of a relatively high content of available energy in wheat screenings. The low level of glucosinolates in wheat screenings (min. 0.66, max. 4.24 µmol g-1) indicated that canola seed rather than wild and/or condiment mustard seed was a predominant oilseed in the samples and the main contributor to the high oil content. Bakery by-products (12 samples) contained 119 g kg-1 protein (as-fed basis) , 378 g kg-1 starch, 84 g kg-1 sugars, 81 g kg-1 fat, 87 g kg-1 NSP and 14.34 MJ kg-1 TMEn. Six samples of wheat mill run were evaluated, and on an as-fed basis were found to contain 165 g kg-1 protein, 264 g kg-1 starch, 36 g kg-1 sugars, 43 g kg-1 fat, 224 g kg-1 NSP and 5.2 g kg-1 phytate phosphorus. Although high levels of phytate phosphorus were found to be present in the mill run samples, the mill run was also found to contain the highest activity of endogenous phytase (2331 units kg-1) when compared to wheat (1358 units kg-1) or wheat screenings (1348 units kg-1). The total dietary fibre content of mill run was found to be 387 g kg-1 on average and was much higher than that determined for wheat screenings (195 g kg-1) and bakery by-products (134 g kg-1).

Abstract:
Tomato has been genetically modified for providing properties such as insect-resistance or delayed-ripening. Tomato seeds purchased from several bazaars and markets were screened for the presence of genetic modification by targeting NptII kanamycin resistance, Nos terminator, and 35S promoter gene regions which are the most commonly transformed gene regions in transgenic plants, and then ripening-delayed tomato seeds were tried to be identified in this study. F type truncated-PG gene and Sam-k gene were selected as the indicator of genetically modified ripening delayed tomatoes. DNAs of 25 seed samples were isolated by CTAB method and examined with several primer pairs, and the primer sets that provided consistent results were selected to conduct routine testing by PCR analysis of the samples. In screening analysis via conventional PCR, 4 samples were amplified with 35S, Nos and NptII primer sets. Among other samples, 3 of them were amplified with 35S and Nos primer sets and 2 of them were amplified only with 35S primer set. The amplification was observed with Nos, NptII and Sam-k primers in one sample and this sample was identified as 35 1 N, since the sequence result of the PCR product amplified with Sam-k primers showed high homology with the Samase gene of T3 Coliphage. F type truncated PG gene was not observed in any of the samples. Although this study demonstrates the presence of commonly used gene regions in genetically modified tomatoes, further analysis of the genetically modified ripening delayed tomato seeds via construct specificor event specific PCR techniques is needed for confirmation.

Abstract:
Micronutrient malnutrition is a leading worldwide health problem that affects billions of people particularly in the developing countries resulting in serious health conditions. The domestication of crops produced high yield and larger seed size but with a reduction in nutritious quality. The locus NAM or Gpc-1 affects both the seed size and nutrient content in wheat and barley. A non-functional allele of the gene increases the seed size but at the expense of protein and micronutrient content. However, this gene was found to be lost in wheat during the early domestication resulting in lower nutrient content. Therefore, the selection for high yield has lead to lower grain nutrients. Our aim of the present study is to investigate when the selection for yield occured in barley and to check the existence of the wild type allele in the 19th century of landrace barley crops. In addition, to analyse the barley grain concentration of protein, iron and zinc among the landrace and cultivars from various time periods of northern Europe. The grain nutrient concentration of Nitrogen, Iron and Zinc did not show significant difference among the investigated 80 Scandinavian barley accessions. The grain nutrient concentration did not correlate with the seed size and chlorophyll content. The polymorphism was not observed among the allelic diversity of HvNAM-1 gene indicating that the NAM-B1 gene still prevails in the 19th century barley cultivars.

Abstract:
Woody plant herbicide screening techniques were evaluated in an attempt to expedite the screening process and decrease amounts of herbicide active ingredient required. Rapid greenhouse screening of woody plant seedlings was performed in less than six months while rapid seed screening was performed in less than twenty days. A traditional field screen, requiring ten months, was performed for comparison purposes. Leaf area â biomass ratios were also examined for their influence on herbicide efficacy. Linear regressions were performed using traditional field screen data as the dependent variable and rapid screening technique data as the independent data.

Rapid screens using triclopyr produced more statistically significant regressions compared to those involving imazapyr. Significant regressions were produced that could predict field response of several species using both herbicides and either rapid screening technique. This indicated that rapid screening techniques could determine herbicide efficacy and/or species spectrum of control in much less time with much less herbicide. Rapid seed screens could estimate species spectrum within five days after treatment. The rapid greenhouse screen and rapid seed screen techniques can provide woody plant herbicide developers initial efficacy and spectrum of control data in a cost- and time- effective manner.

Testing showed that as woody plants mature from seedling to sapling, there is a decrease in the leaf area â total aboveground biomass ratio. The decrease in this ratio consistently decreased efficacy of both imazapyr and triclopyr at the lower active ingredient rates. Seedlings with the higher leaf area â biomass ratio had, on the average, higher efficacy response rates to herbicide treatments.

Abstract:
Soybeans are among seeds the common plant foods that contains high protein contents and high oil. The protein provides about 35 to 38 percent of the seeds calories compared to around 20 to 30 percent in other legumes and many animal products. The quality of soy protein is notable and approaches the quality of meat and milk. Unlike many other good sources of protein, soybeans are low in saturated fat and are cholesterol-free. Its proteins provide all the important amino acids, most the amounts needed by humans (NSRL, 2010). As the most consumed vegetable oil in the world, soybean oil has been used substantially in the food industry (Soystats, 2010). Its utilization is determined by its fatty acid composition, with commodity soybean oil typically 13% palmatic acid (16:0), 4% stearic acid (18:0), 20% oleic acid (18:1), 55% linoleic acid (18:2), and 8% linolenic acid (18:3). The change of fatty acid profiles to improve soybean oil quality has been a long time goal of many researchers throughout the world. Biodiesel is an up and coming trend in energy production. Breeding effort can be undertaken in order to produce a higher energy profile soybean oil. Using ethyl-methanesulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis effects on DNA, significant changes to the genes and gene network underlying the protein and oil profile can be achieved. These changes are hard to accomplish using standard breeding techniques. In addition, high amount of linolenic and stearic acid are very important for fuel and biodiesel production, but are not good for food production due to the fact that such oil is oxidized easily and the food goes rancid quickly. However, soybean oil with elevated amount of oleic acid is desirable for food, because this monounsaturated fatty acid improves the nutrition and oxidative stability of soybean oil compared to other oils. In order to improve the quality of soybean oil and processed foods, chemically mutagenized soybeans have been developed in this project. Seeds harvested from individual M3 and M4 plants (from 2 successive years 2012 and 2013) were analyzed for protein content, oil composition, and content. Moreover, seven phenotypic traits including oil analysis (stearic, palmitic, oleic, linolenic and linoleic), seed protein content, weight of the seeds (High yield), seeds color, stem length, germination rates, and branch architecture were collected and analyzed in this project of soybean `Forrest' mutagenized population. The result of this research showed that there were 25 significantly different lines (p< 0.05) compare to the wild type, which is useful for developing mutants with altered oil and fatty acid compositions in soybean.

The increasing human activity has been responsible by profound changes and a constinuos degradation of the soil compartment in all the European territory. Some European policies are appearing focusing soil’s protection and the management of contaminated sites, in order to recover land for other uses. To regulate the risk assessment and the management of contaminated soils, many European member states adopted soil guideline values, as for example soil screnning values (SSV).These values are particularly useful for the the first tier of the Ecological Risk Assessment (ERA) processes of contaminated sites,especially for a first screening of sites requiring a more site-specific evaluation. Hence, the approriate definition of regional SSVs will have relevant economic impacts in the management of contaminated sites. Portugal is one of European Member States that still lack these soil guideline values. In this context, this study gaves a remarkable contribution in the generation of ecotoxicological data for soil microbiological parameters, terrestrial plants and invertebrates for the derivation of SSVs for uranium (U), cadmium (Cd) and copper (Cu), using a Portuguese natural soil, representative of a dominant type of soil in the Portuguese territory. SSVs were derived based on two methods proposed by the the Technical Guidance Document for Risk Assessment of the European Commission; namely the assessment factor method (AF) and the species sensitivity distribution (SSD) method (with some adaptations). The outputs of both methods were compared and discussed. Further, this study laid the foundation for a deeper reflection about the cut-off (hazard concentration for a given percentage of species - HCps) to be estimated from the SSDs, and to be selected for the derivation of SSVs, with the adequate level of protection. It was proven that this selection may vary for different contaminants, however a clear justification should be given, in each case. The SSvs proposed in this study were for: U (151.4 mg U kg-1dw), Cd (5.6 mg Cd kg-1dw), and Cu (58.5 mg Cu kg-1dw) These values should now be tested for their descriminating power of soils with different levels of contamination. However, this studies clarifies the approach that should be followed for the derivation of SSVs for other metals and organic contaminants, and for other dominant types of Portuguese natural soils.
O aumento das atividades humanas tem sido responsável por mudanças profundas e por uma degradação contínua do compartimento solo, em todo o território Europeu. Em resposta a este problema, algumas políticas Europeias estão agora a emergir orientadas especificamente para a proteção do solo e para a gestão das áreas contaminadas, a fim de recuperar os solos degradados para outros usos. Para regulamentar a avaliação de risco e a gestão de solos contaminados, muitos Estados-Membros Europeus adoptaram valores de qualidade do solo, como por exemplo os “valores de rastreio ou triagem” (do inglês: soil screening values ou SSVs). Estes valores são particularmente úteis para a primeira etapa dos processos de avaliação de risco ecológico (ARE) de locais contaminados, especialmente para um primeiro rastreio dos locais, destinado a separar aqueles em que os riscos são claramente reduzidos daqueles que exigem uma avaliação mais específica e aprofundada para o local. Assim, a definição de SSVs regionais terá impactos económicos relevantes na gestão dos locais contaminados. Portugal é um dos Estados-Membros Europeus que ainda não definiu SSVs. Neste contexto, este estudo dá uma notável contribuição na geração de dados ecotoxicológicos para parâmetros microbiológicos do solo, plantas terrestres e invertebrados necessários para a obtenção de SSVs para urânio (U), cádmio (Cd) e cobre (Cu), utilizando um solo natural Português, representante de um tipo dominante de solo existente no território nacional. Assim, foram obtidos SSVs para os metais referidos com base em dois métodos propostos pelo Documento de Orientação Técnica para Avaliação de Riscos da Comissão Europeia, nomeadamente o método dos factores de avaliação (do inglês: assessment factors ou AF) e o método probabilístico da distribuição da sensibilidade espécies (do inglês: species sensitivity distributions ou SSDs) (com algumas adaptações). Os resultados dos dois métodos foram comparados e discutidos. Além disso, este estudo lançou as bases para uma reflexão mais profunda sobre o ponto de corte (concentração de risco para uma determinada percentagem de espécies) a ser estimado a partir das distribuições de sensibilidade das espécies (SSDs), e para ser selecionado para a obtenção de SSVs, com o nível adequado de proteção. Neste estudo foi comprovado que esta seleção pode variar para diferentes metais ou outros contaminantes, no entanto, uma justificação clara deve ser dada, em cada caso. Os SSvs propostos neste estudo foram de: U (151,4 mg U kg- 1ms ), Cd (5,6 mg Cd kg- 1ms ) e Cu ( 58,5 mg Cu kg- 1 ms) Estes valores devem agora ser testados quanto à sua capacidade para descriminar solos com diferentes níveis de contaminação. No entanto, este estudo esclarece e sugere a abordagem que deve ser seguida para a derivação de SSVs para outros metais e contaminantes orgânicos, e para outros tipos dominantes de solos naturais portugueses.

Abstract:
A doenÃa renal crÃnica (DRC) à assintomÃtica em seus estÃgios iniciais, portanto seu diagnÃstico precoce depende de rastreamento. Uma grande parcela de pessoas com risco para DRC nÃo à avaliada quanto à funÃÃo renal. Um questionÃrio denominado SCORED foi desenvolvido para predizer a probabilidade de um indivÃduo apresentar DRC, baseado apenas em informaÃÃes demogrÃficas e clÃnicas, sem necessidade de resultados laboratoriais. Nosso estudo teve por objetivo avaliar o desempenho do SCORED entre hipertensos e diabÃticos cadastrados em um Programa de SaÃde da FamÃlia na cidade de Meruoca, CearÃ. A amostra foi composta por 221 participantes. A taxa de filtraÃÃo glomerular < 60 mL/min foi utilizada para o diagnÃstico da DRC. Os resultados do desempenho do SCORED foram os seguintes: a pontuaÃÃo gerada pelo SCORED foi preditora independente da presenÃa de DRC (OR=1,26; IC 95%=1,10-1,59; p=0,04); o questionÃrio apresentou sensibilidade de 97% e especificidade de 23% em diagnosticar DRC, com valor preditivo positivo de 37%, valor preditivo negativo de 94% e acurÃcia de 47%. Alta sensibilidade e alto valor preditivo negativo habilitam o SCORED como instrumento de rastreamento de DRC entre hipertensos e diabÃticos. A utilizaÃÃo desse questionÃrio tem o potencial de incrementar o diagnÃstico precoce da DRC entre pacientes cadastrados em Programas de SaÃde da FamÃlia, alÃm de sua aplicabilidade na populaÃÃo geral e em campanhas educacionais.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is asymptomatic in its initial stages; therefore, its early diagnosis depends on screening. A large number of people at risk for CKD are not assessed for renal function. A questionnaire denominated SCORED (Screening for Occult Renal Disease) was developed to predict the probability of an individual presenting CKD, based on demographic and clinical information, without the need for laboratory results. Our study had as objective to assess the performance of SCORED among subjects with diabetes and hypertension registered in the Family Health Program in the city of Meruoca, CearÃ. The sample was made up of 221 participants. A glomerular filtration rate less than 60 mL/min was used for the diagnosis of CKD. Performance results on SCORED were the following: the score was an independent predictor for the presence of CKD (OR=1.26; 95% CI=1.10-1.59; p=0.04); the sensitivity and specificity of this questionnaire were 97% and 23% for the diagnosis of CKD, with positive predictive value of 37%, negative predictive value of 94%, and accuracy of 47%. High sensitivity and high negative predictive value qualified SCORED as a screening tool for CKD among subjects with diabetes and hypertension. The use of this questionnaire has the potential to improve early diagnosis of CKD among patients registered in the Family Health Program, other than its applicability in the general population and in educational campaigns.

Abstract:
Topoisomerase 2α (Topo2α) is an essential protein with DNA decatenating enzymatic properties, indispensable for chromosome decatenation and segregation. It is a target for a plethora of antitumour drugs and Topo2α protein levels have been associated with the success of treatment, but also drug resistance and secondary malignancies. Although unique in its ability to resolve catenated chromosomes, the role of Topo2α in other steps of DNA metabolism, such as DNA replication elongation and termination have been elusive. A thorough understanding of the role of Topo2α in the cell will not only allow for increased insight into the mechanisms it is involved in, but it will also shed light on proteins and pathways that can act as back-up in its absence, and therefore hopefully expand the basis on which to improve treatment options. Through a synthetic lethal interaction (SLI) screen with an siRNA library targeting 200 DNA repair and signalling genes, Topo2α emerged as being synthetic lethal to Werner protein (WRN), a RecQ helicase involved in maintaining genome integrity mainly in S phase, and the loss of which leads to Werner Syndrome (WS), a segmental progeroid syndrome. The screen was performed in WRN deficient cells, with the initial aim to find proteins that act to buffer against loss of viability, which is the central idea in the concept of synthetic lethality in the absence of WRN. The screen revealed an SLI between WRN and Topo2α and although we were unable to fully validate this, it spurred the question of Topo2α’s role in DNA replication. The findings in this thesis suggest that Topo2α is not required for DNA elongation and timely completion of S phase, and that simultaneous loss of the closely related isoform Topo2β does not affect replication, suggesting that these proteins do not act in parallel back-up pathways during replication. Interestingly, cells accumulate in the polyploid fraction after both depletion and inhibition of Topo2α, albeit with different kinetics. The mechanistic basis of this phenotype remains to be understood through further research, but it is highly interesting as aneuplidity and polyploidy are implicated in the initial stages of tumour development.

Abstract:
Screening for a disease must be clearly defined and differentiated from early detection. ‘Screening’ refers to the application of tests to the whole population or to defined segments such as males within certain defined high risk age groups. If applied in such a fashion ‘screening’ for prostate cancer may also be described epidemiologically as ‘secondary prevention’. While high-quality randomized studies show that screening reduces prostate cancer mortality by 21–44%, there is wide agreement that the introduction of population-based screening is at present premature because harms, mainly the high rate of overdiagnosis seen currently outweighs the benefits. This chapter attempts to put current knowledge into perspective with a set of recognized prerequirements for the application of screening, established by Wilson and Jungner in 1968.

Abstract:
Screening the Golden Ages of the Classical Tradition explores how films and television programs have engaged with one of the most powerful myths in the Western classical tradition: that humans once lived under ideal conditions, as defined by proximity to the divine. We feel nostalgia for this imagined origin, regret at being born too late to enjoy it, and worry over why we lost it. We seek to recover that “golden age” by religious piety—or, by technological innovation, try to create our own utopia. The breach between this imagined world and lived reality renders these mythical constructs as powerful political tools. For the “golden age” concept influences how participants in the Western classical tradition view our own times by comparison, as an “iron age” whose degradation we lament and wish to escape. This “golden age” complex has manifested in the world-building activities of ancient Greek and Roman texts, from Hesiod to Suetonius, and in modernity’s hagiographic memory of certain historical societies: Periclean Athens, Thermopylae-era Sparta, and Augustan Rome. These fourteen collected essays discuss how golden age themes animate screen texts ranging from prestige projects like Gladiator and HBO’s Rome, to cult classics like Xanadu and Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, to films made by auteurs including Jules Dassin’s Phaedra and the Coen Brothers’ O Brother, Where Art Thou? Essays also examine the classical “golden age” tradition in fantasy (Game of Thrones), science fiction (Serenity), horror (The Walking Dead), war/combat (the 300 franchise, Centurion, The Eagle), and the American Western.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses assessment of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), including diagnosis and screening as well as potential diagnostic pitfalls and how to avoid them. Measures used to screen for BDD, diagnose BDD, and assess BDD severity and BDD-related insight are reviewed, and guidelines for their use are provided. This chapter also discusses assessment of BDD in children and adolescents and assessment of patients who seek cosmetic procedures (such as surgery or dermatologic treatment) for appearance concerns. Because BDD is common, often severe, and usually missed in clinical settings, clinicians and researchers should routinely screen for BDD. Screening is especially recommended in mental health, substance abuse, dermatology, cosmetic surgery, and other cosmetic treatment settings. It is also important to screen for BDD when patients manifest clues suggesting a possible diagnosis of BDD (e.g., BDD rituals, camouflaging of disliked body areas, and social anxiety or avoidance).

Abstract:
Dermal and epidermal calcifications in the breast are extremely common and are typically benign, of no clinical significance, and are unrelated to breast cancer. If the radiologist attempts to do a mammographically guided needle localization for surgical excisional biopsy of calcifications that are not recognized to be in the dermis, it is possible that the patient may proceed to surgical biopsy with no calcifications seen in the excised specimen. Therefore, it is important to recognize dermal calcifications as such at the time of screening or diagnostic imaging. This chapter reviews the key imaging and clinical features of skin calcifications that may be encountered either incidentally on breast imaging or on diagnostic imaging when a patient has been recalled from screening for grouped calcifications. Topics discussed include obtaining tangent views to accurately diagnose skin calcifications, as well as how to recognize calcifications on tomosynthesis.

Abstract:
A circumscribed mass is a mass with margins demonstrating a sharp demarcation between the lesion and surrounding tissue. On mammography, at least 75% of the margin must be well defined in order for the mass to qualify as circumscribed. Multiple circumscribed masses may be seen unilaterally or bilaterally and can be seen on up to 1.7% of screening mammograms. After mammography, these masses may need to be further evaluated with ultrasound and correlated with clinical information. This chapter, appearing in the section on asymmetry, mass, and distortion, reviews the key imaging and clinical features, imaging protocols and pitfalls, differential diagnoses, and management recommendations for multiple circumscribed masses. Topics discussed include cysts, fibroadenomas, oil cysts, metastases, lymph nodes, and neurofibromas.

Abstract:
Non-palpable, surgical breast lesions require image guidance to direct the site of excision. With the widespread adoption of screening mammography and increased identification of non-palpable breast cancers, image guidance is critical to support the surgeon in successful breast-conserving surgery. Pre-operative localization procedures are typically performed under mammography guidance or ultrasound guidance, and less commonly under magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidance. This chapter, appearing in the section on interventions and surgical changes, reviews protocols and pitfalls, pre-/peri-/post-procedure clinical management, and imaging follow-up of pre-operative localization procedures. Topics discussed include mammography-guided, ultrasound-guided, and MRI-guided localization procedures. This chapter also introduces the radioactive seed and radiofrequency identification localization procedures and discusses post-operative specimen radiographs.

Abstract:
Various disorders result from genetically determined abnormalities of enzymes, the metabolic consequences of which affect the development or functioning of the nervous system. The range of metabolic disturbances is wide, as is the resultant range of clinical syndromes. Although most occur in children, some can present in adult life, and increasing numbers of affected children survive into adult life. In some, specific treatments are possible or are being developed. The last 20 years has seen a considerable expansion in our understanding of the genetic and metabolic basis for many neurological conditions. Particular clinical presentations of neurometabolic disorders include ataxias, movement disorders, childhood epilepsies, or peripheral neuropathy. Detailed coverage of the entire range of inherited metabolic diseases of the nervous system is available in other texts (Brett 1997; Scriver et al. 2001; Menkes et al. 2005).Treatment is possible for some metabolic diseases. For instance, the devastating neurological effects of phenylketonuria have been recognized for many years. Neonatal screening for this disorder and dietary modification in the developed world has removed phenylketonuria from the list of important causes of serious neurological disability in children. This success has led to new challenges in the management of the adult with phenylketonuria and unexpected and devastating effect of the disorder on the unborn child of an untreated Phenylketonuria mother. More recently Biotinidase deficiency has been recognized as an important and easily treatable cause of serious neurological disease usually presenting with early onset drug resistant seizures. This and some other neurometabolic diseases can be identified on neonatal blood screening although a full range of screening is not yet routine in the United Kingdom. More disorders are likely to be picked up at an earlier asymptomatic stage as the sophistication of screening tests increases (Wilcken et al. 2003; Bodamer et al. 2007).Although individual metabolic disorders are rare, collectively such disorders are relatively common. In reality most clinicians will see an individual condition only rarely in a career. Furthermore, patients with certain rare conditions are often concentrated in specialist referral centres, further reducing the exposure of general and paediatric neurologists to these disorders. A recent study into progressive intellectual and neurological deterioration, PIND, gives some information about the relative frequency and distribution of some childhood neurodegenerative diseases in the United Kingdom (Verity et al. 2000; Devereux et al. 2004). Although primarily designed to identify any childhood cases of variant Creutzfeldt- Jakob disease, the study also provided much information about the distribution of neurometabolic disease in children in the United Kingdom. The commonest five causes of progressive intellectual and neurological deterioration over 5 years were Sanfilippo syndrome, 41 cases, adrenoleukodystrophy, 32 cases, late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuschinosis, 32 cases, mitochondrial cytopathy, 30 cases, and Rett syndrome, 29 cases. Notably, geographical foci of these disorders were also found and correlate with high rate of consanguinity in some local populations.

Abstract:
This chapter gives a deeper understanding of screening, and of the diverse consequences it brings. It illustrates the overdetection problem with reference to mammography breast screening programmes, and explains the ‘popularity paradox’ that this leads to. In the early days, the simplistic notion that screening must automatically be beneficial meant that people only asked ‘why are we not doing it?’ Later scientific challenges brought a new question, ‘How do we tell if screening succeeds in reducing risk?’ This served well as a driving force for better evaluation, but it ignored the need to assess harmful consequences. Growing experience has revealed the need to ask ‘what are all the consequences?’ Different observers see some consequences more starkly than others depending on their viewpoint. This chapter explains why it is important to consider a complete overview of an entire programme and to recognise that overdetection, overtreatment and underdetection, are inevitable features even when screening is delivered to a high quality.

Although it is conventional, and perhaps logical, to regard the avant-garde and the commercial cinemas separately, major new developments in each arose concurrently in the USA during the Second World War and, to some extent, in response to it. The dark Hollywood trend that was retrospectively dubbed film noir could be seen, as Paul Arthur and David James have observed, as an industrial form of an equally dark trend in the new genre of art cinema that came to be known as the trance film: “both modes feature a somnambulist protagonist who enters a menacing, often incomprehensible environment in a search for sexual, social, or legal identity, and both states are characterized by the same deadened affect, increased capacity for absorbing or inflicting violence, iconographies of entrapment, and the dissolution of geographic boundaries.”

Abstract:
According to Rudolf Arnheim, “much sculpture lacks the essential quality of life, namely, motion.” This is why, no doubt, marble statues and plaster casts played such an important role in the works of early photographers of the late 1830s and 1840s, who had to cope with long exposure times. Given this perspective, what can be said about the relation between sculpture and film, a medium often first and foremost characterized by motion? This book deals with a wide range of magical, mystical, cultural, historical, formal, and phenomenological interactions between the two media. Apart from the contrast between stillness and movement, sculpture and film can be seen as opposites in other ways. Whereas sculpture is an artistic practice that involves not only static but also material, three-dimensional, and durable objects, the cinema produces kinetic, immaterial, two-dimensional, and volatile images.

Abstract:
Introduction: Cannabis use in pregnancy is related to developmental and mental disorders. The acknowledgement of prenatal exposure frequently depends on the mother’s report, which can often be omitted. There exists little description in the literature of the different methods to detect the use of cannabis during pregnancy. Moreover, nowadays there is no standardized screening available. Objectives: The objective is to analyze the different methods of prenatal screening of cannabis during pregnancy. Methods: A systematic review of studies on the methods of screening of cannabis use during pregnancy and neonates was carried out in PubMed in July 2020 in English, French and Spanish including the last 10 years with the keywords: screening, test, detection, analysis, urine, blood, hair, meconium, lactation, milk, cannabis, marijuana, THC, pregnancy, pregnant, perinatal and prenatal. Results: 107 studies were analyzed, 52 studies included and 55 excluded. Urine toxicology is the most accurate method for maternal testing and depends on chronicity of use, since its duration varies from 2-3 days in occasional users to several weeks in chronic users. Neonatal meconium and umbilical cord tissue indicates fetal exposure to cannabinoids during second and third trimester, being cord tissue more rapidly available than meconium. Neonatal hair indicates third trimester exposure and it is less sensitive than meconium. Maternal serum and hair can also be used to assess cannabis use, being serum affected by chronicity with shorter half-life than urine, and hair less accurate than other drugs of abuse, lasting several weeks positive. To analyze the samples it typically involves a cleanup pretreatment, gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS), enzyme-linked inmunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) and/or an immunoassay screening and a liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) confirmatory method. Conclusions: Standardized prenatal screening of cannabis during pregnancy using analytical methods for drug detection should be established to overcome the heterogeneity and improve clinical practice.

During 2018-2020 the following genetic sources have been selected: the Polish variety Parus (k-3371) as a semi-early ripened source for plant tallness, high growth tempo and high green mass productivity; the variety Puissant (k-2170) as a source for plant tallness, high seed productivity and seed protein content; the variety SV 01060 (k-2193) as a source for plant tallness, moderate period of ripening, high green mass productivity, seed protein content and their size; the lines Tromusillo-2 (k-3276), W 72 (k-2936), W 105 (k-2933), No. 1004 (k-3913) and the breeding line 07-20-240-2384-3 as sources for tolerance to virus diseases; the breeding line 11-11-02-2-4-3 as a source for high seed and green mass productivity; the hybrid Borluta x Zhitomirskii (k-3592) as a source for plant tallness and moderate period of ripening; k-3915 as a source for moderate period of ripening and high seed productivity.
