    Abstract Twinning in cattle is infrequent and usually undesired. It can result in an increased occurrence of abortion and dystocia, reduced calf survival and a high likelihood of freemartinism in mixed-sex twins. Twin gestations are also commonly associated with the formation of placental vascular anastomoses (PVA) between twins. Through PVA they share blood, hormones (leading to freemartinism in mixed sex twins) and hematopoietic stem cells, which are the progenitors of white blood cells. The sharing of stem cells between twins can result in leukochimeric twin sets. These are twins that have white blood cells derived from both self and the co-twin owing to the fetal migration of hematopoietic stem cells from the extraembryonic mesoderm of the yolk sac to final sites like bone marrow and thymus. This study examined the degree to which this leukochimerism changes with age. DNA was extracted from hair bulbs containing mesenchymal dermal papilla to determine the individual's true genotype and blood samples were obtained at six time points from 1 week to 8 months of age to assess leukochimerism. Samples were genotyped using a medium density SNP chip, and quantitative estimates of allele frequency were determined using SNPs for which members of a twin set had alternative homozygous genotypes. The results indicate statistically significant changes in the proportion of self and co-twin with age and suggest that by 2-4 months of age the genotypic mix in white blood cells represents the hematopoetic stem cell population resident in the individual (i.e. permanently found in thymus and bone marrow).

  4. Article ; Online: Exploring Perceptions and Approaches of Registered Managers Regarding Clinical Safety in Care Homes in the UK

    Abstract Context: Around 400,000 people currently live in care homes with increasing complexity of care needs and comorbidities. Despite this, there is a paucity of research that asks questions about how the care and clinical safety of this vulnerable population are managed. Objective: The aim of this research was to understand how registered care home managers approach clinical safety and what they feel helps or hinders them in this. Methods: The research took a Heideggerian interpretative phenomenological approach, embracing the closeness of the researcher to the participants and the subject matter to uncover rich and detailed findings. Five registered managers of care homes owned by one provider participated in semi-structured interviews between March and May 2020. Three of the interviews took place in the managers’ care homes, and, due to coronavirus restrictions, two were undertaken via video conferencing software. Findings: Thematic analysis of the data generated unexpected findings demonstrating the significant impact on clinical safety in care homes caused not by the managers themselves, but by external forces, including regulation, shortcomings in the structure of the health and social care system in the UK and complex relationships between care homes and other agencies. Limitations: The strengths (e.g., in-depth data) and limitations (e.g., only including care homes in one area) of this phenomenological qualitative study are discussed. Implications: The findings led to recommendations that further research and reviews should be undertaken urgently to understand these factors in more detail. This would provide valuable guidance to inform system-wide reform to ensure better clinical safety for care home residents.

    Abstract Multiple birth in dairy cattle is a detrimental trait both economically for producers and for animal health. Genetics of twinning is complex and has led to several quantitative trait loci regions being associated with increased twinning. To identify variants associated with this trait, calving records from 2 time periods were used to estimate daughter averages for twinning for Holstein bulls. Multiple analyses were conducted and compared including GWAS, genomic prediction, and gene set enrichment analysis for pathway detection. Although pathway analysis did not yield many congruent pathways of interest between data sets, it did indicate two of interest. Both pathways have ties to the strong candidate region on BTA11 from the genome-wide association analysis across data sets. This region does not overlap with previously identified quantitative trait loci regions for twinning or ovulation rate in cattle. The strongest associated SNPs were upstream from 2 candidate genes LHCGR and FSHR, which are involved in folliculogenesis. Genomic prediction showed a moderate correlation accuracy (0.43) when predicting genomic breeding values for bulls with estimates from calving records from 2010 to 2016. Future analysis of the region on BTA11 and the relation of the candidate genes could improve this accuracy.

    Abstract Spontaneous eye blinking is gaining popularity as a proxy for higher cognitive functions, as it is readily modulated by both environmental demands and internal processes. Prior studies were impoverished in sample size, sex representation and age distribution, making it difficult to establish a complete picture of the behavior. Here we present eye-tracking data from a large cohort of normative participants (

    Abstract A selective review of the negative symptoms of schizophrenia is an appropriate article to result from the festschrift honoring William T. Carpenter Jr, as he has made substantial contributions in this area. This review assesses progress in 3 areas in which he has been an important investigator: the distinction between primary vs secondary negative symptoms; the appropriate design for treatment trials; and the nosology of negative symptoms.
