    Abstract Congenital eyelid imbrication syndrome is a rare eyelid finding where a long upper lid overlaps the lower lid when the eyes are closed. To date, congenital eyelid imbrication syndrome has been described in the literature less than 10 times. We present a case of congenital eyelid imbrication syndrome in a patient with trisomy 21 and tetralogy of Fallot on a prostaglandin E infusion to maintain a patent ductus arteriosus prior to definitive heart surgery. While on the infusion, the patient developed peripheral edema and flushing due to vasodilation. This coincided with eyelid swelling, conjunctival chemosis, and eversion of the eyelids. Upon cessation of the prostaglandin E1 infusion, his eyelid eversion resolved.

    Abstract The high-x data from the ZEUS Collaboration are used to extract parton density distributions of the proton deep in the perturbative regime of QCD. The data primarily constrain the up-quark valence distribution and new results are presented on its x dependence as well as on the momentum carried by the up quark. The results were obtained using Bayesian analysis methods which can serve as a model for future parton density extractions.

    Abstract Objective: Catholic hospitals restrict access to comprehensive reproductive health services that could impact patient outcomes. We sought to determine whether delivery at a Catholic hospital is associated with shorter pregnancy intervals among patients insured by Medicaid in Illinois.
    Study design: We used Illinois Medicaid data files to conduct a retrospective cohort study. We used billing codes to identify deliveries in 2010 and 2011 and classified each by a hospital of delivery, maternal age, race/ethnicity, and residential zip code. We calculated the interval from index birth to subsequent conception using an established method and used Cox proportional hazards regression to compare the rate of subsequent pregnancy between enrollees who delivered in Catholic vs non-Catholic hospitals, adjusting for individual characteristics. We also computed differences in the rates of conception within 6-, 12-, and 18-month intervals.
    Results: We identified 96,293 index births and 18,627 subsequent conceptions. Twenty-eight percent (26,775) of index births occurred in a Catholic hospital. Women who delivered in a Catholic hospital had a 12% greater risk of conception in the following 18 months (HR 1.12, 95% CI 1.09-1.16) after adjusting for age, race/ethnicity, and rural residence. At 18 months, 23.9% of enrollees delivering in a Catholic hospital had become pregnant as compared to 21.2% for enrollees delivering in a non-Catholic hospital (difference of 2.6%, 95% CI 1.8-3.6).
    Conclusion: Illinois Medicaid enrollees who deliver at Catholic hospitals have an increased risk of short-interval pregnancy. As the market share of Catholic hospitals grows, providers must work with patients to acknowledge and address these potential impacts on reproductive health outcomes and policies must change to promote equitable access.
    Implications: Delivery at a Catholic hospital is associated with an increased risk of short-interval pregnancy. Further attention from providers, researchers, and policymakers alike, is necessary to identify the mechanisms through which these differences manifest such that effective interventions can be developed.

    Abstract Recent discussions in the sport and exercise science community have focused on the appropriate use and reporting of effect sizes. Sport and exercise scientists often analyze repeated-measures data, from which mean differences are reported. To aid the interpretation of these data, standardized mean differences (SMD) are commonly reported as a description of effect size. In this manuscript, we hope to alleviate some confusion. First, we provide a philosophical framework for conceptualizing SMDs; that is, by dichotomizing them into two groups: magnitude-based and signal-to-noise SMDs. Second, we describe the statistical properties of SMDs and their implications. Finally, we provide high-level recommendations for how sport and exercise scientists can thoughtfully report raw effect sizes, SMDs, or other effect sizes for their own studies. This conceptual framework provides sport and exercise scientists with the background necessary to make and justify their choice of an SMD.

    Abstract Food waste is a major issue that is increasingly affecting our environment. More than one-third of food is wasted, resulting in over $400 billion in losses to the U.S. economy. While composting and other small recycling practices are encouraged from person-to-person, it is not enough to balance the net loss of 80 million tons per year. Currently, one of the most promising routes for reducing food waste is through microbial fermentation, which can convert the waste into valuable bioproducts. Among the compounds produced from fermentation, 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) has gained interest recently due to its molecular structure as a building block for many other derivatives used in perfumes, synthetic rubber, fumigants, antifreeze agents, fuel additives, and pharmaceuticals. Waste feedstocks, such as food waste, are a potential source of renewable energy due to their lack of cost and availability. Food waste also possesses microbial requirements for growth such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and more. However, food waste is highly inconsistent and the variability in composition may hinder its ability to be a stable source for bioproducts such as 2,3-BDO. This current study focuses specifically on post-consumer food waste and how 2,3-BDO can be produced through a non-model organism,

    Abstract Ingestion of microplastics has been documented across marine species, but exposure remains sparsely described in many seabird species. We assess microplastic (between 0.2 and 5.0 mm) ingestion in two Northwestern Atantic - breeding species for which exposure to microplastics is entirely or largely undescribed: Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) and Roseate Terns (S. dougallii). Common Tern microplastic load did not vary between life stages (p = 0.590); microplastic load did differ in Common Tern adults breeding at two of three colonies explored (p = 0.002), with no other regional differences observed. Roseate Terns ingested significantly more microplastics than Common Terns (p = 0.007). Our results show that microplastic ingestion by terns varies regionally and interspecifically, but not by life stage, trends potentially explained by dietary differences. We provide the first quantification of microplastic fiber ingestion by terns in the Northwestern Atlantic and identify trophic dynamics related to microplastic ingestion, representing an important step toward understanding the risk of the pollutant to terns across regions, as well as toward the use of terns as potential bioindicators of microplastics.
