Watching television while eating and eating from larger portion sizes of food are factors that have been found to independently increase food intake. When combined, these factors may further enhance consumption. This investigation, using a 4 × 2 × 2 mixed factorial design, with a between-subjects factor of order of conditions and within-subjects factors of television watching (NO TV and TV) and...

Salmonella spp. are bacteria that cause salmonellosis, a common form of foodborne illness with major impact on human health and huge financial losses in poultry industry. The incidence of notified cases of salmonellosis has declined from a peak of 24 per 100,000 in 2009 to 20.4 reported cases per 100,000 population in 2013, with S. enteritidis and S. typhimurium being the most commonly reported...

We study the centraliser of locally compact group extensions of er-godic probability preserving transformations. New methods establishing ergodicity of group extensions are introduced, and new examples of squashable and non-coalescent group extensions are constructed. Smooth versions of some of the constructions are also given. §0 Introduction Let T be an ergodic probability preserving transfor...

To the Editor: Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has emerged as an important nosocomial pathogen, especially in debilitated and immunocompro-mised persons (1). However, comparatively little is known of the epidemiology of this bacterium, and sources and routes of transmission of S. mal-tophilia are not well understood. The bacterium is widely distributed in the environment, including in plant rhi-zo...

Consumption of low levels egg already can evoke harmful physiological responses in humans those allergic to eggs. By detection food products, using Egg ELISA kits determine its unintended presence, producers respond avoid potential safety or quality risks their products. Selection an kit fit for the issue at hand is challenging due to, amongst others, lack information on assay performances with...

Poor wastewater management that results from a lack of appropriate sanitation infrastructure contributes to increasing health risks in urban areas in Côte d'Ivoire. We assessed the health risks associated with the use of wastewater for watering salad destined for human consumption, to help local authorities in developing appropriate risk mitigation measures for Yamoussoukro, the political capit...

INTRODUCTION We present a novel airway simulation tool that recreates the dynamic challenges associated with emergency airways. The Suction-Assisted Laryngoscopy Assisted Decontamination (SALAD) simulation system trains providers to use suction to manage emesis and bleeding complicating intubation. METHODS We modified a standard difficult-airway mannequin head (Nasco, Ft. Atkinson, WI) with h...
