Classroom and Learning Space Design
Greetings to All,
Wanted to ask if you can share any ideas, designs, designations, or levels that you currently use for classrooms and learning spaces. Do you have guidelines for the physical layout of rooms for large and small spaces for lecture, seminar, labs, and collaborative areas. Something you show an architect, or vendor for a new or refurbished space. Currently I am working with a committee to create some guidelines for design.
Also, how did you gather input from faculty on what they were looking for in classrooms?
Thanks and Best Wishes,
Jay Catoggio

Airport project scheduled for summerBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | February 07,2013Work around the runway at the Rutland airport is slated for the summer.
The proposed FY 2014 budget includes $5,360,000 for the expansion of the runway safety area and associated relocation of Airport Road. The project will provide more flat terrain surrounding the runway.
"If a plane lands long — or short — this level turf provides a safe area for the plane to come to a rest with minimal structure damage," said Jason Owen, project manager for the Vermont Agency of Transportation.
The change brings the airport closer to FAA design standards, Owen said, and should help upgrade the airport's safety rating from "fair" to "excellent."
"In a perfect world, in airports like Rutland, they would like 1,000 feet," he said. "That's not practical, but we're going to double what's there. Right now, it's about 300 feet and we're going to make it 600 feet."

Wanming Pagoda
Originally built during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and renovated recently, the Wanming Pagoda is a hexagonal brick structure with seven storeys and is located right on the edge of the river. With flying eaves and a pinnacle roof, it makes for a beautiful reflection in the water.

Fucheng Gate
This is the southern gate into the old town. Behind it, just inside the old town is a square which features a model of a phoenix - a mythical bid from which the town is named. Fenghuang Cheng or Phoenix Town is so called as legend has it that two of these fabulous birds flew over it and found the town so beautiful that they hovered there, reluctant to leave.

Gate Towers and wall
A long part of the old town wall is still standing, stretching for about 400 meters along the south bank of the river. The North Gate Tower is found halfway along its length and the East Gate Tower is found at its eastern point. This tower was built in 1715. The wall used to surround the old town and was 2km in length, 5.7 meters in height and 3.7 meters wide.

I saw a couple of waterwheels in Lijiang, Yunnan, and there's a few along the river here in Fenghuang. These particular ones lie on the north bank near the stepping stones and look like they're part of a mill. There's more upstream.
Tuo Jiang River
Tuo Jiang River, the biggest river within the county, is one of the branches of Wushui River. Originating from Nanshan Gorge of Dusha, Kuhe, it flows through Fenghuang County from west to east, passing nine counties and towns including La'ershan and Fenghuang County, and then plunges into the Wushui River. It is 131 kilometres in length, among which 96.9 kilometres is in Fenghuang County. Tour boats can take you along the river where you'll get the chance to flow down some of weirs. You can watch the boatman pushing the boats up the weirs with the help of rollers underneath - quite an ingenious idea!
Stilt houses along river
These types of house are called Diaojiaolou (Chinese for building with hanging legs). The design keeps the buildings safe from the spring floods. These houses really define the old town and give it its "picturesque-ness". You can witness the daily goings-on outside them. More photos can be found in my travelogues.

City gate
There were once four gates into the old town. This particular one is the North Gate, I think anyway! It's located along the road that leads to the large Fenghuang Bridge.

Another waterwheel
This waterwheel is located just upstream from the ugly Fenghuang Bridge, just in front of a series of weirs. No idea why or what reason it's used for. Just another picture opportunity!
Fenghuang Bridge
This is the main road bridge through the old town and is rather ugly compared to its surroundings. Anyway, it does offer great views along the river.
Stepping stone & wooden bridge
A couple of other ways to cross the river, other than the conventional bridges, are by taking these stepping stones (which are actually concrete posts) and a rather precarious wooden bridge.
Hong Qiao Bridge
This bridge spans the Tuo River and is the main sight within the old town. It's a covered bridge and is full of shops. Make sure you see it at night as its illuminated.

Salmonella infections: An update on epidemiology, management, and preventionFlor M. Sánchez-Vargas | Maisam A. Abu-El-Haija | Oscar G. Gómez-Duarte
Volume 9, Issue 6, November 2011, Pages 263-277
Salmonella species are a group of Gram-negative enterobacteria and known human pathogens in developing as well as industrialized countries. Despite significant advances in sanitation, provision of potable water, and highly controlled food chain surveillance, transmission of Salmonella spp. continues to affect communities, preferentially children, worldwide. This review summarizes updated concepts on typhoidal and non-typhoidal Salmonella infections, starting with a historical perspective that implicates typhoid Salmonella as a significant human pathogen since ancient times. We describe the epidemiology of this pathogen with emphasis on the most recent non-typhoidal Salmonella outbreaks in industrialized countries and continued outbreaks of typhoid Salmonella in underserved countries. An overview of clinical aspects of typhoid and non-typhoid infections in developing and industrialized countries, respectively, is provided, followed by a description on current treatment concepts and challenges treating multidrug-resistant Salmonella infections. We conclude with prevention recommendations, and recent research studies on vaccine prevention. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Schistosomiasis in travellers and migrantsJan Clerinx | Alfons Van Gompel
Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2011, Pages 6-24
Schistosomiasis is a tropical parasitic disease caused by blood-dwelling fluke worms of the genus Schistosoma whose infective stages, the cercariae, are amplified through mollusks acting as intermediate hosts. People are infected when exposed to fresh water containing cercariae that penetrate the skin. There are however considerable differences in intensity of infection and morbidity, depending on the pattern of exposure and the infective species. In travellers, schistosomiasis differs substantially from infection in endemic populations in many aspects: geography, morbidity, treatment and prevention. In migrants, schistosomiasis manifests itself in a way more akin to what is seen in endemic populations. In this paper we will review the specific issues associated with schistosomiasis in travellers and migrants, with emphasis on the acute disease manifestations in non-immune persons, and on neuroschistosomiasis as a potential severe complication. We discuss new trends in diagnosis and treatment with respect to the specific disease stage, and summarize precautionary measures and novel ways to prevent Schistosoma infection in travellers. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Chikungunya and dengue autochthonous cases in Europe, 2007-2012Danilo Tomasello | Patricia Schlagenhauf
Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2013, Pages 274-284
A large number of autochthonous cases of dengue fever (2237) and chikungunya fever (231) occurred in Europe (Italy, France, Croatia, Madeira) during the period covered by our analysis (2007-2012). In all dengue outbreaks, the circulating strain, identified by means of molecular analysis, was the DENV-1 strain. Dengue and chikungunya are infectious diseases that often result in hospitalizations and are associated with high public health costs. The dengue epidemic on the island of Madeira resulted in 122 hospitalizations. Only one death (from chikungunya) occurred but long-term sequelae were described after the chikungunya outbreak in Emilia-Romagna, Italy. Vector control is key to reducing the impact of these diseases. During the chikungunya outbreak in Italy and the dengue outbreak in Madeira, appropriate measures for the control of mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus) were effectively implemented. The effectiveness of these measures (reducing the number of breeding sites, application of pesticides and insecticides, public health education) was shown in the context of these real-life outbreaks. All the pre-requisites for autochthonous transmission of both dengue virus and chikungunya virus (vectors, viremic returned travellers, climatic conditions) are present in Europe. Constant surveillance is imperative. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Current rabies vaccines and prophylaxis schedules: Preventing rabies before and after exposureM. J. Warrell
Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2012, Pages 1-15
Travellers are probably the largest group in the general population to receive rabies pre-exposure prophylaxis. The dangerous consequences of the unavailability of rabies immune globulin in many countries could be ameliorated if pre-exposure rabies vaccination were practised more widely, especially in children, living in dog rabies enzootic countries. The WHO has recommended several different regimens for post-exposure prophylaxis, while individual countries decide on protocols for local use. Intramuscular regimens are expensive and waste vaccine. Although failure to receive vaccine is usually the due to the cost, the economical potential of intradermal vaccination has still not been realised 19 years after its introduction. The currently recommended 2-site intradermal post-exposure regimen is not economical for use in rural areas where 80% of Indian rabies deaths occur. Most countries using it demand higher potency vaccine, indicating that they do not have complete confidence in the method. This intradermal regimen has only been used where immunoglobulin is likely to be available for severely bitten patients. Increased intradermal doses are sometimes used for selected patients. Provision of economical rabies prophylaxis can be improved. Decisions to change recommendations should take account of the immunological, financial, practical and logistical aspects of dog bite treatment in remote areas. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

An observational study on the current distribution of visceral leishmaniasis in different geographical zones of Iran and implication to health policyMehdi Mohebali | Gholam Hossein Edrissian | Mohammad Reza Shirzadi | Behnaz Akhoundi | Homa Hajjaran | Zabih Zarei | Soheila Molaei | Iraj Sharifi | Setareh Mamishi | Hossein Mahmoudvand | Vahid Torabi | Abdolali Moshfe | Abdolali Malmasi | Mohammad Hossein Motazedian | Mahdi Fakhar
Volume 9, Issue 2, March 2011, Pages 67-74
Visceral leishmaniasis is one of the most important parasitic diseases that is endemic in some parts of Iran. This study aimed to determine current distribution of visceral leishmaniasis in four distinct geographical zones of Iran. A cross-sectional study was conducted using direct agglutination test (DAT) on 9396 and 2559 serum samples collected from humans and domestic dogs, respectively during the period of 2007 through 2009. Altogether, 403 (4.3%) out of 9396 human serum samples collected from 4 distinct geographical locations showed anti-Leishmania antibodies with titers ≥1:3200. Physical examinations performed on 142 sero-positive cases with anti-Leishmania antibodies at titers of 1: 3200 to 1:102400 among whom fever (94.4%), paleness (67.6%) and hepato-splenomegaly (42.2%) were the predominant clinical signs and symptoms. The highest sero-prevalence rate (1.55%) was found in children ≤5 years old. Out of 2559 serum samples collected from domestic dogs, 212 (8.3%) were DAT positive (≥1:320). Leishmania infantum is the principal causative agent of the disease was isolated from both infected humans and dogs in Iran. Our findings indicate that Mediterranean visceral leishmaniasis with different distribution occurs in different geographical locations of Iran. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
The efficacy of repellents against Aedes, Anopheles, Culex and Ixodes spp. - A literature reviewEleonora Lupi | Christoph Hatz | Patricia Schlagenhauf
Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2013, Pages 374-411
Background Travellers are confronted with a variety of vector-borne threats. Is one type of repellent effective against all biting vectors? The aim of this review is to examine the literature, up to December 31st, 2012, regarding repellent efficacy. Methods We searched PubMed for relevant papers. Repellents of interest were DEET, Icaridin as well as other piperidine-derived products (SS220), Insect Repellent (IR) 3535 (ethyl-butylacetyl-amino-propionat, EBAAP) and plant-derived products, including Citriodora (para-menthane-3,8- diol). As vectors, we considered the mosquito species Anopheles, Aedes and Culex as well as the tick species Ixodes. We selected only studies evaluating the protective efficacy of repellents on human skin. Results We reviewed a total of 102 publications. Repellents were evaluated regarding complete protection time or as percentage efficacy [%] in a time interval. We found no standardized study for tick bite prevention. Conclusions Regarding Aedes, DEET at concentration of 20% or more, showed the best efficacy providing up to 10 h protection. Citriodora repellency against this mosquito genus was lower compared to the other products. Also between subspecies a difference could be observed: Ae. aegypti proved more difficult to repel than Ae. Albopictus. Fewer studies have been conducted on mosquito species Anopheles and Culex. The repellency profile against Anopheles species was similar for the four principal repellents of interest, providing on average 4-10 h of protection. Culex mosquitoes are easier to repel and all four repellents provided good protection. Few studies have been conducted on the tick species Ixodes. According to our results, the longest protection against Ixodes scapularis was provided by repellents containing IR3535, while DEET and commercial products containing Icaridin or PMD showed a better response than IR3535 against Ixodes ricinus. Many plant-based repellents provide only short duration protection. Adding vanillin 5% to plant-based repellents and to DEET repellents increased the protection by about 2 h. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Disaster relief in post-earthquake Haiti: Unintended consequences of humanitarian volunteerismKathleen Jobe
Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2011, Pages 1-5
This article provides an overview of US humanitarian relief efforts in Haiti following the earthquake on January 12, 2010. Humanitarian aid arrived rapidly from many sources and was largely provided by organized and skilled humanitarian volunteers. There are however multiple impacts on the existing health care systems, as well as the pharmaceutical and medical supply chain created by massive relief efforts involving personnel, medicines, supplies and equipment that should be considered even in the immediate post-disaster period. Additionally the consequences of short-term medical missions by secular and non-secular NGOs should be considered carefully both in the post-disaster period and as ongoing support to underserved populations. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Travel implications of emerging coronaviruses: SARS and MERS-CoVJaffar A. Al-Tawfiq | Alimuddin Zumla | Ziad A. Memish
Volume 12, Issue 5, January 2014, Pages 422-428
© 2014 Elsevier Ltd.The emergence of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and of the Middle East Syndrome Cornavirus (MERS-CoV) caused widespread fear and concern for their potential threat to global health security. There are similarities and differences in the epidemiology and clinical features between these two diseases. The origin of SARS-COV and MERS-CoV is thought to be an animal source with subsequent transmission to humans. The identification of both the intermediate host and the exact route of transmission of MERS-CoV is crucial for the subsequent prevention of the introduction of the virus into the human population. So far MERS-CoV had resulted in a limited travel-associated human cases with no major events related to the Hajj.
Mobile phones and malaria: Modeling human and parasite travelCaroline O. Buckee | Amy Wesolowski | Nathan N. Eagle | Elsa Hansen | Robert W. Snow
Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2013, Pages 15-22
Human mobility plays an important role in the dissemination of malaria parasites between regions of variable transmission intensity. Asymptomatic individuals can unknowingly carry parasites to regions where mosquito vectors are available, for example, undermining control programs and contributing to transmission when they travel. Understanding how parasites are imported between regions in this way is therefore an important goal for elimination planning and the control of transmission, and would enable control programs to target the principal sources of malaria. Measuring human mobility has traditionally been difficult to do on a population scale, but the widespread adoption of mobile phones in low-income settings presents a unique opportunity to directly measure human movements that are relevant to the spread of malaria. Here, we discuss the opportunities for measuring human mobility using data from mobile phones, as well as some of the issues associated with combining mobility estimates with malaria infection risk maps to meaningfully estimate routes of parasite importation.
Pediatric travelers visiting friends and relatives (VFR) abroad: Illnesses, barriers and pre-travel recommendationsBrett Hendel-Paterson | Stephen J. Swanson
Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2011, Pages 192-203
Global mobility has shown a steady rise in recent years, with increased immigration and international travel. The VFR traveler is a traveler whose primary purpose of travel is to visit friends and relatives (VFR), where there is a gradient of risk between home and destination. Children are more likely to be VFR travelers than adults. Pediatric VFR travelers have higher risks for certain infectious travel-related illnesses and face multiple barriers in receiving comprehensive pre-travel care. This review focuses on the current state of knowledge of the pediatric VFR traveler, including epidemiological risks, barriers to adequate pre-travel services, and specific recommendations for disease prevention. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Malaria in Greece: Historical and current reflections on a re-emerging vector borne diseaseKostas Danis | Annick Lenglet | Maria Tseroni | Agoritsa Baka | Sotiris Tsiodras | Stefanos Bonovas
Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2013, Pages 8-14
Between 2009 and September 2012, locally acquired cases of P. vivax infection were reported in Greece, mostly from the agricultural area of Evrotas, Lakonia (n = 48), but also sporadically from five other regions (n = 14), suggesting that conditions in these areas are favourable for local transmission of malaria. The risk of re-establishment of malaria in Greece will depend on whether the receptivity for disease transmission (presence of the mosquito vector and adequate ecological and climatic factors) and the vulnerability (importation of the parasite in human reservoirs or presence of infected mosquito vectors) continue to be present in the country. The continuous implementation of the integrated preparedness and response plan for malaria that covers all aspects from surveillance and laboratory diagnosis to vector control and the reorganization of public health infrastructures are necessary to prevent transmission and control the disease in the long term. However, the impact of the severe economic crisis on current health-care, public health infrastructures and vector control constitute a great challenge for the future. The current threat of renewed sustained local malaria transmission in Greece (and thus in continental Europe) merits an international response, including financial and technical support, from European and international stakeholders.
Travelers visiting friends and relatives (VFR) and imported infectious disease: Travelers, immigrants or both? A comparative analysisB. Monge-Maillo | F. F. Norman | J. A. Pérez-Molina | M. Navarro | M. Díaz-Menéndez | R. López-Vélez
Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2014, Pages 88-94
Introduction Immigrants are increasingly traveling back to their countries of origin to visit friends and relatives (VFRs). They account for an important proportion of all international travelers and have a high risk for certain travel-related infectious diseases. Methods We describe the spectrum of infectious diseases diagnosed in a cohort of 351 VFRs and compare them with two previously published cohorts: of immigrants and travelers attended at our centre. Results The most frequent diagnoses observed among VFRs were typical travel-associated infections such as malaria (75 [21.4%]), traveler's diarrhea 17 [4.8%]), intestinal parasites (16 [4.6%]) and dengue (11 [3.1%]). Asymptomatic chronic infectious diseases, such as latent tuberculosis (56 [16%]), chronic viral hepatitis (18 [5.1%]) and filariasis (18 [5.1%]), probably acquired before migration, were also observed. Conclusions VFRs should thus be approached from two perspectives as concerns imported infectious diseases: as travelers and as immigrants. Etiological studies focusing on the presenting complaint as well as systematic screening for other latent infectious diseases should be performed. © 2013 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
Plasmodium knowlesi in a traveller returning to New ZealandAnwar Hoosen | Marc T M Shaw
Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2011, Pages 144-148
The recent discovery that Plasmodium knowlesi causes malaria in human populations, established it as the fifth species of plasmodium that may do so. A case of P. knowlesi malaria is described in a helicopter pilot from New Zealand, who became ill after returning from recurring visits to Malaysian Borneo in June 2010. His P. knowlesi infection was not detected using microscopic examination and a rapid diagnostic test for malaria, but was confirmed by both PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and sequence analysis showing homology with the ribosomal RNA gene for P. knowlesi. He responded rapidly to treatment with artemether & lumefantrine combination. The evolution of a rapid diagnostic kit to diagnose P. knowlesi is needed, for early identification and appropriate anti-malarial therapy of suspect cases are both critical in the prevention of the potentially life-threatening disease through P. knowlesi. Clinicians need to consider knowlesi infection in the differential diagnosis in recent-onset febrile travellers to areas of forestation in Southeast Asia. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
The viruses of Australia and the risk to touristsDavid W. Smith | David J. Speers | John S. MacKenzie

Australia is a climatically diverse country varying from a tropical climate in the north to arid central desert and grassland regions, and to temperate climates in the south. There are many viral infections found in Australia that are common to developed countries worldwide, but this article will focus on those that pose a special risk for travellers to Australia, especially the mosquito-borne viruses. The commonest are the members of the alphavirus genus, particularly Ross River virus and Barmah Forest virus, which cause predominantly arthralgia with or without fever or rash. Less frequent but more serious illness is seen with the encephalitic flaviviruses, Murray Valley encephalitis virus, and the Kunjin strain of West Nile virus. In addition dengue occurs intermittently on the northern part of Queensland, and in recent years Japanese encephalitis virus has been found in the Torres Strait Islands and the tip of far north Queensland. Also of interest, but with a much lower risk, are the bat-borne viruses, Hendra virus and Australian bat lyssavirus, that have caused a small number of human infections. However, it is important to remember that most tourists pass through other countries in the Asia/Pacific region on their way to and from Australia and may therefore have acquired infections prior to or after leaving Australia.

The 2014 FIFA World Cup: Communicable disease risks and advice for visitors to Brazil - A review from the Latin American Society for Travel Medicine (SLAMVI)Viviana Gallego | Griselda Berberian | Susana Lloveras | Sergio Verbanaz | Tania S S Chaves | Tomas Orduna | Alfonso J. Rodriguez-Morales

The next FIFA World Cup will be held in Brazil in June-July 2014. Around 600,000 international visitors and participants (as well over 3 million domestic travelers) are expected. This event will take place in twelve cities. This event poses specific challenges, given its size and the diversity of attendees, including the potential for the transmission of imported or endemic communicable diseases, especially those that have an increased transmission rate as a result of close human proximity, eg, seasonal influenza, measles but also tropical endemic diseases. In anticipation of increased travel, a panel of experts from the Latin American Society for Travel Medicine (SLAMVI) developed the current recommendations regarding the epidemiology and risks of the main communicable diseases in the major potential destinations, recommended immunizations and other preventives measures to be used as a basis for advice for travelers and travel medicine practitioners. Mosquito-borne infections also pose a challenge. Dengue poses a significant risk in all states, including the host cities. Vaccination against yellow fever is recommended except for travelers who will only visit coastal areas. Travelers visiting high-risk areas for malaria (Amazon) should be assessed regarding the need for chemoprophylaxis. Chikunguya fever may be a threat for Brazil, given the presence of Aedes aegypti, vector of dengue, and the possibility of travelers bringing the virus with them when attending the event. Advice on the correct timing and use of repellents and other personal protection measures is key to preventing these vector-borne infections. Other important recommendations for travelers should focus on preventing water and food-borne diseases such as hepatitis A, typhoid fever, giardiasis and traveler's diarrhea. Sexually transmitted diseases (STD) should be also mentioned and the use of condoms advocated. This review addresses pre-travel, preventive strategies to reduce the risk of acquiring communicable diseases during a mass gathering such as the World Cup and also reviews the spectrum of endemic infections in Brazil to facilitate the recognition and management of infectious diseases in travelers returning to their countries of origin. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Background Leishmaniasis is a disease caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania. Clinical manifestations of leishmaniasis include cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) and visceral leishmaniasis (VL). About 90% of cases occur in the tropics or subtropics but the disease is also endemic in the Mediterranean area. No systematic analysis on leishmaniasis in travellers visiting endemic areas in Europe is available. Methods Within the European travel medicine network EuroTravNet, we performed a retrospective analysis in travellers who acquired leishmaniasis within Europe diagnosed between 2000 and 2012. Results Forty cases of leishmaniasis (30 CL and 10 VL) were identified; the majority were acquired in Spain (n = 20, 50%), Malta and Italy (each n = 7, 18%). Median age was 48 years (range 1-79). Three of eight (37.5%) of the VL patients were on immunosuppressive therapy. The most frequent reason for travel was tourism (83%). Median duration of travel for patients with CL and VL was 2 weeks with ranges of 1-21 weeks in CL and 1-67 weeks in VL, respectively (P = 0.03). Conclusions Health professionals should include leishmaniasis in the differential diagnosis in patients returning from southern Europe - including short-term travellers - with typical skin lesions or systemic alterations like fever, hepatosplenomegaly and pancytopenia. © 2014 The Authors.

Limbic encephalopathy and central vestibulopathy caused by mefloquine: A case reportRemington L. Nevin
Volume 10, Issue 3, May 2012, Pages 144-151
Mefloquine is a 4-methanolquinoline anti-malarial that in recent years has fallen out of favor for use as chemoprophylaxis against infection with chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria owing in part to growing concerns of side effects and potential neurotoxicity. Despite over 20 years of licensed use, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying mefloquine's neuropsychiatric and physical side effects and the clinical significance of the drug's neurotoxicity have remained poorly understood. In this report, an adverse reaction to mefloquine chemoprophylaxis is described characterized by prodromal symptoms of anxiety with subsequent development of psychosis, short-term memory impairment, confusion and personality change accompanied by complaints of disequilibrium and vertigo, with objective findings of central vestibulopathy. It is posited that these effects represent an idiosyncratic neurotoxic syndrome of progressive limbic encephalopathy and multifocal brainstem injury caused by the drug. This case provides insights into the clinical significance of mefloquine neuronal gap junction blockade and neurotoxicity demonstrated in animal models, points to recommendations for the management of affected patients including diagnostic considerations and appropriate referrals, and highlights critical implications for the continued safe use of the medication. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

The potential for pneumococcal vaccination in Hajj pilgrims: Expert opinionHarunor Rashid | Abdul Razak Abdul Muttalif | Zuraimi Bin Mohamed Dahlan | Samsuridjal Djauzi | Zafar Iqbal | Hj Matnoh Karim | Syed Muhammad Naeem | Terapong Tantawichien | Ricardo Zotomayor | Shilpa Patil | Heinz Josef Schmitt

Hajj is the annual pilgrimage to Mecca in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and is one of the largest mass gathering events in the world. Acute respiratory tract infections are very common during Hajj, primarily as a result of close contact among pilgrims, intense congestion, shared accommodation and air pollution. A number of vaccines are (or have been) recommended for Hajj pilgrims in recent years. Several additional vaccines could significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality at Hajj and should be considered in health recommendations for pilgrims. Pneumococcal vaccines (particularly for those aged >65 years) are widely available, and have been shown to reduce the burden of disease associated with Streptococcus pneumoniae infection. Importantly, a considerable percentage of Hajj pilgrims have pre-existing illnesses or are elderly, both important risk factors for pneumococcal infection. While there are substantial gaps that need to be addressed regarding our knowledge of the exact burden of disease in Hajj pilgrims and the effectiveness of pneumococcal vaccination in this population, S. pneumoniae may be an important cause of illness among this group of travelers. It can be assumed that the majority of pneumococcal serotypes circulating during Hajj are included in the existing pneumococcal vaccines. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Demographics, health and travel characteristics of international travellers at a pre-travel clinic in Marseille, FranceCamille Aubry | Jean Gaudart | Catherine Gaillard | Jean Delmont | Philippe Parola | Philippe Brouqui | Philippe Gautret
Volume 10, Issues 5-6, September 2012, Pages 247-256
With the aim to identify at-risk individuals among a cohort of international travellers, 3442 individuals who sought advice at Marseille travel health centre in 2009 were prospectively included. Demographics, travel characteristics, chronic medical conditions, vaccinations and antimalarial chemoprophylaxis were documented. Chronic medical conditions were reported by 11% of individuals, including hypertension (39%), asthma (20%), thyroid disease (15%) and depression (13%). 4% reported taking a daily medication, and psychotropic and cardiovascular medications were the most commonly used. Older travellers (≥60 years) accounted for 10% of the travellers and the prevalence of chronic medical conditions was 27% in this group. Individuals aged 15 years or less accounted for 13% of the travellers. Age, last minute travel (17%) and neurological and psychiatric diseases were the most frequent factors that influenced Yellow fever vaccination and malaria chemoprophylaxis, with more than one tenth of the travellers reporting at least one risk factor for which adjusted advice may be necessary. Migrants visiting their relatives in their origin country accounted for 14% of travellers and 73% of this group travelled with their family including young children. We demonstrate that a significant proportion of travellers are at-risk (43%) because of their travel conditions (VFR), their age, or their health status, and should be targeted for risk reduction strategies. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

TB transmission on public transportation: A review of published studies and recommendations for contact tracingPaul J. Edelson | M. Phypers
Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2011, Pages 27-31
Setting: The risk of transmission when persons with active tuberculosis travel on buses or trains is uncertain and no recommendations have been published for contact investigations on these conveyances. Design: We conducted a systematic review of the published studies of tuberculosis transmission among bus or train travelers. Results: Twelve published reports were identified, including one retrospective cohort study and eleven contact investigations. One contact investigation involved train travelers and one involved students on a 6 h bus excursion. The remaining nine involved exposures on school buses or in commuter vans. In eight reports, evidence of tuberculosis infection was found in 8.7%-55% of those tested; six of these studies reported identifying 1-24 cases of active tuberculosis. Conclusions: These reports support the need to be alert to the possibility of tuberculosis transmission on buses or trains. However, they do not offer the quantitative estimate of risk needed for defining policy regarding contact tracing for persons exposed on buses or trains. Decisions to carry out contact investigations should take into account the proximity to the index case, duration of exposure, and other risk factors that may affect the infectiousness of the case or the susceptibility of the contact. Additional reports taking these factors into consideration would help clarify the risk of tuberculosis transmission on public transport.
The malaria vaccine-Status quo 2013D. Gray Heppner
Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2013, Pages 2-7
It has been 40 years since David Clyde's landmark induction of sterile immunity against deadly falciparum malaria through immunization by exposure to 1000 irradiated mosquitoes, and the first recombinant Plasmodium falciparum vaccine, RTS,S/AS01, is now in Phase III testing. Interim reports from this largest ever Phase III pediatric trial in Africa show the malaria vaccine decreased clinical and severe disease by 56% and 47% respectively in 5-17 month olds, and by 31% and 26% respectively in infants participating in the Expanded Programme on Immunization. Final data in 2014 will more fully describe the efficacy of RTS,S/AS01 over time against all falciparum malaria cases under a variety of transmission conditions, results essential for decisions on licensure and deployment. Meanwhile, candidate components of a second-generation malaria vaccine are emerging. A field trial of the polymorphic blood stage vaccine AMA-1/AS02 demonstrated no overall efficacy (ve = 17%, P = 0.18), yet a sieve analysis revealed allele-specific efficacy (ve = 64%, P = 0.03) against the vaccine strain, suggesting AMA-1 antigens could be part of a multicomponent vaccine. Initial trials of new antigens include the highly conserved pre-erythrocytic candidate PfCelTOS, a synthetic Plasmodium vivax circumsporozoite antigen VMP-001, and sexual stage vaccines containing antigens from both P. falciparum (Pfs25) and P. vivax (Pvs25) intended to interrupt transmission. Targets for a vaccine to protect against placental malaria, the leading remediable cause of low birth weight infants in Africa, have been identified. Lastly, renewed efforts are underway to develop a practical attenuated-sporozoite vaccine to recapture the promise of David Clyde's experiment.
Consensus building and recommendations based on the available epidemiology of meningococcal disease in Gulf Cooperation Council StatesZiad A. Memish | Atef M. Shibl
Volume 9, Issue 2, March 2011, Pages 60-66
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) States share concerns about meningococcal disease, particularly in association with the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages, which have been connected with outbreaks within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and among contacts of the pilgrims in their countries of origin. Currently, the most prevalent meningococcal serogroup in the GCC States is W-135. Although vaccination with polysaccharide vaccines has protected pilgrims and their close contacts from invasive disease, the potential availability of novel conjugate vaccines, such as the one currently used for vaccination of military personnel in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, prompted an evaluation of disease epidemiology in the region. For several countries, published data on recent epidemiology are not available. We report findings from a meeting of the GCC States Meningitis Study Group, which comprised experts from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Kingdom of Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, the Sultanate of Oman, and the United Arab Emirates. These experts provided an update on epidemiology and current vaccination practices in the GCC States, and discussed new approaches to more effective disease prevention. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

Non-pharmaceutical interventions for the prevention of respiratory tract infections during Hajj pilgrimageSamir Benkouiten | Philippe Brouqui | Philippe Gautret
Volume 12, Issue 5, January 2014, Pages 429-442
© 2014 Elsevier Ltd.Overcrowding during the yearly Hajj mass gatherings is associated with increased risk of spreading infectious diseases, particularly respiratory diseases. Non-pharmaceutical interventions (e.g., hand hygiene, wearing face masks, social distancing) are known to reduce the spread of respiratory viruses from person to person and are therefore recommended to pilgrims by public health agencies. The implementation of effective public health policies and recommendations involves evaluating the adherence to and effectiveness of these measures in the specific context of the Hajj. This review summarizes the evidence related to the effectiveness of non-pharmaceutical interventions in preventing the spread of respiratory infectious diseases during the Hajj. Overall, although hand hygiene compliance is high among pilgrims, face mask use and social distancing remain difficult challenges. Data about the effectiveness of these measures at the Hajj are limited, and results are contradictory, highlighting the need for future large-scale studies.
Emergence of co-infection of visceral leishmaniasis in HIV-positive patients in northeast Iran: A preliminary studyReza Shafiei | Mehdi Mohebali | Behnaz Akhoundi | Meysam Sharifdini Galian | Fathollah Kalantar | Saeedeh Ashkan | Abdolmajid Fata | Bibi Razieh Hosseini Farash | Mehrdad Ghasemian

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) serosurvey was carried out on 49 HIV/AIDS patients among 500 asymptomatic HIV/infected patients who registered in the Khorasan Razavi Province during the last 14 years. HIV infections were detected by ELISA and confirmed using western blot assay at the AIDS centre of the Khorasan Razavi Province. All collected sera were screened using the direct agglutination test (DAT). The sera with anti-Leishmania infantum antibodies at a titre of 1:100 were considered positive for VL infection and serum titration was performed from 1:100 to 1:102,400. Nine (18.4%) patients were sero-positive according to DAT. The distribution of sera titrations were as follows: 1:100 (n = 6) 1:1600 (n = 1); 1:25,600 (n = 1) and 1:102,400 (n = 1). All sero-positive cases showed clinical signs and symptoms. The most predominant signs and symptoms of co-infection of visceral leishmaniasis in HIV-positive patients were pneumonia (n = 2), hepatosplenomegaly (n = 2), lymphadenopathy (n = 2), anaemia (n = 1), prolonged fever (n = 1) and cachexia (n = 1). Our finding shows that VL (or kala-azar) is an opportunistic disease in HIV-positive patients that may be occurred in VL endemic areas of Iran. © 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

commented viagra good for the brain on some of the specific problems associated with HIV infection, such as discrimination, social isolation, poverty, grief, and in the case of pregnant women, guilt over potentially infecting an unborn child. Unique to HIV is the meaning of the disease in our culture and the stigmatization and shame that come with the diagnosis. Psychiatric Intervention Working at the interface of psychiatry and obstetrics and gynecology can be both challenging and rewarding. Because a large proportion of HIV-infected pregnant women are substance abusers, their ongoing drug dependence makes them less able to be compliant with health care, thus compounding their sense of culpability and shame.

Since i'm in a mechanically minded mood it seems these days, I may as well try and fit the new XE inlet cam and vernier I bought a while back.
Anybody got a nice walkthrough for this? IE. how to do it without having to pee about too much with the timing belts as I really don't want to have to take the cambelt cover off (its a bit tight down there).
Can you just take the cam caps off, slide the belt off the pulley, remove camshaft and pulley, then reverse the proceedure
OK, this is unrealistic, but is there a nice easy way?

Will the Cowboys ever win without quarterback Tony Romo? They keep trying, bless their hearts, but have fallen short each time since Romo went down in Week 2, the most recent being a 33-27 overtime heartbreaker to the Eagles. Perhaps the football gods are punishing Jerry Jones for signing Greg Hardy. Dallas's last chance to win without Romo may be this one, since he is expected to return for its Nov. 22 game against the Dolphins.
But this one will not come easy. The Buccaneers, led by quarterback Jameis Winston, have proved to be a feisty bunch, a team capable of beating anyone when it is playing well and the ball bounces its way a time or two.
Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger had to be taken to the locker room on a cart after spraining his left foot in last week's 38-35 victory against the Raiders, but he refused to rule himself out for this one against the Browns, against whom he is 18-2 in his career. But Coach Mike Tomlin sounded less optimistic, stating that the team would "leave the door ajar" for Roethlisberger, though only "slightly ajar."
If Big Ben cannot go, Landry Jones will start for Pittsburgh. In his only start this season, a 23-13 loss to the Chiefs, Jones completed 16 of 29 passes for 209 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. Pittsburgh may also be without running back DeAngelo Williams, who also has a foot injury. Williams rushed for 170 yards last week filling in for the injured starter Le'Veon Bell.
Cleveland is also facing some uncertainty at quarterback. Starter Josh McCown is still struggling with a rib injury, meaning Johnny Manziel may be under center for the Browns once again.
When these teams met this season in Kansas City, the Broncos won in improbable fashion, returning a Jamaal Charles fumble for a touchdown with seconds left in regulation as the Chiefs were attempting to run out the clock and send the game into overtime.
Denver will be without cornerback Aqib Talib after he was suspended by the league for a game after hitting the Colts' Dwayne Allen with a Three Stooges-esque eye poke. Starting in Talib's place will be the rookie Bradley Roby. It was Roby who scooped up the aforementioned fumble and returned it for the game-winning touchdown in Week 2.
Coming off a 37-29 victory against Green Bay that served to emphasize that the Panthers are indeed a legitimate force, Carolina appears to be walking directly into a classic trap game. The Titans with Marcus Mariota under center are a more dangerous team than they are without him. Mariota's performance against the Saints in a 34-28 overtime win earned him A.F.C. Offensive Player of the Week honors, and he became the first rookie in N.F.L. history to toss four touchdown passes with no interceptions in a game twice in a season. He is also performing well where it matters most — Mariota's 115.6 passer rating in the red zone leads the N.F.L.
Desperate to add weapons to their passing game, the Rams have signed the concussion-plagued wide receiver Wes Welker. They are among the league's worst teams at converting on third down this season and hope that Welker, something of a third-down catch specialist throughout his career as a slot receiver, can help in that regard. In their last three games, the Rams have attempted to convert on third down 37 times and have succeeded only four times.
It took awhile to get going, but the Eagles appear to have gotten their swagger back. They have won three of their last four, with Chip Kelly's offense piling up yardage and points in those games; the Eagles have averaged 438 yards and 28 points per game in their last four.
The Dolphins appear to have been dealt a reality check in the last couple of weeks after winning two straight after Joe Philbin was fired as coach. After blowing out the Titans and the Texans under their new coach, Dan Campbell, Miami has been beaten handily by the Bills and the Patriots in its last two games.Type your paragraph here.

Happy TV turkey day!
Happy Thanksgiving to all my American readers, and (as Dan would say) happy Thursday to the rest of you.
In honor of the holiday - and the upcoming Chanukah/Christmas/Kwanzaa/New Year's holiday deluge - I'm going to embed two classic scenes from sitcom Thanksgiving episodes, plus the entirety of the first Chrismukkah episode of "The O.C." If you've got some time in front of the computer today before the turkey/football starts, enjoy, and then time for an open question: What's your favorite TV holiday episode ever, and why?
First up: the famous climax to the "Turkeys Away" episode of "WKRP in Cincinnati":
Next: the third act of "Thanksgiving Orphans," in which the regulars from "Cheers" wind up spending the holiday together when everyone's plans fall through:
And finally, Seth Cohen tries to help Ryan have "The Best Chrismukkah Ever" on "The O.C.," and Rachel Bilson gives Seth a Chrismukkah present that Fienberg has never forgotten:

STATE CONSERVATION OFFICER Tyson Brown has waited a long time to fulfill a goal, to become a game warden. It was a long road with many stepping stones along the way. And now that he is here, the sportsmen and women that cherish the outdoors are also happy to have him available for service. We welcome Tyson Brown to the area.
Brown made a decision during high school at Gladbrook-Reinbeck that becoming a conservation officer was his goal. Now he had to find the pathways that would lead to that goal. Knowing that a college degree would be one of the minimums, Tyson enrolled at Upper Iowa University in the fall of 2003. The following summer he landed a summer position with the Tama County Conservation Board.
One year of college classes later, his next summer job was with the Army Corps of Engineers as a Park Ranger at Saylorville Lake. Brown also worked with campus law enforcement at Upper Iowa 2006-07. Other stepping stones on his career path was that of all-terrain vehicle officer for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources at Waterloo, water patrol officer for the DNR at Dubuque, natural resource aide at Green Island, and lastly as the lead park ranger for the Dubuque Parks and Recreation Department, a position he held for five years from 2009-13.
Tyson is a graduate of the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy. He is also a qualified First Responder, Data Master, NRA Certified Instructor for basic pistol course, Iowa boating, hunter safety, trapping and bow hunter education. His interests in the outdoors includes fishing, hunting, boating. Tyson and his wife both enjoy bowhunting for deer.
Game wardens across the nation have huge territories to cover. It is a different type of law enforcement than city officers, sheriffs or state patrol. Nationally there are about 7,000 game wardens. To help put that number in perspective, 7,000 (out of 72,000) is the number assigned by New York City's police department to cover just its New Year's Eve celebration. In other words, there are not really a lot of game wardens to go around. They depend on public assistance, tips and other information to assist them in fish and game law enforcement.
And a big part of Brown's job is preventing violations or crimes concerning natural resources. Education is a tool used to inform the public of the standards of conduct expected when trapping, fishing or hunting. The Iowa DNR regulations booklet is very good at listing most of the rules that apply. And most of the active fishermen and hunters know the general theme of what is right and wrong regarding conduct during outdoor sports. Still, to find out the answers to questions or to clarify situations, a call to the game warden is always welcome. Brown's cell phone number is 641-751-5246.
There are about 85 conservation officers in Iowa. Just as in any profession, time moves quickly and officers who once were new to the system are now looking at only a few years left to retirement. They ask "where did time go?" As retirements take place, vacancies within Iowa are available for other officers to transfer into. If those transfers are approved, that leaves a vacancy to fill somehow by the administrators of the law enforcement bureau. Brown is not new to law enforcement, but he is "new" in the sense that he has just begun his duties as an Iowa game warden. We wish him well.
Conservation Officers in Iowa have more than 19,000 miles of interior streams and 582 miles of border rivers to patrol. There are 35 natural lakes, most dug by glacial actions over the landscape, and the water they contain covers more than 45,000 acres. There are 200 artificial recreational lakes with 24,000 surface acres. Old river channels add another 2,000 acres. There are four federal flood control reservoirs with 46,900 acres of water. The Mississippi River alone has 190,000 surface acres while the Missouri River has 13,500 acres. Within Iowa's borders are an abundance of private lands where most hunting and fishing takes place. Less than 2 percent of Iowa is public land, and not all of that is designated as public hunting areas.
Tomorrow, Sunday the 24th, is the DUCKS UNLIMITED TRAP SHOOT. It is not too late to gather a hunting buddy or two and head out to the Marshall Gun Club on the west side of the Marshalltown airport. The entry fee is $45 for three rounds of fire, and this includes the noon lunch. This fall event is a good way to practice for upcoming waterfowl seasons. If you attend, be there at 10:30 a.m. to sign in.
TEAL SEASON begins Sept. 6 and runs for 16 days statewide. Teal like to migrate early, particularly so if any hint of cold weather is in the air. The three-week long teal season is timed to to take advantage of peak migration times for Green-winged, Blue-winged and Cinnamon teal. Special note on the taking of these birds ... shooting hours are sunrise to sunset. To assist in identifying teal, a web site is available to learn more about them. Go to www.iowadnr.gov/teal. In addition, six special seminars will be held in Iowa to assist hunters. They are at Oxford, at F.W Kent Park Aug. 27 at 7 pm; Spencer Aug. 28 at Spencer High School; Burlington's Starr's Cave Nature Center Aug. 28 at 7 p.m.; Council Bluffs Aug. 28 at 6 p.m. at Lewis Central Middle School; Peosta at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 28 at the Swiss Valley Nature Center; and also at Waverly Sept. 4 at 6:30 p.m. at the Waverly Public Library.
Here is a bit of information to all those folks that think that feeding geese at the local cemetery is a good thing. Well, think again. Bread crumbs will entice the geese to eat. But people are inadvertently giving the geese the wrong kind of food. It is best not to feed the geese anything. Allow them to forage for themselves or fly out to local farm fields to seek waste grain.
If you have never heard of ANGEL WING DISEASE, you have now. It is a deformity of the wings caused by the wrong type of food. Scientists have a theory that the rate of growth of a young gosling's wings is enhanced by eating bread, exactly the wrong food at the wrong time, that causes the wings to grow too fast. Bread can cause the wing bone structure to look mangled and twisted. These geese will never fly, they can't fly, and it is all because some people thought it was cute to feed the geese. What you were actually doing is killing them with misdirected kindness. Marshalltown has at least two geese in this situation now. There may be more.
There is no cure for the disease. Well let me re-phrase that. There is a cure and it begins with people knowing what not to feed geese. The geese are perfectly capable of learning the ropes of survival from adult birds. The best thing people can do is observe the geese. Leave the bread at home for the kids with thick layers of peanut butter and jelly. At least that is good for people.
Three simple rules in life: 1. If you do not go after what you want, you'll never have it. 2. If you do not ask, the answer will always be no. 3. If you do not step forward, you will always be in the same place.
Garry Brandenburg is a graduate of Iowa State University with BS degree in Fish & Wildlife Biology. He is the retired director of the Marshall County Conservation Board. Contact him at PO Box 96, Albion, IA 50005.
