Abstract
BACKGROUND Natural orifice transluminal endoscopy surgery (NOTES) gastrojejunal anastomosis (GJA) with duodenal exclusion (DE) could be used as a less invasive alternative to surgical gastric bypass. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of both methods for bariatric purpose. METHODS This was a prospective, experimental and comparative study on 27 obese living pigs, comparing 4 groups: GJA alone (group 1, G1), GJA + DE (group 2, G2), surgical gastric bypass (group 3, G3), control group (group 4, G4). GJA was endoscopically performed, using NOTES technic and LAMS, while DE was performed surgically for limb length selection. Animals were followed for 3 months. Primary outcome included technical success and weight change, while secondary endpoints included the rate of perioperative mortality and morbidity, histological anastomosis analysis and biological analysis. RESULTS Technical success was 100% in each intervention group. No death related to endoscopic procedures occurred in the endoscopic groups, while early mortality (< 1 month) was 57,1% in the surgical group, all due to anastomotic dehiscence. At 3 months, compared to baseline, mean weight change was + 3,1% in G1 (p = 0,46); -14,9% in G2 (p = 0,17); +5,6% in G3 (p = 0,38) and + 25% in G4 (p = 0,029). Histopathological analysis of endoscopic GJA showed complete fusion of different layers without leak or abscess. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic GJA with DE provides the efficacy of bypass on weight control in an animal model. Next steps consist of the development of devices to perform exclusively endoscopically limb length selection and DE.

Abstract
This study aims to determine the diversity of culturable thermophilic bacteria isolated from eight terrestrial hot springs in Northeastern of Algeria using the conventional methods, SDS-PAGE fingerprinting of whole-cell proteins and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. In addition, their hydrolytic enzyme activities were also investigated. A total of 293 strains were isolated from the hot springs' water and sediment using different culture media. Overall, five distinct bacterial groups were characterized by whole-cell protein pattern analysis. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequencing of 100 selected strains, the isolates were assigned to the following three major phyla: Firmicutes (93%), Deinococcus-Thermus (5%), and Actinobacteria (2%), which included 27 distinct species belonging to 12 different phylotypes, Aeribacillus, Aneurinibacillus, Anoxybacillus, Bacillus, Brevibacillus, Geobacillus, Laceyella, Meiothermus, Saccharomonospora, Thermoactinomyces, Thermobifida, and Thermus. The screening for nine extracellular enzymes showed that 65.87% of the isolates presented at least five types of enzyme activities, and 6.48% of strains combined all tested enzymes (amylase, cellulase, pectinase, esculinase, protease, gelatinase, lipase, lecithinase, and nuclease). It was found that Bacillus, Anoxybacillus, Aeribacillus, and Aneurinibacillus were the genera showing the highest activities. Likewise, the study showed an abundant and diverse thermophilic community with novel taxa presenting a promising source of thermozymes with important biotechnological applications. This study showed that a combined identification method using SDS-PAGE profiles of whole-cell proteins and subsequent 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis could successfully differentiate thermophilic bacteria from Algerian hot springs.

Abstract
ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to assess if visual degrees of doneness (DOD) are in-line with current published cooking temperatures and to assess differences in perceptions between consumers and chefs.Materials and MethodsTwenty-four paired beef strip loins (IMPS #180) representing four quality grades [Prime, Top Choice, Low Choice, Select] and an additional 12 enhanced Select strip loins were fabricated into 2.54 cm thick steaks and used in the study. Steaks were randomly assigned to one of six DOD: very rare (55°C), rare (60°C), medium-rare (63°C), medium (71°C), well done (77°C), or very well done (82°C). Following cooking, a photograph of the cut steak surface was taken immediately using a digital camera (Canon PowerShot SX620 HS). A digital survey for chefs and consumers was created for the electronic evaluation of the pictures of the internal surface of the cooked steaks. Chefs (n = 83) and consumers (n = 1134) were asked to assess the DOD of digital steak pictures representing multiple DOD and quality grades. Participants were also asked several questions related to how they determine DOD when cooking steaks, about their use of thermometers, and the temperatures they associate with each DOD.ResultsThere were no quality treatment effects (P > 0.05) for any DOD for the images evaluated. Between 14 to 44% of chefs categorized the steak images as the DOD to which it was cooked. For all DOD, 9 to 48% of chefs classified the steak images as 2 or more DOD from the DOD to which the steak was cooked. Of the 1134 consumers, 27 to 35% of consumers categorized steaks as the appropriate DOD. For all DOD, 16 to 36% of consumers identified steaks as 2 or more DOD higher or lower than the DOD that the steak was cooked. When chefs were asked how they determined DOD when cooking beef steaks, 66% of chefs reported using feel or firmness, whereas 28% stated they use a thermometer. Within the chefs that reported use of thermometers, 15% indicated the specific temperature they used was pull-off the heat temperature and 13% used carry-over cooking temperature. To assess DOD when cooking beef at home, 54% of consumers reported they used color, 16% used feel or firmness, and 10% used time. Additionally, 3% of consumers responded that they do not determine DOD. Only 16% of consumers reported using temperature or food thermometer for determining the correct DOD when cooking beef. Consumers that answered to using a food thermometer were then prompted to state the temperature they utilize, being either pull off the heat temperature (69%) or temperature following the post-cooking temperature rise (31%). However, 48 to 61% of consumers that stated they use a thermometer then reported they did not know the temperatures that correspond with each DOD. Additionally, only 14 to 32% of consumers that utilized peak temperatures matched the NCBA temperatures.ConclusionAlthough consumers do not have a good understanding of beef cooking temperatures, they are able to identify DOD of steaks cooked to specified endpoint temperatures. Additionally, chefs do not consistently use the same method when determining DOD and are unable to accurately identify DOD of steaks cooked to specified endpoint temperatures. This lack of uniformity between chefs and consumers on DOD determination can create challenges for foodservice establishments to successfully meet consumer DOD expectations.

Abstract
ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of increased pork hot carcass weights on consumer visual acceptability and purchase intent ratings of top loin chops cut to various thicknesses in a price labeled versus unlabeled retail display scenario.Materials and MethodsPigs in this study were intentionally raised to reach heavier hot carcass weights when compared to industry standards. Pork loins (N = 200) were collected from 4 different hot carcass weight groups: a light weight (LT; less than 111.8 kg), medium-light weight (MLT; 111.8 to 119.0 kg), medium-heavy weight (MHVY; 119.1 to 124.4), and a heavy weight (HVY; 124.4 and greater). Loins were fabricated into 4 pairs of chops of specified thicknesses (1.27, 1.91, 2.54, and 3.18 cm) at Day 7, 8, or 9 postmortem. For each chop loineye area, length and width were measured. One chop from each specified thickness was then randomly assigned to be packaged with a label containing package price and weight information. The other paired chop was packaged without a label. Consumers (N = 393; 8 per panel) from the Manhattan, KS, area assessed chops from each weight group × thickness combination in both labeled and unlabeled scenarios. Chops were assessed on a 0 to 100 continuous line scale for desirability and purchase intent. Consumers were also able to indicate “yes” or “no” if the chop was either desirable and if they would purchase the chop.ResultsAs hot carcass weight increased, there was an increase in loineye area and chop length, with chops from HVY carcasses having greater (P < 0.05) loineye areas and lengths compared to all other weight treatments. For both appearance and purchase intent ratings, chops from HVY carcasses were given higher (P < 0.05) ratings compared to LT chops. Additionally, consumers gave greater (P < 0.05) appearance ratings to thicker cut chops. There was a hot carcass weight × chop thickness interaction (P < 0.05) for the percentage of consumers that indicated the chop was desirable overall. Regardless of hot carcass weight treatment, chops with a thickness of 1.27 cm had the lowest (P < 0.05) percentage of consumers indicate they were desirable overall. Within the LT and MLT weight treatments, chops with a thickness of 1.91 and 2.54 cm were similar (P > 0.05) with the greatest (P < 0.05) percentage of consumers who indicated they were desirable. Within the HVY weight treatment, chops with a thickness of 2.54 cm had the greatest (P < 0.05) percentage of consumers who indicated they were desirable. A greater (P < 0.05) percentage of consumers indicated “yes” they would purchase chops cut to a thickness of 2.54 cm compared to all other thicknesses. Additionally, there was a greater (P < 0.05) percentage of consumers who indicated they would purchase chops that were unlabeled compared to chops labeled with weight and pricing information.ConclusionThese results indicate that carcass weight and chop thickness can affect consumer preference and purchasing decisions. Thus, both should be considered by retailers when marketing fresh pork top loin chops.

Abstract
ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to determine the impact of feeding consumers of varying degree of doneness (DOD) preferences steaks cooked to multiple DOD on their perceptions of beef palatability.Materials and MethodsPaired Low Choice strip loin steaks (n = 360) were randomly assigned a DOD of either rare (60°C), medium-rare (63°C), medium (71°C), medium-well (74°C), or well-done (77°C). Consumer panelists (n = 283) were prescreened to participate in panels based on their DOD preference of either rare, medium, or well-done. In the first round of serving, consumers were served one sample from each of the five DOD, under low-intensity red incandescent lighting to mask any DOD differences among samples. Round 2 testing procedures were identical to round 1, except consumers were served under white incandescent lights, allowing for the consumers to visually evaluate the DOD of samples during testing. Consumers evaluated samples for tenderness, juiciness, flavor, and overall liking on continuous line scales. Screening the consumers beforehand for DOD preference allowed for a measure of the impact of “missing” the consumer’s ideal DOD and quantification of the impact of both under and overcooking steaks on consumer beef palatability ratings.ResultsThere were no consumer preference ×DOD interactions or consumer preference effects for tenderness, juiciness, and flavor (P > 0.05) when steaks were evaluated under both lighting types. As expected, within the red-light testing, as cooking temperature increased, overall liking decreased (P < 0.05). The sensory cue of sight significantly impacted palatability ratings. Within the white-light testing, the consumer preference × DOD interaction for overall liking was marginally significant (P = 0.078). Consumers that preferred rare and medium rated rare and medium-rare the greatest (P < 0.05) and well-done the lowest (P < 0.05) for overall liking. However, as the consumers DOD preference increased, the more their ratings differed than in the red-light test. For consumers that preferred well-done, there were no differences (P > 0.05) among DOD for overall liking within the white-light test. But, when tested under the red-light, well-done consumers rated rare and medium-rare with the greatest (P < 0.05) overall liking, with well-done having the least (P < 0.05) overall liking, being similar (P > 0.05) only to medium. As for the change in ratings when compared to the consumers preferred DOD, when steaks were undercooked, they were rated higher (P < 0.05) and when steaks were overcooked, they were rated lower (P < 0.05), regardless of the consumer’s DOD preference. For all ratings, when steaks were cooked below the consumer’s preference, there were no differences (P > 0.05) among the ratings, all of which were rated higher (P < 0.05) than their preferred DOD. Means decreased (P < 0.05) as the amount of overcooking increased, with steaks cooked four DOD over the consumer’s preferred DOD being rated tougher and lower (P < 0.05) for flavor liking than steaks cooked to their preferred DOD.ConclusionRegardless of the consumers DOD preference, undercooking had a positive effect versus their preferred DOD, and overcooking negatively impacted ratings. Therefore, it is better for steaks served at restaurants to err on the side of being undercooked to maximize the consumers eating experience.

Abstract
ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of pork hot carcass weight on loin quality and palatability of top loin chops.Materials and MethodsThe pigs in this study were raised to exceed standard market weights. Pork loins (N = 200) were collected from 4 different hot carcass weight groups: light (LT; less than 111.8 kg), medium-light (MLT; 111.8- 119.1 kg), medium-heavy (MHVY; 119.1- 124.4), and a heavy (HVY; 124.4 and greater). Prior to fabrication, purge loss percentage, instrumental color, subjective color and marbling, and pH were taken for each loin. Following fabrication, chops were assigned to fat and moisture analysis, Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF), consumer sensory analysis, or trained sensory analysis. For WBSF, consumer, and trained panels, chops were thawed for 24 h prior to analysis. Chops were cooked on clam-shell style grills and removed from the heat with the internal temperature rising to a peak internal temperature of 71°C. Consumers (N = 197) evaluated each sample for tenderness, juiciness, flavor like, and overall liking on 0 to 100 continuous line scales. Consumers were also able to indicate “yes” or “no” if the chop was acceptable for all palatability traits and overall. Trained panelists evaluated each sample for initial juiciness, sustained juiciness, myofibrillar tenderness, connective tissue amount, overall tenderness, pork flavor, and off flavor on similar 0 to 100 continuous line scales.ResultsLoins from all weight groups differed (P < 0.05) in weight (LT < MLT < MHVY < HVY). No carcass weight effects (P > 0.05) were found for loin instrumental color, subjective color, subjective marbling, purge loss percentage, pH, WBSF, moisture percentage, fat percentage, and drip loss. Carcass weight did not affect (P > 0.05) juiciness or flavor like ratings but did affect (P < 0.05) tenderness ratings and overall liking ratings. Chops from the HVY group were rated as more tender (P < 0.05) compared to chops from the LT weight group. Additionally, chops from the HVY weight group had greater (P < 0.05) consumer overall liking rating compared to chops from both the LT and MLT weight treatments. Hot carcass weight treatment did not contribute (P > 0.05) to the percentage of chops rated acceptable for flavor and overall liking. Chops from the HVY weight carcasses had the greatest (P < 0.05) percentage of chops rated acceptable for juiciness. Chops from LT carcasses had the lowest percentage of chops rated acceptable for tenderness. Trained sensory results also reflected tenderness and juiciness differences among carcass weight treatments. For both initial and sustained juiciness, chops from MHVY carcasses were rated as juicier (P < 0.05) compared to chops from both MLT and LT carcasses. Additionally, chops from the LT hot carcass weight treatment had the lowest (P < 0.05) myofibrillar tenderness ratings. Chops from MHVY and HVY carcasses were similar (P > 0.05) with greater (P < 0.05) overall tenderness ratings compared to chops from LT carcasses.ConclusionThese results indicate that as hot carcass weight increased, there were no negative effects on loin quality, and top loin chops from heavier weight carcasses had improved tenderness and juiciness compared to chops from lighter carcasses. This provides evidence that as the hot carcass weights of pigs in the United States continue to increase there will be no negative effects on quality and palatability.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical composition, consumer liking, and consumer acceptability of ground beef with 2 finishing diets. Three ground beef treatments were used in this study and included grass-fed, grain-fed Angus, and grain-fed commodity beef. Ground beef samples were evaluated for consumer sensory response, pH, proximate composition, and fatty acid composition. Grain-fed samples were rated higher (P < 0.01) for overall liking compared to grass-fed samples. Consumers found tenderness and juiciness similar (P > 0.05) for all 3 types of ground beef. Consumers preferred (P < 0.05) Angus over grass-fed ground beef with a flavor acceptability of 83.3 and 73.9%, respectively; and 94.9 and 82.5%, respectively, for overall acceptability. Commodity ground beef had a similar (P > 0.05) flavor acceptability and overall acceptability to Angus and grass-fed ground beef. Grass-fed, Angus, and commodity ground beef were similar (P > 0.05) for moisture, fat, and protein content. Commodity ground beef had a higher pH (P < 0.05) than Angus and grass-fed ground beef. Samples of ground beef from the 2 grain-fed treatments had greater (P < 0.05) total saturated fatty acids (SFA) than grass-fed samples; however, ground beef from grass-fed cattle had higher monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA; P < 0.01) than the grain-fed treatments. Total polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) was similar (P > 0.01) across all treatments. Omega-3 fatty acids were found in the greatest (P < 0.05) proportions in samples from grass-fed beef. Additionally, the omega-6:omega-3 ratio for grass-fed ground beef was lower (P < 0.05) than grain-fed source. Angus and commodity ground beef were more palatable, and there was no evidence of higher PUFA in grass-fed ground beef.

Abstract
Interactive effects of supplemental Zn and zilpaterol hydrochloride (ZH) were evaluated in feedlot steers ( = 40; 652 kg ± 14 initial BW) to determine their impact on feedlot performance, blood constituents, and carcass traits. The study was conducted as a randomized complete block design with a 2 × 2 factorial treatment arrangement. Steers were blocked by BW and randomly assigned to treatments. Factors consisted of supplemental Zn (60 or 300 mg/kg diet DM) and ZH (0 or 8.33 mg/kg) in the diets. For diets supplemented with 300 mg Zn/kg DM, 60 mg Zn/kg was supplemented as zinc sulfate and 240 mg Zn/kg was supplemented as zinc oxide, and the diet was fed for 24 d. Zilpaterol hydrochloride was fed for 21 d followed by a 3-d withdrawal. Cattle were housed in partially covered individual feeding pens equipped with automatic waterers and fence-line feed bunks and were fed once daily for ad libitum intake. Plasma samples were collected on d 0 and 21 to assess changes in Zn, plasma urea nitrogen (PUN), glucose, and lactate concentrations, and serum samples were collected on d 21 to assess IGF-1 concentration. On d 25, cattle were weighed and transported 450 km to a commercial abattoir for harvest; HCW and incidence of liver abscesses were recorded. Carcass data were collected after 36 h of refrigeration. Data were analyzed as a mixed model with Zn, ZH, and Zn × ZH as fixed effects; block as a random effect; and steer as the experimental unit. No interaction or effects of Zn or ZH were observed for IGF-1 concentration, plasma glucose, or lactate concentrations ( ≥ 0.25). No interaction between Zn and ZH was observed for PUN concentration, but PUN decreased with ZH ( < 0.01). There were no effects of ZH or Zn on ADG, DMI, final BW, feed efficiency, HCW, back fat, KPH, quality grade, or incidence of liver abscesses ( > 0.05). Zinc supplementation tended ( = 0.08) to improve the proportion of carcasses grading USDA Choice. Feeding ZH decreased yield grade ( = 0.05) and tended to increase LM area ( = 0.07). In conclusion, increasing dietary concentrations of Zn does not impact response to ZH, but feeding ZH altered circulating concentrations of PUN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Management of post-sleeve gastrectomy fistulas (PSGF) recently has evolved, resulting in prioritization of internal endoscopic drainage (IED). We report our experience with the technique in a tertiary center. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a single-center, retrospective study of 44 patients whose PSGF was managed with IED, comparing two periods: after 2013 (Group 1; n = 22) when IED was used in first line and before 2013 (Group 2; n = 22) when IED was applied in second line. Demographic data, pre-endoscopic management, characteristics of fistulas, therapeutic modalities and outcomes were recorded and compared between the two groups. The primary endpoint was IED efficacy; the secondary endpoint was a comparison of outcomes depending on the timing of IED in the management strategy. RESULTS The groups were matched in gender (16 female, 16 male), mean age (43 years old), severity of fistula, delay before treatment, and exposure to previous endoscopic or surgical treatments. The overall efficacy rate was 84 % (37/44): 86 % in Group 1 and 82 % in Group 2 (NS). There was one death and one patient who underwent surgery. The median time to healing was 226 ± 750 days (Group 1) vs. 305 ± 300 days (Group 2) (NS), with a median number of endoscopies of 3 ± 6 vs . 4.5 ± 2.4 (NS). There were no differences in number of nasocavity drains and double pigtail stents (DPS), but significantly more metallic stents, complications, and secondary strictures were seen in Group 2. CONCLUSION IED for management of PSGF is effective in more than 80 % of cases whenever it is used during the therapeutic strategy. This approach should be favored when possible.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine the effect of percent Brahman genetics on Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF), desmin and troponin-T (TnT) degradation, hydroxylysyl pyridinoline (HP) crosslink content, and perimysial collagen melting temperature. Steers ( = 131) produced in 2012 and 2013 were harvested at 1.27 cm of visual s.c. back fat thickness. Steers were divided into 4 genetic categories consisting of steers that contained 6/32 or less Brahman genetics, 12/32 Brahman genetics, 14/32 to 18/32 Brahman genetics, and 23/32 to 32/32 Brahman genetics. Twenty-four hours after harvest, a 7.62-cm piece of the longissimus lumborum beginning at the 13th rib was collected and aged for 14 d. Following aging, three 2.54-cm steaks were cut for WBSF, trained sensory panel, and laboratory analyses. Laboratory analyses steaks were used to determine protein degradation, HP crosslink analysis, and perimysial collagen melting temperature. Data were analyzed using a polynomial regression for unequally spaced treatments. As the percent Brahman genetics increased, WBSF increased (linear, = 0.01). As percent Brahman genetics increased, tenderness score decreased (less tender) and connective tissue score increased (more connective tissue; linear, = 0.01). As the percentage of Brahman genetics increased, the amount of degraded desmin (38 kDa) and TnT (34 and 30 kDa) decreased (linear, < 0.03) whereas the amount of immunoreactive 36 kDa TnT increased (linear, = 0.04). Percent Brahman genetics had no effect ( = 0.14) on HP crosslink content but did tend to increase ( = 0.07) perimysial collagen melting temperature as the percent Brahman increased. The percentage of Brahman genetic influence was positively correlated to WBSF ( = 0.25), 36 kDa immunoreactive TnT ( = 0.26), and perimysial collagen melting temperature ( = 0.25, = 0.01). Sensory panel tenderness ( = -0.44), juiciness ( = -0.26), and connective tissue scores ( = -0.63); 38 kDa degraded desmin ( = -0.34), 34 ( = -0.36) and 30 kDa degraded TnT ( = -0.29); and HP collagen crosslinks ( = -0.20) were negatively correlated to percent Brahman genetic influence ( < 0.03). Increasing Brahman genetic influence in steers negatively affects tenderness, partially through a reduction in degradation of desmin and TnT. Although HP collagen crosslinks are unaffected by Brahman genetics, a tendency for increased perimysium melting temperature indicates that other collagen-stabilizing crosslinks may be affected.

Abstract
Interactive effects of supplemental Zn and ractopamine hydrochloride (RH) were evaluated using 156 crossbred heifers (initial BW = 527 kg ± 6.61; gross BW × 0.96) to determine the impact on feedlot performance, plasma urea nitrogen (PUN), and carcass characteristics. The study was conducted as a randomized complete block design with a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Factors consisted of 1) 30 or 100 mg supplemental Zn/kg diet DM (30Zn or 100Zn) as Zn sulfate and 2) 0 or 200 mg RH/heifer daily. Heifers were blocked by BW and assigned randomly within block to treatments for a 43-d trial. Heifers were housed in partially covered feeding pens (3 heifers/pen; 13 pens/treatment) and provided ad libitum access to feed. Ractopamine hydrochloride was fed for 42 d and removed from the diet until cattle were harvested on d 43. Zinc treatments were fed until harvest. Plasma samples were collected on d 0 and 36 to assess changes in plasma Zn and PUN. On d 43, heifers were weighed, then transported to a commercial abattoir where HCW and incidence of liver abscesses were recorded. Carcass data were collected after 32 h of refrigeration. No Zn × RH interactions were observed for plasma Zn or PUN ( ≥ 0.58); however, there was a tendency for a RH × day interaction for PUN ( = 0.08). Supplementing 100Zn resulted in increased plasma Zn ( = 0.02) compared to 30Zn. No RH × Zn interactions were observed for feedlot performance ( ≥ 0.24). Final BW and ADG increased with RH supplementation ( ≤ 0.02), but DMI was not affected ( = 0.63); thus, feed efficiency improved ( < 0.01) when heifers were fed RH. Supplementing 100Zn tended to reduce ADG ( = 0.07) but did not affect other measures of feedlot performance ( ≥ 0.12). Zinc × RH interactions were observed for LM area and yield grade ( ≤ 0.01); LM area decreased and yield grade increased when heifers were supplemented 100Zn with no RH compared to other treatments. A tendency for a Zn × RH interaction was observed for dressed yield ( = 0.08), but no other interactions or effects of Zn were detected for carcass traits ( ≥ 0.11). Supplementing RH increased HCW ( = 0.03) but did not affect other carcass traits ( ≥ 0.13). In conclusion, supplemental Zn had little impact on feedlot performance or PUN concentration but may alter muscle and fat deposition when fed in conjunction with RH.

Abstract
Field data are still recorded on paper in many worldwide beach surveys of nesting marine turtles. The data must be subsequently transferred into an electronic database, and this can introduce errors in the dataset. To minimize such errors, the "Turtles" software was developed and piloted to record field data by one software user accompanying one Tortuguero in Akumal beaches, Quintana Roo, Mexico, from June 1st to July 31st during the night patrols. Comparisons were made between exported data from the software with the paper forms entered into a database (henceforth traditional). Preliminary assessment indicated that the software user tended to record a greater amount of metrics (i.e., an average of 18.3 fields ± 5.4 sd vs. 8.6 fields ± 2.1 sd recorded by the traditional method). The traditional method introduce three types of "errors" into a dataset: missing values in relevant fields (40.1%), different answers for the same value (9.8%), and inconsistent data (0.9%). Only 5.8% of these (missing values) were found with the software methodology. Although only tested by a single user, the software may suggest increased efficacy and warrants further examination to accurately assess the merit of replacing traditional methods of data recording for beach monitoring programmes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric peroral endoscopic pyloromyotomy (G-POEM) was introduced for treating refractory gastroparesis. AIM To present a series of patients focussed on clinical mid-term efficacy and predictive outcomes factors. METHODS This was a single centre study of 29 patients operated on between January 2014 and April 2016, with disturbed gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) and/or elevated Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptoms Index (GCSI). The procedures were performed as previously described. The primary endpoint was the efficacy at 3 and 6 months, based on GCSI and symptoms. The secondary endpoints were GES evolution, procedure reproducibility and safety, and identification of predictive factors for success. RESULTS There were 10 men, 19 women (mean age 52.8±18). The technical success rate was 100% (average 47 minutes). There were two complications managed conservatively: one bleeding and one abscess. The median follow-up was 10±6.4 months. The clinical success rate was 79% at 3 months, 69% at 6 months, with a significant decrease in the mean GCSI compared to pre-operatively (3.3±0.9 vs 1±1.2 and 1.1±0.9 respectively). The GES (n=23) normalised in 70% of cases, with a significant improvement of the mean half emptying time and retention at 2 hours, and a discordance in 21% of the cases. In univariate analysis, diabetes and female gender were significantly associated with risk of failure, but not confirmed in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS The mid-term efficacy of G-POEM reaches 70% at 6 months. The procedure remains reproducible and safe. Diabetes and female gender were predictive of failure.

Abstract
A combination of yeast and chromium propionate (Y+Cr) was added to the diets of crossbred finishing steers ( = 504; 402 kg ± 5.76 initial BW) to evaluate impact on feedlot performance and carcass traits. We hypothesized supplementation of Y+Cr would increase growth of feedlot steers. Steers with initial plasma glucose concentrations ≤6.0 m were stratified by initial BW and randomly allocated, within strata, to receive 0 (control) or 3.3 g/d Y+Cr. Steers were further divided into heavy and light weight blocks with 6 pens/diet within each weight block. Cattle were housed in dirt-surfaced pens with 21 steers/pen and had ad libitum access to feed. Body weights were measured at 21-d intervals. Blood samples were collected on d 49 and 94 from a subset of steers (5/pen) for analyses of plasma glucose and lactate concentrations. At the end of the finishing phase, animals were weighed and transported 450 km to an abattoir in Holcomb, KS. Severity of liver abscesses and HCW were collected the day of harvest, and after 36 h of refrigeration, USDA yield and quality grades, LM area, and 12th rib subcutaneous fat thickness were determined. There were no treatment × time × weight block interactions ( > 0.05) and no treatment × block interaction for ADG, DMI, or final BW ( ≥ 0.06), but a treatment × block interaction ( = 0.03) was observed for G:F, in which control, light cattle had poorer efficiency compared with other groups. Treatment × weight group interactions were observed for overall yield grade and carcasses that graded yield grade 1 ( ≤ 0.04). Light steers supplemented with Y+Cr had decreased overall yield grade and increased percentage of carcasses grading yield grade 1 compared with their control counterparts, with no differences observed for heavy steers. Regardless of weight group, a greater percentage of carcasses from steers supplemented with Y+Cr graded yield grade 2 ( = 0.03) and fewer carcasses from steers supplemented Y+Cr graded yield grade 3 ( < 0.01) than control steers. No interactions or effects of treatment were detected for other carcass measurements ( ≥ 0.07). There were no treatment × weight group interactions or effects of treatment for plasma glucose or lactate concentrations on d 49 or 94 ( > 0.10). Overall, yeast in combination with chromium propionate may improve feed efficiency and decrease yield grade of light cattle but had no effect on remaining carcass traits and blood constituents.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of dietary ractopamine HCl (RAC) on muscle fiber characteristics and electromyography (EMG) measures of finishing barrow exhaustion when barrows were subjected to increased levels of activity. Barrows ( = 34; 92 ± 2 kg initial BW) were assigned to 1 of 2 treatments: a conventional swine finishing diet containing 0 mg/kg ractopamine HCl (CON) or a diet formulated to meet the requirements of finishing barrows fed 10 mg/kg RAC (RAC+). After 32 d on feed, barrows were individually moved around a track at 0.79 m/s until subjectively exhausted. Wireless EMG sensors were affixed to the deltoideus (DT), triceps brachii lateral head (TLH), tensor fasciae latae (TFL), and semitendinosus (ST) muscles to measure median power frequency (MdPF) and root mean square (RMS) as indicators of action potential conduction velocity and muscle fiber recruitment, respectively. After harvest, samples of each muscle were collected for fiber type, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), and capillary density analysis. Speed was not different ( = 0.82) between treatments, but RAC+ barrows reached subjective exhaustion earlier and covered less distance than CON barrows ( < 0.01). There were no treatment × muscle interactions or treatment effects for end-point MdPF values ( > 0.29). There was a treatment × muscle interaction ( = 0.04) for end-point RMS values. The RAC diet did not change end-point RMS values in the DT or TLH ( > 0.37); however, the diet tended to decrease and increase end-point RMS in the ST and TFL, respectively ( < 0.07). There were no treatment × muscle interactions for fiber type, SDH, or capillary density measures ( > 0.10). Muscles of RAC+ barrows tended to have less type I fibers and more capillaries per fiber ( < 0.07). Type I and IIA fibers of RAC+ barrows were larger ( < 0.07). Compared with all other muscles, the ST had more ( < 0.01) type IIB fibers and larger type I, IIA, and IIX fibers ( < 0.01). Type I, IIA, and IIX fibers of the ST also contained less SDH compared with the other muscles ( < 0.01). Barrows fed a RAC diet had increased time to subjective exhaustion due to loss of active muscle fibers in the ST, possibly due to fibers being larger and less oxidative in metabolism. Size increases in type I and IIA fibers with no change in oxidative capacity could also contribute to early exhaustion of RAC+ barrows. Overall, EMG technology can measure real-time muscle fiber loss to help explain subjective exhaustion in barrows.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of brand and product identification on consumer palatability ratings of ground beef patties. Six treatments were used in the study: 90/10 Certified Angus Beef (CAB) ground sirloin, 90/10 ground beef, 80/20 CAB ground chuck, 80/20 ground chuck, 80/20 ground beef, and 73/27 CAB ground beef. Ground beef was processed into 151.2-g patties using a patty former with 2 consecutively formed patties assigned to blind consumer testing and the following 2 assigned to informed testing. Following cooking to 74°C, patties were cut into quarters and served to consumers. Consumers ( = 112) evaluated samples in 2 rounds for tenderness, juiciness, flavor liking, texture liking, and overall liking. Each trait was also rated as either acceptable or unacceptable. In the first round of testing, samples were blind evaluated, with no information about the treatments provided to consumers, but in the second round, product type and brand were disclosed prior to sample evaluation. Additionally, texture profile and shear force analyses were performed on patties from each treatment. Few differences were observed for palatability traits during blind consumer testing; however, during informed testing, 90/10 CAB ground sirloin was rated greatest ( < 0.05) for all palatability traits other than juiciness. Also, 90/10 CAB ground sirloin had increased ( < 0.05; (consumer informed score - consumer blind score)/consumer blind score) ratings for tenderness (17.4%), juiciness (36.5%), flavor liking (23.3%), texture liking (18.2%), and overall liking (24.7%) due to brand disclosure. Increased ( < 0.05) ratings were found for CAB products for multiple traits due to treatment disclosure, whereas the only non-CAB-branded product that received increased ( < 0.05) ratings during informed testing was 90/10 ground beef for tenderness and juiciness. Texture results indicated that decreased fat level increased hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness. These results indicate that when sampling ground beef without brand and product information, few consumers find differences in eating quality among ground beef treatments; however, when consumers are aware of the brand, fat level, and subprimal blend prior to sampling, these factors have a large impact on consumer eating satisfaction.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the influence of knowing the brand or USDA grade on consumer palatability ratings of beef strip loin steaks. Strip loins were selected to represent 5 USDA grades and brands, USDA Select, Choice, Prime, Certified Angus Beef (CAB; upper 2/3 Choice), and Select, from carcasses of cattle classified as Angus on the basis of phenotype. After 21 d of aging, 2.5-cm-thick steaks were cut, consecutively cut steaks were paired for consumer evaluation. Consumer panelists ( = 112) evaluated samples for tenderness, juiciness, flavor liking, and overall liking. Additionally, consumers rated each palatability trait as either acceptable or unacceptable. Samples were fed in 2 rounds on the same day: blind and informed testing. In the first round, blind testing, consumers were served 1 sample from each treatment, with no product information provided. In the second round, consumers were informed of the brand or quality grade prior to sampling. During blind testing, CAB rated similar ( > 0.05) to Choice for all palatability traits; however, CAB rated greater ( < 0.05) than Choice for all traits during informed testing. Additionally, Angus Select and Select were rated similar > 0.05) for all traits when tested blind, but Angus Select was rated greater ( < 0.05) than Select for flavor and overall liking when brand was declared. When comparing blind and informed ratings, Angus Select and CAB had greater ( < 0.05) ratings for juiciness, flavor liking, and overall liking, and Prime had increased ( < 0.05) ratings for flavor liking and overall liking because of brand disclosure. However, ratings for Choice and Select samples were unaffected ( > 0.05) when brand was disclosed. Brand knowledge increased ( < 0.05) the percentage of Prime samples rated as acceptable for flavor and the percentage of Angus Select samples rated as acceptable for flavor and overall liking. Conversely, there was no difference ( > 0.05) in the percentage of Choice and Select samples rated as acceptable for all palatability traits. These data indicate that Prime, CAB, and Angus Select steaks receive an increase in consumer palatability perception, or "brand lift," which does not occur for Choice and Select beef.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine effects of 4 levels of microalgae meal (All-G Rich, CCAP 4087/2; Alltech Inc., Nicholasville, KY) supplementation to the diet of finishing heifers on longissimus lumborum (LL) steak PUFA content, beef palatability, and color stability. Crossbred heifers ( = 288; 452 ± 23 kg initial BW) were allocated to pens (36 pens and 8 heifers/pen), stratified by initial pen BW (3,612 ± 177 kg), and randomly assigned within strata to 1 of 4 treatments: 0, 50, 100, and 150 g·heifer·d of microalgae meal. After 89 d of feeding, cattle were harvested and LL were collected for determination of fatty acid composition and Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF), trained sensory panel evaluation, and 7-d retail color stability and lipid oxidation analyses. Feeding microalgae meal to heifers increased (quadratic, < 0.01) the content of 22:6-3 and increased (linear, < 0.01) the content of 20:5-3. Feeding increasing levels of microalgae meal did not impact total SFA or MUFA ( > 0.25) but tended ( = 0.10) to increase total PUFA in a quadratic manner ( = 0.03). Total omega-6 PUFA decreased (linear, = 0.01) and total omega-3 PUFA increased (quadratic, < 0.01) as microalgae meal level increased in the diet, which caused a decrease (quadratic, < 0.01) in the omega-6:omega-3 fatty acid ratio. Feeding microalgae meal did not affect WBSF values or sensory panel evaluation of tenderness, juiciness, or beef flavor scores ( > 0.16); however, off-flavor intensity increased with increasing concentration of microalgae meal in the diet (quadratic, < 0.01). From d 5 through 7 of retail display, steaks from heifers fed microalgae meal had a reduced a* value and oxymyoglobin surface percentage, with simultaneous increased surface metmyoglobin formation (quadratic, < 0.01). Lipid oxidation analysis indicated that at d 0 and 7 of display, as the concentration of microalgae meal increased in the diet, the level of oxidation increased (quadratic, < 0.01). Muscle fiber type percentage or size was not influenced by the inclusion of microalgae meal in diets ( > 0.19); therefore, the negative effects of microalgae on color stability were not due to fiber metabolism differences. Feeding microalgae meal to finishing heifers improves PUFA content of beef within the LL, but there are adverse effects on flavor and color stability.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine the effects of feeding microalgae meal (All-G Rich, CCAP 4087/2; Alltech Inc., Nicholasville, KY) to finishing heifers on 85% lean and 15% fat (85/15) ground beef PUFA content, palatability, and color stability. Crossbred heifers ( = 288; 452 ± 23 kg initial BW) were allocated to pens (36 pens and 8 heifers/pen), stratified by initial pen BW (3,612 ± 177 kg), and randomly assigned within strata to 1 of 4 treatments: 0, 50, 100, and 150 g·heifer·d of microalgae meal. After 89 d of feeding, a subset of heifers (3/pen) was harvested and the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius were collected for processing into ground beef. At 42 d postmortem, 85/15 ground beef was formulated and formed into 112-g patties and fatty acid composition, subjective palatability, and 96-h retail color stability analyses were conducted. Increasing dietary microalgae meal concentration increased ground beef 20:5-3 and 22:6-3 fatty acids (quadratic, < 0.01). There was a treatment × hour interaction for all color attributes ( < 0.01). On d 0, microalgae tended ( = 0.08) to decrease L*, but patties had similar L* values the remainder of display ( > 0.12). Feeding microalgae meal affected ( = 0.02) b* at 24 h and decreased (linear, = 0.08) b* at 48 h. From h 0 to 36 of display, microalgae affected redness of patties ( < 0.02), and from 48 to 72 h, microalgae meal decreased a* value (linear, < 0.04). Microalgae meal did not impact sensory panel firmness, overall tenderness, or juiciness scores ( > 0.20) but tended to affect ( = 0.10) cohesiveness scores. As the amount of microalgae meal fed to heifers increased, beef flavor intensity decreased (linear, < 0.01) and off-flavor intensity increased (quadratic, < 0.05). Surface oxymyoglobin and metmyoglobin were impacted by microalgae meal from 12 to 36 h of display ( < 0.01). From 48 to 84 h of display, feeding microalgae meal to heifers decreased (linear, < 0.09) surface oxymyoglobin and increased (linear, < 0.02) surface metmyoglobin of patties. Although feeding microalgae meal to heifers increases the PUFA content of 85/15 ground beef, there are undesirable effects on flavor and color stability.

Abstract
Trypanosoma cruzi can compromise the human central nervous system (CNS) during acute infection or reactivation in immune-suppressed hosts. Astrocytes have been identified as targets of T. cruzi's CNS infection in humans. Despite a high degree of parasitism and cellular lysis by T. cruzi in vitro the number of astrocytoma cells did not change when compared to uninfected cultures. This work evaluated cellular proliferation, changes in Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) expression as a reflection of antigen processing, and cytokine (IL-6 & IL-8) secretion in a human astrocytoma cell line exposed to a trypomastigote-derived antigen. Light microscopy was used to evaluate the number of cells; MHC molecule expression, cell cycle and cytokine secretion were assessed by flow cytometry. The number of astrocytoma cells increased proportional to the amount of antigen used and the percentage of cells in G2/M phase was higher when compared to control cultures. Antigen exposure increased expression of MHC class II, but not MHC class I in comparison to cultures incubated without antigen. Astrocytoma cell secretion of IL-6 and IL-8 was unaffected by antigen exposure. These results suggest the participation of a trypomastigote-derived mediator that induces astrocytoma cell proliferation without an inflammatory response; which may contribute to the pathogenesis of neurologic Chagas disease.
