Abstract
Purpose/Objective(s) In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, a single fraction peripheral lung SBRT program was established to minimize potential COVID-19 exposures. This analysis aims to review clinical and treatment characteristics and associated toxicities in appropriately selected patients for this newly implemented technique. Materials/Methods From May 2020 until Feb 2022, patients with peripheral lung tumors who met eligibility for 3400cGy in a single-fraction SBRT were treated at a tertiary academic cancer center. Patient, treatment, and toxicity parameters were retrospectively collected. Radiation dosimetric parameters were tabulated. Toxicities were quantified using CTCAE v5.0. Fisher's exact test was used to assess the differences in toxicities with clinical and dosimetric parameters. P-value < 0.05 was considered significant. Results 23 patients were analyzed with a median age of 72 years (IRQ: 67-80) and 61% were females. 96% were smokers and 43% had COPD. All patients were ECOG ≤ 2. Majority of patients (96%) had early-stage primary lung cancer while 4% had pulmonary oligometastatic cancer. 39% of patients were treated on SABR-BRIDGE protocol while another 35% were medically inoperable and 26% refused surgery. A total of 23 peripheral lesions were treated with median greatest dimension of 1.7 cm (IQR: 1.4-2), ITV 4.9 cm3 (IQR: 3.6-8.4) and PTV 18.1 cm3 (IQR: 12.8-26). 87% had PTV within 1 cm form chest wall. After median follow-up of 6 months (IQR: 2-12), 52% of patients experienced grade ≤ 2 toxicities and no patients experienced ≥ grade 3. Radiation pneumonitis was the most common toxicity (35%; 5/8 with asymptomatic radiographic) followed by fatigue (30%) and chest wall pain (30%; 3/7 with grade 2). Two patients (9%) had rib fractures. Chest wall pain was significantly higher in patients with tumor diameter >1.5 cm (p = 0.02). No other significant difference was observed between clinical or dosimetric parameters and development of radiation pneumonitis or chest wall pain (p > 0.05). On the other hand, patients with ribs fractures were observed to have larger tumors (mean 3.2 vs. 1.7 cm), ITVs (mean 30 vs. 11 cm3), PTVs (mean 61 vs. 16 cm3), chest wall V30Gy (mean 4.8 vs. 0.4 cm3), and ribs V30Gy (mean 1.1 vs. 0.1 cm3). Only 1 patient had local failure after 12 months while another patient on SABR-BRIDGE underwent surgical resection after 6 months in which there were 20% viable tumor cells. Conclusion Single fraction peripheral lung SBRT is a practical and safe option with no grade ≥ 3 toxicity. Our observed toxicities are within previously reported ranges. We observed that patients with rib fractures had larger tumors and higher V30Gy to chest wall and ribs. Careful patient selection and dosimetric efforts to limit high fall-off dose to chest wall and ribs may limit these toxicities.

Abstract
Background and study aims Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), the most common method used for diagnosing upper gastrointestinal diseases, is often limited by the presence of foam and mucous. Thus, this study was designed to detect whether the combination of simethicone with N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) as premedication before EGD improves mucosal visualization. Patients and methods A total of 768 consenting patients were enrolled in this prospective, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial in four groups (A: simethicone + N-acetyl cysteine; B: simethicone alone; C: NAC alone; and D: placebo). After 20 minutes of consuming the corresponding solution, EGD was done and multiple images were obtained from the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Based on the various images obtained, the study parameters were calculated. Statistical Analysis Software (SAS) was used to analyze the results using Kruskal-Wallis with the Bonferroni correction method. Results The study population consisted of 57 % men and the mean age was 44.18 years. Each group was randomized with 192 participants. Group A (combination of simethicone + NAC) premedication had the lowest total mucosal visibility score of 8.31, a significantly lower score for mucous/bubbles obscuring the vision, and less time to complete the procedure. Also, 81 % of the participants in group A did not require flushing to clear the mucous/bubbles. There were no side effects due to this premedication in any of the groups. Conclusions Using simethicone and NAC combined for premedication may improve the quality of EGD.

Abstract
Fulminant myocarditis is characterized by life threatening heart failure presenting as cardiogenic shock requiring inotropic or mechanical circulatory support to maintain tissue perfusion. There are limited data on the role of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in the management of fulminant myocarditis. This review seeks to evaluate the management of fulminant myocarditis with a special emphasis on the role and outcomes with VA-ECMO use.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to understand the attitudes, beliefs, and concerns of physicians across India regarding the economic burden of diabetes and subsequently the cost-effectiveness of low-cost dapagliflozin for the management of patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on background metformin therapy in Indian clinical settings. Method A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among physicians treating people with T2DM with or without complications. The questions covered the general aspects of affordability and adherence to diabetes medications as well as specific details of low-cost dapagliflozin and its cost-effectiveness. Results In total, 844 physicians provided a response to the survey questionnaire. The physicians who participated in the study included diabetologists, endocrinologists, cardiologists, consulting physicians, and family physicians. A majority of the physicians (53%) opined that only 10%-30% of their patients can afford the cost of newer antidiabetic medicines, while 25% of the physicians mentioned that <10% of their patients had issues related to affordability. Further, 39% of the physicians opined that 20%-40% of their patients discontinue the medicines due to high cost. Most of the physicians (95%) agreed that due to the low cost of dapagliflozin, it can be used for the primary prevention of heart failure in patients with T2DM in India. Similarly, 98% of the physicians agreed that it can be used for the treatment of heart failure in patients with or without T2DM in India. A majority of these physicians (93%) responded that switching from expensive sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) to low-cost dapagliflozin is a long-term cost-effective management of T2DM. In total, 98% of the physicians agreed that low-cost dapagliflozin has the characteristics of an ideal SGLT2i because of its metabolic benefits, cardioprotection, nephroprotection, and potential cost-effectiveness. Conclusion This survey-based study indicates that dapagliflozin is an effective and cost-saving therapy for patients with T2DM and complications. Low-cost dapagliflozin can revolutionize the treatment of T2DM in the Indian setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current guidelines recommend medications with rate control properties for symptomatic patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) based on the rationale that lowering heart rate (HR) improves their symptoms. Whether sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is associated with increased HR in HCM patients is not known. METHOD We diagnosed uncontrolled SDB (oxygen desaturation index ≥5) in consecutive echocardiographically confirmed HCM patients seen at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, and analyzed their HR as recorded by a 24-h Holter monitor. We compared mean, minimum, maximum HR between those with vs without SDB. In a pilot subanalysis of HCM patients with SDB who also underwent subsequent diagnostic polysomnography (PSG), we analyzed RR interval changes coinciding with obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea episodes. RESULTS Of the 230 HCM patients included in this study (age 54 ± 16 years; 138 male; LVOT pressure gradient at rest 45 ± 39 mmHg), 115 (50%) patients had SDB. HCM patients with SDB were recorded to have higher mean HR (71 vs. 67 bpm; p = .002, adjusted p = .001), and this difference was most pronounced during night hours of 10 PM to 5 AM (61 vs. 67 bpm; p < .001). In the pilot analysis of the available PSG data, the release of obstructive sleep apneas and hypopneas coincided with fluctuation of HR. CONCLUSIONS SDB is independently associated with higher mean HR in patients with HCM, and this difference is most significant during sleep. Treatment of SDB, which is readily available, should be tested as a complementary modality to the currently recommended pharmacotherapy aimed at lowering HR in patients with symptomatic HCM.

Abstract
Ever since the discovery of insulin a century ago, relentless attempts have been made to develop insulins that closely mimic the timeaction- profile of human physiologic insulin. The early basal insulins like neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH), were intermediate-acting, with high risk of hypoglycemia. These primary limitations led to attempts at developing improved basal insulins with a longer duration of action. After several attempts at prolonging insulin action using phenol and structural modifications of the insulin hexamer, insulin glargine was developed in 1988. The superior and unique pharmacological properties, longer duration of action, and significantly lowered risk of hypoglycemia enabled insulin glargine to be distinguished from NPH as a better basal insulin, providing holistic glycemic control. The present review highlights the circumstances that led to the search of truly basal insulins, focusing on the journey of insulin glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100).

Abstract
Casestudy
Urinalysis is important to assess disease activity in Lupus nephritis (LN). Hematuria, pyuria, cellular/granular casts and proteinuria are scored separately for assessing renal activity in SLEDAI. However, pyuria is not specific, and could indicate infection. We studied the correlation of microscopic urinalysis and degree of lymphocyturia with histological ISN/RPS 2018 class of LN.
Methods
Pre-biopsy urine was collected in 76 LN patients. The urine sediment was analyzed using light and phase- contrast microscope. Smear stained with supravital stain Sternheimer Malbin, was assessed semi-quantitatively for lymphocytes (per HPF). Renal biopsy was classified into proliferative (Class III/IV ± V)[N=64] and non-proliferative LN (Class I, II, V, VI) [N=12].
Results
48 patients had active urinary sediment. Cellular and/or granular casts were identified only in proliferativeLN (n=15/64; 23.4%). Hematuria (Range 0-65/HPF) was seen in 45 patients. Dysmorphic RBCs were identified in proliferative (n=17/41; mean 9.9 RBCs/HPF) and were absent in non-proliferative LN (mean 1.4 RBCs/HPF). 20 of the 34 patients with pyuria showed predominant lymphocytes. Lymphocyturia (Range 0-20/HPF) was significantly higher in proliferative LN (Mean 4.6/HPF) as compared to non-proliferative LN (Mean 1.5/HPF). Degree of pyuria or proteinuria had no correlation with biopsy class or activity. Lymphocyturia and hematuria showed correlation with biopsy activity index (r=0.30 and 0.39; p<0.05 and <0.001 respectively). A cut-off of average 6 RBCs/HPF or 5 lymphocytes/HPF could correctly identify proliferative LN with 100% specificity (p<0.001; AUC 0.72 and 0.74 respectively, combined AUC 0.81) and sensitivity of 0.42 and 0.36 respectively.
Conclusion
Although renal biopsy is the gold standard for assessment of renal lesions in LN, urine lymphocytes ≥5 and RBCs ≥6/HPF have a high specificity to differentiate proliferative and non-proliferative LN. This may be especially important in patients having comorbidities contraindicating a renal biopsy. Defining urine sediments using lymphocytes can increase the specificity of clinical activity indices.

Abstract
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited cardiomyopathy and sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a treatable risk factor that has been seen to occur concurrently, and is known to propagate mortality and morbidity in a number of cardiovascular disease states including heart failure, and indeed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In this review, we summarize past studies that explored the simultaneous occurrence of HCM and SDB, and the pathophysiology of SDB in relation to heart failure, arrhythmias, cardiac ischemia and pulmonary hypertension in HCM. The current therapeutic modalities, with the effect of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment on HCM, are then discussed along with potential future directions.

Abstract
Sleep apnea is very common in patients with cardiovascular disease, especially in patients with hypertension. Over the last few decades a number of discoveries have helped support a causal relationship between the two and even resistant hypertension. The role neurogenic mechanisms play has gathered more attention in the recent past due to their immediate bedside utility. Several innovative discoveries in pathogenesis including those exploring the role of baroreflex gain, cardiovascular variability, chemoreceptor reflex activation and the sympathetic nervous system have emerged. In this review, we discuss the epidemiology of sleep apnea and hypertension and the pathogenic mechanisms contributing to neurogenic hypertension. Furthermore, recent management strategies in addition to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), such as upper airway stimulation and renal denervation that target these pathogenic mechanisms, are also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Modern sulfonylureas like glimepiride offer effective glycemic control with extrapancreatic benefits and good tolerability. The objective of the present study was to evaluate and compare safety and efficacy of glimepiride and sitagliptin in combination with metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS In this open-label, randomized, comparative, multicenter study, a total of 305 T2DM patients who were either drug naïve or uncontrolled on metformin were randomized to glimepiride 1 or 2 mg/sustained-release metformin 1000 mg once daily (glimepiride group, n = 202) or sitagliptin 50 mg/metformin 500 mg twice daily (sitagliptin group, n = 103) for 12 weeks. Primary endpoint was change in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Secondary endpoints were change in fasting plasma glucose (FPG), postprandial plasma glucose (PPG), body mass index (BMI) and to assess overall safety profile. RESULTS At 12 weeks, there was a statistically significant difference in the mean HbA1c reduction in glimepiride group (0.42%) as compared to sitagliptin group (0.30%) (P = 0.001). Mean reduction in FPG and PPG was also statistically significant in the glimepiride group as compared to the sitagliptin group (P = 0.008). There was no significant difference in terms of change in BMI (0.07 ± 0.39 kg/m2 vs. 0.08 ± 0.31 kg/m2) in glimepiride and sitagliptin groups, respectively, (P = 0.644) between both the groups. The incidences of hypoglycemic events were also comparable among both the groups. CONCLUSION In T2DM patients, glimepiride/metformin combination exhibited significant reduction in glycemic parameters as compared to sitagliptin/metformin combination. Moreover, there was no significant difference between both the groups in terms of change in BMI and incidence of hypoglycemia.

Abstract
A primary objective of the eMouseAtlas Project is to enable 3D spatial mapping of whole embryo gene expression data to capture complex 3D patterns for indexing, visualization, cross-comparison and analysis. For this we have developed a spatio-temporal framework based on 3D models of embryos at different stages of development coupled with an anatomical ontology. Here we introduce a method of defining coordinate axes that correspond to the anatomical or biologically relevant anterior–posterior (A–P), dorsal–ventral (D–V) and left–right (L–R) directions. These enable more sophisticated query and analysis of the data with biologically relevant associations, and provide novel data visualizations that can reveal patterns that are otherwise difficult to detect in the standard 3D coordinate space. These anatomical coordinates are defined using the concept of a ‘straight mouse-embryo’ within which the anatomical coordinates are Cartesian. The straight embryo model has been mapped via a complex non-linear transform onto the standard embryo model. We explore the utility of this anatomical coordinate system in elucidating the spatial relationship of spatially mapped embryonic ‘Fibroblast growth factor’ gene expression patterns, and we discuss the importance of this technology in summarizing complex multimodal mouse embryo image data from gene expression and anatomy studies.

Abstract
This study examines how national cultural values influence the preferences of managers in 28 countries for resolving the tension of whether to promote innovation inside (rational championing) or outside (renegade championing) organizational norms, rules and procedures. The study finds that managers in individualistic, high power-distant and uncertainty accepting societies prefer renegade strategies, while managers in collectivist, low power-distant and uncertainty avoiding societies prefer rational championing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several synthetic drugs are useful in the treatment of peptic ulcer, but almost of these drugs are used in prolonging time, it may cause several adverse reactions. However, the herbal medicines are more potent to the treatment and minimize the side effects. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the methanol extract of Jatropha gossypiifolia Linn. (MEJG) for gastro protective activity against Wistar rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Anti-ulcer potency of MEJG (100 and 200 mg/kg, b.w.) was assessed using aspirin (200 mg/kg, p.o.) plus pylorus ligation ulcer model and the parameters studied were ulcer index (UI), gastric juice volume, pH, total acidity, and total acid output. Same extract was studied by ethanol-induced (80%, 5 mL/kg, intragastrically) ulcer model, and the UI and biochemical parameters were studied. RESULTS The oral administration of MEJG (100 and 200 mg/kg) significantly (P < 0.001) attenuated the ulcer score and anti-secretary parameters (such as the volume of gastric content, free acidity, total acidity, and total acid output) in the aspirin plus pylorus ligation rats. The extract also significantly attenuated (P < 0.001) ulcer score in ethanol-induced ulcer model and lipid peroxidation level and significantly increased the level of glutathione peroxides, catalase, and superoxide dismutase activity. The MEJG may possess active constituents such as alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, and terpenes, which may play a major role in gastroprotective effect in Wistar rats. CONCLUSION The present study provides scientific support for the anti-ulcer activities of extracts of JG and also claimed that antioxidant potential of the extracts. However, substantiates the traditional claims for the usage of this drug in the treatment of gastric ulcer. SUMMARY The methanolic extract of jatropha gossypiifolia Linn. for gastro protective activity against aspirin plus pyloric ligation and ethanol induced ulcer models was studied in Wistar rats. JG shows significantly attenuated the ulcer score in both models. And also attenuated in anti-secretory parameters in aspirin induced ulcer model. MEJG may possess active constituents such as alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids and terpenes, which may play a major role in gastroprotective effect in Wistar rats.

Abstract
CONTEXT Hypoxia injury (HI) with its long-term neurological complications is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the world. Currently, the treatment regimens for hypoxia are aimed only at ameliorating the damage without complete cure. The need, therefore, for novel therapeutic drugs to treat HI continues. OBJECTIVE This study investigates the protective effects of the ethanol extract of Cyperus rotundus L. (Cyperaceae) (EECR), a medicinal plant used in Ayurvedic traditional medicine against sodium nitrite-induced hypoxia in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS We have evaluated the protective effect of 200 and 400 mg/kg of EECR against sodium nitrite-induced hypoxia injury in rats by assessing the cognitive functions, motor, and behavioral effects of EECR treatment along with the histological changes in the brain. By comparing the protective effects of standard drugs galantamine, a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor and pyritinol, an antioxidant nootropic drug against sodium nitrite-induced hypoxia in rats, we have tested the protective ability of EECR. RESULTS EECR at doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg was able to protect against the cognitive impairments, and the locomotor activity and muscular coordination defects, which are affected by sodium nitrite-induced hypoxia injury in rats. CONCLUSION Based on our results, we suggest that the medicinal herb C. rotundus possesses a protective effect against sodium nitrite-induced hypoxia in rats. Further studies on these protective effects of EECR may help in designing better therapeutic regimes for hypoxia injury.

Abstract
The theory of optical activity presented in an earlier paper has been applied to helical structures, obtaining a compact formula for the residue rotation [m′]λ0. In particular, the theory has been applied to the α-helix, and this theory consists of two parts: firstly the calculation of the magnitude and orientation of the polarisability tensor ellipsoid of the peptide residue from the locations of the atoms in it and secondly the calculation of optical activity. The calculated value of [m']D for a right handed α-helix is about +100° which is in excellent agreement with the experimental value for most L polypeptides. Also the sign of the optical rotation does not change on varying the polarisability tensor over a wide range. Consequently the absolute configuration of the α-helix in those L polypeptides which have a positive value for [m′]D is shown to be right handed.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a known modulator of angiogenesis. The NONOate subfamily of NO donors has long been used in experimental and clinical studies to promote angiogenesis. However, no studies have been conducted yet to compare the angiogenesis potential of these NO donors in respect to their pattern of NO release. We hypothesize that having different pattern of NO release, each of the NO donors in NONOate subfamily can promote key stages of angiogenesis in differential manner. To verify our hypothesis, NO donors with half life ranging from seconds to several hours and having very different pattern of NO release were selected to evaluate their efficacy in modulating angiogenesis. Endothelial tube formation using EAhy926 cells was maximally increased by Spermine NONOate (SP) treatment. SP treatment maximally induced both ex vivo and in vivo angiogenesis using egg yolk and cotton plug angiogenesis models respectively. Experiment using chick embryo partial ischemia model revealed SP as the best suited NO donor to recover ischemia driven hampered angiogenesis. The present study elaborated that differential release pattern of NO by different NO donors can modulate angiogenesis differentially and also suggested that SP have a unique pattern of NO release that best fits for angiogenesis.

Abstract
ABSTRACTIn this study, continuous microscratch testing was used to determine the effects of compressive residual stresses on the fracture of thin tantalum nitride films. The films were sputter deposited at room temperature onto single crystal sapphire substrates to a thickness of 600 nm. Some films were left in the as-deposited condition while the remaining films were vacuum annealed at 300°C. The only discernible change in structure was a surface rearrangement of atoms into parallel arrays of striations on the vacuum annealed samples revealing a high compressive residual stress in the films. These stresses had a strong effect on fracture as shown by the as-deposited films which buckled readily during scratch tests forming uniform-width and circular blisters while the vacuum annealed films exhibited a much lower susceptibility to fracture. Application of mechanics-based models for film buckling defined the levels of compressive residual stress and their effect on interfacial fracture.

Abstract
An aqueous root extract from Nardostachys jatamansi was investigated for its antioxidant and anticataleptic effects in the haloperidol-induced catalepsy rat model of the disease by measuring various behavioral and biochemical parameters. Catalepsy was induced by administration of haloperidol (1 mg/kg, ip) in male albino rats. A significant (P < 0.01) reduction in the cataleptic scores were observed in all the drug-treated groups as compared to the haloperidol-treated group; with maximum reduction observed in the Nardostachys jatamansi (250 and 500 mg/kg body weight) administered group. To estimate biochemical parameters: the generation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS); reduced glutathione (GSH) content and glutathione-dependent enzymes; catalase; and superoxide dismutase (SOD), in the brain were assessed. Haloperidol administration increased generation of TBARS and significantly reduced GSH, which were restored to near normal level with the Nardostachys jatamansi treatment. Catalase and SOD levels were also increased to normal levels, having been reduced significantly by haloperidol administration. Our findings of behavioral studies and biochemical estimations show that Nardostachys jatamansi reversed the haloperidol-induced catalepsy in rats. We conclude that the antioxidant potential has contributed to the reduction in the oxidative stress and catalepsy induced by haloperidol administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Nitric oxide (NO) promotes angiogenesis by activating endothelial cells. Thalidomide arrests angiogenesis by interacting with the NO pathway, but its putative targets are not known. Here, we have attempted to identify these targets. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Cell-based angiogenesis assays (wound healing of monolayers and tube formation in ECV304, EAhy926 and bovine arterial endothelial cells), along with ex vivo and in vivo angiogenesis assays, were used to explore interactions between thalidomide and NO. We also carried out in silico homology modelling and docking studies to elucidate possible molecular interactions of thalidomide and soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC). KEY RESULTS Thalidomide inhibited pro-angiogenic functions in endothelial cell cultures, whereas 8-bromo-cGMP, sildenafil (a phosphodiesterase inhibitor) or a NO donor [sodium nitroprusside (SNP)] increased these functions. The inhibitory effects of thalidomide were reversed by adding 8-bromo-cGMP or sildenafil, but not by SNP. Immunoassays showed a concentration-dependent decrease of cGMP in endothelial cells with thalidomide, without affecting the expression level of sGC protein. These results suggested that thalidomide inhibited the activity of sGC. Molecular modelling and docking experiments revealed that thalidomide could interact with the catalytic domain of sGC, which would explain the inhibitory effects of thalidomide on NO-dependent angiogenesis. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Our results showed that thalidomide interacted with sGC, suppressing cGMP levels in endothelial cells, thus exerting its anti-angiogenic effects. These results could lead to the formulation of thalidomide-based drugs to curb angiogenesis by targeting sGC.

Abstract
Late-onset cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease commonly occurs after discontinuation of antiviral prophylaxis. We determined the utility of testing CD8+ T-cell response against CMV as a predictor of late-onset CMV disease after a standard course of antiviral prophylaxis. Transplant patients at high-risk for CMV disease were enrolled. CD8+ T-cell-mediated immunity (CMI) was tested using the QuantiFERON-CMV assay at baseline, 1, 2 and 3 months posttransplant by measurement of interferon-gamma response to whole blood stimulation with a 21-peptide pool. The primary outcome was the ability of CMI testing to predict CMV disease in the first 6 months posttransplant. There were 108 evaluable patients (D+/R+ n = 39; D-/R+ n = 34; D+/R- n = 35) of whom 18 (16.7%) developed symptomatic CMV disease. At the end of prophylaxis, CMI was detectable in 38/108 (35.2%) patients (cutoff 0.1 IU/mL interferon-gamma). CMV disease occurred in 2/38 (5.3%) patients with a detectable interferon-gamma response versus 16/70 (22.9%) patients with a negative response; p = 0.038. In the subgroup of D+/R- patients, CMV disease occurred in 1/10 (10.0%) patients with a detectable interferon-gamma response (cutoff 0.1 IU/mL) versus 10/25 (40.0%) patients with a negative CMI, p = 0.12. Monitoring of CMI may be useful for predicting late-onset CMV disease.

Abstract
Prediction of downwind tritium air concentrations in the environment around Kakrapar Atomic Power Station (KAPS) was studied on the basis of Gaussian plume dispersion model. The tritium air concentration by field measurement [measured tritium air concentrations in the areas adjacent to KAPS] were compared with the theoretically calculated values (predicted) to validate the model. This approach will be useful in evaluating environmental radiological impacts due to pressurised heavy water reactors.
