Abstract: Over the past few decades, neuroimaging has become a ubiquitous tool in basic research and clinical studies of the human brain. However, no reference standards currently exist to quantify individual differences in neuroimaging metrics over time, in contrast to growth charts for anthropometric traits such as height and weight1. Here we assemble an interactive open resource to benchmark brain morphology derived from any current or future sample of MRI data ( http://www.brainchart.io/ ). With the goal of basing these reference charts on the largest and most inclusive dataset available, acknowledging limitations due to known biases of MRI studies relative to the diversity of the global population, we aggregated 123,984 MRI scans, across more than 100 primary studies, from 101,457 human participants between 115 days post-conception to 100 years of age. MRI metrics were quantified by centile scores, relative to non-linear trajectories2 of brain structural changes, and rates of change, over the lifespan. Brain charts identified previously unreported neurodevelopmental milestones3, showed high stability of individuals across longitudinal assessments, and demonstrated robustness to technical and methodological differences between primary studies. Centile scores showed increased heritability compared with non-centiled MRI phenotypes, and provided a standardized measure of atypical brain structure that revealed patterns of neuroanatomical variation across neurological and psychiatric disorders. In summary, brain charts are an essential step towards robust quantification of individual variation benchmarked to normative trajectories in multiple, commonly used neuroimaging phenotypes.

4. The use of magnetic resonance imaging techniques in assessing the effects of alcohol consumption and heavy drinking on the adolescent brain: A scoping review protocol

Author: Hornsby, N., Seedat, S., Westman, E., Wahlund, L.O., Siegfried, N., Erasmus-Claassen, L.A., Myers-Franchi, Bronwyn, Hornsby, N., Seedat, S., Westman, E., Wahlund, L.O., Siegfried, N., Erasmus-Claassen, L.A., and Myers-Franchi, Bronwyn
Abstract: Introduction: Alcohol consumption, specifically heavy drinking during adolescence, has been shown to be accompanied by adverse structural brain changes in adolescent drinkers. This scoping review will aim to quantify and evaluate the quality of studies in which magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques are used to assess regional brain deficits among adolescents who consume alcohol. Methods and analysis: This scoping review will be conducted following the Arksey and O’Malley scoping review methodology framework and will be reported using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. Literature will be searched for the period January 1999 to March 2021. Two reviewers will independently screen titles/abstracts and full-texts in two consecutive screening stages. Eligible studies will be independently reviewed to ensure that inclusion criteria are met. Cohen’s Kappa (κ) will be used to calculate inter-rater agreement. A third reviewer will resolve any disagreements. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Appraisal Tools will be used for quality appraisal of the included studies. Findings will be reported by means of a narrative overview, tabular presentation of study characteristics, and quality assessment, and a thematic analysis of major themes. This scoping review has been registered with the Open Science Framework. Ethics and dissemination: Scoping reviews do not require ethical approval, however, this review forms part of a larger study that has obtained approval from the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, Health Research Ethics Committee at Stellenbosch University (S20/04/086). Findings will be disseminated by means of peer-reviewed publications and conferences.

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 225402.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access), Brainstem regions support vital bodily functions, yet their genetic architectures and involvement in common brain disorders remain understudied. Here, using imaging-genetics data from a discovery sample of 27,034 individuals, we identify 45 brainstem-associated genetic loci, including the first linked to midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata volumes, and map them to 305 genes. In a replication sample of 7432 participants most of the loci show the same effect direction and are significant at a nominal threshold. We detect genetic overlap between brainstem volumes and eight psychiatric and neurological disorders. In additional clinical data from 5062 individuals with common brain disorders and 11,257 healthy controls, we observe differential volume alterations in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, multiple sclerosis, mild cognitive impairment, dementia, and Parkinson's disease, supporting the relevance of brainstem regions and their genetic architectures in common brain disorders.

6. The heterogeneous functional architecture of the posteromedial cortex is associated with selective functional connectivity differences in Alzheimer's disease

Abstract: The posteromedial cortex (PMC) is a key region involved in the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Previous studies have demonstrated a heterogenous functional architecture of the region that is composed of discrete functional modules reflecting a complex pattern of functional connectivity. However, little is understood about the mechanisms underpinning this complex network architecture in neurodegenerative disease, and the differential vulnerability of connectivity-based subdivisions in the PMC to AD pathogenesis. Using a data-driven approach, we applied a constrained independent component analysis (ICA) on healthy adults from the Human Connectome Project to characterise the local functional connectivity patterns within the PMC, and its unique whole-brain functional connectivity. These distinct connectivity profiles were subsequently quantified in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative study, to examine functional connectivity differences in AD patients and cognitively normal (CN) participants, as well as the entire AD pathological spectrum. Our findings revealed decreased functional connectivity in the anterior precuneus, dorsal posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), and the central precuneus in AD patients compared to CN participants. Functional abnormalities in the dorsal PCC and central precuneus were also related to amyloid burden and volumetric hippocampal loss. Across the entire AD spectrum, functional connectivity of the central precuneus was associated with disease severity and specific deficits in memory and executive function. These findings provide new evidence showing that the PMC is selectively impacted in AD, with prominent network failures of the dorsal PCC and central precuneus underpinning the neurodegenerative and cognitive dysfunctions associated with the disease.

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 225402.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access), Brainstem regions support vital bodily functions, yet their genetic architectures and involvement in common brain disorders remain understudied. Here, using imaging-genetics data from a discovery sample of 27,034 individuals, we identify 45 brainstem-associated genetic loci, including the first linked to midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata volumes, and map them to 305 genes. In a replication sample of 7432 participants most of the loci show the same effect direction and are significant at a nominal threshold. We detect genetic overlap between brainstem volumes and eight psychiatric and neurological disorders. In additional clinical data from 5062 individuals with common brain disorders and 11,257 healthy controls, we observe differential volume alterations in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, multiple sclerosis, mild cognitive impairment, dementia, and Parkinson's disease, supporting the relevance of brainstem regions and their genetic architectures in common brain disorders.

Abstract: Subcortical brain structures are integral to motion, consciousness, emotions and learning. We identified common genetic variation related to the volumes of the nucleus accumbens, amygdala, brainstem, caudate nucleus, globus pallidus, putamen and thalamus, using genome-wide association analyses in almost 40,000 individuals from CHARGE, ENIGMA and UK Biobank. We show that variability in subcortical volumes is heritable, and identify 48 significantly associated loci (40 novel at the time of analysis). Annotation of these loci by utilizing gene expression, methylation and neuropathological data identified 199 genes putatively implicated in neurodevelopment, synaptic signaling, axonal transport, apoptosis, inflammation/infection and susceptibility to neurological disorders. This set of genes is significantly enriched for Drosophila orthologs associated with neurodevelopmental phenotypes, suggesting evolutionarily conserved mechanisms. Our findings uncover novel biology and potential drug targets underlying brain development and disease.

Abstract: Subcortical brain structures are integral to motion, consciousness, emotions and learning. We identified common genetic variation related to the volumes of the nucleus accumbens, amygdala, brainstem, caudate nucleus, globus pallidus, putamen and thalamus, using genome-wide association analyses in almost 40,000 individuals from CHARGE, ENIGMA and UK Biobank. We show that variability in subcortical volumes is heritable, and identify 48 significantly associated loci (40 novel at the time of analysis). Annotation of these loci by utilizing gene expression, methylation and neuropathological data identified 199 genes putatively implicated in neurodevelopment, synaptic signaling, axonal transport, apoptosis, inflammation/infection and susceptibility to neurological disorders. This set of genes is significantly enriched for Drosophila orthologs associated with neurodevelopmental phenotypes, suggesting evolutionarily conserved mechanisms. Our findings uncover novel biology and potential drug targets underlying brain development and disease.

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 208604.pdf (publisher's version ) (Closed access), Common risk factors for psychiatric and other brain disorders are likely to converge on biological pathways influencing the development and maintenance of brain structure and function across life. Using structural MRI data from 45,615 individuals aged 3-96 years, we demonstrate distinct patterns of apparent brain aging in several brain disorders and reveal genetic pleiotropy between apparent brain aging in healthy individuals and common brain disorders.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: To find cut-off values for different medial temporal lobe atrophy (MTA) measures (right, left, average, and highest), accounting for gender and education, investigate the association with cognitive performance, and to compare with decline of cognitive function over 5 years in a large population-based cohort. METHODS: Three hundred and ninety 75-year-old individuals were examined with magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and cognitive testing. The Scheltens's scale was used to assess visually MTA scores (0-4) in all subjects. Cognitive tests were repeated in 278 of them after 5 years. Normal MTA cut-off values were calculated based on the 10th percentile. RESULTS: Most 75-year-old individuals had MTA score ≤2. Men had significantly higher MTA scores than women. Scores for left and average MTA were significantly higher in highly educated individuals. Abnormal MTA was associated with worse results in cognitive test and individuals with abnormal right MTA had faster cognitive decline. CONCLUSION: At age 75, gender and education are confounders for MTA grading. A score of ≥2 is abnormal for low-educated women and a score of ≥2.5 is abnormal for men and high-educated women. Subjects with abnormal right MTA, but normal MMSE scores had developed worse MMSE scores 5 years later. KEY POINTS: • Gender and education are confounders for MTA grading. • We suggest cut-off values for 75-year-olds, taking gender and education into account. • Males have higher MTA scores than women. • Higher MTA scores are associated with worse cognitive performance.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Depression is associated with accelerated aging and age-related diseases. However, mechanisms underlying this relationship remain unclear. The aim of this study was to longitudinally assess the link between depressive symptoms, brain atrophy, and cortisol levels. METHOD: Participants from the Betula prospective cohort study (mean age = 59 years, SD = 13.4 years) underwent clinical, neuropsychological and brain 3T MRI assessments at baseline and a 4-year follow-up. Cortisol levels were measured at baseline in four saliva samples. Cortical and hippocampal atrophy rates were estimated and compared between participants with and without depressive symptoms (n = 81) and correlated with cortisol levels (n = 49). RESULTS: Atrophy in the left superior frontal gyrus and right lingual gyrus developed in parallel with depressive symptoms, and in the left temporal pole, superior temporal cortex, and supramarginal cortex after the onset of depressive symptom. Depression-related atrophy was significantly associated with elevated cortisol levels. Elevated cortisol levels were also associated with widespread prefrontal, parietal, lateral, and medial temporal atrophy. CONCLUSION: Depressive symptoms and elevated cortisol levels are associated with atrophy of the prefrontal and limbic areas of the brain.

18. The b-value evolution of mining-induced seismicity and mainshock occurrences at hard-rock mines

Author: Ma Xu, Counter D., Slaker B., Thibodeau D., Westman E., Ma Xu, Counter D., Slaker B., Thibodeau D., and Westman E.
Abstract: An investigation of temporal variations of seismic b-values associated with mining-induced seismicity and mainshock sequences in two Canadian hard-rock underground-mine case studies (Creighton and Kidd mine sites) is presented. The application of the maximum likelihood method to evaluate the goodness of fit for a variety of moment magnitudes and to determine an optimal magnitude of completeness for computing the b-value of each time period in the mines is described. The results indicate that, in the b-value vs time plots for both mines, the b-value initially decreases and subsequently increases, with the formation of an elbow point, prior to the occurrence of mainshocks. The appearance of an elbow point is potentially useful as an indicator for the forecasting of mainshocks., An investigation of temporal variations of seismic b-values associated with mining-induced seismicity and mainshock sequences in two Canadian hard-rock underground-mine case studies (Creighton and Kidd mine sites) is presented.

Abstract: Background Biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology and progression have now been identified across various modalities. The aims of the two studies presented (ANM-MMB and EMIF-AD biomarker discovery) are to discover and replicate previously identified biomarkers of disease pathology and progression, and moreover to determine whether a multimodal biomarker signature may add value in comparison to a biomarker of a single modality. Methods The ANM-MMB cohort is comprised of 718 AD, MCI converters and non-converters, and control subjects selected from the AddNeuroMed, Alzheimer’s research trust and Dementia case register cohorts. Cognitive measures, serum and urine metabolomics, structural MRI, genomics, whole blood transcriptomics and plasma proteomics data was available. The EMIF-AD biomarker discovery cohort consists of 1221 AD, MCI and control subjects, selected from the EMIF catalogue. All subjects had existing amyloid measures (CSF Aβ or amyloid-PET), structural MRI and clinical data, and furthermore plasma proteomics (targeted and untargeted), CSF proteomics (targeted), metabolomics, genomics and epigenetics data were generated. For both studies univariate and multivariate statistics were utilised to identify candidate biomarkers of AD pathology (neurodegeneration and/or brain amyloid burden), rates of cognitive decline, and MCI progression to dementia. pQTL-eQTL-mQTL analyses, network/pathway analysis, and multimodal classifiers were employed to detect multimodal signatures. Results Initial analyses indicate that in the ANM-MMB study a serum and urine derived 15 metabolite classifier predicts MCI progression to AD with 72% accuracy, and the biological significance of the metabolites included in the biomarker panel was identified. Further analyses will examine whether a multimodal classifier is able to predict with even greater accuracy. We will then seek to replicate this in the EMIF-AD biomarker discovery study. Further analyses will also examine single

Abstract: The hippocampal formation is a brain structure integrally involved in episodic memory, spatial navigation, cognition and stress responsiveness. Structural abnormalities in hippocampal volume and shape are found in several common neuropsychiatric disorders. To identify the genetic underpinnings of hippocampal structure here we perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 33,536 individuals and discover six independent loci significantly associated with hippocampal volume, four of them novel. Of the novel loci, three lie within genes (ASTN2, DPP4 and MAST4) and one is found 200 kb upstream of SHH. A hippocampal subfield analysis shows that a locus within the MSRB3 gene shows evidence of a localized effect along the dentate gyrus, subiculum, CA1 and fissure. Further, we show that genetic variants associated with decreased hippocampal volume are also associated with increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (rg =-0.155). Our findings suggest novel biological pathways through which human genetic variation influences hippocampal volume and risk for neuropsychiatric illness.

Abstract: The hippocampal formation is a brain structure integrally involved in episodic memory, spatial navigation, cognition and stress responsiveness. Structural abnormalities in hippocampal volume and shape are found in several common neuropsychiatric disorders. To identify the genetic underpinnings of hippocampal structure here we perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 33,536 individuals and discover six independent loci significantly associated with hippocampal volume, four of them novel. Of the novel loci, three lie within genes (ASTN2, DPP4 and MAST4) and one is found 200 kb upstream of SHH. A hippocampal subfield analysis shows that a locus within the MSRB3 gene shows evidence of a localized effect along the dentate gyrus, subiculum, CA1 and fissure. Further, we show that genetic variants associated with decreased hippocampal volume are also associated with increased risk for Alzheimer’s disease (rg=−0.155). Our findings suggest novel biological pathways through which human genetic variation influences hippocampal volume and risk for neuropsychiatric illness.

Abstract: Alzheimer's disease is characterized by hippocampal atrophy. Other factors also influence the hippocampal volume, but their interactive effect has not been investigated before in cognitively healthy individuals. The aim of this study is to evaluate the interactive effect of key demographic and clinical factors on hippocampal volume, in contrast to previous studies frequently investigating these factors in a separate manner. Also, to investigate how comparable the control groups from ADNI, AIBL, and AddNeuroMed are with five population-based cohorts. In this study, 1958 participants were included (100 AddNeuroMed, 226 ADNI, 155 AIBL, 59 BRC, 295 GENIC, 279 BioFiNDER, 398 PIVUS, and 446 SNAC-K). ANOVA and random forest were used for testing between-cohort differences in demographic-clinical variables. Multiple regression was used to study the influence of demographic-clinical variables on hippocampal volume. ANCOVA was used to analyze whether between-cohort differences in demographic-clinical variables explained between-cohort differences in hippocampal volume. Age and global brain atrophy were the most important variables in explaining variability in hippocampal volume. These variables were not only important themselves but also in interaction with gender, education, MMSE, and total intracranial volume. AddNeuroMed, ADNI, and AIBL differed from the population-based cohorts in several demographic-clinical variables that had a significant effect on hippocampal volume. Variability in hippocampal volume in individuals with normal cognition is high. Differences that previously tended to be related to disease mechanisms could also be partly explained by demographic and clinical factors independent from the disease. Furthermore, cognitively normal individuals especially from ADNI and AIBL are not representative of the general population. These findings may have important implications for future research and clinical trials, translating imaging biomarkers to the general popu

Abstract: The hippocampal formation is a brain structure integrally involved in episodic memory, spatial navigation, cognition and stress responsiveness. Structural abnormalities in hippocampal volume and shape are found in several common neuropsychiatric disorders. To identify the genetic underpinnings of hippocampal structure here we perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 33,536 individuals and discover six independent loci significantly associated with hippocampal volume, four of them novel. Of the novel loci, three lie within genes (ASTN2, DPP4 and MAST4) and one is found 200 kb upstream of SHH. A hippocampal subfield analysis shows that a locus within the MSRB3 gene shows evidence of a localized effect along the dentate gyrus, subiculum, CA1 and fissure. Further, we show that genetic variants associated with decreased hippocampal volume are also associated with increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (rg=-0.155). Our findings suggest novel biological pathways through which human genetic variation influences hippocampal volume and risk for neuropsychiatric illness.

Abstract: Intracranial volume reflects the maximally attained brain size during development, and remains stable with loss of tissue in late life. It is highly heritable, but the underlying genes remain largely undetermined. In a genome-wide association study of 32,438 adults, we discovered five previously unknown loci for intracranial volume and confirmed two known signals. Four of the loci were also associated with adult human stature, but these remained associated with intracranial volume after adjusting for height. We found a high genetic correlation with child head circumference (ρgenetic = 0.748), which indicates a similar genetic background and allowed us to identify four additional loci through meta-analysis (Ncombined = 37,345). Variants for intracranial volume were also related to childhood and adult cognitive function, and Parkinson's disease, and were enriched near genes involved in growth pathways, including PI3K-AKT signaling. These findings identify the biological underpinnings of intracranial volume and their link to physiological and pathological traits.

Abstract: Reduction in hippocampal and amygdala volume measured via structural magnetic resonance imaging is an early marker of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Whether genetic risk factors for AD exert an effect on these subcortical structures independent of clinical status has not been fully investigated. We examine whether increased genetic risk for AD influences hippocampal and amygdala volumes in case-control and population cohorts at different ages, in 1674 older (aged >53 years; 17% AD, 39% mild cognitive impairment [MCI]) and 467 young (16–30 years) adults. An AD polygenic risk score combining common risk variants excluding apolipoprotein E (APOE), and a single nucleotide polymorphism in TREM2, were both associated with reduced hippocampal volume in healthy older adults and those with MCI. APOE ε4 was associated with hippocampal and amygdala volume in those with AD and MCI but was not associated in healthy older adults. No associations were found in young adults. Genetic risk for AD affects the hippocampus before the clinical symptoms of AD, reflecting a neurodegenerative effect before clinical manifestations in older adults.

31. White matter changes in familial Alzheimer's disease

Abstract: BackgroundFamilial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) resulting from gene mutations in PSEN1, PSEN2 and APP is associated with changes in the brain. ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate changes in grey matter (GM), white matter (WM) and the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in FAD. SubjectsTen mutation carriers (MCs) with three different mutations in PSEN1 and APP and 20 noncarriers (NCs) were included in the study. Three MCs were symptomatic and seven were presymptomatic (pre-MCs). MethodsWhole-brain GM volume as well as fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) using voxel-based morphometry and tract-based spatial statistics analyses, respectively, were compared between MCs and NCs. FA and MD maps were obtained from diffusion tensor imaging. ResultsA significant increase in MD was found in the left inferior longitudinal fasciculus, cingulum and bilateral superior longitudinal fasciculus in pre-MCs compared with NCs. After inclusion of the three symptomatic MCs in the analysis, the regions became wider. The mean MD of these regions showed significant negative correlation with the CSF level of A42, and positive correlations with P-tau(181p) and T-tau. No differences were observed in GM volume and FA between the groups. ConclusionsThe results of this study suggest that FAD gene mutations affect WM diffusivity before changes in GM volume can be detected. The WM changes observed were related to changes in the CSF, with similar patterns previously observed in sporadic Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract: The highly complex structure of the human brain is strongly shaped by genetic influences1. Subcortical brain regions form circuits with cortical areas to coordinate movement2, learning, memory3 and motivation4, and altered circuits can lead to abnormal behaviour and disease2. To investigate how common genetic variants affect the structure of these brain regions, here we conduct genome-wide association studies of the volumes of seven subcortical regions and the intracranial volume derived from magnetic resonance images of 30,717 individuals from 50 cohorts. We identify five novel genetic variants influencing the volumes of the putamen and caudate nucleus. We also find stronger evidence for three loci with previously established influences on hippocampal volume5 and intracranial volume6. These variants show specific volumetric effects on brain structures rather than global effects across structures. The strongest effects were found for the putamen, where a novel intergenic locus with replicable influence on volume (rs945270; P = 1.08 × 10−33; 0.52% variance explained) showed evidence of altering the expression of the KTN1 gene in both brain and blood tissue. Variants influencing putamen volume clustered near developmental genes that regulate apoptosis, axon guidance and vesicle transport. Identification of these genetic variants provides insight into the causes of variability in human brain development, and may help to determine mechanisms of neuropsychiatric dysfunction.

Abstract: Contains fulltext : 136026.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access), We propose a novel approach to predicting disease progression in Alzheimer's disease (AD) - multivariate ordinal regression - which inherently models the ordered nature of brain atrophy spanning normal aging (CTL) to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD. Ordinal regression provides probabilistic class predictions as well as a continuous index of disease progression - the ORCHID (Ordinal Regression Characteristic Index of Dementia) score. We applied ordinal regression to 1023 baseline structural MRI scans from two studies: the US-based Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) and the European based AddNeuroMed program. Here, the acquired AddNeuroMed dataset was used as a completely independent test set for the ordinal regression model trained on the ADNI cohort providing an optimal assessment of model generalizability. Distinguishing CTL-like (CTL and stable MCI) from AD-like (MCI converters and AD) resulted in balanced accuracies of 82% (cross-validation) for ADNI and 79% (independent test set) for AddNeuroMed. For prediction of conversion from MCI to AD, balanced accuracies of 70% (AUC of 0.75) and 75% (AUC of 0.81) were achieved. The ORCHID score was computed for all subjects. We showed that this measure significantly correlated with MMSE at 12 months (rho = -0.64, ADNI and rho = -0.59, AddNeuroMed). Additionally, the ORCHID score can help fractionate subjects with unstable diagnoses (e.g. reverters and healthy controls who later progressed to MCI), moderately late converters (12-24 months) and late converters (24-36 months). A comparison with results in the literature and direct comparison with a binary classifier suggests that the performance of this framework is highly competitive.

36. The influence of negative life events on hippocampal and amygdala volumes in old age : a life-course perspective

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Psychosocial stress has been related to changes in the nervous system, with both adaptive and maladaptive consequences. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship of negative events experienced throughout the entire lifespan and hippocampal and amygdala volumes in older adults. METHOD: In 466 non-demented old adults (age range 60-96 years, 58% female), hippocampal and amygdala volumes were segmented using Freesurfer. Negative life events and the age at which these events occurred were assessed by means of a structured questionnaire. Using generalized linear models, hippocampal and amygdala volumes were estimated with life events as independent variables. The statistical analyses were adjusted for age, gender, intracranial volume, lifestyle factors, cardiovascular risk factors, depressive symptoms, and cognitive functioning. RESULTS: Total number of negative life events and of late-life events, but not of early-life, early-adulthood, or middle-adulthood events, was related to larger amygdala volume. There were interactions of early-life events with age and gender. Participants who reported two or more early-life events had significantly smaller amygdala and hippocampal volumes with increasing age. Furthermore, smaller hippocampal volume was found in men who reported two or more early-life events, but not in women. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the effect of negative life events on the brain depends on the time when the events occurred, with the strongest effects observed during the critical time periods of early and late life.

Abstract: The non-destructive testing of in situ seals in underground coal mines is critical for determining seal integrity and to provide safe working conditions. Periodic testing can be used to determine the ability of the seal to withstand explosions. A project is described in which four types of test method will be investigated, ground penetrating radar, ultrasonic testing, tracer gas testing and radiofrequency methods. The technologies will be applied to different seal materials, and known anomalies will be introduced into seal materials to investigate whether the methods can resolve non-homogeneous materials, voids, fractures and different densities., The non-destructive testing of in situ seals in underground coal mines is critical for determining seal integrity and to provide safe working conditions.

Abstract: An update is presented of the preliminary assessment of proposed nondestructive testing methods for mine-seal evaluation using three commercially available sensing technologies. Testing with ground-penetrating radar equipment (250-2 200 MHz) on small-scale seal specimens indicated the potential for this technology to provide the necessary resolution for seal material assessment. Two tracer gases - perfluoromethylcyclohexane and sulphur hexafluoride - were tested on small-scale concrete or cementitious samples, with both gases exhibiting acceptable rates of permeation. Testing of an ultrasonic system (50 kHz) on small-scale specimens showed that the technology could be used to resolve features within the seal material. Initial testing of large- and full-scale specimens - thirteen 1.2-m test cubes combined and two free-standing, full-scale mine seals - is scheduled for autumn/winter 2013 at an underground limestone test facility, Georgetown, Kentucky, USA., An update is presented of the preliminary assessment of proposed nondestructive testing methods for mine-seal evaluation using three commercially available sensing technologies.

Testing of an ultrasonic system (50 kHz) on small-scale specimens showed that the technology could be used to resolve features within the seal material. Initial testing of large- and full-scale specimens - thirteen 1.2-m test cubes combined and two free-standing, full-scale mine seals - is scheduled for autumn/winter 2013 at an underground limestone test facility, Georgetown, Kentucky, USA.

Abstract: Stress fields in a disturbed discontinuum such as the Earth’s crust should be complex, and yet most mines make do with a handful of measurements not sufficient in coverage or number to capture the complexity of this fundamental input to mine design. Observations confirm that at a mine scale and smaller, the variability in stress gradients is sufficient to affect excavation performance. At a number of example mines, an effort was made to explain and match the measured variability by numerically simulating aspects of the geo-mechanical history. By accounting for the structural geometry, topography or a simple interpretation of the geological history, these simple numerical models help explain the variability between measurements and confirm measured heterogeneity of the stress field at a scale that is relevant to mine performance.

42. Three-dimensional time-lapse velocity tomography of an underground longwall panel.

Author: Luxbacher K., Karfakis M., Swanson P., Westman E., Luxbacher K., Karfakis M., Swanson P., and Westman E.
Abstract: Three-dimensional velocity tomograms were generated to image the stress redistribution around an underground coal longwall panel at a mine in the western USA in order to investigate the mechanisms leading to ground failure, in particular rock bursts. Mining-induced microseismic events provided passive sources for the three-dimensional velocity tomography and surface-mounted geophones were used to monitor microseismic activity for 18 days. Eighteen tomograms were generated and high-velocity regions correlated with high abutment stresses predicted by numerical modelling. The high-velocity regions were observed to redistribute as the longwall face retreated, indicating that velocity tomography may be an appropriate technology for monitoring stress redistribution in underground mines., Three-dimensional velocity tomograms were generated to image the stress redistribution around an underground coal longwall panel at a mine in the western USA in order to investigate the mechanisms leading to ground failure, in particular rock bursts.

Abstract: Underground mine seals have generally been constructed as flat walls, whereas large hydraulic surface dams are concave. A method involving finite-element analysis of three-dimensional solids under uniform loading was used to compare the strength of a flat and a curved wall. The results indicate that, while requiring additional time and material to construct, curved or horizontally arched seals are significantly stronger than flat seals. Under static loads of 20, 50, 100 and 200 psi modelled seals having a 2 ft curve were displaced 15% less than flat seals and those with a 5 ft curve were displaced 30% less than flat seals., Underground mine seals have generally been constructed as flat walls, whereas large hydraulic surface dams are concave.

46. A pH-induced modification of CII increases its arthritogenic properties

Author: Lundberg, K., Ottosson, L., Westman, E., Sunnerhagen, Maria, Hultenby, K., Erlandsson, Harris H., Lundberg, K., Ottosson, L., Westman, E., Sunnerhagen, Maria, Hultenby, K., and Erlandsson, Harris H.
Abstract: Immunoreactivity to collagen type II (CII) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis. Patients have been described to have an acidic pH in their inflamed synovial tissue. It is known that protein structures are modified by environmental pH, thus it is plausible that changes in synovial pH could affect the conformation of proteins like CII. Posttranslational modifications could alter the biophysical properties of cartilage proteins leading to autoimmunity. In this study we investigated if arthritogenicity of CII was affected by changes in pH, and if so, this could be correlated to altered protein conformation. Immunisation with CII at neutral pH induced a milder disease than did CII at acidic pH. All animals elicited a humoral response to CII, although with a significantly higher IgG1/IgG2b-ratio in the pH 7.4 group. Analysis by circular dichroism and electron microscopy indicated less fibrillation of CII at low pH as compared to neutral pH. Our results suggest that CII is more immunogenic and arthritogenic in an acidic environment than in a neutral environment. We can correlate these findings to pH-induced conformational changes of CII. Hence, self-tolerance to CII might be affected by changes in pH leading to altered and increased arthritogenicity. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

47. beta-lactamase-producing nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae fails to protect Streptococcus pneumoniae from amoxicillin during experimental acute otitis media

Author: Westman, E, Lundin, S, Hermansson, Ann, Melhus, Åsa, Westman, E, Lundin, S, Hermansson, Ann, and Melhus, Åsa
Abstract: Acute otitis media (AOM) is the most common reason for outpatient antimicrobial therapy. Mixed infections pose a potential problem, since the first-line drug used for the treatment of AOM, amoxicillin, can be neutralized by ß-lactamase-producing pathogens of the upper respiratory tract. To study the effects of a 5-day course of amoxicillin on a mixed middle ear infection, rats were challenged with Streptococcus pneumoniae alone or in combination with ß-lactamase-producing nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae. Amoxicillin was introduced at the clinical peak of the infection. Local and systemic changes were monitored by otomicroscopy, bacterial culture, and analysis of histological changes and the expression of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-ß) gene. ß-Lactamase-producing H. influenzae did not demonstrate an ability to protect S. pneumoniae. Amoxicillin eradicated the pneumococci in all treated animals but increased to some degree the ability of H. influenzae to persist at the site of infection. Thus, only an insignificant acceleration of the resolution of the AOM caused by a mixture of pathogens was observed during treatment. Moderate to major morphological changes could not be avoided by treatment of the mixed infections, but a slight downregulation of TGF-ß expression was observed. In contrast to infections caused by a single pathogen, the mixed infections induced white plaques in the tympanic membrane at a remarkably high frequency independent of treatment. These experimental findings constitute support for further studies of antimicrobial drugs and AOM caused by bacteria with and without mechanisms of antibiotic resistance.

Abstract: A new method was developed for determining quantitatively the accuracy and precision of the interpolated surfaces which are the foundation of a reserve estimate. An economic model was then developed to separate resources from economic reserves for Central Appalachian coal mining. The model relates profitability to coal reserves in southwest Virginia and was used in combination with a geographic information system to plot the distribution of profitability within individual seams., A new method was developed for determining quantitatively the accuracy and precision of the interpolated surfaces which are the foundation of a reserve estimate.

49. Accuracy analysis of GIS-based coal resource estimation.

Author: Westman E., Haycocks C., Karmis M., Westman E., Haycocks C., and Karmis M.
Abstract: A quantitative technique is presented for determining the accuracy of a coal resource estimate made using a geographic information system, by comparing verified thicknesses from multiple, localised points with the interpolated surface used in the resource estimate. For a Central Appalachian case study, the accuracy of a resource estimate was found to be 98%, 112% and 83% for three different seams and 92% overall. While no technique will always provide a completely reliable assessment of validity, this method gives a reasonal analysis of accuracy., A quantitative technique is presented for determining the accuracy of a coal resource estimate made using a geographic information system, by comparing verified thicknesses from multiple, localised points with the interpolated surface used in the resource estimate.

50. A review of atmospheric monitoring systems in underground coal mines: implications for explosion prevention.

Author: Griffin K., Jong E., Luxbacher K., Westman E., Griffin K., Jong E., Luxbacher K., and Westman E.
Abstract: Sensors are currently available to measure CH4, CO, CO2, O2, NO, NO2, H2S, H2, NH3, O3, Cl2, velocity, pressure and various psychrometric properties. Psychrometric properties are measured and detected using methods such as gas chromatography, infrared, pellistor, thermal conductivity, thermal mass flow, ultrasonic velocity, vortex shedding, galvanic and electrochemical. Sophisticated underground gas monitoring can be broken down into five levels including personal gas detection, fixed gas detection, tube bundle systems, continuous fixed real-time monitoring and bag sampling with an onsite gas chromatograph. A major advantage of the tube bundle system is that it can be used in post-accident atmospheric monitoring because the underground tube bundle infrastructure is unpowered, but the tube bundle infrastructure is still vulnerable to damage during a major accident. Continuous fixed real time monitoring utilises sensors connected to data network(s) that relay real time gas measurements to the surface and can show areas experiencing instantaneous changes in gas levels and air velocity. Specific areas can be designated that should be de-energised to eliminate ignition sources when a certain gas concentration is met. Seismic monitoring systems can be used to identify areas of ground control hazards. Increased seismic activity may lead to increased gas emissions as microfracturing creates higher permeability in the seam and strata. Seismic activity may also indicate changes in ground control which can cause damage to ventilation controls such as stoppings and seals. The integration of microseismic monitoring with real time monitoring of gases and other ventilation parameters could potentially correlate seismic activity and methane emissions with mining activity. Atmospheric monitoring system laws and regulations in the USA, Australia and China are reviewed. Most countries with substantial underground coal mining already practice handheld detection of explosive gases, alon, Sensors are currently available to measure CH4, CO, CO2, O2, NO, NO2, H2S, H2, NH3, O3, Cl2, velocity, pressure and various psychrometric properties.
