Patients with chronic lung disease (CLD) have an increased risk for severe coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) and poor outcomes. Here, we analyze the transcriptomes of 611,398 single cells isolated from healthy and CLD lungs to identify molecular characteristics of lung cells that may account for worse COVID-19 outcomes in patients with chronic lung diseases. We observe a similar cellular distribution and relative expression of SARS-CoV-2 entry factors in control and CLD lungs. CLD AT2 cells express higher levels of genes linked directly to the efficiency of viral replication and the innate immune response. Additionally, we identify basal differences in inflammatory gene expression programs that highlight how CLD alters the inflammatory microenvironment encountered upon viral exposure to the peripheral lung. Our study indicates that CLD is accompanied by changes in cell-type-specific gene expression programs that prime the lung epithelium for and influence the innate and adaptive immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Patients with chronic lung disease (CLD) have an increased risk for severe coronavirus disease-19 and poor outcomes. Here the authors compare the transcriptomes of single cells isolated from healthy and CLD lungs to identify molecular characteristics of lung cells that may account for worse COVID-19 outcomes in these patients.

- Abstract
Carbon cycling is a highly complex yet critical process, especially in silvopastures, which have multiple pools with the ability to store large amounts of C. However, it is largely unknown how site‐specific variables, including edaphic factors, vegetation type, topography, and management, affect soil CO2 flux in silvopastures. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate CO2 fluxes in a silvopastoral system as affected by soil moisture (udic and aquic), forage species (C4; native grass mix and orchardgrass [C3; Dactylis glomerata L.]), fertilization (poultry litter and a control), and grazing pressure (grazed and ungrazed). Temperature and volumetric water content (VWC) were measured simultaneous with flux measurements during summer grazing in 2018 and 2019. Averaged across years, fluxes were at least 20% greater (P ≤.05) in the native mix fertilized with poultry litter than in the unfertilized native mix and fertilized or unfertilized orchardgrass, likely owing to increased microbial diversity activity in the rhizosphere of poultry litter‐amended native grass species. Across years, CO2 flux was 7% greater (P ≤.05) in the fertilized ungrazed areas and 7% lower (P ≤.05) in the unfertilized ungrazed areas, respectively, compared with both fertilized grazed and unfertilized grazed areas. Carbon dioxide flux was correlated (P ≤.05) with sampling date, soil temperature, and VWC. Study results improve the understanding of C dynamics in complex silvopasture systems and may assist producers in their selection of forage species and nutrient sources when designing silvopastoral systems for enhanced regional sustainability.Core Ideas: Studies of soil CO2 flux in silvopastoral systems are limited.Fluxes were greatest in a native grass mix fertilized with poultry litter.Carbon dioxide flux was correlated to sampling date, soil temperature, and soil water content.

Background: Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is a genetic condition that causes early onset pulmonary emphysema and airways obstruction. The complete mechanisms via which AATD causes lung disease are not fully understood. To improve our understanding of the pathogenesis of AATD, we investigated gene expression profiles of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in AATD individuals.Methods: We performed RNA-Seq on RNA extracted from matched BAL and PBMC samples isolated from 89 subjects enrolled in the Genomic Research in Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency and Sarcoidosis (GRADS) study. Subjects were stratified by genotype and augmentation therapy. Supervised and unsupervised differential gene expression analyses were performed using Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify gene profiles associated with subjects' clinical variables. The genes in the most significant WGCNA module were used to cluster AATD individuals. Gene validation was performed by NanoString nCounter Gene Expression Assay.Result: We observed modest effects of AATD genotype and augmentation therapy on gene expression. When WGCNA was applied to BAL transcriptome, one gene module, ME31 (2312 genes), correlated with the highest number of clinical variables and was functionally enriched with numerous immune T-lymphocyte related pathways. This gene module identified two distinct clusters of AATD individuals with different disease severity and distinct PBMC gene expression patterns.Conclusions: We successfully identified novel clusters of AATD individuals where severity correlated with increased immune response independent of individuals' genotype and augmentation therapy. These findings may suggest the presence of previously unrecognised disease endotypes in AATD that associate with T-lymphocyte immunity and disease severity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Research conducted over multiple decades explores student attrition from higher education institutions. The majority of this research relates to traditional, on-campus student populations. However, colleges and universities are serving more nontraditional students than before by increasing distance education course offerings. Although enrollments are increasing, few studies examine retention of nontraditional learners in a distance education setting. Even fewer suggest institutional action based on student satisfaction of nontraditional, distance learners. This study examined student satisfaction and education-related priorities of Utah State University (USU) undergraduate students at regional campus locations throughout the state of Utah. Perceived programming needs were determined based on the discrepancy between student-reported satisfaction and importance rankings of education-related items. The highest discrepancies between priorities and satisfaction of undergraduate students at USU regional campus locations were: use of student activity fees, adequate availability of financial aid, tuition being a worthwhile investment, registering for classes with few conflicts, scheduling of courses to complete program, timeliness of financial aid announcements, academic advisor���s knowledge of major requirements, instruction within major, variety of course offerings, and classes being scheduled at convenient times.

125. New Insights Into the Role of Atmospheric Transport and Mixing on Column and Surface Concentrations of NO2at a Coastal Urban Site
- Author

Adams, Taylor J., Geddes, Jeffrey A., and Lind, Elena S.
- Abstract
We use a multi‐year record of Pandora‐derived NO2total column abundance in Boston to examine the influence of atmospheric transport on column NO2and its surface concentrations during the warm season in a coastal urban environment. We derive tropospheric NO2estimates from the total column with a measurement‐model fusion approach using near‐real‐time estimates of stratospheric NO2from NASA's Goddard Earth Observing System Composition Forecast model system and find the average influence of stratospheric NO2at this urban site can be 30%–70% depending on season and time of day. Sea breeze days tend to exhibit rapid temporal variability in the column that which can go in the opposite direction of changes in surface NO2concentrations. By comparing tropospheric NO2with surface concentrations, we constrain the role of boundary layer entrainment processes in the evolution of surface NO2concentrations, while highlighting the value of column measurements in identifying sea breeze frontal dynamics. We estimate an apparent equal mixing layer height of NO2and infer that surface NOxemissions remain concentrated near the surface regardless of atmospheric stability regime. When comparing the Pandora‐ to TROPOMI‐derived column NO2measurements, we find that sea breeze days present a unique challenge likely due to higher spatial heterogeneity in NO2and the meteorology involved that is not well represented in retrieval inputs. Our observations provide new insights into column and surface variability of NO2which will be relevant to interpreting geostationary observations, especially in coastal urban locations. Relating satellite‐derived observations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) to ground‐level air quality has long been an area of research with important applications to human and environmental welfare. Here, we use new remote sensing observations from ground‐ and satellite‐based instruments, along with ground‐level air quality monitoring and meteorological observations, to gain new insight into the relationship of NO2total column abundance and surface concentrations in a costal urban environment. We show how the total columns (the NO2between the surface and top of the atmosphere) derived from remote sensing are sensitive to different processes than surface concentrations (the amount of NO2at a point near the surface), which complicate the interpretation of surface air quality from satellite observations. We also find evidence that the mixing of surface emissions in our urban environment is slow relative to the NOxlifetime even under conditions when the boundary layer is expected to be well‐mixed. We find that sea breeze systems common to coastal environments present particularly challenging circumstances, due to higher spatial and temporal variability in pollutant concentrations. Our results should provide some insights into the interpretation of new geostationary air quality observations.

- Abstract
Coastal urban environments face unique challenges associated with air quality‐meteorology interactions. In this study, high resolution chemical transport modeling over the Greater Boston area was performed to improve our understanding of sea breezes impacts on the spatiotemporal variability of primary and secondary pollutants. We perform WRF‐Chem simulations at 3 km resolution over June 22 to 10 July 2019 (a period that included 10 sea breeze occurrences), and use Pandora tropospheric NO2column, surface air quality monitoring, and vertical meteorological aircraft profiles for evaluation. The model generally reproduces observed spatiotemporal variability of air pollution during sea breezes well. Tropospheric columns of NO2predicted by the model and observed by the Pandora instrument show that sea breezes are associated with rapid increases and steep gradients in tropospheric NO2and confirm accumulation of local primary emissions. Spatial heterogeneity in tropospheric NO2is strongly governed by inland penetration lengths of the sea breeze front. Process diagnostics show that three sea‐breeze days where O3observations recorded hourly concentrations >70 ppb have both efficient net chemical O3production in the boundary layer (>10 ppb/hr) and rapid O3convergence in the near‐surface convergence zone (>20 ppb/hr). During sea breezes, interactions between photochemistry, the convergence zone inland penetration, and urban NOxtitration effects, contribute to strong heterogeneity and high O3inland that is not captured by the current monitoring network. We discuss monitoring needs and model applications for the sea breeze scenarios, with broad implications for air quality monitoring in coastal urban environments. The sea breeze is a local meteorological system that brings air from the sea over the land during the day. In areas that usually experience offshore winds, this means the system can recirculate early morning pollutant emissions back onshore later in the day. Understanding the behavior of air pollutants in coastal urban environments is essential for air quality management, but land‐sea breeze circulations are characterized by fine scale features and rapid changes in pollution levels that pose challenges for traditional monitoring and satellite retrievals. In the Greater Boston area, we use highly resolved information from a regional chemical transport model combined with observational assets to examine pollutant behavior and model performance. We find new evidence of underestimated regional ozone pollution and nitrogen dioxide column spatial variability associated with sea breezes. This variability is governed by how far the sea breeze penetrates inland, but is also affected by interactions between chemistry and atmospheric dynamic that are not well captured by current monitoring and coarse resolution models. Our results provide valuable insights for future ground‐based and satellite remote sensing monitoring, highlighting that customized strategies for monitoring coastal urban air quality are required from high‐resolution models constrained by carefully allocated observations. High resolution WRF‐Chem modeling reproduces observed spatiotemporal variability of NO2and O3during sea breezes in the Greater Boston areaModel results suggest high O3pollution and NO2column spatial variability associated with sea breezes is not captured by current monitoringMonitoring coastal urban air quality requires customized strategies with high‐resolution modeling and well‐allocated observations High resolution WRF‐Chem modeling reproduces observed spatiotemporal variability of NO2and O3during sea breezes in the Greater Boston area Model results suggest high O3pollution and NO2column spatial variability associated with sea breezes is not captured by current monitoring Monitoring coastal urban air quality requires customized strategies with high‐resolution modeling and well‐allocated observations

A demographic and cultural profile of African-American youth is presented. Culturally-based differences in decision-making are reviewed. Attitudes and cultural values related to identity and self-image, gender role socialization, contraception, marriage and parenthood, homosexuality, and HIV/AIDS are described. Recommendations and strategies to make sexuality education and pregnancy prevention programs relevant to African-American youth are offered.By the year 2030, 18% of all American youths will be of African-American descent. Statistics indicate that young black women are more likely to be sexually active and twice as likely as while women to become pregnant. Young black males tend to have sex earlier, with more partners, and are less likely to contracept at first intercourse. Younger teens are at particular risk; Blacks constitute 52% of youths under age 14 with AIDS. Available statistics disaggregated by ethnic group are, however, suspect due to the confounding relationship between socioeconomic status and ethnicity; early sexual intercourse, early parenthood, and infection with sexually transmitted diseases are more common among those of lower socioeconomic status. Black youths are, overall, disproportionately poor with few life options to encourage them to protect against pregnancy. Early childbearing therefore has few perceived costs to counterbalance perceived benefits. Working under these assumptions, program planners must reassess the extent to which their programs are appropriate and effective. Broadly speaking, programs should not simply promote abstinence, but should also offer risk reduction strategies to youths who will be sexually active. This paper reviews culturally based differences in decision making, then describes attitudes and cultural values related to identify and self-image, gender role socialization, contraception, marriage and parenthood, homosexuality, and HIV/AIDS. Recommendations and strategies are also provided on how to make sexuality education and pregnancy prevention programs relevant to black youths.

Ideas are raised for how qualitative research can find its place in this changing system, including creating joint inter-university programs, increasing the accessibility of qualitative data and methods, and using qualitative methods to best prepare students for professional employment. Other themes presented in the workgroups focused on the use of qualitative methods in teaching and learning processes and in multicultural and intercultural contexts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This is a review of the United States experience with issues of child health and services as they relate to changes in economic trends. No existing data systems are entirely adequate for reporting on the current health status of children. An important consideration for the monitoring of children's health in the United States is the status of subgroups such as those who are disadvantaged for reasons of poverty, discrimination or geographic isolation. Ample evidence confirms that children living in poverty suffer adverse health consequences and that the proportion of children living in poverty in the United States has increased steadily since 1975 and dramatically since 1981. Most measures of health status and health risks for children show steady improvements throughout the 1970s. The exercise of public responsibility for financing and providing essential services and supports held constant or improved during this period, especially during the recession of 1974–75. The health status and risks for children since 1981 appear to be adversely affected which must be attributed to a combination of circumstances that include serious recession, increased poverty rates for households with children and diminished health benefits and social support services. These findings suggest that when either local or widespread economic reversals are anticipated, health services and social supports for children need to be expanded rather than contracted.

Patients with sarcoidosis who develop severe clinical phenotypes of pulmonary fibrosis or multiorgan disease experience debilitating symptoms, with fatigue being a common chief complaint. Studies that have investigated this patient-related outcome measure (PROM) have used the Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS), a self-reported questionnaire that reflects mental and physical domains. Despite extensive work, its cause is unknown and treatment options remain limited. Previously, we showed that the plasma of patients with sarcoidosis with extrapulmonary disease endorsing fatigue was enriched for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), a ligand for the innate immune receptor toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9). Through our cross-disciplinary platform, we investigated a relationship between sarcoidosis-induced fatigue and circulating mtDNA. Is there a psychobiologic mechanism that connects sarcoidosis-induced fatigue and mtDNA-mediated TLR9 activation? Using a local cohort of patients at Yale (discovery cohort) and the National Institutes of Health-sponsored Genomic Research in Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency and Sarcoidosis study (validation cohort), we scored the FAS and quantified in the plasma, mtDNA concentrations, TLR9 activation, and cytokine levels. Although FAS scores were independent of corticosteroid use and Scadding stage, we observed a robust association between FAS scores, which included mental and physical domains, and multiorgan sarcoidosis. Subsequently, we identified a significant correlation between plasma mtDNA concentrations and all domains of fatigue. Additionally, we found that TLR9 activation is associated with all aspects of the FAS and partially mediates this PROM through mtDNA. Last, we found that TLR9-associated soluble mediators in the plasma are independent of all facets of fatigue. Through our cross-disciplinary translational platform, we identified a previously unrecognized psychobiologic connection between sarcoidosis-induced fatigue and circulating mtDNA concentrations. Mechanistic work that investigates the contribution of mtDNA-mediated innate immune activation in this PROM and clinical studies with prospective cohorts has the potential to catalyze novel therapeutic strategies for this patient population and those with similar conditions.

A previously published report by these authors on the impact in the United States of recession on children's health emphasized four points: 1) available monitoring systems are not adequate for reporting on the health of children in a timely fashion; 2) the monitoring of maternal and child health must emphasize data on population subgroups, i.e., minorities, the poor and those hardest hit by recession; 3) the health of poor children is adversely affected and their numbers dramatically increased during the recession of 1981–82; and 4) comparisons between the recession of 1974–75 and that of 1981–82 suggest that expansion of health services and social support systems during the recession of 1974–75 had a cushioning effect that protected the health of children, while the curtailment of many of these programs during the 1981–82 recession is associated with adverse health trends, especially among the most vulnerable population subgroups. Data on these issues are appreciably better now than they were nine months ago, thus further validating the points made above. As with the previous report, officially released current data are abundant for economic indicators (even for early 1984), but are sparse for health status indicators. The previous report also observed that the health status of children is influenced by interdependent and interlocking factors that include economic well-being and access to health services and social supports. A new analysis attempts to unlock those relationships and measure the impact of lost welfare benefits, implemented as a result of the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1981 (OBRA), and the separate impact of the serious recession of 1981–82. That analysis shows the poverty rate for children increased by 7.6 percentage points between 1981 and 1982. Approximately 60 percent of the increase is attributable to the recession and 40 percent to social policy changes effected after 1981.

Mast-cell expressed membrane protein-1 (MCEMP1) is higher in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) with an increased risk of death. Here we aimed to establish the mechanistic role of MCEMP1 in pulmonary fibrosis. We identified increased MCEMP1 expression in classical monocytes and alveolar macrophages in IPF compared with controls. MCEMP1 is upregulated by transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) at the mRNA and protein levels in monocytic leukemia THP-1 cells. TGFβ-mediated MCEMP1 upregulation results from the cooperation of SMAD3 and SP1 via concomitant binding to SMAD3/SP1 cis-regulatory elements within the MCEMP1 promoter. We also found that MCEMP1 regulates TGFb-mediated monocyte chemotaxis, adhesion, and migration. Our results suggest that MCEMP1 may regulate the migration and transition of monocytes to monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages during pulmonary fibrosis development and progression.

This article briefly discusses some of the most common myths about adolescent pregnancy examines why it is a major social problem and presents some ideas about what can be done to prevent adolescent pregnancy. 4 myths prevalent today are corrected. These myths include: 1) adolescent pregnancy and parenthood is a rapidly spreading epidemic; 2) adolescent pregnancy and parenthood is primarily a minority problem and urban problem or a problem of poor youth; 3) the typical teenager giving birth is single and under age 18; and 4) all adolescent boys are irresponsible sexual partners and refuse to take any responsibility for any children they may father. Adolescent pregnancy is a problem because of the resulting truncated education eroded earnings single parenthood and social costs of early parenthood. In order to prevent early parenthood and to help teen parents teens need increased capacity to prevent pregnancy compelling reasons to prevent pregnancy and services and support. The authors also list the addresses and phone numbers of national organizations books and reports newsletters and journals curricula and program guides literature for teens and media campaigns dedicated to adolescent pregnancy.
