Abstract

Although Irish winter wheat yields are among the highest globally, increases in the profitability of this crop are required to maintain its economic viability. However, in order to determine if efforts to further increase Irish wheat yields are likely to be successful, an accurate estimation of the yield potential is required for different regions within Ireland. A winter wheat yield potential model (WWYPM) was developed, which estimates the maximum water-limited yield achievable, within the confines of current genetic resources and technologies, using parameters for winter wheat growth and development observed recently in Ireland and a minor amount of daily meteorological input (maximum and minimum daily temperature, total daily rainfall and total daily incident radiation). The WWYPM is composed of three processes: (i) an estimation of potential green area index, (ii) an estimation of light interception and biomass accumulation and (iii) an estimation of biomass partitioning to grain yield. Model validation indicated that WWYPM estimations of water-limited yield potential (YPw) were significantly related to maximum yields recorded in variety evaluation trials as well as regional average and maximum farm yields, reflecting the model’s sensitivity to alterations in the climatic environment with spatial and seasonal variations. Simulations of YPw for long-term average weather data at 12 sites located at spatially contrasting regions of Ireland indicated that the typical YPw varied between 15.6 and 17.9 t/ha, with a mean of 16.7 t/ha at 15% moisture content. These results indicate that the majority of sites in Ireland have the potential to grow high-yielding crops of winter wheat when the effects of very high rainfall and other stresses such as disease incidence and nutrient deficits are not considered.

4. The Association Between Caregiver Coping and Youth Clinic Attendance and Health-related Quality of Life in Pediatric Sickle Cell Disease

Abstract

Caregivers of youth with sickle cell disease (SCD) influence the youth disease management and psychosocial outcomes. Effective caregiver coping is important for improving disease management and outcomes since caregivers often report high disease-related parenting stress. This study characterizes caregiver coping and examines its relation to youth clinic nonattendance and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Participants were 63 youth with SCD and their caregivers. Caregivers completed the Responses to Stress Questionnaire–SCD module to assess primary control engagement (PCE; attempts to change stressors or reactions to stress), secondary control engagement (SCE; strategies to adapt to stress), and disengagement (avoidance) coping. Youth with SCD completed the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory–SCD module. Medical records were reviewed for the hematology appointment nonattendance rates. Coping factors were significantly different (F[1.837, 113.924]=86.071, P<0.001); caregivers reported more PCE (M=2.75, SD=0.66) and SCE (M=2.78, SD=0.66) than disengagement (M=1.75, SD=0.54) coping. Responses to short-answer questions corroborated this pattern. Greater caregiver PCE coping was associated with lower youth nonattendance (β=−0.28, P=0.050), and greater caregiver SCE coping was related to higher youth HRQOL (β=0.28, P=0.045). Caregiver coping is related to improved clinic attendance and HRQOL in pediatric SCD. Providers should assess caregiver coping styles and consider encouraging engagement coping.

16. Romiplostim as a Therapeutic Intervention for Tacrolimus-induced Immune Thrombocytopenia in a Pediatric Cardiac Transplant Patient

Author

Gipson, Daniel R., Larkin, Trisha, Seifert, Robert, and Black, L. Vandy

Abstract

Tacrolimus-induced immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare entity that can occur years after initiation of tacrolimus therapy following solid organ transplantation, and platelet recovery can be substantially delayed following discontinuation of tacrolimus. Romiplostim, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist approved by the FDA in 2018 for the treatment of chronic ITP in children, may be a useful therapy to hasten platelet recovery in the acute ITP setting in place of immunomodulating agents. We present a case of tacrolimus-induced ITP successfully treated with romiplostim in a child following cardiac transplantation.
