    Notes: Summary We have previously shown that long-term administration of aminoguanidine, an inhibitor of advanced glycosylation product formation, reduces the extent of experimental diabetic retinopathy in the rat by 85 %. In order to determine whether the residual retinopathy that developed despite aminoguanidine was attributable to advanced glycation endproduct formation, a time-course study was performed in three different groups of male Wistar rats: non-diabetic controls (NC), streptozotocin-diabetic controls (DC) and streptozotocin-diabetic rats treated with aminoguanidine HCL, 50 mg/100 ml drinking water (D-AG). Eyes were obtained at 24, 32, 44 and 56 weeks of diabetes/treatment duration and morphologic evaluation was done on retinal digest preparations. At 56 weeks, retinal basement membrane thickness was additionally measured. After 24 weeks of diabetes, the number of acellular capillaries was significantly elevated in DC (44.6 ± 5.7/mm2 of retinal area, NC 19.6 ± 4.9; p 〈 0.001) and increased continuously over time (DC 56 weeks 87.4 ± 15.1; p 〈 0.001 vs DC 24 weeks). In contrast, acellular capillaries in D-AG increased over the first 24 weeks and then remained constant for the rest of the study (D-AG 24 weeks 35.7 ± 5.18; p 〈 0.01 vs NC 24 weeks and NS vs DC 24 weeks; D-AG 56 weeks 42.0 ± 6.20; p NS vs D-AG 24 weeks). Diabetes-associated pericyte loss (DC 24 weeks 2310 ± 170/mm2 of capillary area; NC 24 weeks 3120 ± 190; p 〈 0.001; DC 56 weeks 1570 ± 230; NC 56 weeks 2960 ± 50; p 〈 0.001) was significantly prevented by aminoguanidine after diabetic-like changes over the initial 24 weeks (D-AG 24 weeks 2450 ± 75; p NS vs DC 24 weeks; D-AG 56 weeks 2350 ± 90; p 〈 0.001 vs DC 56 weeks). At 56 weeks, aminoguanidine treatment was associated with a 67.4 % reduction in retinal basement membrane thickening. This time-course study demonstrates that aminoguanidine prevents the progression of experimental diabetic retinopathy, and suggests that non AG-inhibitable mechanisms are involved in the initial phase of diabetic retinopathy.

    Learning and Updating of Uncertainty in Dirichlet Models (1997)

    Topics: Computer Science
    Notes: Abstract In this paper we analyze the problem of learning and updating of uncertainty in Dirichlet models, where updating refers to determining the conditional distribution of a single variable when some evidence is known. We first obtain the most general family of prior-posterior distributions which is conjugate to a Dirichlet likelihood and we identify those hyperparameters that are influenced by data values. Next, we describe some methods to assess the prior hyperparameters and we give a numerical method to estimate the Dirichlet parameters in a Bayesian context, based on the posterior mode. We also give formulas for updating uncertainty by determining the conditional probabilities of single variables when the values of other variables are known. A time series approach is presented for dealing with the cases in which samples are not identically distributed, that is, the Dirichlet parameters change from sample to sample. This typically occurs when the population is observed at different times. Finally, two examples are given that illustrate the learning and updating processes and the time series approach.

    Effect of dietary protein level on the reproductive performance of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.) (1998)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: The effects of five dietary protein levels (25%, 30%, 35%, 40% and 45%) on the individual spawning frequency and the egg production of 135 tagged female Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), were studied from 8 May to 19 November 1996 in outdoor concrete tanks. Virtually identical spawning patterns were found in all treatments, but there was a great deal of variation in the frequency of spawning and egg production. Overall, individual spawning frequency varied from one to 14 and individual egg production from 31 to 2828 eggs per spawning. The average number of spawnings and average number of eggs per spawning for fish receiving dietary protein levels of 25%, 30%, 35%, 40% and 45% were 8.0 ±1.6, 8.4 ± 2.2, 8.5 ± 2.7, 8.4 ± 2.5 and 9.4 ± 2.1 spawnings, and 1167 ± 305, 1082 ± 410, 1288 ± 324, 1145 ± 389 and 1328 ± 311 eggs per spawning, respectively. Fish receiving 45% dietary protein spawned more frequently than fish receiving 25% dietary protein. The total number of eggs produced per female was significantly higher for females fed 45% protein feed than females receiving 25% and 30% protein feeds. No definite trend was found in the number of eggs produced per spawning and the number of eggs produced per gram in females fed at different protein levels. Based on weekly checking, the time interval between spawnings varied from 7 to 77 days, and mean spawning intervals ranged from 15.8 to 17.1 days. Sixty per cent of females spawned after an interval 14 days, 15% after 21 days, 13.6% after 7 days, 7.2% after 28 days, 1.8% after 35 days and 1.0% after 42 days, and the time interval was 49-77 days for the rest of the females (1.5%). In all treatments, maximum spawning activity was recorded from May to August, and thereafter, it gradually decreased and no spawning females were found in November.
