Classification of health assessment components reported at Texas domestic medical screening examination of Cuban entrants, 2010–2015.

Demographic characteristics and clinical screening results of individuals from Cuba resettling in Texas from 2010 to 2015 by route of entry (N, %).

Crude and adjusted PR of domestic medical screening status, Cubans in Texas who were paroled into the US at the border versus those who obtained refugee/Cuban entrant status in Cuba (reference), 2010–2015.

Assays were done for 10 days. Data fit to a binomial model describing the probability of a mosquito surviving each day. Proc Genmod was used in SAS where Day and Treatment (feeding status) were the main effects. The repeated statement was used to adjust for correlations within replicates. Ward Chi Square statistics were generated. Pairwise comparisons were conservatively adjusted using a Bonferoni correction. Data past day 5 were not included because unfed caterpillars no longer exist. Treatments were significantly different (P

Current assay verifies the reproductive performance of females of Nile tilapia in different age classes and reproductive environments. Four hundred and fifty-one females were evaluated in two different Brazilian environments, namely in Maringá, Paraná State, Brazil (Site 1 - hapas of 10 m3 and Site 2 - hapas of 1 m3) and in one environment in Alfenas, Minas Gerais State, Brazil (Site 3 - hapas of 14 and 28 m3). The females were divided into three age classes, corresponding to animals under one year (age 1); between one to two years (age 2); and over three years old (age 3). Spawning was verified once a week, from October 2012 to March 2013, corresponding to a 23-week assessment. The statistical analyses were performed with Proc Genmod from the statistical program SAS. Site 2 had the lowest results when compared to the other sites for multiple spawning, spawning frequency and volume of eggs/female for animals of age 2. Statistical differences were not detected between ages 1 and 2 for the same assessment site, although females at age 3 in Site 3 provided higher results than those at age 2. Results show that, precluding the use of animals in individual hapas (1 m³) and maintaining older females in the stock, may improve reproduction results.
