central location, good restaurant when ballrooms in use create too much noise for the guests on the 1st floor.
all rooms are for smokers, therefore if you are not a smoker, you'll feel the heavy air. it did not seem very clean either.
The location of the hotel right in the city centre. Enjoyable breakfast. Very high cost for internet ( 2.5 euros/hour). Most of the hotels offer internet wireless for free. Praking is just for max 10 cars right in front of the hotel. It si not actually a parking place, cars are stopped near the sidewalk. Furniture and bathroom equipments should have been changed years ago.
A good hotel in the best place, close to old town. .
The stay was fine. The rooms are a little run down and in need of some repair. Otherwise everything was fine. Staff were very helpful and with a nice manner. Some of the furniture was torn and the chairs were very dusty. There were also holes in the wall.
Servicen i frukostmatsalen
Närheten till sevärdheter mm. Trevlig personal, utmärkta rum. Saknade tillgång till dator med internetuppkoppling.
Framför allt hotellets läge och den känsla av lyx man fick. Frukosten var utmärkt och vackert upplagd. Poolen var trivsam.
Närheten till allt.
Perfect personal samt en fantastic frukostbord fina rum och ren.
A beautiful traditional hotel, very centrally located. Courteous, helpful staff. Excellent restaurant. Price out of season was very reasonable for a quality hotel in such a central location. Comfortable, warm (it was minus 20 degrees C outside!), free internet access. This is Romania - you have to manage your expectations a little bit, but I have no complaints about my stay.
Staff was helpful and very polite, location is excellent, hotel is quiet and stylish. The room was much smaller than expected, in particular for a 5* hotel. Bathroom was really small, nothing to do with the pictures on the web site. Quite dissappointing.
The cooperation and the hospitality of the staff. The staff are the best thing about this hotel.Room design was also very nice. the breakfast room was very small.The collection of items was not wide.
comfortable bed breakfast was so simple and bad taste
The hotel should be ranked as 3 or 4 stars and not as 5 stars
Good location and very clean and peaceful hotel. Taste of luxury from old days. Very good service in Romanian standards!!! Small but not fatal issues like bad smell from waste pipes (or similar), leaking shower cubicle, cold coffee in breakfast.
Location ; comfortable ample junior suite; good restaurant
great location too old!
The early 20th building has been beautifully restored, while the interiors have been tastefully designed in a high end contemporary style. All the rooms are actually suites, with separate living/dining area, foyer, bedroom and bathroom. All the spaces are ample, very well appointed and extremely clean. A sumptuous breakfast in the rooftop restaurant Ici et La (with great views) is included in the price. The French food served at the restaurant at night is extraordinary and very well priced: do not miss it! The hotel is very well located, close to the Old Town, the beautiful Cismigiu Park, the National Art Museum, and major avenues. Although a few of the buildings on the Regina Elizabeta Boulevard seem to be abandoned, they are all outstanding examples of 19th and early 20th century European architecture. Staff was very helpful. We loved everything!
Ok. Bra läge men tvål och shampoo fylldes inte på vid städning.
Personalen var valdigt trevlig. Bra lage, eftersom centralt och narhet till det mesta Varfor anger booking.com att det ar et fyr stjrnigt hotel nar det egentligen endast ar tre ***
högt ljud från gatan
Närhet till olika aktiviteter, bra bar I entrén/receptionen, närheten till restauranger då ingen fanns inom hotellet
I've been all over Bucharest and this is most certainly the best hostel in the city. Very nice staff, cool terrace and kitchen, fast internet. Right by old center and all the bars. Nothing bad about the place. You might meet some strange tourists from all over the world but that's part of the fun of staying in a hostel in a big city.
Friendly cute girl at reception, after check in they left me alone which is nice. Wifi is smoking fast, I was able to download a 1 GB file in about 20 seconds. Cheap and right in the middle of centru vechi. Showers are weird, takes some finesse to get a good pressure and temperature. A compromise that comes with being in the middle of the party, you are surrounded by clubs that blast music all night and drunk people are screaming outside along with it. Security is a little questionable, use the provided lockers!

Pivotal Trial Support Provided for Lung Cancer Drug
SFJ Pharmaceuticals is to provide funding and supervise an international Phase III clinical trial evaluating Pfizer's pan-Her inhibitor dacomitinib (PF-00299804) as first-line therapy for locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with activating EGFR mutations. The trial will be carried out at multiple sites in Asia and Europe, and is designed to generate clinical data necessary to support a registration dossier for dacomitinib for regulatory submission. If the drug is subsequently approved SFJ will receive milestone and earn-out payments.
The deal is the second between the firms. SFJ has previously inked an agreement with Pfizer to carry out a Phase III trial in Asia evaluating the latter's Inlyta® (axitinib) for the adjuvant treatment of patients at high risk of recurrent renal cell carcinoma following nephrectomy.
Dacomitinib is an oral, once-daily small molecule inhibitor of Her-1, Her-2, and Her-4 tyrosine kinases. Pfizer's clinical development program includes two global Phase III trials evaluating the drug as second-line and refractory treatment for NSCLC.

Corey Dickerson put the Drillers on the board with a lead-off solo home run to make it 1-0. Mike Zuanich also blasted a two-run home run in the same inning that made it 3-0. Kiel Roling tacked on another home two-run home run in the top of the third inning to make it 5-0. Lars Davis added a solo home run in the top of the sixth inning.
Mike Montgomery (2-6) went six innings allowing eight hits and six runs, while walking one and striking out six. Joe Gardner (8-8) went seven innings allowing six hits and no runs, striking out three.
The Naturals offense got on the board in the bottom of the eighth inning get a two-run home run from Brian Fletcher. The home run was the tenth of the season for Fletcher.

I've been meaning to start this thread for weeks but haven't got around to it...
But here it is... What do you DIY around your home that other women & mothers could benefit from knowing? (If they're not already aware of them!)
1- if you've got stuff burnt on the bottom of a saucepan, use a bicarb soda paste to scrub the bottom of the saucepan.
2- add some bicarb soda to your washing for extra cleaning power.
3- to remove body odour from DH/DP's clothes, spray/soak them in vinegar for a little while (I do for 30 mins) and then wash as normal.
4- if you have left over lemons, take the rind and boil in 4 cups of water. Once cooled add 6 tablespoons of vinegar & 3 teaspoons of borax. Mix well and put into a empty spray bottle (or 2) and you have a nice citrus scented spray & wipe.
Then juice the lemons, and pour into a ice cube tray & freeze. You can empty the cubes into a ziplock bag after frozen if you need the tray for other ice. Then when you need fresh lemon juice just defrost as many cubes as you need. (I also do this with tomato paste as I never use a full jar within 30 days).
I'd love to hear other tried & true tips to use what is already around the home to waste less & save more money!

The SNP minority government was struggling last night to secure sufficient support to pass its £30billion Budget.
Less than 24 hours ahead of today's vote, ministers were still short of the necessary backing for the Bill to pass its final legislative hurdle, although talks with the other parties will go on until the last possible minute. A Scottish government spokesman gave warning last night that during a recession the Opposition would be "playing politics" with jobs if MSPs voted down the Budget.

My Slash seems a bit "average" speed wise on the stock battery. If I go 2S Lipo will there be a major speed increase? I know it will accelerate harder, but what about at the top. Still confused how 7.4V can be quicker than 8.4V. Thanks, hope the Lipo picks her up a bit.
You are right, the 2s Lipo will make the truck accelerate quicker than the stock battery. Top speed wise, the Lipo will be a little quicker also than the stock battery. Even though it is a lower voltage, it is just because Lithium Polymer is a much better technology than a Nickel Metal battery. You will see better acceleration and a little better top speed, but you will also see much longer run-times, especially if you get a 5000mah or above Lipo. However, if you want a huge speed and power increase, get a 3s! I love it! My 2s does just fine but I really only use it for racing, great power around corners but for for speed runs and bashing, 3s rules!
A 7.4v lipo charges to 8.4 (4.2v/cell). A 8.4 nimh charges around 10v. After you start to use the nimh the volts will be lower then the lipo in a heartbeat.

Prisoner of War by Charles Rollings
Book Description'For you, the war is over.' These famous words marked the end of the Second World War for nearly half a million allied servicemen, and the beginning of a very different battle in captivity. Waged against boredom, brutality, disease, hunger and despair, it was a battle for survival, fought without the aid of weapons against fully armed enemy captors. Based on interviews and correspondence with ex-POWs and their relatives over the last 30 years, "Prisoner of War" is a major survey of allied POWs from all walks of life. Extraordinary stories of extremes: courage, hope and desperation are revealed in the words of those that were there.Arranged chronologically, the book follows those involved from capture, through interrogation, imprisonment, escape, to final liberation and homecoming. POWs and, in particular, those who broke free, have become a post-war cultural icon; a symbol of the will to survive against the odds. Rich with incident and emotion, "Prisoner of War" is a compelling look at the lives of extraordinary individuals trapped behind the wire.

What Is Fahad Mustafa Up to? OST lyrics, title song mp3 download, timings, cast, drama review, written update (source: ReviewitPk)
Film/Drama actor and T.V host, Fahad Mustafa is reported to be next seen in an upcoming movie by the director of Zinda Bhaag, Meenu Gaur and Farjad Nabi. The story is written by Faseeh Bari but the title is yet to be given.
Fahad Mustafa's acting in Na Maloom Afraad was greatly praised and also became one of the reasons why people were looking forward to watch his film Actor In Law.
The proficient actor played the roles in drams such as Main Abdul Qadir Hon, Ek tamanna Lahasil Si, Kankar, and Dusri Bivi spectacularly, before making his debut on the silver screen with film Na Maloom Afraad as Farhan.
After the massive success of Actor In Law, Fahad's fans are expecting him to maintain the excellent quality of his performance and choice of roles. Best wishes to the skillful actor for his upcoming project.

Harden's survey result
For 25 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. This year diners have submitted over 60,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK.
"Everyone should book and make a detour when heading past on the A1, for this total delight from start to finish". Harry & Caroline Hallam's "cosy" front room provides the venue for this unique 10-seat venture which delivers "ravishing yet simple haute cuisine from a tiny hand-written menu" (with Harry buying "whatever is available and good on the day"). Caroline's service "couldn't be more friendly and welcoming" – if there's a concern it's that it can "feel slightly awkward if you're the only table there" (but even that strikes some reporters as "romantic").
"It should be on everyone's bucket list!"; Harry & Caroline Hallam's "unique" 10-seat venture "never fails to delight", thanks to his "exquisite French-based cooking" and her "exceptional attention to detail"; of necessity though, the atmosphere is "rather dependent on who else is dining that day".
"The sureness of touch and the warmth of the welcome fully justify the price", at Harry and Caroline Hallam's 10-seater one-off, where – though choice is limited – the cooking is "brilliant"; "it's about the only place this expensive where we come away every time working out how soon we can afford to go again…"

festive season News
B-town goes a-bling!
It's that time of the year when you wouldn't mind flaunting a sequin-laden dress, even at the expense of blinding others!
The bling season has arrived. With an array of festivals round the corner, clothes that have been languishing in the closet for a while are finally out. The urge to look jazzy gets infectious. And the people who are usually the biggest source of inspiration are B-town celebs. They set trends, they prod us to buy the most expensive outfits clinging to lifeless mannequins, and they also bring that dormant shopaholic in us to life every time they blink with that bling and jangle those bangles…
We take you through a roster of actors who have gone traditional this festive season. Most of them get it right, while a couple are content despite the fashion faux pas… Click here to read more

OMG, your sis is amazing! I can imagine the mini-heart attacks scene! Really scary, but sometimes we do tend to overthink!
@KalaRavi16 from
My goodness! She truly is a brave heart. Otherwise travelling in trains in India in sleeper class is only a nightmare, forget about the general compartment, that too a female for the night journey!
Good, your mom has no idea about what your sister did :)
We've all been there, Raj...life does bring you moments like these that you treasure later. Quirky alright, but remember she won't do it in her later years!ReplyDelete
Truly a weird experience there! I remember travelling by train overnight, and even though I was in the sleeper class, I was awake the whole night, scared for no apparent reason!
Good heavensssss. Bless ur sis :) I have done many foolhardy things when in my twenties and equally dangerous ;) I should do a post on them sometime :D
OMG that is some experience! Your sis is amazing!

Once while traveling with my mom and younger brother, we had mistakenly boarded the wrong compartment and by the time the train reached the next station the tc had sold our berths to someone else. We slept on the floor, between the seats from Mathura to Mumbai, dad was furious when he heard our sad story.ReplyDelete
Q is Quirky for me too!
And I love your sister already.
Rajlakshmi!! That's quite an experience that only train travel gives us. Once, I traveled on an non-booked but paid at CST for a Hyderabad train stopping at Mumbai to Pune with a huge bag stacked on me. It was suffocating and spend a good hour standing inside the toilet!! Yes!! I swear. Can you imagine?ReplyDelete
Sounds like a brave yet foolish undertaking! Glad your sister survived the trip without incident.ReplyDelete
Thank you for your presence!! Don't forget to leave behind a comment. Love, Feedback, Brickbats!! Everything's welcome :)
Year end always messes with my mind. It's like running against time, fumbling through checklists and goals, trying to tick atleast few...

If the Bills release Tyrod, would you be worried he'd be really good elsewhere?
Yes. That's a big reason why I think they should keep him.
No. I think we have seen his ceiling.

Health Professional Shortage Area/Maps
Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs) and Medically Underserved Areas/Populations (MUA/Ps), established under the U.S. Public Health Service Act (Sections 330 (MUA/P) and 332 (HPSA), are federal designations of geographic areas, population groups, or facilities which meet the criteria as needing additional primary care services. In addition, Health Care Safety Net Amendments (2002) authorized automatic facility HPSA designations for federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and the FQHC look-a-likes. FQHCs include community health centers, public housing centers, outpatient health programs funded by the Indian Health Service (including urban Indian organizations receiving funds under Title V of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act and tribal 638 programs), and programs serving migrants and the homeless. These amendments also authorized facility designations for rural health clinics through a simple application. The authority for designations is delegated to the Bureau of Primary Health Care's Division of shortage Designation. Currently, over 37 federal programs use the HPSA an MUA/MUP Designation for eligibility or preference including HRSA/Division of NHSC (scholarship and loan repayment programs), HRSA's Primary Care: The Health Center Program (Community and Migrant Health Centers and federally qualified health center look-a-likes), Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (Physicians Bonus Payment Program), Conrad "State-30" Program, J-1 Visa Waiver Program, State Health Departments, HRSA/BHPR Title VII and Title VIII Grants, Rural Health Clinic Act, and Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration.
Information regarding shortage designations is provided free of charge to all North Dakota communities.

NHSC Ambassador Program
The National Health Services Corps is a federal program committed to improving the health of the Nation's underserved. The NHSC Ambassador Program is a membership organization comprised of a dedicated group of volunteers on campuses and in communities across the Nation. These volunteers, or "Ambassadors," work in partnership with the NHSC to improve the health of the Nation's underserved. Ambassadors self-identify as either Campus-based, Community-based, or both. Together, these Ambassadors provide a "Continuum of Support" for students and clinicians who are dedicated to providing uncompromised healthcare services to areas across the country that lack an adequate number of healthcare providers.
Ambassadors promote primary care careers in service to the underserved and understand what it takes to both enter into this field and to sustain a career in it. Ambassadors link students and clinicians with volunteer and employment opportunities that match their career interest, and hold brown bag informational meetings to advise students and clinicians on how to enter a career in service to the underserved and how to successfully sustain their career once it is established Campus-based Ambassadors help to prepare and train students and clinicians to work in health professional shortage areas and bring students and clinicians who are interested in primary care together to foster discussion, share resources, and arrange training opportunities. Ambassadors' direct link to communities and to the NHSC can help students arrange challenging and meaningful community-based training opportunities. They also can use their experience and knowledge of working in underserved communities to advise and support students and clinicians who have a desire to work in such areas. Students and clinicians can utilize Ambassadors as a source of information, as well as obtain insight and guidance to aid their efforts of being a successful clinician in an underserved area. Ambassadors can champion the need for primary care in underserved communities and highlight the importance of this career track either on campus or in the community. In addition, students and clinicians can look to Ambassadors as an example on how to advocate for primary care.
Ambassadors serve as speakers at NHSC events and meetings, educate the local community and/or campus about service to the underserved and promote the concept of "Healthier Communities", and participate in National Primary Care Week activities. Mary Amundson is an ambassador at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences. Mary can be contacted at 701-777-4018 or email@example.com.

J-1 Visa Waiver Program - Flex- 2 Remaining Slots; HPSA-18 Remaining Slots
North Dakota Conrad 30-J1 Waiver Program
Introduction: North Dakota's Senator Kent Conrad introduced legislation in 1994 that created the Conrad J-1 Visa Waiver program which provides an opportunity for Foreign Medical Graduates or International Medical Graduates, also known as J-1 physicians, to train and practice in the United States (U.S.). The J-1's are physicians from other countries who have received a J-1 exchange visitor visa which allows them to remain in the United States to complete their educational training. Upon completion of their training, the physician must return to their home country for two years before they can apply for a permanent visa in the United States.
The legislation introduced by Senator Conrad waives the two-year home residency requirement but required that the physician practice for three years in a federally designated Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) or Medically Underserved Area/Population (MUA/MUP) if sponsored by an interested U.S. government agency. State government agencies may recommend J-1 physician waiver requests under the Conrad State 30 Program. Thirty waivers are allowed for each state that participates in the waiver program. Ten of the thirty slots (Flex slots) can be used for sub-specialists in non-HPSA/MUA/MUPs. If, by April 1 of each calendar year, any of the 10 slots are unfilled, the slots can be used for any non-HPSA site for any specialty, including family medicine, that serves populations from the HPSA/MUA/MUP areas.
The state of North Dakota participates in the administration of the Conrad J-1 Visa Waiver program as another way to assist communities in obtaining quality health care. The program is administered through the North Dakota Department of Health (NDDoH) with assistance from the University of North Dakota Department of Family & Community Medicine's Office of Primary Care (OPC).
Health care facilities and applicants receiving waivers under this program must each agree to complete annual surveys distributed by the OPC to verify employment.
Procedures for Beginning the J-1 Process
To begin the process, the applicant contacts Mary Amundson (701-777-4018) or by E-mail email@example.com) at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine & Health Sciences Department of Family & Community Medicine, Office of Primary Care (OPC) to ensure that the applicant and physician meet the requirements to qualify for the waiver. The steps outlined below apply to both the 10 Flex slots allocated to areas that are not located in Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSA) and Medically Underserved Areas (MUAs) and the 20 slots utilized by facilities that are located in HPSAs/MUAs.
Step 1: Prior to applying for the J-1 visa waiver, an applicant must send a completed Data Sheet (form DS-3035), two self-addressed, stamped, legal-size envelopes (S.A.S.E.) and a filing fee to the U.S. Department of State and receive a case number. The case number must appear on all documents filed with the application.
Step 2: Application is made to the North Dakota Department of Health (NDDoH) requesting a waiver.
- To apply for a waiver, a waiver package must be submitted to Mary Amundson at the OPC working on behalf of the NDDoH for review. Two copies of the required information and documentation must be submitted in a single package with documents presented in the order set forth in the checklist. All documents must contain the case number assigned by the U.S. Department of State. Waiver requests that do no comply with these requirements will be returned to the submitting health care facility for revision.
- When approved, the OPC will assign review numbers to the J-1 applications in the order they are received.
- It is recommended that waiver requests be submitted from a health care facility or an immigration law firm representing the health care facility on behalf of a J-1 physician. For the Flex slots only: one waiver per month per organization will be permitted for review from October 1st through April 1st. If slots remain after April 1st, all applications will be accepted and reviewed in the order received.
- Applications submitted must contain all required documentation and be ready to submit to the U.S. Department of State. A number will not be assigned until the application has been reviewed for completeness. If any required documentation is missing from the application, the application will be removed from the review list and returned to the applicant. Numbers will not be assigned to returned applications. Another completed application may be resubmitted but will be assigned a new review number and review priority. No amendments to the application will be allowed while the application is under review. This process may be modified or discontinued at any time. The NDDoH reserves the right to recommend or decline any request for a waiver.
- The NDDoH may prioritize applications to ensure access to health care services for citizens of the state and will make the decision whether to recommend a request for the waiver. This process can take two to four weeks.
Step 3: If approved, the application will be sent to the U.S. Department of State.
- U.S. Department of State reviews the J-1 waiver application and considers the state recommendations.
- If approved, the application/recommendation, is sent to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to provide the final waiver approval. This process may take two to six weeks.

HPSAs and MUA/Ps designated shortage areas are also the vehicle by which Rural Health Clinics obtain their certification. Additionally, over 40 federal programs have attached HPSA and/or MUA/P designation as criteria to access those programs and funds, including the Medicare incentive program for physicians.

Hello again,
A couple of hours late, but here's the "Independence Day Beta" of Weasel 1.61:
The new changes/features/fixes from the Changelog:
* Added a directory stack so Weasel now remembers the previous list selection when you browse back to the previous directory. It's a very simple method, however, and Weasel will not, for example, select the correct entry if Weasel starts in a directory three levels down and you browse to the parent directory because the directory stack will be empty at that point.
* Bugfix: If you had >160 documents in any one location, Weasel would try to allocate to much memory for the index and crash. Weasel now uses an alternate method of allocating space for the index array and the limit is now around 12000.
* Add a "Most Recently Read" list to Weasel which tracks recently read documents. The list may be found in the root level of the index browser. It keeps track of the last 10 opened documents. This number can be altered in weasel.h to something higher/lower.
* Bugfix: When importing a doc from VFS to main mem, Weasel would fail with the wrong error message if a doc with the same name already existed in main memory. Weasel now falls back to readonly mode in this case.
* Added a 16bpp hi-res logo for the About dialog and removed the 8bpp hi-res logo. The 8bpp hi-res logo doesn't look very good and most devices that can display it can also do 16bpp. The only downside is that the 16bpp logo adds 42K to the size of the PRC. But... devices have so much storage these days. And you can still turn it off in the Makefile.
The directory stack and bugfixes weren't too much trouble. Most of the work was getting the MRU list working properly since the code made a lot of assumptions about where documents were located in the index data structures. Most of those assumptions are gone (or at least changed) now.
I've also added a new "action" to the choices for key mapping. Along with returning to the index, you can now have a button jump straight to the MRU list instead of wherever the index previously was.
Please test! This will probably be the final beta before the 1.61 release. I'm contemplating adding support for regular text files (i.e. files on memory cards with .txt extensions). I don't *think* this will be much extra work, but then I thought that about the MRU list before I got started.
Ideally, since Weasel already requires zLib to function, Weasel could display .gz files as well, but they are not compressed like zTXT documents and it would require creating an uncompressed temp file somewhere in the expansion memory. Also, most users are probably not familiar with .gz, but rather with .zip files. I don't really want to write code to parse zip headers and then have to make an educated guess about which file inside the zip to actually display...
Happy Independence Day to all US Weasel users!

text: How to learn Parkour moves Understanding how to learn Parkour moves correctly can be a great time saver on the long run. Depending on what you are trying to learn, you can spend from one day to a whole week, or month to learn a Free running or Parkour move. There are a few steps that you can take in order to master a movement faster. Here are a few tricks that you can use to speed up things: Visualize the movement in your head The more you try to visualize how to perform a move, the more you will understand how your body behaves when performing it. Mental preparation is an important step in learning how to perform a Parkour or Free running move. Try to break down the movement into smaller ones and remember the stages it is comprised of. This will help you see why and where you failed each time and will help you figure out ways to improve it. Condition your body for the movement Try to strengthen the parts of the body that will bear the load. If you are learning a side-flip you will definitely need to condition your legs. If you are trying to improve your cat-leap or handstand, you will want to work on your arms more. Conditioning your body also give you confidence and help you get over your fear of performing the movement. Usually, a few days of hard conditioning, with the appropriate recovery days in between, will give you the boost you need to nail the trick or vault. Practice with a friend The first time is always harder to execute a move on your own. So, try to have a friend help or support you for more confidence. If you are going to learn the back-flip, for example, you might want him to put his hand on your back, to give you an extra spin, if necessary. Or if you are trying to learn a side flip, have a friend bend over, so you can jump over him, without fear of falling on your head. It's recommended to have with you a friend with some experience in the movement you are trying to learn. This way, he'll be able to spot your mistakes more easily and correct them with some advice. What's your advice on learning new Parkour moves?

Plasma level of total homocysteine (tHcy) is negatively correlated with kidney function in general population. However, the causal mechanism of this correlation is poorly understood. The purpose of this study is to investigate the association of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T gene polymorphism, which is a major genetic determinant of the plasma tHcy level, with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in Chinese.
A total of 18 814 hypertensive patients (6 914 males, 11 900 females) were included in the study.
Association between the eGFR and MTHFR C677T genotype was examined by sex-specific regression analyses. In males, TT genotype was associated with 1.37ml/min/1.73m2 decrease in eGFR (p=0.004) and with an increased risk (OR=1.32, p=0.008) for the lowest quintile of eGFR after adjusting for age, BMI, and blood pressures. However, such association was not observed in females (p>0.05). This association suggests MTHFR C677T polymorphism may play a role in the regulation of eGFR in males.
MTHFR 677T is a risk allele for decreased kidney function in Chinese males, implicating this gene in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Glomerular filtration rate estimated from serum creatinine level (eGFR) is an important measurement of kidney function, and frequently used to define stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Plasma level of total homocysteine (tHcy) is negatively correlated with kidney function in general population [1,2]. However, the causal mechanism of this correlation is poorly understood. Significant loss of kidney function will inevitably lead to hyperhomocysteinemia, as frequently observed in patients with end-stage renal disease. On the other hand, hyperhomocysteinemia could induce glomerular injury in animal studies [3-7], though it's not clear if hyperhomocysteinemia play a pathogenic role in decreased kidney function in humans. A recent prospective study suggested tHcy is an independent predictor for CKD [8].
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, a co-substrate for homocysteine remethylation to methionine. C677T, a single nucleotide polymorphism (C–>T) at nucleotide position 677, leads to Ala–>Val codon substitution at amino acid position 222. MTHFR C677T is a major genetic determinant for hyperhomocysteinemia, and has been shown to be associated with risks for stroke, coronary heart disease, neural tube defect, depression, schizophrenia, cancer, and a number of other disease statuses [9-14]. However, few have investigated the association between C677T and kidney function. Given the fact that kidney function and tHcy is well correlated and that C677T is a major determinant of tHcy, it would be interesting to test if C677T is associated with kidney function in general populations.
In this report, we performed a cross-sectional analysis on association of MTHFR C677T polymorphism with eGFR in 18814 Chinese adults.
The study subjects were participants of an ongoing China Stroke Primary Prevention Trial (CSPPT, clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT00794885) in Lianyungang, Jiangsu province of China. CSPPT is a multi-center randomized controlled trial designed to confirm that enalapril maleate and folic acid tablets is more effective in preventing stroke among the patients with primary hypertension when compared with enalapril maleate. Details for inclusion/exclusion criteria, treatment assignment, and outcome measures of the trial were described elsewhere (http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00794885). In the current study, we included 18 814 subjects from Lianyungang who participated in the screening phase of the trial and had valid measurements of MTHFR C677T genotype and baseline serum creatinine. The Human Subject Committee at the Biomedical Institute of the Anhui Medical University approved the study.
Researchers went to the communities to screen local residents for hypertensive patients. Candidate hypertensive patients were then invited to study centers for a formal screening visit. Each participant was asked to fast after 10PM the night before the visit. During the screening visit, every participant gave the informed consent and then the following baseline data were collected.
Questionnaires were administered to collect information on sociodemographic status, occupation, diet, lifestyle, health behavior, medical history, and medication, as well as reproductive history for women.
Height was measured without shoes to the nearest 0.1cm on a portable stadiometer. Weight was measured in light indoor clothing without shoes to the nearest 0.1kg. WC was measured as the minimum circumference between the inferior margin of the ribcage and the crest of the iliac. Hip circumference was measured at the level of maximum extension of the buttocks. BMI was calculated as weight/height squared (kg/m2).
Resting blood pressures were measured three times in a sitting position after 10 minutes of rest using a mercury sphygmomanometer. Three blood pressure reads were then averaged.
Venous blood was drawn from the forearm of each participant in the fasting status. Serum and plasma were separated from blood cells in the field within 30 minutes and kept frozen at −70°C.
Serum creatinine was measured by a modified kinetic rate Jaffe reaction method using a Dade Dimension Chemistry Analyzer (Siemens, Germany). Serum glucose and total cholesterol were also measured on the same analyzer. Plasma homocysteine was measured by an enzyme-cycling method using a Hitachi 7020 Automatic Analyzer (Hitachi, Japan). DNA was extracted from leukocytes in peripheral blood using standard techniques. MTHFR C677T genotype was determined by Taqman assay designed and manufactured by Applied Biosystems (Foster City, CA).
EGFR was estimated using the CKD-EPI equation as following [15]: eGFR=141×min (Scr/κ,1)α×max (Scr/κ,1)-1.209×0.993Age×1.018 [if female], where Scr is serum creatinine (mg/dL), κ is 0.7 for females and 0.9 for males, α is −0.329 for females and −0.411 for males.
The empirical sex-specific distributions of eGFR were estimated using a kernel density estimating function. Genotype distribution was tested for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) using a χ2 test. Sex-specific regression analyses were performed to investigate the association between eGFR and C677T genotype and to estimate the genotype's odds ratio for low eGFR and CKD, adjusting for age, BMI, and systolic and diastolic pressure. All the analyses were done using the statistical package R [16].
This study includes 18814 hypertensive subjects (6914 males, 11900 females) from Lianyungang, China who participated in the screening phase of CSPPT and had valid measurements of baseline serum creatinine level and MTHFR genotype. The phenotypic characteristics of subjects were summarized in Table Table1.1. In this population females had considerably higher body mass index (BMI) than males (26.1 vs 25.0kg/m2), while the reverse was true for blood creatinine and tHcy levels. The percentages of subject with diabetic fasting plasma glucose level (FPG ≥7.0mmol/L) were 11.7% and 13.3%, respectively, in males and females. The percentages of subjects with CKD (eGFR<60ml/min/1.73m2) were 3.1% and 3.4%, respectively in males and females. The risk-bearing T allele is more common than C allele, with an allele frequency of 0.51 and a TT genotype frequency of 0.26. The distribution was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (p>0.05).
The distributions of eGFR in both genders were quite similar, though it was slightly shifted to the right in female (Figure (Figure1).1). Homocysteine and eGFR were inversely correlated, with spearman correlation coefficient rho=−0.25 (−0.22 in males and −0.28 in females).
Taking eGFR as a quantitative outcome in the regression analyses with adjustment for age, BMI, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure, a significant association of MTHFR C677T genotype and eGFR was observed in males but not in females (Table (Table2).2). In males, while there was little difference in eGFR among subjects with CC and CT genotypes, TT homozygotes had 1.37ml/min/1.73m2 lower eGFR than CC homozygotes (p=0.004). Similarly, when dividing subjects in eGFR quintiles and comparing genotype frequencies, higher TT genotype frequencies were observed in the low eGFR quintiles (Q1-3, Table Table3)3) in males. In females, genotype frequencies varied little across eGFR quintiles. In males, TT genotype was associated with a higher risk for decreased kidney function after adjusting for age, BMI, and blood pressures, with OR=1.32 (95% CI:1.08-1.62, p=0.008) for the lowest quintile of eGFR, OR=1.25 (95% CI:1.11-1.41, p=0.0003) for the lower half of eGFR, and OR=1.21 (95% CI: 0.89-1.63, p=0.22) for CKD defined as eGFR<60ml/min/1.73m2. No such association was observed in females.
Since C677T genotype, homocysteine, and eGFR are significantly correlated, it is difficult to segregate the individual effect of genotype and homocysteine on eGFR in a regression analysis. Nevertheless, regression analysis of eGFR with an interactive term between genotype and homocysteine (Table (Table4)4) revealed the similar sex-specific effect of C677T genotype, while plasma homocysteine levels were inversely associated with eGFR in both genders. A significant interaction between TT genotype and homocysteine on eGFR was observed only in males: the regression coefficient of homocysteine was attenuated in TT homozygotes compared with CC homozygotes (p=0.002).
In this report, we have demonstrated that MTHFR C677T genotype is associated with eGFR in Chinese males, but not in females. The association still holds after adjusting for age, BMI, and blood pressures.
The Val form of MTHFR encoded by the 677T allele is thermolabile and has reduced enzymatic activity [9]. The degree of enzyme thermolability (assessed as residual activity after heat inactivation) is much greater in 677TT individuals (18-22%) compared with C677T (56%) and C677C (66-67%). The allele frequency of 677T varies with populations, ranging from less than 10% in African to 50% in Chinese [12]. Consistent with previous reports, in our study samples 677T is the major allele with an allele frequency of 0.516 and TT homozygote frequency of 0.26.
Many cross-sectional studies showed that plasma tHcy and kidney function was negatively correlated. For example, in NHANES III study [1], the risk for CKD defined as eGFR<60ml/min/1.73m2 in individuals with high tHcy level (>11umol/L) was 40 times higher than those with low tHcy level (<7umol/L). However, it's still not clear if hyperhomocysteinemia is the true effector that leads to decreased kidney function or it is simply a marker for kidney function. A recent prospective study in the Framingham cohort demonstrated that baseline homocysteine is an independent risk predictor for CKD and urine microalbuminuria [8]. In animal studies, induced hyperhomocysteinemia could cause podocyte injury and glomerulosclerosis [5-7]. Feeding rats with methionine induced hyperhomocysteinemia and resulted in significant decrease of GFR.
In the current study, we explored association between MTHFR C677T and kidney function indexed by eGFR in a large Chinese sample, and found a significant association in males but not in females. In males, the association model was apparently recessive. While individuals with CC and CT had similar eGFRs, individuals with TT were associated with 1.37ml/min/1.73m2 lower value in eGFR, and an increased risk for decreased kidney function defined by bottom 20 or 50 percentiles. Of our study subjects, 3.3% had CKD with eGFR<60ml/min/1.73m2, which is slightly higher than the 2.53% prevalence rate in China adults aged 35–74years reported from the InterAsia [17], partly due to the hypertensive nature of our study sample. Our study also suggested TT genotype was associated with an increase risk of CKD (OR=1.21, p=0.22), though it didn't reach statistical significance probably due to the low percentage of CKD in our sample.
We have also observed a significant interaction between C677T genotype and homocysteine on eGFR in males. In males, the apparent effect size of homocysteine on eGFR was significantly reduced in TT homozygotes compared with subjects with CC genotype. In other words, the TT effect size was bigger in subjects with lower homocysteine level. However, due to collinearity, it is difficult to segregate their effects under current study design. Another limitation of our study is the study population was hypertensive; the findings from this study may not be generalizable to general population. A confirmation in general population would be helpful.
In conclusion, we have demonstrated MTHFR 677T is a risk allele for decreased kidney function in hypertensive Chinese males, implicating this gene in the pathogenesis of CKD. Given the relationship among MTHFR, tHcy and eGFR, it would be temptational to speculate that tHcy mediate MTHFR's effect on CKD. The ongoing CSPPT trial, which is essentially a homocysteine-lowering trial, should provide a more definitive answer when it completes.

We illustrate a Swedish ice hockey player in a dramatic tackle with an opponent from another team. The visual and dramatic colour splash also went outside the traditional frames of advertising billboards in a very literal way.

come on guys, it looks like there's blood all over the walls - nothing you want to be linked to fair play and sport. this isn't a dramatic tackle, this is ripping the opponent apart, which is far too much in a public environment. they just fucked it up using the red colour.
what's the brand?
Great visual. For sure an eye-catcher.
@stickynotes this is hockey - supposed to be brutal ;)
Should have picked an opponent without a red jersey... it looks like the guy literally exploded all over the wall.

I guess that's kinda the point... Blood, guts and glory.
Does anyone watch hockey!?
