All the questions refer to an experimental drug (RDRPkill), designed to treat COVID-19. The drug is a specific inhibitor of the coronavirus specific RNA-directed RNA-polymerase. Although it does not dissolve in pure water, RDRPkill is soluble in 10% (w/v) ethanol or pure dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). It is supplied in vials that generally contain 5 mg of powder. Liquid is transferred in and out of these vials by puncturing the rubber seal at the top with a syringe. 5. You are setting up multiple lung cell incubations. These lung cells adhere to and grow on the bottom of a plastic well as a monolayer. This picture shows a 24-well plate. The culture medium, which comes pre-made from a commercial supplier) is added into the wells, onto the cells. Media supplements such as glucose, virus and drug are later added into the culture medium In your experiment you will set up a 24-well plate, with 1 mL of culture medium in each of the wells. In the culture medium you will need to add glucose to a final concentration of 5 mM (to make the lung cells happy). 1,000 COVID-19 viruses will be added to 20 of the wells on each plate (this won’t make the cells so happy). The incubations will take place in the absence or presence of RDRPkill (concentrations ranging from 0 to 50 μM). The glucose is supplied as a 500 mM stock solution. The virus is supplied as a suspension which contains 1 million viruses per μL. You have your RDRPkill stock solution which is 10 mM.

a. How would you set up ONE well containing 1 mL culture medium, 5 mM glucose, 1,000 COVID-19 viruses, and 50 μM RDRPkill?

b. When setting up the entire experiment, your supervisor suggests that you make up a Master Mix containing culture medium, virus and glucose – thus meaning that you only need add about 1 mL of this to each well How would you make up that master mix?

c. Explain, in general terms and perhaps using a picture of the plate or a table, how you would organise the plate.

Question #: 15
BACKGROUND: Seizure is a common complication after stroke (termed "post-stroke seizure," PSS). Although many studies have assessed outcomes and risk factors of PSS, no reliable predictors are currently available to determine PSS recurrence. We compared baseline clinical characteristics and post- stroke treatment regimens between recurrent and non-recurrent PSS patients to identify factors predictive of recurrence.
METHODS: Consecutive PSS patients admitted to our stroke center between January 2011 and July 2013 were monitored until February 2014 (median 357 days; IQR, 160-552) and retrospectively evaluated for baseline clinical characteristics and PSS recurrence. Cumulative recurrence rates at 90, 180, and 360 days post-stroke were estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Independent predictors of recurrent PSS were identified by Cox proportional-hazards analysis.
RESULTS: A total of 104 patients (71 men; mean age, 72.1 ±11.2 years) were analyzed. PSS recurred in 31 patients (30%) during the follow-up. Factors significantly associated with PSS recurrence by log-rank analysis included previous PSS, valproic acid (VPA) monotherapy, polytherapy with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), frontal cortical lesion, and higher modified Rankin Scale score at discharge (all p <0.05). Independent predictors of recurrent PSS were age <74 years (HR 2.38, 95% CI 1.02-5.90), VPA monotherapy (HR 3.86, 95% CI 1.30-12.62), and convulsions on admission (HR 3.87, 95% CI 1.35-12.76). CONCLUSIONS: Approximately one-third of PSS patients experienced seizure recurrence within one year. The predictors of recurrent PSS were younger age, presence of convulsions and VPA monotherapy. Our findings should be interpreted cautiously in countries where monotherapy with second-generation AEDs has been approved because this study was conducted while second-generation AEDs had not been officially approved for monotherapy in Japan.

Part A In late 2015, the Nicklaus Corporation was formed. The corporate charter authorizes the issuance of 6,000,000 shares of common stock carrying a $1 par value, and 2,000,000 shares of $5 par value, noncumulative, nonparticipating preferred stock. On January 2, 2016, 4,000,000 shares of the common stock are issued in exchange for cash at an average price of $15 per share. Also on January 2, all 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock are issued at $20 per share.

Part B During 2016, the Nicklaus Corporation participated in three treasury stock transactions: a.On June 30, 2016, the corporation reacquires 300,000 shares for the treasury at a price of $17 per share. b.On July 31, 2016, 75,000 treasury shares are reissued at $20 per share. c.On September 30, 2016, 75,000 treasury shares are reissued at $15 per share.

Part C On October 1, 2016, Nicklaus Corporation receives permission to replace its $1 par value common stock (6,000,000 shares authorized, 4,000,000 shares issued, and 3,850,000 shares outstanding) with a new common stock issue having a $.50 par value. Since the new par value is one-half the amount of the old, this represents a 2-for-1 stock split. That is, the shareholders will receive two shares of the $.50 par stock in exchange for each share of the $1 par stock they own. The $1 par stock will be collected and destroyed by the issuing corporation.    On November 1, 2016, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a $0.25 per share cash dividend on common stock and a $0.40 per share cash dividend on preferred stock. Payment is scheduled for December 1, 2016, to shareholders of record on November 15, 2016.    On December 2, 2016, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a 2% stock dividend payable on December 28, 2016, to shareholders of record on December 14. At the date of declaration, the common stock was selling in the open market at $15 per share. The dividend will result in 154,000 (0.02 × 7,700,000) additional shares being issued to shareholders.

Required: 1. Prepare journal entries to record the declaration and payment of these stock and cash dividends. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

1 Record the entry for a 2-for-1 stock split.

2 Record declaration of cash dividend for common shares and preferred shares.

3 Record the entry on date of record.

4 Record payment of cash dividend for common shares and preferred shares.

2.

Prepare the December 31, 2016, shareholders' equity section of the balance sheet for the Nicklaus Corporation. (Assume net income for the fourth quarter was $3,000,000.)

Both the quick and current ratios for 2016 decreased in the past year. The current ratio remains above 1.0, but this is driven in large part by high inventory levels, implying Nordstrom may have difficulty converting assets to cash. In addition, its interest coverage ratio remains high, indicating it has it may have difficulty making interest payments on its debt. Both the quick and current ratios for 2016 decreased in the past year but are higher than 1.0, implying Nordstrom is relatively liquid. Nordstrom's interest coverage ratio remains high, indicating it has the ability to cover interest payments on its debt. Both the quick and current ratios for 2016 decreased in the past year. The current ratio remains above 1.0, but this is driven in large part by high inventory levels, implying Nordstrom may have difficulty converting assets to cash. However, its interest coverage ratio remains high, indicating it has the ability to cover interest payments on its debt. Both the quick and current ratios for 2016 decreased in the past year but are higher than 1.0, implying Nordstrom is relatively liquid. Nordstrom's interest coverage ratio is weak, indicating it may have difficulty making interest payments on its debt.

In 2016, the mean salary for all Ontario public employees in the School Board sector with salaries of at least $100,000 was 114.35 (in thousands of dollars), and the standard deviation was 15.67 (also in thousands of dollars). Let ??Xi be the salary of one randomly selected employee (denoted i), and let ?¯X¯ be the sample mean for a sample of 500 employees with salaries of at least $100,000 from the School Board sector.

(i) Which is larger: ?(??>116)P(Xi>116) or ?(?¯>116)?P(X¯>116)? Explain. (ii) Compute any probabilities possible with the given information.

(b) [6 pts] Suppose we know that ?(??>120)=?P(Xi>120)=a, where ?a is a constant. We define a new random variable ??Yi for each i, where ??Yi is equal to 1 if ??>120Xi>120 and is equal to 0 otherwise (??Xi is defined in part (a)). Also let ?=∑200?=1??W=∑i=1200Yi, where we assume that all the ??Yi’s are independent and have the same distribution.

What kind of distribution does ??Yi have (hint: it has a name)? What are the values of its parameter(s)? What kind of distribution does ?W have (it also has a name)? What are the values of its parameters? Explain in 1 sentence how you know ?W has this distribution.

(c) [6 pts] Suppose now that ?=0.3a=0.3. What is ?(?>70)P(W>70)? Use an appropriate approximation and correct for continuity. Give a clear interpretation (1 sentence).
