Enterococci in the qPCR assay also showed a moderate correlation with the culture method. The AIM06 and SR14 phage results indicated continuing human faecal pollution along the river with no significant different levels among stations. Interestingly, the higher levels of enterococci in downstream stations for both the qPCR and culture methods along with the significant correlation with other faecal indicator organisms and non-human MST markers implied non-human faecal pollution. In conclusion, this study provides insightful information that could lead to effective water quality management and public health risk reduction from exposure to faecally-contaminated water. BACKGROUND A number of epidemiologic studies with a variety of exposure assessment approaches have implicated pesticides as risk factors for childhood cancers. Here we explore the association of pesticide exposure in pregnancy and early childhood with childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) utilizing land use and pesticide use data in a sophisticated GIS tool. METHODS We identified cancer cases less than 6 years of age from the California Cancer Registry and cancer-free controls from birth certificates. Analyses were restricted to those living in rural areas and born 1998-2011, resulting in 162 cases of childhood leukemia and 9,805 controls. Possible carcinogens were selected from the Environmental Protection Agency's classifications and pesticide use was collected from the California Department of Pesticide Regulation's (CDPR) Pesticide Use Reporting (PUR) system and linked to land-use surveys. Exposures for subjects were assessed using a 4000m buffer around the geocodedneficial. Combining cognitive retraining with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been hypothesized to improve cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. The effect
