Abstract: With the availability of high frequency data and new techniques for the management of noise in signals, we revisit the question, can we predict financial asset prices? The present work proposes an algorithm for next-step log-return prediction. Data in frequencies from 1 to 15 minutes, for 25 high capitalization assets in the Mexican market were used. The model applied consists on a wavelet followed by a Long Short-Term Memory neural network (LSTM). Application of either wavelets or neural networks in finance are common, the novelty comes from the application of the particular architecture proposed. The results show that, on average, the proposed LSTM neuro-wavelet model outperforms both an ARIMA model and a benchmark dense neural network model. We conclude that, although further research (in other stock markets, at higher frequencies, etc.) is in order, given the ever increasing technical capacity of market participants, the inclusion of the LSTM neuro-wavelet model is a valuable addition to the market participant toolkit, and might pose an advantage to traditional predictive tools.

Abstract: Background Emergency medical services (EMS) response volume has been linked to weather and temporal factors in a regional EMS system. We aimed to identify if models of EMS utilization incorporating these data are generalizable through geographically disparate areas in the United States. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of EMS dispatch data from four regions: New York City, San Francisco, Cincinnati, and Marin County for years 2016–2019. For each model, we used local weather data summarized from the prior 6 h into hourly bins. Our outcome for each model was EMS dispatches as count data. We fit and optimized a negative binomial regression model for each region, to estimate incidence rate ratios. We compared findings to a prior study performed in Western Pennsylvania. Results We included 5,940,637 EMS dispatches from New York City, 809,405 from San Francisco, 260,412 from Cincinnati, and 77,461 from Marin County. Models demonstrated consistency with the Western Pennsylvania model with respect to temperature, season, wind speed, dew point, and time of day; both in terms of direction and effect size when expressed as incidence rate ratios. Precipitation was associated with increasing dispatches in the New York City, Cincinnati, and Marin County models, but not the San Francisco model. Conclusion With minor differences, regional models demonstrated consistent associations between dispatches and time and weather variables. Findings demonstrate the generalizability of associations between these variables with respect to EMS use. Weather and temporal factors should be considered in predictive modeling to optimize EMS staffing and resource allocation.

Abstract: Larkinia grandis (Broderip & G.B. Sowerby I, 1829), an important fishing resource for Mexican communities, is an Arcidae clam. It is also considered a species with aquaculture potential. In this work we investigated the gonadal phases and sexuality in a population of L. grandis in the Gulf of California. Our findings support the hypothesis that there is one male per female in the population studied. It also documents that the shape, position and color of the gonads of L. grandis are consistent with observations in other Arcidae species. Additionally, five gonadal phases are differentiated and described in males and females (development, mature, spawning, post-spawning and resting), with a noticeable presence of brown cells during post-spawning and the onset of the resting phase, suggesting that those cells are involved in the reabsorption of remnants. Additionally, asynchronous gametogenesis in males, synchronic gametogenesis in females and batch spawning are defined. The results of this contribution can be used in the efforts to protect this bivalve.

Abstract: Summary Background Awake prone positioning has been reported to improve oxygenation for patients with COVID-19 in retrospective and observational studies, but whether it improves patient-centred outcomes is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of awake prone positioning to prevent intubation or death in patients with severe COVID-19 in a large-scale randomised trial. Methods In this prospective, a priori set up and defined, collaborative meta-trial of six randomised controlled open-label superiority trials, adults who required respiratory support with high-flow nasal cannula for acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure due to COVID-19 were randomly assigned to awake prone positioning or standard care. Hospitals from six countries were involved: Canada, France, Ireland, Mexico, USA, Spain. Patients or their care providers were not masked to allocated treatment. The primary composite outcome was treatment failure, defined as the proportion of patients intubated or dying within 28 days of enrolment. The six trials are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT04325906 , NCT04347941 , NCT04358939 , NCT04395144 , NCT04391140 , and NCT04477655 . Findings Between April 2, 2020 and Jan 26, 2021, 1126 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to awake prone positioning (n=567) or standard care (n=559). 1121 patients (excluding five who withdrew from the study) were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. Treatment failure occurred in 223 (40%) of 564 patients assigned to awake prone positioning and in 257 (46%) of 557 patients assigned to standard care (relative risk 0·86 [95% CI 0·75−0·98]). The hazard ratio (HR) for intubation was 0·75 (0·62−0·91), and the HR for mortality was 0·87 (0·68−1·11) with awake prone positioning compared with standard care within 28 days of enrolment. The incidence of prespecified adverse events was low and similar in both groups. Interpretation Awake prone positioning of patients with hypoxaemic respiratory failure due to COVID-19 reduces the incidence of treatment failure and the need for intubation without any signal of harm. These results support routine awake prone positioning of patients with COVID-19 who require support with high-flow nasal cannula.

Abstract: El gasto público federal de fomento al sector agrícola en México a mediados del siglo pasado se caracterizó por una alta intervención pública en infraestructura de riego y modernización del campo mexicano. En contraste, a finales del siglo pasado, las transferencias públicas se destinaron principalmente al apoyo del ingreso de los productores agrícolas. Por ello, el presente trabajo evalúa la incidencia del gasto público agrícola federal de México y sus componentes de investigación y educación, en el crecimiento agrícola durante 1995-2010. El análisis del Ãndice de Orientación Agrícola reveló que el sector público dio mayor relevancia a las transferencias públicas de otros sectores que a la agricultura. Además, se observó una tendencia descendente en la participación del sector agrícola en la economía en conjunto. Se encontró que las transferencias públicas destinadas al fomento de la agricultura regresan al sector, incrementado seis veces más en un periodo de un año; en tanto que el gasto en educación y ciencia agrícola retornaron cien veces más, en un lapso de cuatro años. Se recomienda destinar mayores recursos a programas de fomento a la educación e investigación agrícola, fortaleciendo las cadenas productivas e impulsando la competitividad y el desarrollo agroalimentario.

Abstract: Background: Ventricular fibrillation (VF) waveform analyses are considered a reliable proxy for OHCA characteristics in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), but patient characteristics such as cardiovascular medication use might also be associated with changes in VF waveform measures. Objectives: To assess associations between cardiovascular medication use and amplitude spectrum area (AMSA) of VF, while correcting for the presence of cardiovascular disease (CVD), CVD risk factors, and OHCA characteristics. Methods: We included 990 VF patients from an OHCA registry in the Netherlands, with available information on medical history and cardiovascular medication use. Associations between cardiovascular medication use and AMSA were tested in a multivariate linear regression model, adjusting for CVD, CVD risk factors, and OHCA characteristics. Model performance was shown using R-square and R-change. We also calculated whether medication use was associated with faster dissolution of AMSA to lower values with increasing time delay. Results: In the multivariate analysis, when corrected for CVD, CVD risk factors and OHCA characteristics, only potassium-sparing agents were associated with a lower AMSA when compared to patients using other cardiovascular medications (OR 0.46 [95% CI 0.100.81]; P < 0.012). The decrease in AMSA with increasing EMS-call-to-ECG delay was the same for patients with and without cardiovascular medication use (all P > 0.05). Only a small part of the variance in AMSA could be explained by medication use (R-square 0.003 0.026). Adding OHCA characteristics to the model resulted in the largest R square change (0.090.15). Conclusions: It is unlikely that there is a strong and clinically relevant independent pharmacologic effect of cardiovascular medication use on AMSA. In OHCA, AMSA might be used as patient management tool without considering cardiovascular medication use.: It is unlikely that there is a strong and clinically relevant independent pharmacologic effect of cardiovascular medication use on AMSA. In OHCA, AMSA might be used as patient management tool without considering cardiovascular medication use.

Abstract: Hypertrophic scar is an important clinical problem with limited therapeutic options. Aside from their roles as 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors, statins have also been demonstrated to decrease scarring by reducing connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) expression. However, poor penetrative ability limits their utility as topical treatments for hypertrophic scar. Here, we aim to develop novel statin formulations using liposomes to enhance dermal penetrative ability and to evaluate their efficacy against formation of hypertrophic scar utilizing our validated rabbit ear hypertrophic scar model. Liposomal simvastatin or pravastatin were compounded using a novel, flexible liposomal formulation and applied topically to rabbit ear hypertrophic scars daily from postoperation day (POD) 14 until POD 25. Scar color, including erythema and melanin, was measured using reflectance spectrophotometry on POD 28, and scar tissue was harvested for evaluation of scar elevation index as well as gene and protein expression. Human foreskin fibroblasts were also treated with statin formulations and CCN2 expression was determined by quantitative PCR. Both simvastatin and pravastatin were efficiently encapsulated in liposomes, forming nanometer-scale particles possessing highly negative charges. Topical treatment with liposomal simvastatin and pravastatin at 6.5% concentration significantly reduced scar elevation index and decreased type I/III collagen content and myofibroblast persistence in the wound. The erythema/vascularity of scars was reduced by liposomal statin treatment, with concomitant decrease of CD31 expression as measured histologically. Expression levels of transcripts encoding CTGF, collagen I, and collagen III collagen in scar tissue were also decreased by liposomal pravastatin treatment, as were myofibroblast persistence and the type I/III collagen ratio as assessed by immunofluorescence and picrosirus red staining, respectively. Treatment of human foreskin fibroblasts with simvastatin or with liposome-encapsulated pravastatin resulted in decreased expression of transcript encoding CTGF. Overall, our novel statin formulations encapsulated in liposomes were successfully delivered through topical application, significantly reducing hypertrophic scarring in a rabbit ear model.

Abstract: Background Bystander CPR before the arrival of EMS is a major factor in out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survival. To recruit trained bystanders, mobile phone-based alert systems have been developed, but their limitations are not well understood. Objective We investigated the effects of landscape features on the capabilities of the PulsePoint CPR dispatch platform in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. We hypothesized that landscape features would reduce walkable area within dispatch zones and that larger alert radii could mitigate these effects. Methods CPR alert location data were obtained from the Allegheny County 911 PulsePoint deployment from July 2016–2019 (n = 1100). PulsePoint, a smartphone-based citizen CPR dispatch platform, alerts volunteers to public OHCAs within 400 m. Digital maps of alerts were generated for walkability analysis using the image Labeler MATLAB polygon tool. Unwalkable areas were labeled, classified into five categories, and quantified. Results Of the 1100 events analyzed, encompassing 212 mi2, 357 (32.45%) had no impediments to walkability. Within a 400 m radius of partially impeded events, the median proportion of obstructed area was 0.2250 (Min: 0.0005, Max: 0.8338, IQR: 0.3004, Sx: 0.1923). When the alert radius was expanded to 468 m, the median increased to 0.2336 (Min: 0.0016, Max: 0.8597, IQR: 0.3064, Sx: 0.1950). The percentages of total unwalkable area by each category were: terrain (54.286%), water (24.674%), road w/o crosswalk (11.3197%), railroad (7.4100%), private property (2.3102%). Conclusions In this region, most PulsePoint alerts had unwalkable areas, mostly from terrain and water. Contrary to our initial hypotheses, moderately increasing dispatch radius did not improve walkability.

Abstract: Objective: The two objectives of this report are: first, to describe a comparison of chest compressions unsynchronized or synchronized to native cardiac activity in a porcine model of hypotension, and second, to develop an algorithm to provide synchronized chest compressions throughout a range of native heart rates likely to be encountered when treating PEA cardiac arrest. Methods: We adapted our previously developed signal-guided CPR system to provide compressions synchronized to native electrical activity in a porcine model of hypotension as a surrogate of PEA arrest. We describe the first comparison of unsynchronized to synchronized compressions in a single animal as a proof-of-concept. We developed an algorithm to provide optimal synchronized chest compressions regardless of intrinsic PEA heart rate while simultaneously maintaining the chest compression rate within a desired range. We tested the algorithm with computer simulations measuring the proportion of intrinsic and compression beats that were synchronized, and the compression rate and its standard deviation, as a function of intrinsic heart rate and heart rate jitter. Results: We demonstrate and compare unsynchronized versus synchronized chest compressions in a single porcine model with an intrinsic rhythm and hypotension. Synchronized, but not unsynchronized, chest compressions were associated with increased blood pressure and coronary perfusion pressure. Our synchronized chest compression algorithm is able to provide synchronized chest compressions to over 90% of intrinsic beats for most heart rates while maintaining an average compression rate between 90 and 140 compressions per minute with relatively low variability. Conclusions: Synchronized chest compression therapy for pulseless electrical rhythms is feasible. A high degree of synchronization can be maintained over a broad range of intrinsic heart rates while maintaining the compression rate within a satisfactory range. Further investigation to assess benefit for treatment of PEA is warranted.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Guidelines for depth of chest compressions in pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are based on sparse evidence. OBJECTIVE: We sought to evaluate the performance of the two most widely recommended chest compression depth levels for pediatric CPR (1.5 inches and 1/3 the anterior-posterior diameter-APd) in a controlled swine model of asphyxial cardiac arrest. METHODS: We executed a 2-group, randomized laboratory study with an adaptive design allowing early termination for overwhelming injury or benefit. Forty mixed-breed domestic swine (mean weight = 26kg) were sedated, anesthetized and paralyzed along with endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. Asphyxial cardiac arrest was induced with fentanyl overdose. Animals were untreated for 9 minutes followed by mechanical CPR with a target depth of 1.5 inches or 1/3 the APd. Advanced life support drugs were administered IV after 4 minutes of basic resuscitation followed by defibrillation at 14 minutes. The primary outcomes were return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), hemodynamics and CPR-related injury severity. RESULTS: Enrollment in the 1/3 APd group was stopped early due to overwhelming differences in injury. Twenty-three animals were assigned to the 1.5 inch group and 15 assigned to the 1/3 APd group, per an adaptive group design. The 1/3 APd group had increased frequency of rib fracture (6.7 vs 1.7, p

Abstract: We assessed the association between Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infection of the central nervous system and suicide correlates in suicide decedents. Eighty-seven decedents who died by suicide received in a forensic setting for medico-legal autopsies in Mexico City were studied. Two samples of brain (amygdala and prefrontal cortex) from each decedent were examined for detection of T. gondii using immunohistochemistry. Correlates of suicide including a history of previous suicide attempts, co-morbid mental disorder, consumption of alcohol or tobacco, irritability and aggression, economic problems, presence of drugs or alcohol in blood and suicide method were obtained and analyzed for their association with T. gondii infection. T. gondii immunohistochemistry was positive in prefrontal cortex sections in 6 decedents and in an amygdala section in one decedent. Thus, the prevalence of T. gondii infection in brain in suicide victims was 8.0% (7/87). Bivariate and logistic regression analysis of suicide correlates showed that only a history of depression was associated with T. gondii infection of the brain in suicide victims (OR: 12.00, 95% CI: 2.26–63.46, p = 0.003). Our results provide evidence that T. gondii infection in brain is associated with a history of depression in suicide decedents.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: Airway pressure release ventilation is a ventilatory mode characterized by a mandatory inverse inspiratory:expiratory ratio with a very short expiratory phase, aimed to avoid derecruitment and allow spontaneous breathing. Recent basic and clinical evidence suggests that this mode could be associated with improved outcomes in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes between airway pressure release ventilation and traditional ventilation targeting low tidal volume, in patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019. DESIGN: Single-center randomized controlled trial. SETTING: ICU of a Mexican referral center dedicated to care of patients with confirmed diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019. PATIENTS: Ninety adult intubated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome associated with severe coronavirus disease 2019. INTERVENTIONS: Within 48 hours after intubation, patients were randomized to either receive ventilatory management with airway pressure release ventilation or continue low tidal volume ventilation. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Forty-five patients in airway pressure release ventilation group and 45 in the low tidal volume group were included. Ventilator-free days were 3.7 (0-15) and 5.2 (0-19) in the airway pressure release ventilation and low tidal volume groups, respectively (p = 0.28). During the first 7 days, patients in airway pressure release ventilation had a higher PaO2/FIO2 (mean difference, 26 [95%CI, 13-38]; p < 0.001) and static compliance (mean difference, 3.7 mL/cm H2O [95% CI, 0.2-7.2]; p = 0.03), higher mean airway pressure (mean difference, 3.1 cm H2O [95% CI, 2.1-4.1]; p < 0.001), and higher tidal volume (mean difference, 0.76 mL/kg/predicted body weight [95% CI, 0.5-1.0]; p < 0.001). More patients in airway pressure release ventilation had transient severe hypercapnia, defined as an elevation of PCO2 at greater than or equal to 55 along with a pH less than 7.15 (42% vs 15%; p = 0.009); other outcomes were similar. Overall mortality was 69%, with no difference between the groups (78% in airway pressure release ventilation vs 60% in low tidal volume; p = 0.07). CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, when compared with low tidal volume, airway pressure release ventilation was not associated with more ventilator-free days or improvement in other relevant outcomes in patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019.

Abstract: Durango state has ideal territorial, climatic and hydrological conditions to increase aquaculture development; however, in recent years the production of this activity has decreased and descended to the last places at the national level. One of the alternatives for a sustainable aquaculture development in the state is the application of Biofloc Technology (BFT) in production units of tilapia. The aim of this study was to determine the land suitability of the state for tilapia production with BFT, as well as to analyze the aptitude in marginalized municipalities of the state according to the Human Development Index (HDI). A Multi-criteria evaluation was carried out by means of weighted sum with the support of a group of experts. An aptitude map for the activity was generated through Geographic Information System. Five categories of aptitude were established: Very Low, Low, Medium, High and Very High. An area with High and Very High aptitude of 50 182 km2 was estimated to develop the activity in the state. The regions with the highest aptitude were found in the central east and north of the state, mainly in the semi-arid zone. 39.67 % of the High and Very High aptitude estimated for the activity was concentrated in the municipalities with a Medium or Low HDI, which represents an opportunity to increase food security in these municipalities. The results of this study will allow increasing the certainty in the implementation of aquaculture projects in the state with a focus on optimal use of resources.

Abstract: Digital, Background Guidelines recommend nonstatin lipid-lowering agents in patients at very high risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) if low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) remains ≥70 mg/dL on maximum tolerated statin treatment. It is uncertain if this approach benefits patients with LDL-C near 70 mg/dL. Lipoprotein(a) levels may influence residual risk. Objectives In a post hoc analysis of the ODYSSEY Outcomes (Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcomes After an Acute Coronary Syndrome During Treatment With Alirocumab) trial, the authors evaluated the benefit of adding the proprotein subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor alirocumab to optimized statin treatment in patients with LDL-C levels near 70 mg/dL. Effects were evaluated according to concurrent lipoprotein(a) levels. Methods ODYSSEY Outcomes compared alirocumab with placebo in 18,924 patients with recent acute coronary syndromes receiving optimized statin treatment. In 4,351 patients (23.0%), screening or randomization LDL-C was 13.7 mg/dL or ≤13.7 mg/dL; corresponding adjusted treatment hazard ratios were 0.82 (95% CI: 0.72-0.92) and 0.89 (95% CI: 0.75-1.06), with Pinteraction = 0.43. Conclusions In patients with recent acute coronary syndromes and LDL-C near 70 mg/dL on optimized statin therapy, proprotein subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibition provides incremental clinical benefit only when lipoprotein(a) concentration is at least mildly elevated.

Abstract: Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text., IMPORTANCE: Even with its proclivity for older age, coronavirus disease 2019 has been shown to affect all age groups. However, there remains a lack of research focused primarily on the young adult population. OBJECTIVES: To describe the epidemiology and outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 and identify the risk factors associated with critical illness and mortality in hospitalized young adults. DESIGN, SETTINGS, AND PARTICIPANTS: A retrospective cohort study of the Society of Critical Care Medicine’s Viral Infection and Respiratory Illness Universal Study registry. Patients 18–40 years old, hospitalized from coronavirus disease 2019 from March 2020 to April 2021, were included in the analysis. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Critical illness was defined as a composite of mortality and 21 predefined interventions and complications. Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess associations with critical illness and mortality. RESULTS: Data from 4,005 patients (152 centers, 19 countries, 18.6% non-U.S. patients) were analyzed. The median age was 32 years (interquartile range, 27–37 yr); 51% were female, 29.4% Hispanic, and 42.9% had obesity. Most patients (63.2%) had comorbidities, the most common being hypertension (14.5%) and diabetes (13.7%). Hospital and ICU mortality were 3.2% (129/4,005) and 8.3% (109/1,313), respectively. Critical illness occurred in 25% (n = 996), and 34.3% (n = 1,376) were admitted to the ICU. Older age (p = 0.03), male sex (adjusted odds ratio, 1.83 [95% CI, 1.2–2.6]), and obesity (adjusted odds ratio, 1.6 [95% CI, 1.1–2.4]) were associated with hospital mortality. In addition to the above factors, the presence of any comorbidity was associated with critical illness from coronavirus disease 2019. Multiple sensitivity analyses, including analysis with U.S. patients only and patients admitted to high-volume sites, showed similar risk factors. CONCLUSIONS: Among hospitalized young adults, obese males with comorbidities are at higher risk of developing critical illness or dying from coronavirus disease 2019.

Abstract: Background Mobile phone-based dispatch of volunteers to out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) has been shown to increase the likelihood of early CPR and AED application. In the United States, limited characterization of patients encountered as a result of such systems exists. Aims Examine prehospital case characteristics and outcomes from a multi-year deployment of PulsePoint Respond in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Methods PulsePoint event timing, location, and associated prehospital electronic health records (ePCRs) were obtained for EMS-encountered OHCA cases that did and did not generate PulsePoint alerts within the service area of Pittsburgh EMS from July 2016 to October 2020. ePCRs were reviewed and OHCA case characteristics were extracted according to the Utstein template. PulsePoint-associated OHCA and non-PulsePoint-associated OHCA were compared. Results Of 840 total PulsePoint dispatches, 64(7.6%) were for OHCA for which resuscitation was attempted. Forty-one (64.1%) were witnessed, 38(59.4%) received bystander CPR, and 13(20.0%) of these patients had an AED applied prior to EMS arrival. Twenty-seven (39.7%) had an initial shockable rhythm, and 31(48.4%) patients achieved ROSC in the field. In the city of Pittsburgh, there were 1229 total OHCA during the study period, with an estimated 29.6% occurring in public. When PulsePoint-associated and publicly occurring non-PulsePoint-associated OHCA were compared, baseline characteristics (age, sex, witnessed status) were similar, but PulsePoint-associated OHCA received more bystander CPR(p=0.008). Conclusions A minority of PulsePoint dispatches in Pittsburgh were triggered by true OHCA. The majority of OHCA during the study period occurred within private residences where PulsePoint responders are not currently dispatched. PulsePoint dispatches were associated with prognostically favorable OHCA characteristics and increased bystander CPR performance.

Abstract: Introduction Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the US. Of major concern is a lack of therapies to mitigate associated brain injury. Immune cell infiltration (ICI) into the brain, which may exacerbate injury post-resuscitation, is one possible therapeutic target, although the post-OHCA immune response has not been fully characterized. Objective In this pilot study, we aimed to detect early post-resuscitation cytotoxic lymphocyte ICI in porcine brain using a model of opioid-mediated asphyxial OHCA. Methods Ten young, healthy swine (26.7+/-3.4 kg) were sedated, anaesthetized and paralyzed. In eight of the animals, this was followed by induction of asphyxial OHCA via fentanyl bolus and concurrent airway occlusion. The remaining two ‘sham’ animals were instrumented but did not undergo asphyxia. After nine minutes of asphyxia, mechanical CPR and manual ventilations were started, in an initial BLS followed by ALS configuration. At termination of resuscitation or euthanasia, the whole brain was removed. Immune cells were extracted and analyzed via flow cytometry. Results 304 +/− 62.2 cells/g were discovered to be CD8 single positive cells in animals that achieved ROSC, 481 +/− 274.4 cells/g in animals that did not achieve ROSC, and 40 +/− 11.31 cells/g in sham animals. CD8 single positive cells made up 0.473 +/− 0.24% of detected cells in animals that achieved ROSC, 0.395 +/− 0.062% in animals that did not achieve ROSC, and 0.19 +/− 0.014% in sham animals (No ROSC vs Sham, p = 0.012). Conclusions These data suggest that cytotoxic lymphocytes may be localizing to the brain during cardiac arrest resuscitation.

Abstract: Introduction Acanthosis nigricans (AN) is an early clinical sign of insulin resistance (IR) primarily in adults. The prevalence and association of AN and IR in infants, however, remains uncertain. We aimed to describe the prevalence of AN and its association with IR in a group of Latin-American infants. Methods We studied a random sample of 227 healthy infants between 9 and 24 months of age. After a complete clinical history was obtained and a physical examination was performed, fasting plasma glucose and serum insulin were measured. Three blinded evaluators assessed AN in each patient. Infants with AN were categorized as cases. The HOMA-IR index cutoffs of ≥ 90th and ≥ 95th percentiles were considered IR. Results There were 49 infants with AN (21.6%) (cases) and 178 without AN (78.4%) (controls). Cases had a significantly higher mean serum insulin, fasting plasma glucose, and HOMA-IR levels of 3.67 ± 2.56 µU/ml vs. 2.42 ± 1.45 µU/ml, P = 0.005; 84.2 ± 12.6 mg/dL vs. 77 ± SD 9.9 mg/dL, P ≤ 0.001; HOMA-IR 0.77 ± 0.54 vs. 0.46 ± 0.28, P ≤ 0.001, respectively. More cases than controls presented HOMA-IR levels ≥ 95th percentile (cases 18.4%; controls 0.5%, P ≤ 0.001) and ≥ 90th percentile (cases 32.7%; controls 1.6%, P ≤ 0.001). AN in the knuckles had a high sensitivity and a negative predictive value (NPV) for detecting patients with HOMA-IR levels above the 95th percentile (sensitivity 90%; NPV 99.4%) and above the 90th percentile (sensitivity 84.2%; NPV 98.3%). Conclusion AN in the knuckles is a prevalent, non-invasive, costless, and reliable screening clinical tool that can be used for early detection of infants with IR and a high metabolic risk.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Public access defibrillation (PAD) programs seek to optimize locations of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to minimize the time from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) recognition to defibrillation. Most PAD programs have focused on static AED (S-AED) locations in high traffic areas; pervasive electronic data infrastructure incorporating real-time geospatial data opens the possibility for AED deployment on mobile infrastructure for retrieval by nearby non-passengers. Performance characteristics of such systems are not known. HYPOTHESIS: We hypothesized that publicly accessible AEDs located on buses would increase publicly accessible AED coverage and reduce AED retrieval time relative to statically located AEDs. METHODS: S-AED sites in Pittsburgh, PA were identified and consolidated to 1 AED per building for analysis (n=582). Public bus routes and schedules were obtained from the Port Authority of Allegheny County. OHCA locations and times were obtained from the Pittsburgh site of the Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium. Two simulations were conducted to assess the characteristics and impact of AEDs located on buses. In Simulation #1, geographic coverage area of AEDs located on buses (B-AEDs) was estimated using a 1/8th mile (201m) retrieval radius during weekday, Saturday and Sunday periods. Cumulative geographic coverage across each period of the week was compared to S-AED coverage and the added coverage provided by B-AEDs was calculated. In Simulation #2, spatiotemporal event coverage was estimated for historical OHCA events, assuming constraints designed to reflect real world AED retrieval scenarios. Event coverage and AED retrieval time were compared between B-AEDs and S-AEDs across periods of the week and residential / non-residential spatial areas. RESULTS: Cumulative geographic coverage by S-AEDs was 23% across all periods, assuming uniform access hours. B-AEDs alone versus B-AEDs + S-AEDs covered 20% vs. 34% (weekday), 14% + 30% (Saturday), and 10% + 28% (Sunday). There was no statistically significant difference in 3-minute historical AED accessibility between only B-AEDs and only S-AEDs in standalone deployments (12% vs. 14%). However, when allowing for retrieval of either type of AED in the same scenario, event coverage was improved to 22% (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Deployment of B-AEDs may improve AED coverage but not as a standalone deployment strategy.

Abstract: Background: The early use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) can save lives by correcting lethal ventricular arrhythmias with minimal operator intervention. AED shock advisements also play a role in termination of resuscitation strategies. AED function is dependent on the accuracy of their shock advisement algorithms, which may differ between manufacturers. We sought to compare the shock advisement performance characteristics of several AEDs. Methods: We conducted a prospective, laboratory-based simulation study evaluating five commercially available AEDs from Cardiac Science, Defibtech, Medtronic, Philips, and Zoll. Shock advisement performance was evaluated for eight ECG rhythms {ventricular fibrillation (VF), ventricular tachycardia (VT), toursades de pointes (TdP), sinus rhythm (SR), atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial flutter (AFL), idioventricular rhythm (IDV), and asystole} that were generated using the SimMan Classic Manikin and the LLEAP Simulator software (Laerdal Medical Inc., Norway). We recorded shock advisement decisions for each of the ECG rhythms three times per device. Shock advisements were coded as discordant if a shock was advised for a non-shockable rhythm or not advised for a shockable rhythm. Results: We analyzed 330 rhythm trials in total (66 per device), finding 28 (8.5%) discordant shock advisements overall. Discordance ranged from 6% to 11% among the five AED models. VF rhythm variants were the most frequent (43%) source of discordant advisements. No shocks were advised for any of the sinus rhythms, AFL, AF with QRS > 40, IDV, or asystole. Conclusions: Discordant shock advisements were observed for each AED and varied between manufacturers, most often involving VF. There may be implications for termination of resuscitation decision making.

Abstract: Background: To determine the association of infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) and the occupation of female sex worker; and the correlation of infection with HPV with sociodemographic, clinical and behavioral characteristics of female sex workers. Methods: We performed a case-control study of 217 female sex workers and 354 women without sex work in Durango City, Mexico. We determined the prevalence of infection with HPV in cervical samples of women using polymerase chain reaction, and HPV genotypes were determined using line probe assay. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were used to assess the association between the characteristics of women and infection. Results: Twelve (5.5%) of the 217 sex workers, and 10 (2.8%) of the 354 control women were positive for HPV DNA (age-adjusted OR = 1.51; 95% CI: 0.62 - 3.68; P = 0.36). Six (50.0%) of the 12 HPV DNA positive sex workers had infections with high-risk genotypes (16, 31, 33, 35, 51, 58). Seven (70%) of the 10 HPV DNA positive control women had infections with high-risk genotypes (16, 18, 56, 58, and 66). The frequency of high risk genotypes in the control women was equal with that found in the female sex workers (P = 0.41). Logistic regression analysis showed that the variable alcohol consumption was associated with HPV infection (OR = 4.0; 95% CI: 1.0 - 16.0; P = 0.04). Conclusions: No association between HPV infection and female sex work was found in our setting. High risk HPV genotypes were prevalent among the women studied. Results can be used for the design of preventive measures against HPV infection. J Clin Med Res. 2019;11(3):196-201 doi: https://doi.org/10.14740/jocmr3739

Abstract: Introduction Hemodynamic-guided cardiopulmonary resuscitation (HGCPR) achieves better outcomes than standard resuscitation. Currently, HGCPR requires an invasive procedure, infeasible during resuscitation. Non-invasive measures of blood flow could provide useful hemodynamic guidance to rescuers. Objective We describe initial efforts to develop a device that detects, analyzes, and measures the velocity of carotid artery blood flow (CABF) towards the brain at pre-arrest baseline (‘baseline’) and during cardiopulmonary resuscitation, here tested in a swine model of cardiac arrest (CA). A key element of that device consists of non-imaging diagnostic ultrasound, due to its simplicity and small form factor, hence potential for deployment during HGCPR in a bandage placed on the neck. Methods Sixteen mixed-breed domestic swine were sedated, anesthetized and paralyzed, followed by endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. Cardiac arrest was induced with a 3-s 100 mA transthoracic shock or bolus of fentanyl, after which all animals received mechanical CPR. A non-imaging ultrasound probe was manually applied to the neck over the carotid artery to capture CABF during baseline, as verified with diagnostic ultrasound imaging, and during mechanical resuscitation. Results We successfully collected CABF measurements at baseline in 14/16 swine and during attempted resuscitation with mechanical chest compression in 5/16 swine. Signal characteristics include peak blood flow both towards (90.4 +/−20.4 cm/s) and away from the brain (−44.2 +/−31.8 cm/s) during resuscitation, each larger than flow towards (41.7+/−14.8 cm/s) and away from brain (−3.0 +/−7.8 cm/s) during baseline. Conclusion Measurement of CABF before and during CPR in swine with a non-imaging ultrasound probe is feasible before CA and informative when achieved during CPR. For example, observations of reverse flow within the carotid artery during CPR merits further study for its prevalence and effect on resuscitation outcomes. Also, tissue motion represents a significant obstacle for CABF measurement during CPR. Additional work will determine the feasibility and utility of non-imaging ultrasound measurements of CABF during resuscitation.

Abstract: Background The rapid increase of industry-sponsored clinical research towards developing countries has led to potentially complex ethical issues to assess. There is scarce evidence about the perception of these participants about the ethical compliance, security, and protection. We sought to evaluate and contrast the awareness and perception of participants and non-participants of industry-sponsored research trials (ISRT) on ethical, safety, and protection topics. Methods A Cases-control survey conducted at twelve research sites in México. Previous and current participants of ISRT (cases) as well as non-participants (controls) with one of four chronic diseases, were asked to complete the survey which focused on ethical compliance and protection issues of ISRT, and the perception of participating in a trial. Results A total of 604 cases and 604 controls were surveyed. Cases significantly answered that ethics committees are aware of what is happening in studies (50.5% vs. 33.8%, P = ≤ 0.001), and that medical care of industry-sponsored research trials is better than their usual medical care (77.2% vs. 38.2%, P =

Abstract: In this chapter, we used cimetidine (C) and cimetidine with malathion (M + C) to assess oxidative stress enzymes suggestive of liver damage in rats exposed to malathion (M) in a subchronic form. Cimetidine is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist that has been demonstrated to inhibit many CYP450 isoforms. Malathion, a commonly used organophosphorus insecticide, causes oxidative liver harm. We studied male Wistar rats weighing 200-250 g, exposed to malathion orally for 3 weeks (0.15 mg / kg /day, 2 mg / kg /day, 15 mg / kg /day) and cimetidine 10 mg / kg /day. Malathion affects susceptibility to oxidative stress and possibly modifies the antioxidant defense capacity directly or indirectly. This study will provide alternate clinical diagnoses and therapies for pesticide-induced liver illness, as well as focusing future investigations on oxidative stress in organophosphate-exposed patients and creating intervention techniques.

Abstract: Objective To determine the seroprevalence of Leptospira immunoglobulin (Ig)G and IgM antibodies and its association with the characteristics of the study population from the northern Mexican city of Durango, Mexico. Methods Through a cross-sectional study design, inhabitants of Durango City, Mexico were surveyed between June 2018 and November 2018. Serum samples from the subjects were analysed for anti- Leptospira IgG and IgM antibodies using commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Sociodemographic, clinical, behavioural and housing characteristics were recorded. Data were analysed by bivariate and multivariate analyses. Results The study enrolled 413 people, of which 124 (30.0%) and 137 (33.2%) were positive for anti- Leptospira IgG antibodies and anti- Leptospira IgM antibodies, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that Leptospira seropositivity was associated with professional occupation, alcohol consumption, ill clinical status, memory impairment and a history of surgery. Conclusions This is the first study to report the seroepidemiology of Leptospira infection in an urban general population in the north of Mexico. The seroprevalence of Leptospira infection found was higher than those previously reported in Mexican studies.

Abstract: Background There is an emerging body of evidence that links exposure to shift work to cardiovascular disease (CVD). The risk of coronary events, such as myocardial infarction, is greater among night shift workers compared to day workers. There is reason to believe that repeated exposure to shift work, especially night shift work, creates alterations in normal circadian patterns of blood pressure (BP) and heart rate variability (HRV) and that these alterations contribute to increased risk of CVD. Recent data suggest that allowing shift workers to nap during night shifts may help to normalize BP and HRV patterns and, over time, reduce the risk of CVD. The risk of CVD related to shift work is elevated for emergency medical services (EMS) shift workers due in part to long-duration shifts, frequent use of night shifts, and a high prevalence of multiple jobs. Methods We will use a randomized crossover trial study design with three study conditions. The targeted population is comprised of EMS clinician shift workers, and our goal enrollment is 35 total participants with an estimated 10 of the 35 enrolled not completing the study protocol or classified as lost to attrition. All three conditions will involve continuous monitoring over 72 h and will begin with a 36-h at-home period, followed by 24 total hours in the lab (including a 12-h simulated night shift), ending with 12 h at home. The key difference between the three conditions is the intra-shift nap. Condition 1 will involve a simulated 12-h night shift with total sleep deprivation. Condition 2 will involve a simulated 12-h night shift and a 30-min nap opportunity. Condition 3 will involve a simulated 12-h night shift with a 2-h nap opportunity. Our primary outcomes of interest include blunted BP dipping and reduced HRV as measured by the standard deviation of the inter-beat intervals of normal sinus beats. Non-dipping status will be defined as sleep hours BP dip of less than 10%. Discussion Our study will address two indicators of cardiovascular health and determine if shorter or longer duration naps during night shifts have a clinically meaningful impact.

Abstract: Objective The COVID-19 pandemic presents challenges to maintaining interdisciplinary collaboration while transitioning care to telehealth environments. This paper describes how an intensive weight management clinic rapidly transitioned from in-person only to a telehealth environment. Method As a program evaluation project, changes to clinic procedures were tracked on a weekly basis. Patients were invited to complete phone surveys after clinic appointments from May 1, 2020-July 31, 2020. The survey included 12 items rated on a 5-point scale (?strongly disagree? to ?strongly agree?). Results Adaptations included converting team meetings and clinical training to phone/video platforms and transferring a complex patient tracking system to an interactive virtual format. Fifty-eight patients completed phone surveys (81% response rate). All ?agreed? or ?strongly agreed? that they were satisfied with telehealth care;51% ?agreed? or ?strongly agreed? that telephone visits were as good as in-person visits;and 53% preferred phone appointments even after pandemic restrictions are eased. Conclusions It is feasible to rapidly transition to a telehealth clinic when supported by infrastructure and resources of a national, integrated healthcare system. Patient preferences include access to both telehealth and in-person services. A blended telehealth/in-person model that maintains interdisciplinary collaboration and training is necessary even after the COVID-19 pandemic. This article is protected by copyright.

Abstract: BackgroundIt remains unknown how the COVID-19 pandemic has changed neuro-oncology clinical practice, training, and research efforts.MethodsWe performed an international survey of practitioners, scientists, and trainees from 21 neuro-oncology organizations across 6 continents, April 24–May 17, 2020. We assessed clinical practice and research environments, institutional preparedness and support, and perceived impact on patients.ResultsOf 582 respondents, 258 (45%) were US-based and 314 (55%) international. Ninety-four percent of participants reported changes in their clinical practice. Ninety-five percent of respondents converted at least some practice to telemedicine. Ten percent of practitioners felt the need to see patients in person, specifically because of billing concerns and pressure from their institutions. Sixty-seven percent of practitioners suspended enrollment for at least one clinical trial, including 62% suspending phase III trial enrollments. More than 50% believed neuro-oncology patients were at increased risk for COVID-19. Seventy-one percent of clinicians feared for their own personal safety or that of their families, specifically because of their clinical duties; 20% had inadequate personal protective equipment. While 69% reported increased stress, 44% received no psychosocial support from their institutions. Thirty-seven percent had salary reductions and 63% of researchers temporarily closed their laboratories. However, the pandemic created positive changes in perceived patient satisfaction, communication quality, and technology use to deliver care and mediate interactions with other practitioners.ConclusionsThe pandemic has changed treatment schedules and limited investigational treatment options. Institutional lack of support created clinician and researcher anxiety. Communication with patients was satisfactory. We make recommendations to guide clinical and scientific infrastructure moving forward and address the personal challenges of providers and researchers.

41. Fraud in wine and other alcoholic beverages

Author: Shauna Salcido-Keamo and Samantha Lin
Subjects: Wine, food and beverages, Business, Food science, Sweetness, Multiple methods, health care economics and organizations, humanities
Abstract: Wine and other alcoholic beverages are susceptible to fraud and adulteration due to their complex nature, high values, and extensive global supply chains. Fraud can take place at several points in the production process as well as throughout the supply chain. In addition to wine, other alcoholic beverages that are susceptible to fraud include vodka, rum, and whiskey. There are several methods of fraud that are commonly committed with alcoholic beverages, including dilution with water, addition of ingredients, and mislabeling. For example, diethylene glycol has been illegally added to wine to improve sweetness, but this compound is harmful to consumers’ health. There are multiple methods available for the detection of fraud in alcoholic beverages, including stable isotope analysis, chromatography, and nuclear magnetic resonance. This chapter provides an overview of fraud associated with wine and other alcoholic beverages, including case studies, detection methods, and future trends.

Abstract: Peter Safar, together with others, established the basic treatment of cardiac arrest in the 1950s and 1960s by introducing the Airway, Breathing and Circulation sequence, which became the Basic Life Support algorithm. This was later transformed into Advanced Life Support by adding drugs and early defibrillation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). [...]

Abstract: Gluten-related disorders (GRDs) are increasing around the world, but their magnitude and relevance remain unknown in most Latin American countries. Thus, an online survey was conducted to estimate the prevalence of GRDs as well as adherence to a gluten-free diet (GFD) in Paraguayan adult population. There were 1058 individuals surveyed using a validated questionnaire (response rate of 93.9%). The self-reported prevalence rates were as follows (95% CI): gluten sensitivity (GS), 10.30% (8.53–12.29); non-celiac GS (NCGS), 5.19% (3.94–6.71); physician-diagnosed celiac disease (PD-CD), 3.11% (2.15–4.35); wheat allergy (WA), 2.07% (1.30–3.13); and adherence to GFD, 15.69% (13.55–18.02). Excluding CD, more women than men met the criteria for GRDs, adverse food reactions, and GFD (p < 0.05). Eight respondents reported the coexistence of NCGS with PD-CD and/or WA. Most cases on a GFD indicated medical/dietitian advice for following the diet (68.07%). Non-self-reported GS individuals indicated weight control (46.4%) and the notion that the GFD is healthier (20.2%) as the main motivations for following the diet. GRDs are not uncommon in Paraguayan adult population. It seems that there is awareness about GRDs and the GFD, but training about the diagnosis of GRDs is desirable because of the informed overlapping diagnoses of CD or WA with NCGS. Future studies involving face-to-face interviews are necessary.

Abstract: We present the design and testing of FOURIER, the first generation science beam combiner for the MROI. FOURIER is a three-way, J, H and K band image plane combiner which is designed primarily for observations at faint limiting magnitudes. We outline the main science requirements and discuss how the design of FOURIER contributes to meeting these requirements. We present the first laboratory characterisation of the instrument including validation of the PSF profile, demonstration of high contrast fringes, and the spectral resolution of the instrument, all of which show promising results. We conclude by discussing the path to deployment of FOURIER at the MROI ahead of the first science observation at the array.

A reduction in mean LDL cholesterol to 1.4-1.8 mmol/L with ezetimibe or statins reduces cardiovascular events in patients with an acute coronary syndrome and diabetes. However, the efficacy and safety of further reduction in LDL cholesterol with an inhibitor of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) after acute coronary syndrome is unknown. We aimed to explore this issue in a prespecified analysis of the ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial of the PCSK9 inhibitor alirocumab, assessing its effects on cardiovascular outcomes by baseline glycaemic status, while also assessing its effects on glycaemic measures including risk of new-onset diabetes. Methods ODYSSEY OUTCOMES was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, done at 1315 sites in 57 countries, that compared alirocumab with placebo in patients who had been admitted to hospital with an acute coronary syndrome (myocardial infarction or unstable angina) 1-12 months before randomisation and who had raised concentrations of atherogenic lipoproteins despite use of high-intensity statins. Patients were randomly assigned (1: 1) to receive alirocumab or placebo every 2 weeks; randomisation was stratified by country and was done centrally with an interactive voice-response or web-response system. Alirocumab was titrated to target LDL cholesterol concentrations of 0.65-1.30 mmol/L. in this prespecified analysis, we investigated the effect of alirocumab on cardiovascular events by glycaemic status at baseline (diabetes, prediabetes, or normoglycaemia)-defined on the basis of patient history, review of medical records, or baseline HbA(1c) or fasting serum glucose-and risk of new-onset diabetes among those without diabetes at baseline. the primary endpoint was a composite of death from coronary heart disease, non-fatal myocardial infarction, fatal or non-fatal ischaemic stroke, or unstable angina requiring hospital admission. ODYSSEY OUTCOMES is registered with ClinicalTrials. gov, number NCT01663402. Findings At study baseline, 5444 patients (28.8%) had diabetes, 8246 (43.6%) had prediabetes, and 5234 (27.7%) had normoglycaemia. There were no significant differences across glycaemic categories in median LDL cholesterol at baseline (2.20-2.28 mmol/L), after 4 months' treatment with alirocumab (0.80 mmol/L), or after 4 months' treatment with placebo (2.25-2.28 mmol/L). in the placebo group, the incidence of the primary endpoint over a median of 2.8 years was greater in patients with diabetes (16.4%) than in those with prediabetes (9.2%) or normoglycaemia (8.5%); hazard ratio (HR) for diabetes versus normoglycaemia 2.09 (95% CI 1.78-2.46, p, Sanofi; Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Sanofi and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals.

Abstract: Objectives To assess the effect of prone positioning therapy on intubation rate in awake patients with COVID-19 and acute respiratory failure. Trial design This is a two-center parallel group, superiority, randomized (1:1 allocation ratio) controlled trial. Participants All patients admitted to the Hospital Civil de Guadalajara and Hospital General de Occidente in Mexico for COVID-19 associated acute respiratory failure and in need of supplementary oxygen through high-flow nasal cannula are screened for eligibility. Inclusion criteria: all adult patients admitted to the COVID-19 unit who test positive for COVID-19 by PCR-test and in need for oxygen are eligible for inclusion. Randomization starts upon identification of requirement of a fraction of inspired oxygen ≥30% for an oxygen capillary saturation of ≥90% Exclusion criteria: less than 18 years-old, pregnancy, patients with immediate need of invasive mechanical ventilation (altered mental status, fatigue), vasopressor requirement to maintain median arterial pressure >65 mmHg, contraindications for prone positioning therapy (recent abdominal or thoracic surgery or trauma, facial, pelvic or spine fracture, untreated pneumothorax, do-not-resuscitate or do-not-intubate order, refusal or inability of the patient to enroll in the study. Intervention and comparator Patients of the intervention group will be asked to remain in a prone position throughout the day as long as possible, with breaks according to tolerance. Pillows will be offered for maximizing comfort at chest, pelvis and knees. Monitoring of vital signs will not be suspended. Inspired fraction of oxygen will be titrated to maintain a capillary saturation of 92%-95%. For patients in the control group, prone positioning will be allowed as a rescue therapy. Staff intensivists will monitor the patient’s status in both groups on a 24/7 basis. All other treatment will be unchanged and left to the attending physicians. Main outcomes Endotracheal intubation rate for mechanical ventilation at 28 days. Randomisation Patients will be randomly allocated to either prone positioning or control group at 1:1 ratio. Such randomization will be computer generated and stratified by center with permuted blocks and length of 4. Blinding (masking) Due to logistical reasons, only principal investigators and the data analyst will be blinded to group assignment. Numbers to be randomised (sample size) With an intubation rate of 60% according to recent reports from some American centers, and assuming a decrease to 40% to be clinically relevant, we calculated a total of 96 patients per group, for a beta error of 0.2, and alpha of 0.5. Therefore, we plan to recruit 200 patients, accounting for minimal losses to follow up, with 100 non-intubated patients in the prone position group and a 100 in the control group.

Abstract: Introduction: The characteristics and limitations of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurement of regional cerebral saturation (rSO2) for reflecting key moment-to-moment physiological changes needed to guide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) have yet to be fully determined. Objective: Examine the impact of NIRS sensor placement and resuscitation process variation on rSO2 measurements during prolonged cardiac arrest. Methods: Thirty mixed-breed domestic pigs (mean weight: 25.0kg+/-2.0) were sedated (ketamine / xylazine), anesthetized (fentanyl), paralyzed (vecuronium) and mechanically ventilated. Micromanometer pressure transducers were placed in the aorta and right atrium via femoral cutdown to measure central pressures, including mean arterial pressure (MAP) and coronary perfusion pressure (CPP). Two NIRS sensors were placed on the cranium: one on the skin surface and one on the bare skull. Ventricular fibrillation was induced electrically and untreated for 8 minutes followed by CPR. Initial BLS phase: 4 minutes of CPR at 100 compressions per minute (CPM) and 2 inches depth with manual ventilations (30:2). Randomized ALS phase: CPR with a pressor-titrated (Group A) or a compression rate/depth-titrated (Group B) strategy targeting 25mmHg CPP. Group A animals received pressor doses q1min and fixed rate/depth CPR. Group B animals received increasing rates and depth of CPR with epinephrine q3min. Defibrillation was attempted at 6min CPR q2min. rSO2 was compared between skin and skull across phases of resuscitation with t-tests and generalized estimating equations (GEE). Results: Mean skin and skull rSO2 differed marginally overall (63.8 vs 62.0, p < 0.001), at baseline (69.9 vs 64.9, p < 0.001), during BLS CPR (56.9 vs 48.7, p < 0.001), during ALS CPR (59.5 vs 51.0, p < 0.001), and following ROSC (70.0 vs 60.5, p Conclusion: rSO2 measures differ between skin and skull though both correlate with MAP.

Abstract: IntroductionObservational studies constitute an important evidence base for hypoglycemia in diabetes management. This requires consistent and reliable ascertainment and reporting methodology, particularly in studies of type 2 diabetes where hypoglycemia risk is heterogeneous. Therefore, we aimed to examine the definitions of hypoglycemia used by observational studies of patients with type 2 diabetes.Research design and methodsWe conducted a meta-epidemiological review of observational studies reporting on hypoglycemia or evaluating glucose-lowering medications in adults with type 2 diabetes. MEDLINE and Google Scholar were searched from January 1970 to May 2018. The definitions of non-severe, severe and nocturnal hypoglycemia were examined.ResultsWe reviewed 243 studies: 47.7% reported on non-severe hypoglycemia, 77.8% on severe hypoglycemia and 16.9% on nocturnal hypoglycemia; 5.8% did not specify. Among 116 studies reporting non-severe hypoglycemia, 18.1% provided no definition, 23.3% used glucose values, 38.8% relied on patient-reported symptoms, 17.2% accepted either glucose values or patient-reported symptoms and 2.6% relied on International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes. Among 189 studies reporting severe hypoglycemia, 11.1% provided no definition, 53.4% required symptoms needing assistance, 3.7% relied on glucose values, 14.8% relied on ICD codes, 2.6% relied on ICD codes or glucose values and 15.9% required both symptoms needing assistance and glucose values. Overall, 38.2% of non-severe and 67.7% of severe hypoglycemia definitions were consistent with the International Hypoglycemia Study Group.ConclusionsThe marked heterogeneity in how hypoglycemia is defined in observational studies may contribute to the inadequate understanding and correction of hypoglycemia risk factors among patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract: Background: Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has a broad clinical presentation, involving multiple organs besides the respiratory system. Currently, there is little evidence available on the presence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in peritoneal fluid (PF). In this study, we describe the detection of SARS-CoV-2 in the PF of two patients with COVID 19 and kidney disease.Case presentation: Case 1: A 71-year-old woman with a history of end-stage kidney disease who presented with a 15-day evolution of progressive dyspnea, accompanied by dry cough and fever; IgM antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 were detected on admission. Real-time SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) in the PF was positive. Three days after admission the patient's respiratory distress improved and she was discharged after 8 days of hospitalization.Case 2: A 78-year-old woman, with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, a 15-day history of polypnea, and a 5-day onset of fever and dyspnea. IgM and IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 were detected on admission, as well as a positive nasopharyngeal qRT-PCR test for SARS-CoV-2. During hospitalization she developed acute kidney injury, requiring peritoneal dialysis, SARS-CoV-2 was confirmed in PF by qRT-PCRConclusions: These two cases highlights the importance of increasing the level of awareness for the presence and possible SARS-CoV-2 transmission through non-respiratory routes, like peritoneal fluid.Emphasis should be given to appropriate preventive strategies for minimizing the risk of transmission of COVID-19 from patients on peritoneal dialysis in both inpatient and outpatient settings.

Abstract: ObjectivesThis study aimed to determine the seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infection in pregnant women in Matehuala City, Mexico; and the associated risk factors.DesignA cross-sectional study.SettingMatehuala City, Mexico.Participants311 pregnant women.Primary and secondary outcome measuresSera of women were analysed for anti-T. gondii IgG and IgM antibodies by commercially available immunoassays. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were used to assess the association between T. gondii seroprevalence and the characteristics of the pregnant women.ResultsThirteen (4.2%) of the 311 pregnant women studied were positive for anti-T. gondii IgG antibodies. No anti-T. gondii IgM antibodies were found in anti-T. gondii IgG seropositive women. No association between seropositivity and history of blood transfusion, transplantation, caesarean sections, deliveries, miscarriages or number of pregnancies was found. Logistic regression analysis of sociodemographic, behavioural and housing variables showed that availability of potable water at street represented a risk factor for T. gondii infection (age-adjusted OR=2.18; 95% CI: 1.05 to 4.53; p=0.03), whereas being born in Mexico was a protective factor for infection (age-adjusted OR=0.01; 95% CI: 0.001 to 0.35; p=0.008).ConclusionsIn this first study on the seroepidemiology of T. gondii infection in pregnant women in Matehuala, we conclude that the seroprevalence of T. gondii infection is low and similar to those reported in pregnant women in other Mexican cities. However, the seroprevalence found is lower than those reported in pregnant women in other countries in the Americas and Europe. Two risk factors associated with T. gondii infection were identified. Results of the present study may help for the optimal planning of preventive measures against toxoplasmosis in pregnant women.
