Abstract

Rezafungin is a long-acting, intravenously administered echinocandin for the treatment of candidemia and invasive candidiasis (IC). Non-inferiority of rezafungin vs caspofungin for the treatment of adults with candidemia and/or IC was demonstrated in the Phase 3 ReSTORE study based on the primary endpoints of day 14 global cure and 30-day all-cause mortality. Here, an analysis of ReSTORE data evaluating efficacy outcomes by baseline Candida species is described. Susceptibility testing was performed for Candida species using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute reference broth microdilution method. There were 93 patients in the modified intent-to-treat population who received rezafungin; 94 received caspofungin. Baseline Candida species distribution was similar in the two treatment groups; C. albicans (occurring in 41.9% and 42.6% of patients in the rezafungin and caspofungin groups, respectively), C. glabrata (25.8% and 26.6%), and C. tropicalis (21.5% and 18.1%) were the most common pathogens. Rates of global cure and mycological eradication at day 14 and day 30 all-cause mortality by Candida species were comparable in the rezafungin and caspofungin treatment groups and did not appear to be impacted by minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values for either rezafungin or caspofungin. Two patients had baseline isolates with non-susceptible MIC values (both in the rezafungin group: one non-susceptible to rezafungin and one to caspofungin, classified as intermediate); both were candidemia-only patients in whom rezafungin treatment was successful based on the day 30 all-cause mortality endpoint. This analysis of ReSTORE demonstrated the efficacy of rezafungin for candidemia and IC in patients infected with a variety of Candida species.

Abstract

Robust grasping is a major, and still unsolved, problem in robotics. Information about the 3D shape of an object can be obtained either from prior knowledge (e.g., accurate models of known objects or approximate models of familiar objects) or real-time sensing (e.g., partial point clouds of unknown objects) and can be used to identify good potential grasps. However, due to modeling and sensing inaccuracies, local exploration is often needed to refine such grasps and successfully apply them in the real world. The recently proposed unscented Bayesian optimization technique can make such exploration safer by selecting grasps that are robust to uncertainty in the input space (e.g., inaccuracies in the grasp execution). Extending our previous work on 2D optimization, in this paper we propose a 3D haptic exploration strategy that combines unscented Bayesian optimization with a novel collision penalty heuristic to find safe grasps in a very efficient way: while by augmenting the search-space to 3D we are able to find better grasps, the collision penalty heuristic allows us to do so without increasing the number of exploration steps., Comment: 2018 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS)

Abstract

We describe the ensemble properties of the $1.9 < z < 3.5$ Lyman Alpha Emitters (LAEs) found in the HETDEX survey's first public data release, HETDEX Public Source Catalog 1 (Mentuch Cooper et al. 2023). Stacking the low-resolution ($R \sim$ 800) spectra greatly increases the signal-to-noise ratio, revealing spectral features otherwise hidden by noise, and we show that the stacked spectrum is representative of an average member of the set. The flux limited, Ly$\alpha$ signal-to-noise ratio restricted stack of 50K HETDEX LAEs shows the ensemble biweight ``average" $z \sim 2.6$ LAE to be a blue (UV continuum slope $\sim -2.4$ and E(B-V) $< 0.1$), moderately bright (M$_{\text{UV}} \sim -19.7$) star forming galaxy with strong Ly$\alpha$ emission (log $L_{Ly\alpha}$ $\sim$ 42.8 and $W_{\lambda}$(Ly$\alpha$) $\sim$ 114\AA), and potentially significant leakage of ionizing radiation. The restframe UV light is dominated by a young, metal poor stellar population with an average age 5-15 Myr and metallicity of 0.2-0.3 Z$_{\odot}$., Comment: 17 pages, 11 figures, 2 data files (ApJ Accepted)

Astrophysics - Solar and Stellar Astrophysics
Abstract

All single stars that are born with masses up to 8.5 - 10 $M_\odot$ will end their lives as a white dwarf (WD) star. In this evolutionary stage, WDs enter the cooling sequence, where the stars radiate away their thermal energy, and are basically cooling. As these stars cool, they reach temperatures and conditions that cause the stars to pulsate. Using differential photometry to produce light curves, we can determine the observed periods of pulsation from the WD. We used the White Dwarf Evolution Code (WDEC) to calculate a grid of over one million models with various temperature, stellar mass and mass of helium and hydrogen layers, and calculated their theoretical pulsation periods. In this paper, we describe our approach to WD asteroseismology using WDEC models and we present seismological studies for 29 observed DAVs in the Kepler and K2 datasets, 25 of which have never been analyzed using these observations, and 19 of which have never been seismically analyzed in any capacity before. Learning about the internal structure of WDs place important constraints on the WD cooling sequence and our overall understanding of stellar evolution for low mass stars., Comment: 22 pages, 9 Tables and 12 Figures, ApJ accepted

Abstract

Additive manufacturing for new constructions or repairing purposes may deal with the use of dissimilar materials. Hence, the influence of interface between the substrate layer and printed one is crucial. This study delves into the impact of printed layers on the microstructure and hardness of an upcycled AISI 303 alloy produced by Direct Energy Deposition. Chemical composition distribution, phase and grain size evolutions were studied, accompanied with microhardness measurements.Microscopic analysis through chemical composition mapping and using electron backscatter diffraction technique for crystallography analysis revealed that the interface structure is strongly affected by the distribution of chemical composition and the heat received from subsequent printing. That means, a dominant transformation of austenite to martensite/ferrite occurs at the first layer printed on the top of the substrate. This is confirmed by hardness measurements (442 ± 15 HV0.1). This dominance (global martensite/ferrite distribution of 42%) is attributed to the reduction of Cr, Ni and Mn contents in the first layer, caused by Marangoni convection currents. This study confirms that subsequent printing favors the evolution of martensite/ferrite to austenite (global distribution of 75%) and grain growth, leading to hardness decrease to around 295 ± 34 HV0.1, leaving small difference with the printed AISI 303 alloy with a hardness of 235 ± 18 HV0.1.

Abstract

Brucella spp. are facultatively intracellular bacteria that can infect, survive, and multiply in various host cell types in vivo and/or in vitro. The genus Brucella has markedly expanded in recent years with the identification of novel species and hosts, which has revealed additional information about the cell and tissue tropism of these pathogens. Classically, Brucella spp. are considered to have tropism for organs that contain large populations of phagocytes such as lymph nodes, spleen, and liver, as well as for organs of the genital system, including the uterus, epididymis, testis, and placenta. However, experimental infections of several different cultured cell types indicate that Brucella may actually have a broader cell tropism than previously thought. Indeed, recent studies indicate that certain Brucella species in particular hosts may display a pantropic distribution in vivo. This review discusses the available knowledge on cell and tissue tropism of Brucella spp. in natural infections of various host species, as well as in experimental animal models and cultured cells.

14. Connecting Higher Education to the Labour Market: The Experience of Service Learning in a Portuguese University

Author

Pais, Sofia Castanheira, Dias, Teresa Silva, and Benício, Deyse

Abstract

The mission of higher education institutions (HEI) includes fostering conditions that enable student participation, and a commitment to their professional success. Pedagogical strategies which combine learning that goes beyond the university and involves a service-learning (SL) course carried out in the context of a pedagogical innovation programme of the University of Porto were examined. This examination included interviews with teachers, a focus group discussion with students and the analysis of logbooks and final reports to realize the potential of SL for improving employability. The results put into perspective the weaknesses and potentialities of SL courses at HEI and show that when academic learning is integrated with community experience, students gain both personal/social and academic skills. They also develop leadership and communication skills and critical awareness on the one hand and time and resources management and the ability to adapt and respond to challenges of the real world on the other, all seen as beneficial for the transition into the labour market.

Abstract

BackgroundAlthough long-acting, injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA) pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has proven efficacious for HIV prevention in clinical trials, research is needed to guide effective implementation in real-world settings. Formative work with community members and health care providers (HCPs) is important to provide insight into the needs and contexts of specific populations and reveal potential barriers and facilitators for implementation projects. ObjectiveWe aimed to describe the results from formative work to develop an implementation package for CAB-LA PrEP within the ImPrEP CAB Brasil study. MethodsImPrEP CAB Brasil is an implementation study of same-day delivery of CAB-LA PrEP for young sexual and gender minority (SGM) groups (aged 18-30 years) in 6 existing oral PrEP public health clinics. We conducted formative research to prepare for the implementation of ImPrEP CAB Brasil through community mobilization, process mapping with HCPs with experience in CAB-LA, and focus group discussions (FGDs) with young SGM groups (n=92) and HCPs (n=20) to identify initial perceptions of facilitators and barriers for CAB-LA PrEP implementation, refine the mobile health (mHealth) educational tool, and evaluate the acceptability of using a text message appointment reminder intervention through WhatsApp. FGDs were recorded, transcribed, systematically coded, and analyzed with thematic categorization by trained researchers using a qualitative data analysis program ATLAS.ti (version 7). ResultsA community mobilization team comprising 34 SGM community leaders collaborated in creating a prototype for an mHealth educational tool and contributed to the planning of peer education activities. We created 3 process maps for each site to describe the initial visit, follow-up visits, and laboratory flow. The main challenge identified for same-day CAB-LA PrEP delivery was the extended duration of clinic visits due to the numerous laboratory tests and HIV counseling steps required. Proposed solutions included having point-of-care HIV rapid tests instead of laboratory tests and additional counseling staff. Barriers for CAB-LA PrEP implementation identified through FGDs were the training of HCPs, support for adherence to injection appointments, and stigma or discrimination against SGM groups and persons using PrEP. The mHealth educational tool and WhatsApp reminders were highly acceptable by SGM groups and HCPs, indicating their potential to support PrEP choice and adherence. Content analysis on the cultural appropriateness of the language and overall clarity of the material contributed to the refinement of the mHealth tool. ConclusionsStructured formative work with SGM persons and HCPs generated important refinements to context-specific materials and plans to launch ImPrEP CAB Brasil in public health clinics. Ongoing implementation monitoring will use the process maps to identify additional barriers and potential solutions to same-day delivery of CAB-LA PrEP. Summative evaluations are needed to measure the effectiveness of the mHealth educational tool to support PrEP choice and the use of WhatsApp appointment reminders.

Abstract

Objetivos: A Fundação Hemominas é constituída por uma rede de 21 Unidades descentralizadas nas macrorregiões de Minas Gerais. Considerando a dimensão geográfica do estado, a distribuição de insumos partindo do Almoxarifado Central em Contagem, região metropolitana de Belo Horizonte para as Unidades regionais percorre grandes distâncias. O objetivo deste trabalho foi revalidar o envio de materiais críticos transportados à temperatura ambiente, do Almoxarifado Central para todas as Unidades da rede, pelo monitoramento das temperaturas de transporte, tempo de transporte e integridade da carga no ato do recebimento no destino final. Material e métodos: Foi feito o monitoramento dos envios de carga das rotas entre o Almoxarifado Central e as Unidades regionais, colocando-se os sensores de temperatura sobre a carga e utilizando manta térmica sobre o sensor e carga, buscando obter dados mais fidedignos relacionados aos insumos transportados e a carga de insumos críticos foi montada em pallets específicos e organizados de acordo com a ordem de descarregamento conforme logística da rota programada entre o Almoxarifado e as Unidades regionais. Foram distribuídos sobre a carga, 3 termômetros tipo data-logger, programados para registrar as temperaturas a cada 15 minutos. Como nova estratégia de transporte e monitoramento da temperatura, os pallets contendo os insumos críticos foram cobertos por uma manta laminada, de modo a ficarem menos sujeitos à ação de radiação térmica propagada através da lataria do baú de transporte do caminhão. Foram consideradas para análise o valor MKT (mean kinetic temperature ) fornecido pelo data-logger. Foram feitos 58 monitoramentos, somando-se todos os registros gerados durante as excursões nas 6 rotas programadas. Resultados: : A distância percorrida das 6 rotas foi de 338 km para distância final da rota mais curta a 664 km para distância final da rota mais longa, o que deu um tempo médio de percurso que variou de 26h a 44h20min. A média de MKT por rota variou de 21,8°C a 23,82°C, correspondendo respectivamente às rotas de menor e maior distância. Discussão: : Não houve uma correlação da média da MKT com o tempo gasto no percurso, sendo observada uma estabilidade das temperaturas médias cinéticas alcançadas durante o transporte, com a MKT apresentando valores muito similares em todas as rotas, apesar das grandes diferenças de distância entre elas. O maior valor MKT observado foi de 25,7°C, bem abaixo da MKT máxima estabelecida de 30°C. Os resultados também mostraram que a média da MKT e da temperatura média simples registrada durante os envios foi quase idêntica (correlação de Pearson > 0,99), demonstrando que não houve evidência de variações significativas ao longo do processo, onde a soma da temperatura e tempo de transporte pudessem prejudicar a integridade da carga. Conclusão: Em todas as rotas houve tempo de transporte superior a 24 h, mas a MKT se manteve em excelente nível nas rotas citadas, o que demonstrou que nosso processo de transporte é seguro e dentro das boas práticas estabelecidas. A adoção do parâmetro MKT (mean kinetic temperature ) se mostrou uma excelente escolha para monitoramento de transporte de cargas entre almoxarifados. Por fim, atribuímos ao uso da manta térmica a ótima estabilidade e homogeneidade da temperatura ao longo das excursões realizadas, mantendo um ambiente isotérmico desejável para este tipo de transporte.

Abstract

Resumo Objetivo Analisar evidências sobre os custos financeiros de famílias no cuidado de crianças e adolescentes durante o tratamento oncológico. Métodos Revisão integrativa. As buscas foram realizadas nas bases de dados: PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, Web of Science e EMBASE. Foram considerados artigos publicados em português, espanhol e inglês, nos últimos dez anos, com diferentes desenhos de estudo e que abordassem a temática. Para as buscas, foram utilizados os descritores controlados MeSH, dos títulos CINAHL e EMTREE, seus sinônimos e palavras-chave, interligados pelos operadores booleanos AND e OR. Resultados Foram incluídos 22 artigos. Os resultados foram descritos em categorias: Custos diretos (médicos e não médicos) e indiretos (condição laboral parental e renda familiar). Os custos médicos são aqueles associados a hospitalizações, tratamento e diagnóstico. Os principais elementos responsáveis pelas despesas não médicas foram viagens, alimentação e acomodação. O impacto na situação laboral das famílias é consequência da alta demanda de cuidados imposta aos cuidadores para o tratamento do câncer infantojuvenil. Em decorrência da mudança na situação de trabalho, as famílias precisam lidar com o risco e desdobramentos da diminuição ou perda de renda. Conclusão Os resultados indicam que as famílias assumem despesas médicas diretas e indiretas, bem como custos não relacionados à saúde decorrentes da doença. Além disso, são afetadas por custos indiretos, como perda de produtividade, impacto e mudanças no emprego, o que reduz significativamente a renda.

Abstract

Objetivou-se avaliar o efeito da inclusão de nitrogênio não proteico (NNP) no suplemento e a influência de diferentes tempos de maturação sobre características físico-químicas no músculo de bovinos de corte (½ Angus + ½ Nelore) em pastejo. Foram utilizados 108 bifes do músculo Longissimus dorsi, retirados de 36 bovinos não castrados, com aproximadamente 20 meses de idade e peso corporal inicial de 400,33 ± 40,87 kg, em delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado e esquema fatorial, com doze tratamentos, constituídos pela combinação de quatro dietas pré-abate e três tempos de maturação da carne, sendo um bife por unidade experimental totalizando nove repetições. As dietas pré-abate foram compostas por pasto e suplementação concentrada com baixo, médio e alto teor de NNP e controle (não suplementado). Não houve interação (p > 0,05) entre dietas e tempos de maturação (TM) sobre a luminosidade, teor de vermelho e intensidade de amarelo, pH e força de cisalhamento da carne. Independente dos TM, animais não suplementados apresentaram menor (p < 0,05) perda de água por cocção (5,92%) e carnes mais duras (3,32 kgf cm-3) que bovinos que receberam dieta com média concentração de NNP (2,62 kgf cm-3). Os animais que receberam dietas com baixa suplementação de NNP apresentaram carnes com maior (p < 0,05) pigmentação vermelha, além de bifes mais leves (p < 0,05) no pós-cocção do que bovinos não suplementados e aqueles alimentados com dieta contendo média suplementação de NNP. Independente das classes de NNP, a maturação realizada até o 9º dia é eficaz para aumentar a maciez da carne dos bovinos. Bovinos cruzados (½ Angus + ½ Nelore) que consomem dietas com baixa ou média suplementação de nitrogênio não proteico apresentam bifes com melhores condições de intensidade de cor vermelha e de maciez, respectivamente.

Abstract

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To analyze the impact of the fiscal austerity policy (PAF) on health spending in Brazilian municipalities, considering population size and source of funds. METHODS The interrupted time series method was used to analyze the effect of the PAF on total expenditure, resources transferred by the Federal Government, and own/state per capita resources allocated to health in the municipalities. The time series analyzed covered the period from 2010 to 2019, every six months. The first semester of 2015 was adopted as the start date of the intervention. The municipalities were grouped into small (up to 100,000 inhabitants), medium (101,000 to 400,000 inhabitants), and large (over 400,000 inhabitants). The data was obtained from the Sistema de Informações sobre Orçamentos Públicos em Saúde (Information System on Public Health Budget). RESULTS The results for the national average of municipalities show that the PAF had a negative impact on the level of total expenditure and own/state resources allocated to health in the first half of 2015, without causing statically significant changes in the trends of any of the indicators analyzed in the period after 2015. Small municipalities saw a drop in total expenditure, while large municipalities saw a drop in own/state resources, and medium-sized municipalities saw a drop in both variables. There was no statistically significant drop in the volume of funds transferred by the Federal Government in the immediate aftermath of the implementation of the PAF in any of the municipal groups analyzed. In the medium-term, the PAF only had a negative impact on the large municipalities, which saw significant reductions in the trends of own/state resources and those transferred by the Union for health. CONCLUSION In general, the impact of the PAF on health financing in municipalities was immediate and based on the decrease in own/state resources allocated to health. In large municipalities, however, the impact lasted from 2015 to 2019, mainly affecting health expenditure from federal funds.

Abstract

Abstract Objective: to analyze the meaning attributed by parents to the extended and permanent survival of childhood cancer. Method: qualitative narrative inquiry, developed with parents of adolescents and young adults who survived childhood cancer. Recruitment and data collection involved virtual and in-person approaches. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed according to reflective thematic analysis. Results: a total of ten parents were included in the study. Two thematic narrative syntheses were constructed: “Times of war”; and “Time of uncertain peace”, with their respective sub-themes. The cancer diagnosis marks the beginning of times of war in the parents’ lives. They experience cancer treatment as “highs and lows” with potential threats to their children’s lives. After that, “Time of uncertain peace” are reached, and the balance of the family unit is reestablished. However, the fear of recurrence makes the family peace uncertain, and its maintenance requires constant vigilance and attention to the signs and symptoms of a possible new battle. Conclusion: the results highlight the experience of being a parent of a childhood cancer survivor and can be applied to develop models of care centered on the survivors’ family.

Abstract

Abstract Objective: to compare the decision-making of Nursing students, before and after theoretical training on basic life support, using the practice of high-fidelity simulation and medium-fidelity simulation. Method: an experimental study was developed, pre- and post-test type, with quantitative, descriptive and inferential analysis, with theoretical training on basic life support and clinical simulation practices, and with evaluation of knowledge and decision-making of Nursing students, at three different moments - before the simulation scenario (T0), after the simulation scenario (T1) and after clinical teaching (T2). Results: 51 students participated in the research, with an average age of 20.25±3.804, of which 92.2% were female. Statistically significant differences (F=6.47; p=0.039) were evident regarding the definition of the problem and development of objectives in decision-making in the experimental group. Conclusion: Nursing students demonstrate an adequate level of knowledge and a good decision-making process, based on the most current instruments produced by scientific evidence, in clinical simulation scenarios in basic life support, and this innovative methodology should be deepened in the Nursing teaching.

Abstract

Background: Taurolidine exhibits broad antimicrobial activity and is a component of a recently FDA approved catheter lock solution (DefenCath®, taurolidine 13,500 μg/mL and heparin 1000 Units/mL) indicated for reducing the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) in adult patients receiving chronic hemodialysis through a central venous catheter (HD-CVC). FDA approval was based on a Phase 3 randomized trial (LOCK-IT-100) in which DefenCath showed a 71% reduction in CRBSI risk among HD-CVC patients as compared with heparin alone. Although individual isolates from the clinical program were not available for testing, this study evaluated the in vitro antimicrobial activity of taurolidine against a set of recent clinical isolates representative of those recovered from the LOCK-IT-100 trial and/or those commonly associated with CRBSI. Methods: 420 bacterial and 50 yeast isolates were selected from the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program. All isolates were collected from the bloodstream of patients in the U.S. between 2018-2023. Isolates were tested for susceptibility to taurolidine and comparators using Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) broth microdilution guidelines. JMI Laboratories produced susceptibility test panels for testing. CLSI-recommended quality control strains were also tested concurrently. MIC values were determined after 24 hours. Results: Taurolidine exhibited broad antimicrobial activity against all isolates tested (see table). Against gram-positive bacteria, taurolidine MIC50/90 values ranged from 256-512/512-1,024 μg/mL for S. aureus, Coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, Enterococcus species, and Viridans group streptococci. This activity was maintained regardless of methicillin susceptibility for Staphylococcal isolates or vancomycin resistance among Enterococcal species. Against gram-negative bacteria, taurolidine MIC50/90 values ranged from 256-1,024/512-2,048 μg/mL for Enterobacterales, P. aeruginosa, S. maltophilia, A. baumannii-calcoaceticus, and B. cepacia. This activity was maintained in both multidrug resistant Enterobacterales and P. aeruginosa isolates. Among Candida isolates, taurolidine MIC50/90 values ranged from 256-512/512 μg/mL for C. glabrata and C. parapsilosis while taurolidine MIC50/90 values of 4,096/4,096 μg/mL were observed for C. albicans. Conclusions: Taurolidine activity was very similar among a large collection of gram-positive, gram-negative, and yeast organisms. MIC90 values for all species/groups were ≤2,048 μg/mL, except C. albicans where an MIC90 of 4,096 μg/mL was observed. The activity of taurolidine was unaffected by resistance to antibiotics (i.e. methicillin, vancomycin, or multi-drug resistance) among gram-positive or gram-negative organisms. Based on these data, catheter lock solutions containing the broad-spectrum antimicrobial taurolidine at 13,500 μg/mL have the potential to prevent CRBSI caused by a variety of species, including those observed in the recent LOCK-IT-100 clinical trial and other common bloodstream pathogens

Abstract

The literature shows that there are dimensions related to soil legislation and policy in the European Union contexts that can be better explored through bibliometric analysis, systematic reviews and quantitative approaches. Therefore, this research aims to analyse documents on soil legislation and policies, highlighting the specific cases of Portugal and the European Union (EU). The aim is to identify suggestions to improve the Portuguese and European Union soil policy instruments and measures. To achieve these objectives, a bibliometric analysis (considering text and bibliographic data) and systematic review were carried out, as well as a survey of the available soil legislation (considering qualitative data and quantitative analysis). The results show that soil legislation and policy have become more relevant in recent years and that concerns are about soil health, protection and safety, as well as risk mitigation, biodiversity preservation and the maintenance of ecosystem services. However, some topics could be further explored in future research, namely those related to multidisciplinarity, smart methodologies, soil salinisation, innovation and quantitative approaches to assessing policy impacts. This study presents suggestions that can be considered by the Portuguese and European Union policymakers to improve the respective soil legislation and policies. Defining a regulatory system for soils in the European Union has not been easy over time, although there have been attempts, given the specificities of the contexts related to soils and the reluctance of some member states to take certain measures. The approaches and analysis topics considered are innovative (there aren't many scientific documents on the topics that address bibliometric analysis and quantitative assessments with qualitative data) and bring novelty to the literature.

Abstract

Summary: Background: Research in healthy young adults shows that characteristic patterns of brain activity define individual “brain-fingerprints” that are unique to each person. However, variability in these brain-fingerprints increases in individuals with neurological conditions, challenging the clinical relevance and potential impact of the approach. Our study shows that brain-fingerprints derived from neurophysiological brain activity are associated with pathophysiological and clinical traits of individual patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Methods: We created brain-fingerprints from task-free brain activity recorded through magnetoencephalography in 79 PD patients and compared them with those from two independent samples of age-matched healthy controls (N = 424 total). We decomposed brain activity into arrhythmic and rhythmic components, defining distinct brain-fingerprints for each type from recording durations of up to 4 min and as short as 30 s. Findings: The arrhythmic spectral components of cortical activity in patients with Parkinson’s disease are more variable over short periods, challenging the definition of a reliable brain-fingerprint. However, by isolating the rhythmic components of cortical activity, we derived brain-fingerprints that distinguished between patients and healthy controls with about 90% accuracy. The most prominent cortical features of the resulting Parkinson’s brain-fingerprint are mapped to polyrhythmic activity in unimodal sensorimotor regions. Leveraging these features, we also demonstrate that Parkinson’s symptom laterality can be decoded directly from cortical neurophysiological activity. Furthermore, our study reveals that the cortical topography of the Parkinson’s brain-fingerprint aligns with that of neurotransmitter systems affected by the disease’s pathophysiology. Interpretation: The increased moment-to-moment variability of arrhythmic brain-fingerprints challenges patient differentiation and explains previously published results. We outline patient-specific rhythmic brain signaling features that provide insights into both the neurophysiological signature and symptom laterality of Parkinson’s disease. Thus, the proposed definition of a rhythmic brain-fingerprint of Parkinson’s disease may contribute to novel, refined approaches to patient stratification. Symmetrically, we discuss how rhythmic brain-fingerprints may contribute to the improved identification and testing of therapeutic neurostimulation targets. Funding: Data collection and sharing for this project was provided by the Quebec Parkinson Network (QPN), the Pre-symptomatic Evaluation of Novel or Experimental Treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease (PREVENT-AD; release 6.0) program, the Cambridge Centre for Aging Neuroscience (Cam-CAN), and the Open MEG Archives (OMEGA). The QPN is funded by a grant from Fonds de Recherche du Québec - Santé (FRQS). PREVENT-AD was launched in 2011 as a $13.5 million, 7-year public-private partnership using funds provided by McGill University, the FRQS, an unrestricted research grant from Pfizer Canada, the Levesque Foundation, the Douglas Hospital Research Centre and Foundation, the Government of Canada, and the Canada Fund for Innovation. The Brainstorm project is supported by funding to SB from the NIH (R01-EB026299-05). Further funding to SB for this study included a Discovery grant from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada of Canada (436355-13), and the CIHR Canada research Chair in Neural Dynamics of Brain Systems (CRC-2017-00311).

Abstract

Background The integration of diagnostic methods holds promise for advancing the surveillance of malaria transmission in both endemic and non-endemic regions. Serological assays emerge as valuable tools to identify and delimit malaria transmission, serving as a complementary method to rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) and thick smear microscopy. Here, we evaluate the potential of antibodies directed against peptides encompassing the entire amino acid sequence of the PvMSP-1 Sal-I strain as viable serological biomarkers for P. vivax exposure. Methods We screened peptides encompassing the complete amino acid sequence of the Plasmodium vivax Merozoite Surface Protein 1 (PvMSP-1) Sal-I strain as potential biomarkers for P. vivax exposure. Here, immunodominant peptides specifically recognized by antibodies from individuals infected with P. vivax were identified using the SPOT-synthesis technique followed by immunoblotting. Two 15-mer peptides were selected based on their higher and specific reactivity in immunoblotting assays. Subsequently, peptides p70 and p314 were synthesized in soluble form using SPPS (Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis) and tested by ELISA (IgG, and subclasses). Results This study unveils the presence of IgG antibodies against the peptide p314 in most P. vivax-infected individuals from the Brazilian Amazon region. In silico B-cell epitope prediction further supports the utilization of p314 as a potential biomarker for evaluating malaria transmission, strengthened by its amino acid sequence being part of a conserved block of PvMSP-1. Indeed, compared to patients infected with P. falciparum and uninfected individuals never exposed to malaria, P. vivax-infected patients have a notably higher recognition of p314 by IgG1 and IgG3.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective: to interpret the meanings attributed to the health-related quality of life by caregivers of adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods: qualitative, descriptive-exploratory study of 14 caregivers of adolescents with diabetes developed at the reference outpatient clinic for endocrine diseases in a city in the state of Paraíba. Interviews were performed between May and September 2021. Inductive thematic analysis of the empirical material, and its interpretation in light of the concepts of health-related quality of life and family functioning were performed. Results: the meanings attributed by caregivers to the health-related quality of life of adolescents converged on the feeling of being healthy, healthy eating, satisfactory family income, family involvement in care and effective access to the care network. Final Considerations: knowledge of these meanings enables health professionals to develop strategies that meet the unique demands of caregivers experiencing this diagnosis.

Abstract

Católicas pelo Direito de Decidir (CDD) é uma ONG formada predominan-temente por mulheres e constitui objeto deste artigo. O objetivo é mostrar, por meio das análises dos conteúdos das suas publicações, como tem sido formado um contradiscurso que confronta a Igreja Católica em diferentes níveis, sobretudo no que diz respeito aos temas dos direitos sexuais e reprodutivos das mulheres. O argumento desenvolvido parte da perspectiva de que o ativismo religioso conservador se constitui em uma resposta ao avanço dos movimentos feministas e dos movimentos pela diversidade sexual que, além da sexualidade e da moralidade, disputam o eixo central de poder das religiões. Atuando ora como ator religioso, ora como ator político, conectando constantemente estas duas dimensões, a instituição católica vem possibilitando o surgimento de novos discursos no seu interior, cujas vozes se fazem audíveis no mundo público, para além dos muros institucionais, como as Católicas pelo Direito de Decidir.

Abstract

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION Lung cancer (LC) is a relevant public health problem in Brazil and worldwide, given its high incidence and mortality. Thus, the objective of this study is to analyze the distribution of smoking and smoking status according to sociodemographic characteristics and disparities in access, treatment, and mortality due to LC in Brazil in 2013 and 2019. METHOD Retrospective study of triangulation of national data sources: a) analysis of the distribution of smoking, based on the National Survey of Health (PNS); b) investigation of LC records via Hospital-based Cancer Registry (HCR); and c) distribution of mortality due to LC in the Mortality Information System (SIM). RESULTS There was a decrease in the percentage of people who had never smoked from 2013 (68.5%) to 2019 (60.2%) and in smoking history (pack-years). This was observed to be greater in men, people of older age groups, and those with less education. Concerning patients registered in the HCR, entry into the healthcare service occurs at the age of 50, and only 19% have never smoked. While smokers in the population are mainly Mixed-race, patients in the HCR are primarily White. As for the initial stage (I and II), it is more common in White people and people who have never smoked. The mortality rate varied from 1.00 for people with higher education to 3.36 for people without education. Furthermore, White people have a mortality rate three times higher than that of Black and mixed-race people. CONCLUSION This article highlighted relevant sociodemographic disparities in access to LC diagnosis, treatment, and mortality. Therefore, the recommendation is to strengthen the Population-Based Cancer Registry and develop and implement a nationwide LC screening strategy in Brazil since combined prevention and early diagnosis strategies work better in controlling mortality from the disease and continued investment in tobacco prevention and control policies.

Abstract

Background: COVID-19 is primarily known as a respiratory illness; however, many patients present to hospital without respiratory symptoms. The association between non-respiratory presentations of COVID-19 and outcomes remains unclear. We investigated risk factors and clinical outcomes in patients with no respiratory symptoms (NRS) and respiratory symptoms (RS) at hospital admission. Methods: This study describes clinical features, physiological parameters, and outcomes of hospitalised COVID-19 patients, stratified by the presence or absence of respiratory symptoms at hospital admission. RS patients had one or more of: cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, runny nose or wheezing; while NRS patients did not. Results: Of 178,640 patients in the study, 86.4 % presented with RS, while 13.6 % had NRS. NRS patients were older (median age: NRS: 74 vs RS: 65) and less likely to be admitted to the ICU (NRS: 36.7 % vs RS: 37.5 %). NRS patients had a higher crude in-hospital case-fatality ratio (NRS 41.1 % vs. RS 32.0 %), but a lower risk of death after adjusting for confounders (HR 0.88 [0.83–0.93]). Conclusion: Approximately one in seven COVID-19 patients presented at hospital admission without respiratory symptoms. These patients were older, had lower ICU admission rates, and had a lower risk of in-hospital mortality after adjusting for confounders.
