El estado de los derechos fundamentales de los inmigrantes en España y su sistema de garantías

The fundamental rights of immigrants challenge and test many concepts such as the extension and universality of immigrants in the face of forms of exclusion from the social welfare system by erecting citizenship as the ultimate privilege of the state National. Citizenship and social status become inviolable frontiers to foster natural exclusion. Despite their constitutional foresight and proclamation, these rights have a problem of effectiveness. True integration is about dispairing citizenship from the concept of nation and linking it to the logics of the rule of law and representative democracy, given that the underlying issue is economic in nature. Good management of plurality and diversity in society is done through rights and warns against the instrumentalization of immigration for electoral purposes in a context marked by the return of populism and the false propaganda of the social emergency. The expansion of democracy would limit itself to include the most vulnerable circles, it can be realized through the effectiveness of rights and thereby convey the true image of the democracy that Western wants to spread in the world.exclusión del sistema de bienestar social erigiendo a la ciudadanía como último privilegio del estado nacional. La ciudadanía y el estado social se convierten en fronteras inviolables para fomentan una exclusión natural. A pesar de su previsión y proclamación constitucional, estos derechos tienen un problema de eficacia. La verdadera integración pasa por desvincular la ciudadanía del concepto de nación y ligarla a las lógicas del Estado de derecho y la democracia representativa habida cuenta de que la cuestión de fondo es de índole económica. Una buena gestión de la pluralidad y diversidad en la sociedad se hace a través de los derechos y advierte contra la instrumentalización de la inmigración por fines electorales en un contexto marcado por la vuelta del populismo y la falsa propaganda de la emergencia social. La expansión de la democracia hacía sus límites para incluir los círculos más vulnerables se puede hacer realidad a través de la efectividad de los derechos y con ello trasmite la verdadera imagen de la democracia que quiere occidente difundir en el mundo

Burnout among surgeons before and during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic: an international survey

Background: SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has had many significant impacts within the surgical realm, and surgeons have been obligated to reconsider almost every aspect of daily clinical practice. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study reported in compliance with the CHERRIES guidelines and conducted through an online platform from June 14th to July 15th, 2020. The primary outcome was the burden of burnout during the pandemic indicated by the validated Shirom-Melamed Burnout Measure. Results: Nine hundred fifty-four surgeons completed the survey. The median length of practice was 10 years; 78.2% included were male with a median age of 37 years old, 39.5% were consultants, 68.9% were general surgeons, and 55.7% were affiliated with an academic institution. Overall, there was a significant increase in the mean burnout score during the pandemic; longer years of practice and older age were significantly associated with less burnout. There were significant reductions in the median number of outpatient visits, operated cases, on-call hours, emergency visits, and research work, so, 48.2% of respondents felt that the training resources were insufficient. The majority (81.3%) of respondents reported that their hospitals were included in the management of COVID-19, 66.5% felt their roles had been minimized; 41% were asked to assist in non-surgical medical practices, and 37.6% of respondents were included in COVID-19 management. Conclusions: There was a significant burnout among trainees. Almost all aspects of clinical and research activities were affected with a significant reduction in the volume of research, outpatient clinic visits, surgical procedures, on-call hours, and emergency cases hindering the training. Trial registration: The study was registered on clicaltrials.gov "NCT04433286" on 16/06/2020

Lactococcus lactis endocarditis and liver abscess in an immunocompetent patient: a case report and review of the literature

Abstract Background Over the last two decades, several cases of infections caused by Lactococcus lactis have been reported. This Gram-positive coccus is considered non-pathogenic for humans. However, in some rare cases, it can cause serious infections such as endocarditis, peritonitis, and intra-abdominal infections. Case presentation A 56-year-old Moroccan patient was admitted to the hospital because of diffuse abdominal pain and fever. The patient had no past medical history. Five days before his admission, he developed abdominal pain in the right lower quadrant along with chills and feverish sensations. Investigations showed a liver abscess, which was drained, and the microbiological study of the pus revealed Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris. Three days after admission, control computed tomography objectified splenic infarctions. Cardiac explorations were performed and showed a floating vegetation on the ventricle side of the aortic valve. We retained the diagnosis of infectious endocarditis according to the modified Duke criteria. The patient was declared afebrile on day 5 and the evolution was clinically and biologically favorable. Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, formerly known as Streptococcus cremoris, is a rare cause of human infections. The first case of Lactococcus lactis cremoris endocarditis was reported in 1955. This organism includes three subspecies: lactis, cremoris, and hordniae. A MEDLINE and Scopus search showed only 13 cases of infectious endocarditis due to Lactococcus lactis, with subsp. cremoris identified in four of the cases. Conclusions To our knowledge, this is the first case report of the co-occurrence of Lactococcus lactis endocarditis and liver abscess. Despite its reported low virulence and good response to antibiotic treatment, Lactococcus lactis endocarditis must be considered a serious disease. It is imperative for a clinician to suspect this microorganism of causing endocarditis when they notice signs of infectious endocarditis in a patient with a history of consumption of unpasteurized dairy products or contact with farm animals. The finding of a liver abscess should lead to an investigation of endocarditis, even in previously healthy patients without obvious clinical signs of endocarditis

Antiangiogenic and tumour inhibitory effects of downregulating tumour endothelial FABP4

Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) is a fatty acid chaperone, which is induced during adipocyte differentiation. Previously we have shown that endothelial FABP4 is induced by the NOTCH1 signalling pathway, which is involved in mechanisms of resistance to anti-angiogenic tumour therapy1. Here, we investigated the role of FABP4 in endothelial fatty acid metabolism and tumour angiogenesis. We analysed the effect of transient FABP4 knockdown in human umbilical vein endothelial cells on fatty acid metabolism, viability, and angiogenesis. Through therapeutic delivery of siRNA targeting murine FABP4, we investigated the effect of stromal FABP4 knockdown on tumour growth and blood vessel formation. In vitro, siRNA-mediated FABP4 knockdown in endothelial cells led to a marked increase of endothelial fatty acid oxidation, an increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and decreased angiogenesis. In vivo, we found that increased NOTCH1 signalling in tumour xenografts led to increased expression of endothelial FABP4 that decreased when NOTCH1 and VEGFA inhibitors were used in combination. Angiogenesis, growth, and metastasis in ovarian tumour xenografts were markedly inhibited by therapeutic siRNA delivery targeting mouse FABP4. Therapeutic targeting of endothelial FABP4 by siRNA in vivo has anti-angiogenic and anti-tumour effects with minimal toxicity and should be investigated further
