    Histiocytic Sarcoma (HS) is a rare hematologic malignancy that belongs to the group of histiocytic and dendritic cell neoplasms. The causal etiology of HS is unknown. The clinical course is very aggressive

    Interdigitating Dendritic Cell Sarcoma (IDCS) is a very uncommon neoplasm embedded in the group of histiocytic and dendritic cell neoplasms. IDCS is a diagnosis of exclusion, being mandatory the preclusion of follicular dendritic cell sarcoma, histiocytic sarcoma, melanoma, and metastases, among another neoplasm. The clinical course is aggressive. BRAF V600E has been reported in IDCS

    Indeterminate dendritic cell tumor (IDCT) is an extremely rare hematopoietic malignancy. The indeterminate cells are considered a precursor stage of skin dendritic or Langerhans cells. IDCT is frequently misdiagnosed as another dendritic or histiocytic cell neoplasm, with Langerhans cell histiocytosis being the most common. Recently, cases with recurrent ETV3/NCOA2 translocation have been described

    Objectives: To determine the factors associated with self-medication with drugs related to COVID-19 in health sciences students. Materials and methods: Observational, analytical, cross-sectional study in students of the health sciences of Tacna-Peru. Through a virtual survey, socio-educational variables, practices, self-medication characteristics and exposure to COVID-19 were recognized. The result was self-medication in the last 3 months with at least 1 in 14 drugs. The prevalence ratios were calculated using generalized linear models. Results: Of the 718 students, 51.3% live on self-medication. 62.2% self-medicated because they presented the highest number of respiratory symptoms and the drugs used more antipyretics, analgesics and corticosteroids. Students with a sentimental partner (PR: 1.33; 95% CI: 1.16-1.53), from a private university (PR: 1.36; 95% CI: 1.10- 1.69), that the priests in his family have a picnic a few times (PR: 2.34, 95% CI: 1.58-3.47) and in which a program sized for COVID-19 (PR : 1.47, 95% CI: 1.14-1.89). Conclusion: We found a high prevalence of self-medication. Most of them have self-medication that has a sentimental partner, from a private university, that their priests or relatives are on selfpicnic and that they have a size problem due to COVID-19, which they could use to promote the rational use of medications.Objetivos: Determinar los factores asociados a la automedicación con fármacos relacionados con COVID-19 en estudiantes de ciencias de la salud. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional, analítico transversal, en estudiantes de ciencias de la salud de Tacna-Perú. Mediante un cuestionario virtual se recolectaron variables socioeducativas, prácticas, características de automedicación y exposición a COVID-19. El resultado fue automático en los últimos 3 meses con al menos 1 de 14 fármacos. Se calcularon las razones de prevalencia mediante los modelos lineales generalizados. Resultados:De los 718 estudiantes, el 51,3% se había automedicado. 62,2% se automedicó por presentar dos o más síntomas respiratorios siendo los fármacos más utilizados los antipiréticos, analgésicos y corticoides. Tuvieron mayor frecuencia de automedicación los estudiantes con pareja sentimental (RP: 1,33; IC95%: 1,16-1,53), de una universidad particular (RP: 1,36; IC95%: 1,10-1,69 ), que sus padres o familiares se automediquen algunas veces o siempre (RP: 2,34; IC95%: 1,58–3,47) y en los que se realizaron una prueba de tamizaje para COVID-19 (RP: 1, 47; IC95%: 1,14-1,89). Conclusiones:Encontramos una alta prevalencia de automedicación. Tuvieron mayor frecuencia de automedicación quienes tenían una pareja sentimental, proceden de una universidad particular, que sus padres o familiares se automediquen y en quienes se realizaron una prueba de tamizaje para COVID-19, lo cual podría ser utilizado para promover el uso racional de medicamentos

    A decision framework to integrate in-situ and ex-situ management for species in the European Union

    Zoos and aquaria in the European Union (EU) can play a crucial role in the conservation of EU species, as they currently hold nearly half (49%) of EU terrestrial vertebrates. In this study, we analyzed the species composition and population sizes of EU zoos and developed a framework to prioritize recommendations for additional ex-situ and in-situ interventions for 277 at-risk EU species. Our results showed that EU zoos currently hold 39% of threatened EU species, 27% of EU endemic species, 62% of EU species vulnerable to climate change, 20% of EU species listed by the Alliance for Zero Extinction (AZE), 25% of Evolutionary Distinct and Globally Endangered (EDGE) EU species, while only 5% are subject to ex-situ conservation. Using our framework, we found that additional captive breeding was recommended for 60-61%% of species while expanding protected areas was recommended for only 2–22%, as 217 out of 277 species already met habitat protection targets. Both interventions were recommended for up to 20% of species, while the remaining 18% required no interventions because captive populations and habitat protection fully met targets. Our flexible framework can support more effective integrated conservation planning decisions for EU species and help identify target species for further in-depth assessment by the IUCN Ex-situ guidelines
