SARSCOVIDB : a new platform for the analysis of the molecular impact of SARS-CoV-2 viral infection

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has become a global emergency issue for public health. This threat has led to an acceleration in related research and, consequently, an unprecedented volume of clinical and experimental data that include changes in gene expression resulting from infection. The SARS-CoV-2 infection database (SARSCOVIDB: https://sarscovidb.org/) was created to mitigate the dificulties related to this scenario. The SARSCOVIDB is an online platform that aims to integrate all differential gene expression data, at messenger RNA and protein levels, helping to speed up analysis and research on the molecular impact of COVID-19. The database can be searched from different experimental perspectives and presents all related information from published data, such as viral strains, hosts, methodological approaches (proteomics or transcriptomics), genes/proteins, and samples (clinical or experimental). All information was taken from 24 articles related to analyses of differential gene expression out of 5,554 COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2-related articles published so far. The database features 12,535 genes whose expression has been identified as altered due to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Thus, the SARSCOVIDB is a new resource to support the health workers and the scientific community in understanding the pathogenesis and molecular impact caused by SARS-CoV-2

Alimentação e nutrição com intenção educação alimentar nas escolas: perspectivas de supervisores pedagógicos da comarca de Diamantina/MG

The objective was to analyze, from the perspective of teaching Supervisors, the differences in issues related to work on the topic of Food & Nutrition(F&N), with the intention of Food and Nutritional Education(FNE), carried out by teachers from public schools in the District of Diamantina in urban and rural locations. This is a survey study, with quantitative and qualitative approaches, in which data collected from an online questionnaire carried out with pedagogical supervisors of early childhood education and elementary education of the 83 municipal and state school units in the District of Diamantina – MG was used. Descriptive statistics, absolute and relative frequencies, and Fisher's exact test were used to determine differences in the proportions of Supervisors' responses, as well as analyzes using the word cloud. The results indicated that there were no statistically significant differences between urban and rural areas. The importance of the participation of educators from rural locations must be ignored. The need to work on FNE dimensions beyond the biological was observed, as well as overcoming limitations, such as the scarcity of teaching materials and teacher training. Strategies are recommended to improve teaching material, train educators and encourage collaboration between disciplines, aiming for comprehensive teaching about F&N.Objetivou-se analisar, na ótica dos Supervisores de ensino, as diferenças em questões relacionadas ao trabalho acerca do tema Alimentação & Nutrição(A&N), com intenção de Educação Alimentar e Nutricional(EAN), realizado por professores de escolas públicas da Comarca de Diamantina nas localidades urbana e rural. Este é um estudo de survey, com abordagens quantitativa e qualitativa, em que foi utilizado dados de coletados de um questionário online realizado com supervisores pedagógicos da educação infantil e do ensino fundamental I das 83 unidades escolares municipais e estaduais da Comarca de Diamantina – MG. Empregou-se estatística descritiva, frequências absolutas e relativas, e o teste exato de Fisher para determinar se as diferenças nas proporções de respostas dos Supervisores, bem como análises por meio da nuvem de palavras. Os resultados indicaram não haver diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre áreas urbanas e rurais. Deve-se descatar a importância da participação dos educadores das localidades rurais. Observou-se a necessidade de se trabalhar dimensões da EAN para além do biológico, bem como superar limitações, como a escassez de materiais didáticos e a capacitação dos professores. Recomenda-se estratégias para melhorar o material didático, capacitar os educadores e fomentar a colaboração entre disciplinas, visando um ensino abrangente sobre A&N

Neurostimulation Combined With Cognitive Intervention in Alzheimer’s Disease (NeuroAD): Study Protocol of Double-Blind, Randomized, Factorial Clinical Trial

Despite advances in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), there is currently no prospect of a cure, and evidence shows that multifactorial interventions can benefit patients. A promising therapeutic alternative is the use of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) simultaneously with cognitive intervention. The combination of these non-pharmacological techniques is apparently a safe and accessible approach. This study protocol aims to compare the efficacy of tDCS and cognitive intervention in a double-blind, randomized and factorial clinical trial. One hundred participants diagnosed with mild-stage AD will be randomized to receive both tDCS and cognitive intervention, tDCS, cognitive intervention, or placebo. The treatment will last 8 weeks, with a 12-month follow-up. The primary outcome will be the improvement of global cognitive functions, evaluated by the AD Assessment Scale, cognitive subscale (ADAS-Cog). The secondary outcomes will include measures of functional, affective, and behavioral components, as well as a neurophysiological marker (Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, BDNF). This study will enable us to assess, both in the short and long term, whether tDCS is more effective than the placebo and to examine the effects of combined therapy (tDCS and cognitive intervention) and isolated treatments (tDCS vs. cognitive intervention) on patients with AD.Clinical Trial Registration: www.ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT02772185—May 5, 2016

Differential cross section measurements for the production of a W boson in association with jets in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV

Measurements are reported of differential cross sections for the production of a W boson, which decays into a muon and a neutrino, in association with jets, as a function of several variables, including the transverse momenta (pT) and pseudorapidities of the four leading jets, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta (HT), and the difference in azimuthal angle between the directions of each jet and the muon. The data sample of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV was collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb[superscript −1]. The measured cross sections are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo generators, MadGraph + pythia and sherpa, and to next-to-leading-order calculations from BlackHat + sherpa. The differential cross sections are found to be in agreement with the predictions, apart from the pT distributions of the leading jets at high pT values, the distributions of the HT at high-HT and low jet multiplicity, and the distribution of the difference in azimuthal angle between the leading jet and the muon at low values.United States.

Juxtaposing BTE and ATE – on the role of the European insurance industry in funding civil litigation

One of the ways in which legal services are financed, and indeed shaped, is through private insurance arrangement. Two contrasting types of legal expenses insurance contracts (LEI) seem to dominate in Europe: before the event (BTE) and after the event (ATE) legal expenses insurance. Notwithstanding institutional differences between different legal systems, BTE and ATE insurance arrangements may be instrumental if government policy is geared towards strengthening a market-oriented system of financing access to justice for individuals and business. At the same time, emphasizing the role of a private industry as a keeper of the gates to justice raises issues of accountability and transparency, not readily reconcilable with demands of competition. Moreover, multiple actors (clients, lawyers, courts, insurers) are involved, causing behavioural dynamics which are not easily predicted or influenced. Against this background, this paper looks into BTE and ATE arrangements by analysing the particularities of BTE and ATE arrangements currently available in some European jurisdictions and by painting a picture of their respective markets and legal contexts. This allows for some reflection on the performance of BTE and ATE providers as both financiers and keepers. Two issues emerge from the analysis that are worthy of some further reflection. Firstly, there is the problematic long-term sustainability of some ATE products. Secondly, the challenges faced by policymakers that would like to nudge consumers into voluntarily taking out BTE LEI
