Evaluación de la eficacia de DPX RDS63 SC200 sobre el control de la polilla de la manzana en un huerto de la región del Maule

26 p.Cydia pomonella (L.) es la plaga principal en los frutales pomáceos en el mundo y es una plaga cuarentenaria en varios mercados. Generalmente, esta plaga ha sido controlada con insecticidas organofosforados, lo que ha generado problemas de resistencia. Es por esto que se han desarrollado diferentes insecticidas con diferentes modalidades de acción para ser usados en programas de rotación y mitigar este problema.Durante la temporada 2013/2014 se evaluó la eficiencia del nuevo insecticida experimental de la empresa DuPont, DPX RDS63 20SC, en el control de C. pomonella en un huerto de manzano de la Región del Maule. Se evaluaron cuatro dosis del insecticida DPX RDS63 20SC (33-50-66-83 cc/100L), dos productos estándares Calypso 480 SC (Thiacloprid) y Coragen ® 20 SC (Rynaxypyr) en sus dosis comerciales y un tratamiento testigo sin aplicación. El producto DPX-RDS63 20SC en su dosis más baja (30 cc/100L) evaluada en un intervalo de aplicación de 14 días fue tan efectivo en el control de C. pomonella como los productos estándares utilizados.Palabras Claves: Cydia pomonella, plaga cuarentenaria, Thiacloprid, Rynaxypyr, DPX RDS63 SC200./ABSTRACT:Cydia pomonella (L.) is the main pest of pome fruits worldwide and a quarantine pest in several markets. This pest has been controlled generally with organophosphate insecticides, which has generated resistance problems. For this reason different insecticides with diverse modes of action have been developed for rotation programs to mitigate this problem.During the 2013/2014 season the efficiency of the experimental insecticide from DuPont, DPX RDS63 20SC was evaluated in the control of C. pomonella in an apple orchard of the Maule Region, Chile. Four doses of insecticide DPX RDS63 20SC (33-50-66-83 cc / 100L), two standard products Calypso 480 SC (thiacloprid) and Coragen ® 20 SC (Rynaxypyr) at commercial rates, and one check treatment without insecticide sprays were evaluated.The lowest evaluated dose (30 cc / 100L) of DPX-20SC RDS63 in a spray interval of 14 days was effective in the control of C. pomonella as the standard products used.Key words: Cydia pomonella, quarantine pest, thiacloprid, Rynaxypyr, DPX RDS63 SC20

Analysis of connected air voids in warm mix asphalt

Warm mix asphalt (WMA) are asphalt mixtures produced at reduced temperatures as compared to conventional hot mix asphalt (HMA). Temperature reductions in the order of 10 to 50 C are possible through the incorporation of diverse WMA type additives. However, different aspects, including the mixture internal structure of WMA, are still object of research. Consequently, this paper focused on the assessment of the internal structure of WMA (computed in terms of the Connected Air Voids (CAV) characteristics), fabricated using three WMA additives: Asphamin®, Sasobit®, and Evotherm®. The CAV content corresponds to the fraction of Air Voids (AV) forming connected paths in a compacted specimen and is better related to the asphalt mixture response (e.g., permeability) than the total AV content. The CAV analysis was based on X-ray Computed Tomography scanning and subsequent image analysis. Corresponding results suggested the need of additional research to further characterize field compacted mixtures, produced at densification levels comparable to those achieved in the laboratory. In addition, the inclusion of WMA additives and corresponding temperature reductions did not substantially affect the internal structure of gyratory-compacted specimens (115 mm in height) produced for laboratory mixture evaluation

Obesity-associated insulin resistance is correlated to adipose tissue vascular endothelial growth factors and metalloproteinase levels

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The expansion of adipose tissue is linked to the development of its vasculature, which appears to have the potential to regulate the onset of obesity. However, at present, there are no studies highlighting the relationship between human adipose tissue angiogenesis and obesity-associated insulin resistance (IR).</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Our aim was to analyze and compare angiogenic factor expression levels in both subcutaneous (SC) and omentum (OM) adipose tissues from morbidly obese patients (n = 26) with low (OB/L-IR) (healthy obese) and high (OB/H-IR) degrees of IR, and lean controls (n = 17). Another objective was to examine angiogenic factor correlations with obesity and IR.</p> <p>Here we found that <it>VEGF-A </it>was the isoform with higher expression in both OM and SC adipose tissues, and was up-regulated 3-fold, together with <it>MMP9 </it>in OB/L-IR as compared to leans. This up-regulation decreased by 23% in OB/-H-IR compared to OB/L-IR. On the contrary, <it>VEGF-B</it>, <it>VEGF-C </it>and <it>VEGF-D</it>, together with <it>MMP15 </it>was down-regulated in both OB/H-IR and OB/L-IR compared to lean patients. Moreover, <it>MMP9 </it>correlated positively and <it>VEGF-C</it>, <it>VEGF-D </it>and <it>MMP15 </it>correlated negatively with HOMA-IR, in both SC and OM.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>We hereby propose that the alteration in <it>MMP15</it>, <it>VEGF-B</it>, <it>VEGF-C </it>and <it>VEGF-D </it>gene expression may be caused by one of the relevant adipose tissue processes related to the development of IR, and the up-regulation of <it>VEGF-A </it>in adipose tissue could have a relationship with the prevention of this pathology.</p

Divergent regulation of insulin-like growth factor binding protein genes in cultured Atlantic salmon myotubes under different models of catabolism and anabolism

This work received funding from the MASTS pooling initiative (The Marine Alliance for Science and Technology for Scotland) and their support is gratefully acknowledged. MASTS is funded by the Scottish Funding Council (grant reference HR09011) and contributing institutions.Much attention has been given to insulin-like growth factor (Igf) pathways that regulate the balance of skeletal muscle protein synthesis and breakdown in response to a range of extrinsic and intrinsic signals. However, we have a less complete understanding of how the same signals modulate muscle mass upstream of such signalling, through a family of functionally-diverse Igf-binding proteins (Igfbps) that modify the availability of Igfs to the cell receptor Igf1r. We exposed cultured myotubes from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) to treatments recapturing three catabolic signals: inflammation (interleukin-1β), stress (dexamethasone) and fasting (amino acid deprivation), plus one anabolic signal: recovery of muscle mass post-fasting (supplementation of fasted myotubes with Igf-I and amino acids). The intended phenotype of treatments was confirmed by significant changes in myotube diameter and immunofluorescent staining of structural proteins. We quantified the mRNA-level regulation of the full expressed Igf and Igfbp gene complement across a post-treatment time course, along with marker genes for muscle structural protein synthesis, as well as muscle breakdown, via the ubiquitin-proteasome and autophagy systems. Our results highlight complex, non-overlapping responses of Igfbp family members to the different treatments, suggesting that the profile of expressed Igfbps is differentially regulated by distinct signals promoting similar muscle remodelling phenotypes. We also demonstrate divergent regulation of salmonid-specific gene duplicates of igfbp5b1 and igfbp5b2 under distinct catabolic and anabolic conditions. Overall, this study increases our understanding of the regulation of Igfbp genes in response to signals that promote remodelling of skeletal muscle.PostprintPeer reviewe

Strategies for GHG mitigation in Mediterranean cropping systems. A review

In this review we aimed to synthetize and analyze the most promising GHGs mitigation strategies for Mediterranean cropping systems. A description of most relevant measures, based on the best crop choice and management by farmers (i.e., agronomical practices), was firstly carried out. Many of these measures can be also efficient in other climatic regions, but here we provide particular results and discussion of their efficiencies for Mediterranean cropping systems. An integrated assessment of management practices on mitigating each component of the global warming potential (N2O and CH4 emissions and C sequestration) of production systems considering potential side-effects of their implementation allowed us to propose the best strategies to abate GHG emissions, while sustaining crop yields and mitigating other sources of environmental pollution (e.g. nitrate leaching and ammonia volatilization)

Pericardial and myocardial involvement after SARS-CoV-2 infection: a cross-sectional descriptive study in healthcare workers

[ES] Introducción y objetivos Las secuelas cardiacas tras la infección por SARS-CoV-2 todavía están poco documentadas. Se realizó un estudio transversal en trabajadores sanitarios para estudiar la prevalencia de afección pericárdica y miocárdica tras la infección por SARS-CoV-2. Métodos Se estudió a 139 trabajadores sanitarios con infección previa confirmada por SARS-CoV-2. Los participantes se sometieron a evaluación clínica, electrocardiograma, laboratorio, incluido el perfil de células inmunitarias, y resonancia magnética cardiaca (RMC). El diagnóstico clínico de pericarditis se realizó ante la presencia de los criterios clásicos y el diagnóstico clínico de miocarditis ante la presencia de al menos 2 criterios de RMC. Resultados La mediana de edad fue de 52 (41–57) años, el 71,9% eran mujeres, y el 16,5% había sido hospitalizado previamente por neumonía por COVID-19. En la evaluación (10,4 [9,3–11,0] semanas después de los síntomas de infección), todos los participantes presentaban estabilidad hemodinámica. El 41,7% presentaba dolor torácico, disnea o palpitaciones; el 49,6%, alteraciones electrocardiográficas; el 7,9%, elevación de NT-proBNP; el 0,7%, elevación de troponina; y el 60,4%, alteraciones en la RMC. Un total de 30,9% de participantes cumplieron los criterios clínicos establecidos de pericarditis o miocarditis: pericarditis aislada en el 5,8%, miopericarditis en el 7,9% y miocarditis aislada en el 17,3%. La mayoría de los participantes (73,2%) mostraron recuentos de células inmunitarias alterados en sangre; en particular diminución de eosinófilos (27,3%; p < 0,001) y aumento del número de células T citotóxicas (17,3%; p < 0,001). La sospecha clínica de pericarditis se asoció (p < 0,005) particularmente con un elevado número de células T citotóxicas y recuento de eosinófilos disminuidos; mientras que los participantes con sospecha clínica de miopericarditis o miocarditis tenían recuentos de neutrófilos, células natural killer y células plasmáticas más bajos (p < 0,05). Conclusiones La afección pericárdica y miocárdica con estabilidad hemodinámica es frecuente después de la infección por SARS-CoV-2 y se asocia con perfiles de células inmunitarias específicas.[EN] Introduction and objectives The cardiac sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection are still poorly documented. We conducted a cross-sectional study in healthcare workers to report evidence of pericardial and myocardial involvement after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods We studied 139 healthcare workers with confirmed past SARS-CoV-2 infection. Participants underwent clinical assessment, electrocardiography, and laboratory tests, including immune cell profiling and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). Clinically suspected pericarditis was diagnosed when classic criteria were present and clinically suspected myocarditis was based on the combination of at least 2 CMR criteria. Results Median age was 52 (41-57) years, 71.9% were women, and 16.5% were previously hospitalized for COVID-19 pneumonia. On examination (10.4 [9.3-11.0] weeks after infection-like symptoms), participants showed hemodynamic stability. Chest pain, dyspnea or palpitations were present in 41.7% participants, electrocardiographic abnormalities in 49.6%, NT-proBNP elevation in 7.9%, troponin in 0.7%, and CMR abnormalities in 60.4%. A total of 30.9% participants met criteria for either pericarditis and/or myocarditis: isolated pericarditis was diagnosed in 5.8%, myopericarditis in 7.9%, and isolated myocarditis in 17.3%. Most participants (73.2%) showed altered immune cell counts in blood, particularly decreased eosinophil (27.3%; P < .001) and increased cytotoxic T cell numbers (17.3%; P < .001). Clinically suspected pericarditis was associated (P < .005) with particularly elevated cytotoxic T cells and decreased eosinophil counts, while participants diagnosed with clinically suspected myopericarditis or myocarditis had lower (P < .05) neutrophil counts, natural killer-cells, and plasma cells. Conclusions Pericardial and myocardial involvement with clinical stability are frequent after SARS-CoV-2 infection and are associated with specific immune cell profiles.Este estudio contó con el apoyo de CIBERCV (CB16/11/00374) y CIBERONC (CB16/12/00400) y la subvención COV20/00386 del Instituto de Salud Carlos III y FEDER, Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, Madrid, España, y por GRS COVID 26/A/20 de la Gerencia Regional de Salud, Junta de Castilla y León, España.Peer reviewe

First Latin American clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus: Latin American Group for the Study of Lupus (GLADEL, Grupo Latino Americano de Estudio del Lupus)-Pan-American League of Associations of Rheumatology (PANLAR)

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a complex and heterogeneous autoimmune disease, represents a significant challenge for both diagnosis and treatment. Patients with SLE in Latin America face special problems that should be considered when therapeutic guidelines are developed. The objective of the study is to develop clinical practice guidelines for Latin American patients with lupus. Two independent teams (rheumatologists with experience in lupus management and methodologists) had an initial meeting in Panama City, Panama, in April 2016. They selected a list of questions for the clinical problems most commonly seen in Latin American patients with SLE. These were addressed with the best available evidence and summarised in a standardised format following the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach. All preliminary findings were discussed in a second face-to-face meeting in Washington, DC, in November 2016. As a result, nine organ/system sections are presented with the main findings; an 'overarching' treatment approach was added. Special emphasis was made on regional implementation issues. Best pharmacologic options were examined for musculoskeletal, mucocutaneous, kidney, cardiac, pulmonary, neuropsychiatric, haematological manifestations and the antiphospholipid syndrome. The roles of main therapeutic options (ie, glucocorticoids, antimalarials, immunosuppressant agents, therapeutic plasma exchange, belimumab, rituximab, abatacept, low-dose aspirin and anticoagulants) were summarised in each section. In all cases, benefits and harms, certainty of the evidence, values and preferences, feasibility, acceptability and equity issues were considered to produce a recommendation with special focus on ethnic and socioeconomic aspects. Guidelines for Latin American patients with lupus have been developed and could be used in similar settings.Fil: Pons Estel, Bernardo A..
