Bipolar multiplex families have an increased burden of common risk variants for psychiatric disorders.

Multiplex families with a high prevalence of a psychiatric disorder are often examined to identify rare genetic variants with large effect sizes. In the present study, we analysed whether the risk for bipolar disorder (BD) in BD multiplex families is influenced by common genetic variants. Furthermore, we investigated whether this risk is conferred mainly by BD-specific risk variants or by variants also associated with the susceptibility to schizophrenia or major depression. In total, 395 individuals from 33 Andalusian BD multiplex families (166 BD, 78 major depressive disorder, 151 unaffected) as well as 438 subjects from an independent, BD case/control cohort (161 unrelated BD, 277 unrelated controls) were analysed. Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for BD, schizophrenia (SCZ), and major depression were calculated and compared between the cohorts. Both the familial BD cases and unaffected family members had higher PRS for all three psychiatric disorders than the independent controls, with BD and SCZ being significant after correction for multiple testing, suggesting a high baseline risk for several psychiatric disorders in the families. Moreover, familial BD cases showed significantly higher BD PRS than unaffected family members and unrelated BD cases. A plausible hypothesis is that, in multiplex families with a general increase in risk for psychiatric disease, BD development is attributable to a high burden of common variants that confer a specific risk for BD. The present analyses demonstrated that common genetic risk variants for psychiatric disorders are likely to contribute to the high incidence of affective psychiatric disorders in the multiplex families. However, the PRS explained only part of the observed phenotypic variance, and rare variants might have also contributed to disease development

Positive associations among rare species and their persistence in ecological assemblages

According to the competitive exclusion principle, species with low competitive abilities should be excluded by more efficient competitors; yet, they generally remain as rare species. Here, we describe the positive and negative spatial association networks of 326 disparate assemblages, showing a general organization pattern that simultaneously supports the primacy of competition and the persistence of rare species. Abundant species monopolize negative associations in about 90% of the assemblages. On the other hand, rare species are mostly involved in positive associations, forming small network modules. Simulations suggest that positive interactions among rare species and microhabitat preferences are the most probable mechanisms underpinning this pattern and rare species persistence. The consistent results across taxa and geography suggest a general explanation for the maintenance of biodiversity in competitive environments

Proyecto Verbum

Se desarrolla un proyecto de innovación educativa que pretende incrementar el número de lecturas efectuadas por el alumnado tomando como referencia los años anteriores, alcanzando un grado de disfrute de la propia actividad de leer. Para motivar el hábito de leer se procura vincular los contenidos de los textos a leer a los intereses y preocupaciones del alumnado, proporcionando un listado y son ellos mismos quines elige sus lecturas. Se trata de concienciar ala alumnado de que la lectura y el buen uso de la lengua son instrumentos fundamentales para su desarrollo personal y educativo. El proyecto pretende a su vez implicar a los familiares en el proceso educativo de sus hijos o hijas, abriendo nuevas vías de comunicación entre las personas y propiciando encuentros entre lectores, ya sean presenciales o a través de la red. A través de las Nuevas Tecnologías se pretende ampliar las posibilidades técnicas en las actividades lectoras. El profesorado presenta los argumentos, acciones o personajes de los libros de lectura a elegir para que elija el que prefiera. El alumnado una vez leído el libro elegido, realiza un comentario del texto e invita a sus compañeros y compañeras a leerlo si así lo cree conveniente a modo de consejo. Los alumnos y alumnas que han leído un mismo libro preparan en grupo una exposición ante el resto de la clase, del contenido del libro, de sus impresiones, valoraciones y estructura. El profesorado de las diferentes áreas advierte al alumnado los contenidos relacionados en la lectura con su materia y les proporciona información adicional que les permita sacar el máximo provecho de la lectura. En el centro se han desarrolla actividades extraescolares y complementarias como encuentros con escritores, exposiciones sobre autores y obras, recitales de poesía, lecturas dramatizadas. La valoración general del proyecto tanto por parte del profesorado como del alumnado se es positiva, a pesar de las dificultades generadas.Castilla y LeónConsejería de Educación.

Active Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance and Carbapenemase-Encoding Genes According to Sites of Care and Age Groups in Mexico: Results from the INVIFAR Network

We analyzed the antimicrobial resistance (AMR) data of 6519 clinical isolates of Escherichia coli (n = 3985), Klebsiella pneumoniae (n = 775), Acinetobacter baumannii (n = 163), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 781), Enterococcus faecium (n = 124), and Staphylococcus aureus (n = 691) from 43 centers in Mexico. AMR assays were performed using commercial microdilution systems (37/43) and the disk diffusion susceptibility method (6/43). The presence of carbapenemase-encoding genes was assessed using PCR. Data from centers regarding site of care, patient age, and clinical specimen were collected. According to the site of care, the highest AMR was observed in E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and P. aeruginosa isolates from ICU patients. In contrast, in A. baumannii, higher AMR was observed in isolates from hospitalized non-ICU patients. According to age group, the highest AMR was observed in the ≥60 years age group for E. coli, E. faecium, and S. aureus, and in the 19–59 years age group for A. baumannii and P. aeruginosa. According to clinical specimen type, a higher AMR was observed in E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and P. aeruginosa isolates from blood specimens. The most frequently detected carbapenemase-encoding gene in E. coli was blaNDM (84%)
