Estudio de la estabilidad física, propiedades reológicas y microestructura de sistemas Aerosil 200/agua. Influencia de un tensioactivo no iónico

Se han estudiado las propiedades reológicas, la estabilidad física y la microestructura de suspensiones de una sílice hidrofílica (Aerosil 200) en agua con potencial aplicación como fase continua de emulsiones ecológicas. Además, se analizó la influencia de la adición de Amidet N, un tensioactivo no iónico derivado del aceite de Colza, en las propiedades viscoelásticas y la microestructura de las dispersiones. Se muestran diferentes comportamientos reológicos dependiendo de la concentración de Aerosil 200 en los sistemas binarios. Existe un aumento importante del carácter gel del 8% al 9% de Aerosil 200 mejorando la estabilidad física. Este cambio está relacionado con el grado de interacción de las partículas, como se muestra en la microscopia electrónica de barrido (Cryo-SEM). La adición de Amidet N a la suspensión provocó un incremento de los módulos viscosos y elásticos mostrándose una estructura más compacta. El sistema que contiene 6% de Aerosil 200 y 3% de Amidet N mostró adecuadas propiedades reológicas para su uso como fase continua de emulsiones que respetan el medio ambiente. Finalmente, cabe destacar el interés del estudio de este tipo de sistemas intermedios como punto de partida para el desarrollo de emulsiones.Aerosil 200/water dispersions and Aerosil 200/water/Amidet N were studied by means of rheological, microstructural and multiple light scattering techniques. These systems can find application as continuous phase in emulsions. Rheological tests such as flow curve and small amplitude oscillatory shear tests detected an abrupt change of behaviour related to microstructural interaction grade reflected through the Cryo-SEM micrographs. The most concentrated systems turned out to be more physically stable. An increase of viscoelastic properties was detected as a consequence of addition of Amilet N, which led to more compact microstructure. Finally, it is worth noting the interest of studying this type of intermediate systems as a starting point for the development of emulsions.Plan Propio de la Universidad de Sevilla Proyecto: 2017/00000962Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (España) / FEDER, UE CTQ2015-70700-

Methodology for development of ecological emulsions formulated with green solvents or essential oils

Las emulsiones ecológicas se formulan y preparan idealmente siguiendo los principios del desarrollo sostenible o la química verde. Estas emulsiones verdes poseen un gran número de aplicaciones, ya que por ejemplo son utilizadas en la industria alimentaria. La industria química está mostrando especial atención a la sustitución de los disolventes sintéticos por disolventes ecológicos en el desarrollo de emulsiones aceite-en-agua para usos agroquímicos, como pinturas, tintas de impresión, desengrasantes y como limpiadores. Los disolventes ecológicos se utilizan cada vez más como consecuencia de la prohibición de algunos disolventes orgánicos tradicionales y sintéticos. Por este motivo, los científicos e ingenieros responsables del desarrollo de productos están afrontando el desafío de formular emulsiones que contienen nuevos disolventes, tensioactivos o aditivos obtenidos a partir de fuentes renovables y con buenas propiedades ecológicas. En este capítulo se desarrolla una metodología para el desarrollo de emulsiones ecológicas con componentes obtenidos a partir de fuentes renovables, de nula toxicidad y biodegradables como una alternativa sostenible a aquellos productos que contienen disolventes orgánicos tradicionales.Green emulsions are formulated and ideally prepared under the principles of the so-called sustainable development or green chemistry and find a great variety of applications. These systems are increasingly used by the food industry insofar as there is an increasing tendency to reduce the number of synthetic additives and to increase the use of biomaterials and ingredients with functional properties. For similar reasons they are more and more used by the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. The chemical industry is also paying attention to the substitution of synthetic solvents by green solvents in water-based emulsions used as agrochemicals, paints, printing inks, fat removers and all-purpose cleaners. Green solvents are increasingly used since many synthetic solvents have been banned due to their carcinogenic or toxic properties and to their poor biodegradability. For this reason, scientists and engineers responsible for product development face the challenge to formulate emulsions containing new solvents, surfactants and additives obtained from renewable raw materials and exhibiting enhanced ecological properties.Plan Propio de la Universidad de Sevilla Proyecto: 2017/00000962Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (España) / FEDER, UE CTQ2011-27371Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (España) / FEDER, UE CTQ2015-7070

Association Between Preexisting Versus Newly Identified Atrial Fibrillation and Outcomes of Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) may exist before or occur early in the course of pulmonary embolism (PE). We determined the PE outcomes based on the presence and timing of AF. Methods and Results Using the data from a multicenter PE registry, we identified 3 groups: (1) those with preexisting AF, (2) patients with new AF within 2 days from acute PE (incident AF), and (3) patients without AF. We assessed the 90-day and 1-year risk of mortality and stroke in patients with AF, compared with those without AF (reference group). Among 16 497 patients with PE, 792 had preexisting AF. These patients had increased odds of 90-day all-cause (odds ratio [OR], 2.81; 95% CI, 2.33-3.38) and PE-related mortality (OR, 2.38; 95% CI, 1.37-4.14) and increased 1-year hazard for ischemic stroke (hazard ratio, 5.48; 95% CI, 3.10-9.69) compared with those without AF. After multivariable adjustment, preexisting AF was associated with significantly increased odds of all-cause mortality (OR, 1.91; 95% CI, 1.57-2.32) but not PE-related mortality (OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 0.85-2.66). Among 16 497 patients with PE, 445 developed new incident AF within 2 days of acute PE. Incident AF was associated with increased odds of 90-day all-cause (OR, 2.28; 95% CI, 1.75-2.97) and PE-related (OR, 3.64; 95% CI, 2.01-6.59) mortality but not stroke. Findings were similar in multivariable analyses. Conclusions In patients with acute symptomatic PE, both preexisting AF and incident AF predict adverse clinical outcomes. The type of adverse outcomes may differ depending on the timing of AF onset.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Dendritic cell deficiencies persist seven months after SARS-CoV-2 infection

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-2 infection induces an exacerbated inflammation driven by innate immunity components. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a key role in the defense against viral infections, for instance plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs), have the capacity to produce vast amounts of interferon-alpha (IFN-α). In COVID-19 there is a deficit in DC numbers and IFN-α production, which has been associated with disease severity. In this work, we described that in addition to the DC deficiency, several DC activation and homing markers were altered in acute COVID-19 patients, which were associated with multiple inflammatory markers. Remarkably, previously hospitalized and nonhospitalized patients remained with decreased numbers of CD1c+ myeloid DCs and pDCs seven months after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Moreover, the expression of DC markers such as CD86 and CD4 were only restored in previously nonhospitalized patients, while no restoration of integrin β7 and indoleamine 2,3-dyoxigenase (IDO) levels were observed. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the immunological sequelae of COVID-19

Reducing the environmental impact of surgery on a global scale: systematic review and co-prioritization with healthcare workers in 132 countries

Abstract Background Healthcare cannot achieve net-zero carbon without addressing operating theatres. The aim of this study was to prioritize feasible interventions to reduce the environmental impact of operating theatres. Methods This study adopted a four-phase Delphi consensus co-prioritization methodology. In phase 1, a systematic review of published interventions and global consultation of perioperative healthcare professionals were used to longlist interventions. In phase 2, iterative thematic analysis consolidated comparable interventions into a shortlist. In phase 3, the shortlist was co-prioritized based on patient and clinician views on acceptability, feasibility, and safety. In phase 4, ranked lists of interventions were presented by their relevance to high-income countries and low–middle-income countries. Results In phase 1, 43 interventions were identified, which had low uptake in practice according to 3042 professionals globally. In phase 2, a shortlist of 15 intervention domains was generated. In phase 3, interventions were deemed acceptable for more than 90 per cent of patients except for reducing general anaesthesia (84 per cent) and re-sterilization of ‘single-use’ consumables (86 per cent). In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for high-income countries were: introducing recycling; reducing use of anaesthetic gases; and appropriate clinical waste processing. In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for low–middle-income countries were: introducing reusable surgical devices; reducing use of consumables; and reducing the use of general anaesthesia. Conclusion This is a step toward environmentally sustainable operating environments with actionable interventions applicable to both high– and low–middle–income countries

Novel MLH1 duplication identified in Colombian families with Lynch syndrome.

PURPOSE: Lynch syndrome accounts for 2-4% of all colorectal cancer, and is mainly caused by germline mutations in the DNA mismatch repair genes. Our aim was to characterize the genetic mutation responsible for Lynch syndrome in an extensive Colombian family and to study its prevalence in Antioquia. METHODS: A Lynch syndrome family fulfilling Amsterdam criteria II was studied by immunohistochemistry and by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA). Results were confirmed by additional independent MLPA, Southern blotting, and sequencing. RESULTS: Index case tumor immunohistochemistry results were MLH1-, MSH2+, MSH6+, and PMS2-. MLPA analysis detected a duplication of exons 12 and 13 of MLH1. This mutation was confirmed and characterized precisely to span 4219 base pairs. Duplication screening in this family led to the identification of six additional carriers and 13 noncarriers. We also screened 123 early-onset independent colorectal cancer cases from the same area and identified an additional unrelated carrier. CONCLUSION: A novel duplication of exons 12 and 13 of the MLH1 gene was detected in two independent Lynch syndrome families from Colombia. A putative founder effect and prescreening Lynch syndrome Antioquia families for this specific mutation before thorough mismatch repair mutational screening could be suggested
