    oai:ojs2.jolcc.org:article/1The study aims to identify the subtitling strategies used in translating cultural words in the subtitle of Disney Animation Movie: Coco. This descriptive qualitative study employed the data in words, sentences, and logical arguments related to the topic. The data were English combined with Spanish subtitle as the source language and Indonesian subtitles as the target language. The theories used in the analyzing process and describing the analysis were the classification of cultural words by Newmark (1988:94-103) and the subtitling strategies based on Gottlieb's theory (1992:66). There were 100 cultural words found in the subtitles, which were divided into five classifications of cultural words, namely: Ecology (26%), Material Culture (22%), Social Culture (20%), Gesture and Habit (18%) and also Organization (14%). On the other hand, after the researcher grouped the cultural words, then the words were analyzed using the subtitling strategies theory of Gottlieb (1992), in which the subtitling strategies were divided into ten types: Transfer (41%), Imitation (14%), Transcription (14%), Paraphrase (7%), Expansion (7%), Deletion (4%), Condensation (3%), Dislocation (3%), Decimation (2%), and Resignation (2%). The dominant subtitling strategy in translating the cultural words is Transfer with 41 data. Based on the analysis result, within this mainly used Transfer strategy, the translator directly translated the text, word-to-word, so that the translation result in the subtitle becomes complete and accurate with its literal meaning according to the source language

    Tuberculosis (TB) still poses a global menace as one of the deadliest infectious diseases. A quarter of the human population is indeed latently infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. People with latent infection have a 5 to 10% lifetime risk of becoming ill with TB, representing a reservoir for TB active infection. This is a worrisome problem to overcome in the case of relapse; unfortunately, few drugs are effective against nonreplicating M. tuberculosis cells. Novel strategies to combat TB, including its latent form, are urgently needed. In response to the lack of new effective drugs and after screening about 500 original chemical molecules, we selected a compound, 11726172, that is endowed with potent antitubercular activity against M. tuberculosis both in vitro and in vivo and importantly also against dormant nonculturable bacilli. We also investigated the mechanism of action of 11726172 by applying a multidisciplinary approach, including transcriptomic, labeled metabolomic, biochemical, and microbiological procedures. Our results represent an important step forward in the development of a new antitubercular compound with a novel mechanism of action active against latent bacilli. IMPORTANCE The discontinuation of TB services due to COVID-19 causes concern about a future resurgence of TB, also considering that latent infection affects a high number of people worldwide. To combat this situation, the identification of antitubercular compounds targeting Mycobacterium tuberculosis through novel mechanisms of action is necessary. These compounds should be active against not only replicating bacteria cells but also nonreplicating cells to limit the reservoir of latently infected people on which the bacterium can rely to spread after reactivation

    Cancer data quality and harmonization in Europe: the experience of the BENCHISTA Project – international benchmarking of childhood cancer survival by stage

    IntroductionVariation in stage at diagnosis of childhood cancers (CC) may explain differences in survival rates observed across geographical regions. The BENCHISTA project aims to understand these differences and to encourage the application of the Toronto Staging Guidelines (TG) by Population-Based Cancer Registries (PBCRs) to the most common solid paediatric cancers.MethodsPBCRs within and outside Europe were invited to participate and identify all cases of Neuroblastoma, Wilms Tumour, Medulloblastoma, Ewing Sarcoma, Rhabdomyosarcoma and Osteosarcoma diagnosed in a consecutive three-year period (2014-2017) and apply TG at diagnosis. Other non-stage prognostic factors, treatment, progression/recurrence, and cause of death information were collected as optional variables. A minimum of three-year follow-up was required. To standardise TG application by PBCRs, on-line workshops led by six tumour-specific clinical experts were held. To understand the role of data availability and quality, a survey focused on data collection/sharing processes and a quality assurance exercise were generated. To support data harmonization and query resolution a dedicated email and a question-and-answers bank were created.Results67 PBCRs from 28 countries participated and provided a maximally de-personalized, patient-level dataset. For 26 PBCRs, data format and ethical approval obtained by the two sponsoring institutions (UCL and INT) was sufficient for data sharing. 41 participating PBCRs required a Data Transfer Agreement (DTA) to comply with data protection regulations. Due to heterogeneity found in legal aspects, 18 months were spent on finalizing the DTA. The data collection survey was answered by 68 respondents from 63 PBCRs; 44% of them confirmed the ability to re-consult a clinician in cases where stage ascertainment was difficult/uncertain. Of the total participating PBCRs, 75% completed the staging quality assurance exercise, with a median correct answer proportion of 92% [range: 70% (rhabdomyosarcoma) to 100% (Wilms tumour)].ConclusionDifferences in interpretation and processes required to harmonize general data protection regulations across countries were encountered causing delays in data transfer. Despite challenges, the BENCHISTA Project has established a large collaboration between PBCRs and clinicians to collect detailed and standardised TG at a population-level enhancing the understanding of the reasons for variation in overall survival rates for CC, stimulate research and improve national/regional child health plans

    Funder: European Society of Intensive Care Medicine; doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100013347Funder: Flemish Society for Critical Care NursesAbstract: Purpose: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are particularly susceptible to developing pressure injuries. Epidemiologic data is however unavailable. We aimed to provide an international picture of the extent of pressure injuries and factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries in adult ICU patients. Methods: International 1-day point-prevalence study; follow-up for outcome assessment until hospital discharge (maximum 12 weeks). Factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injury and hospital mortality were assessed by generalised linear mixed-effects regression analysis. Results: Data from 13,254 patients in 1117 ICUs (90 countries) revealed 6747 pressure injuries; 3997 (59.2%) were ICU-acquired. Overall prevalence was 26.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] 25.9–27.3). ICU-acquired prevalence was 16.2% (95% CI 15.6–16.8). Sacrum (37%) and heels (19.5%) were most affected. Factors independently associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries were older age, male sex, being underweight, emergency surgery, higher Simplified Acute Physiology Score II, Braden score 3 days, comorbidities (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, immunodeficiency), organ support (renal replacement, mechanical ventilation on ICU admission), and being in a low or lower-middle income-economy. Gradually increasing associations with mortality were identified for increasing severity of pressure injury: stage I (odds ratio [OR] 1.5; 95% CI 1.2–1.8), stage II (OR 1.6; 95% CI 1.4–1.9), and stage III or worse (OR 2.8; 95% CI 2.3–3.3). Conclusion: Pressure injuries are common in adult ICU patients. ICU-acquired pressure injuries are associated with mainly intrinsic factors and mortality. Optimal care standards, increased awareness, appropriate resource allocation, and further research into optimal prevention are pivotal to tackle this important patient safety threat

    International audienceA novel coumarin-based molecule, designed as a fluorescent surrogate of a thiacetazone-derived antitubercular agent, was quickly and easily synthesized from readily available starting materials. This small molecule, coined Coum-TAC, exhibited a combination of appropriate physicochemical and biological properties, including resistance toward hydrolysis and excellent antitubercular efficiency similar to that of well-known thiacetazone derivatives, as well as efficient covalent labeling of HadA, a relevant therapeutic target to combat Mycobacterium tuberculosis. More remarkably, Coum-TAC was successfully implemented as an imaging probe that is capable of labeling Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a selective manner, with an enrichment at the level of the poles, thus giving for the first time relevant insights about the polar localization of HadA in the mycobacteria
