Characterization of a new Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) polyhedra mutant

In the very late phase of baculovirus infection, virions are occluded in a crystalline matrix called polyhedra, which is mainly composed of polyhedrin. This protein is highly conserved among baculoviruses and changes in its amino acid sequence may lead to mutant polyhedra. During the purification of an AcMNPV recombinant virus, a mutant virus was isolated. Structural and ultrastrutural analysis by light and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of insect cells infected with this mutant virus did not show polyhedra formation and differed from the wild-type infection by the presence of a proteinaceous mass dispersed in the cytoplasm and nucleus of the infected cells, which was confirmed by immunogold labelling to be polyhedrin. The polyhedrin gene was amplified by PCR and sequenced. The only change observed was the substitution of a G to a T at the nucleotide +352, which resulted in a Val to Phe change. A recombinant virus was constructed by transferring the mutant gene into a polyhedrin negative virus. The phenotype of this recombinant virus was the same as the mutant one, confirming that this single mutation alone was responsible for the mutant phenotype

Journals4Free : um novo portal de acesso a conteúdos de publicações periódicas em acesso aberto

O portal Journals4Free (http://www.journals4free.com), criado em novembro de 2011, é um diretório de publicações periódicas que disponibilizam os seus conteúdos, parcial ou completamente, em acesso aberto. Diferentemente de outros portais - como o DOAJ -, o J4F inclui também informação de periódicos cujos conteúdos têm algum período de embargo antes de ficarem disponíveis em acesso aberto e de periódicos que têm em acesso aberto apenas conteúdos de anos passados. Assim, encontram-se no J4F publicações em quatro tipos de situações: - publicações que disponibilizam o seu conteúdo em acesso aberto imediatamente após a publicação, sem adiamento ou período de embargo (periódicos de 'acesso aberto', no sentido restrito); - publicações que disponibilizam o seu conteúdo livremente apenas após um período de embargo (que pode variar de alguns meses a alguns anos); - publicações que mantêm em acesso aberto conteúdos de anos passados; - publicações que deixaram de ser publicadas mas cujos conteúdos estão em acesso aberto. O J4F regista neste momento mais de 6.000 títulos e tem como objetivo ser o mais completo portal no seu género a nível mundial até junho de 2012, com um número superior a 8.000 títulos. Além da listagem de periódicos, o J4F permite a pesquisa por assunto e ISSN e fornece possibilidades de limitação dos resultados, restringindo as pesquisas apenas aos periódicos indexados em algumas das mais importantes bases de dados internacionais (PubMed, Embase, Scopus e bases de dados do Institute for Scientific Information). Esta funcionalidade de limitação de resultados resulta do reconhecimento de que, numa época de grande expansão do número de periódicos em acesso aberto, total ou parcial, muitos têm a sua importância reconhecida internacionalmente pelas bases de dados de referência, enquanto outros tem pouco ou nenhum reconhecimento internacional.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

One World, One Health Challenge: The Holistic Understanding of Rickettsiosis Integrating Multi-Criteria Analysis Techniques and Spatial Statistics

Among the human diseases caused by etiological agents transmitted by ticks in Brazil, the most prevalent and public health interest is that one caused by species of Rickettsia—Spotted Fever (SF). We applied the concept “One World, One Health” to achieve a proper understanding of SF and determine risk scenarios for human infection by pathogenic Rickettsia in the state of Rio de Janeiro (RJ). Multi-criteria decision analysis and spatial statistics were performed on data encompassing epidemiology, health care, biotic determents, and socioeconomic and demographic variables. The construction of multi-criteria descriptors used 33 indicators ordered in 12 sub criteria of 5 major categories: public health, environmental health, acarology, veterinary health, and microbiology. SF happened nonrandomly in RJ and the risk was heterogeneous in the weight of indicators contribution mainly associated with the criteria acarology (35.11%), microbiology (33.25%), and veterinary medicine (23.96%). Spatially, and according to the PROMETHEE algorithm, ticks from Amblyomma sculptum class and dogs are determinants for the occurrence of human cases of SF in RJ. To define indicators of SF and plan health actions, the “One World, One Health” concept proved to be applicable at three levels: (i) the local or possible areas of infection, (ii) the population or municipality, and (iii) the ecosystem or state. The model of study is flexible according to the reality of the endemic areas and also demonstrates its applicability from a national to a local (home) scale

Age of autism diagnosis in Latin American and Caribbean countries

An earlier diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder might lead to an earlier intervention, yet knowledge and awareness of autism spectrum disorder in Latin America and Caribbean Countries are limited. A later autism spectrum disorder diagnosis has been associated with negative consequences, as it might imply later access to services. This study aims to identify factors associated with the age of autism spectrum disorder diagnosis as reported by 2520 caregivers of autistic children from six Latin America and Caribbean Countries. Results indicate that on average, caregivers were concerned about their child’s development by 22 months of age; however, the diagnosis was 24 months later. Current age of autistic individuals, better language abilities, and having public health coverage increased the age of diagnosis. On the contrary, the presence of medical comorbidities, severity level, and type of diagnosis decreased the age of diagnosis. The age of diagnosis of autistic individuals in Latin America and Caribbean Countries corresponded to the start of formal schooling despite a much earlier age of first noticed developmental concern, highlighting the need to reduce this age gap and increase children’s probability of benefiting from early intervention. Taken together, autism spectrum disorder personal/clinical characteristics and access to health service are the main determinants for the age of diagnosis. Lay abstract An earlier diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder might lead to earlier intervention. However, people living in Latin American and Caribbean countries do not have much knowledge about autism spectrum disorder symptoms. It has been suggested that the older a child is when diagnosed, the fewer opportunities he or she will have to receive services. We asked 2520 caregivers of autistic children in six different Latin America and Caribbean Countries, the child’s age when they noticed some developmental delays and their child’s age when they received their first autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. Results indicate that, on average, caregivers were concerned about their child’s development by 22 months of age; however, the diagnosis was received when the child was 46 months of age. In addition, older children with better language abilities and public health coverage (opposed to private health coverage) were diagnosed later. On the contrary, children with other medical problems and more severe behaviors received an earlier diagnosis. In our study, children were diagnosed around the time they entered formal schooling, delaying the access to early intervention programs. In summary, the characteristics of the autistic person and the type of health coverage influence the age of diagnosis in children living in Latin America and Caribbean Countries

Brazilian phonoaudiology telepractice before and during the COVID-19 pandemic

Purpose: to analyze the use of digital resources by Brazilian phonoaudiologists before and during the period of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: cross-sectional study carried out with a representative sample of Brazilian phonoaudiologists, with at least one year of practical experience. An online questionnaire consisting of 28 questions divided into eight sections was prepared. Data were analyzed and are reported as absolute and relative frequency regarding the variables: respondent’s age, highest degree and years of experience; weekly working hours; region of the country; type of service and area of expertise; use of digital means before and during the pandemic and willingness to use the same kind of resource after the pandemic. Results: telehealth technologies were used by 90% of phonoaudiologists in Brazil since before the COVID-19 pandemic. A change in the profile of technologies used was observed: after the pandemic, videoconferences gained more use in contact with patients compared to the pre-pandemic period even though contact via mobile phone and instant messaging applications are the most used, both before and during the pandemic. Conclusion: the study’s findings demonstrate that 90% of phonoaudiologists who answered the questionnaire in Brazil used and still make use of telehealth technologies to contact patients
