Evidences of changes in surface electrostatic charge distribution during stabilization of HPV16 virus-like particles

17 págs.; 6 figs. ; Open Access funded by Creative Commons Atribution Licence 4.0The stabilization of human papillomavirus type 16 virus-like particles has been examined by means of different techniques including dynamic and static light scattering, transmission electron microscopy and electrophoretic mobility. All these techniques provide different and often complementary perspectives about the aggregation process and generation of stabilized virus-like particles after a period of time of 48 hours at a temperature of 298 K. Interestingly, static light scattering results point towards a clear colloidal instability in the initial systems, as suggested by a negative value of the second virial coefficient. This is likely related to small repulsive electrostatic interactions among the particles, and in agreement with relatively small absolute values of the electrophoretic mobility and, hence, of the net surface charges. At this initial stage the small repulsive interactions are not able to compensate binding interactions, which tend to aggregate the particles. As time proceeds, an increase of the size of the particles is accompanied by strong increases, in absolute values, of the electrophoretic mobility and net surface charge, suggesting enhanced repulsive electrostatic interactions and, consequently, a stabilized colloidal system. These results show that electrophoretic mobility is a useful methodology that can be applied to screen the stabilization factors for virus-like particles during vaccine development.This research work was supported by Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO), Project MAT2012-36341, and by the CSIC, Project PIE201360E097.

Compromising between European and US allergen immunotherapy schools: Discussions from GUIMIT, the Mexican immunotherapy guidelines

Background: Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) has a longstanding history and still remains the only disease-changing treatment for allergic rhinitis and asthma. Over the years 2 different schools have developed their strategies: the United States (US) and the European. Allergen extracts available in these regions are adapted to local practice. In other parts of the world, extracts from both regions and local ones are commercialized, as in Mexico. Here, local experts developed a national AIT guideline (GUIMIT 2019) searching for compromises between both schools. Methods: Using ADAPTE methodology for transculturizing guidelines and AGREE-II for evaluating guideline quality, GUIMIT selected 3 high-quality Main Reference Guidelines (MRGs): the European Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (EAACI) guideines, the S2k guideline of various German-speaking medical societies (2014), and the US Practice Parameters on Allergen Immunotherapy 2011. We formulated clinical questions and based responses on the fused evidence available in the MRGs, combined with local possibilities, patient's preference, and costs. We came across several issues on which the MRGs disagreed. These are presented here along with arguments of GUIMIT members to resolve them. GUIMIT (for a complete English version, see Supplementary data) concluded the following: Results: Related to the diagnosis of IgE-mediated respiratory allergy, apart from skin prick testing complementary tests (challenges, in vitro testing and molecular such as species-specific allergens) might be useful in selected cases to inform AIT composition. AIT is indicated in allergic rhinitis and suggested in allergic asthma (once controlled) and IgE-mediated atopic dermatitis. Concerning the correct subcutaneous AIT dose for compounding vials according to the US school: dosing tables and formula are given; up to 4 non-related allergens can be mixed, refraining from mixing high with low protease extracts. When using European extracts: the manufacturer's indications should be followed; in multi-allergic patients 2 simultaneous injections can be given (100% consensus); mixing is discouraged. In Mexico only allergoid tablets are available; based on doses used in all sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) publications referenced in MRGs, GUIMIT suggests a probable effective dose related to subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) might be: 50–200% of the monthly SCIT dose given daily, maximum mixing 4 allergens. Also, a table with practical suggestions on non-evidence-existing issues, developed with a simplified Delphi method, is added. Finally, dissemination and implementation of guidelines is briefly discussed, explaining how we used online tools for this in Mexico. Conclusions: Countries where European and American AIT extracts are available should adjust AIT according to which school is followed

Marine Biodiversity in the Caribbean: Regional Estimates and Distribution Patterns

This paper provides an analysis of the distribution patterns of marine biodiversity and summarizes the major activities of the Census of Marine Life program in the Caribbean region. The coastal Caribbean region is a large marine ecosystem (LME) characterized by coral reefs, mangroves, and seagrasses, but including other environments, such as sandy beaches and rocky shores. These tropical ecosystems incorporate a high diversity of associated flora and fauna, and the nations that border the Caribbean collectively encompass a major global marine biodiversity hot spot. We analyze the state of knowledge of marine biodiversity based on the geographic distribution of georeferenced species records and regional taxonomic lists. A total of 12,046 marine species are reported in this paper for the Caribbean region. These include representatives from 31 animal phyla, two plant phyla, one group of Chromista, and three groups of Protoctista. Sampling effort has been greatest in shallow, nearshore waters, where there is relatively good coverage of species records; offshore and deep environments have been less studied. Additionally, we found that the currently accepted classification of marine ecoregions of the Caribbean did not apply for the benthic distributions of five relatively well known taxonomic groups. Coastal species richness tends to concentrate along the Antillean arc (Cuba to the southernmost Antilles) and the northern coast of South America (Venezuela – Colombia), while no pattern can be observed in the deep sea with the available data. Several factors make it impossible to determine the extent to which these distribution patterns accurately reflect the true situation for marine biodiversity in general: (1) highly localized concentrations of collecting effort and a lack of collecting in many areas and ecosystems, (2) high variability among collecting methods, (3) limited taxonomic expertise for many groups, and (4) differing levels of activity in the study of different taxa

Taking the pulse of Earth's tropical forests using networks of highly distributed plots

Tropical forests are the most diverse and productive ecosystems on Earth. While better understanding of these forests is critical for our collective future, until quite recently efforts to measure and monitor them have been largely disconnected. Networking is essential to discover the answers to questions that transcend borders and the horizons of funding agencies. Here we show how a global community is responding to the challenges of tropical ecosystem research with diverse teams measuring forests tree-by-tree in thousands of long-term plots. We review the major scientific discoveries of this work and show how this process is changing tropical forest science. Our core approach involves linking long-term grassroots initiatives with standardized protocols and data management to generate robust scaled-up results. By connecting tropical researchers and elevating their status, our Social Research Network model recognises the key role of the data originator in scientific discovery. Conceived in 1999 with RAINFOR (South America), our permanent plot networks have been adapted to Africa (AfriTRON) and Southeast Asia (T-FORCES) and widely emulated worldwide. Now these multiple initiatives are integrated via ForestPlots.net cyber-infrastructure, linking colleagues from 54 countries across 24 plot networks. Collectively these are transforming understanding of tropical forests and their biospheric role. Together we have discovered how, where and why forest carbon and biodiversity are responding to climate change, and how they feedback on it. This long-term pan-tropical collaboration has revealed a large long-term carbon sink and its trends, as well as making clear which drivers are most important, which forest processes are affected, where they are changing, what the lags are, and the likely future responses of tropical forests as the climate continues to change. By leveraging a remarkably old technology, plot networks are sparking a very modern revolution in tropical forest science. In the future, humanity can benefit greatly by nurturing the grassroots communities now collectively capable of generating unique, long-term understanding of Earth's most precious forests.Additional co-authors: Susan Laurance, William Laurance, Francoise Yoko Ishida, Andrew Marshall, Catherine Waite, Hannsjoerg Woell, Jean-Francois Bastin, Marijn Bauters, Hans Beeckman, Pfascal Boeckx, Jan Bogaert, Charles De Canniere, Thales de Haulleville, Jean-Louis Doucet, Olivier Hardy, Wannes Hubau, Elizabeth Kearsley, Hans Verbeeck, Jason Vleminckx, Steven W.

Mortalidad por peritonitis secundaria en el Hospital General Docente ¨Dr. Agostinho Neto¨ de Guantánamo. Factores determinantes

Introduction: the factors that determine the prognosis of the patient with peritonitis are not always known in the intensive care unit. Objective: to determine the determinants of mortality due to secondary peritonitis in this unit at the Hospital "Dr. Agostinho Neto during the years 2014 - 2016. Method: a prospective, longitudinal, and analytical study was conducted of all the patients admitted to the ICU for secondary peritonitis in the years 2014 - 2016 (n = 70), which were grouped according to graduates alive or deceased. The variables most related to the probability of the patient's death and the most frequent in the deceased were specified. The absolute risk (AR) of each variable was calculated. Results: the most frequent factors were: fever (n = 53), systemic inflammatory response syndrome (n = 51) and left leukocytosis / deviation (n = 51); the factors most likely to determine death were multiorgan failure (RA 17.8), fecaloid peritoneal fluid (RA 7.8) and septic shock (RA 7.3). Conclusion: The factors that determine mortality due to secondary peritonitis: diffuse peritonitis, presence of multi-organ failure, hypoxemia ≤ 85 mmHg / or Sp02 ≤ 90%, age ≥ 60 years, intra-abdominal pressure after surgery ≥ 21 cm H2O (15 mmHg) , symptoms ≥ 24 h before surgery, septic shock, fecaloid peritoneal fluid, colonic origin of peritonitis.Introducción: en la unidad de cuidados intensivos no siempre se conocen los factores que determinan el pronóstico del paciente con peritonitis. Objetivo: precisar los factores determinantes de la mortalidad por peritonitis secundaria en esta unidad en el Hospital “Dr. Agostinho Netoˮ durante los años 2014 – 2016. Método: se realizó un estudio analítico prospectivo, y longitudinal, de todos los pacientes ingresadosen la citada UCI por peritonitis secundaria en los años 2014 – 2016 (n = 70), los que se agruparon según fueran egresados vivos o fallecidos. Se precisaron las variables más relacionadas con la probabilidad de que el paciente falleciera y las más frecuentes en los fallecidos. Se calculó el riesgo absoluto (RA) de cada variable. Resultados: los factores más frecuentes fueron: fiebre (n=53), Síndrome respuesta inflamatoria sistémica (n=51) y la leucocitosis/desviación izquierda (n=51); los factores con mayor probabilidad de determinar la muerte fueron: fallo multiorgánico (RA 17.8), fluido peritoneal fecaloideo (RA 7.8) y el shock séptico (RA 7.3). Conclusión: Los factores que determinan la mortalidad por peritonitis secundaria son: la peritonitis difusa, presencia de fallo multiorgánico, hipoxemia ≤ 85 mmHg y/o Sp02 ≤ 90%, edad ≥ 60 años, presión intrabdominal poscirugía ≥ 21 cm H2O (15 mmHg), síntomas ≥ 24 h antes de cirugía, shock séptico, fluido peritoneal fecaloideo, origen colónico de la peritonitis
