Novel metabolite madeirone and neomarinone extracted from Streptomyces aculeoletus as marine antibiofilm and antifouling agents.

Introduction: Biofouling poses a significant economic threat to various marine industries, leading to financial losses that can reach billions of euros annually. This study highlights the urgent need for effective alternatives to traditional antifouling agents, particularly following the global ban on organotin compounds. Material and methods: Streptomyces aculeolatus PTM-346 was isolated from sediment samples on the shores of the Madeira Archipelago, Portugal. The crude extract was fractionated using silica flash chromatography and preparative HPLC, resulting in two isolated marinone compounds: madeirone (1), a novel marinone derivative discovered in this study, and neomarinone (2). The antifouling activities of these compounds were tested against five marine bacterial species and the larvae of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. Additionally, in silico and in vivo environmental toxicity evaluations of madeirone (1) and neomarinone (2) were conducted. Results: Madeirone (1) demonstrated significant antibiofilm efficacy, inhibiting Phaeobacter inhibens by up to 66%, Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus by up to 60%, and Cobetia marina by up to 40%. Neomarinone (2) also exhibited substantial antibiofilm activity, with inhibition rates of up to 41% against P. inhibens, 40% against Pseudo-oceanicola batsensis, 56% against M. hydrocarbonoclasticus, 46% against C. marina, and 40% against Micrococcus luteus. The growth inhibition activity at the same concentrations of these compounds remained below 20% for the respective bacteria, highlighting their effectiveness as potent antibiofilm agents without significantly affecting bacterial viability. Additionally, both compounds showed potent effects against the settlement of Mytilus galloprovincialis larvae, with EC50 values of 1.76 µg/mL and 0.12 µg/mL for compounds (1) and (2), respectively, without impairing the viability of the targeted macrofouling species. In silico toxicity predictions and in vivo toxicity assays both support their potential for further development as antifouling agents. Conclusion: The newly discovered metabolite madeirone (1) and neomarinone (2) effectively inhibit both micro- and macrofouling. This distinct capability sets them apart from existing commercial antifouling agents and positions them as promising candidates for biofouling prevention. Consequently, these compounds represent a viable and environmentally friendly alternative for incorporation into paints, primers, varnishes, and sealants, offering significant advantages over traditional copper-based compounds.

Donation and Equitable Access to Organ, Tissue, and Cell Transplants: A Brazilian Perspective on the Strategy and Plan of Action 2019-2030.

OBJECTIVE: To position the Brazilian Transplant System within the context of the 4 Strategic Lines of Action proposed by the Pan-American Health Organization. METHOD: A specialist analysis was conducted through comparative analyses of the 4 Strategic Lines of Action, objectives, and indicators outlined in the Action Plan, along with the donation and transplantation system in accordance with Brazilian transplantation law. Subsequent to an in-depth review of the document issued by the health authority, a series of meetings involving 8 specialists in organ donation and transplantation were conducted. During these meetings, discussions were carried out with the objective of numerically interpreting each strategy presented in the document, and recommendations constructed. RESULTS: Four strategies were evaluated and only 2 of them the third (81,3%) and the fourth (90%) do not achieve the indicators to complete the objective related to equitable access to organ, tissue, and cell transplants in Brazil. CONCLUSION: The recommendations developed carry importance, as they are innovative and contribute to the establishment of priorities when shaping public policies. The report not only highlights indicators that were not satisfactorily met but also provides insights into the recommendations formulated to improve those indicators that have already been achieved and to work toward achieving those that have not yet been realized. Additionally, these recommendations can justify actions and establish priorities for research efforts in the field.

A Multiplex Molecular Cell-Based Sensor to Detect Ligands of PPARs: An Optimized Tool for Drug Discovery in Cyanobacteria.

Cyanobacteria produce a wealth of secondary metabolites. Since these organisms attach fatty acids into molecules in unprecedented ways, cyanobacteria can serve as a novel source for bioactive compounds acting as ligands for Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPAR). PPARs (PPARα, PPARß/δ and PPARγ) are ligand-activated nuclear receptors, involved in the regulation of various metabolic and cellular processes, thus serving as potential drug targets for a variety of pathologies. Yet, given that PPARs' agonists can have pan-, dual- or isoform-specific action, some controversy has been raised over currently approved drugs and their side effects, highlighting the need for novel molecules. Here, we expand and validate a cell-based PPAR transactivation activity biosensor, and test it in a screening campaign to guide drug discovery. Biosensor upgrades included the use of different reporter genes to increase signal intensity and stability, a different promoter to modulate reporter gene expression, and multiplexing to improve efficiency. Sensor's limit of detection (LOD) ranged from 0.36-0.89 nM in uniplex and 0.89-1.35 nM in multiplex mode. In triplex mode, the sensor's feature screening, a total of 848 fractions of 96 cyanobacteria extracts were screened. Hits were confirmed in multiplex mode and in uniplex mode, yielding one strain detected to have action on PPARα and three strains to have dual action on PPARα and -ß.

Relationship between leadership coaching and nurses' resilience in hospital environments.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between leadership coaching and nurses' resilience in hospital environments. METHOD: This is a cross-sectional study, carried out with nurses, nursing assistants and technicians. Nurses answered the Nurse Self-Perception Questionnaire in Leadership Exercise Questionnaire (QUAPEEL) and the Connor-Davidson Scale for Brazil-25 (CD-RISC-25BRASIL). Nursing technicians/assistants answered the Nursing Technician and Assistant Perception in Leadership Exercise Questionnaire (QUEPTAEEL). Student's t test and Pearson's correlation were used (p ≤ 0.05). RESULTS: There was a statistically significant difference between nurses' self-perception and nursing technicians/assistants' hetero-perception in coaching leadership exercise for the total score (p = 0.002) and in the "Give and receive feedback" (p < 0.001), "Delegate power and exert influence" (p < 0.001) and "Support the team so that the organizational results are reached" (p = 0.020) domains. There was a statistically significant correlation between all the Nurse Self-Perception Questionnaire in Leadership Exercise Questionnaire Coaching and Resilience domains. CONCLUSION: Resilience was positively related to nurses' self-perception of coaching leadership.

The effects of COVID-19 on female and male bike sharing users: Insights from Lisbon's GIRA.

Women are among the groups most affected by the pandemic as they are more likely to be dependent on public transport (PT), which was heavily restricted during COVID-19. Thus, there is a need to consider transport alternatives such as bike sharing that can ensure their mobility needs. By conducting a survey to the bike sharing system (BSS) of Lisbon, we explored differences in travel behaviour and attitudes between female and male users before and during COVID-19. We found men to have higher bike ownership rates, a higher modal share of personal bicycle regarding commuting, and more likely to use their own bikes if BSS was unavailable. Conversely, women more frequently combined BSS with PT and were more likely to use PT if BSS was unavailable. Moreover, while men were using BSS more frequently than women pre-pandemic, during COVID-19 women are using BSS as frequently as men. Our research provides evidence on the potential role of BSS as a transport alternative during pandemics, inducing women to take up cycling who otherwise would not cycle, therefore, potentially decreasing the current cycling gender gap. Findings suggest that introducing family/friend discounts and promoting BSS for exercising may increase the share of female cyclists.

Construção e validação de um instrumento de avaliação de cursos na modalidade a distância / Construction and validation of an evaluation instrument for distance learning courses / Construcción y validación de un instrumento de evaluación para cursos a distancia

Objetivos: construir, validar e aplicar um instrumento de avaliação de cursos de nível superior ofertados na modalidade a distância. Método: estudo metodológico. Para a elaboração do instrumento realizou-se revisão de literatura. A validação do pré-teste se deu pela triangulação de especialistas e a do conteúdo pelo Método Delphi. Para a análise da confiabilidade adotou-se a análise fatorial confirmatória e o coeficiente de Correlação de Spearman a partir da aplicação em dois cursos a distância. Resultados: a partir de onze referenciais (nacionais e internacionais) foram estratificados 70 critérios e agrupados em seis categorias que foram modificados na triangulação. Dois ciclos compuseram a Técnica Delphi com 17 especialistas inicialmente e alfa de Cronbach de 0,80 na segunda rodada. Na análise fatorial confirmatória, realizada com 221 participantes, inicialmente, não gerou índices satisfatórios, resultando na exclusão de questões. O novo modelo ajustado, produziu índices próximos aos ideais: CFI = 0,806; TLI = 0,770 e RMSEA = 0,088 com associação positiva entre as variáveis, e melhor média (p<5%) quanto à correlação entre os aspectos práticos e a indicação do curso pelos discentes. Conclusão: o estudo produziu um instrumento validado e com a confiabilidade aferida que pode ser aplicado em cursos com diferentes desenhos pedagógicos e não se limita a uma área específica, uma relevante contribuição para a educação superior.

Objectives: To construct, validate and apply an instrument of evaluation of higher education courses offered in distance learning modality. Method: Methodologi- cal study. For the elaboration of the instrument, a literature review was carried out. The pre-test was validated by expert triangulation and the content was validated by the Delphi Method. For the reliability analysis we adopted the confirmatory factor analysis and Spe- arman's Correlation coefficient from the application in two distance learning courses. Re- sults: from eleven references (national and international) 70 criteria were stratified and grouped into six categories that were modified in the triangulation. Two rounds compri- sed the Delphi Technique with 17 experts initially and Cronbach's alpha of 0.80 in the second round. The confirmatory factor analysis, performed with 221 participants, did not initially generate satisfactory indexes, resulting in the exclusion of questions. The new adjusted model produced close to ideal indexes: CFI = 0.806; TLI = 0.770 and RMSEA regarding the correlation between practical aspects and students' recommendation of the course. Conclusion: the study produced a validated instrument with gauged reliability that can be applied in courses with different pedagogical designs and is not limited to a spe- cific area, a relevant contribution to higher education.

Primary studies and case reports on biosurveillance and/or adverse events in organ donation and/or transplantation, without restriction of publication date or language were included. Six electronic databases were used in the scientific literature search: Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE) (via PubMed), Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), Web of Science, LILACS, Scopus and the electronic library Scielo. A data search was also performed in the following secondary databases: Notify - World Health Organization (WHO), Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and Google Scholar. The MINORS tool was used to assess the quality of studies. Results 551 studies were identified, and after the evaluation steps, eight of them were included in the systematic review. These were divided into results, processes and strategies for preventing adverse events. Regarding the classification of the quality of studies, two obtained a good classification. Conclusion The results indicate the occurrence of adverse events at some stage of the organ and tissue donation and transplantation process, such as: adverse drug-related reactions; neurotoxicity; longer length of hospital stay; surgical reinterventions; falls; coma; death; graft failure or loss. The fact that adverse events are possibly still underreported is noteworthy.

Lilalva Scale: soft-hard technology to measure clinical competencies in emergencies of nurses.

OBJECTIVES: to present the visual identity of a soft-hard technology; to describe its technical characteristics, standardization and norms of criteria for the interpretation of results, in order to measure clinical competencies in emergencies of nurses. METHODS: article developed as a methodological study for the creation of the graphic image of the scale and standardization based on previous studies of validity and reliability evidence. RESULTS: the designed technology was named "Lilalva Scale for Measuring Clinical Competencies in Emergencies of Nurses". The graphic image text is organized by title, instructions on how to fill it out, description of the quality of delivery, and behavioral actions with respective degrees of response. The Scale has 22 items with characterization data. The standardization of the measurement instrument included: instructions for use, calculation protocol, and hypothetical example to calculate scores, the sum of the resulting scores metric for each clinical competence and diagnostic classification. CONCLUSIONS: the visual identity and the standardization instrumentalize the use of the Scale for those interested in the theme.
