RESUMEN

The synthesis and antiproliferative evaluation of novel d-glucopyranuronamide-containing nucleosides is described. Based on our previously reported anticancer d-glucuronamide-based nucleosides, new analogues comprising N/O-dodecyl or N-propargyl substituents at the glucuronamide unit and anomerically-N-linked 2-acetamido-6-chloropurine, 6-chloropurine or 4-(6-chloropurinyl)methyl triazole motifs were synthesized in 4-6 steps starting from acetonide-protected glucofuranurono-6,3-lactone. The methodologies were based on the access to N-substituted glycopyranuronamide precursors, namely 1,2-O-acetyl derivatives or glucuronoamidyl azides for further nucleobase N-glycosylation or 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with N9 - and N7 -propargyl-6-chloropurines, respectively. N-Propargyl glucuronamide-based N9 -purine nucleosides were converted into (triazolyl)methyl amide-6,6-linked pseudodisaccharide nucleosides via cycloaddition with methyl 6-azido-glucopyranoside. A CuI/Amberlyst A-21 catalytic system employed in the cycloaddition reactions also effected conversion into 6-dimethylaminopurine nucleosides. Antiproliferative evaluation in chronic myeloid leukemia (K562) and breast cancer (MCF-7) cells revealed significant effects exhibited by the synthesized monododecylated purine-containing nucleosides. A N-propargyl 3-O-dodecyl glucuronamide derivative comprising a N9 -ß-linked 6-chloropurine moiety was the most active compound against MCF-7 cells (GI50 =11.9 µM) while a related α-(purinyl)methyltriazole nucleoside comprising a N7 -linked 6-chloropurine moiety exhibited the highest activity against K562 cells (GI50 =8.0 µM). Flow cytometry and immunoblotting analysis of apoptosis-related proteins in K562 cells treated with the N-propargyl 3-O-dodecyl glucuronamide-based N9 -linked 6-chloropurine nucleoside indicated that it acts via apoptosis induction.

RESUMEN

Microbial biostimulants have emerged as a sustainable alternative to increase the productivity and quality of important crops. Despite this, the effects of the treatment on plant metabolism are poorly understood. Thus, this study investigated the metabolic response of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) related to the treatment with a biostimulant obtained from the extract of Corynebacterium glutamicum that showed positive effects on the development, growth, and yield of crops previously. By untargeted metabolomic analysis using UHPLC-MS/MS, plants and seeds were subjected to treatment with the biostimulant. Under ideal growth conditions, the plants treated exhibited higher concentration levels of glutamic acid, nicotiflorin and glycosylated lipids derived from linolenic acid. The foliar application of the biostimulant under water stress conditions increased the chlorophyll content by 17% and induced the accumulation of flavonols, mainly quercetin derivatives. Also, germination seed assays exhibited longer radicle lengths for seeds treated compared to the untreated control even in the absence of light (13-18% increase, p-value <0.05). Metabolomic analysis of the seeds indicated changes in concentration levels of amino acids (tryptophan, phenylalanine, tyrosine, glutamine, and arginine) and their derivatives. The results point out the enhancement of abiotic stress tolerance and the metabolic processes triggered in this crop associated with the treatment with the biostimulant, giving the first insights into stress tolerance mechanisms in P. vulgaris.

RESUMEN

This study aims to demonstrate the capability of the digital image correlation (DIC) technique for evaluating full-field residual stresses in wire and arc additive manufactured (WAAM) components. Investigations were carried out on WAAM steel parts (wall deposited on a substrate) with two different wall heights: 24 mm and 48 mm. Mild steel solid wire AWS ER70S-6 was used to print WAAM walls on substrates that were rigidly clamped to H-profiles. DIC was used to monitor the bending deformation of WAAM parts during unclamping from the H-profiles, and residual stresses were calculated from the strain field captured during unclamping. Residual stresses determined from the proposed DIC-based method were verified with an analytical model and validated by the results from established residual stress measurement techniques, i.e., the contour method and X-ray diffraction.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in predicting no residual disease (NRD) after secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) compared with MSK criteria, the iMODEL, and the AGO score. METHODS: We analyzed 112 patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian carcinoma who underwent SCS. We excluded patients for whom PET/CT was not performed, those without sufficient data, and who received chemotherapy before SCS. Ultimately, 69 patients were included. RESULTS: Variables that correlated with NRD were peritoneal carcinomatosis index (odds ratio [OR]=0.91; 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.83-0.99; p=0.044), European Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG) 0 (OR=8.0; 95% CI=1.34-47.5; p=0.022), and ≤2 lesions by PET/CT (OR=4.36; 95% CI=1.07-17.7; p=0.039). Of the patients with ≤2 lesions by PET/CT, 48 (92.3%) underwent complete SCS. The sensitivity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of PET/CT for NRD were 85.7%, 92.3%, 33.3%, and 81.2%, respectively. NRD was achieved after fulfilling the MSK criteria, iMODEL and AGO Score in 89.1%, 88.1% and 85.9%, respectively. The accuracy of the MSK criteria, iMODEL, and AGO score in predicting NRD was 87%, 83.3%, and 77.3%, respectively. The PET/CT findings agreed well with the AGO score and iMODEL. The addition of PET/CT to these models increased the NRD rates (92.2%, 91.8%, and 89.4% for MSK+PET/CT, iMODEL+PET/CT, and AGO+PET/CT, respectively), but lowered their accuracy. CONCLUSION: We observed NRD in 92.3% of patients with ≤2 lesions by PET/CT, with an accuracy of 81.2%. PET/CT did not increase the accuracy of the MSK criteria, iMODEL, or AGO score models.

RESUMEN

Background: Breakpoint cluster region-Abelson gene (BCR-ABL) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized the treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, concern has arisen about the cardiac safety profile of these drugs. Objectives: This study aims to compare long-term risks of adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (ACE), heart failure or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 50%, and venous thromboembolic events (VTE) in patients with CML treated with BCR-ABL TKIs, using data from a large multinational network. Methods: Patients aged ≥ 18 years with CML treated with imatinib, dasatinib, or nilotinib without prior cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease were included. We used propensity score matching to balance the cohorts. The 5-year cumulative incidences and hazard ratios were calculated. Results: We identified 3,722 patients with CML under treatment with imatinib (n = 1,906), dasatinib (n = 1,269), and nilotinib (n = 547). Patients with imatinib compared to dasatinib showed a higher hazard ratio (HR) for ACE (HR 2,13, 95% CI 1.15-3.94, p = 0.016). Patients with imatinib presented a lower HR than nilotinib for ACE (HR 0.50, 95% CI 0.30-0.83, p = 0.0074). In relation to heart failure or LVEF < 50%, patients with imatinib had a higher HR than dasatinib (HR 9.41, 95% CI 1.22-72.17, p = 0.03), but no significant difference was observed between imatinib and nilotinib (HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.215-1.01, p = 0.064). Conclusion: In this retrospective study with a large number of patients with CML, those treated with nilotinib had a higher 5-year ratio of ACE, while patients with dasatinib showed a lower ratio than patients with imatinib. The ratio of heart failure was higher in patients with imatinib than in patients with dasatinib, but not when compared to nilotinib.

RESUMEN

Artificial Intelligence techniques based on Machine Learning algorithms, Neural Networks and Naïve Bayes can optimise the diagnostic process of the SARS-CoV-2 or Covid-19. The most significant help of these techniques is analysing data recorded by health professionals when treating patients with this disease. Health professionals' more specific focus is due to the reduction in the number of observable signs and symptoms, ranging from an acute respiratory condition to severe pneumonia, showing an efficient form of attribute engineering. It is important to note that the clinical diagnosis can vary from asymptomatic to extremely harsh conditions. About 80% of patients with Covid-19 may be asymptomatic or have few symptoms. Approximately 20% of the detected cases require hospital care because they have difficulty breathing, of which about 5% may require ventilatory support in the Intensive Care Unit. Also, the present study proposes a hybrid approach model, structured in the composition of Artificial Intelligence techniques, using Machine Learning algorithms, associated with multicriteria methods of decision support based on the Verbal Decision Analysis methodology, aiming at the discovery of knowledge, as well as exploring the predictive power of specific data in this study, to optimise the diagnostic models of Covid-19. Thus, the model will provide greater accuracy to the diagnosis sought through clinical observation.

RESUMEN

Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) due to severe aortic stenosis have a high prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD). As many of them have high surgical risk, CAD treatment in this group has typically been carried out with optimal medical treatment or paired with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the best approach in this scenario is not well established. We aimed to evaluate 5-year cardiovascular outcomes in patients with aortic stenosis and chronic CAD treated with medical treatment alone compared to PCI coupled with medical therapy before or during TAVI. We used data from a large multinational electronic health record network (TriNetX). Patients aged 18 years or older with severe aortic stenosis and CAD who underwent TAVI in the last 10 years before the analysis were considered eligible. Five-year Kaplan-Meier curves and hazard ratios were calculated. We identified 19 058 patients undergoing isolated TAVI and 2277 patients undergoing TAVI and PCI. Using propensity matching scores, 2277 patients in each group were compared. The 5-year cumulative incidence of MACE was 22.92% in the isolated TAVI group, vs. 25.91% in the PCI-TAVI group. The probability of the composite primary outcome was not significantly different between the isolated TAVI group vs. the PCI-TAVI group [53.1 vs. 47.6%, adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 0.92, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.80-1.05]. In a real-world study of patients with CAD and severe aortic stenosis, the 5-year probability of death, acute coronary syndrome and ischemic stroke did not differ between patients undergoing isolated TAVI compared to patients undergoing PCI before or during TAVI.

RESUMEN

Erysipelas is often related to lymphedema, which can occur in up to 60% of cases, with advanced age, radiotherapy, tumor extension, surgical approach, and infections as risk factors. The aim of this study was to present and discuss a series of cases of erysipelas after breast cancer surgery treated in a private mastology clinic over the past ten years. This is a retrospective horizontal cohort study in which we selected all cases of erysipelas after breast cancer surgery from 2009 to 2019. The following were evaluated: number of patients treated with a diagnosis of breast carcinoma with axillary approach, age, surgery performed, adjuvant treatment and treatment of erysipelas, presence of lymphedema, and measurement of circumferences between both arms and associated diseases. A total of 12 cases of breast cancer were treated. In 66.66% of cases, a radical axillary lymphadenectomy was performed, and in 16.66% of cases, only a sentinel lymph node investigation was performed. The average age was 67.6 years. Erysipelas appeared, on average, 43 months after cancer diagnosis. Two deaths were reported due to severe erysipelas leading to sepsis. More studies are still needed on the subject. Of the 12 cases in this study, eight (66.66%) were associated with lymphedema. Only two (16.66%) of the patients in this group who developed erysipelas were not submitted to axillary dissection. The treatment for 50% of the participants in this research was with penicillin G benzathine. There were three relapses, and two patients died during the research period

RESUMEN

Background: Bleeding is the most common adverse event in those with cardiovascular (CV) disease receiving antithrombotic therapy, and it most commonly occurs in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Clinicians often dismiss bleeding as an adverse event that is reversible with effective antithrombotic therapy, but bleeding is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, most likely mediated through an increased risk of CV events. Reducing the burden of bleeding requires knowledge of the potentially modifiable risk factors for bleeding and the potentially modifiable risk factors for adverse outcomes after bleeding. Methods: INTERBLEED is an international, multicentre, 2-component, observational study, with an incident case-control study examining the risk factors for GI bleeding, and a prospective cohort study of risk factors for CV events after GI bleeding. Cases either have CV disease and present to the hospital with GI bleeding or develop GI bleeding during hospitalization. Controls have CV disease, but no history of GI bleeding. We use a questionnaire to obtain detailed information on known and potential risk factors for GI bleeding and for CV events and outcomes after bleeding. We obtain CV and anthropometric measurements, perform functional and cognitive assessments, and follow participants at 3 months and 12 months. Results: As of April 1, 2022, the study is ongoing in 10 countries at 31 centres and has recruited 2407 cases and 1478 controls. Conclusions: Knowledge of risk factors for bleeding, and risk factors for CV events and functional decline after bleeding, will help develop strategies to prevent bleeding and subsequent complications.


Contexte: L'hémorragie est l'effet indésirable le plus fréquent chez les patients atteints de maladies cardiovasculaires (CV) qui reçoivent un traitement antithrombotique, et elle survient le plus souvent dans le tractus gastro-intestinal (GI). Les cliniciens considèrent souvent l'hémorragie comme une simple manifestation indésirable réversible par un traitement antithrombotique efficace, mais une morbidité et une mortalité considérables y sont associées, probablement en raison d'un risque accru d'événements CV. Une réduction du fardeau de l'hémorragie nécessite une connaissance des facteurs de risque potentiellement modifiables tant de l'hémorragie que des événements indésirables qui surviennent après l'hémorragie. Méthodologie: INTERBLEED est une étude internationale, observationnelle et multicentrique à deux volets; le premier volet est une étude cas-témoins incidents visant à examiner les facteurs de risque d'hémorragie GI, alors que le second volet est une étude de cohorte prospective visant à examiner les facteurs de risque d'événements CV après une hémorragie GI. Les cas sont des patients atteints de maladies CV qui consultent les services hospitaliers pour une hémorragie GI ou qui présentent une hémorragie GI en cours d'hospitalisation. Les témoins sont des patients atteints de maladies CV, mais sans antécédents d'hémorragie GI. Un questionnaire est utilisé pour obtenir des renseignements détaillés au sujet de facteurs de risque connus et potentiels d'hémorragie GI et d'événements CV et d'autres résultats de santé après une hémorragie. Des mesures cardiovasculaires et anthropométriques ainsi que des évaluations fonctionnelles et cognitives sont réalisées, et les participants sont revus après trois mois et 12 mois. Résultats: En date du 1er avril 2022, l'étude est en cours dans 10 pays et 31 établissements de santé; 2 407 cas et 1 478 témoins ont été recrutés. Conclusions: La connaissance des facteurs de risque d'hémorragie, ainsi que des facteurs de risque d'événements CV et de déclin fonctionnel à la suite d'une hémorragie, aidera à mettre en place des stratégies pour prévenir les hémorragies et les complications qui peuvent en découler.

RESUMEN

For decades there have been anecdotal claims of synergistic interactions between plant-parasitic nematodes and soil-borne fungi causing decline of productivity of passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) orchards. An empirical confirmation of these disease complexes would impact disease management and plant breeding for resistance. To test those claims, we subjected passion fruit plants to single or concomitant parasitism by Meloidogyne javanica or M. incognita and Fusarium nirenbergiae or Neocosmospora sp. under controlled conditions. Non-inoculated plants served as control for the assays. The severity of shoot symptoms and variables related to plant growth, the extent of fungal lesions, and nematode reproduction were assessed to characterize the interactions. The shoot symptoms and effect on plant growth induced by the pathogens varied, but no synergy between the pathogens was observed. Moreover, the volume of tissue lesioned by the fungi was not affected by co-parasitism of the nematodes. Conversely, plant resistance to the nematodes was not affected by co-parasitism of the fungi. The interactions M. incognita-F. nirenbergiae, M. incognita-Neocosmospora sp., M. javanica-F. nirenbergiae, and M. javanica-Neocosmospora sp. were not synergistic as previously claimed, but instead neutral.

RESUMEN

No Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) os Agentes Comunitários de Saúde (ACS) estão em constante contato com o território em que atuam, pela sua função e papel de morador, resultando em consequências ambíguas no estabelecimento de suas ações. Assim, o presente estudo busca compreender o papel dos Agentes Comunitários de Saúde, sua relação com o território, unidade e profissionais, e os processos de saúde e adoecimento no desempenho da função. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo no formato de pesquisa participante, por meio de entrevista semiestruturada com 6 ACS, que também foram acompanhados em suas atividades diárias. A análise de conteúdo dos dados obtidos por diário de campo e entrevista possibilitou a identificação de 3 categorias: Papel dos ACS; Relação com a Equipe, e Saúde e Sofrimento dos ACS. O sofrimento dos ACS decorre da vigilância sobre seu trabalho, dificuldades no relacionamento interpessoal com a equipe, adversidades no território e sobrecarga de trabalho. Identifica-se que são profissionais muitas vezes subestimados e incompreendidos


In the Unified Health System, Community Health Agents (CHA) are in constant contact with the territory in which they operate, due to their role and role as residents, resulting in ambiguous consequences in the establishment of their actions. Thus, the present study seeks to understand the role of Community Health Agents, their relationship with the territory, unit and professionals, and the processes of health and illness in the performance of the function. This is a qualitative study in the form of participatory research, through a semi-structured interview with 6 CHA, who were also monitored in their daily activities. The content analysis of the data obtained by field diary and interview enabled the identification of 3 categories: Role of the CHA; Relationship with the Team, and Health and Suffering from the CHA. The CHA's suffering stems from surveillance over their work, difficulties in interpersonal relationships with the team, adversities in the territory and work overload. It is identified that they are professionals often underestimated and misunderstood.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Risk-reducing operations are an important part of the management of hereditary predisposition to cancer. In selected cases, they can considerably reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with cancer in this population. OBJECTIVES: The Brazilian Society of Surgical Oncology (BSSO) developed this guideline to establish national benchmarks for cancer risk-reducing operations. METHODS: The guideline was prepared from May to December 2021 by a multidisciplinary team of experts to discuss the surgical management of cancer predisposition syndromes. Fourteen questions were defined and assigned to expert groups that reviewed the literature and drafted preliminary recommendations. Following a review by the coordinators and a second review by all participants, the groups made final adjustments, classified the level of evidence, and voted on the recommendations. RESULTS: For all questions including risk-reduction bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, hysterectomy, and mastectomy, major agreement was achieved by the participants, always using accessible alternatives. CONCLUSION: This and its accompanying article represent the first guideline in cancer risk reduction surgery developed by the BSSO, and it should serve as an important reference for the management of families with cancer predisposition.

RESUMEN

A possible detection of sub-solar mass ultra-compact objects would lead to new perspectives on the existence of black holes that are not of astrophysical origin and/or pertain to formation scenarios of exotic ultra-compact objects. Both possibilities open new perspectives for better understanding of our universe. In this work, we investigate the significance of detection of sub-solar mass binaries with components mass in the range: 10-2M⊙ up to 1M⊙, within the expected sensitivity of the ground-based gravitational waves detectors of third generation, viz., the Einstein Telescope (ET) and the Cosmic Explorer (CE). Assuming a minimum of amplitude signal-to-noise ratio for detection, viz., ρ=8, we find that the maximum horizon distances for an ultra-compact binary system with components mass 10-2M⊙ and 1M⊙ are 40 Mpc and 1.89 Gpc, respectively, for ET, and 125 Mpc and 5.8 Gpc, respectively, for CE. Other cases are also presented in the text. We derive the merger rate and discuss consequences on the abundances of primordial black hole (PBH), fPBH. Considering the entire mass range [10-2-1]M⊙, we find fPBH<0.70 (<0.06) for ET (CE), respectively.
