Abstract
Commercial OP and NP are complex isomer mixtures that can be individually present in the environment, showing different estrogenic potencies. The aims of this study were to establish the estrogenic potency of some AP isomers in comparison to the commercial NP (cNP) mixture in vitro and to investigate in vivo their possible effects during the embryo and larval development of zebrafish. An in vitro estrogen receptor-based recombinant yeast assay was used to test the estrogenicity of specific AP isomers (22-OP, 33-OP, 22-NP, 33-NP and 363-NP) and cNP. The EC₅₀ was in the range of 0.6-7.7 mg/L. Both OP isomers and 363-NP exhibited higher estrogenic activity than cNP. For in vivo experiments, one-day postfertilisation (dpf) embryos were exposed to cNP (50, 250 and 500 μg/L), 363-NP and 33-OP (50 μg/L), 17β-estradiol (100 ng/L) and DMSO (0.01% v/v) for 4weeks. After exposure fish were maintained for 2 weeks in clean water in order to evaluate a possible recovery. Fish of groups exposed to cNP and 363-NP were the last to hatch. Histological alterations were not observed after 7, 28 or 42 dpf. Exposure to 33-OP increased transcriptional levels of erα, vtg and cyp19a1b genes. However, transcriptional response in E2 exposure was observed at later stages and with higher fold induction levels. Exposure to cNP decreased levels of erα whereas increased levels of rxrγ and cyp19a1b. Exposure to 363-NP did not cause changes in transcriptional levels of studied genes. The differences in response of the OP isomer compared to the NP isomer in zebrafish could be related to the rapid decay in concentration of the latter.

Abstract
In this work, home-made Polar Organic Chemical Integrative Samplers (POCIS) were studied for passive sampling of 15 endocrine disrupting compounds (4 alkylphenols and steroid hormones) in influent and effluent samples of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) as well as up- and downstream of the receiving river water. POCIS calibration at laboratory conditions was carried out using a continuous-flow calibration system. The influence of the exposure position of the POCIS within the calibration device, horizontal or vertical, to the water flow direction was evaluated. While the sampling rates of most of the target substances were not affected by the sampler position, for cis-ADT, E1, E2 and E3, the vertical position provided the highest analyte accumulation. Hence, the POCIS samplers were preferably exposed vertical to the water flow in overall experiments. Using the continuous-flow calibration device, lab-based sampling rates were determined for all the target compounds (RSBPA = 0.0326 L/d; RScisADT = 0.0800 L/d, RSE1 = 0.0398 L/d, RSEQ = 0.0516 L/d, RSTT = 0.0745 L/d, RSE2 = 0.0585 L/d, RSEE2 = 0.0406 L/d, RSNT = 0.0846 L/d, RSPG = 0.0478 L/d and RSE3 = 0.1468 L/d), except for DES, MeEE2, 4tOP, 4OP, 4NPs, where the uptake after 14 days POCIS exposure was found to be insignificant or indicated a no linear behaviour. Recoveries from POCIS extractions were in the range between 71 and 152% for most of the target analytes except for DES and E3 with around 59%. Good precision of the sampling procedure up till 20% was observed and limits of detection were at ng/L level. Two deuterated compounds ([(2)H3]-E2 and [(2)H4]-EQ) were successfully tested as performance reference compounds (PRC, [Formula: see text] = 0.0507 L/d and [Formula: see text] = 0.0543 L/d)). Finally, the POCIS samplers were tested for monitoring EDCs at two wastewater treatment plants, in Halle and Leipzig (Germany). BPA, E1, EQ, E2, MeEE2, NT, EE2, PG and E3 were quantified and their time-weighted average concentrations calculated on the basis of the lab-derived sampling rates were compared with the results based on conventional grab samples. While the influent concentration of BPA, cisADT, E1, TT, PG, EE2 reached the μg/L level, the rest of the target analytes were determined at ng/L. The analyte concentrations in the effluent never exceed ng/L level except for BPA. The concentration determined by spot sampling was partially lower (BPA, E1, TT) or comparable (EQ, E2, EE2, PG, E3) to the concentration obtained by POCIS using performance reference compounds (PRC).

Abstract
This work describes the optimisation, validation and application of membrane assisted solvent extraction (MASE) together with a large volume injection (LVI) in a programmable temperature vaporisation (PTV) injector coupled to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for the quantification of ten synthetic musk fragrances (musks) in surface and wastewater samples. Regarding the MASE, musks were extracted from 150 mL of aqueous samples to 200 μL of n-hexane hold in home-made low density polyethylene (LDPE) bags. The extraction took 240 min and the performance of the method made possible the direct analysis of the extracts by LVI-PTV-GC-MS without needing any further treatment and avoiding losses of analytes. During the optimisation of LVI-PTV set-up, the response surfaces of every analyte signal against the cryo-focussing temperature, injection speed and vent time were built. Finally, the figures of merit of the whole procedure allowed the analysis of most of the musks owing to the low method detection limits (between 4 and 25 ng L⁻¹) and good precisions (<20%). In fact, this method was successfully applied to the analysis of musks in surface and wastewater samples. Galaxolide and tonalide are the main two synthetic musks observed in most of the analysed environmental water samples.

Abstract
Bacillary angiomatosis is a recently described infectious disease that usually affects immunosupressed hosts with a previous history of contact with cats. We report a rare case of bacillary angiomatosis in an immunocompetent 59-year-old woman with no history of previous exposure to cats, and atypical clinical features (fever and subcutaneous nodules with ulceration on the left ankle). Histopathology of the lesion showed extensive ulceration and reactive tumor-like vascular proliferation of the blood vessels with swollen endothelial cells and an inflammatory infiltrate including neutrophils and lymphocytes in the dermis and subcutis. Staining with the Warthin-Starry method demonstrated the presence of clustered bacilli located in the extracellular matrix adjacent to the proliferating endothelial cells. Diagnosis was confirmed with the detection of Bartonella spp. DNA in the affected skin and in bone marrow using polymerase chain reaction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To document the epidemiology, causes, treatment and prognostic factors associated with mortality of patients with brain abscess in a tertiary medical center. METHODS Observational retrospective cohort study of patients with cerebral abscess admitted at a tertiary hospital during 13 years. RESULTS The case records of 71 patients admitted to a tertiary hospital between January 1992 and December 2005 and diagnosed of brain abscess were review. Brain abscess occurred at all ages, more frequently in men than in women. Fever, headache and altered mental status were common presenting symptoms. The most common site of infection was the frontal lobe (28 patients). Seventeen patients had multiple abscesses. Staphylococcal infection was seen most commonly. Computed tomography provided sufficient diagnostic information in all cases. Twenty six patients had early surgical drainage. Thirty four patients were admitted to the intensive care Unit (ICU). The overall mortality was 21% (15 patients), all of that related to the infection. Six patients died in ICU. More than 65 years of age (OR, 1.0; CI 95%, 1.0-1.1), medical treatment without surgery (OR, 8.9; CI 95%, 1.1-73.8), presence of multiple abscesses, (OR, 6.0; CI 95%, 1.0-34.9), immunosuppression (OR, 21.5; CI 95%, 2.9-157.2) and delay in starting antibiotherapy (OR, 1.5 per day of delay; CI 95%, 1.0-2.1) were independent predictors of in-hospital death. CONCLUSIONS In spite of improvement in diagnosis and treatment of patients with cerebral abscess, mortality is still high. Factors related to patient underlying diseases and the delay in the start an antibiotic treatment were associated with increased mortality (50% increase of mortality risk per day in the delay of starting antibiotherapy).

Abstract
The dry deposition of ammonia from the atmosphere to the surface can lead to eutrophication of sensitive ecosystems and acidification of the soil. A large proportion of the ammonia emitted from agricultural sources can be deposited within a few kilometres and, therefore, impacts of ammonia dry deposition often occur near to the source. To assess these impacts, short-range atmospheric dispersion models are often applied to simulate the emission, dispersion and deposition of ammonia. However, these models can be time-consuming to run and often require detailed input data and, therefore, for multiple assessments it is useful to have a method of screening to discard scenarios where impacts are expected to be negligible. The SCAIL model (Simple Calculation of Ammonia Impact Limits) has been developed for this purpose. SCAIL estimates the atmospheric concentration and dry deposition at the nearest edge of a sensitive ecosystem (receptor) downwind of an ammonia source. These estimates are calculated based on simple meteorological data, the emission rate of the source, land cover type and distance to the receptor. Analysis of the model predictions showed that uncertainty in the model input data leads to an uncertainty in concentration and dry deposition estimates of 25-30% and 40-45% respectively. Detailed atmospheric dispersion models will also have similar uncertainties since they use similar types of input data. Comparison of the concentration predictions with previous measurements made around eight farms showed that the model significantly underestimated concentrations although the model performance was similar to existing screening techniques. The measurement dataset was used to calibrate the SCAIL model which subsequently performed better, using independent verification data, than existing models calibrated in a similar way. The benefits of the SCAIL model are already being seen in the UK, where it is used to screen farms for potential impacts on statutory nature conservation areas.

Abstract
Extrahepatic replication may have important implications for the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV). Our aim was to analyse the association between the presence of positive/negative strand HCV RNA in different peripheral blood cell subsets at the end of PegIFN/RBV treatment, and treatment response in HIV-coinfected patients. Thirty-four HCV-HIV coinfected patients who concluded 48 weeks of PegIFN/RBV treatment were included in the present study. Positive/negative strand HCV RNA was detected by amplification of the 5' untranslated region (5' UTR) using high-temperature RT-PCR in immunomagnetic-isolated cell subsets. Twenty-three patients (67.6%) had sustained virologic response (SVR) while 11 patients (32.4%) relapsed. The frequency of positive/negative strand HCV RNA in any cell subsets was significantly lower in patients with SVR (8.6%) compared to relapsers (63.6%) (P = 0.002). Baseline HCV viral load was statistically higher among patients who relapsed (P = 0.008), while patients with SVR had very early virologic response more frequently (P = 0.003). Multivariate analysis showed, among these three variables, that only the presence of positive/negative strand HCV RNA was independently associated with relapse [P = 0.024; OR 14 (14-137)]. In conclusion, the presence of positive/negative strand HCV RNA at the end of treatment is associated with relapse among HCV-HIV coinfected patients and might have important implications in the clinical practice.

Abstract
Since highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) was introduced a decade ago, it has been shown to be effective in keeping HIV-1 replication under control. Nevertheless, it is also known that HAART has certain limitations, such as its inability to completely inhibit the viral replication that maintains virus reservoirs, its high toxicity when the treatment is maintained for long periods of time, and the appearance of viral resistance to the therapy. These limitations have led to the introduction of structured treatment interruption (STI) of antiretroviral therapy, the principle of which is to reduce the clinical complications of HAART, and hypothetically to boost the cellular immune response of the patient host. The aim of this study was to analyze for the first time the impact of STI on the innate immune system. Specifically, we analyzed NK cells and their regulatory receptors (KIRs, NKG2, NCRs, and ILTs) and the cytokines that might control the NK response. Six months after the initiation of STI, the results revealed in most patients a significant increase in NK cells expressing ILT2 and NKp46 receptors. Slight or no changes were observed in other parameters studied, either during interruption or when HAART was reintroduced. Our data show that the STI strategy, irrespective of whether it improved the patients' clinical evolution, induced functional phenotype changes in NK cell subsets.

OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that the arterial blood gas oxygen tension/fraction of inspired oxygen ratio (PaO2/FiO2) would prove to be useful as a mortality marker after lung transplantation (LT). The aims of this study were to define the prevalence of various ranges of PaO2/FiO2 during the first 24 hours after LT and to evaluate which measurement using the PaO2/FiO2 best correlates with mortality. METHODS A retrospective study was performed that included all patients who underwent LT from 1997 to 2005. We collected PaO2/FiO2 ratios at 0, 12, and 24 hours after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). We classified the 132 patients in 5 groups, based on PaO2/FiO2 (Group 1, PaO2/FiO2 <100; Group 2, PaO2/FiO2 100-199; Group 3, PaO2/FiO2 200-299; Group 4, PaO2/FiO2 300-399; Group 5, PaO2/FiO2 >or=400). The correlation between PaO2/FiO2 and mortality was studied using Cox regression. RESULTS Cox regression analysis showed that PaO2/FiO2 at 0 and 12 hours after admission to the ICU were not useful mortality markers. However, the PaO2/FiO2 at 24 hours after admission to the ICU was a useful long-term prognostic marker. PaO2/FiO2 >100 (groups 2, 3, 4, and 5) at 24 hours was significantly associated with less mortality when a lower PaO2/FiO2 was the reference (hazard Ratio: 0.08, 0.02, 0.05, and 0.02, respectively). On multivariate analysis PaO2/FiO2 >or=100 (groups 2, 3, 4, and 5) at 24 hours was significantly associated with less mortality when a lower PaO2/FiO2 was the reference (hazard ratio: 0.07, 0.003, 0.01, and 0.005, respectively). CONCLUSIONS A value of PaO2/FiO2 >100 mm Hg 24 hours after admission to the ICU is associated with a lower mortality.
