Abstract
Introduction Discontinuity in child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) and adult mental health services (AMHS) constitutes an important challenge in mental health care. In the last decade, efforts have been made to better define the transitioning population and build consensual models for CAMHS-AMHS’ transition. Objectives We aim to present our protocol and transition consultation results on the scope of published literature. Methods Description of protocol and casuistic of 18 months’ transition consultation at Centro Hospitalar Barreiro-Montijo. The literature found on PubMed was published from 2008 to 2020 and was reviewed using the keywords: transition, CAMHS, AMHS, adolescent, mental health service, young people. Articles with full text available written in English and French were selected. The included clinical studies focused on populations with neurodevelopmental disorders, psychotic disorders, non-suicidal self-harm and suicidal attempts. Results Forty-four articles were included, published from 2008 to 2020. 4 articles were excluded on basis of language and diagnosis criteria (eating disorders). Twelve were reviews, 24 were clinical studies and 4 were opinion articles. There are cultural and referral issues that explain the loss of patients in this transition gap. Individuals with history of severe mental illness were more frequently referred than those with neurodevelopmental disorders. Optimal transition is defined as adequate transition planning with a flexible age cut-off and continuity of care following transition. Conclusions For the vast majority of service users, transition from CAMHS to AMHS is poorly planned, executed and experienced. Improving transition models is essential to the patients autonomy’ promotion and a stronger adult mental health.

Abstract
IntroductionBipolar disorder (BD) is frequently underdiagnosed and due to poor screening, the average time between onset of symptoms and diagnosis is more than 7-years (Mantere et al., 2004). Improper diagnosis has serious consequences in intervention (Ghaemi et al., 2001), and previous assessment instruments are now considered insufficient to detect intervention changes, and to provide a more functional and integrated view of BD.ObjectivesOur study aims to develop a new DSM-5 based Clinical Interview for Bipolar Disorder (CIBD), providing criteria to diagnose BD, but also the individual’s perceptions dealing with BD symptoms. This interview follows the same structure of CIPD (Martins et al., 2015), which has shown acceptability by the participants and experts.MethodsCIBD was developed by a multidisciplinary team considering the DSM-5 criteria for Bipolar Disorders. There was a thorough research regarding assessment and evaluation of BD, and several suggestions from an international task force of specialist working with BD patients were considered, when writing the questions for the interview. A detailed description of CIBD development is presented. The authors of the interview have extended experience in the management and assessment of BD patients, and CIBD is now being assessed by a wider non-related panel, regarding pertinence and clarity.ResultsPreliminary assessment and qualitative feedback from participants that were interviewed is shown, with an overall positive feedback.ConclusionsCIBD assesses both the diagnosis/presence of mood episodes (hypo/mania, and depressive) and symptoms’ psychosocial correlates. CIBD detects subtle changes caused by intervention adding a much needed recovery focused perspective.DisclosureNo significant relationships.

Abstract
Introduction Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been associated with the development mental and behavioural symptoms and psychiatric disorders. This association is stronger in severe cases of the disease and in those needing inpatient treatment, particularly in intensive care units (ICU). Objectives To determine the incidence of psychiatric disorders in a Portuguese hospital-based sample of patients with COVID-19. To describe relevant demographic and clinical data. Methods We reviewed all COVID-19 inpatients assessed by liaison psychiatry at our hospital between April and September 2020. Patients admitted due to a psychiatric disorder were excluded from the analysis. We reviewed medical records and retrieved relevant clinical data. ICD-10 was used to classify diagnoses. Results We identified 36 cases with a mean age of 62.64 years-old (SD 19.23). The most common disorder was delirium, which occurred in 41.7% of our sample (15 patients), followed by adjustment disorder (22.2%, n=8), and depressive episode (16.7%, n=8). Most patients had no personal (61.1%, n=22) nor family (75%, n=27) history of a psychiatric disorder. Mean length of admission was 36.89 days (SD 28.91). Seventeen cases (47.22%) had at least one risk factor for severe COVID-19 disease and 14 (38.89%) were admitted at some point to the ICU. Conclusions In our sample, delirium was the main cause for mental or behavioural symptoms in COVID-19 patients. However, we observed a wide array of presentations in our center. A larger sample would allow to better characterize this often-overlooked symptoms and identify risk factors to psychiatric syndromes. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Abstract
Background A 6‐week Phase I clinical trial was performed to primarily evaluate the safety and secondarily determine the preliminary efficacy of a novel biological solution, ST266, comprised of a mixture of cytokines, growth factors, nucleic acids, and lipids secreted by cultured amnion‐derived multipotent progenitor cells on gingival inflammation. Methods Fifty‐four adults with gingivitis/periodontitis were randomly assigned to 1X ST266 or diluted 0.3X ST266 or saline topically applied on facial/lingual gingiva (20 µL/tooth). Safety was assessed through oral soft/hard tissue exam, adverse events, and routine laboratory tests. Efficacy was assessed by modified gingival index (MGI), bleeding on probing, plaque index, probing depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL). Assessments were performed on day 0, 8, 12, and 42. ST266 and saline applied daily starting at day 0 through day 12 except weekend days. Plasma was analyzed for safety and proinflammatory cytokines, interleukin (IL)‐1β, IL‐6, tumor necrosis factor‐alpha, and interferon gamma. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) was analyzed for the same cytokines. Subgingival plaque was primarily analyzed by checkerboard DNA‐DNA hybridization. Comparisons with saline were modeled through a generalized estimating equations method adjusting for baseline. Results No safety concern was found related to ST266. Statistically significant reduction in MGI was noted at day 42 by 1X ST266 compared with saline (P = 0.044). PD and CAL were reduced by both doses of ST266 at day 42 (P <0.01) and by 1X ST266 at day 12 (P <0.05). GCF IL‐1β and IL‐6 levels were reduced by both doses of ST266 at day 12 (P <0.05, P <0.01, respectively). IL‐6 was also significantly reduced in plasma of both ST266 groups (P <0.05). Significant reductions in red complex bacteria were detected in both ST266 doses. Conclusions In this “first in human oral cavity” study, topical ST266 was safe and effective in reducing gingival inflammation in 6 weeks. Longitudinal studies with large sample sizes are warranted to assess the therapeutic value of this novel host modulatory compound in the treatment of periodontal diseases.

Abstract
The F 1s core level photoionization of the ionic molecular radical HF+ has been studied using the photon-ion merged-beams technique at a synchrotron radiation source. Upon analyzing kinetic energy release (KER) dependent photoion yield spectra, complex ultrafast dissociation dynamics of the F 1s core hole excited σ* state can be revealed. By means of configuration-interaction electronic structure calculations of the excited molecular potential energy curves, this complex process can be attributed to a spin-dependent dissociation of the excited σ* biradical state.

Abstract
AbstractSchool classrooms within the EU are multilingual learning environments. The diversity of pupils in classrooms raises significant challenges for teachers, but to date, there are no data from large-scale surveys that compare views within and across European countries. A bespoke questionnaire was designed to examine views of current classroom learning environments with respect to the multilingualism. The questionnaire was piloted and subsequently completed by 2792 teachers across different European countries. Eleven countries provided sufficient data for analyses. Results from structural equation modelling showed that teachers’ attitudes could be reliably measured across Europe with the use of carefully devised questionnaire, whose loading and factor structure remained invariant across countries. Teachers’ views about multilingualism were most challenged by the numbers of children in their classes, not the percentage of multilingual pupils in the class. Countries differed in how they perceived multilingualism, with their differences leading to distinctive country clusters. Gender and education level (elementary vs. secondary) differences were also observed irrespective of country. These findings enhance our understanding of the role that the characteristics of teachers and their classrooms play in a multilingual setting across diverse European settings. The practical relevance of the results and new opportunities for teacher training are discussed.

Abstract
Abstract It is a fact that the regions that cultivate the most maize crop do not have fully adequate technologies to measure productivity losses caused by irregularities in water availability. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physiological characteristics of maize hybrids tolerant (DKB 390) and sensitive (BRS 1030) to drought, at V5 growth stage and under water restriction, in order to understand the mechanisms involved in the induction of tolerance to drought by chitosan in contrasting maize genotypes. Plants were cultivated in pots at a greenhouse, and chitosan 100 ppm was applied by leaf spraying. The water restriction was imposed for 10 days and then leaf gaseous exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence were evaluated. The tolerant hybrid (DKB 390) showed higher photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, carboxylation efficiency, electron transport rate, and non-photochemical quenching when chitosan was used. Plants from tolerant genotype treated with chitosan were more tolerant to water stress because there were more responsive to the biopolymer.

Abstract
Background:Autoimmune disease (AID) has been associated with increased risk of influenza and influenza-like illness (ILI) and its worse clinical outcomes complications.Objectives:We aimed to assess the influence and difference of several immunosuppressive (IS) treatments in the incidence of ILI, including glucocorticoids (GC), classic DMARDs and biologic DMARDs.Methods:We conducted a cross-sectional study in two autoimmune clinics. Patients were invited to answer a survey reporting ILI symptoms between October 2017 and March 2018. ILI definition was considered according to the European Center for Disease Control. Data regarding current IS, diagnostic, disease activity, comorbidities, and vaccination coverage were collected from electronic registry. Patients with history of cancer, HIV, IGIV treatment, or lack of information were excluded. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to access predictors of ILI.Results:We included 109 patients, with mean age 51 years and 81% female gender. The majority of patients had autoimmune arthropathy (n=54) or a connective tissue disease (n=44). Active disease was present in in 39% of patients. IS treatment was: GC 31%, classic DMARD 44%, biologic DMARD 28%. Vaccine coverage was 51%. Overall 41% reported ILI. We did not find any association between studied variables and ILI, including univariate and multivariate analysis. Univariate odds ratio calculation for IS treatment were: GC [OR 1,68 IC 0,7-3,8], classic DMARD [OR 1,03 IC 0,5-2,2], and biologic DMARD [OR 0,86 IC 0,4-2,0]. Comorbidity of pulmonary disease (n=8) may contribute to higher risk to ILI [OR 2,76 IC 0,8-10,0].Conclusion:There was no difference in risk of ILI within different IS treatment regimens, although GC may increase the risk. The study is limited by the subjectivity of the ILI survey and the small size of the sample. The stratification of influenza risk will help in designing better vaccine coverage strategies in this population.References:[1]Nakafero G, Grainge MJ, Myles PR, Mallen CD, Zhang W, Doherty M, Nguyen-Van-Tam JS, Abhishek A.

Abstract
We report on new measurements of m-fold photodetachment (m=2-5) of carbon anions via K-shell excitation and ionization. The experiments were carried out employing the photon-ion merged-beams technique at a synchrotron light source. While previous measurements were restricted to double detachment (m=2) and to just the lowest-energy K-shell resonance at about 282 eV, our absolute experimental m-fold detachment cross sections at photon energies of up to 1000 eV exhibit a wealth of new thresholds and resonances. We tentatively identify these features with the aid of detailed atomic-structure calculations. In particular, we find unambiguous evidence for fivefold detachment via double K-hole production.

Advances on assessing nanotoxicity in marine fish - the pros and cons of combining an ex vivo approach and histopathological analysis in gills. AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2019; 217:105322.

Abstract
The need to overcome logistic and ethical limitations of in vivo nanotoxicity evaluation in marine organisms is essential, mostly when dealing with fish. It is well established that medium/solvent conditions affect dispersion and agglomeration of nanoparticles (NPs), which represents a constraint towards a solid and realistic toxicity appraisal. In this way the pros and cons of an ex vivo approach, using a simplified exposure medium (seawater) and addressing gills histopathology, were explored. The nanotoxic potential of environmentally realistic concentrations of titanium dioxide NPs (TiO2 NPs) was also assessed, disclosing the morpho-functional effects on the gills and the possible uptake/elimination processes. Excised gills of the Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) were directly exposed in artificial seawater to 20 and 200 μg L-1 TiO2 NPs, for 2 h and 4 h. Semi-quantitative and quantitative histological analyses were applied. The normal morphology of the gill's epithelia was only slightly altered in the control, reflecting protective mechanisms against the artificiality of the experimental conditions, which, together with the absence of differences in the global histopathological index (Ih), corroborated that the gill's morpho-functional features were not compromised, thereby validating the proposed ex vivo approach. TiO2 NPs induced moderate severity and dissemination of histopathological lesions. After 2 h, a series of compensatory mechanisms occurred in NP treatments, implying an efficient response of the innate defense system (increasing number of goblet cells) and effective osmoregulatory ability (chloride cells proliferation). After 4 h, gills revealed signs of recovery (normalization of the number of chloride and goblet cells; similar Ih), highlighting the tissue viability and effective elimination and/or neutralization of NPs. The uptake of the TiO2 NPs seemed to be favored by the higher particle sizes. Overall, the proposed approach emerged as a high-throughput, reliable, accurate and ethically commendable methodology for nanotoxicity assessment in marine fish.

Abstract
Background We aim to evaluate the presence of histological artefacts in the surgical margins of human oral fibro-epithelial hyperplasias excised with lasers of different wavelengths, and also electrosurgical scalpel and cold scalpel. Moreover, we aim to determine if some of these instruments could impair the normal histological diagnosis of these lesions. Material and Methods We included 130 consecutive surgical samples of 80 females and 50 males (mean age of 53.82±16.55) with a histological diagnosis of an oral benign fibrous-epithelial hyperplasias. The samples were categorized into 6 groups according to the type of instrument used: CO2 laser group, diode laser group, Er:YAG laser group, Nd:YAG laser group, electrosurgical scalpel group and cold scalpel group. Histological instrument-induced changes were microscopic evaluated and related with clinical and pathological variables. Results The instrument with highest tissue damage extension (TDE) was the electrosurgical scalpel (1002.2µm±434.92), followed by diode laser (913.73 µm±322.45), Nd:YAG (899.83µm±327.75), CO2 laser (538.37µm±170.50), Er:YAG laser (166.47µm±123.85), and at last with fewer alterations the cold scalpel group (2.36µm±7.27) (P< 0.001). The most regular incision was observed in CO2 laser group, followed by Er:YAG laser, Nd:YAG laser, electrosurgical scalpel and diode laser group with the less regular incision using cold scalpel as comparison (P< 0.001). A correlation was found between the incision score and TDE (P< 0.001). Regarding histological diagnosis, no case showed any limitation of diagnosis related with the use of any instrument evaluated. Conclusions Our results suggest that lasers can be used for the excision of oral benign fibrous-epithelial hyperplasias, without hispathological diagnosis limitations, as long as the physical properties of each laser are known and respected. Er:YAG laser have shown to be a laser with few tissue damage extension and with good incision regularity, been a possible instrument of choice for the surgical removal of these lesions. Key words:CO2 laser, diode laser, Er:YAG laser, Nd:YAG laser, oral mucosa.
