Abstract
Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of misalignment, self-modulation in the perpendicular plane, at frequencies close to the plasma electron frequency, and are reproducible. Development of hosing depends on misalignment direction, its growth on misalignment extent and on proton bunch charge. Results have the main characteristics of a theoretical model, are relevant to other plasma-based accelerators and represent the first characterization of hosing.

Abstract
This work focuses on the development and analysis of a new multifunctional facade panel incorporating PCM in foam layers. The thermal performance was analysed recurring to a hotbox heat flux meter method to determine the thermal transmittance (U-value) and the main findings are presented. The experimental setup was based on the steady-state approach, using climatic chambers, assuring a stable thermal environment. Even small fractions of PCM achieved a small reduction in thermal amplitude. Numerical simulations using Ansys Fluent were developed to evaluate the performance of PCM use over a wide range of temperature boundary conditions and operating modes. These numerical models were calibrated and validated using the results of experimental tests, achieving a correlation factor of 0.9674, and, thus, accurately representing a real-world scenario. The decrement factor (f) was used to analyse the data. It was identified that the efficiency of the panel and size of the optimum region increased with the PCM fraction growth. The results showed the significant potential of the multi-layered panel, with the thermal regulator effect of the PCM incorporated, on indoor space temperature so as to reach good thermal comfort levels. The efficiency of the panel can be improved by nearly 50% depending on the input boundary conditions. The efficiency of the panel and the size of the optimum region increase with growth in the PCM fraction. The simulated behaviour was at an optimum when the input mean temperature was 20 °C for a room temperature of between 18-20 °C.

Abstract
A long, narrow, relativistic charged particle bunch propagating in plasma is subject to the self-modulation (SM) instability. We show that SM of a proton bunch can be seeded by the wakefields driven by a preceding electron bunch. SM timing reproducibility and control are at the level of a small fraction of the modulation period. With this seeding method, we independently control the amplitude of the seed wakefields with the charge of the electron bunch and the growth rate of SM with the charge of the proton bunch. Seeding leads to larger growth of the wakefields than in the instability case.

Abstract
Abstract
We are living in an era of fast and fundamental changes with an uneven impact on geographies and generations. The pace of the social transformations and technology innovations is accelerating and outpacing policies and responses in place. Also, the European drug situation and drug markets are becoming more complex and dynamic, with important implications for the EU drug monitoring system and research. Therefore the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) conducted the first ‘futures exercise' to inform the agency's strategic reflection on how to improve the response of the EU monitoring system in the context of rapid changes in the information environment and new information needs. The EMCDDA piloted the usefulness of the foresight approach for transforming the agency and its monitoring activities into a more sensitive and agile system, which could, in turn, help increase Europe's preparedness for future challenges in health and security areas. The ‘futures exercise' applied the horizon-scanning method to study events, issues, and trends affecting the drug area and went far beyond the drugs or the addiction field and the European region. It analysed global drivers of change that may have in the future implications for the drugs situation, drug monitoring and related responses. The methods applied ranged from literature review, thematic analysis, workshops and expert panels. It had a robust participatory component to enable stakeholders representing different disciplines and countries to contribute to and benefit from the process. Out of 14 Megatrends, five were selected as most significant for the drugs field, and the future EMCDDA work: technological change, climate change and environmental degradation, diversified inequalities, shifts in health challenges and population. Moreover, four categories of emerging changes in the drugs field were identified: shifts in drug policy, the discourse of addictions, drug markets and drug services.
Key messages
Foresight is a valuable tool for analysis going beyond specific areas of expertise and recognising that a single-issue focus is often insufficient in dealing with emerging threats and opportunities. A participatory approach contributes to building a shared vision of the major drivers of change impacting the drugs field, information needs and future developments in the EU drug monitoring system.

Abstract
We use a relativistic ionization front to provide various initial transverse wakefield amplitudes for the self-modulation of a long proton bunch in plasma. We show experimentally that, with sufficient initial amplitude [≥(4.1±0.4) MV/m], the phase of the modulation along the bunch is reproducible from event to event, with 3%-7% (of 2π) rms variations all along the bunch. The phase is not reproducible for lower initial amplitudes. We observe the transition between these two regimes. Phase reproducibility is essential for deterministic external injection of particles to be accelerated.

Abstract
We study experimentally the effect of linear plasma density gradients on the self-modulation of a 400 GeV proton bunch. Results show that a positive or negative gradient increases or decreases the number of microbunches and the relative charge per microbunch observed after 10 m of plasma. The measured modulation frequency also increases or decreases. With the largest positive gradient we observe two frequencies in the modulation power spectrum. Results are consistent with changes in wakefields' phase velocity due to plasma density gradients adding to the slow wakefields' phase velocity during self-modulation growth predicted by linear theory.

Abstract
RESUMO Relata-se um caso de melanoma oral disseminado em uma cadela de dois anos, com protrusão de bulbo ocular unilateral e quadro convulsivo progressivo. Os exames de imagem revelaram aumento de volume nas regiões submandibular, maxilar e cerebral, padrão nodular pulmonar e aumento das dimensões ovarianas. A citologia da massa submandibular indicou proliferação epitelial maligna, enquanto a biópsia excisional foi sugestiva de melanoma amelanótico. Na necropsia, havia uma massa gengival localmente infiltrativa e nodulações brancas nos linfonodos, nos rins, no pulmão, no cérebro e nos ovários, indicativas de metástase. O diagnóstico histopatológico consistiu de neoplasia maligna metastática indiferenciada, indicativo de melanoma amelanótico. Células caracterizadas por núcleo com cromatina espessa, múltiplos nucléolos bem evidentes, mitoses atípicas e multinucleações consistiram nos principais critérios de malignidade. No espaço peritrabecular ósseo facial, havia rara diferenciação pigmentar melanocítica, confirmada histoquimicamente pela técnica de Fontana-Massom e Giemsa. Algumas células foram positivas pela imuno-histoquímica para PNL-2 e Melan-A, e o diagnóstico de melanoma amelanótico disseminado foi firmado. A indiferenciação neoplásica marcante, com disseminação metastática multissistêmica e acometimento mútuo de sítios anatômicos pouco comuns, conjuntamente com a ampla variação dos padrões celulares, foi responsável pelo desafio diagnóstico do presente caso, ressaltando o papel decisivo da imuno-histoquímica para confirmação diagnóstica. A importância clínica deste trabalho consiste ainda em alertar a comunidade clínica e científica acerca da dificuldade diagnóstica, devendo-se considerar o melanoma amelanótico como diferencial mesmo em casos de lesões orais menos perceptíveis e/ou desprovidas de pigmentação.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Individual preparedness is critical in mitigating the adverse effect of natural disasters (ND). Factors influencing preparedness are complex and multifaceted, with certain groups having different needs and vulnerabilities. We aimed to explore the factors associated with individual ND preparedness in residents from Vila Nova Gaia (VNG), Portugal.
Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted in VNG, Portugal, in January 2020 (N = 192; ≥18 years). Data on sociodemographic characteristics, risk perception, and preparedness were collected using a structured questionnaire, in parishes randomly selected. Crude and adjusted odds ratio (OR) and respective 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated using logistic regression models.
Results
About 33% of participants aged ≥65 years and 66% had low education. Results show that 20% had a survival kit. In univariate comparisons, older (11% vs. 24%, p=.029) and lower educated participants (≤12th grade: 13% vs. >12th grade: 32%, p=.002) were less likely to have a survival kit; only education remained associated after adjustment for age (OR = 2.61, 95%CI:1.22-5.58). About 21% had a family plan for disaster and only education level is associated (≤12th grade: 17% vs. >12th grade: 29%, p=.040). Almost 35% had a family member with basic life support training; older age, lower education and higher risk perception were negatively associated and these remained after adjustment (≥65 vs. <65 years OR = 0.36, 95%CI:0.16-0.77; ≤12th vs. >12th grade OR = 0.40, 95%CI:0.21-0.78; risk perception OR = 0.66, 95%CI:0.45-0.95). Only 22% participated in community drills; older people (6% vs. 31%, p<.001) and less educated (14% vs. 39%, p<.001) were less likely to have ever participated, which persisted in multivariate model.
Conclusions
Our findings revealed a low-level of ND preparedness, and older and less educated people seem to present worse preparedness. This highlights the need to design specific public health interventions among these groups.
Key messages
We found a low-level of individual preparedness for natural disasters in VNG, Portugal. Community-based public health interventions are needed to improve individual preparedness for natural disasters. Specific interventions targeting older and less educated people should be designed to decrease their vulnerability facing a natural disaster.

Abstract
Abstract
While the slogan of a fit for purpose workforce pushes us to consider qualitative aspects, there are still quantitative aspects that need further consideration. In some planning and forecast processes, greater quantitative detail should be considered. We use an example from Portugal to explore this matter in the Public Health workforce (PHW). In 2019, for the first time, all Public Health Units (PHU) were supposed to fill in a plan of action on a public online platform. This included some self-reported data on their PHW.
We have used this data to explore which and how many professionals were available in each of the PHU, also having in mind their percentage of work hours dedicated to the PHU and their gender. For this analysis, we have used Microsoft Office Excel 365, R 3.6.1, RStudio 1.2.5033, and ArcMap 10.7.1.
Of the 55 PHU in Portugal, 12 (21,8%) did not publish their Plan, 2 (3,6%) were released without being correctly filled, and 3 (5,4%) with substantial data regarding their human resources being incomplete. In total, the plans identified 220 public health medical specialists, 130 medical residents, 184 nurses, 136 secretaries, and 314 other professionals. From the reported data, there was an average of the percentage of week hours dedicated to the PHU of 82,8% for medical specialists, 71,8% for nurses, 89,8% for secretaries, and 92,1% for other professionals. In what concerns gender distribution, women represented 60,9% of medical specialists, but only 52,6% of PHU coordinators, 55,5% of medical residents, 86,4% of nurses, 83,7% of secretaries, and 77,7% of the remaining professionals. There were considerable differences between PHU in these results.
These results might differ from formal administrative data. However, due to being reported from the PHU themselves might portrait a more realistic picture of the local public health workforce. These results underline the importance of the hours dedicated to the PHU in the planning and forecasting of the PHW.
Key messages
The % of time PH professionals dedicate to their Unit should be included in Workforce planning. Greater adherence to the Portuguese public platform for action plans is needed.

Abstract
In this article, we briefly summarize the experiments performed during the first run of the Advanced Wakefield Experiment, AWAKE, at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research). The final goal of AWAKE Run 1 (2013-2018) was to demonstrate that 10-20 MeV electrons can be accelerated to GeV energies in a plasma wakefield driven by a highly relativistic self-modulated proton bunch. We describe the experiment, outline the measurement concept and present first results. Last, we outline our plans for the future. This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue 'Directions in particle beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration'.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have shown differences in susceptibility to infections and immune response to vaccines by sex. Prematurely born infants are at higher risk for pneumococcal diseases, with lower effectiveness for some vaccines compared to term infants. We have reported the effectiveness of the 10-valent pneumococcal non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae protein D conjugate vaccine (PHiD-CV10) on several endpoints in the Finnish Invasive Pneumococcal disease (FinIP) vaccine trial. Now, we present the results of a post-hoc analysis evaluating PHiD-CV10 effectiveness in subgroups by sex, gestational age, and birth weight. METHODS The FinIP trial was a phase III/IV cluster-randomized, double-blind trial. Infants enrolled < 7 months of age received PHiD-CV10 in two thirds of clusters (3 + 1 or 2 + 1 schedule) and hepatitis B vaccine as control in remaining third. Outcome data included invasive pneumococcal disease, pneumonia, tympanostomy tube placements, and antimicrobial purchases collected through national, routinely used health registers. Negative binomial model was used in the incidence and vaccine effectiveness estimation, and differences in incidences between subgroups were tested among control children. RESULTS Of the 30,527 infants enrolled 51% were boys. The incidences of hospital-diagnosed pneumonia and otitis-related outcomes were higher among boys in control groups. There were no significant sex differences in the vaccine effectiveness estimates. Altogether, 1519 (5%) infants were born before 37th gestational week. The incidences of pneumonia outcomes were higher among premature infants when compared to term infants. The vaccine effectiveness estimates among preterm infants were not statistically significant except for antimicrobial purchases, but all point estimates were at the same level among preterm infants as among term infants. There was no significant difference between 2 + 1 and 3 + 1 schedules in any of the subgroups analysed. CONCLUSION PHiD-CV10 had a similar effectiveness in both sexes, and seemed to be protective in preterm infants. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00861380 and NCT00839254.

Abstract
We give direct experimental evidence for the observation of the full transverse self-modulation of a long, relativistic proton bunch propagating through a dense plasma. The bunch exits the plasma with a periodic density modulation resulting from radial wakefield effects. We show that the modulation is seeded by a relativistic ionization front created using an intense laser pulse copropagating with the proton bunch. The modulation extends over the length of the proton bunch following the seed point. By varying the plasma density over one order of magnitude, we show that the modulation frequency scales with the expected dependence on the plasma density, i.e., it is equal to the plasma frequency, as expected from theory.

Abstract
We measure the effects of transverse wakefields driven by a relativistic proton bunch in plasma with densities of 2.1×10^{14} and 7.7×10^{14} electrons/cm^{3}. We show that these wakefields periodically defocus the proton bunch itself, consistently with the development of the seeded self-modulation process. We show that the defocusing increases both along the bunch and along the plasma by using time resolved and time-integrated measurements of the proton bunch transverse distribution. We evaluate the transverse wakefield amplitudes and show that they exceed their seed value (<15 MV/m) and reach over 300 MV/m. All these results confirm the development of the seeded self-modulation process, a necessary condition for external injection of low energy and acceleration of electrons to multi-GeV energy levels.

Abstract
High-energy particle accelerators have been crucial in providing a deeper understanding of fundamental particles and the forces that govern their interactions. To increase the energy of the particles or to reduce the size of the accelerator, new acceleration schemes need to be developed. Plasma wakefield acceleration1–5, in which the electrons in a plasma are excited, leading to strong electric fields (so called ‘wakefields’), is one such promising acceleration technique. Experiments have shown that an intense laser pulse6–9 or electron bunch10,11 traversing a plasma can drive electric fields of tens of gigavolts per metre and above—well beyond those achieved in conventional radio-frequency accelerators (about 0.1 gigavolt per metre). However, the low stored energy of laser pulses and electron bunches means that multiple acceleration stages are needed to reach very high particle energies5,12. The use of proton bunches is compelling because they have the potential to drive wakefields and to accelerate electrons to high energy in a single acceleration stage13. Long, thin proton bunches can be used because they undergo a process called self-modulation14–16, a particle–plasma interaction that splits the bunch longitudinally into a series of high-density microbunches, which then act resonantly to create large wakefields. The Advanced Wakefield (AWAKE) experiment at CERN17–19 uses high-intensity proton bunches—in which each proton has an energy of 400 gigaelectronvolts, resulting in a total bunch energy of 19 kilojoules—to drive a wakefield in a ten-metre-long plasma. Electron bunches are then injected into this wakefield. Here we present measurements of electrons accelerated up to two gigaelectronvolts at the AWAKE experiment, in a demonstration of proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration. Measurements were conducted under various plasma conditions and the acceleration was found to be consistent and reliable. The potential for this scheme to produce very high-energy electron bunches in a single accelerating stage20 means that our results are an important step towards the development of future high-energy particle accelerators21,22. Electron acceleration to very high energies is achieved in a single step by injecting electrons into a ‘wake’ of charge created in a 10-metre-long plasma by speeding long proton bunches.

Abstract
Amyloodiniosis represents a major bottleneck for semi-intensive aquaculture production in Southern Europe, causing extremely high mortalities. Amyloodinium ocellatum is a parasitic dinoflagellate that can infest almost all fish, crustacean and bivalves that live within its ecological range. Fish mortalities are usually attributed to anoxia, associated with serious gill hyperplasia, inflammation, haemorrhage and necrosis in heavy infestations; or with osmoregulatory impairment and secondary microbial infections due to severe epithelial damage in mild infestation. However, physiological information about the host responses to A. ocellatum infestation is scarce. In this work, we analysed the proteome of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) plasma and relate it with haematological and immunological indicators, in order to enlighten the different physiological responses when exposed to an A. ocellatum outbreak. Using 2D-DIGE, immunological and haematological analysis and in response to the A. ocellatum contamination we have identified several proteins associated with acute-phase response, inflammation, lipid transport, homoeostasis, and osmoregulation, wound healing, neoplasia and iron transport. Overall, this preliminary study revealed that amyloodiniosis affects some fish functional pathways as revealed by the changes in the plasma proteome of S. aurata, and that the innate immunological system is not activated in the presence of the parasite.

Abstract
AIMS To prospectively validate the existing classifications to stratify subjects with diabetes mellitus (DM) by their risk of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU), in high and low risk settings. METHODS A prospective multicentre cohort study was conducted, including 446 subjects with DM without active DFU followed in the hospital or primary care setting. Demographic, clinical characterization variables, and those included in the classifications were collected at baseline. Subjects were followed for 1year, until DFU or death. RESULTS In our sample, with a mean age of 65years, 52% were male; 32 developed a DFU, 7 required an amputation and 18 died. Differences were found between participants' characteristics and classifications' accuracy according to the setting. The great majority of the variables were associated with higher DFU risk. Globally, classifications were highly and equally valid, positive predictive values (PV) were inferior to 40%, negative PV superior to 90% and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve superior to 0.75. DISCUSSION All the existing classifications are valid to be applied in high risk clinical context and have a very high capacity to categorize as low risk those subjects that will not develop a DFU. Further research is needed in the primary care setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that the clinical course of venous thromboembolism in patients with active cancer may differ according to the specificities of primary tumor site. AIM AND METHODS We used data from RIETE (international registry of patients with venous thromboembolism) to compare the clinical venous thromboembolism-related outcomes during the course of anticoagulation in patients with one of the 4 more frequent cancers (breast, prostate, colorectal, or lung cancer). RESULTS As of September 2014, 3947 cancer patients were recruited, of whom 938 had breast, 629 prostate, 1189 colorectal, and 1191 lung cancer. Overall, 55% had metastatic disease (42%, 36%, 53%, and 72%, respectively). During the course of anticoagulant therapy (mean duration, 139 days), the rate of thromboembolic recurrences was similar to the rate of major bleeding in patients with breast (5.6 [95% confidence interval (CI), 3.8-8.1] vs 4.1 [95% CI, 2.7-5.9] events per 100 patient-years) or colorectal cancer (10 [95% CI, 7.6-13] vs 12 [95% CI, 9.4-15] per 100 patient-years). In contrast, in patients with prostate cancer, the rate of venous thromboembolic recurrences was half the rate of major bleeding (6.9 [95% CI, 4.4-10] vs 13 [95% CI, 9.2-17] events per 100 patient-years), whereas in those with lung cancer, the rate of thromboembolic recurrences was twofold higher than the rate of major bleeding (27 [95% CI, 22-23] vs 11 [95% CI, 8.6-15] per 100 patient-years). CONCLUSIONS Significant differences in the clinical profile of venous thromboembolic-related outcomes were observed according to the site of cancer. These findings suggest the development of cancer-specific anticoagulant strategies as an area for further research.

Abstract
Workers are exposed to dust in broiler chicken production during daily work activities. Poultry dust may contain inflammatory agents (e.g., endotoxin) and inhalation exposure has been associated with pulmonary symptoms. Current practice to reduce worker exposure to poultry dust is the use of respiratory protection (e.g., elastomeric face-piece respirator with a P100 and ammonia chemical cartridge). Limited research has been conducted to evaluate engineering controls to reduce dust and ammonia concentrations in broiler chicken production; therefore, the purpose of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of a water sprinkling system to reduce inhalable dust and ammonia concentrations in a broiler chicken house. Inhalable dust and ammonia concentrations were measured daily for the production cycle of a flock of broiler chickens (63 days). Inhalable dust was measured gravimetrically using an inhalable sampler and ammonia was measured by a direct reading sensor. Sampling was performed on a stationary mannequin inside two broiler chicken houses. One house used a sprinkler cooling system to deliver a water mist throughout the house and the second house was an untreated control. The sprinkler system activated after day 5 of chicken placement, releasing water periodically from 6 am to 10 pm. The amount of sprinkling increased at day 10 and day 15 as recommended by the manufacturer. Geometric mean (GM) inhalable dust concentrations measured in the treatment house (5.5 mg/m3) were not different (p = 0.33) than those found in the control house (6.0 mg/m3). The GM ammonia concentrations were also not different (p = 0.34) across the treatment and control house [10.6 ppm (GSD: 1.80); GM 9.51 ppm (GSD: 1.77)], respectively. The use of cost effective engineering, administrative and personal exposure controls are needed in the poultry industry to effectively reduce worker's exposure to hazardous concentrations of dust and ammonia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We report the results of International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) surveillance study from January 2010-December 2015 in 703 intensive care units (ICUs) in Latin America, Europe, Eastern Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, and Western Pacific. METHODS During the 6-year study period, using Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Healthcare Safety Network (CDC-NHSN) definitions for device-associated health care-associated infection (DA-HAI), we collected prospective data from 861,284 patients hospitalized in INICC hospital ICUs for an aggregate of 3,506,562 days. RESULTS Although device use in INICC ICUs was similar to that reported from CDC-NHSN ICUs, DA-HAI rates were higher in the INICC ICUs: in the INICC medical-surgical ICUs, the pooled rate of central line-associated bloodstream infection, 4.1 per 1,000 central line-days, was nearly 5-fold higher than the 0.8 per 1,000 central line-days reported from comparable US ICUs, the overall rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia was also higher, 13.1 versus 0.9 per 1,000 ventilator-days, as was the rate of catheter-associated urinary tract infection, 5.07 versus 1.7 per 1,000 catheter-days. From blood cultures samples, frequencies of resistance of Pseudomonas isolates to amikacin (29.87% vs 10%) and to imipenem (44.3% vs 26.1%), and of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates to ceftazidime (73.2% vs 28.8%) and to imipenem (43.27% vs 12.8%) were also higher in the INICC ICUs compared with CDC-NHSN ICUs. CONCLUSIONS Although DA-HAIs in INICC ICU patients continue to be higher than the rates reported in CDC-NSHN ICUs representing the developed world, we have observed a significant trend toward the reduction of DA-HAI rates in INICC ICUs as shown in each international report. It is INICC's main goal to continue facilitating education, training, and basic and cost-effective tools and resources, such as standardized forms and an online platform, to tackle this problem effectively and systematically.

Abstract
The impacts of climate and land use changes on streamflow and sediment export were evaluated for a humid (São Lourenço) and a dry (Guadalupe) Mediterranean catchment, using the SWAT model. SWAT was able to produce viable streamflow and sediment export simulations for both catchments, which provided a baseline for investigating climate and land use changes under the A1B and B1 emission scenarios for 2071-2100. Compared to the baseline scenario (1971-2000), climate change scenarios showed a decrease in annual rainfall for both catchments (humid: -12%; dry: -8%), together with strong increases in rainfall during winter. Land use changes were derived from a socio-economic storyline in which traditional agriculture is replaced by more profitable land uses (i.e. corn and commercial forestry at the humid site; sunflower at the dry site). Climate change projections showed a decrease in streamflow for both catchments, whereas sediment export decreased only for the São Lourenço catchment. Land use changes resulted in an increase in streamflow, but the erosive response differed between catchments. The combination of climate and land use change scenarios led to a reduction in streamflow for both catchments, suggesting a domain of the climatic response. As for sediments, contrasting results were observed for the humid (A1B: -29%; B1: -22%) and dry catchment (A1B: +222%; B1: +5%), which is mainly due to differences in the present-day and forecasted vegetation types. The results highlight the importance of climate-induced land-use change impacts, which could be similar to or more severe than the direct impacts of climate change alone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vaccine effectiveness of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines against culture-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease has been well documented. In the Finnish Invasive Pneumococcal disease (FinIP) trial, we reported vaccine effectiveness and absolute rate reduction against laboratory-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease (confirmation by culture or antigen or DNA detection irrespective of serotype). Here, we assessed vaccine effectiveness of PHiD-CV10 against clinically suspected invasive pneumococcal disease in children by use of diagnoses coded in hospital discharge registers. METHODS For this phase 3/4 cluster-randomised, double-blind trial, undertaken between Feb 18, 2009, and Dec 31, 2011, in municipal health-care centres and the Tampere University Vaccine Research Centre (Finland), we randomly assigned (2:2:1:1) 78 clusters into PHiD-CV10 three plus one, PHiD-CV10 two plus one, control three plus one, control two plus one groups (26:26:13:13 clusters) to give PHiD-CV10 in either three plus one or two plus one schedule (if enrolled before 7 months of age; infant schedules), two plus one (if enrolled between 7 and 11 months; catch-up schedules), and two doses at least 6 months apart (if enrolled between 12 and 18 months; catch-up schedules). Children were eligible if they had not received and were not anticipated to receive any of the study vaccines and had no general contraindications to vaccinations. We collected all inpatient and outpatient discharge notifications from the national hospital discharge register with International Classification of Diseases (ICD) 10 diagnoses compatible with invasive pneumococcal disease or unspecified sepsis, and verified data with patient files. We excluded invasive pneumococcal disease cases confirmed by positive culture or DNA/RNA detection from normally sterile body fluid. The primary objective was to estimate vaccine effectiveness against all register-based non-laboratory-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease or unspecified sepsis and patient-file verified non-laboratory-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease in infants younger than 7 months at enrolment. Masked follow-up lasted from the date of the first vaccination to Dec 31, 2011. Vaccine effectiveness was calculated against all episodes. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, numbers NCT00861380 and NCT00839254. FINDINGS We enrolled 47,366 children. On the basis of ICD-10 diagnoses, we recorded 264 episodes of register-based non-laboratory-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease or unspecified sepsis, of which 102 were patient-file verified non-laboratory-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease. The vaccine effectiveness was 50% (95% CI 32-63) in the 30,527 infants with three plus one and two plus one schedules combined and the absolute incidence rate reduction was 207 episodes per 100,000 person-years (95% CI 127-286). The vaccine effectiveness against the patient-file verified non-laboratory-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease was 71% (95% CI 52-83) in infant three plus one and two plus one schedules combined. The absolute rate reduction was 142 episodes per 100,000 person-years (95% CI 91-191) in infant cohorts. INTERPRETATION This vaccine-probe analysis is the first report showing the effect of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines on clinically suspected invasive pneumococcal disease. The absolute rate reduction was markedly higher compared with laboratory-confirmed invasive pneumococcal disease, which implies low sensitivity of the laboratory-based case definitions and subsequently higher public health effect of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines against invasive pneumococcal disease than previously estimated.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The immunogenicity, reactogenicity and safety of the 10- valent pneumococcal non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae protein D conjugate vaccine (PHiD-CV) were evaluated in a cohort of Nigerian infants included in a study conducted in Mali and Nigeria (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00678301). SUBJECTS AND METHODS In this open, randomised, controlled study, 119 healthy infants received combined diphtheria-tetanus-whole-cell pertussis-hepatitis B/ Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine (DTPw-HBV/Hib) and oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) co-administered with PHiD-CV (PHiD-CV group) or without PHiD-CV (control group) at 6-10-14 weeks of age. Pneumococcal antibody responses and opsonophagocytic activity were measured and adverse events were recorded. RESULTS One month post-dose 3, for each of the vaccine pneumococcal serotypes, e"90.1% of PHiD-CV recipients had an antibody concentration e"0.2 ug/mL compared to < 9 % (except for serotypes 14 [32.4%] and 19F [27.8%]) in the control group. For each of the vaccine pneumococcal serotypes, e"90.6% of infants in the PHiD-CV group had an OPA titre e"8, compared to % 18% (except for serotype 7F [60.0%]) in the control group. Anti-protein D antibody geometric mean antibody concentrations were 2949.7 EL.U/mL in the PHiD-CV group and 68.9 EL.U/mL in the control group. For each DTPw-HBV/Hib antigen antibody seroprotection/seropositivity rates were e"94.4%. Tolerability was generally comparable between the PHiD-CV and control vaccination groups. CONCLUSIONS PHiD-CV co-administered with routine vaccines was immunogenic for all vaccine pneumococcal serotypes and protein D in Nigerian infants. Vaccine tolerability was generally comparable between the PHiD-CV and control groups. These results suggest PHiD-CV can be co-administered with other vaccines included in the National Programme on Immunisation.

Abstract
Core-mantle differentiation is the largest event experienced by a growing planet during its early history. Terrestrial core segregation imprinted the residual mantle composition by scavenging siderophile (iron-loving) elements such as tungsten, cobalt and sulphur. Cosmochemical constraints suggest that about 97% of Earth's sulphur should at present reside in the core, which implies that the residual silicate mantle should exhibit fractionated (34)S/(32)S ratios according to the relevant metal-silicate partition coefficients, together with fractionated siderophile element abundances. However, Earth's mantle has long been thought to be both homogeneous and chondritic for (34)S/(32)S, similar to Canyon Diablo troilite, as it is for most siderophile elements. This belief was consistent with a mantle sulphur budget dominated by late-accreted chondritic components. Here we show that the mantle, as sampled by mid-ocean ridge basalts from the south Atlantic ridge, displays heterogeneous (34)S/(32)S ratios, directly correlated to the strontium and neodymium isotope ratios (87)Sr/(86)Sr and (143)Nd/(144)Nd. These isotope trends are compatible with binary mixing between a low-(34)S/(32)S ambient mantle and a high-(34)S/(32)S recycled component that we infer to be subducted sediments. The depleted end-member is characterized by a significantly negative δ(34)S of -1.28 ± 0.33‰ that cannot reach a chondritic value even when surface sulphur (from continents, altered oceanic crust, sediments and oceans) is added. Such a non-chondritic (34)S/(32)S ratio for the silicate Earth could be accounted for by a core-mantle differentiation record in which the core has a (34)S/(32)S ratio slightly higher than that of chondrites (δ(34)S = +0.07‰). Despite evidence for late-veneer addition of siderophile elements (and therefore sulphur) after core formation, our results imply that the mantle sulphur budget retains fingerprints of core-mantle differentiation.

Abstract
The present study aims to assess the effects of cigarette smoke inhalation and/or coffee consumption on bone formation and osseous integration of a dense hydroxyapatite (DHA) implant in rats. For this study, 20 male rats were divided into four groups (n = 5): CT (control) group, CE (coffee) group, CI (cigarette) group and CC (coffee + cigarette) group. During 16 weeks, animals in the CI group were exposed to cigarette smoke inhalation equivalent to 6 cigarettes per day; specimens in the CE group drank coffee as liquid diet; and rats in the CC group were submitted to both substances. In the 6th week a 5 mm slit in the parietal bone and a 4 mm slit in the tibia were performed on the left side: the former was left open while the latter received a DHA implant. As soon as surgeries were finished, the animals returned to their original protocols and after 10 weeks of exposure they were euthanised (ethically sacrificed) and the mentioned bones collected for histological processing. Data showed that exposure to cigarette smoke inhalation and coffee consumption did not interfere in weight gain and that solid and liquid diet consumption was satisfactory. Rats in the CC group showed a decrease in bone neoformation around the tibial DHA implant (31.8 ± 2.8) as well as in bone formation in the parietal slit (28.6 ± 2.2). On their own, cigarette smoke inhalation or coffee consumption also led to diminished bone neoformation around the implant and delayed the bone repair process in relation to the CT group. However, reduction in the bone repair process was accentuated with exposure to both cigarette smoke inhalation and coffee consumption in this study.

Abstract
Juvenile meagre Argyrosomus regius (Asso, 1809) maintained in experimental conditions developed lateral and/or bilateral circular-shaped sarcoma within the opercular cavity. The sarcoma was dense, reddish and its growth from the branchial arch exerted pressure on the operculum forcing it to open. Histologically, the neoplasm exhibited marked proliferation of mesenchymal connective tissue composed largely of fusiform cells, which developed in a solid pattern accompanied by abundant mononuclear cell types. Multifocal areas of discrete necrosis were also observed, compatible with a sarcomatous proliferation. The immunological parameters analysed suggested an inflammatory response. No bacteria were isolated from the hematopoietic organs. However, Vibrio species, components of the normal seawater flora, were isolated from the tumour, which may have had a role in eliciting the immune response. No evidence of viral pathogens was found by electron microscopy. In order to look for cytogenetic alterations often linked to sarcomas, the diploid number and karyotype of this species were determined for the first time. An increase in the aneuploidy level was observed in sarcoma cell metaphase stages compared to other tissues. The aetiology of this tumour remains unknown.

Abstract
Foram examinados, por meio de eletrocardiografia, 14 equinos Puro Sangue Árabe, 12 machos e duas fêmeas, desclassificados por exaustão em provas de enduro entre 60 e 160km. Foi observado predomínio de taquicardia sinusal, seguido de arritmia sinusal e complexo atrial prematuro com a frequência cardíaca variando de 48 a 78bpm e 93 a 111bpm, respectivamente. Ocorreu aumento da amplitude das ondas P, R, S e T e redução nas suas durações, bem como redução nos intervalos e segmentos, porém o complexo QRS quase não se alterou. O alongamento observado do QTc indicou fadiga miocárdica moderada em resposta ao exercício, e o supradesnível ST foi indicativo de hipovolemia. O eixo elétrico no plano frontal apresentou desvio à direita, aumento de câmara e hipertrofia secundários ao treinamento

Abstract
Compararam-se os efeitos da ventilação espontânea (V E) e controlada (V C) em equinos submetidos à mudança de decúbito durante anestesia. Dezesseis animais foram equitativamente divididos em dois grupos: V E e V C. Os procedimentos cirúrgicos foram iniciados com os animais em decúbito lateral esquerdo (DLE) e, após 75 minutos, os animais foram reposicionados em decúbito lateral direito (DLD). Análises hemogasométricas do sangue arterial foram realizadas após 30 e 75 minutos com os animais posicionados em cada decúbito (M1 e M2 no DLE e M3 e M4 no DLD, respectivamente). Durante a V E, observaram-se hipercapnia (PaCO2 >45mmHg), acidose respiratória (pH <7,35), redução significativa da oxigenação sanguínea após 75min da mudança de decúbito (M4: 205,8±124,7mmHg) em relação aos valores de PaO2 observados antes da mudança de posicionamento (M1: 271,8±84,8mmHg). A Vc foi associada a valores de PaCO2 e pH mais próximos da normalidade bem como resultou em valores de PaO2 significativamente maiores (52 a 96% de elevação nos valores médios) que a V E. Conclui-se que a mudança de decúbito, em equinos anestesiados com halotano e mantidos sob V E, resulta em hipercapnia, acidose respiratória e diminuição dos valores de PaO2. A instituição de V C, desde o início da anestesia, previne a acidose respiratória, além de resultar em valores de PaO2 mais próximos do ideal para animais respirando O2 a 100%.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Menopause is associated with a decrease in fat-free mass and an increase in fat mass. Sarcopenic obesity is more strongly associated with physical limitations than either obesity or sarcopenia and their effect in plantar pressure is not known. Consequently, the scope of the present study was to examine the effect of obesity and sarcopenic obesity on plantar pressure of postmenopausal women, during walking. METHODS Body composition and biomechanics parameters of plantar pressure were assessed in 239 postmenopausal women. FINDINGS Compared to non-obese and non-sarcopenic women, obese postmenopausal women have higher peak pressure in the metatarsal areas 1, 4, 5, midfoot and lateral heel and higher absolute impulses in all metatarsal and heel areas. On the other hand, sarcopenic obese postmenopausal women presented higher peak pressure and absolute impulses under all metatarsal areas, midfoot and heels. When the absolute values of maximal peak pressures and absolute impulses were normalised to body mass, pressure increases were only perceived for midfoot. INTERPRETATION The pressure increase found in different foot areas of obese and particularly in sarcopenic obese could cause discomfort and pain in the foot. Sarcopenic obese postmenopausal women also present a higher loading during the stance phase comparing with non-sarcopenic non-obese, fact that might limit their basic daily activity tasks, such as walking.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Yellow dye tartrazine is a potential cause of exacerbations of asthma, allergic rhinitis and urticaria in atopic patients. The Brazilian Sanitary Surveillance Agency (ANVISA) published a consultation about the possibility of issuing a label warning addressing these potential effects of food and drugs containing tartrazine. The present study aims to evaluate tartrazine dye safety in atopic subjects suffering from allergic rhinitis, asthma, urticaria or sensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). METHODS Atopic patients with allergic rhinitis, asthma, urticaria or pseudo-allergic reactions to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were studied (n=26). The gold standard, double-blind placebo controlled, crossed-over challenge was used RESULTS There were no statistical differences between placebo and drug in cutaneous, respiratory or cardiovascular aspects. CONCLUSIONS In a group of atopic subjects with allergic rhinitis, asthma, urticaria or pseudo-allergic reactions to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, the administration of 35 mg of the tartrazine dye did not precipitate any kind of significant cutaneous, respiratory or cardiovascular reactions when compared to placebo.
