Abstract
Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus are the main vectors transmitting dengue and chikungunya viruses. Despite being pathogens of global public health importance, knowledge of their vectors’ global distribution remains patchy and sparse. A global geographic database of known occurrences of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus between 1960 and 2014 was compiled. Herein we present the database, which comprises occurrence data linked to point or polygon locations, derived from peer-reviewed literature and unpublished studies including national entomological surveys and expert networks. We describe all data collection processes, as well as geo-positioning methods, database management and quality-control procedures. This is the first comprehensive global database of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus occurrence, consisting of 19,930 and 22,137 geo-positioned occurrence records respectively. Both datasets can be used for a variety of mapping and spatial analyses of the vectors and, by inference, the diseases they transmit.

Abstract
Dengue and chikungunya are increasing global public health concerns due to their rapid geographical spread and increasing disease burden. Knowledge of the contemporary distribution of their shared vectors, Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus remains incomplete and is complicated by an ongoing range expansion fuelled by increased global trade and travel. Mapping the global distribution of these vectors and the geographical determinants of their ranges is essential for public health planning. Here we compile the largest contemporary database for both species and pair it with relevant environmental variables predicting their global distribution. We show Aedes distributions to be the widest ever recorded; now extensive in all continents, including North America and Europe. These maps will help define the spatial limits of current autochthonous transmission of dengue and chikungunya viruses. It is only with this kind of rigorous entomological baseline that we can hope to project future health impacts of these viruses. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.08347.001 Mosquitoes spread many disease-causing viruses and parasites between people and other animals, including viral infections such as dengue and chikungunya. Both infections cause high fevers often accompanied with excruciating joint pain or other flu-like symptoms. Dengue and chikungunya have become growing public health problems over the last fifty years. Today about half of the world's population is at risk of dengue infection, while chikungunya outbreaks, which were previously limited to Africa and Asia, have recently been reported in the Caribbean, South America and Europe. The dengue and chikungunya viruses are transmitted between people by two species of mosquitoes called Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus. Therefore it is important to work out where these mosquito species are found around the globe to identify the areas at risk. It is also important to predict where these species could become established if they were introduced, in order to identify areas that could become at risk in the future. Kraemer et al. now provide updated predictions about the distribution of these two mosquito species around the globe. These predictions are based upon the most up-to-date data on the known locations of the species combined with information on environmental conditions across the globe. The updated maps show that these Aedes mosquitoes are now found across all continents, including North America and Europe. Aedes albopictus mosquitoes in particular are rapidly expanding their territory around the globe. Kraemer et al. used their new maps to show that, unlike in the United States, many of the areas in Europe and China that could support this mosquito species do not yet appear to have been colonized. These findings provide a map of the distribution of both species as it stands at the moment. Further work is now needed to better understand which factors are contributing to the rapid expansion of these mosquitoes' range and what might be done to control this spread.

Abstract
PURPOSE To present our results with the minimally invasive thoracotomy (MIT) in patients with valve disease and to describe a new type of thoracotomy. METHODS Twenty-five patients with valve disease as the major cardiac problem were operated during a five month period. Two types of incisions were used: one in an inverted-T fashion and another in a H fashion. Fourteen patients were submitted to an inverted-T incision and eleven to a H incision. In 24% of the patients reoperation was being performed. RESULTS The incisions ranged from 7.5 to 11 cm (mean 9.1 cm), mean ICU stay was 31 h and hospital stay 4.8 days. In all but one patient the operation could be adequately in performed through the MIT, in only one patient total sternotomy had to be performed. CONCLUSION The MIT may have some advantages such as, better aesthetic results, less pain and more sternal stability. These factors may improve early extubation and decrease hospital stay. The H type incision allows an adequate exposition of the most central part of the chest and all heart valves with adequate exposure. This technique led to no complications during reoperations and we believe it to be as safe as the total sternotomy.

Abstract
This report summarizes the surgical experience and early results obtained at four surgical centers in the northeast and south of Brazil. From December 1977 to September 1986, 95 operations were performed on 93 patients, ages 11-59. Bilateral lesions occurred in 42 patients, right lesions in 39, and left lesions in 12. Ventricular decortication and removal of thrombi were performed in all. In right-sided lesions, the tricuspid valve was substituted by a bioprosthesis in 34 cases, and substituted by a tilting disk valve in 1 case. In 4 patients, the valve could be preserved. The left-sided lesions led to valve substition by a bioprosthesis in 11 cases, and preservation of the valve in 1. The bilateral lesions needed bioprosthesis in the mitral position in 37 patients, and a disk valve in 2. In these 39 instances, the valvular procedure was insertion of a tricuspid bioprosthesis. Three tricuspid and three mitral plasties were performed. The overall mortality was 20% (26.2% for bilateral lesions, 14.6% for the right-sided lesions, and 20% for the left-sided lesions). The main cause of death was low cardiac output. Aside from a variable degree of right and left ventricular failure, many other non-fatal complications clouded the postoperative course. Complete AV blocks occurred in 10 cases, with the need for permanent pacing in 7 survivors. The mortality and morbidity in the present series is in keeping with the results reported in current literature. Regarding the advanced stage of their patients' disease, the authors agree with the recommendation for earlier surgical intervention.

Abstract
Eighty out of eighty-six patients (93%) with mammary artery implants were followed postoperatively for an average of three and a half years. The immediate mortality rate was 7% (6 cases), and the late mortality was 6% (5 cases). All had angina preoperatively. Twenty-four had a history of myocardial infarction and thirty-one were on limited physical activity, because of the pain. After surgery, thirty-three (45%) became asymptomatic. The angina improved significantly in thirty-five (47%) and remained unchanged in six (8%). Improvement in ventricular repolarization on ECG was observed in 69% of the patients. Postoperative cineangiography was performed in twenty-three patients; thirteen with single and ten with double implants. Out of the total of thirty-three implants, four (12%) were obstructed and twenty-seven patent (82%); twenty were in two cases of double implant, only one implant could be satisfactorily studied effectively functioning (61%). No obstructions were seen in the single implants. Non functioning implants were found in five (38%) of the thirteen single implants and in two of the twenty double ones (10%). The highest incidence of obstruction or non-functioning implants occurred in the group that did not show improvement (43%). This rate fell to 40% in the group that had some improvement and to 29% in those that were completely asymptomatic. Twelve of the eighteen patent mammary implants (67%) on the anterior wall of the left ventricle and eight of nine (89%) on the lateroinferior wall, established collateral circulation to the coronaries. Indication for surgery was considered satisfactory for nineteen out of the twenty-three patients and poor in four. There were two cases of obstruction of the implant (7%) in the group where surgery was correctly indicated and three of the twenty-three (11%) patent implants were non-functioning. Clinical improvement of the angina occurred in 84% in the first group and 50% in the other. In conclusion, this technique of indirect revascularization of the myocardium is valid for patients with severe diffuse lesions of the coronaries with a collateral network and preserved myocardial contractility.
