    Abstract As opposed to other Peruvian films, where the Andes appear showcased as a transit territory which must be fled, in Los Perros Hambrientos (1976), Cuzquean filmmaker Luis Figueroa shares a view of the mountains and fields as a political place of possibility and resistance against the landowner’s arrogance. While it dramatically differs from the original novel by Ciro Alegría, it also finds in the text the necessary basis to show the moral decadence of the landowner, to abandon the bucolic nostalgia and the animal parable of the text, and submerge itself in the savage dichotomies of rich man / poor man and peasant versus landowner.

    Abstract Investigations on the microbiota in neurological diseases such as stroke are increasingly common; however, stroke researchers may have limited experience with designing such studies. Here, we describe a protocol to conduct a stroke microbiota study in mice, from experimental stroke surgery and sample collection to data analysis. We provide details on sample processing and sequencing and provide a reproducible data analysis pipeline. In doing so, we hope to enable researchers to conduct robust studies and facilitate identification of stroke-associated microbial signatures. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Sorbie et al. (2022).

    Abstract Introduction: Black birthing people in the United States disproportionately endure inequitable experiences and outcomes during pregnancy and childbirth via structural, interpersonal, and obstetric racism. In this study, the researchers explore provider perspectives of how racism is perpetuated in institutional perinatal and reproductive health care.
    Methods: Critical Race Theory, Reproductive Justice, and midwifery theory were operationalized through secondary thematic analysis of existing qualitative data from the Community Racial Equity and Training Interventions and Evaluation of Current and Future Healthcare Clinicians Study. Twenty-four perinatal providers (certified nurse-midwives [n = 7] and physicians [n = 17]) voluntarily participated in interviews. A comparative approach was used to determine how professional identity and model of care influence physicians' and certified nurse-midwives' perceptions of equity.
    Results: Thematic analysis produced 5 themes: racism as a comorbidity, health care systems' inability to address the needs of Black birthing people, health care systems prioritizing providers over patients are failed systems, patients are the experts in the optimal health care model, and benefits of interprofessional teams grounded in Reproductive Justice. Additionally, both physicians and midwives expressed a need for a new care model.
    Discussion: With these findings, our team proposes a modification of the midwifery model for application by all provider types that could radically shift the experience and outcomes of perinatal and reproductive health care and reduce mortality. Using a human rights approach to care, a Reproductive Justice-Public Health Critical Race praxis-informed midwifery model may be operationalized by all perinatal and reproductive health care providers. This novel model reflects an iterative process that may offer institutions and providers methods to build on past research supporting midwifery-centered care for improving outcomes for all patients by specifically focusing on improving care of Black birthing people. The implications of this work offer broad application in current clinical practice, quality improvement, research, technology, and patient resources.

    Abstract Methane generation in landfills can be estimated using mathematical models. One of the most widespread estimation models is that developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Despite its popularity, the simplicity that characterises this model markedly limits the possibility of representing operation alternatives, which can strongly impact surface emissions and hinder the introduction of local data that are sometimes available. In this study, the IPCC model was applied to a case study from which field data on gas emissions were available. To fit the model to the studied landfill conditions, a series of modifications were made, including changes in Degradable Organic Carbon (DOC) and methane generation rate constant (k) values, and degradation times for some waste fractions, and by considering leachate carbon and the inclusion of gas lateral migration phenomena or changes in the methane oxidation factor. The model's Final Version improved the fit of its Initial Version to the experimentally estimated values in the case study by more than 65%. Some modifications, such as considering the carbon dragged by leachate or the contour migration of gas, have a minor impact on the model's fit. However, changes in the degradation time of some fractions according to their particular pretreatment or the modification of parameter k in accordance with the moisture conditions in each landfill phase, strongly influence the model's results. This highlights the importance of particularising estimation models to achieve more accurate results, which allow better estimates of the efficiency of mitigation measures for landfill gas emissions in each facility.

    Abstract Background: Shigella specie is a globally important intestinal pathogen disseminated all over the world. In this study we analyzed the genome and the proteomic component of two Shigella flexneri 2a clinical isolates, collected from pediatric patients with gastroenteritis of the Northwest region of Argentina (NWA) in two periods of time, with four years of difference. Our goal was to determine putative changes at molecular levels occurred during these four years, that could explain the presence of this Shigella`s serovar as the prevalent pathogen in the population under study.
    Results: As previously reported, our findings support the idea of Shigella has a conserved "core" genome, since comparative studies of CI133 and CI172 genomes performed against 80 genomes obtained from the NCBI database, showed that there is a large number of genes shared among all of them. However, we observed that CI133 and CI172 harbors a small number of strain-specific genes, several of them present in mobile genetic elements, supporting the hypothesis that these isolates were established in the population by horizontal acquisition of genes. These differences were also observed at proteomic level, where it was possible to detect the presence of certain secreted proteins in a culture medium that simulates the host environment.
    Conclusion: Great similarities were observed between the CI133 and CI172 strains, confirming the high percentage of genes constituting the "core" genome of S. flexneri 2. However, numerous strain specific genes were also determined. The presence of the here identified molecular elements into other strain of our culture collation, is currently used to develop characteristic markers of local pathogens. In addition, the most outstanding result of this study was the first description of a S. flexneri 2 producing Colicin E, as one of the characteristics that allows S. flexneri 2 to persist in the microbial community. These findings could also contribute to clarify the mechanism and the evolution strategy used by this pathogen to specifically colonize, survive, and cause infection within the NWA population.

    Abstract The purpose of this article is to present some facts of interest for the quantification of gas emissions in active landfills obtained from a series of field campaigns in a case study landfill where spatial and temporal patterns of methane emissions were analyzed. Nine campaigns were carried out to measure diffuse surface methane emissions at an European municipal waste landfill in operation using the static flow chamber technique in different seasons over three years. Results obtained show a global annual diffuse flux of 733.26 t CH₄/year for the year 2020. Certain points on the surface, where concentrations reached values above 1000 ppm, were observed during the campaigns. These points, called “hotspots”, represented only 10% of all the points measured but accounted for 73% of the total diffuse methane emissions (506 t CH₄/year). Furthermore, localized emissions, such as those from landfill gas extraction wells, which were not connected to the general extraction network, were also analyzed. These localized emissions represent more than twice the total diffuse emissions measured on the surface (1500 t CH₄/year). These results highlight the importance of identifying high emission points to design effective mitigation measures. Moreover, the influence of certain meteorological conditions such as atmospheric pressure, temperature or rainfall was also studied. A new particular effect has been detected regarding precipitation, which favors or hinders methane emissions depending on the volume accumulated during the previous weeks. Pressure was found to be the factor that most affects methane emission variations in the case studied, presenting a clear inverse correlation with the field data that was collected. This suggests the need to consider the meteorological fluctuations over time to calculate the field emission estimates. Correcting the annual estimation in the case studied by considering the atmospheric pressure fluctuations over the year led to a 14% change in the estimate, obtaining a final result of 836.73 t CH₄/year for the total diffuse emissions.
