    Abstract: Mature B-cell lymphomas, (B- or T-cell) lymphoblastic lymphomas (LBL), and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) correspond to about 90% of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cases occurring in children and adolescents. The remaining 10% encompass a complex ... ...

    Abstract Mature B-cell lymphomas, (B- or T-cell) lymphoblastic lymphomas (LBL), and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) correspond to about 90% of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cases occurring in children and adolescents. The remaining 10% encompass a complex group of entities characterized by low/very low incidences, paucity of knowledge in terms of underlying biology in comparison to their adult counterparts, and consequent lack of standardization of care, information on clinical therapeutic efficacy and long-term survival. At the Seventh International Symposium on Childhood, Adolescent and Young Adult NHL, organized on October 20-23, 2022, in New York City, New York, US, we had the opportunity to discuss clinical, pathogenetic, diagnostic, and treatment aspects of certain subtypes of rare B- or T-cell NHL and they will be the topic of this review.

    Abstract The impact of nonbiological factors (NBF) on survival was investigated in a large cohort of adolescents and young adults (AYA) with lymphoma in the United States (US). We found that uninsured and Medicaid AYA beneficiaries with classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) are at significantly increased risk of death when compared with their insured counterpart even after adjustment for other factors affecting survival. Increased risk of death was also noted for Non-Hispanic Black (NHB) patients with cHL and NHL when compared to Non-Hispanic White (NHW) patients, however, only Hispanic patients with NHL were found to have a significantly increased mortality risk while those with cHL were not. NHL AYA patients residing in lower-income counties are at increased risk of death. The strong association of NBF with survival indicates opportunities to improve the survival of AYA lymphoma patients by improving access/quality of care in the US.

    Abstract Bryozoans are commonly associated with various artificial structures in marine environments and have been responsible for several bioinvasion events worldwide. Understanding the interactions between bryozoans and artificial structures is therefore essential to prevent the establishment and spread of potential bioinvaders. This study investigated bryozoan recruitment on four different substrates (PET, nautical ropes, metal, and PVC) placed in three orientations (vertical, horizontal facing down and facing up) in an area of the Western Atlantic. In total, 15 species of bryozoans were found. The results revealed significant variations in assemblages' richness, with bryozoans showing a preference for settling on PVC (14 species found) and on the underside of horizontal substrates (15 species found), resulting in the higher representativity observed in this study. Cryptogenic (nine species) and exotic (five species) bryozoans dominated the assemblages in all treatments, indicating that the type of substrate (especially artificial) and its orientation can favor the settlement of bryozoans, particularly non-native species. Therefore, the availability of multiple types of artificial substrates in marine environments should be treated as a cause for concern.

    Abstract Artificial habitats, such as harbours and marinas, are entry doors for the introduction and dispersal of species. Surveys on fouling community in these habitats help to understand preventing environmental impacts and management of invasive species. Thus, a survey on fouling bryozoan fauna was carried out along 17 artificial habitats (eight harbours and nine marinas) from three coastal stretches in Southwestern Atlantic. A total of 55 species were identified, including 13 non-native, 33 cryptogenic and nine native taxa. Only five bryozoan species were found in more than 75% of sampled sites. Our analysis revealed that bryozoan fouling communities in artificial habitats do not vary significantly between commercial and recreational localities. However, we also found that faunal assemblages varied significantly along Brazilian coastal stretches that are distinguished by environmental conditions, such as salinity and temperature.

    Abstract Paediatric non-Hodgkin lymphomas (pNHL) are a diverse group of malignancies characterised by nodal and/or extranodal involvement. Less common pNHL forms include those derived from mature T- and natural killer (NK) cells. Much of our current understanding of paediatric mature (non-anaplastic) T/NK-cell lymphomas with respect to pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment is extrapolated from adult literature. At the Sixth International Symposium on Childhood, Adolescent and Young Adult Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, convened September 26-29, 2018 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, some important aspects on diagnosis and outcomes of mature (non-anaplastic) T/NK-cell lymphoma in children and adolescents were discussed and will be reviewed in here.

    Abstract Spent coffee grounds (SCGs) are a promising substrate that can be valorized by biotechnological processes, such as for short-chain organic acid (SCOA) production, but their complex structure implies the application of a pretreatment step to increase their biodegradability. Physicochemical pretreatments are widely studied but have multiple drawbacks. An alternative is the application of biological pretreatments that include using fungi

    Abstract Background: Undiagnosed cases of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection result in significant morbidity and mortality, further transmission, and increased public health costs. Testing in emergency departments (EDs) is an opportunity to expand HCV screening. The goal of this project was to increase the proportion of eligible patients screened for HCV in urban areas.
    Methods: An opportunistic automated HCV screening program was implemented in the EDs of 4 public hospitals in Spain and Portugal at different periods between 2018 and 2023. HCV prevalence was prospectively evaluated, and single-step or reflex testing was used for confirmation in the same sample.
    Results: More than 90% of the population eligible for testing were screened in the participating centers. We found HCV antibody seroprevalence rates ranging from 0.6 to 3.9%, with between 19 and 53% of viremic individuals.
    Conclusions: Opportunistic HCV screening in EDs is feasible, does not disrupt ED activities, is highly effective in increasing diagnosis, and contributes to WHO's HCV elimination goals.
