    Abstract: ... in JAK2V617F hematopoietic cells into a single irradiated leg, we show development of polycythemia vera (PV ...

    Abstract Current murine models of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) cannot examine how MPNs progress from a single bone marrow source to the entire hematopoietic system. Thus, using transplantation of knock-in JAK2V617F hematopoietic cells into a single irradiated leg, we show development of polycythemia vera (PV) from a single anatomic site in immunocompetent mice. Barcode experiments reveal that grafted JAK2V617F stem/progenitor cells migrate from the irradiated leg to nonirradiated organs such as the contralateral leg and spleen, which is strictly required for development of PV. Mutant cells colonizing the nonirradiated leg efficiently induce PV in nonconditioned recipient mice and contain JAK2V617F hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells that express high levels of carbonic anhydrase 1 (CA1), a peculiar feature also found in CD34+ cells from patients with PV. Finally, genetic and pharmacologic inhibition of CA1 efficiently suppresses PV development and progression in mice and decreases PV patients' erythroid progenitors, strengthening CA1 as a potent therapeutic target for PV.
    Significance: Follow-up of hematopoietic malignancies from their initiating anatomic site is crucial for understanding their development and discovering new therapeutic avenues. We developed such an approach, used it to characterize PV progression, and identified CA1 as a promising therapeutic target of PV. This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 265.

    Abstract Conduziu-se este este trabalho, com o objetivo de estudar a viabilidade econômica da babosa e verificar se o cultivo desta planta é ou não, uma alternativa economicamente viável ao produtor rural. Os dados relativos ao custo de produção, utilizados neste trabalho, foram obtidos junto às áreas de produção e instalações industriais da NATURAMA - Indústria e Comércio de Produtos Agropecuários Ltda, estabelecida no município de Paulo Lopes, SC. Na determinação do custo de produção de um hectare de babosa, em cultivo orgânico, foram consideradas todas as etapas, desde a obtenção das mudas até a conclusão do processamento, quando o produto final encontra-se apto ao consumo, e neste caso, é uma bebida em forma de suco. O processamento dos dados foi realizado utilizando uma planilha eletrônica desenvolvida especificamente para esse fim, a qual estimou os custos utilizando as metodologias do custo total (custos fixos e variáveis) e do custo operacional total (custo operacional efetivo e depreciações). Pela análise da rentabilidade, conclui-se que a atividade é economicamente viável. The aim of this work is to study the economic viability of Aloe vera L. and verify if the culture of this plant is or not an alternative economically viable for the farmer. The data of production cost used in this work were gotten in the areas of production and industrial installations of NATURAMA- Industry and Trade of Farming Products LTDA, settled in Paulo Lopes, SC. In the determination of the production cost of one Aloe vera L hectare, all the phases were taken into consideration, from the getting of molts up to the conclusion of the processing, when the final product is ready to the consumption, and in this case, it's a beverage in a way of juice. The processing data was made by using an electronic spread sheet developed specifically for this reason, which estimated the costs using the methodologies of the total cost (steady and variable costs) and of the total operational cost (effective operational cost and depreciations).

    Abstract Endocarditis is an inflammation of the endocardium and is characterized by the presence of vegetation, which may occur in the context of infectious or non-infectious diseases. Despite the higher rate of infective endocarditis diagnosis, it may also surge in other non-infectious conditions such as cancer or chronic inflammatory syndromes. Cancer defines a hypercoagulable state, and cancer-associated thrombophilia can have a diverse clinical presentation, most commonly venous thromboembolism and rarely non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE). The diagnosis of NBTE is difficult and requires a high level of suspicion. The treatment relies on anticoagulant therapy, control of underlying disease, and valve replacement when applied. Independently of the etiology, without treatment, endocarditis may lead to valve dysfunction and to the worst prognosis. In this paper, we describe a case of a patient with persistent fever and NBTE of the tricuspid valve, disclosing a rare presentation of gastric cancer.

    Abstract Background: Hypoglycemia is uncommon in people who are not being treated for diabetes mellitus and, when present, the differential diagnosis is broad. Artifactual hypoglycemia describes discrepancy between low capillary and normal plasma glucose levels regardless of symptoms and should be considered in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon.
    Case presentation: A 46-year-old female patient with a history of a sleeve gastrectomy started complaining about episodes of lipothymias preceded by sweating, nausea, and dizziness. During one of these episodes, a capillary blood glucose was obtained with a value of 24 mg/dl. She had multiple emergency admissions with low-capillary glycemia. An exhaustive investigation for possible causes of hypoglycemia was made for 18 months. The 72h fasting test was negative for hypoglycemia. A Raynaud's phenomenon was identified during one appointment.
    Conclusion: Artifactual hypoglycemia has been described in various conditions including Raynaud's phenomenon, peripheral arterial disease, Eisenmenger syndrome, acrocyanosis, or hypothermia. With this case report, we want to reinforce the importance of being aware of this diagnosis to prevent anxiety, unnecessary treatment, and diagnostic tests.

    Abstract Introduction: Coronavirus has an impact on both the physical and mental health of individuals. The literature regarding the patient's health status post-SARS-CoV-2 is still scarce with limited data on the prevalence of residual symptoms and quality of life (QoL) after the infection. The aim of this study was to understand the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on patient QoL, and remaining symptoms.
    Material and methods: Single center cross-sectional study of patients who had been admitted to our COVID-19 ward between March 2020 and March 2021. By applying a QoL questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) we assessed the overall sample, at three time points and in different groups of patients: those admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and the elderly.
    Results: A total of 125 participants were included in our study. Most patients who were admitted had a severe course of disease (51%), with 22% of admissions to the ICU, with 8% requiring prone ventilation, 10% experiencing thrombotic complications and 18% of nosocomial infections throughout the admission. As for persistent symptoms related with COVID-19 fog, the most frequent were fatigue (57%), memory loss (52%) and insomnia (50%). Regarding QoL, the average decrease was 0.08 ± 0.2 in the index and 8.7 ± 19 in the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The QoL index decrease correlated with age, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma and heart failure, and all persistent symptoms, significantly. QoL VAS correlated significantly with fatigue, mood changes, difficulty concentrating and memory loss. The decrease in QoL and the persistent symptoms remained overall stable over the three time points. The ICU group showed no statistically significant difference in QoL, but the most frequently persistent symptoms were mood changes and attention disturbances. However, the elderly experienced a worsening in QoL expressed by index (0.69 ± 0.3 vs 0.8 ± 0.2, p-value = 0.01).
    Conclusion: A decrease in QoL was observed following SARS-CoV-2 infection, correlating with both chronic conditions and persistent symptoms. The lack of difference through time points of both QoL and persistent symptoms suggests a long-standing effect.

    Abstract Introduction: Intra-abdominal fat is a metabolically active tissue that can undergo necrosis due to torsion, infarction, or trauma. Despite being asymptomatic in most cases, fat necrosis or steatonecrosis can cause abdominal pain.
    Presentation: This article describes the case of a male patient admitted to the emergency department with diffuse abdominal pain for the past month. The patient had a past medical history of antiphospholipid syndrome with multiple venous thromboembolic events and one episode of lower limb vasculitis, currently under anticoagulation treatment. Imaging studies with computed tomography and magnetic resonance revealed a mesenteric mass-like lesion adjacent to the ileal bowel loops. The patient underwent surgical resection, and the microscopic analysis revealed extensive organizing fat necrosis with reactive panniculitis and hemorrhage.
    Discussion and conclusion: This article describes a rare case of a mesenteric mass-like encapsulated fat necrosis in a patient with antiphospholipid syndrome, with very atypical location and imaging features.
