    Abstract The physiological and agronomic responses of two irrigation systems were compared in ‘Fino 49′ lemon trees (Citrus limon [L.] Burm. fil.). The irrigation systems consisted of different designs of the irrigation installation (same amount of water and irrigation frequency): a conventional design (2L, two drip lines with six drippers per tree), and a design with a larger wetted surface (3L, implementing the conventional design with a third drip line with nine drippers per tree). Results indicated that the 3L design promoted a better distribution of water and fertilisers in the soil profile, improving some gas-exchange parameters in periods of low evaporative demand or after rain. The agronomic response showed two main effects on fruit quality: (1) the total numer of fruits affected by endoxerosis was reduced, and (2) the first harvest (the earliest fruits harvested) moved forward in time. From an economic point of view, economic water productivity was increased, mainly due to an increment in the proportion of first-harvested lemon, but also due to the decrease in lemon produced for the industry (affected by endoxerosis). The 3L irrigation system could be an interesting alternative to favour fruit precocity, improving the use of the available water resources for early lemon tree growers.

    Abstract Objectives: Kidney transplant is the optimal treatment for end-stage renal disease; however, due to the imbalance between demand and supply, several strategies have been implemented to increase the donor pool. To increase the number of donors, expanded criteria donors after circulatory death have been explored as an acceptable graft source. In this study, we compared graft survival, estimated glomerular filtration rate at 3 and 5 years, and the incidence of delayed graft function between standard and expanded criteria donors after brain death and between standard and expanded criteria donors after circulatory death.
    Materials and methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2019, at Reina Sofia University Hospital. Variables related to the donor, recipient, and transplant procedure were analyzed, and univariate and multivariate logistic and Cox regression analyses were performed.
    Results: Our study included 308 deceased donor kidneys. The kidneys from standard criteria brain dead donors had higher estimated glomerular filtration rate than the other groups (P < .03).However, no significant differences in estimated glomerular filtration rate were observed among the suboptimal groups (expanded criteria and standard criteria donors after brain death and expanded criteria donors after circulatory death). The incidence of delayed graft function was significantly higher in expanded criteria donors after circulatory death than in the other groups (odds ratio = 6.9; 95% CI, 2.22-21.71; P < .001). Nevertheless, we found no significant differences in death-censored graft loss among the groups.
    Conclusions: Kidney transplants from expanded criteria donors and donors after cardiac death are comparable, even when both criteria are combined. The use of expanded criteria donor kidneys after cardiac death is therefore a suitable approach to expand the donor pool, despite the higher risk of delayed graft function, as there were no significant differences in death-censored graft loss.

    Abstract Background-aim: High vitamin B12 concentrations are considered a common finding in clinical practice. Thanks to immunoassay accessibility, vitamin B12 has become a usual test in routine health checkups. However, these analytical methods usually present antibody-mediated interferences. Our aim was to propose an algorithm for the screening of antibody-mediated analytical interferences on vitamin B12 immunoassays on the Alinity platform.
    Methods: Observational, prospective, case-control study was performed during 12 months. Individuals with persistently elevated cobalamin concentrations [>554 pmol/L] were considered as cases in the absence of supplementation or other justifying cause. Individuals under treatment with vitamin B12, or in the context of alcoholism were included as controls. A thorough interference study by macromolecules in immunoassays was performed in serum samples: PEG precipitation, rheumatoid factor, heterophile antibodies and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Albumin, total B12, IgG and IgM were measured in every GPC collected fraction and chromatograms were drafted.
    Results: Up to 45% of cases presented interference by B12-immunocomplexes and the precipitation for all of them was >50%. The individual with the lowest interfered vitamin B12 result was 661 pmol/L.
    Conclusion: The presence of antibody-mediated interferences, mainly B12-immunocomplexes, is a relatively common phenomenon. A simple algorithm for the screening of interferences is useful and reliable in ruling out healthy individuals and highly cost-effective.

    Abstract Proteolysis of protein hormones is primarily acknowledged in the context of breakdown and metabolic clearance by hepatorenal elimination. However, less explored is the specific proteolytic processing of large protein hormones, for which canonical signaling pathways were already established [e.g., prolactin (PRL)], to generate unique messengers that impact cellular functions via pathways unrelated to the receptors of their precursor molecules. Yet, the proteolysis of PRL to generate new messengers evolved under positive selection, and cleaved protein hormones regulate essential functions to maintain homeostasis at the organismal, tissue, or organ levels. The cleavage sites at which proteolysis occurs and the proteases with their determinants define a hormone-metabolism junction at which specific proteolytic cleavage, pathological alteration, and hepatorenal elimination occur.
