    Abstract Zieve's syndrome is an underdiagnosed condition characterized by the triad of jaundice, hemolytic anemia, and hyperlipidemia in the setting of chronic alcohol use. It may be accompanied by acute alcoholic hepatitis. The distinction between the coexistence of acute alcoholic hepatitis with Zieve's syndrome and Zieve's syndrome in isolation is crucial, given the different treatments and prognoses in these situations. A 35-year-old woman presented with complaints of abdominal discomfort, nausea, and vomiting in the previous week. She was a heavy drinker with resultant cirrhosis, splenomegaly, and esophageal varices. An ancillary test showed hemolytic anemia, moderately elevated transaminases, hyperbilirubinemia, and coagulopathy. A negative direct Coombs test established the anemia as non-immune, supporting the diagnosis of Zieve's syndrome despite the absence of hyperlipidemia. Maddrey's discriminant function score was 92 points, so she was treated with supportive measures, as well as corticosteroids in the setting of acute alcoholic hepatitis. The patient showed a favorable clinical and analytical evolution and was discharged home one month following admission with her hemoglobin levels stabilized. Previous literature focused on the distinction between Zieve's syndrome and acute alcoholic hepatitis but they may coexist.

    Abstract Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used and their gastric, cardiovascular, and renal adverse effects have been well documented. Although rare, NSAID-induced acute eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP) may occur. We report a case of AEP related to naproxen and celecoxib. The patient presented with dry cough and breathlessness two weeks after she started taking these drugs. The chest radiograph displayed bilateral opacities and she had peripheral eosinophilia. Bronchoalveolar lavage was performed at a time when blood eosinophilia was already decreasing and cell analysis revealed 63700 cells/mL with 9% eosinophil. After ruling out other possible etiologies, drug-induced AEP was diagnosed. The patient improved after drug discontinuation. When it comes to drug-induced AEP identifying a causative agent is essential as cessation of the drug is the mainstay of the treatment.

    Abstract Tree seedlings from populations native to drier regions are often assumed to be more drought tolerant than those from wetter provenances. However, intraspecific variation in drought tolerance has not been well-characterized despite being critical for developing climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies, and for predicting the effects of drought on forests. We used a large-scale common garden drought-to-death experiment to assess range-wide variation in drought tolerance, measured by decline of photosynthetic efficiency, growth, and plastic responses to extreme summer drought in seedlings of 73 natural populations of the two main varieties of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii and var. glauca). Local adaptation to drought was weak in var. glauca and nearly absent in menziesii. Var. glauca showed higher tolerance to drought but slower growth than var. menziesii. Clinal variation in drought tolerance and growth species-wide was mainly associated with temperature rather than precipitation. A higher degree of plasticity for growth was observed in var. menziesii in response to extreme drought. Genetic variation for drought tolerance in seedlings within varieties is maintained primarily within populations. Selective breeding within populations may facilitate adaptation to drought more than assisted gene flow.

    Abstract Understanding charge transfer processes is essential to estimate the performance of organic photovoltaic technologies. Although experimental production is on the rise, predictability strongly relies on theoretical modeling, which is limited to the size of semiconductors. As a computationally favorable approach, we benchmarked the long-range corrected (LC) time-dependent (TD) formulation of the semi-empirical density functional-based tight-binding method (DFTB) for three polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and studied the DTP-IC-4Ph molecule, a PAH-based non-fullerene electron acceptor (NFA) with an A-D-A backbone structure. After a thorough investigation into the long-range parameter (

  8. Article ; Online: Synchronous Epidermodysplasia Verruciformis and Intraepithelial Lesion of the Vulva Is Caused by Coinfection With Alpha-Human Papillomavirus and Beta-Human Papillomavirus Genotypes and Facilitated by Mutations in Cell-Mediated Immunity Genes.

    Abstract Context.—: There have been exceedingly few reports of epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) or EV-like lesions in the vulva. We describe the first observation of vulvar lesions displaying synchronous EV-like histology and conventional high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), a finding hitherto unreported in medical literature.
    Objectives.—: To describe this novel vulvar lesion with hybrid features of HSIL and EV, attempt to confirm the hypothesis of coinfection with α and β human papillomavirus (α-HPV and β-HPV) genotypes, and describe relevant underlying genetic mutations.
    Design.—: Cases were retrospectively selected from our institutional archive. Detailed review of clinical information, histologic examination, and whole genome sequencing (WGS) were performed.
    Results.—: Five samples from 4 different patients were included. Three of 4 patients had a history of either iatrogenic immune suppression or prior immune deficiency, and all 3 featured classic HSIL and EV changes within the same lesion. One patient had no history of immune disorders, presented with EV-like changes and multinucleated atypia of the vulva, and was the sole patient without conventional HSIL. By WGS, several uniquely mappable reads pointed toward infection with multiple HPV genotypes, including both α-HPVs and β-HPVs. Mutations in genes implicated in cell-mediated immunity, such as DOCK8, CARMIL2, MST1, and others, were also found.
    Conclusions.—: We provide the first description of vulvar lesions harboring simultaneous HSIL and EV features in the English-language literature, a phenomenon explained by coinfection with α-HPV and β-HPV genotypes. The finding of EV-like changes in a vulvar specimen should prompt assessment of the patient's immune status.

    Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects the hippocampus. Since hippocampal studies have highlighted a differential subregional regulation along its longitudinal axis, a more detailed analysis addressing subregional changes along the longitudinal hippocampal axis has the potential to provide new relevant biomarkers. This study included structural brain MRI data of 583 participants from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI). Cognitively normal (CN) subjects, mild cognitively impaired (MCI) subjects and AD patients were conveniently selected considering the age and sex match between clinical groups. Structural MRI acquisitions were pre-processed and analysed with a new longitudinal axis segmentation method, dividing the hippocampus in three subdivisions (anterior, intermediate, and posterior). When normalizing the volume of hippocampal sub-divisions to total hippocampus, the posterior hippocampus negatively correlates with age only in CN subjects (r = -.31). The longitudinal ratio of hippocampal atrophy (anterior sub-division divided by the posterior one) shows a significant increase with age only in CN (r = .25). Overall, in AD, the posterior hippocampus is predominantly atrophied early on. Consequently, the anterior/posterior hippocampal ratio is an AD differentiating metric at early disease stages with potential for diagnostic and prognostic applications.

    Abstract Se historicamente a educação escolar no Brasil foi marcada por um profundo corte elitista, o processo de democratização do ensino apresentou incontestáveis avanços desde a Constituição de 1988. A caminhada pela universalização, no entanto, não se deu à margem de suas heranças históricas, bem como novas fronteiras surgiram para o desafio da educação emancipatória.Esta obra reúne 17 ensaios que debatem os dilemas existentes no cotidiano da sala de aula. Divididos em três partes - Educação, culturas realidade social, Políticas educacionais e A escola -, os textos coligidos abordam temas variados relacionados à prática escolar, como cidadania, políticas afirmativas e gestão administrativa, e compõem um cenário contemporâneo dos principais desafios colocados para a educação de nosso tempo
