Cartas mensuales de temperatura superficial del mar frente a las costas de Ecuador, Perú y Chile durante el año 1969

Presenta datos de barcos mercantes y de la marina que operan frente a la costa peruana, así como de estaciones y plantas industriales distribuídas a lo largo del litortal, los cuales facilitan información sobre la temperatura superficial del mar y otras complementarias, con el fin de orientar a la actividad pesquera e industrias conexas para un aprovechamiento efectivo de los recursos, haciendo prediucciones a corto y largo plazo sobre las condiciones del mar.

Dilated Cardiomyopathy. New Therapeutic Approach

Inflammatory reaction has been associated with dilated cardiomyopathy. In this context, cardiac autoantibodies and inflammatory cell infiltration have been studied during the last two decades towards the understanding of their origin and the underlying pathogenic mechanisms. Recent research has increasingly focused on the development of an etiological therapeutic approach. Immunoadsorption has shown to improve clinical, echocardiographic, haemodynamic and laboratory parameters in patients with inflammatory dilated cardiomyopathy. In this article we review recent literature concerning this subject, including classification, pathophysiological mechanisms and therapy.

Morte Fetal Tardia - O Que Podemos Aprender?

Resumo: Realizou-se um estudo retrospectivo, comparativo sobre gestações com idade gestacional (IG) igual ou superior a 28 semanas, cujo parto resultou no nascimento de nado morto (n= 111) ou de nado-vivo (n= 16863), entre 2000 a 2004, na Maternidade Dr. Alfredo da Costa. Resultados: Não houve diferenças estatisticamente significativas na comparação da idade materna (28,9 vs 29,3; p= 0,3) e etnia. O grupo de mulheres com idade> 35 anos foi inferior no grupo da mortalidade fetal (18% vs. 26%, p= NS). A grande multiparidade associou-se significativamente com morte fetal tardia (3,6 vs. 0,7; p<0,005). A análise dos factores etiológicos mostrou que na maioria destas situações se identificam causas placentares, maternas ou funiculares. A morte fetal inexplicada representa 36% dos casos. Conclusões: O estudo da fetomortalidade é importante no esclarecimento dos pais e permite identificar etiologias passíveis de prevenção. A morte fetal inexplicada constitui ainda uma parcela significativa na mortalidade perinatal. A Fetopatologia e o estudo anatomo-patológico da placenta constituem instrumentos fundamentais para a sua compreensão.

Two Novel CMY-2-Type β-Lactamases Encountered in Clinical Escherichia Coli Isolates

BACKGROUND: Chromosomally encoded AmpC β-lactamases may be acquired by transmissible plasmids which consequently can disseminate into bacteria lacking or poorly expressing a chromosomal bla AmpC gene. Nowadays, these plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamases are found in different bacterial species, namely Enterobacteriaceae, which typically do not express these types of β-lactamase such as Klebsiella spp. or Escherichia coli. This study was performed to characterize two E. coli isolates collected in two different Portuguese hospitals, both carrying a novel CMY-2-type β-lactamase-encoding gene. FINDINGS: Both isolates, INSRA1169 and INSRA3413, and their respective transformants, were non-susceptible to amoxicillin, amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid, cephalothin, cefoxitin, ceftazidime and cefotaxime, but susceptible to cefepime and imipenem, and presented evidence of synergy between cloxacilin and cefoxitin and/or ceftazidime. The genetic characterization of both isolates revealed the presence of bla CMY-46 and bla CMY-50 genes, respectively, and the following three resistance-encoding regions: a Citrobacter freundii chromosome-type structure encompassing a blc-sugE-bla CMY-2-type -ampR platform; a sul1-type class 1 integron with two antibiotic resistance gene cassettes (dfrA1 and aadA1); and a truncated mercury resistance operon. CONCLUSIONS: This study describes two new bla CMY-2-type genes in E. coli isolates, located within a C. freundii-derived fragment, which may suggest their mobilization through mobile genetic elements. The presence of the three different resistance regions in these isolates, with diverse genetic determinants of resistance and mobile elements, may further contribute to the emergence and spread of these genes, both at a chromosomal or/and plasmid level.

Recommendations for Vaccination in Adult Patients with Systemic Inflammatory Rheumatic Diseases from the Portuguese Society of Rheumatology

Serious infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in systemic inflammatory rheumatic disease (SIRD) patients. Although vaccination may prevent numerous infections, vaccination uptake rates are low in this group of patients. OBJECTIVES: To develop evidence-based recommendations for vaccination in SIRD patients. METHODS: We searched MEDLINE (until 31 October 2014) and EMBASE (until 14 December 2014) databases, as well as the ACR and EULAR congress abstracts (2011-2014). Patients with any systemic inflammatory rheumatic disease were included and all vaccines were considered. Any safety and efficacy outcomes were admitted. Search results were submitted to title and abstract selection, followed by detailed review of suitable studies. Data were subsequently pooled according to the type of vaccine and the SIRD considered. Results were presented and discussed by a multidisciplinary panel and systematic literature review (SLR)-derived recommendations were voted according to the Delphi method. The level of agreement among rheumatologists was assessed using an online survey. RESULTS: Eight general and seven vaccine-specific recommendations were formulated. Briefly, immunization status should routinely be assessed in all SIRD patients. The National Vaccination Program should be followed and some additional vaccines are recommended. To maximize the efficacy of vaccination, vaccines should preferably be administered 4 weeks before starting immunosuppression or, if possible when disease activity is controlled. Non-live vaccines are safe in SIRD, including immunosuppressed patients. The safety of live attenuated vaccines in immunosuppressed patients deserves further ascertainment, but might be considered in particular situations. DISCUSSION: The present recommendations combine scientific evidence with the multidisciplinary expertise of our taskforce panel and attained desirable agreement among Portuguese rheumatologists. Vaccination recommendations need to be updated on a regular basis, as more scientific data regarding vaccination efficacy and safety, emergent infectious threats, new vaccines as well as new immunomodulatory therapies become available.
