Redescription of Trypanosoma siniperca Chang 1964 from freshwater fish of China based on morphological and molecular data

During the parasite fauna investigation within 2005, the freshwater fish trypanosome Trypanosoma siniperca Chang 1964 was isolated from the blood of Mandarin carp (Siniperca chuatsi) from Niushan Lake, Hubei Province, central China. Blood trypomastigotes were observed only, and the density of infection was low. Light microscopy examinations of this material made it possible to study in detail the morphology of this parasite and redescribe it according to current standards. T. siniperca is characterized also on the molecular level using the sequences of SSU rRNA gene. Phylogenetic analyses based on these sequences allowed clearer phylogenetic relationships to be established with other fish trypanosomes sequenced to date.

Prise en charge des facteurs de risque des maladies cardiovasculaires: qu'est-ce qui a vraiment changé en 15 ans [Management of cardiovascular diseases in adults from 1999 to 2014: what has really changed?].

Every year, a considerable number of clinical guidelines for the management of cardiovascular risk factors are issued. It may give the idea that this area is constantly evolving with regular changes for ambulatory clinical practice, including family medicine. Sometimes important differences between the various recommendations are observed. This led us to wonder about the evolution of recommendations for the management of diabetes, dyslipidemia and high blood pressure over time. This article presents a historical review of US and European recommendations between 1999 and 2014 to highlight what has actually changed.

The effects of variation in snow properties on snow mass estimation using the Chang algorithm

Estimating snow mass at continental scales is difficult but important for understanding landatmosphere interactions, biogeochemical cycles and Northern latitudes’ hydrology. Remote sensing provides the only consistent global observations, but the uncertainty in measurements is poorly understood. Existing techniques for the remote sensing of snow mass are based on the Chang algorithm, which relates the absorption of Earth-emitted microwave radiation by a snow layer to the snow mass within the layer. The absorption also depends on other factors such as the snow grain size and density, which are assumed and fixed within the algorithm. We examine the assumptions, compare them to field measurements made at the NASA Cold Land Processes Experiment (CLPX) Colorado field site in 2002–3, and evaluate the consequences of deviation and variability for snow mass retrieval. The accuracy of the emission model used to devise the algorithm also has an impact on its accuracy, so we test this with the CLPX measurements of snow properties against SSM/I and AMSR-E satellite measurements.
