Trypanosoma evansi infection in mainland Spain.
2009
An outbreak of Trypanosoma evansi infection that occurred in mainland Spain is described. The outbreak occurred on an equine and camel farm to which dromedary camels from an infected area of the Canary Islands had recently been introduced. One of these camels developed clinical signs and T. evansi was discovered in a blood smear examination. The herd was evaluated in order to determine the extent of the disease. The results showed that 76% of the camels, 35% of the donkeys and 2% of the horses were affected. The animals were isolated and treated using Cymelarsan((R)) (0.5mg/kg). After treatment, three blood analysis using parasitological methods revealed negative results. This is the first …
EP912 Characterization of the tumour microenvironment in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC): prognostic value of the lymphocytic infiltration p…
2019
Introduction/Background Lymphocytic infiltration areas (immunoreactive), frequently found in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), are associated with a better prognosis and increased survival. The cross-talk between tumour cells and lymphocytes conditions the capacity of the immune system (IS) to cope with the tumour in the so-called immune-checkpoints. Therefore, assessing IS-related genes and infiltration patters might provide valuable prognostic biomarkers. Methodology This retrospective study includes 57 samples from patients with HGSOC who underwent cytoreductive surgery at Hospital General (Valencia). Clinical variables, the features of the lymphocytic infiltration (pattern, loca…
