Respiratory support in patients with severe COVID-19 in the International Severe Acute Respiratory and Emerging Infection (ISARIC) COVID-19 study: a …
2022
Invasive mechanical ventilation; COVID-19; Critical care Ventilación mecánica invasiva; COVID-19; Cuidado crítico Ventilació mecànica invasiva; COVID-19; Atenció crítica Background Up to 30% of hospitalised patients with COVID-19 require advanced respiratory support, including high-flow nasal cannulas (HFNC), non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV), or invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics, outcomes and risk factors for failing non-invasive respiratory support in patients treated with severe COVID-19 during the first two years of the pandemic in high-income countries (HICs) and low middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods This is a multin…
Proximate Composition and Nutritional Value of Three Macroalgae: Ascophyllum nodosum, Fucus vesiculosus and Bifurcaria bifurcata
2017
Proximate composition (moisture, protein, lipid and ash content) and nutritional value (fatty acid, amino acid and mineral profile) of three macroalgae (Ascophyllum nodosum, Fucus vesiculosus and Bifurcaria bifurcate) were studied. Chemical composition was significantly (p < 0.001) different among the three seaweeds. In this regard, the B. bifurcata presented the highest fat content (6.54% of dry matter); whereas, F. vesiculosus showed the highest protein level (12.99% dry matter). Regarding fatty acid content, the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were the most abundant followed by saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs). On the other hand, the three seawe…
Two cases of monomicrobial intraabdominal abscesses due to KPC - 3 Klebsiella pneumoniaeST258 clone
2011
Abstract Background Knowledge of the etiology of pyogenic liver and pancreatic abscesses is an important factor in determining the success of combined surgical and antibiotic treatment. Literature shows geographical variations in the prevalence and distribution of causative organisms, and the spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing bacteria is an emerging cause of abdominal infections. Case presentation We herein describe two cases of intra-abdominal abscesses due to monomicrobial infection by Klebsiella pneumoniae Sequence Type 258 producing K. pneumoniae carbapenemase 3 (KPC-Kp). In case 1, a 50-year-old HIV-negative Italian woman with chronic pancreatitis showed infection…
Polyoxypregnanes as safe, potent, and specific ABCB1-inhibitory pro-drugs to overcome multidrug resistance in cancer chemotherapy in vitro and in vivo
2021
Multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) is significantly hindering effective cancer chemotherapy. However, currently, no ABCB1-inhibitory drugs have been approved to treat MDR cancer clinically, mainly due to the inhibitor specificity, toxicity, and drug interactions. Here, we reported that three polyoxypregnanes (POPs) as the most abundant constituents of Marsdenia tenacissima (M. tenacissima) were novel ABCB1-modulatory pro-drugs, which underwent intestinal microbiota-mediated biotransformation in vivo to generate active metabolites. The metabolites at non-toxic concentrations restored chemosensitivity in ABCB1-overexpressing cancer cells v…

Monoterpenes such as geraniol, linalool, and -terpineol present in grapes determine the varietal flavor properties of young quality wines made from Muscat varieties (for reviews, see references 19 and 21). Geraniol and linalool are considered to be the most important of the monoterpene alcohols, as they are present in greater concentrations and have lower flavor thresholds than other major wine monoterpenes. In particular, linalool is thought to be responsible for the grapelike aroma of wines produced from the Muscat variety. A large proportion of

Atkvēlināšanas ietekme uz struktūru ar ātrajiem 36S joniem apstarotos LiF monokristālos.

Atkvēlināšanas ietekme uz struktūru ar ātrajiem 36S joniem apstarotos LiF monokristālos. Sušinska J., darba vadītāja M.Sc. Phys. Bikše L., Bakalaura darbs, 39 lappuses, 24 attēli, 4 tabulas, 1 pielikums, 31 literatūras avoti. Latviešu valodā. Pētījuma ietvaros tika novērtēta ar 410 MeV 36S joniem apstarotā litija fluorīda struktūra un morfoloģija pirms un pēc atkvēlināšanas ar atomspēka, optisko un skenējošo elektronu mikroskopu. Tika novērtētas masas izmaiņas karsēšanas ietekmē ar termogravimetrijas metodi, un ar optiskās absorbcijas spektroskopiju novērtēta temperatūras ietekme uz defektiem - krāsu centriem un koloīdiem. Apstarotajā un neapstarotajā zonā tika novēroti neidentificēti defek…
Monolītiska silīcija dioksīda iegūšana ar sola-gela metodi
2021
Darbā pilnveidota SiO2 sola-gela sintēzes metode ar mērķi iegūt monolītiskus, optiski caurspīdīgus, nesaplaisājušus paraugus. SiO2 paraugu konsolidācijas process pētīts, tos pakāpeniski izkarsējot gaisā, skābeklī vai ūdeņradī. SiO2 paraugu īpašību pētījumos izmantotas struktūranalīzes, termogravimetrijas, optiskās spektroskopijas un elektronu mikroskopijas metodes. Darbā iegūts stiklveida monolītisks SiO2, pie termiskās apstrādes temperatūrām 600 °C un augstākām. Sintezētajos paraugos novērota palielināta 3-locekļu SiO2 saišu gredzenu koncentrācija, kā arī brīvās un ar ūdeņraža saiti saistītās silanolgrupas (Si-O-H). Silanolgrupu koncentrāciju iespējams samazināt, karsējot paraugu 1000 °C –…

Nitensidine A, a guanidine alkaloid from Pterogyne nitens, is a novel substrate for human ABC transporter ABCB1.
2014
The Pterogyne nitens (Fabaceae) tree, native to South America, has been found to produce guanidine alkaloids as well as bioactive flavonols such as kaempferol, quercetin, and rutin. In the present study, we examined the possibility of interaction between human ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCB1 and four guanidine alkaloids isolated from P. nitens (i.e., galegine, nitensidine A, pterogynidine, and pterogynine) using human T cell lymphoblast-like leukemia cell line CCRF-CEM and its multi-drug resistant (MDR) counterpart CEM/ADR5000. In XTT assays, CEM/ADR5000 cells were resistant to the four guanidine alkaloids compared to CCRF-CEM cells, although the four guanidine alkaloids exhibi…
