- Abstract
Magnetic materials exhibiting topological Dirac fermions are attracting significant attention for their promising technological potential in spintronics. In these systems, the combined effect of the spin–orbit coupling and magnetic order enables the realization of novel topological phases with exotic transport properties, including the anomalous Hall effect and magneto-chiral phenomena. Herein, we report experimental signature of topological Dirac antiferromagnetism in TaCoTe2via angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and first-principles density functional theory calculations. In particular, we find the existence of spin–orbit coupling-induced gaps at the Fermi level, consistent with the manifestation of a large intrinsic nonlinear Hall conductivity. Remarkably, we find that the latter is extremely sensitive to the orientation of the Néel vector, suggesting TaCoTe2as a suitable candidate for the realization of non-volatile spintronic devices with an unprecedented level of intrinsic tunability.

- Abstract
In this paper we report the trauma suffered by a green turtle (Chelonia mydas), caused by a collision with a motorboat, and describe the case anteand post-mortem. An adult female green turtle was rescued alive on December 2, 2016 at Ponta Negra beach, municipality of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The rescued animal was sent to the Marine Fauna Rehabilitation Center (PCCB-UERN), municipality of Areia Branca (RN), in Brazil. Physical examination revealed an excellent body score, noisy breathing, moderate dehydration, absence of hind limb and cloacal reflexes when stimulated by pressure, and two traumatic injuries characteristic of a collision with a motorboat. After three days of supportive treatment, the animal died and was immediately sent for necropsy. The animal had a complete fracture of the vertebral bodies (dorsal elements D9 and D10) and spinal cord section. The entire gastrointestinal tract had food content, in addition to sharp injuries in the colon caused by the bone fragments of the fractured carapace. The lungs were congested, hemorrhagic with frothy and bloody secretion, and interstitial bronchiole fibrosis. There was also present some fibrin and a large number of leukocyte cells, consisting mainly of macrophages. The liver was enlarged, with rounded edges and thickening of the capsule, multifocal areas of hepatocellular necrosis, and dissociation of the hepatocyte cords. The collision resulted in the exposure of the coelomic cavity and spinal cord, causing the animal intense pain, paralysis of the hind limbs and cloaca, septicemia, and consequently, death.

- Abstract
Reports of intussusception in sea turtles are generally linked to marine debris ingestion; therefore, only a few cases of the disease are associated with parasitic infestations. The objective of this study was to describe the necropsy findings of the first reported case of colocolic intussusception in a green sea turtle Chelonia mydas, associated with the helminth Octangiumsp. A juvenile female green sea turtle, which was registered and rescued by the team from the Cetaceans Project of Costa Branca, State University of Rio Grande do Norte, was examined. The animal died 1 d after being treated and was immediately submitted for necropsy. Our findings indicated that parasitic infestation by Octangiumsp. in the green sea turtle caused intussusception and consequently led to the animal’s death. Early diagnosis and surgical correction are fundamental for a good prognosis and, consequently, for successful rehabilitation of marine species.

- Abstract
The genus Oryzais a model system for the study of molecular evolution over time scales ranging from a few thousand to 15 million years. Using 13 reference genomes spanning the Oryzaspecies tree, we show that despite few large-scale chromosomal rearrangements rapid species diversification is mirrored by lineage-specific emergence and turnover of many novel elements, including transposons, and potential new coding and noncoding genes. Our study resolves controversial areas of the Oryzaphylogeny, showing a complex history of introgression among different chromosomes in the young ‘AA’ subclade containing the two domesticated species. This study highlights the prevalence of functionally coupled disease resistance genes and identifies many new haplotypes of potential use for future crop protection. Finally, this study marks a milestone in modern rice research with the release of a complete long-read assembly of IR 8 ‘Miracle Rice’, which relieved famine and drove the Green Revolution in Asia 50 years ago.

- Abstract
At a major referral hospital in the Southern Hemisphere, the 2009 influenza A (H1N1) pandemic brought increased critical care demand and more unscheduled nursing absences. Because of careful preparedness planning, including rapid expansion and redistribution of the numbers of available beds and staff, hospital surge capacity was not exceeded.

- Abstract
ABSTRACTObjectives:During the 2009 influenza A (H1N1) pandemic, Argentina's Hospital Nacional Profesor Alejandro Posadas, a referral center in the capital province of Buenos Aires, treated a large urban patient population. Beginning in April, after severe influenza had been reported in North America but before any suspected cases of H1N1 had been reported in Argentina, the authors formed a pandemic planning committee to direct our hospital's response. An important strategy of the management team was to create a single daily monitoring tool that could integrate multiple information sources. We describe our pandemic planning strategy so that it may serve as a template for other hospitals.Methods:We describe our integrated data management system and the indicators it measured. We also describe the iterative process used to develop these tools and the current versions we use in surveillance for possible new waves of pandemic influenza.Results:We present 3 examples of strategic decision making applied to data from our integrated information system. Daily pandemic surveillance data motivated the planning committee to reallocate hospital resources to care for patients during the peak pandemic period.Conclusions:This report illustrates the importance of pandemic planning and advanced integrated information tools for management of a health care facility during a pandemic.(Disaster Med Public Health Preparedness. 2010;4:207-212)

- Abstract
Introduction:The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is the ratio between systolic blood pressure of the upper and lower limbs. A low ABI (<0.9) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular and stroke outcomes. However, ABI relevance for functional outcomes is unknown.Objective:We aimed to investigate if low ABI is associated with functional outcome in stroke patients.Methods:Consecutive patients with imaging-confirmed ischemic stroke were recruited from a public hospital in Salvador, Brazil. Demographic and cerebrovascular risk factor data were collected prospectively. We used NIH stroke scale to quantify stroke severity and ABI was measured on admission. Patients were followed for 90 days and functional outcome was assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Poor outcome was defined as a mRS = 3 to 6. Logistic regression was used to adjust for potential confounders of poor outcome.Results:We recruited 376 patients with ischemic stroke between October 2018 and October 2019, mean age 64 +/- 13 years, 189 (49%) female. Median ABI was 1.06 (interquartile range - IQR 0.93 to 1.13). After 90 days, 209 (56%) patients had poor outcome. Low ABI was more frequent in patients with poor outcome (38% vs 18%, p=0.0001). After adjustment for age, sex and cerebrovascular risk factors, low ABI remained a significant predictor of poor outcome (odds ratio 2.10; 95% confidence interval 1.24 - 3.55, p=0.006).Conclusions:Low ABI is an independent predictor of poor outcome in acute stroke patients. Assessment of ABI on admission is clinically useful as a prognostic tool and should be more routinely implemented.

- Abstract
Introduction:Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent after stroke and associated with stroke recurrence. Several clinical scales have been used to predict OSA, but their relevance for functional outcomes are unknown.Objective:We aimed to determine if a sleep apnea risk score is associated with functional outcome in stroke patients.Methods:Consecutive patients with imaging-confirmed ischemic stroke were recruited from a public hospital in Salvador, Brazil. Demographic and cerebrovascular risk factor data were collected prospectively. We used NIH stroke scale (NIHSS) to quantify stroke severity and STOP-BANG questionnaire to quantify risk of OSA on admission (0 to 8, higher scores indicating higher risk). Patients were followed for 90 days and functional outcome was assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Poor outcome was defined as a mRS = 3 to 6.Results:We recruited 382 patients with ischemic stroke between October, 2018 and November, 2019, mean age 64 +/- 13 years, 189 (49.5%) female, median NIHSS 8 (interquartile range - IQR - 6 to 14) and median STOP-BANG score 5 (IQR 4 to 5). After 90 days, 216 (56.5%) had poor outcomes. Median STOP-BANG score was higher in patients with poor, when compared to good outcomes (4 vs 3, respectively, p=0.001). In multivariable logistic regression, STOP-BANG score was independently associated with poor outcome (odds ratio 1.56, 95% confidence interval 1.02 to 2.63, p=0.003), after adjustment for age, sex, NIHSS, cerebrovascular risk factors and stroke etiology. When STOP-BANG score was stratified by OSA risk, patients with mild, moderate and high OSA risk reached poor outcomes in 38.2%, 58.7% and 62.1%, respectively (p=0.004).Conclusions:A simple sleep apnea risk score (STOP-BANG) is independently associated with poor functional outcome in ischemic stroke patients.
