29. Supplemental vitamin E and selenium effects on egg production, egg quality, and egg deposition of {alpha}-tocopherol and selenium

Scheideler, S. E., Weber, P., and Monsalve, D.
- Abstract
Diets were fed to laying hens for 12 wk during hot summer weather (34 to 35°C high temperatures daily) to investigate the effects of feeding higher levels of the dietary antioxidants
dl -a-tocopherol and selenium (from 2 sources, inorganic or organic) on egg production and egg quality. High basal levels of selenium were present in the corn-soybean meal diets (0.25 ppm), resulting in selenium treatment levels of 0.55 or 0.75 ppm; supplemented a-tocopherol treatments were 50, 100, or 150 IU/kg of diet. Increasing dietary selenium had a positive effect on egg production and egg mass (g of egg/d) as well as stored egg vitelline membrane strength. Vitamin E supplementation did not affect egg production except during wk 7 of the trial, during a particularly hot period in which hens fed the higher levels of vitamin E (100 or 150 ppm) did not have a decline in egg production. Yolk vitelline membrane strength improved with vitamin E supplementation in fresh eggs and eggs stored for 2 wk. Vitamin E supplementation also affected egg pH, improving albumen pH by decreasing pH of freshly laid eggs. Yolk a-tocopherol increased linearly with vitamin E supplementation. Yolk selenium content also increased with dietary Se supplementation and was deposited more efficiently when feeding the organic source (Sel-Plex) compared with the inorganic source of selenium. In summary, vitamin E and selenium can be supplemented to a laying hen ration to improve the vitelline membrane strength of fresh and aged eggs while also increasing the levels of these nutrients in the egg yolk.- Published

Eser, Sultan (Balikesir Author), Background In 2015, the second cycle of the CONCORD programme established global surveillance of cancer survival as a metric of the effectiveness of health systems and to inform global policy on cancer control. CONCORD-3 updates the worldwide surveillance of cancer survival to 2014. Methods CONCORD-3 includes individual records for 37.5 million patients diagnosed with cancer during the 15-year period 2000-14. Data were provided by 322 population-based cancer registries in 71 countries and territories, 47 of which provided data with 100% population coverage. The study includes 18 cancers or groups of cancers: oesophagus, stomach, colon, rectum, liver, pancreas, lung, breast (women), cervix, ovary, prostate, and melanoma of the skin in adults, and brain tumours, leukaemias, and lymphomas in both adults and children. Standardised quality control procedures were applied; errors were rectified by the registry concerned. We estimated 5-year net survival. Estimates were age-standardised with the International Cancer Survival Standard weights.Findings For most cancers, 5-year net survival remains among the highest in the world in the USA and Canada, in Australia and New Zealand, and in Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. For many cancers, Denmark is closing the survival gap with the other Nordic countries. Survival trends are generally increasing, even for some of the more lethal cancers: in some countries, survival has increased by up to 5% for cancers of the liver, pancreas, and lung. For women diagnosed during 2010-14, 5-year survival for breast cancer is now 89.5% in Australia and 90.2% in the USA, but international differences remain very wide, with levels as low as 66.1% in India. For gastrointestinal cancers, the highest levels of 5-year survival are seen in southeast Asia: in South Korea for cancers of the stomach (68.9%), colon (71.8%), and rectum (71.1%); in Japan for oesophageal cancer (36.0%); and in Taiwan for liver cancer (27.9%). By contrast, in the same world region, survival is generally lower than elsewhere for melanoma of the skin (59.9% in South Korea, 52.1% in Taiwan, and 49.6% in China), and for both lymphoid malignancies (52.5%, 50.5%, and 38.3%) and myeloid malignancies (45.9%, 33.4%, and 24.8%). For children diagnosed during 2010-14, 5-year survival for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia ranged from 49.8% in Ecuador to 95.2% in Finland. 5-year survival from brain tumours in children is higher than for adults but the global range is very wide (from 28.9% in Brazil to nearly 80% in Sweden and Denmark). Interpretation The CONCORD programme enables timely comparisons of the overall effectiveness of health systems in providing care for 18 cancers that collectively represent 75% of all cancers diagnosed worldwide every year. It contributes to the evidence base for global policy on cancer control. Since 2017, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development has used findings from the CONCORD programme as the official benchmark of cancer survival, among their indicators of the quality of health care in 48 countries worldwide. Governments must recognise population-based cancer registries as key policy tools that can be used to evaluate both the impact of cancer prevention strategies and the effectiveness of health systems for all patients diagnosed with cancer., American Cancer Society Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Swiss Re Swiss Cancer Research foundation Swiss Cancer League Institut National du Cancer La Ligue Contre le Cancer Rossy Family Foundation US National Cancer Institute Susan G Komen Foundation

- Abstract
Autoimmune diseases (ADs) showcase the intricate balance between the immune system's protective functions and its potential for self-inflicted damage. These disorders arise from the immune system's erroneous targeting of the body's tissues, resulting in damage and disease. The ability of T cells to distinguish between self and non-self-antigens is pivotal to averting autoimmune reactions. Perturbations in this process contribute to AD development. Autoreactive T cells that elude thymic elimination are activated by mimics of self-antigens or are erroneously activated by self-antigens can trigger autoimmune responses. Various mechanisms, including molecular mimicry and bystander activation, contribute to AD initiation, with specific triggers and processes varying across the different ADs. In addition, the formation of neo-epitopes could also be implicated in the emergence of autoreactivity. The specificity of T cell responses centers on the antigen recognition sequences expressed by T cell receptors (TCRs), which recognize peptide fragments displayed by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. The assortment of TCR gene combinations yields a diverse array of T cell populations, each with distinct affinities for self and non-self antigens. However, new evidence challenges the traditional notion that clonal expansion solely steers the selection of higher-affinity T cells. Lower-affinity T cells also play a substantial role, prompting the "two-hit" hypothesis. High-affinity T cells incite initial responses, while their lower-affinity counterparts perpetuate autoimmunity. Precision treatments that target antigen-specific T cells hold promise for avoiding widespread immunosuppression. Nevertheless, detection of such antigen-specific T cells remains a challenge, and multiple technologies have been developed with different sensitivities while still harboring several drawbacks. In addition, elements such as human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotypes and validation through animal models are pivotal for advancing these strategies. In brief, this review delves into the intricate mechanisms contributing to ADs, accentuating the pivotal role(s) of antigen-specific T cells in steering immune responses and disease progression, as well as the novel strategies for the identification of antigen-specific cells and their possible future use in humans. Grasping the mechanisms behind ADs paves the way for targeted therapeutic interventions, potentially enhancing treatment choices while minimizing the risk of systemic immunosuppression., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd.

- Abstract
The effect of the substitution of Ti by Zr on the crystal structure, microstructure, and first hydrogenation behavior of Ti
2-x Zrx CrV where X = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 have been investigated. The samples were synthesized by arc-melting and characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The hydrogenation capacity was measured using a home-made Sieverts apparatus. Pure-Ti2 CrV crystallizes in a body-centered cubic structure (BCC). Substitution of Ti by Zr leads to the appearance of a secondary phase, namely a C15 Laves phase for the Ti-containing samples, and C15 Laves phase plus a Zr-rich phase for the X = 2.0 sample. The substitution of Ti by Zr increased the lattice parameters in both phases for all samples. Increasing Zr content made the first hydrogenation faster but reduced the hydrogen capacity., Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (© 2024 The Authors.)- Published

- Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising cationic and amphipathic molecules to fight antibiotic resistance. To search for novel AMPs, we applied a computational strategy to identify peptide sequences within the organisms' proteome, including in-house developed software and artificial intelligence tools. After analyzing 150.450 proteins from eight proteomes of bacteria, plants, a protist, and a nematode, nine peptides were selected and modified to increase their antimicrobial potential. The 18 resulting peptides were validated by bioassays with four pathogenic bacterial species, one yeast species, and two cancer cell-lines. Fourteen of the 18 tested peptides were antimicrobial, with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) values under 10 µM against at least three bacterial species; seven were active against Candida albicans with MICs values under 10 µM; six had a therapeutic index above 20; two peptides were active against A549 cells, and eight were active against MCF-7 cells under 30 µM. This study's most active antimicrobial peptides damage the bacterial cell membrane, including grooves, dents, membrane wrinkling, cell destruction, and leakage of cytoplasmic material. The results confirm that the proposed approach, which uses bioinformatic tools and rational modifications, is highly efficient and allows the discovery, with high accuracy, of potent AMPs encrypted in proteins., (© 2024.

- Abstract
In this work, the hydrogen storage behavior of Ti
2 CrV + X wt.% Zr3 Fe, where X = 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 was investigated. The synthesis of all samples was carried out through arc-melting, followed by comprehensive characterization using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The pure-Ti2 CrV as-cast sample presented a single-phase microstructure. However, the addition of the Zr3 Fe led to a remarkable transformation, resulting in the appearance of a Zr-rich secondary phase. It was found that the first hydrogenation is improved with the addition of at least 6 wt% of Zr3 Fe, avoiding any preheating of the sample. These samples achieved their maximum capacity in approximately 10 min at room temperature. The maximum capacity recorded was 4.2 wt% H for the sample with X = 6 wt% Zr3 Fe, while for X = 8 and 10 wt% Zr3 Fe, the capacity recorded was 4.1 wt% and 4.0 wt%, respectively., Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (© 2023 The Authors.)- Published

- Abstract
Background: Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) is a technique developed to estimate heart rate using standard video cameras and ambient light. Due to the multiple sources of noise that deteriorate the quality of the signal, conventional filters such as the bandpass and wavelet-based filters are commonly used. However, after using conventional filters, some alterations remain, but interestingly an experienced eye can easily identify them., Results: We studied a long short-term memory (LSTM) network in the rPPG filtering task to identify these alterations using many-to-one and many-to-many approaches. We used three public databases in intra-dataset and cross-dataset scenarios, along with different protocols to analyze the performance of the method. We demonstrate how the network can be easily trained with a set of 90 signals totaling around 45 min. On the other hand, we show the stability of the LSTM performance with six state-of-the-art rPPG methods., Conclusions: This study demonstrates the superiority of the LSTM-based filter experimentally compared with conventional filters in an intra-dataset scenario. For example, we obtain on the VIPL database an MAE of 3.9 bpm, whereas conventional filtering improves performance on the same dataset from 10.3 bpm to 7.7 bpm. The cross-dataset approach presents a dependence in the network related to the average signal-to-noise ratio on the rPPG signals, where the closest signal-to-noise ratio values in the training and testing set the better. Moreover, it was demonstrated that a relatively small amount of data are sufficient to successfully train the network and outperform the results obtained by classical filters. More precisely, we have shown that about 45 min of rPPG signal could be sufficient to train an effective LSTM deep-filter., (© 2022. The Author(s).)

- Abstract
Background and Purpose: Zika virus (ZIKV) infection has been associated with an increased incidence of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) but the relative frequency of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP) and axonal GBS subtypes is controversial., Methods: Twenty GBS patients diagnosed according to the Brighton criteria during the ZIKV outbreak in Cúcuta, Colombia, were evaluated clinically and electrophysiologically. The electrodiagnosis of GBS subtypes was made according to a recently described criteria set that demonstrated a high diagnostic accuracy on the basis of a single test. The electrophysiological features of 34 Italian AIDP patients were used as control., Results: All patients had symptoms compatible with ZIKV infection before the onset of GBS and ZIKV infection was laboratory confirmed through a plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT
90 ) in 100% of patients. The median time from onset of ZIKV infection symptoms to GBS was 5 days (interquartile range 1-6 days). Cranial nerve palsy was present in 85% of patients (facial palsy in 75%, bulbar nerve involvement in 60%), autonomic dysfunction in 85%, and 50% of patients required invasive mechanical ventilation. AIDP was diagnosed in 70% of patients. 40% of nerves of AIDP patients showed a prevalent distal demyelinating involvement but this pattern was not different from the Italian AIDP patients without ZIKV infection., Conclusions: Guillain-Barré syndrome associated with ZIKV infection in Cúcuta is characterized by a high frequency of cranial nerve involvement, autonomic dysfunction and requirement of mechanical ventilation indicating an aggressive and severe course. AIDP is the most frequent electrophysiological subtype. Demyelination is prevalent distally but this pattern is not specific for ZIKV infection., (© 2017 EAN.)- Published

- Abstract
Purpose: Collect and analyze information regarding seroprevalence of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in a population of 722 patients that visited the Regional Viral Reference Laboratory (Maracaibo, Venezuela) during the years 2000-2003., Material and Methods: An immunoenzymatic test INNOTEST HCV Ab IV of Innogenetics was used to evaluate the presence of IgG type antibodies against the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in the serum of the patients studied. Results obtained with respect to seroprevalence and other epidemiological variables, were organized and analyzed using SPSS 10.0 (Chicago, USA) and Origin Pro 7.5 (Northampton, USA) software., Results: A seroprevalence of 2.63% (19,322) was found, higher than that reported in Venezuela for the general population (0.9%) and other groups. The infection was more frequent in men than in women. The most common symptoms in the infected patients were jaundice and cephalalgia (31.58%)., Conclusion: The data reported shall update previous research in the zone and indicates the need to develop epidemiological control for Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in the State of Zulia.

- Abstract
The adw4 subtype of hepatitis B virus (HBV) belongs to a unique genomic group (genotype F) representing the original HBV strains from the New World. Data regarding the prevalence of this subtype among HBV carriers in South America are, however, scarce, and those concerning HBV genotype F are based on only a few samples from Latin America. In this study, serum samples were obtained from 141 hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carriers from Amerindians and urban populations from Venezuela. The HBsAg subtype was identified with monoclonal antibodies in 105 samples, and the HBV genotype was identified by reverse-phase hybridization with DNA fragments in 58 samples. The adw4 subtype was highly prevalent in the population studied (75%); among the Amerindians, the prevalence was 97%. The adw2 subtype was also present (10%), while other subtypes (ayw3 and ayw4) were only occasionally found. The HBV subtype was associated with the expected genotype in most cases (80%), and thus genotype F was highly prevalent. Sequencing of viral strains that gave genotypes unpredicted by the HBsAg subtyping confirmed seven of them as belonging to not previously described genotype-subtype associations: namely, adw2 and ayw4 within genotype F.
