El Staphylococcus aureus (Sau) es una bacteria aerobia de la familia de los cocos gram positivos, puede causar infecciones en pacientes internados en hospitales y en pacientes ambulatorios. El principal reservorio es el humano, el 30 % de la población es portadora en las vías respiratorias superiores. El objetivo del estudio fue describir la portación nasal de Staphylococcus aureus en los alumnos del 2do curso de la carrera de medicina de la Universidad Privada del Este de Ciudad del Este, Paraguay. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, prospectivo, de corte transversal realizado de abril a junio de 2018. La población fue de 69 alumnos de los cuales participaron voluntariamente el 84% (n=58), 15 varones y 43 mujeres, la mayoría entre 20 a 35 años. Se realizó cultivo de hisopado nasal de los 58 alumnos, en agar sangre, para la búsqueda de Staphylococcus aureus de los cuales el 31 %(n=18) resultó con crecimiento de la bacteria, el 6,6% (n=1) presentó resistencia a la meticilina (SARM) y el 55,5% (n=10) presentó resistencia a la Clindamicina. El porcentaje de Sau encontrado en el estudio corresponde con el descrito en la literatura. La portación nasal puede contribuir a la diseminación de infecciones en los pacientes internados de los hospitales, por contacto directo con los pacientes, por éste motivo se podría implementar la búsqueda y la descolonización de los profesionales de la salud que portan el Sau en las vías respiratorias superiores.
ELUSIVE PEACE AND THE IMPACT OF UNGOVERNED SPACE IN THE SAHEL CONFLICT
Authors: NYADERA İsrael Nyaburi , MASSAOUD M. Hamani
Published: November 2019

The Sahel region has become synonymous with violence

over the last three decades. Poverty, rapid population growth, food insecurity,

climate change, human trafficking, migration, and poor governance have

dominated the literature on the causes of instability in a region also referred

to as ‘the corridor of conflict. Of concern has been the rapid increase in

terror-related attacks as well as violent extremism. According to the Global

Terrorism Index ranking, Mali, Niger, and Chad, as well as the neighboring

Libya and Nigeria, are among the top 30 countries affected by terrorism. This

paper seeks to examine the instability in the Sahel through the ungoverned

space theory lenses. It interogates the evolution of the crisis, and the

relationship between the ungoverned spaces in the region and the unending conflict.

It argues that years of systematic marginalization and ineffective

administration have created pockets of ungoverned territories which are being

exploited by armed groups. Based on the findings, this paper recommends a

multidimensional approach that combines military, social and economic reforms, as well as inclusivity in proportional means to

achieve peace and stability in the region

Published: November 2019

Introduction. Development of methodical base of information hygiene, systematization of data on levels of information loadings and degree of their influence on working conditions of workers is actual.

The purpose of the study was to measure and evaluate the levels of information mental load of office workers, to study the patterns of development of adverse functional States in this professional group.

Materials and methods. The pilot study included 25 employees of scientific and educational institutions aged 25 to 65 years. Measurement of information mental load of workers was carried out on the basis of a point assessment. Psychodiagnostics of performance of participants of research was carried out by means of a package of standard techniques. Heart rate telemetry was carried out in employees in the conditions of professional activity.

Results. The integral indicator of information mental load of the studied professional group was 37.3±7.2 points and was in direct connection with the coefficient of comfort of the workplace (r=0.5, p=0.01). A reliable dependence of the speed of information processing on the length of work experience (r=0.71, p=0.0001) was also established. In the low-stress group, high indices of stress, fatigue, monotony were recorded in the workers, in the senior group — signs of chronic fatigue. The employees during the shift registered an increase in sympathetic activation.

Conclusions. The results of the psychophysiological survey of employees indicate the need to regulate the information load, the development and implementation of preventive measures to reduce professional stress.

Authors: Dimeyeva L. A. , Sultanova B. M. , Islamgulova A. F. , Permitina V. N.
Published: November 2019

The paper presents the results of vegetation studies in the Zaisan depression. The middle-scale vegetation map (s. 1 : 500 000) was created. Dominant species of vegetation cover form several ecological-physiognomic vegetation types: psammophytic shrub, psammophytic wormwood, psammophytic grass, perennial saltwort, sagebrush, shrub, saxaul, sagebrush – bunch grass, coniferous forest; floodplain meadow, shrub and woody are characteristic types of river valleys. These types are represented in the map legend. Analysis of the ecological preferences of the dominant species of Zaisan depression revealed the edaphic amplitude of plant species. A large part of dwarf semishrubs (sagebrushes and perennial saltworts) is characterized by wide edaphic amplitude. Shrub Spiraea hypericifolia has also a wide edaphic range. Stipa sareptana is the most ecologically labile species among bunch grasses. Zaisan saxaul is mainly grows on brown and gray-brown soils. The legend to the map is compiled on the base of zonal-typological principle, it contains 35 numbers. 8 numbers of the legend show the homogeneous vegetation, 27 – heterogeneous vegetation. Zonal types of vegetation occupy 64% of the territory (deserts – 32.4%, steppes – 31.6%); intrazonal vegetation – 23.6%. About 17% of the territory is agricultural lands, mostly located in the steppe zone.

Published: November 2019

Phalaroides arundinacea - dominated сommunities of small river sources and valleys in the Upper Volga Region correspond to the 2 associations in Braun-Blanquet system: Phalaridetum arundinaceae W. Koch ex Libb. 1931 (class Phragmito-Magnocaricetea Klika 1941, order Magnocaricetalia Pign. 1953, alliance Magno­caricion elatae W. Koch 1926) and Filipendulо-Phala­roidetum (Sambuk 1931) nom. nov. (class Molinio-Arrhe­natheretea R. Tx. 1937, order Molinietalia caeruleae W. Koch 1926, alliance Filipendulion Segal 1966). The first of them comprises phytocenoses of damp, wet or periodically flooded habitats on fresh alluvia, whereas the second one is bound to moderately moist ecotopes with richer soils. Communities of the both associations differ from similar coenoses of other regions in low species richness and small areas occupied.

A new set of data depicting plant communities on solonetz and salinized soils of the Southern Ural is given according to the Braun-Blanquet approach. The new alliance Poo bulbosae—Artemision pauciflorae which comprises associations on automorphic chestnut and chernozem solonetz soils, namely Poo bulbosae—Arte­misietum pauciflorae ass. nov., Puccinellio tenuissi­mae—Li­mo­nietum suffruticosi ass. nov., Leymo ramo­si—Arte­mi­sietum austriacae ass. nov., Festuco becke­ri—Ar­te­misie­tum lerchianae ass. nov., and Festuco valesiacae—Artemisietum austriacae ass. nov., is estab­lished. The alliance communities are spread in the south-easternmost part of the Bashkortostan Republic and the Orenburg region, as well as in the adjacent areas of the Northern Kazakhstan (Aktyubinsk and Kustanai regions). Viewed in the syntaxonomic space, this unit occupies the place between the classes Festuco-Puccinellietea Soó 1968 and Artemisietea lerchianae Golub 1994. Low standards of current syntaxonomic knowledge of steppe and desert plant communities of Russia and neighbouring countries make it difficult to determine of the alliance position in the system of higher syntaxa precisely. Some lower syntaxa of the all. Festuco-Limonion gmelinii Mirkin ex Golub et V. Solomakha 1988, uniting steppe plant communities on semiautomorphic solonetz soils of the Southern Ural, namely Puccinellietum tenuissimae artemisietosum lerchianae subass. nov., Stemmacantho serratuloidis—Puccinellietum dolicholepidis ass. nov., and Festuco pratensis—Artemisietum lerchianae ass. nov., are also described in the paper.
Floristic regional subdivision and syntaxonomy
Authors: Bulokhov A. D.
Published: November 2019

The advantages of using floristic subdivision of the area for syntaxonomic purposes are discussed. The analysis of changes in floristic composition of East-European broad-leaved forest communities along the West-East continentality gradient shows that floristic differences between the adjacent provinces correspond to changes in species composition at the association or the alliance level. A new association, Lathyro nigri—Quercetum roburis (all. Aceri tatarici—Quercion Zolyomi 1957, order Quercetalia pubescenti-petraeae Klika 1933), is established for the Southern Non-Chernozem region of European Russia.

The paper characterizes a new association, Pedi­cularo lapponicae—Salicetum lanatae ass. nov., distin­guished by the floristic criteria and referred to the alliance Arcto erytrocarpae-Salicion all. nov. which comprises eutrophic willow shrub communities of Chukotka and Alaska. The association is described fr om the middle reaches of the Palyavaam R., the area located in the fringe, rather dissected part of the Chukotka Plateau. The vegetation of this area is more typical of the southern than of the northern hypoarctic tundras in its general outlook and life-form compo­sition. The Pedicularo lapponicae—Salicetum lanatae communities represent the impoverished and more moistened variants of the eutrophic willow thickets from the eastern part of the Chukotka Peninsula wh ere the Paleozoic carbonate outcrops are present. Commu­nities similar in their floristic composition are probable to be met in the other parts of the Arctic, but the center of their distribution ranges is undoubtedly bound to the montane areas of Beringian Chukotka.

PROSES PEMILU DAN PILKADA
Authors: Hrp Adewiyatun Rahma , Pulungan Rohayani , Suryani
Published: November 2019

Pemilu dalam negara demokrasi Indonesia adalah suatu proses pergantian kekuasaan secara damai yang dilakukan secara berkala sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip yang digariskan konstitusi. Prinsip-prinsip dalam pemilihan umum yang sesuai dengan konstitusi antara lain prinsip kehidupan ketatanegaraan yang berkedaulatan rakyat (demokrasi) ditandai bahwa setiap warga negara berhak ikut aktif dalam setiap proses pengambilan keputusa kenegaraan. Sebuah negara berbentuk republik memiliki sistem pemerintahan yang tidak pernah lepas dari pengawasan rakyatnya. Adalah demokrasi, sebuah bentuk pemerintahan yang terbentuk karena kemauan rakyat dan bertujuan untuk memenuhi kepentingan rakyat itu sendiri. Demokrasi adalah sebuah proses, artinya sebuah republik tidak akan terhenti di satu bentuk pemerintahan selama rakyat negara tersebut memiliki kemauan yang terus berubah. Ada kalanya rakyat menginginkan pengawasan yang super ketat terhadap pemerintah, tetapi ada pula saatnya rakyat bosan dengan para wakilnya yang terus bertingkah karena kekuasaan yang seakan akan tak ada batasnya. Berbeda dengan monarki yang menjadikan garis keturunan sebagai landasan untuk memilih pemimpin, pada republik demokrasi diterapkan azas kesamaan di mana setiap orang yang memiliki kemampuan untuk memimpin dapat menjadi pemimpin apabila ia disukai oleh sebagian besar rakyat. Pemerintah telah membuat sebuah perjanjian dengan rakyatnya yang ia sebut dengan istilah kontrak sosial. Dalam sebuah republik demokrasi, kontrak sosial atau perjanjian masyarakat ini diwujudkan dalam sebuah pemilihan umum, rakyat dapat memilih siapa yang menjadi wakilnya dalam proses penyaluran aspirasi, yang selanjutnya menentukan masa depan sebuah negara. Indonesia sebagai salah satu negara berkembang dan juga sebagai demokrasi yang yang sedang berusaha mencapai stabilitas nasional dan memantapkan kehidupan politik juga mengalami gejolak-gejolak sosial dan politik dalam proses pemilihan umum. Dalam perkembangan kehidupan politiknya, Indonesia selalu berusaha memperbaharui sistem pemilihan umum baik itu dengan mengadopsi sistem yang ada di dunia Barat (walaupun tidak semuanya bekerja efektif di dalam negeri kita) untuk mencapai stabilitas nasional dan politik.
Beyond “fake news”: Analytic thinking and the detection of false and hyperpartisan news headlines
Authors: Ross Robert M , Rand David Gertler , Pennycook Gordon
Published: November 2019

Why is misleading partisan content believed and shared? An influential account posits that political partisanship pervasively biases reasoning, such that engaging in analytic thinking exacerbates motivated reasoning and, in turn, the acceptance of hyperpartisan content. Alternatively, it may be that susceptibility to hyperpartisan content is explained by a lack of reasoning. Across two studies using different participant pools (total N = 1,973 Americans), we had participants assess true, false, and hyperpartisan news headlines taken from social media. We found no evidence that analytic thinking was associated with judging politically consistent hyperpartisan or false headlines to be accurate and unbiased. Instead, analytic thinking was associated with an increased capacity to discern between true headlines and both false and hyperpartisan headlines in most cases (and never associated with decreased discernment). These results suggest that reasoning typically helps people differentiate between low and high quality political news, rather than facilitate belief in misleading content. Because social media plays an important role in the dissemination of misinformation, we also investigated willingness to share headlines on social media. We found a similar pattern whereby analytic thinking was not associated with increased willingness to share hyperpartisan or false headlines. Together, these results suggest a positive role for reasoning in resisting misinformation.
The Social Media Game? How Gamification Shapes Our Social Media Engagement.
Authors: Hristova Dayana , Goebl Barbara , Jovicic Suzana , Slunecko Thomas
Published: November 2019

This chapter provides an overview of the gamification elements currently applied by three popular social media platforms: Snapchat, Instagram and Facebook. Their gamified ele- ments are analysed within the framework of motivational psychology theories and persuasive design. The question is then addressed if through social media’s extensive use of gamifica- tion elements, it has been turning into a game. Finally, the ethical implications of gamification’s use are discussed. The focus thereby lies on social comparison, surveillance, the intransparent application of psychological models and the “obligation” to have fun.
Scientific Literacy Based on Three Things Dependency
Authors: Setiawan Adib Rifqi
Published: November 2019

Burhān al-Dīn al-Zarnūjī in his treatise Ta'līm al-Muta'allim Ṭorīq al-Ta'allum proposed that the academic achievement has six things dependency: ingenious acumen (intelligences), fervent desire (motivation), resilience (patience when find difficulties), sufficent sustenance (to complete learning), guidance of a teacher (through learning), and length of time (intensively). Based on this perspective, we was empirically tested students scientific literacy through correlational research. In particular, first, multiple intelligences was examined based on Multiple Intelligences Survey (MIS). Second, science learning motivation was explored used Science Motivation Questionnaire II (SMQ-II). Third, adversity quotient was measured with Adversity Response Profile (ARP). Fourth, scientific literacy was tested with Scientific Literacy Test (SLT) that focused on three competencies. The participants were 50 students in Kabupaten Kudus choosen by purposive sampling technique. Pearson r was used to elaborate relation of scientific literacy with each type of multiple intelligences, components of learning motivation, dimensions of adversity quotient as well. The findings suggest that it is important to facilitate that factors to guide students on achieving scientific literacy.
Facing bureaucratic uncertainty in the Bolsa Família Program
Authors: Eiró Flávio , Koster Martijn
Published: November 2019

Clientelism is often analyzed along lines of moral values and reciprocity or an economic rationality. This article, instead, moves beyond this dichotomy and shows how both frameworks coexist and become entwined. Based on ethnographic research in a city in the Brazilian Northeast, it analyzes how the anti-poverty Bolsa Família Program and its bureaucracy are entangled with electoral politics and clientelism. We show how the program’s beneficiaries engage in clientelist relationships and exchanges to deal with structural precariousness and bureaucratic uncertainty. Contributing to understanding the complexity of clientelism, our analysis demonstrates how they, in their assessment of and dealing with political candidates, employ the frames of reference of both reciprocity and economic rationality in such a way that they act as a “counterpoint” to each other.

The article discusses the actual aspects of the metallogeny of the Pacific volcanic belts (PVB), which are a complexes of volcanogenic-plutogenic formations associated with the development of the marginal lithosphere and has an expressive specificity of ore formation. It is shown that over time the notions of metallogenic homogeneity of PVB have received a new justification from the position of global plate tectonics. Metallogenic significance of Ag/Au relationships in ore deposits of the PVB is shown. The correlation between porphyry-epithermal and the VMS ore-forming systems, regenerated and rejuvenated epithermal deposits is discussed. Global metallogenic homogeneity of the Pacific ore belt suggests a wide development of analogues of American volcanogenic deposits in its Asian half, including in the North-East of Russia. The main part of the internal zone of the Okhotsko-Chukchi marginal volcanic belt the Udo-Murgal island-arc belt, as well as the Uyandino-Yasachensky and Oloysky volcanic belts, are similar in geological structure not only to the Japanese green tuffs province, but also to other Pacific volcanic zones of the island-arc type and, therefore, within their limits, there is a high probability of revealing the entire variety of deposits of the VMS ore-formation series.

Neurocognitive disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), affect millions of people worldwide and are characterized by cognitive decline. Human and animal studies have shown that chronic immune response and inflammation are important factors in the pathogenesis of AD. Chronic inflammation can accelerate the aggregation of amyloid-β peptides and later hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins. The exact etiology of AD is not clear, but genetics and environmental factors, such as age, family history, and lifestyle are linked to neurodegenerative diseases. Lifestyle habits, such as poor diet, are associated with inflammation and could accelerate or slow down the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Here we provide a review of the potential conditions and factors that stimulate the inflammatory processes in AD. An understanding of inflammatory mechanisms influencing the development of AD may help to protect against dementia and AD.
Modeling Tumor Heterogeneity in Bladder Cancer: The Current State of the Field and Future Needs
Authors: Seyer Amanda K. , Lehman Heather L. , DeGraff David J.
Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND:

Tumor heterogeneity has been recognized in many cancer types for decades. However, the significance of tumor heterogeneity on disease course and clinical outcome in bladder cancer is of more recent interest to researchers and clinicians. This is especially true as morphologic and molecular heterogeneity has the potential to confound accurate diagnosis, efficient prognostication, and subsequent clinical management. While this is true, it is not always clear what laboratory models are available or suitable for the study of these important clinical phenomena.

OBJECTIVE:

To review in vitro and in vivo laboratory models for the study of morphologic and molecular tumor heterogeneity in bladder cancer.

METHODS:

We undertook a review of PubMed with a focus on identifying suitable models for the study of tumor heterogeneity in bladder cancer.

RESULTS:

We provide a review of common in vivo (genetically engineered mice and patient-derived xenografts) and in vitro (established cell lines and organoid systems) models and discuss their utility in the study of morphologic and molecular tumor heterogeneity in bladder cancer.

CONCLUSION:

Genetically engineered mouse models and patient-derived xenografts provide complementary approaches for the study of tumor heterogeneity in bladder cancer. In addition, cell culture-based systems provide a system amenable to genetic manipulation and mechanistic studies, while organoid systems bridge the gap between in vivo and in vitro systems. However, the availability of models to study molecular heterogeneity is limited, partly because of a relative lack of molecular characterization of available models. In summary, while models for the study of specific subsets of morphologic heterogeneity are available, more models are required for studies of molecular heterogeneity. This shortcoming could be partially addressed by more comprehensively characterizing currently available model systems. In addition, each system/approach has advantages and disadvantages, and care should be taken when selecting a given model.

Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND:

Motorsport karting has developed into a professional international competition. Kart racing poses a unique set of physiologic challenges for athletes who compete in this sport. Until today no major study has evaluated the physical and cardiac challenge in professional kart racing.

OBJECTIVE:

The aim for this study was to measure and analyze heart rate and cardiac rhythm by a mobile, smartphone based ECG (s-patch) on professional kart-race-drivers during actual karting races through annual seasons to test the hypotheses that high g-force and stress could trigger cardiac arrhythmia.

MATERIAL AND METHODS:

ECG-data from kart-drivers were acquired during local races, the ADAC Kart-Masters (KZ2), the German Kart Championship (DSKC) and the European Championship Senior CIK-FIA-Serie and analyzed in this observational study. In total, free practice, qualifying practice and 32 races were assessed during the kart season 2019. Data were interpreted by two independent experienced physicians.

RESULTS:

The average heart rate (HR) during a selected German Kart Championship (DSKC) race in Genk (Belgium) was 169 beats min-1. The longest R-R interval was 0.72 sec. The average HR during a selected European Championship CIK-FIA-race in Lonato (Italy) was 160 beats min-1. The longest R-R interval was 0.74 sec. The average HR during a selected ADAC Kart-Masters (KZ2) races in Wackersdorf (Germany) was 147 beats min-1. The longest R-R interval was 0.86 sec. In total 32 races could be recorded successful. No couplets or bigeminy cycles were detected. In one other kart racer a supraventricular extrasystole and a ventricular extrasystole was detected. Interestingly, kart-drivers were found to have sinustachycardia throughout the races most likely triggered by emotional and physiological stress during speeding.

CONCLUSION:

Professional kart racing drivers had sinustachycardia with heart rates up to 193 beats min-1 during races. This is most likely attributed to a considerably high emotional and physiological stress affecting the cardiovascular system. Episodes of tachycardia positively correlated with mean speed. In the warm-up lap the heart rate was significantly lower in comparison to the race, suggesting that faster driving speed would induce greater cardiovascular stress to professional drivers during actual races. The experimental results showed that the proposed S-patch system provided a good ECG signal quality with accurate measurements even during the kart race and could detect the ECG features of the race in real time. The cardiac interpretation software performs well and is a useful tool to assist clinicians.
The role of public agencies in blockchain consortia: Learning from the Cardossier
Authors: Schwabe Gerhard
Published: November 2019

Blockchain technologies enable new forms of data sharing in platforms. This raises questions around how they are jointly developed and managed in blockchain consortia and what role public agencies play in those efforts. Based on an analysis of prior work on data sharing in public-private partnerships and other blockchain projects, we analyze the case of the Cardossier. The Cardossier project and (later) association develops a platform to link the public and private actors in the Swiss car ecosystem. The participating car registration authority has the roles of an actor in interorganizational processes, supplier of data, source of trust, guarantor of data quality, user of data, and incentive for making goods public. We conclude that the public agencies have a very important role in blockchain consortia and propose that they should use this role actively as part of their efforts to create public value.
Is There a Shared Etiology of Olfactory Impairments in Normal Aging and Neurodegenerative Disease?
Authors: Parvand Mahraz , Rankin Catharine H.
Published: November 2019

As we age, our olfactory function declines. In addition to occurring in normal aging, more rapid decrement of olfactory decline has been associated with several neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). It has been argued that since olfactory deficits occur less frequently or are absent in diseases such as progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, and multiple system atrophy, olfactory deficits can be used for differential diagnoses of AD and PD. The purpose of this review is to provide a survey of current knowledge about the molecular bases and differential patterns of olfactory deficits present in normal aging, AD, and PD. As substantial research has been conducted in this area, the majority of the content of this review focuses on articles published in the past decade. We hypothesize that olfactory deficits in normal aging, AD, and PD may have different underlying causes, and propose the use of model organisms with small, tractable nervous systems and/or easy to manipulate genomes to further investigate the cellular mechanisms responsible for these deficits.

Published: November 2019

Background:

Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) occur frequently in the course of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and are suspected to be associated with a faster dementia progression. Numerous reports have defined specific subsyndromes, summarized in clusters of items of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI).

Objective:

This study investigated the influence of specific NPI subsyndromes and clinical patient characteristics on dementia progression.

Methods:

Data of the prospective registry on dementia in Austria (PRODEM) were retrospectively analyzed. Cognitive functioning was determined at baseline and 2 yearly follow-up visits using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer’s dementia neuropsychological test battery (CERAD). To assess NPS, the NPI was used: NPI items were classified in three subsyndromes (psychotic cluster, behavioral cluster, emotional cluster).

Results:

Out of the 662 included patients (mean age 76.4±8.4 years), 43% completed follow-up visits for two years. Significant correlation between higher scores in all three subsyndromes and worse cognitive performance were found for MMSE score, naming, and verbal fluency. Results of linear mixed model analysis revealed lower age and higher scores in the psychotic cluster as significant predictors of changes in MMSE with time.

Conclusion:

In this study, we report the influence of psychotic subsyndromes and lower age on faster MMSE decline in early AD. These results emphasize the importance of not only assessing but also differentiating neuropsychiatric symptoms in subsyndromes in the early stages of AD as a possible predictor of disease progression.

Published: November 2019

Treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has evolved rapidly since the development of checkpoint inhibitors. Most of the studies have been conducted in patients with metastatic disease and led to a significant change in the treatment landscape. Currently, many studies are investigating immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting and the efficacy of combination therapies. It remains difficult to predict which patients will respond best. Consequently, there is a high need for predictive biomarkers. In this review, we discuss the different studies with ICI in RCC and the molecular correlates with clinical outcome.

Authors: Dadiz R. , Nair J. , D’Angio C.T. , Ryan R.M. , Lakshminrusimha S.
Published: November 2019

BACKGROUND:

We aimed to investigate whether the change in methemoglobin levels (ΔMHb) predicts oxygenation response to inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) with lung disease, with or without pulmonary hypoplasia.

METHODS:

In this prospective observational study, infants were categorized based on ΔMHb and oxygenation response (ΔPaO2/FiO2) following iNO: ΔMHb ≤0 or ΔMHb>0, and ΔPaO2/FiO2 < 20 mmHg (Non-responder) or≥20 mmHg (Responder). ΔMHb levels were compared among infants with or without pulmonary hypoplasia.

RESULTS:

Among infants with pulmonary hypoplasia ( n = 28), ΔMHb was not associated with an oxygenation response to iNO or survival without ECMO. Among infants without hypoplasia ( n = 29), subjects with ΔMHb>0 following iNO ( n = 21) had a greater ΔPaO2/FiO2 (median, 64 mmHg; IQR, 127; p < 0.01) and 100% survival without extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) when compared to infants with ΔMHb ≤0 ( n = 8; median 10 mmHg; IQR, 33).

CONCLUSIONS:

PPHN secondary to lung disease without hypoplasia with increased ΔMHb following iNO was associated with better oxygenation response and survival without ECMO compared to subjects without an increase in MHb.
