Abstract
From the first cases in 2019, COVID-19 infections caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have resulted in over 6 million human deaths in a worldwide pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 is commonly spread from human to human through close contact and is capable of infecting both humans and animals. Worldwide, there have been over 675 animal outbreaks reported that resulted in over 2000 animal infections including domestic and wild animals. As the role of animal infections in the transmission, pathogenesis, and evolution of SARS-CoV-2 is still unfolding, accurate and reliable animal diagnostic tests are critical to aid in managing both human and animal health. This review highlights key animal samples and the three main diagnostic approaches used for animal testing: PCR, serology, and Next Generation Sequencing. Diagnostic results help inform (often difficult) clinical decision-making, but also possible ways to mitigate spread among pets, food supplies, or wildlife. A One Health approach has been key to monitoring the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, as consistent human-animal interactions can lead to novel variants. Having multiple animal diagnostic tests for SARS-CoV-2 available is critical to ensure human, animal, and environmental health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of piperacillin/tazobactam with vancomycin as empirical antimicrobial therapy (EAT) for prosthetic joint infection (PJI) has been associated with an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI), leading us to propose cefepime as an alternative since 2017 in our reference centre. OBJECTIVES To compare microbiological efficacy and tolerance of these two EAT strategies. METHODS All adult patients with PJI empirically treated with vancomycin+cefepime (n = 89) were enrolled in a prospective observational study and matched with vancomycin+piperacillin/tazobactam-treated historical controls (n = 89) according to a propensity score including age, baseline renal function and concomitant use of other nephrotoxic agents. The two groups were compared using Kaplan-Meier curve analysis, and non-parametric tests regarding the proportion of efficacious empirical regimen and the incidence of empirical therapy-related adverse events (AE). RESULTS Among 146 (82.0%) documented infections, the EAT was considered efficacious in 77 (98.7%) and 65 (98.5%) of the piperacillin/tazobactam- and cefepime-treated patients, respectively (P = 1.000). The rate of AE, particularly AKI, was significantly higher in the vancomycin+piperacillin/tazobactam group [n = 27 (30.3%) for all AE and 23 (25.8%) for AKI] compared with the vancomycin+cefepime [n = 13 (14.6%) and 6 (6.7%)] group (P = 0.019 and <0.001, respectively), leading to premature EAT discontinuation in 20 (22.5%) and 5 (5.6%) patients (P = 0.002). The two groups were not significantly different regarding their comorbidities, and AKI incidence was not related to vancomycin plasma overexposure. CONCLUSIONS Based on the susceptibility profile of bacterial isolates from included patients, microbiological efficacy of both strategies was expected to be similar, but vancomycin + cefepime was associated with a significantly lower incidence of AKI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Direct-Acting Antivirals (DAAs) opened a new era in HCV treatment. We report the impact of HCV treatment in French HIV-HCV coinfected patients. METHODS All HIV-HCV patients from the Dat'AIDS cohort followed between 2012 and 2015 were included. HCV status was defined yearly as naive, spontaneous cure, sustained virological response (SVR12), failure or reinfection. RESULTS Among 32,945 HIV-infected patients, 15.2% were positive for anti-HCV antibodies. From 2012 to 2015, HCV incidence rate increased from 0.35%PY to 0.69%PY in MSM, while median incidence was 0.08%PY in other patients. Median reinfection rate was 2.56%PY in MSM and 0.22%PY in other patients. HCV treatment initiation rate rose from 8.2% in 2012 to 29.6% (48.0% in pre-treated patients vs 22.6% in naïve patients). SVR12 rate increased from 68.7% to 95.2%. By the end of 2015, 62.7% of the patients were cured either spontaneously or following SVR. CONCLUSIONS HCV treatment dramatically increased in HIV-HCV patients in France from 2012 to 2015 resulting in HCV cure in nearly two-thirds of the patients in this cohort. Combined with a declining HCV prevalence, the prevalence of active HCV infection among HIV patients will drastically decrease in the forthcoming years.

Abstract
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) is an emerging concern in communities with a low TB prevalence and a high standard of public health. Twenty-three consecutive adult MDR TB patients who were treated at our institution between 2007 and 2013 were reviewed for demographic characteristics and anti-TB treatment management, which included surgical procedures and long-term patient follow-up. This report of our experience emphasizes the need for an individualized approach as MDR TB brings mycobacterial disease management to a higher level of expertise, and for a balance to be found between international current guidelines and patient-tailored treatment strategies.

Abstract
SETTING A tertiary university medical centre in northern Israel. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical significance of non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) isolated from pulmonary specimens. DESIGN Clinical and microbiological data were collected from patient files. Cases were classified as definite, probable and possible NTM. RESULTS Between 2004 and 2010, 215 cases with respiratory isolates of NTM were identified. Mycobacterium xenopi was the most common species (n = 84, 39.1%), followed by M. simiae (n = 52, 24.2%). A total of 170 (79.1%) cases were classified as possible and 24 (11.2%) as probable NTM. Only 21 (9.8%) cases were considered definite NTM, the majority of which were M. kansasii and M. avium complex. CONCLUSIONS M. xenopi and M. simiae are the most prevalent species of NTM isolated from respiratory samples in northern Israel. However, most of these isolates represent colonisation. Of the relatively small number of clinically significant isolates, M. kansasii and M. avium complex were the most common.

Abstract
e19529 Background: Radioimmunotherapy is a therapeutic option for relapsed or refractory indolent, follicular and transformed non Hodgkin's lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma. Although prolongued myelotoxicity has been described with use of iodine I 131 tositumomab (TOSI) and yttrium 90 ibritumomab tiuxetan (IBRI), analysis of toxicity according to patients’ age at therapy still lacks. Methods: Utilizing the Rush University Medical Center database 61 subjects who received RIT between November/2003 and June/2008, either with TOSI or IBRI were divided in 2 groups according to age at time of therapy. Group 1 included patients between 33 and 60 (51.8±6.5) years of age (N=29) and group 2 included patients 61 years old or older (70.1±7.8) (N=32). Parameters compared between groups were: Time to nadir of lowest absolute neutrophil count (ANC), time to recovery ANC above 1000/mcL, time to nadir of lowest hemoglobin levels, time to recovery to hemoglobin levels above 8g/dL, time to lowest platelet count and time to recovery to platelet count above 100,000/mcL. Incidence o myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) was also compared between groups. Groups characteristics such as sex, type of RIT, presence of disease in bone marrow, FLIPI/IPI and use of G-CSF were noted. Results: There was no significant statistical difference between groups in time (number of days) to achieve nadir of ANC (group 1 85.3±208; group 2 50.3±19.9), nadir of hemoglobin levels (group 1 106±60.6; group 2 84±57.0) and time to nadir of platelet level (group 1 53.5±70.7; group 2 41.8±9.6). There was no statistical significant difference between groups in duration of cytopenias, except for time for platelet recovery which was significant longer in group 2 using the Pearson Correlation analysis. (p=0.008). (Days for platelets recovery to levels above 100,000/mcL group 1 29.4±27.7; group 2 108.8 ±207.3). One patient in group 1 and three patients on group 2 were diagnosed with MDS but were also treated with different chemotherapy regimens. Conclusions: RIT should be considered a safe therapeutic modality in patients with refractory or relapsed indolent, follicular, NHL, transformed and Mantle Cell lymphoma regardless of age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The authors had for aim to evaluate the clinical and biological evolution in HIV-infected patients with viraemia lower than 30,000 copies/mL having decided to interrupt their treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for more than 3 months followed by treatment interruption longer than 1 month were included in a retrospective analysis. RESULTS Forty-six patients having stopped treatment between November 1999 and July 2003 were included. The median duration of treatment interruption was 9.5 months. During the study, no clinical event occurred for 21 patients, and at least 1 clinical event occurred for the 25 others. The median CD4(+) cell counts (CD4) before and at the end of treatment interruption were 597/mm(3) and 437/mm(3), respectively (P<0.001). The median values of viral load before and at the end of treatment interruption were <50 and 23749 copies/mL, respectively (P<0.001). Among the 26 patients having started a new HAART, pre-treatment interruption and post-new HAART median CD4 (with a median delay after HAART of 9.7 months) were 548 and 432.5/mm(3) (P=0.02). Pre-treatment interruption and post-new HAART median viral load were 131.5 and 94.5 copies/mL (NS). CONCLUSIONS Treatment interruption must be used with caution in spite of the absence of virological impact, because CD4 cell count after new HAART is lower than CD4 preceding treatment interruption. Treatment interruption is contraindicated for patients with AIDS. Physicians must carefully follow other patients who decide on a treatment interruption.

Abstract
The problem of detecting specific features of microscopic dynamics in the macroscopic behavior of a many-degrees-of-freedom system is investigated by analyzing the position and momentum time series of a heavy impurity embedded in a chain of nearest-neighbor anharmonic Fermi-Pasta-Ulam oscillators. Results obtained in a previous work [M. Romero-Bastida, Phys. Rev. E 69, 056204 (2004)] suggest that the impurity does not contribute significantly to the dynamics of the chain and can be considered as a probe for the dynamics of the system to which the impurity is coupled. The (r,tau) entropy, which measures the amount of information generated by unit time at different scales tau of time and r of the observable, is numerically computed by methods of nonlinear time-series analysis using the position and momentum signals of the heavy impurity for various values of the energy density epsilon (energy per degree of freedom) of the system and some values of the impurity mass M. Results obtained from these two time series are compared and discussed.

Abstract
Extensive atomic force and electron microscopy reveal a new, generic DNA-colloid complex with a fixed number of DNA bases per colloid. The fiber shaped complex is stable in the presence of excess colloids in the solution. As more DNA is added to the solution and the ratio between colloids and DNA approaches the fiber's stoichiometry, the system undergoes a sharp coagulation transition. The system is restabilized at even higher DNA concentrations through localization of small colloid clusters on extensive DNA networks.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Polyarteritis nodosa is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis that may become serious, even with no usual poor prognosis factors. EXEGESIS We report two cases of polyarteritis nodosa with negative histology, starting only with an extensive necrosis of the extremities. The treatment, associating corticosteroids and, secondarily, immunosuppressors, did not prevent a bilateral half-leg amputation for the two patients. In the first case the disease stabilized, but in the second one, it worsened, leading to death within 2 years. CONCLUSION This clinical aspect of the disease is unusual and should be identified because of its bad prognosis. It might benefit from a treatment from the outset associating corticosteroids and immunosuppressors, even with no usual bad prognosis factors.

Abstract
The problem of relating microscopic chaos to macroscopic behavior in a many-degrees-of-freedom system is numerically investigated by analyzing statistical properties associated to the position and momentum of a heavy impurity embedded in a chain of nearest-neighbor anharmonic Fermi-Pasta-Ulam oscillators. For this model we have found that the behavior of the relaxation time of the momentum autocorrelation function of the impurity is different depending on the dynamical regime (either regular or chaotic) of the lattice.
