Abstract
Despite the increasing availability of genomic data and enhanced data analysis procedures, predicting the severity of associated diseases remains elusive in the absence of clinical descriptors. To address this challenge, we have focused on the KV7.2 voltage-gated potassium channel gene (KCNQ2), known for its link to developmental delays and various epilepsies, including self-limited benign familial neonatal epilepsy and epileptic encephalopathy. Genome-wide tools often exhibit a tendency to overestimate deleterious mutations, frequently overlooking tolerated variants, and lack the capacity to discriminate variant severity. This study introduces a novel approach by evaluating multiple machine learning (ML) protocols and descriptors. The combination of genomic information with a novel Variant Frequency Index (VFI) builds a robust foundation for constructing reliable gene-specific ML models. The ensemble model, MLe-KCNQ2, formed through logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest and gradient boosting algorithms, achieves specificity and sensitivity values surpassing 0.95 (AUC-ROC > 0.98). The ensemble MLe-KCNQ2 model also categorizes pathogenic mutations as benign or severe, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC) above 0.67. This study not only presents a transferable methodology for accurately classifying KCNQ2 missense variants, but also provides valuable insights for clinical counseling and aids in the determination of variant severity. The research context emphasizes the necessity of precise variant classification, especially for genes like KCNQ2, contributing to the broader understanding of gene-specific challenges in the field of genomic research. The MLe-KCNQ2 model stands as a promising tool for enhancing clinical decision making and prognosis in the realm of KCNQ2-related pathologies.

Abstract
Hypothyroidism is the most frequent endocrine pathology. Although clinical or overt hypothyroidism has been traditionally associated to low T3 / T4 and high thyrotropin (TSH) circulating levels, other forms exist such as subclinical hypothyroidism, characterized by normal blood T3 / T4 and high TSH. In its different forms is estimated to affect approximately 10% of the population, especially women, in a 5:1 ratio with respect to men. Among its consequences are alterations in cardiac electrical activity, especially in the repolarization phase, which is accompanied by an increased susceptibility to cardiac arrhythmias. Although these alterations have traditionally been attributed to thyroid hormone deficiency, recent studies, both clinical trials and experimental models, demonstrate a fundamental role of TSH in cardiac electrical remodeling. Thus, both metabolic thyroid hormones and TSH regulate cardiac ion channel expression in many and varied ways. This means that the different combinations of hormones that predominate in different types of hypothyroidism (overt, subclinic, primary, central) can generate different forms of cardiac electrical remodeling. These new findings are raising the relevant question of whether serum TSH reference ranges should be redefined.

Abstract
PURPOSE Kv1.3 channel regulates the activity of lymphocytes, macrophages, or adipose tissue and its blockade reduces inflammatory cytokine secretion and improves insulin sensitivity in animals with metabolic syndrome and in genetically obese mice. Thus, Kv1.3 blockade could be a strategy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Elevated circulating levels of TNFα and IL-1b mediate the higher susceptibility to cardiac arrhythmia in type 2 diabetic rats. We hypothesized that Kv1.3 channel blockade with the psoralen PAP1 could have immunomodulatory properties that prevent QTc prolongation and reduce the risk of arrhythmia in type 2 diabetic rats. METHODS Type 2 diabetes was induced to Sprague-Dawley rats by high-fat diet and streptozotocin injection. Diabetic animals were untreated, treated with metformin, or treated with PAP1 for 4 weeks. Plasma glucose, insulin, cholesterol, triglycerides, and cytokine levels were measured using commercial kits. ECG were recorded weekly, and an arrhythmia-inducing protocol was performed at the end of the experimental period. Action potentials were recorded in isolated ventricular cardiomyocytes. RESULTS In diabetic animals, PAP1 normalized glycaemia, insulin resistance, adiposity, and lipid profile. In addition, PAP1 prevented the diabetes-induced repolarization defects through reducing the secretion of the inflammatory cytokines IL-10, IL-12p70, GM-CSF, IFNγ, and TNFα. Moreover, compared to diabetic untreated and metformin-treated animals, those treated with PAP1 had the lowest risk of developing the life-threatening arrhythmia Torsade de Pointes under cardiac challenge. CONCLUSION Kv1.3 inhibition improves diabetes and diabetes-associated low-grade inflammation and cardiac electrical remodeling, resulting in more protection against cardiac arrhythmia compared to metformin.

Abstract
Direct cardiac reprogramming has emerged as an interesting approach for the treatment and regeneration of damaged hearts through the direct conversion of fibroblasts into cardiomyocytes or cardiovascular progenitors. However, in studies with human cells, the lack of reporter fibroblasts has hindered the screening of factors and consequently, the development of robust direct cardiac reprogramming protocols.In this study, we have generated functional human NKX2.5GFP reporter cardiac fibroblasts. We first established a new NKX2.5GFP reporter human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line using a CRISPR-Cas9-based knock-in approach in order to preserve function which could alter the biology of the cells. The reporter was found to faithfully track NKX2.5 expressing cells in differentiated NKX2.5GFP hiPSC and the potential of NKX2.5-GFP + cells to give rise to the expected cardiac lineages, including functional ventricular- and atrial-like cardiomyocytes, was demonstrated. Then NKX2.5GFP cardiac fibroblasts were obtained through directed differentiation, and these showed typical fibroblast-like morphology, a specific marker expression profile and, more importantly, functionality similar to patient-derived cardiac fibroblasts. The advantage of using this approach is that it offers an unlimited supply of cellular models for research in cardiac reprogramming, and since NKX2.5 is expressed not only in cardiomyocytes but also in cardiovascular precursors, the detection of both induced cell types would be possible. These reporter lines will be useful tools for human direct cardiac reprogramming research and progress in this field.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia in the absence of treatment. Among the diabetes-associated complications, cardiovascular disease is the major cause of mortality and morbidity in diabetic patients. Diabetes causes a complex myocardial dysfunction, referred as diabetic cardiomyopathy, which even in the absence of other cardiac risk factors results in abnormal diastolic and systolic function. Besides mechanical abnormalities, altered electrical function is another major feature of the diabetic myocardium. Both type 1 and type 2 diabetic patients often show cardiac electrical remodeling, mainly a prolonged ventricular repolarization visible in the electrocardiogram as a lengthening of the QT interval duration. The underlying mechanisms at the cellular level involve alterations on the expression and activity of several cardiac ion channels and their associated regulatory proteins. Consequent changes in sodium, calcium and potassium currents collectively lead to a delay in repolarization that can increase the risk of developing life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. QT duration correlates strongly with the risk of developing torsade de pointes, a form of ventricular tachycardia that can degenerate into ventricular fibrillation. Therefore, QT prolongation is a qualitative marker of proarrhythmic risk, and analysis of ventricular repolarization is therefore required for the approval of new drugs. To that end, the Thorough QT/QTc analysis evaluates QT interval prolongation to assess potential proarrhythmic effects. In addition, since diabetic patients have a higher risk to die from cardiovascular causes than individuals without diabetes, cardiovascular safety of the new antidiabetic drugs must be carefully evaluated in type 2 diabetic patients. These cardiovascular outcome trials reveal that some glucose-lowering drugs actually reduce cardiovascular risk. The mechanism of cardioprotection might involve a reduction of the risk of developing arrhythmia.

Abstract
The electrophysiological behavior of the zebrafish heart is very similar to that of the human heart. In fact, most of the genes that codify the channels and regulatory proteins required for human cardiac function have their orthologs in the zebrafish. The high fecundity, small size, and easy handling make the zebrafish embryos/larvae an interesting candidate to perform whole animal experiments within a plate, offering a reliable and low-cost alternative to replace rodents and larger mammals for the study of cardiac physiology and pathology. The employment of zebrafish embryos/larvae has widened from basic science to industry, being of particular interest for pharmacology studies, since the zebrafish embryo/larva is able to recapitulate a complete and integrated view of cardiac physiology, missed in cell culture. As in the human heart, IKr is the dominant repolarizing current and it is functional as early as 48 h post fertilization. Finally, genome editing techniques such as CRISPR/Cas9 facilitate the humanization of zebrafish embryos/larvae. These techniques allow one to replace zebrafish genes by their human orthologs, making humanized zebrafish embryos/larvae the most promising in vitro model, since it allows the recreation of human-organ-like environment, which is especially necessary in cardiac studies due to the implication of dynamic factors, electrical communication, and the paracrine signals in cardiac function.

Abstract
An accurate knowledge of the epidemiology of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is key for selecting appropriate antimicrobial treatments. Very few etiological studies assessed the appropriateness of empiric guideline recommendations at a multinational level. This study aims at the following: (i) describing the bacterial etiologic distribution of CAP and (ii) assessing the appropriateness of the empirical treatment recommendations by clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for CAP in light of the bacterial pathogens diagnosed as causative agents of CAP. Secondary analysis of the GLIMP, a point-prevalence international study which enrolled adults hospitalized with CAP in 2015. The analysis was limited to immunocompetent patients tested for bacterial CAP agents within 24 h of admission. The CAP CPGs evaluated included the following: the 2007 and 2019 American Thoracic Society/Infectious Diseases Society of America (ATS/IDSA), the European Respiratory Society (ERS), and selected country-specific CPGs. Among 2564 patients enrolled, 35.3% had an identifiable pathogen. Streptococcus pneumoniae (8.2%) was the most frequently identified pathogen, followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (4.1%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (3.4%). CPGs appropriately recommend covering more than 90% of all the potential pathogens causing CAP, with the exception of patients enrolled from Germany, Pakistan, and Croatia. The 2019 ATS/IDSA CPGs appropriately recommend covering 93.6% of the cases compared with 90.3% of the ERS CPGs (p < 0.01). S. pneumoniae remains the most common pathogen in patients hospitalized with CAP. Multinational CPG recommendations for patients with CAP seem to appropriately cover the most common pathogens and should be strongly encouraged for the management of CAP patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS To test whether the physiological regulation of the cardiac Kv4 channels by the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is restricted to lipid rafts and whether the interactions observed in rat cardiomyocytes also occur in the human ventricle. METHODS Ventricular myocytes were freshly isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats. Ito was recorded by the whole-cell Patch-Clamp technique. Membrane rafts were isolated by centrifugation in a discontinuous sucrose density gradient. The presence of the proteins of interest was analysed by western blot. Immunogold staining and electron microscopy of heart vibrosections was performed to localize Kv4.2/Kv4.3 and CaMKII proteins. Protein-protein interactions were determined by co-immunoprecipitation experiments in rat and human ventricular mycoytes. RESULTS Patch-Clamp recordings in control conditions and after lipid raft or caveolae disruption show that the CaMKII-Kv4 channel complex must associate in non-caveolar lipid rafts to be functional. Separation in density gradients, co-immunoprecipitation and electron microscopy show that there are two Kv4 channel populations: one located in caveolae, that is CaMKII independent, and another one located in planar membrane rafts, which is bound to CaMKII. CONCLUSION CaMKII regulates only the Kv4 channel population located in non-caveolar lipid rafts. Thus, the regulation of cardiac Kv4 channels in rat and human ventricle depends on their subcellular localization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE) secondary to transient risk factors may develop VTE recurrences after discontinuing anticoagulation. Identifying at-risk patients could help to guide the duration of therapy. METHODS We used the RIETE database to assess the prognostic value of d-dimer testing after discontinuing anticoagulation to identify patients at increased risk for recurrences. Transient risk factors were classified as major (postoperative) or minor (pregnancy, oestrogen use, immobilization or recent travel). RESULTS In December 2018, 1655 VTE patients with transient risk factors (major 460, minor 1195) underwent d-dimer measurements after discontinuing anticoagulation. Amongst patients with major risk factors, the recurrence rate was 5.74 (95% CI: 3.19-9.57) events per 100 patient-years in those with raised d-dimer levels and 2.68 (95% CI: 1.45-4.56) in those with normal levels. Amongst patients with minor risk factors, the rates were 7.79 (95% CI: 5.71-10.4) and 3.34 (95% CI: 2.39-4.53), respectively. Patients with major risk factors and raised d-dimer levels (n = 171) had a nonsignificantly higher rate of recurrences (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.14; 95% CI: 0.96-4.79) than those with normal levels. Patients with minor risk factors and raised d-dimer levels (n = 382) had a higher rate of recurrences (HR: 2.34; 95% CI: 1.51-3.63) than those with normal levels. On multivariate analysis, raised d-dimers (HR: 1.74; 95% CI: 1.09-2.77) were associated with an increased risk for recurrences in patients with minor risk factors, not in those with major risk factors. CONCLUSIONS Patients with raised d-dimer levels after discontinuing anticoagulant therapy for VTE provoked by a minor transient risk factor were at an increased risk for recurrences.

Abstract
Of the pet rabbits presented at one private practice between August 2011 and August 2016 (n=1369), 5·6% presented with a traumatic orthopaedic injury. Of these, 7·8% (n=6) presented with traumatic coxofemoral luxation, the most frequently observed type of luxation. Three cases of non-traumatic coxofemoral luxation in pet rabbits are also discussed. Eight rabbits presented with craniodorsal luxation and one with caudoventral luxation. Five rabbits were initially treated using closed reduction and an Ehmer sling under sedation. Two rabbits responded satisfactorily to closed reduction; their bandages remained in place for 10 and 14 days, and movement was cage-limited for 1 month after bandage placement. The bandage did not prevent re-luxation in three cases. Therefore, two rabbits received iliofemoral nylon sutures, and three rabbits received a femoral neck and head ostectomy. One rabbit was treated directly using open reduction and an iliofemoral nylon suture due to fractures in the same limb. One rabbit was presented in shock, coxofemoral luxation was noticed as an incidental finding and euthanasia was elected by the owner. In conclusion, of the three rabbits treated via femoral neck and head ostectomy one rabbit had an unsatisfactory outcome and two rabbits have non-assessable outcomes. The three rabbits treated with iliofemoral sutures showed satisfactory long-term outcomes and the two rabbits treated with closed reduction and an Ehmer sling showed satisfactory medium and long-term outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OnabotulinumtoxinA is a treatment specifically approved for the prophylaxis of chronic migraine in adults. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of OnabotulinumtoxinA in chronic migraine after 1 year of treatment in a real-life setting and to identify clinical predictors of outcome. METHODS We designed a prospective multicentre study performed in 13 hospitals in Spain. Patients underwent a complete medical history and examination. They were treated with OnabotulinumtoxinA every 12 weeks for 1 year. Data about outcome, adverse events, abortive medication use, emergency room use and disability were collected at 3 and 12 months. RESULTS A total of 725 subjects completed the study. At 12 months, 79.3% showed >50% reduction in number of headaches per month and 94.9% reported no adverse events. Unilaterality of pain, fewer days of disability per month and milder headache at baseline were correlated with good outcome. Duration of disease <12 months increased the chances of response to treatment with OnabotulinumtoxinA (odds ratio, 1.470; 95% confidence interval, 1.123-2.174; P = 0.045). CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed the effectiveness of treatment with OnabotulinumtoxinA after 1 year of treatment. The chances of a good outcome may be increased by starting treatment in the first 12 months after chronic migraine diagnosis.

Abstract
This study was based on the assumption that steroid hormones present in the female genital tract may have a rapid effect on ram spermatozoa by interaction with specific surface receptors. We demonstrate the presence of progesterone (PR) and estrogen (ER) receptors in ram spermatozoa, their localization changes duringin vitrocapacitation and the actions of progesterone (P4) and 17β-estradiol (E2) on ram sperm functionality. Immunolocalization assays revealed the presence of PR mainly at the equatorial region of ram spermatozoa. Western blot analyses showed three bands in ram sperm protein extracts of 40–45 kDa, compatible with those reported for PR in the human sperm membrane, and both classical estrogen receptors (66 kDa, ERα and 55 kDa, ERβ). ERα was located in the postacrosomal region of all the spermatozoa and ERβ on the apical region of 63.7% of the cells. The presence of ERβ was correlated with the percentage of non-capacitated spermatozoa evaluated by chlortetracycline staining (R = 0.848,P < 0.001). This significantly decreased afterin vitrocapacitation and nearly disappeared when acrosome reaction was induced. The addition of P4 and E2 beforein vitrocapacitation resulted in a higher (P < 0.001) acrosome-reacted sperm rate compared with the control (13.0%), noticeably greater after 3 h and when added to a high-cAMP medium (37.3% and 47.0% with E2 and P4, respectively). In conclusion, the results of this study demonstrate for the first time that ovine spermatozoa have progesterone and estrogen receptors and that both steroid hormones are related with the induction of the acrosome reaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The rapid delayed rectifier K+ current (IKr), carried by the hERG protein, is one of the main repolarising currents in the human heart and a reduction of this current increases the risk of ventricular fibrillation. α1-adrenoceptors (α1-AR) activation reduces IKr but, despite the clear relationship between an increase in the sympathetic tone and arrhythmias, the mechanisms underlying the α1-AR regulation of the hERG channel are controversial. Thus, we aimed to investigate the mechanisms by which α1-AR stimulation regulates IKr. METHODS α1-adrenoceptors, hERG channels, auxiliary subunits minK and MIRP1, the non PIP2-interacting mutant D-hERG (with a deletion of the 883-894 amino acids) in the C-terminal and the non PKC-phosphorylable mutant N-terminal truncated-hERG (NTK-hERG) were transfected in HEK293 cells. Cell membranes were extracted by centrifugation and the different proteins were visualized by Western blot. Potassium currents were recorded by the patch-clamp technique. IKr was recorded in isolated feline cardiac myocytes. RESULTS Activation of the α1-AR reduces the amplitude of IhERG and IKr through a positive shift in the activation half voltage, which reduces the channel availability at physiological membrane potentials. The intracellular pathway connecting the α1-AR to the hERG channel in HEK293 cells includes activation of the Gαq protein, PLC activation and PIP2 hydrolysis, activation of PKC and direct phosphorylation of the hERG channel N-terminal. The PKC-mediated IKr channel phosphorylation and subsequent IKr reduction after α1-AR stimulation was corroborated in feline cardiac myocytes. CONCLUSIONS These findings clarify the link between sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity and IKr reduction, one of the best characterized causes of torsades de pointes and ventricular fibrillation.

Abstract
Background Staging of mediastinal lymph nodes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is mandatory. The maximum Standard Uptake Value (SUVmax) obtained using F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is the best non-invasive technique available for this evaluation, but its performance varies from center to center. The aim of the present study was to identify FDG-PET predictors of mediastinal malignancy that are able to minimize intercenter variability and improve the selection of subsequent staging procedures. Method A multicenter study of NSCLC patients staged through FDG-PET and endobronchial ultrasonography with needle aspiration (EBUS-NA) was performed using therapeutic surgery with systematic nodal dissection as gold standard. Intercenter variability and predictive power for mediastinal malignancy of different FDG-PET measures were assessed, as well as the role of these measures for selecting additional staging procedures. Results One hundred and twenty-one NSCLC patients, of whom 94 (72%) had ≥1 hypermetabolic spots in the mediastinum, were included in the study. Mean SUVmax of the primary tumor was 12.3 (SD 6.3), and median SUVmax of the highest hypermetabolic spots in the mediastinum was 3.9 (IQR 2.4-7). Variability of FDG-PET measures between hospitals was statistically significant (p = 0.016 and p < 0.001 respectively), but lost significance when SUVmax in the mediastinum was expressed as a ratio or a subtraction from the primary tumor (SUVmax mediastinum/tumor, p = 0.083; and SUVmax mediastinum - tumor, p = 0.428 respectively). SUVmax mediastinum/tumor showed higher accuracy in the ROC analysis (AUC 0.77 CI 0.68-0.85, p < 0.001), and showed predictive power for mediastinal malignancy when using a 0.4 cutoff (OR 6.62, 95%CI 2.98-14.69). Sensitivities and negative predictive values of clinical staging through EBUS-NA attained values ranging between 57% and 92% after FDG-PET, which improved with additional techniques when the tumor had a diameter >3 cm and/or a SUVmax mediastinum/tumor ratio >0.4. Conclusion The SUVmax mediastinum/tumor ratio is a good predictor of regional tumor extension in NSCLC. This measure is not influenced by intercenter variability and has an accuracy of over 70% for the identification of malignancy when using a 0.4 cutoff.

Abstract
We report the first case of spontaneous syndactyly reported in a pet rabbit. Syndactyly only caused an atypical gait in the rabbit. The radiological study revealed bilateral 3rd and 4th metatarsal bones fused in its entire length preserving normal joint surfaces resembling syndactyly type Ia. The cause of this congenital malformation was unknown.

Abstract
AIMS The objective of the current study was to compare two patient assessment strategies using colonoscopy and MRI alternatively as first- and second-line examinations. METHODS Clinical data, endoscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations of 100 patients diagnosed with ileocolonic Crohn's disease (CD) performed within 1 week were blindly reviewed by 4 clinical investigators. Two investigators evaluated MRI followed by colonoscopy for 50 cases and the same examinations in reverse order for another 50 cases; the other 2 investigators evaluated the same cases switching the order of examinations. The assessments included the likelihood of the presence of inflammation, stenosis, fistula and abscess, and therapeutic recommendations. RESULTS Information from the first examination was considered sufficient for management in 80% of cases for MRI and only 34% of cases for colonoscopy (p < 0.001). Adding MRI to the information from colonoscopy changed the clinicians' confidence grade in a higher proportion of patients than adding colonoscopy to information from MRI for the diagnosis of disease activity (10 vs 4%, p = 0.03), stenosis (25 vs 9%, p < 0.001), fistula (31 vs 0%, p < 0.001) and internal abscess (27 vs 0%, p < 0.001). Indications for anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy (51 vs 37%, F = 0.006), and surgery (12 vs 5%, F = 0.019) were more frequent after MRI than after colonoscopy as first examination. As a second examination, MRI led to change in therapy in a higher proportion of patients than colonoscopy (28 vs 8%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In CD, information provided by MRI has a higher impact on patient management than colonoscopy and may be considered as a first-line examination for CD assessment.

Abstract
Melatonin is a ubiquitous molecule found in a wide range of fluids, one of them being ram seminal plasma, in which it can reach higher concentrations than those found in blood, suggesting an extrapineal secretion by the reproductive tract. In order to identify the source of the melatonin found in ram seminal plasma, we first tried to determine whether the melatonin levels were maintained during the day. For this purpose, melatonin concentrations were measured in seminal plasma obtained from first ejaculates of six rams at 6:00 a.m. in total darkness, at 10:00 a.m. and at 14:00 p.m. The melatonin concentration was higher (p < 0.05) in ejaculates collected at 6:00 a.m. than at 10:00 and 14:00. There was no statistical difference between the latter. To further corroborate an extrapineal secretion of melatonin, the presence of the two key enzymes involved in melatonin synthesis, arylalkylamine-N-acetyltransferase (AANAT) and N-acetylserotonin-O-methyltransferase (ASMT) was analyzed by RT-PCR, q-PCR and Western-blot in ram testes, epididymis, and accessory glands. The RT-PCR showed the presence of the m-RNA codifying both AANAT and ASTM in all the tissues under study, but the q-PCR and Western-blot revealed that gene expression of these enzymes was significantly higher in the testis (p < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry confirmed the presence of AANAT and ASMT in the testis and revealed that they were found in the Leydig cells, spermatocytes, and spermatids. Also, measurable levels of melatonin were found in testicular tissue and the tail of the epididymis. In conclusion, our study indicates that the testes are one of the likely sources of the high levels of melatonin found in ram seminal plasma, at least during the day.

Abstract
<p>Uterine capacity has been proposed as an indirect way to increase litter size. The aim of this work is to study the effect of a divergent selection for uterine capacity (UC) on reproductive traits at 30 h post mating in unilaterally ovariectomized (ULO) females. A total of 62 ULO females from the high line (selected to increase UC) and 39 ULO females from the low line (selected to decrease UC) were used. Ovulation rate was estimated as the number of corpora haemorrhagica and early embryonic survival was estimated as the ratio between number of embryos and ovulation rate. No differences in ovulation rate and early embryonic survival at 30 h post mating were found between high and low lines. Selection for UC did not change the embryonic stage of development either, the majority of embryos being at 4-cell stage. Additionally, the embryos were evaluated according to morphological criteria and more than 95% of the embryos were evaluated as good or fair quality. No differences in embryonic morphological criteria between high and low lines were found either. Thus, selection for UC did not modify the early embryonic survival and development in ULO females at 30 h post mating.</p>

Abstract
BACKGROUND The electrocardiogram of hypothyroid patients shows a series of abnormalities of cardiac repolarization due to a reduction of some repolarizing K(+) currents and an increase of the L-type calcium current. Experimental and clinical works call into question the unique role of T3 and T4 in these mechanisms and correlate increased serum TSH levels with the repolarization abnormalities in patients with both subclinical and overt hypothyroidism. In this context, the aim of the present study was to investigate the direct effects of TSH upon cardiac electrical properties. METHODS The action potential recording and the ion channel subunits mRNA expression were obtained from left ventricle of adult rats. Additionally, the repolarizing K(+) currents and the L-type Ca(2+) current (ICa-L) were recorded in isolated rat adult ventricular myocytes by the patch-clamp technique. RESULTS 24h exposure to TSH lengthened the action potential and slightly depolarized the resting membrane potential. TSH- receptor activation causes a reduction of the amplitude of Ito and IK1 currents caused by a reduction in channels expression. However, TSH had no effect on ICa-L, IK or IKur. CONCLUSION These results support the idea that some of the electrical disturbances seen in hypothyroid hearts, such as the Ito and IK1 current reduction, could be caused not by low T3 but by the elevation of circulating TSH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To study the characteristics and outcomes of patients in the ICU with severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP) over a 15-year surveillance period. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of episodes of SCAP, and assessed the epidemiology, etiology, treatment and outcomes of patients admitted to the ICU, comparing three periods (1999-2003, 2004-2008 and 2009-2013). RESULTS A total of 458 patients were diagnosed with SCAP. The overall cumulative incidence was 37.4 episodes/1000 admissions, with a progressive increase over the three periods (P<0.001). Patients fulfilling the two major IDSA/ATS criteria at admission increased from 64.2% in the first period to 82.5% in the last period (P=0.005). Streptococcus pneumoniae was the prevalent pathogen. The incidence of bacteremia was 23.1%, and a progressive significant reduction in overall incidence was observed over the three periods (P=0.02). Globally, 91% of the patients received appropriate empiric antibiotic treatment, increasing from 78.3% in the first period to 97.7% in the last period (P<0.001). Combination antibiotic therapy (betalactam+macrolide or fluoroquinolone) increased significantly from the first period (61%) to the last period (81.3%) (P<0.001). Global ICU mortality was 25.1%, and decreased over the three periods (P=0.001). CONCLUSIONS Despite a progressively higher incidence and severity of SCAP in our ICU, crude ICU mortality decreased by 18%. The increased use of combined antibiotic therapy and the decreasing rates of bacteremia were associated to improved patient prognosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Severe endoscopic lesions (SEL) in patients with colonic Crohn's disease (CD) have been linked to higher risk of colectomy. The aims of this study were to reassess the predictive value of colonoscopy compared against MRI for requirement of resection surgery in patients with CD and determine the influence of current therapeutic options. DESIGN In this single-centre, observational, prospective, longitudinal study, patients with an established diagnosis of CD and suspected activity were included. After baseline assessment, including colonoscopy and MRI, patients were followed until resection surgery or the end of study. RESULTS 112 patients were eligible for analysis. Ulcers were present in 94/112 (84%) of patients at colonoscopy (SELs in 51/112 (46%)) and stenosis in 38/112 (34%). MRI identified ulcers in 79/112 (71%) of patients, stenosis in 36/112 (32%) and intra-abdominal fistulae in 20/112 (18%). Surgical resection requirements (29/112 (26%)) were not associated with the presence of SELs at colonoscopy. The presence of stenosis (p<0.001) or intra-abdominal fistulae (p<0.001) at MRI correlated with a higher risk of surgery. In the multivariate analysis, perianal disease (OR 9 (2 to 39), p=0.003), stenosis (OR 3.4 (1 to 11), p=0.04) and fistulae at MRI (OR 10.6 (2 to 46), p=0.002) increased the risk of abdominal resection surgery, while months under immunomodulators (OR 0.94 (0.90 to 0.98), p=0.002) and/or antitumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy (OR 0.97 (0.94 to 1), p=0.04) during follow-up decreased this risk. CONCLUSIONS Perianal disease, stenosis and/or intra-abdominal fistulae at MRI independently predict an increased risk of resection surgery in patients with CD, whereas immunosuppressants and/or anti-TNF therapy reduce such risk. Under current therapeutic strategies, the presence of SELs is not a predictor of resection surgery in patients with CD.

Abstract
The bronchial microbiome in severe COPD during stability and exacerbation in patients chronically colonised by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), has not been defined. Our objective was to determine the characteristics of the bronchial microbiome of severe COPD patients colonised and not colonised by P. aeruginosa and its changes during exacerbation. COPD patients with severe disease and frequent exacerbations were categorised according to chronic colonisation by P. aeruginosa. Sputum samples were obtained in stability and exacerbation, cultured, and analysed by 16S rRNA gene amplification and pyrosequencing. Sixteen patients were included, 5 of them showing chronic colonisation by P. aeruginosa. Pseudomonas genus had significantly higher relative abundance in stable colonised patients (p = 0.019), but no significant differences in biodiversity parameters were found between the two groups (Shannon, 3 (2-4) vs 3 (2-3), p = 0.699; Chao1, 124 (77-159) vs 140 (115-163), p = 0.364). In PA-colonised patients bronchial microbiome changed to a microbiome similar to non-PA-colonised patients during exacerbations. An increase in the relative abundance over 20 % during exacerbation was found for Streptococcus, Pseudomonas, Moraxella, Haemophilus, Neisseria, Achromobacter and Corynebacterium genera, which include recognised potentially pathogenic microorganisms, in 13 patients colonised and not colonised by P. aeruginosa with paired samples. These increases were not identified by culture in 5 out of 13 participants (38.5 %). Stable COPD patients with severe disease and PA-colonised showed a similar biodiversity to non-PA-colonised patients, with a higher relative abundance of Pseudomonas genus in bronchial secretions. Exacerbation in severe COPD patients showed the same microbial pattern, independently of previous colonisation by P. aeruginosa.

Abstract
The heart must constantly adapt its activity to the needs of the body. In any potentially dangerous or physically demanding situation the activated sympathetic nervous system leads a very fast cardiac response. Under these circumstances, α1-adrenergic receptors activate intracellular signaling pathways that finally phosphorylate the caveolae-located subpopulation of Kv4 channels and reduce the transient outward K(+) current (Ito) amplitude. This reduction changes the shape of the cardiac action potential and makes the plateau phase to start at higher voltages. This means that there are more calcium ions entering the myocyte and the result is an increase in the strength of the contraction. However, an excessive reduction of Ito could dangerously prolong action potential duration and this could cause arrhythmias when the heart rate is high. This excessive current reduction does not occur because there is a second population of Ito channels located in non-caveolar membrane rafts that are not accessible for α1-AR mediated regulation. Thus, the location of the components of a given transduction signaling pathway in membrane domains determines the correct and safe behavior of the heart. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Reciprocal influences between cell cytoskeleton and membrane channels, receptors and transporters.

Abstract
AIMS The fast transient outward current, I(to,fast) , is the most extensively studied cardiac K(+) current in diabetic animals. Two hypotheses have been proposed to explain how type-1 diabetes reduces this current in cardiac muscle. The first one is a deficiency in channel expression due to a defect in the trophic effect of insulin. The second one proposes flawed glucose metabolism as the cause of the reduced I(to,fast) . Moreover, little information exists about the effects and possible mechanisms of diabetes on the other repolarizing currents of the human heart: I(to,slow) , I(Kr) , I(Ks) , I(Kur) , I(Kslow) and I(K1) . METHODS We recorded cardiac action potentials and K(+) currents in ventricular cells isolated from control and streptozotocin- or alloxan-induced diabetic mice and rabbits. Channel protein expression was determined by immunofluorescence. RESULTS Diabetes reduces the amplitude of I(to,fast) , I(to,slow) and I(Kslow) , in ventricular myocytes from mouse and rabbit, with no effect on I(ss) , I(Kr) or I(K1) . The absence of changes in the biophysical properties of the currents and the immunofluorescence experiments confirmed the reduction in channel protein synthesis. Six-hour incubation of myocytes with insulin or pyruvate recovered current amplitudes and fluorescent staining. The activation of AMP-K reduced the same K(+) currents in healthy myocytes and prevented the pyruvate-induced current recovery. CONCLUSION Diabetes reduces K(+) current densities in ventricular myocytes due to a defect in channel protein synthesis. Activation of AMP-K secondary to deterioration in the metabolic status of the cells is responsible for K(+) channel reductions.

Abstract
In ventricular myocytes, α1-AR stimulates Gαs proteins and reduces the transient outward K(+) current (I(to)) via a cAMP/PKA-mediated pathway and thus regulates cardiac contraction and excitability. This I(to) reduction is compartmentalized and limited to discrete membrane regions since PKA-dependent phosphorylation of the I(to) channels after α1-AR stimulation requires the integrity of both the sarcoplasmic membrane and the cytoskeleton. The aim of this work was to investigate the mechanisms involved in the compartmentalization of the PKA-dependent modulation of I(to) in response to α1-AR activation. I(to) current recordings were performed by the Patch-Clamp technique. Membrane rafts from isolated ventricular myocytes were extracted by centrifugation in a sucrose density gradient. The different proteins were visualized by western blot and protein-protein interactions determined by coimmunoprecipitation experiments. Localization of I(to) channel in caveolae, particular subtypes of membrane rafts, was achieved by electron microscopy. Patch-Clamp recordings show that a functional supramolecular complex, kept together by the Akinase anchoring protein AKAP100, exist in caveolae in living myocytes. Density gradients and immunoprecipitation experiments show that the components of the α1-AR/I(to) pathway localize in caveolae, forming two different groups of proteins. The K(V)4.2/K(V)4.3 channel forms a supramolecular complex with PKA through AKAP100 and is attached to caveolae by interacting with caveolin-3. On the other hand, α1-AR, Gαs and adenylate cyclase gather in a second group also connected to caveolin-3. Therefore, both groups of preassembled proteins are maintained in close proximity by caveolin-3. A different I(to) channel population localizes in non-caveolar membrane rafts and is not sensitive to α1-adrenergic regulation.

Abstract
For the first time, the exposure of swimmers and workers to haloacetic acids (HAAs) in indoor and outdoor pools was evaluated through the analysis of urine samples. The subjects of this study, 49 volunteers, were male and female workers as well as swimmers (adults and children) who regularly attended an indoor pool (January-June) and an outdoor one (July and August). The results showed that HAAs appeared 20-30 min after exposure and were eliminated within 3 h. After 2 h exposure, urine samples taken from workers contained dichloroacetic (DCAA) and trichloroacetic (TCAA) acids at ~300 and ~120 ng/L levels since HAAs were aerosolized in the indoor ambient, whereas only DCAA was found in some workers' urine samples from the outdoor pool but at ~50 ng/L levels, despite the fact that the outdoor pools generally had somewhat higher levels of HAAs than the indoor pools. After 1 h swimming TCAA, DCAA and MCAA were present at concentrations of ~4400, ~2300, and ~560 ng/L, respectively, in the swimmers' urine in the indoor pool; similar results were obtained from the swimmers in the outdoor pool due to accidental ingestion. Finally, exposure estimates indicate that ingestion is the major route of exposure (~94%), followed by inhalation (~5%) and dermal contribution (~1%).

Abstract
Purpose: To assess the effect of hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection on HIV viral load (VL) and the influence of HIV on the clinical expression of HAV infection. Methods: Single-center study of 23 HIV-positive patients and 41 HIV-negative patients diagnosed with acute HAV infection during 2008-2009. The impact of HAV on HIV VL was defined as an increase of >0.5 log10 during the event, or a detectable VL for those previously suppressed patients. Results: The impact of acute HAV on VL was observed in 37.5% patients. HIV-negative patients were younger (27 vs 34 years, P < .0001), and serum transaminases levels normalized earlier than in the HIV-positive patients (121 vs 178 days, P < .05). Conclusions: Acute HAV infection may have an impact on HIV VL. The interactions between the 2 viruses may not only prolong the HAV viremia, with a potential increase in the transmission of infection, but the impact on HIV may increase the risk of HIV transmission. Studies with higher sample size are needed to confirm our results.
