Summary While deep vein thrombosis (DVT) may be clinically suspected at several time points after major orthopedic surgery, clinical examination is often unreliable, and compression ultrasonography (CUS) screening at discharge is of limited value. A prospective cohort study was carried out in 1,033 consecutive patients who had undergone major hip or knee surgery, aimed to assess the accuracy of a strategy consisting of clinical investigation followed by CUS in the detection of proximal DVT before ...

Abstract Costa Rica is near malaria elimination. This achievement has followed shifts in malaria health policy. Here, we evaluate the impacts that different health policies have had on malaria transmission in Costa Rica from 1913 to 2018. We identified regime shifts and used regression models to measure the impact of different health policies on malaria transmission in Costa Rica using annual case records. We found that vector control and prophylactic treatments were associated with a 50% malaria ...

Rotavirus genome replication and assembly take place in cytoplasmic electron dense inclusions termed viroplasms (VPs). Previous conventional optical microscopy studies observing the intracellular distribution of rotavirus proteins and their organization in VPs have lacked molecular-scale spatial resolution, due to inherent spatial resolution constraints. In this work we employed super-resolution microscopy to reveal the nanometric-scale organization of VPs formed during rotavirus infection, and quantitatively ...

The problem of urban road accidents in Colombia is remarkable and has a significant magnitude. For this reason, a technical study of this important public health scourge is important. The quantitative techniques employed are usually highly aggregated and will not correctly identify the determinant variables of the problem. This paper examines the relationship between urban road accidents and variables related to road infrastructure, environment, traffic volumes and traffic control. Some accident- ...

Newly gathered hydrographic data from the Eastern South Pacific is combined with other high‐quality data (mainly WOCE) to reassess the properties and boundaries of the Eastern South Pacific Intermediate Water (ESPIW); to date the ESPIW has been only poorly described. The ESPIW core is found off central and northern Chile, between the coast and 90°W and 20–38°S. Located at 50–400 m of depth, its temperature varies between 11–13°C, salinity ranges from 34.1–34.3, and its sigma‐t lies between 25.75–26. ...

Satellite‐derived mean sea level anomalies were blended with mean dynamic topography to obtain seasonal climatologies of the eastern South Pacific Ocean's surface circulation with an emphasis on the Humboldt Current. The Humboldt Current is confined to a narrow northward flowing jet‐like stream of about 350 km associated with maximum geostrophic velocities of more than 15 cm s −1 from 35° to 23°S. The current streams closer to the coast in the south (within 500 km), but is found 500 km offshore in ...

We here report the first case of this described in the English literature. The patient was successfully treated with resection of the infected aneurysm, placement of an axillo-bifemoral graft, and prolonged antibiotic treatment (doxycycline and streptomycin). Extended ...

At 03:34 (local time) on 27 February 2010, the world's sixth largest earthquake on record (8.8 Mw) occurred off central Chile, rupturing a segment about 550 km long of the Nazca–South America plate boundary fault parallel to the coastline. This earthquake triggered a destructive tsunami that affected the entire Pacific basin, especially the Chilean coast in an extension of ∼580 km. Here we analyze observations of currents and sea level anomalies caused by the tsunami that were recorded ∼30 km east of ...

Epigenetic regulation of gene expression provides a finely tuned response capacity for cells when undergoing environmental changes. However, in the context of human physiology or disease, any cellular imbalance that modulates homeostasis has the potential to trigger molecular changes that result either in physiological adaptation to a new situation or pathological conditions.
