The use of ECMO (extracolporeal membrane oxygenation) for the treatment of cardiogenic shock secondary to sepsis is still controversial. Studies have shown that ECMO should be considered as a valuable therapeutic option in cases of refractory cardiovascular dysfunction in severe septic patients, although more studies ale needed to consolidate its efficacy. We report the case of two patients, without previous history of cardiopathy, subjected to temporary MCS, with use of ECMO for the treatment of refractory cardiogenic shock secondary to sepsis.展开更多

The Tangara da Serra area (Mato Grosso State, Brazil), which contains tributaries of both Amazon and Upper Paraguay River basins is, therefore, a natural watershed. Thus, in this work, the karyotypes of three species of Astyanax from the Sepotuba River's tributary streams were analyzed by using conventional methods of chromosome analysis. Astyanax marionae presented 2n =48(12m+ 10sm+ 12st+ 14a) and NF (fundamental number) = 82 with evident heterochromatin in several chromosomal regions. Astyanax cf. asuncionensis presented 2 n = 50 (20m + 12sm + 6st + 12a), NF = 94 chromosomes and with evident heterochromatin in few chromosomes and Ag-NOR in one chromosome pair. Astyanax cp. scabripinnis presented 2 n = 50 (12m + 10sm + 10st + 18a), NF = 82 with evident heterochromatin at most of the chromosomes in pericentromeric region and a strongly marked block on a telocentric chromosome pair. The Ag-NORs were observed near the heterochromatic region. The karyotypic differences found, probably occurred by chromosomal rearrangements, resulting in a heterogeneous model of chromosomal evolution who probably involved both Robertsonian chromosomal rearrangements to A. marionae, as not Robertsonian to other Astyanax species. This indicates that although these species share the same hydrographic basin (Upper Paraguay) are isolated in different microbasins and the absence in the gene flow may have allowed the establishment of independent rearrangements in each population.展开更多

To explore the possibility of acetamiprid as larvicide of mosquitoes, lethal and sublethal effects of acetamiprid on the larvae of Culex pipiens pallens were studied by immersion method in the laboratory. The results indicated that the larvae of Culex pipiens pallens were sensitive to acetamiprid. The mortality of larvae peaked at 72 h after treatment. The 1st instar larvae was the most susceptible to acetamiprid, and the 4th instar larvae was the most tolerant to acetamiprid, the LC 50 values were 0.020 mg/L and 0.296 mg/L at 72 h after treatment, respectively. Sublethal concentrations of acetamiprid could delay the development of larvae and decrease the weight of pupa. We suggested that acetamiprid is a safe and effective substitute for the using larvicides of mosquitoes.展开更多

In this work, six perylene bisimide-based red emitters, N'N'-bis(2-decyltetradecyl)-1-([1,1′:3′,1″-terphenyl]-5′-yl)perylene-3,4,9,10-diimide (STPH), N'N'-bis(2-decyltetradecyl)-1,7-bis([1,1′:3′,1″-terphenyl]-5′-yl)perylene-3,4,9,10-diimide (DTPH), N,N'- bis(2-decyltetradecyl)-1-(5′-phenyl-[1,1′:3′,1″-terphenyl]-4-yl)perylene-3,4,9,10-diimide (STRPH), N,N′- bis(2-decyltetradecyl)-1,7-bis(5′-phenyl-[ 1 ,1′:3′,1"-terphenyll-4-yl)perylene-3,4,9,10-diimide (DTRPH), N,N′-bis(2-decyltetradecyl)-1-(4-(2,2-diphenylvinyl)phenyl)perylene-3,4,9,10-diimide/STTPE) and N,N'- bis(2-decyltetradecyl)-1,7-bis(4-(2,2-diphenykvinyl)phenyl)perylene-3,4,9,10-diimide (DTTPE), with the excellent chemical, thermal and photo-chemical stability, are synthesized through the convenient Suzuki coupling reaction, in which, the fluorescent properties can be modified easily from ACQ to AIE by just simply changing the bulky volume of the introduced aromatic substituents. After being fabricated into organic light-emitting diodes, STRPH exhibits the best performance with the maximum luminescence, power efficiency, current efficiency and external quantum efficiency of 1,948 cd m-2, 2.04lm W-1, 5.85 cd A-1, 4.93% at Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.56, 0.34), as the result of the high efficient energy transfer and good energy match achieved in the device.展开更多

The leucogranite comprised biotite granite, two-mica/muscovite granite, tourmaline granite and garnet granite, which have been identified in previous studies, as well as albite granite and granitic pegmatite that were identified in this investigation. Fifteen leucogranite plutons were studied and 12 were found to contain rare-metal bearing minerals such as beryl(the representative of Be mineralization), columbite-group minerals, tapiolite, pyrochlore-microlite, fergusonite, Nb-Ta rutile(the representative of Nb-Ta mineralization), and cassiterite(the representative of Sn mineralization) mainly based on the field trip,microscope observation and microprobe analysis. The preliminary result shows that the Himalayan leucogranite is commonly related to the rare-metal mineralization and warrants future investigation. Further exploration and intensive research work is important in determining the rare-metal resource potential of this area.展开更多
