Abstract:
Self-replicating gene drives that can spread deleterious alleles through animal populations have been promoted as a much needed but controversial ‘silver bullet’ for controlling invasive alien species. Homing-based drives comprise an endonuclease and a guide RNA (gRNA) that are replicated during meiosis via homologous recombination. However, their efficacy for controlling wild populations is threatened by inherent polymorphic resistance and the creation of resistance alleles via non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated DNA repair. We used stochastic individual-based models to identify realistic gene-drive strategies capable of eradicating vertebrate pest populations (mice, rats and rabbits) on islands. One popular strategy, a sex-reversing drive that converts heterozygous females into sterile males, failed to spread and required the ongoing deployment of gene-drive carriers to achieve eradication. Under alternative strategies, multiplexed gRNAs could overcome inherent polymorphic resistance and were required for eradication success even when the probability of NHEJ was low. Strategies causing homozygotic embryonic non-viability or homozygotic female sterility produced high probabilities of eradication and were robust to NHEJ-mediated deletion of the DNA sequence between multiplexed endonuclease recognition sites. The latter two strategies also purged the gene drive when eradication failed, therefore posing lower long-term risk should animals escape beyond target islands. Multiplexing gRNAs will be necessary if this technology is to be useful for insular extirpation attempts; however, precise knowledge of homing rates will be required to design low-risk gene drives with high probabilities of eradication success.

ABSTRACT Chronic Bartonella quintana bacteremia is known to occur in homeless people exposed to lice. We present here the results of an open randomized trial performed to evaluate the efficacy of doxycycline in combination with gentamicin in the eradication of B. quintana bacteremia. From 1 January 2001 to 1 April 2002, homeless people with blood cultures positive for B. quintana were randomized to receive either no treatment (untreated controls) or a combination of gentamicin (3 mg/kg of body weight/day intravenously for 14 days) and doxycycline (200 mg/day orally for 28 days). Patients were evaluated from the results of blood cultures performed between day 28 (the end of treatment) and day 90 postinclusion. Intention-to-treat analysis of 20 included patients showed eradication of bacteremia in 7 out of 9 treated patients versus 2 out of 11 untreated controls (P = 0.01). In the per-protocol analysis, eradication was obtained for 7 out of 7 treated patients versus 2 out of 9 untreated controls (P = 0.003). This study demonstrates the efficiency of the combination of doxycycline and gentamicin in eradicating B. quintana bacteremia.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT This was a double-blind, multicenter study in which 410 adults (≥18 years of age) with uncomplicated skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) were randomized to receive either 400 mg of gatifloxacin orally once daily or 500 mg of levofloxacin orally once daily for 7 to 10 days. The study protocol called for four assessments—before and during treatment, at the end of treatment, and posttreatment. Efficacy evaluations included clinical response and bacterial eradication rates. Of 407 treated patients, 202 (108 women, 94 men) received gatifloxacin and 205 (111 women, 94 men) received levofloxacin. For clinically evaluable patients, the cure rates were 91% for gatifloxacin and 84% for levofloxacin (95% confidence interval [CI] for the difference, −2.0 to 15.2%). Clinical cure rates for microbiologically evaluable patients were 93% for gatifloxacin and 88% for levofloxacin (95% CI for the difference, −6.5 to 16.8%). The bacterial eradication rate was 92% for each group, with gatifloxacin eradicating 93% of the methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus isolates and levofloxacin eradicating 91% of them. Both drugs were well tolerated. Most of the adverse events were mild to moderate, and nausea was the most common adverse event in each treatment arm. Once-daily oral gatifloxacin (400 mg) is clinically efficacious and well tolerated compared with once-daily levofloxacin (500 mg) for the treatment of patients with uncomplicated SSTIs.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND Considering the importance of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication, this clinical trial was designed to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of levofloxacin-based, sequential therapy in comparison with quadruple therapy for eradicating H. pylori. METHODS Overall 156 patients with dyspepsia and H. pylori infection were included in this study and were randomly allocated to either 10-day sequential therapy group (group A) to receive pantoprazole (40 mg twice daily), amoxicillin (1 gr twice daily), levofloxacin (500 mg twice daily), and tinidazole (500 mg twice daily) (PALT) or 14-day quadruple therapy group (group B) to receive pantoprazole, clarithromycin, bismuth subcitrate, and amoxicillin (PABC). At the end of the study the eradication rate in each group was assessed by urea breath test (UBT). RESULTS Age range of the participants was 18-65 years (average 36.9 years) and 50% of them (78 patients) were men. 78 patients were allocated to group A and 78 patients to groupe B. After antibiotic therapy, all the patients received acid suppression therapy with Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) for 4 weeks and then the eradication rate was confirmed by UBT (Heli FAN plus 13C, Germany). Before performing UBT, all the participants were requested to halt consumption of PPI for at least 1 week. During the treatment there was not any major complication but in group A (sequential therapy), two patients complained of minor complications including musculoskeletal pain. None of the patients in group B had any complaint or side effect. The rate of H. pylori eradication in group A was 78.2% (61 patients) while this rate in group B was 83.3% (65 patients) with no significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.42). In subgroup analysis, the rate of eradication among men in group A and B were 76.9% and 89.7%, respectively (p = 0.22) while the eradication rate among women were 79.4% and 76.9%, respectively (p = 1.00). CONCLUSION It seems that levofloxacin base sequential therapy does not have any advantage in comparison with quadruple regimen and until finding any more effective short course therapy for H. Pylori eradication; we encourage quadruple regimen to be used as the first line therapy.

Abstract:
Dracunculiasis, commonly known as guinea worm disease, is a nematode infection transmitted to humans exclusively via contaminated drinking water. The disease prevails in the most deprived areas of the world. No vaccine or medicine is available against the disease: eradication is being achieved by implementing preventive measures. These include behavioural change in patients and communities—such as self-reporting suspected cases to health workers or volunteers, filtering drinking water and accessing water from improved sources and preventing infected individuals from wading or swimming in drinking-water sources—supplemented by active surveillance and case containment, vector control and provision of improved water sources. Efforts to eradicate dracunculiasis began in the early 1980s. By the end of 2012, the disease had reached its lowest levels ever. This paper reviews the progress made in eradicating dracunculiasis since the eradication campaign began, the factors influencing progress and the difficulties in controlling the pathogen that requires behavioural change, especially when the threat becomes rare. The challenges of intensifying surveillance are discussed, particularly in insecure areas containing the last foci of the disease. It also summarizes the broader benefits uniquely linked to interventions against dracunculiasis.

Resumo: A doença de Aujeszky (DA) é uma enfermidade conhecida na suinocultura pelo seu grande impacto produtivo e econômico. O Estado de São Paulo (SP) não é considerado área livre para DA, pois há evidências de circulação do vírus. Por isso, este trabalho teve como objetivo a identificação, o diagnóstico da situação epidemiológica e a avaliação de estratégias para a erradicação de focos de DA em sistema de produção de suínos no Estado de SP. Foram identificados dois focos da enfermidade no Município de Cerqueira César, um apresentou somente animais sororreagentes (Foco 1), e outro, casos clínicos da enfermidade (Foco 2). Para a erradicação da DA foram tomadas ações de defesa sanitária animal, sendo avaliadas duas estratégias: (A) eliminação de animais sororreagentes e (B) despovoamento gradual, com acompanhamento durante 12 meses. A erradicação por eliminação dos sororreagentes foi aplicada no Foco 1 e compreendeu: identificação por teste sorológico, isolamento e abate dos sororreagentes; vacinação dos negativos, reposição no plantel com animais livre de DA e avaliação dos índices produtivos. No início do estudo, 68% do plantel eram sororreagentes e, no final, 51%. No Foco 2 utilizou-se o despovoamento gradual; todos os animais foram enviados gradativamente ao abate sanitário, até que fosse estabelecido o vazio sanitário das instalações e, somente depois repovoado com animais livres da DA. Como essa última estratégia, apresentou maior eficácia, pois erradicou a DA no Foco 2, a mesma também foi aplicada no Foco 1, tendo em vista o insucesso da estratégia A inicialmente aplicada. Ao final, após monitoramentos sorológicos, concluiu-se que a DA foi erradicada em todos os focos identificados
Abstract: Aujeszky's disease (AD) is an important viral affection within the swine production, once it plays a significant role in economic losses. São Paulo state is not considered free of the disease, once evidences show that there is circulation of the virus. This study aimed to identify the epidemiologic situation and evaluation strategies for the eradication of outbreaks of AD in system of swine production in the state of Sao Paulo. Two outbreaks were identified in the Cerqueira César county, one of them only seroreagents were observed (Outbreak 1), and in the other, clinical signs were seen (Outbreak 2). In order to eradicate the disease, two sanitary strategies were tested: (A) eradication by means of positive serology and; (B) gradual depopulation, with a follow up of 12 months. The eradication by means of serology was used in the Outbreak 1, and included the identification, isolation and sacrifice of positives animals; vaccination of negative subjects, replacement with naive subjects, and assessment of production indices. At the beginning, 68% of animals were positive, and at the end 51% were positive. In Outbreak 2, gradual depopulation was employed, and all animals were sent to sanitary slaughter, until facilities were completely empty. Afterwards, animals free of the disease were used to repopulation. At the end of the study, it was observed that the last strategy was more effective, being, therefore, used in the outbreak 1. Finally, after serological monitoring, it was concluded that the AD was eradicated in all outbreaks identified

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate chemical and technological characteristics and study the effect of chemical ripeners in the sugarcane variety RB72454, at the end of the harvest season, and ratoon eradication of the, on a sugarcane reformed area, aiming the use of no-tillage or minimum tillage. The experimental design was arranged in randomized blocks with split split-plots, being the main treatments: Control; Roundup (glyphosate), at a dosage of 0.4 L of commercial product per hectare; Roundup (glyphosate), at a dosage of 3.0 L of commercial product per hectare; Roundup (glyphosate), at a dosage of 6.0 L of commercial product per hectare; Curavial (sulphometuron-methyl) at a dosage of 20 g of commercial product per hectare. The secondary treatments were sampling dates, respectively: 0 days after application (d.a.a.); 11 d.a.a; 18 d.a.a; 28 d.a.a.; 35 d.a.a. and 43 d.a.a. The following variables were measured: number of tillers per linear meter and plant structure at 62 and 290 days after harvest. As result of this study, the application of these treatments as chemical ripeners promoted a significant increase over the technological variables of the plant as: cane Brix (%), cane Pol (%), TPH, cane fiber (%) and ATR along the evaluated sampling seasons, emphasizing glyphosate at a dosage of 0.4 L of commercial product per hectare and sulphometuron-methyl at a dosage of 20 g of commercial product per hectare. Relatively to seasons, the best results were accomplished in the 4th sampling season, 28 days after application, where there was a better economic return per hectare. The use of the chemical ripeners, in the sugarcane crop, did not affect some important technological characteristics, for the industry quality samples, such as: phenolic compounds, total acidity, and volatile acidity. The precipitation that occurred during the sampling period (43 daa) benefited the reestablishment ...(Complete abstract, click electroni access below)

Abstract:
The Italian experience represents a historical example that education and sociopolitical vision can effectively contribute to the conquest of malaria. Until the end of 19th century, the infection spread mostly in the Central and Southern parts of Italy, with about 7 percent of the population affected and 20,000 annual deaths. Malaria showed different facies, owing to a complex vectorial system with remarkable ecological and behavioral differences. With the involvement of a critical mass of scientists and physicians, the etiology of malaria and the biological and socioeconomics determinants of the transmission dynamics were identified. This provided the opportunity to break the “malaria transmission chain” by an integrated approach. Moreover, Italy was the first country to develop special legislation for the fight against malaria, representing an example of integration between scientific, political, social and economic knowledge. In 1970, after decades of fight, the World Health Organization officially declared Italy free from malaria.

Abstract:
AbstractThe introduction, establishment, and spread of invasive species in terrestrial and aquatic environments is widely recognized as one of the most serious threats to the health, sustainability, and productivity of native ecosystems (Holmes et al. 2009; Mack et al. 2000; Pyšek et al. 2012; USDA Forest Service 2013). In the United States, invasive species are the second leading cause of native species endangerment and extinction, and their costs to society have been estimated at $120 billion annually (Crowl et al. 2008; Pimentel et al. 2000, 2005). These costs include lost production and revenue from agricultural and forest products, compromised use of waterways and terrestrial habitats, harm to human and animal health, reduced property values and recreational opportunities, and diverse costs associated with managing (e.g., monitoring, preventing, controlling, and regulating) invasive species (Aukema et al. 2011; Pimentel et al. 2005). The national significance of these economic, ecological, and social impacts in the United States has prompted various actions by both legislative and executive branches of the Federal Government (e.g., the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990; the Noxious Weed Control and Eradication Act of 2002; Executive Order 13112 of 1999, amended in 2016).

Abstract:
AbstractLong-term management strategies are invoked once an invasive species has become established and spread beyond feasible limits for eradication or containment. Although an invasive species may be well-established in small to large geographical areas, prevention of its spread to non-affected areas (e.g., sites, regions, and cross-continent) through early detection and monitoring is an important management activity. The level for management of established invasive species in the United States has increasingly shifted to larger geographical scales in the past several decades. Management of an invasive fish may occur at the watershed level in the western States, with watershed levels defined by their hydrologic unit codes (HUC) ranging from 2 digits at the coarsest level to 8 digits at the finest level (USGS 2018). Invasive plant management within national forests, grasslands, and rangelands can be implemented at the landscape level (e.g., Chambers et al. 2014), although management can still occur at the stand or base level. Landscapes in this chapter refer to areas of land bounded by large-scale physiographic features integrated with natural or man-made features that govern weather and disturbance patterns and limit frequencies of species movement (Urban et al. 1987). These are often at a large physical scale, such as the Great Basin.

Abstract:
Digital technologies are closing spatial and temporal gaps while engendering expansive new international communities. Replete with symbolic interactions, these transgeographic communities inspire new realms of educational possibility, allowing educators and learners to broaden perspectives through intellectual discourse and collaboration while eradicating cultural divides. The Summer Ecosystems Experience for Undergraduates (SEE-U) is a superior model of how such technology can be used to this end. Available to colleges and university students worldwide, the SEE-U program operates at three geographically distinct locations concurrently. The program includes global networking, GPS and GIS usage, real-time interactions, data collection, a globally networked geo-referenced digital database that was specifically created for this project, data manipulation, online lectures, bulletin board discussions, Web-based office hours, links to relevant resources, expert presenters, online demonstration videos, networked simulations, collaborative research, and a series of student presentations.

Abstract:
The spread of invasive species to new areas threatens the stability of ecosystems and causes major economic losses. We propose a novel approach to minimize the spread of an invasive species given a limited intervention budget. We first model invasive species spread using Hawkes processes, and then derive closed-form expressions for characterizing the effect of an intervention action on the invasion process. We use this to obtain an optimal intervention plan based on an integer programming formulation, and compare the optimal plan against several ecologically-motivated heuristic strategies used in practice. We present an empirical study of two variants of the invasive control problem: minimizing the final rate of invasions, and minimizing the number of invasions at the end of a given time horizon. The optimized intervention achieves nearly the same level of control that would be attained by completely eradicating the species, but at only 60-80\% of the cost.
