Preliminary results on an autochthonous dengue outbreak in Lombardy Region, Italy, August 2023
Euro Surveill. 2023 Sep;28(37). doi: 10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2023.28.37.2300471.ABSTRACTIn August 2023, six locally acquired dengue virus 1 infections were detected in Lodi province, Lombardy Region, in northern Italy, where the vector Aedes albopictus is present. Four cases were hospitalised, none died. The viruses clustered with Peruvian and Brazilian strains collected between 2021 and 2023. This preliminary report highlights the importance of continued integrated surveillance of imported vector-borne virus infections and the potential for tropical disease outbreaks in highly populated regions of northern Italy where compet...

Cross-cultural adaptation and concurrent validity of the children's OMNI scale of perceived exertion for Arm-Crank activity in Spina Bifida
CONCLUSIONS: The OMNI scale was cross-culturally adapted to Brazilian-Portuguese. The Brazilian OMNI-Wheel was validated based on strong associations of RPE with HR and VO2. Implications For RehabilitationThe original English OMNI was cross-culturally adapted to Brazilian-Portuguese.A Brazilian wheelchair OMNI was concurrently validated for Arm-Crank Activity in adolescents with spina bifida.This OMNI scale version may aid health providers in monitoring perceived exertion in Brazil.PMID:37706498 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2023.2252342

Oral Health Literacy-Measurement Instruments and their Psychometric Properties: A Systematic Review
CONCLUSION: The psychometric properties that were evaluated in the present systematic review were structural validity, internal consistency, reliability (test-retest), and hypothesis testing for construct validity. To date, there is no gold standard measuring instrument to evaluate the criterion validity parameter.PMID:37709674

Structure of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from Paracoccidioides lutzii in complex with an aldonic sugar acid
Biochimie. 2023 Sep 12:S0300-9084(23)00240-7. doi: 10.1016/j.biochi.2023.09.013. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe pathogen Paracoccidioides lutzii (Pb01) is found in South America countries Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Brazil, especially in the central, west, and north regions of the latter. It belongs to the Ajellomycetaceae family, Onygenales order, and is typically thermodimorphic, presenting yeast cells when it grows in animal tissues, but mycelia when in the environment, where it produces the infectious propagule. Moreover, this fungus is one of the etiologic agents of Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), the most impor...
