Abstract. In this study the differences in the measured atmospheric CO2 mixing ratio at three aircraft profiling sites in NE Spain separated by 60 km are analyzed in regard to the variability of the surface fluxes in the regional surface influence area. First, the Regional Potential Surface Influence (RPSI) for fifty-one days in 2006 is calculated to assess the vertical, horizontal and temporal extent of the surface influence for the three sites at the regional scale (104 km2) at different altitudes of the profile (600, 1200, 2500 and 4000 meters above the sea level, m a.s.l.). Second, three flights carried out in 2006 (7 February, 24 August and 29 November) following the Crown Atmospheric Sampling (CAS) design are presented to study the relation between the measured CO2 variability and the Potential Surface Influence (PSI) and RPSI concepts. At 600 and 1200 m a.s.l. the regional signal is confined up to 50 h before the measurements whereas at higher altitudes (2500 and 4000 m a.s.l.) the regional surface influence is only recovered during spring and summer months. The RPSI from sites separated by 60 km overlap by up to 70% of the regional surface influence at 600 and 1200 m a.s.l., while the overlap decreases to 10–40% at higher altitudes (2500 and 4000 m a.s.l.). The scale of the RPSI area is suitable to understand the differences in the measured CO2 concentration in the three vertices of the CAS, as CO2 differences are attributed to local surrounding fluxes (February) or to the variability of regional surface influence as for the August and November flights. For these two flights, the variability in the regional scale influences the variability measured in the local scale. The CAS sampling design for aircraft measurements appears to be a suitable method to cope with the variability of a typical grid for inversion models as measurements are intensified within the PBL and the background concentration is measured every ~102 km.

Abstract. From 6 to 8 November 1982 was recorded one of the most catastrophic flash-flood events in the Eastern Pyrenees affecting Andorra and also France and Spain with rainfall accumulations exceeding 400 mm in 24 h, 44 fatal victims and widespread damage. This paper aims to document exhaustively this heavy precipitation event and examines mesoscale simulations performed by the French Meso-NH non-hydrostatic atmospheric model. Large scale simulations show the slow-evolving synoptic environment favourable for the development of a deep Atlantic cyclone which induced a strong southerly flow over the Eastern Pyrenees. From the evolution of the synoptic pattern four distinct phases have been identified during the event. The mesoscale analysis presents the second and the third phase as the most intense in terms of rainfall accumulations and highlights the interaction of the moist and conditionally unstable flows with the mountains. The presence of a SW low level jet (30 m s−1) around 1500 m also had a crucial role on focusing the precipitation over the exposed south slopes of the Eastern Pyrenees. Backward trajectories based on Eulerian on-line passive tracers indicate that the orographic uplift was the main forcing mechanism which triggered and maintained the precipitating systems more than 30 h over the Pyrenees. The moisture of the feeding flow mainly came from the Atlantic Ocean (7–9 g kg−1) and the role of the Mediterranean as a local moisture source was very limited (2–3 g kg−1) due to the high initial water vapour content of the parcels and the rapid passage over the basin along the Spanish Mediterranean coast (less than 12 h).

Abstract Background Improving understanding of the impact of antibiotic overuse is a key component of the global action plan to address antibiotic resistance. Play is an underutilized opportunity to engage adults in learning about antibiotic resistance and the importance of appropriate antibiotic use in mitigating this public health threat. Our objective was to evaluate the reach of a web-based antibiotic awareness personality quiz. Figure 1. Antibiotic Personality Quiz Participants Methods A personality quiz (http://www.tiny.cc/antibioticquiz) was developed using an online platform (Tryinteract.com). The quiz included a series of short personality-based questions. Once complete, based on the responses provided, the respondent was automatically assigned an antibiotic that best matched their personality. This result was accompanied by key teaching points about the assigned antibiotic, a statement about the importance of appropriate antibiotic use and links to find more information. The quiz was launched in November 2017 to coincide with World Antibiotic Awareness Week and disseminated via social media. It was updated iteratively each year. We evaluated usage statistics from November 7 2017 to June 7 2020. Results During the 31-month evaluation period, there were 287,868 views of the quiz, and it was completed 207,148 times. The quiz was shared extensively on social media (Facebook 1667 shares, Twitter 1390 clicks). From a subset of 37,825 recent participants who were asked about their profession, most identified as non-infectious diseases healthcare professionals (n= 18,235, 48.2%), followed by infectious disease healthcare professionals (n=8,119, 21.8%), and healthcare students (n=6,986, 18.5%) (Figure 1). Respondents were well-represented globally, including US, Canada, Spain, France, India, United Kingdom, and Indonesia. Conclusion This exploratory analysis suggests incorporation of play into social media campaigns may augment the size of the receiving audience. An antibiotic awareness personality quiz engaged a high volume and broad range of non-infectious disease experts in learning more about antibiotic resistance. Antimicrobial stewards and public health campaign leaders should incorporate play into awareness opportunities and evaluate their impact. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures

In November 2012, unusual symptoms were observed in plants of sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) grown in commercial greenhouses of Almería Province, southeastern Spain. Symptoms included interveinal yellowing, upward leaf curling, and internode shortening, and were more evident in the upper part of the plant. Abnormal ripening of fruits was observed in symptomatic plants, with fruits remaining orange in the red varieties and yellow in the orange varieties, thus reducing their marketability. During December 2012 and January 2013, severe outbreaks of this disease syndrome occurred, with many greenhouses exhibiting almost 100% incidence. The symptoms observed were similar to those reported for isolates of Pepper vein yellows virus (PeVYV, genus Polerovirus, family Luteoviridae) (previously also named Pepper yellow leaf curl virus [PYLCV] and Pepper yellows virus [PYV]) (2,4). Twenty five symptomatic leaf and/or fruit samples (some of them supplied by Zeraim Ibérica, S.A.), each from a different greenhouse, were analyzed and all reacted positively in double-antibody sandwich-ELISA with an antiserum against the polerovirus Cucurbit aphid-borne yellows virus (CABYV) (Sediag, Longvic, France), known to cross-react with PeVYV (2). Total RNA was extracted by TRIsure reagent (Bioline, London, United Kingdom) from symptomatic leaves and analyzed by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR with primers Pol-G-F (5′-GAYTGCTCYGGYTTYGACTGGAG-3′) and Pol-G-R (5′-GATYTTATAYTCATGGTAGGCCTTGAG-3′) designed for universal detection of poleroviruses by amplifying the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and coat protein (CP) partial genes (3). DNA fragments of the expected size (1.1 kbp) were amplified supporting a polerovirus infection in all the analyzed samples. The PCR product obtained from one sample (Almería-1) was extracted from agarose gel with a QIAquick gel extraction kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany), cloned in pGEM-T Easy vector (Promega, Madison, WI), and one clone was sequenced (Macrogen Inc., Seoul, South Korea). The PCR products amplified from three other samples (2-13, 7-13, and 8-13) were directly sequenced. The nucleotide identity between the amplified fragments (GenBank Accession Nos. KC769487, KC839992 to 94), calculated after alignment with ClustalW, was 99.7 to 100%. The highest nucleotide identity of the Spanish sequences was with a PeVYV isolate from Turkey (FN600344, named as PYV) (98.5 to 98.7%). The spread of PeVYV in Spain is additional evidence of the emergence of this virus as a global threat for pepper crops after its first detection in Japan in 1995 and recent reports from the Mediterranean Basin (1,2).

Abstract Aim The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate fluoride uptake in human enamel after use of commercially available toothpastes containing different fluoride compounds, or combinations of fluoride actives formulated into a single product, as a means of determining the efficiency of each formula for delivering caries preventing fluoride to demineralized (caries active) enamel. Methods and Materials Four test dentifrices and two controls were assessed and placed in groups as follows: Group 1: Lacer® (Spain); Group 2: Positive control-USP Reference Standard 1100 ppm F; Group 3: Fluocaril® Bi-Fluoré 250 (France); Group 4: Colgate Fluor Active (Denmark); Group 5: Elmex® (France); and Group 6: A placebo (formulated the same as the USP Reference Standard toothpaste with the exception that it contained < 1 ppm F). Cores 3 mm in diameter were removed from erupted human enamel specimens (extracted by local oral surgeons for orthodontic reasons) and stored in 1% Thymol solution prior to use. They were ground and polished to remove the natural fluoride rich enamel layer, then exposed to a demineralization solution, and assessed for surface microhardness to enable randomization for use in the study. Each group of five specimens underwent a daily pH cycling procedure that involved exposure to pooled human saliva (refreshed three times daily). The groups were then exposed to dentifrice slurries four times daily for one minute per exposure and to a demineralization solution for three hours. The cycling procedure was repeated for five days. Specimens were again analyzed for surface microhardness and fluoride uptake upon completion of five days of treatment. Results Average surface hardness: Groups 2 and 3 showed a statistically significant greater (p<0.05) change indicating greater remineralization compared to all other groups. The average change was 23.45 for Group 2 and 22.65 for Group 3. All other groups had changes ranging from 4.25-8.62. No other statistically significant differences were observed between groups. Fluoride uptake results: Groups 2 and 3 showed statistically significantly greater fluoride uptake versus all other groups (p <0.05). Groups 1 and 5 were significantly different from Group 6. No other statistically significant differences were observed for either analysis. Conclusions Of the marketed products included in the study, the Fluocaril® Bi-Fluoré 250 product formulation provided both the highest level of fluoride uptake and mineralization to the demineralized enamel. The clinical significance of these in vitro results is the confirmation Fluocaril® Bi-Fluoré 250 is effective at remineralizing enamel caries lesions.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) originated in November 2019 in China and quickly spread throughout the world causing a disease named COVID-19. An analysis of the epidemiological data on morbidity and mortality caused by SARS-CoV-2 shows that, in some countries, namely Belgium, UK, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain, an increased case fatality rate (CFR) was noticed compared to the rest of the world. The CFR, calculated as the number of deaths from the total number of the cases, ranges in these countries from 10.22% to 15.8% according to the Center for Evidence-Based Medicine (CEBM). At the same time, in the countries of Central and Northern Europe, this parameter varies between 3.78% and 4.94%. This significant heterogeneity in CFR between countries has not been given a convincing explanation yet. It was found that the precursor of SARS-CoV-2 is a virus circulating in bats in China. The mutations that occurred in this virus altered its receptor specificity, thereby enabling viral infection in humans. Bats are highly resistant to viral infections due to their robust interferon system and a reduced level of inflammatory reactions. Viruses replicate in these animals up to high titers without any substantial harm to their health. As a result, bats represent a large reservoir of viruses with the potential to infect other animals, including humans. The infection of people with bat (or human) betacoronaviruses can lead to the formation of memory B-cells that provide an accelerated antibody response to cross-reactive epitopes upon subsequent infection. The early emergence of neutralizing antibodies in SARS-CoV-2 patients correlates with the severity of the disease and the likelihood of a fatal outcome. The antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) of infection/disease known for various viruses, including SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV, may be a possible cause of this phenomenon. In this article, we suggest a close connection between the distribution areas of bats carrying SARS-CoV-1-like viruses and the CFR from COVID-19.

BackgroundThe growth in the number of targeted therapies available for the treatment of solid tumors has placed biomarker testing at the heart of clinical practice, especially for non-small lung cancer (NSCLC). Guidelines such as those by the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the European Society for Medical Oncology, recommend that all advanced NSCLC patients be tested for EGFR, ALK, ROS-1 and PD-L1 and that further markers (such as BRAF and KRAS) be included in larger panels. Despite these guidelines, oncologists do not always test NSCLC patients for these biomarkers. This study explores the reasons for not testing and compares these across the US, France, Germany, UK, Italy and Spain (collectively EU5) by examining real-world usage data.MethodsBetween September and November 2019, a panel of oncologists (n=65 in US and n=235 in EU5) were asked to report on their practices relating to biomarker testing for 1,110 NSCLC patients through the submission of online, de-identified charts detailing testing for EGFR, ALK, ROS-1, PD-L1, BRAF, KRAS/NRAS, MET, RET, dMMR/MSI, TMB and NTRK. We collected data on 11,116 instances where biomarkers were skipped and recorded physicians’ reasons for not testing (selected from a pre-coded list).ResultsOf the reasons provided for not testing in the US (n=2,114) and EU5 (n= 9,002), waiting for progression was selected the most (27% and 25%, respectively). Lack of data regarding clinical utility (18% and 16%) and patients not meeting criteria (13% and 17%) were mentioned next as the top reasons for not testing across both regions. Compared to the US, EU5-based physicians had higher mentions of patients not meeting criteria (17% vs. 13%), tests not being reimbursed (7% vs. 5%) and treatment costs not being reimbursed (6% vs. 4%). The full distribution of reasons is shown in table 1 below.Abstract 487 Table 1Reasons for not testingConclusionsDespite recommendations in guidelines, physicians in the US and EU5 often forgo testing to wait until after progression, because of a perceived lack of clinical utility or because they deem the patient ineligible for testing. While individual countries differ on their approaches to testing - some are more cost sensitive (UK, France) while others are more discerning as to which patients are eligible for testing (Germany) - a concerted effort is needed to educate physicians on the clinical utility of biomarker testing.

ImportanceSurfactant administration may be needed in late preterm through full-term neonates, but the pathophysiology of their respiratory failure can be different from that of early preterm neonates. The lung ultrasonography score (LUS) is accurate to guide surfactant replacement in early preterm neonates, but to our knowledge, it has not yet been studied in the late preterm through full-term neonatal population.ObjectiveTo assess whether LUS is equally accurate to predict surfactant need in late preterm through full-term neonates as in early preterm neonates.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis prospective, international, multicenter diagnostic study was performed between December 2022 and November 2023 in tertiary academic neonatal intensive care units in France, Italy, Spain, and the US. Late preterm through full-term neonates (≥34 weeks’ gestation) with respiratory failure early after birth were enrolled.ExposurePoint-of-care lung ultrasonography to calculate the neonatal LUS (range, 0-18, with higher scores indicating worse aeration), which was registered in dedicated research databases and unavailable for clinical decision-making.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe main outcomes were the area under the curve (AUC) in receiver operating characteristic analysis and derived accuracy variables, considering LUS as a replacement for other tests (ie, highest global accuracy) and as a triage test (ie, highest sensitivity). Sample size was calculated to assess noninferiority of LUS to predict surfactant need in the study population compared with neonates born more prematurely. Correlations of LUS with the ratio of hemoglobin oxygen saturation as measured by pulse oximetry (SpO2) to fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) and with the oxygen saturation index (OSI) were assessed.ResultsA total of 157 neonates (96 [61.1%] male) were enrolled and underwent lung ultrasonography at a median of 3 hours (IQR, 2-7 hours) of life; 32 (20.4%) needed surfactant administration (pretest probability, 20%). The AUC was 0.87 (95% CI, 0.81-0.92). The highest global accuracy and sensitivity were reached for LUS values higher than 8 or 4 or lower, respectively. Subgroup analysis gave similar diagnostic accuracy in neonates born late preterm (AUC, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.81-0.97; n = 111) and early term and later (AUC, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.73-0.96; n = 46). After adjusting for gestational age, LUS was significantly correlated with SpO2:FiO2 (adjusted β, −10.4; 95% CI, −14.0 to −6.7; P &amp;lt; .001) and OSI (adjusted β, 0.2; 95% CI, 0.1-0.3; P &amp;lt; .001).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this diagnostic study of late preterm through full-term neonates with respiratory failure early after birth, LUS accuracy to predict surfactant need was not inferior to that observed in earlier preterm neonates. An LUS higher than 8 was associated with highest global accuracy (replacement test), suggesting that it can be used to guide surfactant administration. An LUS value of 4 or lower was associated with the highest sensitivity (triage test), suggesting it is unlikely for this population to need surfactant.

The St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre (1572) and the Sack of Antwerp (1576), two of the most notorious massacres of the 1570s, were of international consequence in a confessionally-divided Europe. This thesis offers a comparative analysis of the Elizabethan political and print responses to both atrocities, evaluating to what extent and in what ways each shaped the increasingly Protestant political character of the period. It compares strands of argument aired by Elizabethan councillors, courtiers, military commanders and clerics, in contrast with the content of contemporary news pamphlets, to establish whether there was any overlap between the parameters of political debate and topical print. It investigates whether, and on what occasions, statesmen or figures associated with the court may have sought to confessionalise public opinion via the production of printed news. Analysing often overlooked printed sources, the thesis focuses on aspects of content and contexts of production. It considers the kinds of comment expressed on the massacres per se and in relation to: the nature of the wars in France and the Low Countries; Elizabeth’s foreign and domestic agendas; the compound significance of her gender, the unresolved succession and her realm's vulnerability to foreign invasion; and providential discourses concerning God’s favour and protection. These lines of enquiry throw up some insights into changing English attitudes towards the Catholic crowns of France and Spain and key figures abroad. Finally, the thesis reaches some broader conclusions regarding the development of an increasingly militant Anglo-Protestant nationalism in the mid-Elizabethan period.
