When we hear that #2023 is the hottest year ever, it is hard to understand the extent. Maybe it is only just a little bit hotter? Unfortunately no. I am back from a symposium on marine environment at Tohoku University, and here is the picture that I saw. Regarding #sea surface #temperature, 2023 is hotter to an extent that was never observed since we monitor that temperature globally. https://climate.copernicus.eu/record-high-global-sea-surface-temperatures-continue-august

"Future outbreaks are inevitable. How do we ensure that research systems are in place and work when we next need them? In 2022, when the global outbreak of mpox emerged, clinical trialists had new tools for rapid rollout of trials; however, the system failed another stress test. In this Viewpoint, we highlight areas for improving implementation of future epidemic clinical trials"

The effects of the CTLA4 deletion were not very surprising, what's fascinating here is how it compares to the double mutants (PD1/CTLA4).

"CTLA4 disrupted CART19 cells display prolonged surface CAR expression, increased proliferation, and enhanced CART19 effector function supported by unopposed CD28 co-stimulation, which is lost in CART19 cells deficient for both PD-1 and CTLA4"

'Stomach cancer thus might be a secondary consequence of the microbe’s aggressive search for nutrients. For the H. pylori, “there’s no selective pressure to cause cancer in 80 years. The selective pressure is to acquire iron now,” Karen Guillemin, a microbiologist at the University of Oregon, said'

"In their study, published on Monday in the journal Cell, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania suggest that serotonin reduction is triggered by remnants of the virus lingering in the gut. Depleted serotonin could especially explain memory problems and some neurological and cognitive symptoms of long Covid, they say."

RT by @joseggusmao: Mário Machado, um neonazi condenado, fez parte do grupo que espalhou o terror na noite em que mataram Alcindo Monteiro. É incompreensível que Mamadou Ba seja condenado por constatar este facto. Espero que em em segunda instância se anule esta decisão.
