[Nine-year trend in Escherichia coli resistance to ciprofloxacin: cross-sectional study in a hospital in Colombia].

Ciprofloxacin is a critically important antibiotic for human health. The increase of Escherichia coli resistance to ciprofloxacin is a global public health problem due to its importance in the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections and other serious infections; however, its prescription is high in the Colombian Caribbean. The objective was to determine the resistance trend of E.

Christchurch Heterozygosity and Autosomal Dominant Alzheimer's Disease.

Background: Variants in and (encoding apolipoprotein E and presenilin 1, respectively) alter the risk of Alzheimer's disease. We previously reported a delay of cognitive impairment in a person with autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease caused by the variant who also had two copies of the apolipoprotein E3 Christchurch variant ( ). Heterozygosity for the variant may influence the age at which the onset of cognitive impairment occurs.

Contexts and Scientific Production of Six Eminent Women Psychologists in the 20th Century.

The inclusion of women psychologists in arenas of academic and professional recognition has been a slow and often invisible process. This study seeks to highlight the scientific contributions of six women psychologists classified as eminent during the twentieth century (Haggbloom et al., Review of General Psychology, 6(2), 139-152, 2002) and the contexts in which they developed.

Subclonal somatic copy number alterations emerge and dominate in recurrent osteosarcoma.

Multiple large-scale tumor genomic profiling efforts have been undertaken in osteosarcoma, however, little is known about the spatial and temporal intratumor heterogeneity and how it may drive treatment resistance. We performed whole-genome sequencing of 37 tumor samples from eight patients with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma. Each patient had at least one sample from a primary site and a metastatic or relapse site.

Tracking the evolution of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms using chemotherapy signatures.

Patients treated with cytotoxic therapies, including autologous stem cell transplantation, are at risk for developing therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (tMN). Preleukemic clones (ie, clonal hematopoiesis [CH]) are detectable years before the development of these aggressive malignancies, although the genomic events leading to transformation and expansion are not well defined. Here, by leveraging distinctive chemotherapy-associated mutational signatures from whole-genome sequencing data and targeted sequencing of prechemotherapy samples, we reconstructed the evolutionary life-history of 39 therapy-related myeloid malignancies.
