nsP2 Protease Inhibitor Blocks the Replication of New World Alphaviruses and Offer Protection in Mice.

New World alphaviruses, including Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV), eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV), and western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV), are mosquito-transmitted viruses that cause disease in humans. These viruses are endemic to the western hemisphere, and disease in humans may lead to encephalitis and long-term neurological sequelae. There are currently no FDA-approved vaccines or antiviral therapeutics available for the prevention or treatment of diseases caused by these viruses.

Purpose: We report the qualitative findings from a survey of elementary teachers regarding reading instruction. The purpose is to extend on quantitative findings in a previously described survey to gain a more in-depth understanding of Australian elementary teachers' approaches to the literacy block in their schools: how this is used, who makes instructional decisions, and how teachers respond to these.

Method: A web-based survey was used to collect data from Australian elementary teachers about their perspectives regarding reading comprehension instruction.

Rationale: The positive reinforcing effects of alcohol (ethanol) drive repetitive use and contribute to alcohol use disorder (AUD). Ethanol alters the expression of glutamate AMPA receptor (AMPAR) subunits in reward-related brain regions, but the extent to which this effect regulates ethanol's reinforcing properties is unclear.

Objective: This study investigates whether ethanol self-administration changes AMPAR subunit expression and synaptic activity in the nucleus accumbens core (AcbC) to regulate ethanol's reinforcing effects in male C57BL/6 J mice.

Background: The aim of cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)-dependent flutter ablation is the bidirectional conduction block of the CTI. Very-high-power short-duration (vHPSD) radiofrequency ablation aims to minimize conductive heating and increase resistive heating to create shallower but wider lesions in a very short time, while reducing the risk of collateral tissue damage. Experimental studies have shown that it produces effective transmural lesions with an equal or better safety profile compared to conventional parameters.
