RESUMO
After the meeting held by the Spanish Contact Dermatitis and Skin Allergy Research Group (GEIDAC) back in October 2021, changes were suggested to the Spanish standard series patch testing. Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2% pet.), textile dye mixt (6.6% pet.), linalool hydroperoxide (1% pet.), and limonene hydroperoxide (0.3% pet.) were, then, added to the series that agreed upon in 2016. Ethyldiamine and phenoxyethanol were excluded. Methyldibromoglutaronitrile, the mixture of sesquiterpene lactones, and hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene (Lyral) were alo added to the extended Spanish series of 2022.

We report the first detection of a TeV γ-ray flux from the solar disk (6.3σ), based on 6.1 years of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The 0.5-2.6 TeV spectrum is well fit by a power law, dN/dE=A(E/1 TeV)^{-γ}, with A=(1.6±0.3)×10^{-12} TeV^{-1} cm^{-2} s^{-1} and γ=3.62±0.14. The flux shows a strong indication of anticorrelation with solar activity. These results extend the bright, hard GeV emission from the disk observed with Fermi-LAT, seemingly due to hadronic Galactic cosmic rays showering on nuclei in the solar atmosphere. However, current theoretical models are unable to explain the details of how solar magnetic fields shape these interactions. HAWC's TeV detection thus deepens the mysteries of the solar-disk emission.

Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have been associated with several immune-related adverse events, including sarcoidosis-like reactions (SLR). SLR, which has a low prevalence but an increasing incidence, is similar to sarcoidosis in terms of histology, and clinical and radiological manifestations. The most commonly affected organs are hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes and skin. SLR is an exclusion diagnosis, so a lymph node biopsy can be useful to distinguish between tumor progression and SLR, particularly in tumors in which nodal involvement is very common. Patients and methods We performed a retrospective analysis of SLR in all cancer patients receiving ICIs in our institution between January 2016 and June 2020. Results Among the 1063 treated patients, seven experienced SLR, four of whom were symptomatic (cough, skin lesions, arthralgia), with time to onset ranging from 1.5 to 6.7 months after ICI initiation. All seven patients had bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy, and granulomatous reactions in five of the six patients with lymph node biopsies. SLR improved in all patients, including four patients who continued with ICI. Three patients received corticosteroids and/or stopped ICI therapy. Four of these patients had partial responses at the time SLR was identified. Conclusion Management of SLR lacks a consensus recommendation, although corticosteroids and/or stopping the ICI are generally implemented. The potential consequences of stopping anticancer treatment should be taken into consideration, particularly in the absence of clear management recommendations (AU)

La urticaria es un motivo frecuente de consulta en Atención Primaria (AP); sin embargo, el correcto abordaje de esta enfermedad resulta controvertido y con frecuencia no está bien establecido. Por esta razón, se necesita esclarecer sus causas y desarrollar protocolos de tratamiento para mejorar el manejo de la urticaria en AP. Con este objetivo se ha realizado este trabajo. Un grupo de expertos en AP y dermatología, con experiencia en el tratamiento de la urticaria, han revisado las principales guías y publicaciones en urticaria con motivo de desarrollar recomendaciones claras e interdisciplinares sobre el manejo de la urticaria en AP. En este artículo presentamos nuestras recomendaciones basadas en el consenso de expertos, incluyendo algoritmos de diagnóstico y tratamiento simples y prácticos. Estas guías pueden ayudar a optimizar el manejo del paciente con urticaria, incrementar su calidad de vida y reducir los costes socioeconómicos asociados
Urticaria is a common cause for patient consultations in Primary Care (PC). However, the optimal approach to managing urticaria in PC is controversial and not well-established. For this reason, there is a clear need to clarify the causes of urticaria and to develop treatment protocols to improve urticaria management in the PC setting. The present work has been developed with this objective. A group of experts in PC and dermatology, with specific expertise in treating urticaria, have reviewed the main clinical guidelines and publications on urticaria in order to develop clear, interdisciplinary recommendations on managing urticaria. In this article, consensus-based recommendations are presented that include simple, practical diagnostic, and treatment algorithms. These guidelines will help to optimise the management of patients with urticaria, increasing their quality of life and reducing the socioeconomic costs associated with this illness

Because of the high energies and long distances to the sources, astrophysical observations provide a unique opportunity to test possible signatures of Lorentz invariance violation (LIV). Superluminal LIV enables the decay of photons at high energy. The high altitude water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory is among the most sensitive gamma-ray instruments currently operating above 10 TeV. HAWC finds evidence of 100 TeV photon emission from at least four astrophysical sources. These observations exclude, for the strongest of the limits set, the LIV energy scale to 2.2×10^{31} eV, over 1800 times the Planck energy and an improvement of 1 to 2 orders of magnitude over previous limits.

We present the first catalog of gamma-ray sources emitting above 56 and 100 TeV with data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory, a wide field-of-view observatory capable of detecting gamma rays up to a few hundred TeV. Nine sources are observed above 56 TeV, all of which are likely galactic in origin. Three sources continue emitting past 100 TeV, making this the highest-energy gamma-ray source catalog to date. We report the integral flux of each of these objects. We also report spectra for three highest-energy sources and discuss the possibility that they are PeVatrons.

The use of ultrasonic dental scaler (UDS) tips has been investigated for cleaning ceramic membranes fouled when filtering cactus juice. Thin and long tips having a larger coverage exhibited the best performance for removing the cake layer deposited on the membrane surface. Such tips cleaned an area equivalent to almost one third of total area of the membrane surface. However, the cleaned area could be increased notoriously if the membrane were placed in rotatory disc holder. The resistance-in series model and atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique helped to reveal the effect of the UDS tips as cleaning process of ceramic membranes. The reversible resistances estimated for UDS tips were 58% and 17% lower than the ones obtained by chemical cleaning at transmembrane pressures of 0.3â¯bar and 0.5â¯bar, respectively. This was corroborated by microscope images, which showed the detachment of cake layer of the membrane surface. Results of this work showed that UDS tips are an innovative option as cleaning strategy for filtration membranes.
