Title A name given to the resource COVID-19 vulnerability: the potential impact of genetic susceptibility and airborne transmission Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource David C Thompson, Naftali Kaminski, Albert I. Ko, Daniel W. Nebert, Juergen K V Reichardt, Vasilis Vasiliou, Krystal J. Godri Pollitt, Jordan Peccia, Charles S. Dela Cruz Description An account of the resource Abstract The recent coronavirus disease (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, is inarguably the most challenging coronavirus outbreak relative to the previous outbreaks involving SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. With the number of COVID-19 cases now exceeding 2 million worldwide, it is apparent that (i) transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is very high and (ii) there are large variations in disease severity, one component of which may be genetic variability in the response to the virus. Controlling current rates of infection and combating future waves require a better understanding of the routes of exposure to SARS-CoV-2 and the underlying genomic susceptibility to this disease. In this mini-review, we highlight possible genetic determinants of COVID-19 and the contribution of aerosol exposure as a potentially important transmission route of SARS-CoV-2.

Title A name given to the resource La seguridad alimentaria y su relación con la suficiencia e incertidumbre del ingreso: un análisis de las percepciones del hogar Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource David Castro Lugo, Gustavo Félix Verduzco, Gilberto Aboites Manrique Description An account of the resource El derecho de toda persona al acceso confiable de alimentos sanos y nutritivos se reconoce en México a partir de las reformas realizadas en 2011 al artículo 4° constitucional. La seguridad alimentaria ocurre cuando los individuos cubren ese derecho lo cual no sucede totalmente ni en países desarrollados como Es-tados Unidos donde en 2014 el 14% de los hogares presentaron inseguridad alimentaria. Ese mismo año en México el porcentaje de inseguridad alimentaria fue 42.5% (con mediciones basadas en la percepción y experiencias de hambre). Aparentemente un ingreso suficiente debería bastar para la seguridad alimen-taria, sin embargo, el análisis revela que un tercio de los hogares con ingresos por encima de la línea de bienestar se encuentran en inseguridad. En contraparte, no todos los hogares debajo de la línea califican para inseguridad alimentaria: en 2014 el 45% de este tipo de hogares tuvieron seguridad. El documen-to explora esta paradoja y contrasta la hipótesis de que la inseguridad alimentaria está determinada no sólo por la insuficiencia sino por la incertidumbre del flujo de ingresos, conduciendo el análisis hacia la perspectiva de la estabilidad laboral. El contraste empírico utiliza microdatos de la Encuesta Nacional de Ingresos y Gastos de los Hogares (ENIGH; en Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía [INEGI]) 2008-2014 para estimar un modelo probit multinivel que controla la heterogeneidad regional.

Title A name given to the resource SARS-CoV-2: Current Perspective on Control, Prevention, and Therapeutic Promise Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource David Chibuike Ikwuka, Ed Nwobodo, Ugochukwu Bond Anyaehie, George Uchenna Eleje, Adaeze C. Ayuk, Chukwuanugo Nkemakonam Ogbuagu, Princewill Ugwu Description An account of the resource Background: The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak has halted activities throughout the globe because of its rapid spread. COVID-19 is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) a β-coronavirus first detected in China. SARS-CoV-2 has been implicated to be transmitted via direct contact, fomite, respiratory droplets, and possibly aerosol. The spread of the disease is complicated due to the slow onset of symptoms and asymptomatic infected patients. Methods: This narrative communication summarizes the recent researches sourced using sensitive search strategies to identify COVID-19 current perspectives on the control, prevention, and therapeutic promise. Result: Several strategies and multiple control measures have been implemented around the globe to contain COVID-19. Considering the exponential spread of the pandemic, several scientists and physicians have been racing to discover possible therapeutics and vaccines for COVID-19. There are clinical trials to investigate the vaccine designed to protect against the infection and also to substantiate the claim made for BCG protection against COVID-19. Although, there is currently no universally approved medication to treat SARS-CoV-2, there have been random reports of existing medications ameliorating the infection, and these regimens are still under clinical trial. There is also the potential therapeutic prospect of rhinothermy to fight SARS-CoV-2 judging from its success in fighting upper respiratory tract viral infection. Conclusion: The information provided in this communication gives a reliable intellectual grounding regarding the current perspective on COVID-19 control, progress made in the development of vaccines and therapeutic regimen, and where future research in this area should be focused.

Title A name given to the resource Bird populations as sentinels of endocrine disrupting chemicals Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource David Costantini, Enrico Alleva, Claudio Carere, Alberto Sorace, Daniela Santucci Description An account of the resource Exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) is a widespread phenomenon in nature. Although the mechanisms of action of EDCs are actively studied, the consequences of endocrine disruption (ED) at the population level and the adaptations evolved to cope with chronic EDC exposure have been overlooked. Birds probably represent the animal taxon most successfully adapted to synanthropic life. Hence, birds share with humans a similar pattern of exposure to xenobiotics. In this article, we review case studies on patterns of behaviour that deviate from the expectation in bird species exposed to EDCs. We provide behavioural and ecological parameters to be used as endpoints of ED; methodological requirements and caveats based on species-specific life-history traits, behavioural repertoires, developmental styles, and possibility of captive breeding; a list of species that could be used as sentinels to assess the quality of man-made environment.

Title A name given to the resource Cutaneous Manifestations of COVID-19: A Case Series from Brazil Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource David de Almeida Souza, Daniela Alves Pereira Antelo Description An account of the resource Introduction: Brazil has presented alarming and growing data on infection and deaths from SARS-CoV-2. There are more than 4 500 000 confirmed cases and more than 137 000 deaths ranking second in the world ranking of infected people. In addition to the involvement of the respiratory, cardiovascular, renal and neurological systems, this virus also causes non-specific skin lesions in same patients. Little is known about the pathophysiology of cutaneous involvement. At this moment, we cannot predict a difference in prognosis based on skin lesions. Methods: We conducted an observational case study of 25 patients affected by SARS-CoV-2 who had dermatological lesions. We described the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of each case, demonstrating the polymorphism of the skin lesions and also making a correlation with the chronology of presented systemic symptoms. Results: Twenty five cases of COVID-19 with cutaneous manifestations (urticaria, erythematous rash, maculopapular eruption, pruritus, erythema multiforme-like lesions, dyshidrotic eczema) were observed during, after and before systemic symptoms. A few cases with skin involvement were also observed as isolated symptoms of the viral infection. These data demonstrate the clinical polymorphism related to skin involvement of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, emphasizing the importance of clinical suspicion by dermatologists when handling suspected cases in the current epidemiological scenario. Conclusion: Although the number of cases in the world stage seems to be regressing, infection by SARS-CoV-2 will be part of the dermatologist's daily routine. As long as we do not have a widely available vaccine and the pandemic takes on an endemic profile, we need to be aware of these manifestations, not only for the proper diagnosis, indication of patient isolation, as well as all the necessary biosafety procedures in dermatology clinics.     Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2020 Subject The topic of the resource coronavirus infections, covid-19, Brazil, SARS-CoV-2, Skin manifestations Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 10.29021/spdv.78.4.1281 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Revista da Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Infectious and parasitic diseases, Dermatology https://www.socictopen.socict.org/files/original/31ce8a023036401b8c158349ed21344d.pdf 215b3c146ca21a8c37a21f615fa1d6f9 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Kassianos, Angelos P. Kassianos Description An account of the resource Objective: Illness perceptions (IP) are important predictors of emotional and behavioral responses in many diseases. The current study aims to investigate the COVID-19-related IP throughout Europe. The specific goals are to understand the temporal development, identify predictors (within demographics and contact with COVID-19) and examine the impacts of IP on perceived stress and preventive behaviors.Methods: This was a time-series-cross-section study of 7,032 participants from 16 European countries using multilevel modeling from April to June 2020. IP were measured with the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire. Temporal patterns were observed considering the date of participation and the date recoded to account the epidemiological evolution of each country. The outcomes considered were perceived stress and COVID-19 preventive behaviors.Results: There were significant trends, over time, for several IP, suggesting a small decrease in negativity in the perception of COVID-19 in the community. Age, gender, and education level related to some, but not all, IP. Considering the self-regulation model, perceptions consistently predicted general stress and were less consistently related to preventive behaviors. Country showed no effect in the predictive model, suggesting that national differences may have little relevance for IP, in this context.Conclusion: The present study provides a comprehensive picture of COVID-19 IP in Europe in an early stage of the pandemic. The results shed light on the process of IP formation with implications for health-related outcomes and their evolution.
