in English, French Ceux d’entre nous qui travaillent dans le domaine de la bioéthique tiennent pour acquis que le reste du monde lit notre travail et l’utilise dans le cadre de leurs processus d’étude et de raisonnement. Il est vrai que certains des plus grands bioéthiciens jouissent d'une grande influence nationale et internationale, mais les interactions lors de nouvelles conférences internationales ou la consultation de publications apportent souvent des nouvelles révélatrices - et potentiellement humiliantes - sur le peu d'effet que notre recherche a tendance à avoir sur ce qui se passe ailleurs. En mettant de côté nos sentiments de blessure professionnelle, nous devrions nous inquiéter bien davantage d'un éventuel effort inutile et d'une entrave aux progrès dans le domaine, fondée sur une ignorance involontaire de la façon dont d'autres régions géographiques font leur bioéthique. Il n'est pas logique, d'un point de vue pratique, que les efforts soient dupliqués, surtout si quelqu'un d'autre l'a fait mieux, ou du moins plus tôt. Le gaspillage est encore plus grand lorsque l'on explore un terrain déjà bien étudié, puis que l'on constate que les ressources supplémentaires ne valent pas la peine d'être utilisées. À tout le moins, les recherches inutiles sont une occasion perdue d'améliorer la bioéthique.Virus binding to host cells involves specific interactions between viral (glyco)proteins (GP) and host cell surface receptors (Cr) (protein or sialic acid (SA)). The magnitude of the enthalpy of association changes with temperature according to the change in heat capacity (ΔCp) on GP/Cr binding, being little affected for avian influenza virus (AIV) haemagglutinin (HA) binding to SA (ΔCp = 0 kJ/mol/K) but greatly affected for HIV gp120 binding to CD4 receptor (ΔCp = -5.0 kJ/mol/K). A thermodynamic model developed here predicts that values of ΔCp from 0 to ~-2.0 kJ/mol/K have relatively little impact on the temperature sensitivity of the number of mosquito midgut cells with bound arbovirus, while intermediate values of ΔCp of ~-3.0 kJ/mol/K give a peak binding at a temperature of ~20 °C as observed experimentally for Western equine encephalitis virus. More negative values of ΔCp greatly decrease arbovirus binding at temperatures below ~20 °C. Thus to promote transmission at low temperatures, arboviruses may benΔSa_immob which would diminish its binding at human body temperature. It is proposed that prior non-specific binding of HIV through attachment factors takes much of the entropy loss for ΔSa_immob so enhancing subsequent specific gp120CD4 binding at 37 °C. This is consistent with the observation that HIV attachment factors are not essential but augment infection. Antiviral therapies should focus on increasing virion size, for example through binding of zinc oxide nanoparticles to herpes simplex virus, hence making ΔSa_immob more negative, and thus reducing binding affinity at 37 °C. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.

The data is considered to be comprehensive combinations of non-metal elements in the form abcx-ydef whereby a,b,c,d,e,f are halogen (fluorine to iodine), hydrogen or a lone pair and x,y are carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, oxygen and sulfur. Data were obtained from ab initio geometry optimization and frequency calculations at HF, B3LYP, MP2 and CCSD levels of theory on 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. In total, 8535 non-enantiomeric structures were produced by custom-made codes in Mathematica and Q-Chem quantum chemical package. Extracted geometric and energetic data as well as raw output files, codes and scripts associated with the data production are presented in the data repository. © 2020 The Authors.This article presents analytical observations on physicochemical parameters and major and trace element concentrations of water, ice, and sediment samples from the lake systems of Clearwater Mesa (CWM), northeast Antarctic Peninsula. Geochemical analyses include inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for cations and trace elements and ion chromatography for anions. Some figures are included (i.e. Piper and Gibbs diagrams) which indicate water classification type and rock-water interactions in CWM, respectively. It also contains PHREEQC software output, listing the chemical speciation for dissolved elements, Saturation Indexes (SI), and modelling outputs. NOS inhibitor Each lake SI are also illustrated in a figure. Finally, total organic and inorganic carbon (TOC and TIC, respectively) were determined for bottom lake sediments and marginal salt samples. This information will be useful for future research assessing the impacts of anthropogenic pollution and the effects of climate change, providing insights into naturally occurring geochemical processes in a pristine environment, and evaluating geochemical behaviour of dissolved elements in high-latitude hydrological systems. These data correspond to the research article "Dissolved major and trace geochemical dynamics in Antarctic Lacustrine Systems" [1]. © 2020 The Authors.The COVID-19 outbreak is now one of the most critical crises to manage for most of the national healthcare systems in the world. In the absence of authorised pharmacological treatments, many antiretrovirals, including darunavir/cobicistat fixed combination, were used off-label in the hospital wards as life-treating medicines for COVID-19 patients. Unfortunately, for most of them, the drug products available on the market are not designed to be administered by a nasogastric tube to inpatients of intensive care units. Therefore, their manipulation, even if it can strongly affect the product quality, is necessary for the preparation of suspension to meet patients' need. In this situation, it is urgent to provide data and guidance to support hospital pharmacist and clinicians in their activity. The data in this article indicate that darunavir/cobicistat suspensions compounded by pharmacists using as active ingredient a commercially available tablet can be stable at least for one week. © 2020 The Author(s).
