The Zika virus (ZIKV) has rapidly reached epidemic proportions, especially in northeastern Brazil, and spread to other parts of the Americas. A recent increase prevalence microcephaly newborn infants vision-threatening findings these is likely associated with rapid ZIKV.To evaluate ocular presumed intrauterine ZIKV infection Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.Case series at a tertiary hospital. Twenty-nine (defined by cephalic circumference ≤32 cm) diagnosis congenital were recruited through an active...

Zika virus (ZIKV) infection during pregnancy causes congenital abnormalities, including microcephaly. However, rates vary widely, and the contributing risk factors remain unclear. We examined serum antibody response to ZIKV other flaviviruses in Brazilian women giving birth 2015–2016 outbreak. Infected pregnancies with intermediate or higher enhancement titers were at increased give microcephalic infants compared those lower (P < 0.0001). Similarly, analysis of ZIKV-infected pregnant...

Background The prevalence of developmental alterations associated with in-utero Zika virus (ZIKV) exposure in children is not well understood. Furthermore, estimation the Population Attributable Fraction (PAF) attributed to ZIKV has been performed due lack population-based cohorts data on symptomatic and asymptomatic exposures an appropriate control group. aim this study was characterize neurodevelopmental outcomes at 11 32 months age intrauterine estimate PAF secondary exposure....

Abstract A new series of thirty‐two enantiomerically pure derivatives xanthones ( 3 – 34 ) were synthesized for antitumor evaluation. Two carboxyxanthones 1 and 2 used as chemical substrates coupled with selected chiral building blocks 43 62 ), achieving yields enantiomeric excess (ee) values higher than 92 99 %, respectively. Carboxyxanthones synthesized, by a multi‐step synthetic pathway via diaryl ether intermediate (Ullman reaction), being compound described here the first time. The...
