The trend of phylogenetic and epitope variations of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron sub-lineages in Iran by Mehdi Shabani, Ahmad Nejati, Jila Yavarian, Jila Yavarian, Kaveh Sadeghi, Sevrin Zadheidar, Akram Sadat Ahmadi, Monire Ghadirali, Arghavan Zebardast, Adel Abedi, Mohammad Hossein Najmi, Nazanin-Zahra Shafiei-Jandaghi, Talat Mokhtari-Azad

“…Conservation levels varied based on the epitope class (higher for CD8+ vs. CD4+), protein (higher for non-spike vs. spike), and clades (higher for 21L, 22F, 23B, 23H, 23D, and 24B vs. 24A and 24C).ConclusionHerein, the increased conservation of CD8+ epitopes compared to CD4+ and B cell epitopes is probably attributable to the shorter length of the peptides associated with CD8+ epitopes. …”

“…Results This is a case-control study where total of 20 patients were identified, 10 patients underwent high-risk PCI on V-A ECMO support, (Control group) 10 patients underwent high-risk PCI without V-A ECMO; our study showed a statistically significant higher SYNTAX score in group 1 than that in group 2, p value 0.025, no statistically significance difference between the number of cases with left main lesions, unprotected LM and MVD between group 1 and group 2, average ECMO duration of 2.5 h, 6 patients on awake ECMO, and statistically non-significant difference between NYHA class between group 1 and group 2. Also our study showed no statistically difference between LV EF before and after PCI in both groups; in group 1, eight patients had complete revascularization in one session while in group 2 only seven patients had complete revascularization; one patient in group 1 had VT while in group 2, one patient had VF and another one suffered of asystole; group 1 patients all discharged home within 1 week while group 2 had two mortalities during PCI. …”

Biodiversité et corporéité dans la poésie diasporique caribéenne: vers une esthétique écoféministe by Myriam Moïse

Si la nature féminisée demeure un trope récurrent dans les œuvres des auteures de la diaspora afro-caribéenne, son exploitation poétique se fait souvent l’écho d’une critique acerbe contre les oppressions coloniales et patriarcales. …”
