TL;DR: The role of Tsalli's non-extensive information measure within an a la Jaynes Information-Theory-based formulation of Statistical Mechanics is discussed in this paper. But the role of information measure is not discussed in this paper.
Abstract: The role of Tsalli's non-extensive Information Measure within an a la Jaynes Information-Theory-based formulation of Statistical Mechanics is discussed in rather detailed fashion.

TL;DR: L. kefiri is a good candidate to be used in gut inflammatory disorders since the LPS-induced increment of IL-6 and GM-CSF levels in control mice was significantly attenuated in L. keFiri treated mice.
Abstract: The evaluation of the impact of probiotics on host health could help to understand how they can be used in the prevention of diseases. On the basis of our previous studies and in vitro assays on PBMC and Caco-2 ccl20:luc reporter system presented in this work, the strain Lactobacillus kefiri CIDCA 8348 was selected and administrated to healthy Swiss mice daily for 21 days. The probiotic treatment increased IgA in feces and reduced expression of proinflammatory mediators in Peyer Patches and mesenteric lymph nodes, where it also increased IL-10. In ileum IL-10, CXCL-1 and mucin 6 genes were upregulated; meanwhile in colon mucin 4 was induced whereas IFN-γ, GM-CSF, and IL-1β genes were downregulated. Moreover, ileum and colon explants showed the anti-inflammatory effect of L. kefiri since the LPS-induced increment of IL-6 and GM-CSF levels in control mice was significantly attenuated in L. kefiri treated mice. Regarding fecal microbiota, DGGE profiles allowed differentiation of experimental groups in two separated clusters. Quantitative PCR analysis of different bacterial groups revealed only significant changes in Lactobacillus population. In conclusion, L. kefiri is a good candidate to be used in gut inflammatory disorders.

TL;DR: Fossil content (vertebrate paleofauna and palynology) indicates that the sediments of the Solimoes Formation in Acre (SW Brazilian Amazonia) are continental, having been deposited by avulsive fluvial belts in a floodbasin-floodplain environment.

TL;DR: In this model of endotoxemia, fluid resuscitation corrected both serosal intestinal and sublingual microcirculation but was unable to restore intestinal mucosal perfusion, suggesting intramucosal acidosis might be due to persistent villi hypoperfusion.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that persistent villi hypoperfusion explains intramucosal acidosis after endotoxemic shock resuscitation. DESIGN: Controlled experimental study. SETTING: University-based research laboratory. SUBJECTS: A total of 14 anesthetized, mechanically ventilated sheep. INTERVENTIONS: Sheep were randomly assigned to endotoxin (n = 7) or control groups (n = 7). The endotoxin group received 5 microg/kg endotoxin, followed by 4 microg x kg(-1) x hr(-1) for 150 mins. After 60 mins of shock, hydroxyethylstarch resuscitation was given to normalize oxygen transport for an additional 90 mins. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Endotoxin infusion decreased mean arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, and superior mesenteric artery blood flow (96 +/- 10 vs. 51 +/- 20 mm Hg, 145 +/- 30 vs. 90 +/- 30 mL x min(-1) x kg(-1), and 643 +/- 203 vs. 317 +/- 93 mL x min(-1) x kg(-1), respectively; p < .05 vs. basal), whereas it increased intramucosal-arterial PCO2 (deltaPCO2) and arterial lactate (3 +/- 3 vs. 14 +/- 8 mm Hg, and 1.5 +/- 0.5 vs. 3.7 +/- 1.3 mmol/L; p < .05). Sublingual, and serosal and mucosal intestinal microvascular flow indexes, and the percentage of perfused ileal villi were reduced (3.0 +/- 0.1 vs. 2.3 +/- 0.4, 3.2 +/- 0.2 vs. 2.4 +/- 0.6, 3.0 +/- 0.0 vs. 2.0 +/- 0.2, and 98% +/- 3% vs. 76% +/- 10%; p < .05). Resuscitation normalized mean arterial blood pressure (92 +/- 13 mm Hg), cardiac output (165 +/- 32 mL x min(-1) x kg(-1)), superior mesenteric artery blood flow (683 +/- 192 mL x min(-1) x kg(-1)), and sublingual and serosal intestinal microvascular flow indexes (2.8 +/- 0.5 and 3.5 +/- 0.7). Nevertheless, deltaPCO2, lactate, mucosal intestinal microvascular flow indexes, and percentage of perfused ileal villi remained altered (10 +/- 6 mm Hg, 3.7 +/- 0.9 mmol/L, 2.3 +/- 0.4, and 78% +/- 11%; p < .05). CONCLUSIONS: In this model of endotoxemia, fluid resuscitation corrected both serosal intestinal and sublingual microcirculation but was unable to restore intestinal mucosal perfusion. Intramucosal acidosis might be due to persistent villi hypoperfusion
