    Notes: Abstract Mytilus galloprovincialis Lmk. were maintained in the laboratory for three months in a semicontinuous water flow system. Animals were fed a commercial filter-feeder food and sampled after 0, 21, 35, 49, 77, and 91 days. In order to establish whether laboratory conditions and the food used were deleterious to mussels, their health status was assessed by quantifying different histological parameters of the digestive gland tissue. It was concluded that mussels kept for more than 35 days under the described laboratory conditions showed signs of stress presumably caused by the reproductive state of the mussels investigated. The food used and the nutrition-related health status of the animals were adequate, as shown by transmission electron microscopical studies after the 91-day maintenance period. A stress response was also evoked by a 10-day starvation period, which was reflected by an increased proportion of type I and type IV digestive tubules, and a reduced “Mean Epithelial Thickness” (MET). Finally, the results demonstrate the sensitivity of quantitative histological diagnosis in comparison to subjective tubule grading procedures in the assessment of the degree of stress experienced by mussels.

    Description: Aims To assess the results of transcatheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias in Latin America and establish the first Latin American transcatheter ablation registry. Methods and results All ablation procedures performed between 1 January and 31 December 2012 were analysed retrospectively. Data were obtained on the characteristics and resources of participating centres (public or private institution, number of beds, cardiac surgery availability, type of room for the procedures, days per week assigned to electrophysiology procedures, type of fluoroscopy equipment, availability and type of electroanatomical mapping system, intracardiac echo, cryoablation, and number of electrophysiologists) and the results of 17 different ablation substrates: atrio-ventricular node reentrant tachycardia, typical atrial flutter, atypical atrial flutter, left free wall accessory pathway, right free wall accessory pathway, septal accessory pathway, right-sided focal atrial tachycardia, left-sided focal atrial tachycardia, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, atrio-ventricular node, premature ventricular complex, idiopathic ventricular tachycardia, post-myocardial infarction ventricular tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia in chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy, ventricular tachycardia in congenital heart disease, and ventricular tachycardias in other structural heart diseases. Data of 15 099 procedures were received from 120 centres in 13 participating countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, Dominican Republic, Uruguay, and Venezuela). Accessory pathway was the group of arrhythmias most frequently ablated (31%), followed by atrio-ventricular node reentrant tachycardia (29%), typical atrial flutter (14%), and atrial fibrillation (11%). Overall success was 92% with the rate of global complications at 4% and mortality 0.05%. Conclusion Catheter ablation in Latin America can be considered effective and safe.

    Description: Beauville surfaces are an important kind of algebraic surfaces introduced by Catanese. They are rigid surfaces of general type defined over number fields. We prove that, for any $\sigma \in \mathrm {Gal}(\bar {\mathbb Q}/{\mathbb Q})$ different from the identity and the complex conjugation, there is a Beauville surface $S$ such that $S$ and its Galois conjugate $S^{\sigma }$ have non-isomorphic fundamental groups. This in turn easily implies that the action of $\mathrm {Gal}(\bar {\mathbb Q}/{\mathbb Q})$ on the set of isomorphism classes of Beauville surfaces is faithful. These results were conjectured by Bauer, Catanese and Grunewald, and immediately imply that $\mathrm {Gal}(\bar {\mathbb Q}/{\mathbb Q})$ acts faithfully on the connected components of the moduli space of surfaces of general type, a result due to the above-mentioned authors. These results on Beauville surfaces heavily depend on the fact that the absolute Galois group acts faithfully on regular dessins, a result that we prove in this paper. Moreover, we show the stronger result that the action is faithful on the set of quasiplatonic (or triangle) curves of any given hyperbolic type.
