Germany national laboratory of S for l’ test of avian flu confirmed Sunday evening that three swans had examined the positive one for the constraint of the influenza of l’ bird H5N1 which is mortal with the human ones. This brings to six whole the d’ number; wild birds found died in the last days in the Bavarian city of Nuremberg which examined the positive one for the disease; five dumb swans and a goose of Canada.

Les tests were carried out in Germany federal institute of search for search for S for the health of the animals based at Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute (FLI) in Insel Riems, close to Greifswald in Germany nord-est.

Le president of the FLI, professor Thomas Mettenleiter, declared in a report/ratio laid out that the FLI n’ were not astonished by the return by the virus after having intended to speak about the demonstration to a farm about turkey in Böhmen Ende in the Czech Republic last week. The demonstration had like consequence the gathering of 6.000 turkeys to the farm. Nuremberg is with 120 kilometers of the border tchèque.

FLI the spokesman of S for the health of the animals, Reinking d’ Elke, says was feasible for him that the virus was introduced into l’ Germany by l’ intermediary of the wild birds of migration or it could have already been present in the German wild population d’ oiseau.

Des scientific with the FLI is embarassés as for why the demonstration s’ is produced in summer since the birds aren T with the size of their migration in été.

Selon Bavarian civils servant of health it n’ y have any danger with human demonstration actuelle.

Les local authorities established a cord around a sector in a radius of 4 kilometers of the two lakes where the infected birds were found; the sector is indicated a high-risk zone and the restrictions on the animal movements are in force. poultry

Les firm in the high-risk zone must keep their birds with l’ interior for l’ moment, no bird can be transported in or out of the zone, and the owners d’ pet are invited not to leave their cats and dogs to wander approximately freely in the secteur.

“We will supervise to see whether the virus draws aside by l’ intermediary of the wild birds in the remainder of l’ Germany,” said Prof Mettenleiter.

Le principal danger is that the animals and the birds will become infected; the risk with human is very small puisqu’ they should come into direct contact with the infected birds. It n’ y has any cause for panic, said Mettenleiter.

Cependant, like precaution, the shooting of the wild birds should be stopped has dit.

Germany to him; the last epidemic of S of H5N1 started in 2005 in Ruegen close to the Baltic and diffusion with 6 of Germany states of S 16, including Bavaria where the current demonstration s’ is produite.

La disease s’ is widespread birds with the mammals, including three cats and a marten. No human case n’ was brought back. The last case reported in Germany took place in l’ August; last year, in a swan in a zoo with Dresde.

Does Tumor Size Or Microvascular Invasion Affect Prognosis?

UroToday.com - the size of tumour was shown with directly are correlated with patient results in the patients presenting renal carcinome of cells (RCC) although absolute size where the tumours show l’ increased aggressiveness remains a subject of great discussion. The presence of l’ invasion lymphovascular in the differently localised tumours of RCC was associated unfavourable results, well qu’ still, this remains a subject of the polemic with contradictory data in the literature. Here, Miyagawa and colleagues examine these parameters as predictive factors of results in their population of patient of RCC.

Les authors give an account of 162 patients who underwent the nephrectomy radical for localised RCC or locally advanced over one 13 years period. The median follow-up for the group was 97 month. In l’ analyze univariable and multivariable, the authors noted qu’ a cut of size of tumour of 5 centimetres differentiated significantly from the patients as for the free repetition (p=0.004) and to total survival (p=0.001). The presence of l’ invasion lymphovascular however, n’ was not a significant predictive factor of results in l’ analyze univariable or multivariable.

Les authors concludes that the cut of 5.0cm could be more adapted distinction of size to envisage results in the patients with localised RCC.
