The lack of practical knowledge and effective engagement with gender in blue carbon initiatives poses a threat to their success and sustainability and risks exacerbating existing gender inequalities. Developed by an interdisciplinary team of experts, this paper proposes a research agenda, comprised of seven research areas as well as priority actions, designed to catalyze a shift towards more just, equitable and effective blue carbon initiatives. This paper is a call-to-action to increase commitment, funding, and collaborative, interdisciplinary science to close the gender gap in the conservation and restoration of blue carbon ecosystems and enhance their social-enovironmental impacts.

A new species of Epidendrum of the Incomptum group is described and illustrated, so far found only from the type locality. Information is provided to separate between the species belonging to the Arbuscula and Incomptum groups. Moreover, the new taxon described here, Epidendrum pembertonii, is thoroughly compared with the four most morphologically similar species (E. brenesii, E. bisulcatum, E. foldatsii, E. sotoanum), showing notable differences in the number and shape of leaves, inflorescence length, color of flowers, sepals venation, shape and ornamentation of the lip and column.

Desde diciembre de 2019, una nueva enfermedad causada por coronavirus 2019 (COVID19), estalló en Wuhan, China. Causante del síndrome respiratorio agudo severo (SARS-CoV2)
 Algunos casos asocian COVID-19 y trastornos autoinmunes; el papel de este virus en la autoinmunidad esta poco dilucidada. El lupus eritematoso sistémico (LES) es una enfermedad autoinmune. El Baricitinib es una molécula inhibidora de quinasa de Janus (JAK) aprobada para el tratamiento de trastornos autoinmunitarios e inflamatorios, recientemente utilizado para el manejo de la enfermedad grave por COVID-19.
 Se trata de 4 casos de LES con COVID 19, dos de las cuales ingresaron a la unidad de cuidados intensivos, fallecieron; con antecedente de nefritis lúpica. Los dos casos siguientes sobrevivieron. Aún se desconocen los factores de riesgo que incrementan la mortalidad en LES, sin embargo, se asoció nefritis lúpica con mortalidad en COVID-19. Se requieren más estudios para comprender el riesgo entre las enfermedades autoinmunes y COVID-19.

La colonoscopia es el mtodo de eleccin para el diagnstico y tratamiento de la mayora de las enfermedades de colon. Es la herramienta ms eficaz en la prevencin y deteccin oportuna de cncer colorrectal (CCR), influyendo en su incidencia y mortalidad. Su eficacia y calidad depende de la habilidad del endoscopista, el porcentaje de

Colorectal cancer prevention relies on effective screening through colonoscopy and polypectomy. Several techniques and methods have been described to manage complex colonic polyps such as the ones that are endoscopically unresectable. Across time, we have been able to perform less invasive techniques that include different types of colonic resections, ranging from partial thickness, full-thickness and, segmental colectomies, however, none has proven to be the treatment of choice for these lesions. The technique presented here is an attractive alternative to segmental colectomy using a robotic platform to perform a full-thickness resection.

Allergy to cow's milk proteins is the most frequent food allergy and its prevalence has increased in the last decade. Although most patients have symptoms after the intake of dairy milk, other routes of sensitization through skin and mucous membranes have been described. A 31-year-old male patient who is a professional chef and started with oropharyngeal symptoms after the intake of milk. Since he tolerated other dairy products, he did not suppress them from his diet. However, the clinical picture progressed and cutaneous symptoms were added; finally, anaphylaxis occurred by contact with bread dough that contained butter and milk. The patient was treated in the emergency department, where an increase in serum tryptase was verified. Skin prick tests and serological tests were positive for milk and its fractions. Reports of anaphylaxis caused by dermal contact with cow's milk are very scarce and they have been reported only in children. We believe that repeated food handling could favor cutaneous sensitization in adults with a personal history of atopy.
