Objective To explore prognostic factors and develop an accurate prognostic prediction model for angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL). Methods Clinical data from Chinese patients with newly diagnosed AITL were retrospectively analysed. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method survival curves; prognostic factors were determined using a Cox proportional hazards model. The sensitivity and specificity of the predicted survival rates were compared using area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results The estimated 5-year OS and PFS of 55 eligible patients with AITL were 22% and 3%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that the presence of pneumonia, and serous cavity effusions at initial diagnosis were significant prognostic factors for OS. Based on AUC ROC values, our novel prognostic model was superior to IPI and PIT based models and suggested better diagnostic accuracy. Conclusions Our prognostic model based on pneumonia, and serous cavity effusions at initial diagnosis enabled a balanced classification of AITL patients into different risk groups.
An update on the mineral-like Sr-containing transition metal arsenates
Authors: Đorđević Tamara , Karanović Ljiljana 
Published: May 2021

AbstractWe report on the crystal structures of three novel synthetic SrM-arsenates (M = Ni and Fe3+), isostructural or structurally related to the minerals from tsumcorite, carminite and brackebuschite groups. They were synthesised under mild hydrothermal conditions and further characterised using single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD), scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) and Raman spectroscopy. SXRD and SEM-EDS yielded formulae: (I) SrNi2(AsO4)2⋅2H2O, (II) Sr1.4Fe3+1.6(AsO4)2(OH)1.6 and (III) SrFe3+(AsO4)(AsO3OH). All three structures are built up of slightly distorted MO6 octahedra and AsO4 tetrahedra that are linked by Sr2+ with different coordination geometries and hydrogen bonds. I represent a basic structure type typical for tsumcorite-group minerals (space group C2/m) while II has a new intermediate structure between carminite, PbFe3+2(AsO4)2(OH)2 and arsenbrackebuschite, Pb2Fe3+(AsO4)2(OH) (s.g. Pm). III is triclinic and adopts a new structure-type (s.g. P$\bar{1}$). The structure of I is built up of infinite linear edge-sharing NiO4(OH2)2 octahedral chains, extending along [010] and linked by AsO4 tetrahedra, SrO8 polyhedra and hydrogen bonds. The structure of II is characterised by the carminite-like FeO4(OH)2 octahedral chains and Edshammar-polyhedral chains, which involves SrO11 coordination polyhedra similar to that of PbO11 in arsenbrackebuschite. Both chains in II are aligned parallel to the b axis of the monoclinic unit cell and connected together by the arsenate AsO4 tetrahedra, SrO8 polyhedra and the hydrogen-bonding network. The compound III has a new type of crystal structure based on the unusual corrugated octahedral–tetrahedral-quadruple chains. These are made up of a central double-sided chain linked to two single-sided chains into a quadruple chain extended along the a axis. The chains in III are built up of FeO6 octahedra and AsO4 tetrahedra further linked to each other by shared vertices. The quadruple chains are interconnected by additional AsO4 tetrahedra forming a heteropolyhedral 3D open framework. Strontium atoms are situated in the two channels. The structural connections to related minerals and inorganic compounds are discussed.
Domino effect of pituitary growth hormone tumor complicated by diabetic ketoacidosis and pituitary apoplexy: a case report
Authors: Pan JinYu , Yang XiangHong , Zhu Wei 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Background
Patients with growth hormone (GH)-secreting adenoma usually develop glucose intolerance. GH increases metabolic rate and, when secreted aberrantly, may result in metabolic syndrome. Herein, we examine the associations of pituitary tumor-induced secretion of hormone with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, and determine the relation of pituitary tumor apoplexy-induced diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute pancreatitis.

Case presentation
A 44-year-old male with a history of hypertension presented to the emergency department of our hospital on February 14, 2019 with symptoms of headache, dizziness, and vomiting. Computed tomography of the head revealed pituitary tumor with bleeding. An ultrasound scan of the abdomen revealed fatty liver and acute pancreatitis. Further examination revealed the presence of DKA, hypertriglyceridemia, cortical hypofunction crisis and acute kidney injury. Surgical endoscopic resection of the pituitary tumor resection via the transsphenoidal approach was performed. The patient’s postoperative recovery was remarkable.

Conclusions
Long-term growth hormone abnormality may trigger insulin resistance, leading to metabolic syndrome and impaired glucose and lipid metabolism. The pituitary adenoma apoplexy may also directly induce DKA, creating a domino effect, which further deteriorate the aberrant metabolism of glucose and lipids.
Significance of intra-nodular vessel sign in differentiating benign and malignant pulmonary ground-glass nodules
Authors: Fu Bin-jie , Lv Fa-jin , Li Wang-jia , Lin Rui-yu , Zheng Yi-neng , Chu Zhi-gang 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Background
The presence of pulmonary vessels inside ground-glass nodules (GGNs) of different nature is a very common occurrence. This study aimed to reveal the significance of pulmonary vessels displayed in GGNs in their diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Results
A total of 149 malignant and 130 benign GGNs confirmed by postoperative pathological examination were retrospectively enrolled in this study. There were significant differences in size, shape, nodule-lung interface, pleural traction, lobulation, and spiculation (each p < 0.05) between benign and malignant GGNs. Compared with benign GGNs, intra-nodular vessels were more common in malignant GGNs (67.79% vs. 54.62%, p = 0.024), while the vascular categories were similar (p = 0.663). After adjusting the nodule size and the distance between the nodule center and adjacent pleura [radius–distance ratio, RDR], the occurrences of internal vessels between them were similar. The number of intra-nodular vessels was positively correlated with nodular diameter and RDR. Vascular changes were more common in malignant than benign GGNs (52.48% vs. 18.31%, p < 0.0001), which mainly manifested as distortion and/or dilation of pulmonary veins (61.19%). The occurrence rate, number, and changes of internal vessels had no significant differences among all the pre-invasive and invasive lesions (each p > 0.05).

Conclusions
The incidence of internal vessels in GGNs is mainly related to their size and the distance between nodule and pleura rather than the pathological nature. However, GGNs with dilated or distorted internal vessels, especially pulmonary veins, have a higher possibility of malignancy.
A 61-year-old woman with jejunal lymphatic malformation visualized on computed tomography: a case report
Authors: Rupasinghe Mark , Houshyar Roozbeh , Chahine Chantal , Bui Thanh-Lan , Glavis-Bloom Justin , Cheng Caleb , Tseng Jill 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Background
Jejunal lymphatic malformations are congenital lesions that are seldom diagnosed in adults and rarely seen on imaging.

Case presentation
A 61-year-old Caucasian woman was initially diagnosed and treated for mucinous ovarian carcinoma. After an exploratory laparotomy with left salpingo-oophorectomy, a computed tomography scan of the abdomen and pelvis demonstrated suspicious fluid-containing lesions involving a segment of jejunum and adjacent mesentery. Resection of the lesion during subsequent debulking surgery revealed that the lesion seen on imaging was a jejunal lymphatic malformation and not a cancerous implant.

Conclusions
Abdominal lymphatic malformations are difficult to diagnose solely on imaging but should remain on the differential in adult cancer patients with persistent cystic abdominal lesions despite chemotherapy and must be differentiated from metastatic implants.

Authors: Blanchard Erin E. , Riesenberg Lee Ann , Bergman Lisa B. , Brown Michelle R. , O’Hagan Emma C. , Patel Shivani J. , Carter Tekuila R. 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Background
Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice (RCDP) is an increasingly popular simulation technique that allows learners to achieve mastery of skills through repetition, feedback, and increasing difficulty. This manuscript describes the implementation and assessment of RCDP in an anesthesia residency curriculum.

Methods
Researchers describe the comparison of RCDP with traditional instructional methods for anesthesiology residents' application of Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) and communication principles in a simulated environment. Residents (n = 21) were randomly assigned to either Traditional or RCDP education groups, with each resident attending 2 days of bootcamp. On their first day, the Traditional group received a lecture, then participated in a group, immersive simulation with reflective debriefing. The RCDP group received education through an RCDP simulation session. On their second bootcamp day, all participants individually engaged in an immersive simulation, then completed the “Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning” survey. Application of ECC and communication principles during the simulation was scored by a blinded reviewer through video review. Participants ended the bootcamp by ranking the experiences they found most valuable.

Results
No significant differences were found in the different group members’ individual performances during the immersive simulation, nor in the experiences they deemed most valuable. However, the Traditional education group reported higher levels of satisfaction and self-confidence in learning in 5 areas (p = 0.004–0.04).

Conclusions
Regardless of RCDP or Traditional education grouping, anesthesia residents demonstrated no difference in ECC skill level or perceived value of interventions. However, members of the Traditional education group reported higher levels of satisfaction and self-confidence in numerous areas. Additional RCDP opportunities in the anesthesia residency program should be considered prior to excluding it as an educational method in our program.

of a finite-dimensional split basic algebra 𝒜 over a non-Archimedean local field.
In particular, we prove a version of Gutkin’s conjecture, namely, we prove that every irreducible smooth representation of 𝐺 is compactly induced by a one-dimensional representation of the unit group of some subalgebra of 𝒜.
We also discuss admissibility and unitarisability of smooth representations of 𝐺.

Tendencies of the Contractual Regulation of Family Property Relations between Spouses with due regard to the Development of Legislation and Judicial Practice
Authors: Chashkova S. Yu. 
Published: May 2021

The author makes an attempt to determine tendencies for the development of the legal regulation of property relations between spouses based on the approved amendments and expected changes in the legal regulation, established jurisprudence and with due regard to the goals of family law regulation and models of contractual regulation of property relations between spouses enshrined in positive law. The paper considers in detail the following trends: enforcement and development of provisions concerning contractual regulation of property relations between spouses and their common property, law enforcement and development provisions concerning contractual regulation of the property relations between spouses for the provision of mutual maintenance.The author comes to the following conclusions. Firstly, the family law regulation of contractual relations concerning the common property of spouses and law enforcement as a whole comply with the goals of the family law regulation. Secondly, civil law regulation and law enforcement in terms of contractual property relations between spouses strengthen the "pro-creditor" approach and limit contractual freedom of spouses. Thirdly, the prospects for regulating the legal and contractual regime (with the stronger "pro-creditor" approach) may result in changes in the systemic interpretation and law enforcement of provisions concerning the contractual regulation of spousal property and they can contradict the goals of family law. Fourthly, the regulation of contractual relations between spouses concerning maintenance shows sufficient stability and general conformity with the goals of family law regulation, but does not exclude the search for options to expand its limits through the rules of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, while the practice of applying these provisions indicates a "pro-creditor" approach and non-compliance with the goals of family law regulation.
Possibility of Applying the Category "Good Faith and Abuse of Procedural Rights" to Participants in Disputes Arising from Corporate Legal Relations under the Legislation of the CIS and Neighboring Countries
Authors: Safaeva N. R. 
Published: May 2021

The existence of once common foundations of the procedural legislation of the CIS and neighboring countries with its subsequent independent development is of interest from the point of view of the analysis of individual procedural institutions. The paper examines the institution of abuse of procedural rights in relation to the category of corporate disputes.The procedural legislation of the Soviet period did not fix the concept of abuse of procedural law and did not contain its clear criteria for appropriate classification of certain negative cases in the procedural behavior of a participant in a trial in order to suppress such facts. It is with this "legacy" that the countries of the post-Soviet space approached the problem of abuse of procedural rights in the framework of the formation of their own procedural legislation. Attempts to solve this problem often had cardinal differences.As the analysis of the studied sources shows, the category of "good faith and abuse of procedural rights", in contrast to the Russian procedural legislation, is disclosed in all the examples exclusively within the general part of the procedural laws, which leaves a wide margin of discretion for the law enforcement officer when considering a particular category of disputes. Based on the analysis of the available procedural sources, two constructions of the "good faith — abuse" model were identified. The first one, the "sanctions" model of "good faith-abuse" is presented in most of the procedural sources of the CIS and neighboring countries. The second, "compensatory" model, although singled out separately in the procedural laws, does not disclose the mechanism of compensation for losses by a person who has abused his procedural rights, and therefore seems less effective in terms of protecting the victim from the unfair behavior of his procedural opponent.

Authors: Ingram R. E. 
Published: May 2021

ABSTRACT
To show the value of reflected waves in the fault-plane method a solution is given for the Chile earthquake of December 7, 1953. Data from pP recordings and to a lesser extent from PP recordings are of great importance in obtaining a satisfactory solution. No attempt is made to correlate the results with structure. Transcurrent faulting is found.

abstract
Resurveys made after the 1954 earthquake in the Dixie Valley Area determined the horizontal and vertical displacements which occurred. Triangulation stations on the west side of the fault moved north approximately 4 feet, and points on the east side moved south by a similar amount. Releveling showed a drop and also a tilt of a valley floor.
Instrumental study of the Quetta earthquake of February 18, 1955
Authors: Khan Abdul Qadir 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Aftershocks of the Quetta earthquake of February 18, 1955 (H = 22:48:38 G.M.T.), were recorded at three temporary field stations, 10 to 15 kilometers from the macroseismic epicentre. A spare Willmore seismograph operated in turn at the three stations. From the study of predominant S − P time intervals of aftershocks recorded at the field stations and at the permanent Observatory, velocity of P and depth of focus were calculated on the assumption that (i) Poisson's ratio of rocks is 1/4, thus n = (P − O)/(S − P) = 1.37, and (ii) S − P time intervals of peak frequency were due to aftershocks originating from the same point, probably the focus of the main shock. Velocity of P waves thus calculated was found to be 5.6 km/sec. and the depth of focus about 7 km.
Earthquake energy and ground breakage
Authors: Tocher Don 
Published: May 2021

abstractIn contrast to the prevalent notion that fault breakage is quite rare, every earthquake since 1906 with M &gt; 6 1/2 and with epicenter on land in northern California or Nevada has been accompanied by some degree of fault breakage at the surface of the earth. The smallest shock for which such effects have been observed was of M = 5¾.Earthquake energy in ergs (E), length of surface in km. (l), and maximum ground displacement at the fault in cm. (D) are related through the empirical equationE = 3.4 × 10 17 ( l D )in the range 6¼ &lt; M &lt; 8¼. This suggests that the energy released in these shocks is proportional to the area at the earth's surface of the zone of initially strained rock, and, as a corollary, that the volume of the initially strained rock is no thicker for the very large shocks than for the smallest shock with a surface fault trace. Strain energy for large, shallow-focus shocks in California and Nevada is stored in surface slabs of rock which are bounded below by a zone in which the rock can deform plastically at a rate that keeps up with the elastic deformation of the overlying slab.
Microseisms associated with norwesters
Authors: Chakrabarty S. K. , Sarker D. 
Published: May 2021

abstract
Records of microseisms associated with norwesters have been analyzed, the records being taken with three electromagnetic seismographs. It has been observed that while no appreciable microseisms are recorded when the disturbance is very close to the observatory, prominent microseisms are recorded when the center of disturbance is over the Bay of Bengal and away from the coast. The records indicate that for the production of microseisms a layer of water about 1 km. thick under the center of disturbance is necessary, that the microseismic disturbance is transmitted through the ocean bottom, and that a beating of high waves on the steep coast is not necessary. A comparison of the recorded variation of the period and amplitude of the microseisms with the changes in position of the atmospheric disturbance, together with the theoretical results of studies on the propagation of Rayleigh waves, give a good estimate of the structure of the ocean bed as well as of the depth of the continental shelf.
Spectral aspect of earthquakes
Authors: Thomson William T. 
Published: May 2021

AbstractConsidering ground acceleration associated with earthquakes to be composed of a series of velocity impulses of random amplitude, time spacing, and wave shapes, a statistical approach is used to establish its power spectral density. The general result indicates that if the mean of the velocity pulses is zero, the power spectral density becomes a constant, regardless of wave shape and time spacing, thereby supporting the equipartition of energy theory, first advanced by Housner.
