Comparison of peripheral blood versus bone marrow blasts immunophenotype in pediatric acute leukemias
Authors: Almarzooqi Saeeda , Crumbacher Jill , Firgau Edward , Kahwash Samir 
Published: July 2017

Due to continued improvement in molecular and immunodiagnostic methods, more leukemia subtypes are being defined and diagnosed by their genetic and immunophenotypic profiles rather than by morphologic features alone. These advances, while relegating morphologic review and bone marrow (BM) blast counts to a lesser relevance, have elevated expectations of a full diagnostic work up using any specimen containing blasts, regardless of BM blast status. In some clinical situations, the pathologist is often asked to render a complete diagnostic and prognostic work up of leukemia on a peripheral blood (PB) sample, due to poor specimen quality or blast yield in a BM sample, with the intuitive assumption that PB and BM blasts, in the same patient and at a given point of time, are identical.In an attempt to evaluate the immunophenotypic aspects of this assumption, we searched our records for cases of acute leukemia that had immunophenotyping of both PB and BM at the time of diagnosis, and found five cases: two acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and three acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cases. Utilizing similar pre-analytical conditions and similar FC gating strategy, positivity of the blasts in PB vs BM for some commonly used markers was compared. Significant differences were seen in several myeloid, lymphoid, and platelet markers in all patients. This discordance may carry significant clinical implications.

Published: July 2017

AbstractBackground: Chronic renal allograft loss is considered as immunologically mediated when donor-specific alloantibodies are detected. However, remotely detected alloantibodies with lack of detection more proximate to graft loss occurrence may obscure the humoral association with graft damage.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 609 patients multiply tested post-transplant for detectable alloantibodies and correlated their results with clinical outcomes.Results: Most patients had no detectable post-transplant alloantibodies (Group 1, n = 393), some converted from nondetectable to detectable alloantibodies (Group 2, n = 97), some always had detectable post-transplant alloantibodies (Group 3, n = 69), and some demonstrated alloantibodies that subsequently became undetectable (Group 4, n = 50). The incidence of death-censored graft survival for Group 4 patients was similar to Group 2 and 3 patients, and greater than Group 1 patients. Further, interstitial fibrosis/tubularatrophy (IF/TA) free survival was significantly worse (p=0.018) for Group 4 versus Group 1 recipients. Also, Group 4 versus Group 1 IF/TA-free survival was worse when recipients were regrouped based solely on anti-HLA class II (p=0.006), but not anti-HLA class I (p=ns) antibodies.Conclusions: Detectable anti-HLA antibodies, even remotely, post-transplant identifies recipients at greater risk for IF/TA associated graft loss when compared to patients without detectable alloantibodies.

AbstractAlthough thromboembolic events are well known complications of nephrotic syndrome, there are several unanswered questions relating to the nephrotic syndrome and thromboembolism such as the mechanism of thromboembolism and optimal diagnostic and therapeutic management strategies. We report on a case of a 26 year-old female with nephrotic syndrome, intracardiac thrombi, and evidence of embolization to brain and spleen. Diagnostic evaluation revealed a patent foramen oval with intracardiac thrombi. Despite adequate anticoagulation therapy, the left ventricular thrombus embolized into the spleen. However, with continued anticoagulation the patient had a satisfactory recovery and was released from the hospital with minimal neurologic deficit.
Postsäkulares Placemaking im oberpfälzischen Konnersreuth: Sakralisierung, Kulturerbe, Eigensinn
Authors: Funk Thomas P. 
Published: July 2017

Abstract. The initiation of the beatification process of catholic stigmatist Therese Neumann of Konnersreuth/Bavaria (1898–1962) in February 2005 marks the beginning of the touristic marketing of her birth place in the context of EU-regionalization. In the case concerned, I argue, the Postsecular emerges in the evolution of new forms of EU-regional governance and in the controversial valorisation of a catholic popular cult as cultural heritage. I examine postsecular placemaking in Konnersreuth as a process, in which actors of the local civil society, the official church and the EU bureaucracy stage Therese Neumann by the valorisation of her material heritage, by sacralization and profanation. In doing this, actors renegotiate boundaries and transitions between the religious and the secular sphere, as well as between the regional, the global and the singular universality of grace. In their productions of space, local actors mediate between tourist and spiritual experiences of authenticity, between the popular demand for heritage and the awaiting for the religious event of grace. The postsecular, I argue, emerges in the insistence of parts of the local civil society to authorize the deceased Therese Neumann herself as an – though unwilling – supranatural actor in the placemaking process and in their legitimation of their own (un-)willingness to participate in the sacralization and touristification of their heritage with the will of the stigmatist. The article shows, how religious belief can play the role of a ressource as well as a disruptive factor in postsecular placemaking processes and neoliberal governing by community.

Foi realizada a revisão sistemática dos equinoides pertencentes às ordens Phymosomatoida e Arbacioida da Formação Jandaíra, Bacia Potiguar provenientes de três localidades fossilíferas. Para a ordem Phymosomatoida foram revisadas as espécies Rosadosoma riograndensis (Maury, 1925) e Phymosoma major Coquand,1862, e para a ordem Arbacioida, Goniopygus sp. As espécies Cyphosoma majus (Coquand, 1862) e Phymosoma tinocoi (Santos, 1960) foram consideradas sinônimas de Phymosoma major. Goniopygus sp. foi transferida para Goniopygus durandi Perón & Gauthier, 1881. A partir dos dados biométricos dos exemplares de Rosadosoma riograndensis e Phymosoma major foi verificado que o diâmetro da carapaça influencia de forma significativa a altura das carapaças, assim como o diâmetro do perístoma. Além disso, foram observados diferentes estágios ontogenéticos nos exemplares analisados. Na Formação Jandaíra, os equinoides endocíclicos tiveram seu registro do Turoniano ao Santoniano.

Tendo em vista a escassez de trabalhos anatômicos utilizados em análises taxonômica e evolutiva da família Myrtaceae, especialmente para os gêneros de Eucalyptus, este trabalho teve como objetivo descrever a estrutura e ilustrar a morfo-anatomia do limbo foliar e pecíolo de E. citriodora oriundos da região Noroeste do Paraná, visando contribuir com dados estruturais à família Myrtaceae e para o conhecimento sobre a biologia e a taxonomia da espécie. O material vegetal foi fixado em FAA 50, submetido ao processo de desidratação, em seguida transferido para etapa de infiltração utilizando-se uma mistura da Resina Líquida mais Ativador em Pó (Meio A). Para a polimerização foi utilizado o Meio B que, consiste na mistura do Meio A mais Hardner (endurecedor). Esta solução foi colocado nos moldes de polietileno (Histomold) e os fragmentos do tecido vegetal foram dispostos em corte transversal e longitudinal. Após a montagem dos blocos foi realizado o corte para a visualização das estruturas anatômicas ao microscópio óptico. As características morfo-anatômicas evidenciadas no presente estudo são aquelas comumente encontradas em representantes da família Myrtaceae e no gênero Eucalyptus. O estudo da anatomia foliar deve ser considerada em filogenia, pois há caracteres promissores, tais como: o formato das células comuns da epiderme, presença de tricomas ou não, cavidades secretoras presente na fase adaxial e/ou abaxial , entre outros, que possibilitam a classificação taxonômica das espécies, além de fornecer dados importantes para a construção de filogenia.

Published: July 2017

Resulta apreciable la pertinacia de los criterios negativos en torno a la autonomía didáctica del Derecho Agrario, lo que de manifiesto la sobrevivencia aún de ciertos niveles de incomprensión, incluso de desconocimiento con respecto a las esenciales razones económicas, políticas, sociales y jurídicas que han argumentado a través de casi un siglo, sólidamente, la existencia del Derecho Agrario como ciencia y como rama jurídica, lo que motiva la necesidad de continuar investigando sobre la enseñanza del Derecho Agrario, evaluando los aciertos y carencias en el desarrollo de la impartición de esta materia dentro de los estudios jurídicos. El presente trabajo, ofrece una semblanza de los principales programas analíticos de la asignatura de Derecho Agrario para los diferentes modelos pedagógicos (presencial, semipresencial y a distancia) presentando un diagnóstico acerca de cuáles han sido las regularidades, aciertos y las carencias sobre las cuales es preciso continuar trabajando. Los principales resultados que aquí se presentan, además del aludido diagnóstico, consisten en la propuesta fundamentada de continuar defendiendo la impartición del Derecho Agrario como asignatura autónoma y en un conjunto de recomendaciones encaminadas al perfeccionamiento de dichos programas.

Published: July 2017

Despite the availability of ample food and reasonably low food prices, food insecurity prevailed in many developing countries in 1970s. The paradigm shift in 1980s from supply to demand side of food security underlined the entitlement or access to food as the center of mainstream research. Current study is the findings of the data collected from household level survey regarding socio-economic and food insecurity conditions in the Punjab province of Pakistan. The descriptive analysis and cross tabulation of the household data revealed that household assets, house building material, size of agricultural farms, ownership of tractor, farm livestock were associated with food security conditions of the farming community. The data results also confirmed that the poorer families made major expenditure on the food out of total household expenditure every month. It was also revealed that households in the irrigated regions of Punjab have better entitlement as compared with households surveyed from Thal (desert) and rain-fed regions. The daily consumption of eggs, milk and various forms of meat was found below daily recommended nutritional requirements in most of the households. This study confirms the findings of the earlier surveys made in this regard and highlights the demand side of food insecurity issues in Punjab province of Pakistan. Food security policies in Pakistan should focus entitlement and food access of farming households. The household and farm assets need to be built for reducing vulnerability of poorer farming community to food insecurity in Pakistan.

AbstractGeomagnetically induced currents (GICs) have been long recognized as a ground effect arising from a chain of space weather events. GICs have been measured and modeled in many countries, resulting in a considerable amount of data. Previous statistical analyses have proposed various types of distribution functions to fit long‐term GICs data sets. However, these extensive statistical approaches have been only partially successful in fitting the data sets. Here we use modeled GICs data sets calculated in four countries (Brazil, South Africa, United Kingdom, and Finland) using data from solar cycle 23 to show a plausible function based on a nonextensive statistical model of the q‐exponential Tsallis function. The fitted q‐exponential parameter is approximately the same for all locations, and the Lilliefors test shows good agreement with the q‐exponential fits. From this fit, we compute that the likely numbers of extreme GICs events over the next ten solar cycles are 1–2 for both Finland and United Kingdom, at least one for Brazil and less than one event for South Africa. Our results indicate that the nonextensive statistics are a general characteristic of GICs, suggesting that the ground current intensity has a strong temporal correlation and long‐range interaction.
Nitrogen‐Doped Hierarchical Porous Carbon Architecture Incorporated with Cobalt Nanoparticles and Carbon Nanotubes as Efficient Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Published: July 2017

AbstractHierarchical porous carbon has attracted great interest because of its distinctive structure and superior properties for designing electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices. In this work, a novel method to fabricate nitrogen‐doped hierarchical porous carbon (NHPC) is reported, which is incorporated with Co nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The NHPC is prepared using a facile and scalable MgO–Co template method. Metal nitrate–glycine solution combustion synthesis, followed by a high temperature calcination, is used to prepare MgO–Co/N‐doped carbon precursor. CNTs are formed by the in situ Co‐catalytic growth during heat treatment; at the same time, localized graphitic layers are also formed around the Co nanoparticles. After acid washing, NHPC with hierarchical multipores and ultrafine Co nanoparticles is obtained. When applied as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalyst, the NHPC displays high catalytic activity not only in terms of onset potential and current density, but also superior durability and tolerance to methanol crossover in alkaline electrolyte. The remarkable ORR activity is originated from the cooperative effects of high specific surface area, hierarchical pore structure, ultrasmall Co nanocrystals, localized graphitic layers, CNTs, and N‐doping.

AbstractAn efficient organocatalytic cascade reaction for the synthesis of the bicyclo[3.3.1]nonan‐9‐one skeleton is reported. The cascade reaction proceeds smoothly between prochiral 4‐substituted cyclohexanones and (E)‐2‐(3‐arylallylidene)‐indene‐1,3‐diones involving a 1,6‐/γ‐protonation/1,4‐addition sequence to construct bicyclic products that contain five stereogenic centers in good to high chemical yields and excellent diastereo‐ and enantioselectivity (up to >20:1 dr and 97% ee) in the presence of a thioether‐linked l‐prolinol‐camphor‐derived organocatalyst at ambient temperature. An interesting organocatalytic three‐component triple cascade reaction has been performed to produce a bicyclo[2.2.2]octan‐2‐one in a favorable chemical yield and stereoselectivity (>19:1 dr and 97% ee) starting from 1,3‐indanedione, an enal, and cyclohexenone in the presence of a primary amine organocatalyst.magnified image

AbstractDespite impressive recent advances in the synthesis of lead chalcogenide solid nanoparticles, there are no examples of lead chalcogenide hollow nanoparticles (HNPs) with controlled diameter and shell thickness as current synthetic approaches for HNPs have inherent limitations associated with their complexity, inability to precisely control the dimensions, and limited possibilities with regard to applicable materials. Herein, we report on an unconventional strategy for crafting uniform lead chalcogenide (PbS and PbTe) HNPs with tailorable size, surface chemistry, and near‐IR absorption. Amphiphilic star‐like triblock copolymers [polystyrene‐block‐poly(acrylic acid)‐block‐polystyrene and polystyrene‐block‐poly(acrylic acid)‐block‐poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene)] were rationally synthesized and exploited as nanoreactors for the formation of uniform PbS and PbTe HNPs. Compared to their solid counterparts, the near‐IR absorption of the HNPs is blue‐shifted owing to the hollow interior. This strategy can be readily extended to other types of intriguing low‐band‐gap HNPs for diverse applications.

Published: July 2017

AbstractNeutral mesoionic carbenes (MICs) have emerged as an important class of carbene, however they are found in the free form or ligated to only a few d‐block ions. Unprecedented f‐block MIC complexes [M(N′′)3{CN(Me)C(Me)N(Me)CH}] (M=U, Y, La, Nd; N′′=N(SiMe3)2) are reported. These complexes were prepared by a formal 1,4‐proton migration reaction when the metal triamides [M(N′′)3] were treated with the N‐heterocyclic olefin H2C=C(NMeCH)2, which constitutes a new, general way to prepare MIC complexes. Quantum chemical calculations on the 5f3 uranium(III) complex suggest the presence of a U=C donor‐acceptor bond, composed of a MIC→U σ‐component and a U(5f)→MIC(2p) π‐back‐bond, but for the d0f0 Y and La and 4f3 Nd congeners only MIC→M σ‐bonding is found. Considering the generally negligible π‐acidity of MICs, this is surprising and highlights that greater consideration should possibly be given to recognizing MICs as potential π‐acid ligands when coordinated to strongly reducing metals.

Published: July 2017

AbstractThe design and synthesis of highly efficient deep red (DR) and near‐infrared (NIR) organic emitting materials with characteristic of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) still remains a great challenge. A strategy was developed to construct TADF organic solid films with strong DR or NIR emission feature. The triphenylamine (TPA) and quinoxaline‐6,7‐dicarbonitrile (QCN) were employed as electron donor (D) and acceptor (A), respectively, to synthesize a TADF compound, TPA‐QCN. The TPA‐QCN molecule with orange‐red emission in solution was employed as a dopant to prepare DR and NIR luminescent solid thin films. The high doped concentration and neat films exhibited efficient DR and NIR emissions, respectively. The highly efficient DR and NIR organic light‐emitting devices (OLEDs) were fabricated by regulating TPA‐QCN dopant concentration in the emitting layers.

AbstractA series of robust N‐heterocyclic carbene palladacycles have been successfully developed. These showed high catalytic activity and selectivity toward the challenging amination of N‐heteroaryl chlorides. Different primary and secondary amines were fully compatible with this catalytic system. Remarkably, no double amination products could be detected when primary amines were utilized in our catalytic transformation. Furthermore, the protocol has been successfully extended to synthesize rosiglitazone, a clinical drug for diabetes mellitus, highlighting its potential pharmaceutical feasibility.
