Artist’s Statement: Unmercenary Paul, the Good Samaritan
Authors: Torres Iglesias, OP Cristóbal 
Published: February 2023

The image on the cover of this book depicts “Unmercenary Paul,” enlightened and healed by Christ, the divine human Outsider and brother who restores in him the divine likeness. Paul’s response is to go and do likewise, so that he becomes a sacramental sign of the divine therapy of the Incarnation. Just as Christ the Good Samaritan nourished Paul with His own Body and Blood the medicine of immortality so too Paul the anargyros humbly and lavishly offered medicine to those without silver or gold.

Background: Internal mammary lymph nodes (IMNs) are a potential site of metastasis for breast cancer. Targeting IMNs as part of a comprehensive regional nodal irradiation comes at the cost of higher unwanted doses to critical nearby organs at risk. Thus, the efficacy and safety of different radiotherapy techniques for the coverage of this area remain elusive. Objectives: We present a dosimetric comparison between partially wide tangents (PWT) and direct photon/electron (P/E) portals in terms of target volume coverage and normal tissue sparing. Methods: Patients with left-sided breast cancer, who were referred to our clinic for post-lumpectomy or post-mastectomy radiotherapy, underwent computed tomography (CT) simulation. The left breast and IMNs, heart, lung, right breast, and esophagus were contoured. Dosimetric comparisons were based on dose-volume histograms (DVHs) generated for all of the aforementioned organs. A subgroup analysis was also performed based on patients’ type of surgical treatment. Results: A total of 30 patients (10 with breast conserving surgery and 20 with modified radical mastectomy) were included. The P/E plan provided a higher coverage of the left breast (P-value of CTV V105%: < 0.001) and IMNs with a P-value of 0.087 regarding the mean dose received by IMNs, and also less volume of the heart (P-value of Heart V30Gy: 0.021), and lungs (P-value of Lung V20Gy: 0.003) were irradiated. However, these advantages came at the cost of a higher dose to the esophagus and right breast and more hotspots compared to the PWT technique. Conclusions: The P/E technique had advantages regarding target volume coverage and toxicity regardless of the type of surgery. Based on the results of this study, overall, the P/E portal is superior to the PWT for radiotherapy of breast cancer with internal mammary node inclusion. However, the appropriate treatment plan should be decided on a case-by-case basis.

BackgroundTilapia is a primary aquaculture fish in Thailand, but little is known about the occurrence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) inAeromonas hydrophila,Salmonellaspp., andVibrio choleraecolonizing healthy tilapia intended for human consumption and the co-occurrence of these AMR bacteria in the cultivation water.MethodsThis study determined the phenotype and genotype of AMR, extended-spectrumβ-lactamase (ESBL) production, and virulence factors ofA. hydrophila,Salmonellaspp., andV. choleraeisolated from hybrid red tilapia and cultivation water in Thailand. Standard culture methods such as USFDA’s BAM or ISO procedures were used for the original isolation, with all isolates confirmed by biochemical tests, serotyping, and species-specific gene detection based on PCR.ResultsA total of 278 isolates consisting of 15A. hydrophila, 188Salmonellaspp., and 75V. choleraeisolates were retrieved from a previous study. All isolates ofA. hydrophilaandSalmonellaisolates were resistance to at least one antimicrobial, with 26.7% and 72.3% of the isolates being multidrug resistant (MDR), respectively. AllA. hydrophilaisolates were resistant to ampicillin (100%), followed by oxytetracycline (26.7%), tetracycline (26.7%), trimethoprim (26.7%), and oxolinic acid (20.0%). The predominant resistance genes inA. hydrophilaweremcr-3(20.0%), followed by 13.3% of isolates havingfloR,qnrS,sul1,sul2, anddfrA1. Salmonellaisolates also exhibited a high prevalence of resistance to ampicillin (79.3%), oxolinic acid (75.5%), oxytetracycline (71.8%), chloramphenicol (62.8%), and florfenicol (55.3%). The most common resistance genes in theseSalmonellaisolates wereqnrS(65.4%),tetA(64.9%),blaTEM(63.8%), andfloR(55.9%). AllV. choleraeisolates were susceptible to all antimicrobials tested, while the most common resistance gene wassul1(12.0%). One isolate ofA. hydrophilawas positive forint1, while all isolates ofSalmonellaandV. choleraeisolates were negative for integrons andintSXT. None of the bacterial isolates in this study were producing ESBL. The occurrence ofmcr-3(20.0%) in these isolates from tilapia aquaculture may signify a serious occupational and consumer health risk given that colistin is a last resort antimicrobial for treatment of Gram-negative bacteria infections.ConclusionsFindings from this study on AMR bacteria in hybrid red tilapia suggest that aquaculture as practiced in Thailand can select for ubiquitous AMR pathogens, mobile genetic elements, and an emerging reservoir ofmcrand colistin-resistant bacteria. Resistant and pathogenic bacteria, such as resistance to ampicillin and tetracycline, or MDRSalmonellacirculating in aquaculture, together highlight the public health concerns and foodborne risks of zoonotic pathogens in humans from cultured freshwater fish.
Synthesis of Water‐Soluble Retinol Derivatives by Enzymatic Method
Authors: Maugard Thierry , Rejasse Barbara , Legoy Marie Dominique 
Published: July 2002

AbstractRetinoids (vitamin A and derivatives) are of great commercial potential in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals such as skin care products. However, the clinical effectiveness of these retinoids is limited by skin irritation, water insolubility, and except for retinyl‐esters, extreme instability. In this paper, an enzymatic method for preparing water‐soluble retinol derivatives catalyzed by immobilized lipase is described. The synthesis is based on a unique strategy of two‐step enzymatic acylation. Among the different synthesized compounds, the most water‐soluble are the disaccharide derivatives such as saccharose retinyl adipate (nonionic water‐soluble retinol derivative) and the sodium salt of retinyl diacids such as retinyl succinate sodium salt (ionic water‐soluble retinol derivative).
Enzymes, Energy, and the Environment: A Strategic Perspective on the U.S. Department of Energy's Research and Development Activities for Bioethanol
Authors: Sheehan John , Himmel Michael 
Published: July 2002

AbstractFor well over one hundred years, researchers around the world have pursued ways to make ethanol from biomass such as wood, grasses, and waste materials. To distinguish it from ethanol made from starch and sugars in traditional agricultural crops, we refer to ethanol made from biomass as “bioethanol.” The effort to develop bioethanol technology gained significant momentum in the late 1970s as a result of the energy crises that occurred in that decade. This article briefly reviews the broader history of bioethanol technology development. With this as a background, we focus our attention on the strategic thinking behind the U.S. Department of Energy's Bioethanol Program, which envisions remarkable advances in cellulase enzyme research and as the basis for significant future process cost reductions.

OBJECTIVEPatients with adult growth hormone (GH) deficiency are thought to be of increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Impaired vascular reactivity to endothelium derived nitric oxid (NO) is an early event in the development of atherosclerosis. In order to detect a possible effect of GH on vascular endothelium we examined forearm vasodilator responses in 8 patients with adult GH‐deficiency before and after 3 months GH replacement therapy.METHODSForearm blood flow studies were performed using venous occlusion plethysmography. Blood flow was measured at baseline and during intra‐arterial infusions of 3 cumulative doses (7.5, 15 and 30 μg/minutes) of acetylcholine chloride and of sodium nitroprusside (1, 3 and 10 μg/minutes). Fasting blood samples were collected for measurement of lipid profile, Haemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), glucose, IGF‐I and insulin.RESULTSGH replacement therapy significantly increased IGF‐I concentrations and tended to increase fasting insulin concentrations (IGF‐I: 72.7 ± 12.4 vs. 130.8 ± 18.5 μg/l, P < 0.001; fasting insulin: 14.3 ± 3.4 vs. 32.9 ± 18.6, mU/l, P = 0.06). Fasting lipid profile, glucose and HbA1C did not significantly change. Blood flow responses to acetylcholine were significantly greater after GH replacement therapy (10.3 ± 1.0 vs. 17.6 ± 2.5 ml/minutes/100 ml for the highest dose, P < 0.03). There was a strong tendency to increased blood flow response to nitroprusside after GH therapy (10.7 ± 1.2 vs. 17.5 ± 1.7 ml/minutes/100 ml for the highest dose, P = 0.06).CONCLUSIONThese findings suggest that GH replacement therapy may have a beneficial effect on endothelium function which is independent of quantitative changes in fasting lipid profile.
pH and solubility of aluminium in acidic forest soils: a consequence of reactions between organic acidity and aluminium alkalinity
Authors: Skyllberg U. 
Published: July 2002

SummaryData from two Podzol O and E horizons, sampled in 1‐cm layers at 13 points within 2 m × 2 m plots, were used to test the hypothesis that the composition of hydrogen ions (H) and aluminium (Al) adsorbed to the solid‐phase soil organic matter (SOM) determines pH and Al solubility in organic‐rich acidic forest soils. Organically adsorbed Al was extracted sequentially with 0.5 mCuCl2and organically adsorbed H was determined as the difference between total acidity titrated to pH 8.2 and Al extracted in 0.5 mCuCl2. The quotient between fractions of SOM sites binding Al and H (NAl/NH) is shown to determine the variation in pH and Al solubility. It is furthermore shown that models in which pH and Al solubility are linked via a pH‐dependent solubility of an Al hydroxide and in which cation exchange between Al3+and Ca2+, rather than cation exchange between Al3+and H+, is the main pH‐buffering process cannot be used to simulate pH or Al solubility in O and E horizons. The fraction of SOM sites adsorbing Al increased by depth in the lower O and throughout the E horizon at the same magnitude as sites adsorbing H decreased. The fraction of sites binding the cations Ca2+ + Mg2+ + K+ + Na+remained constant. It is suggested that a net reaction between Al silicates (proton acceptors) and protonated functional groups in SOM (proton donors) is the long‐term chemical process determining the composition of organically adsorbed H and Al in the lower part of the O and in the E horizon of Podzols. Thus, in the long term, pH and Al solubility are determined by the interaction between organic acidity and Al alkalinity.
Repeating triplets of spikes and oscillations in the mitral cell discharges of freely breathing rats

Published: July 2002

AbstractThe olfactory bulb responses to odours display evident temporal organization, both in the form of high‐frequency oscillations and precisely replicating triplets of spikes. In this study, the frequency of replicating triplets in a sample of 118 individual responses from 45 cells was compared with that in simulations of non‐homogeneous Poisson processes, constructed from the experimental post‐stimulus time histograms (PSTHs). In a large majority of the records, replicating triplets (to a precision of 0.5 ms) are found to be more numerous in the physiological records; in some of them, they are ∼ 10 times more abundant. An excess of precisely replicating triplets is also found in records where no oscillations are apparent in the autocorrelograms. Triplet replication thus seems a more robust phenomenon than transient oscillation. Not unlike fast oscillations observed in other preparations, replicating triplets produced by a given mitral cell are generally observed only during a restricted period of time of the respiratory cycle (at least in the case of the responses under olfactory stimulation). No relation was found, however, between the nature and strength of the olfactory stimulus and the frequency of replicating patterns. In the absence of olfactory stimulation, some mitral cell discharges also contain more replicating triplets than the non‐homogeneous Poisson simulations. Thus, replicating triplets in single‐cell discharges seem to play only an indirect role in the coding of olfactory information at the mitral cell output level.
The accuracy of the frequency–volume chart: comparison of self‐reported and measured volumes
Authors: PalnÆS Hansen  , Klarskov  
Published: July 2002

Objective To assess the accuracy of frequency–volume charts recorded by patients with voiding symptoms by comparing self‐reported voiding data with the volumes of urine collected in same period.Patients and methods The study comprised 18 patients (median age 63 years, range 20–80) and lasted 3 days, during which the patients recorded their fluid intake and voided volumes, and collected 24 h urine samples.Results The recorded volumes exceeded or underestimated the collected volume in 49% and 51%, respectively, of the samples, but the agreement between the accumulated daily voiding volumes on the charts and the volumes collected was acceptable. The median difference between volumes recorded on the charts and collected as samples was 100 (0–1450) mL per 24 h or 10 (0–117) mL per voiding (not significant). The median daily variation of creatinine in the urine was 1.1 (0.1–9.4) mmol (not significant), indicating that the 24 h collection periods were respected.Conclusion Recordings on frequency–volume charts are valid and useful in the investigation of patients with voiding symptoms.
Catalytic decomposition of formic acid on Ru(001): Transient measurements
Authors: Sun Y.-K. , Weinberg W. H. 
Published: July 2002

The kinetics of decomposition of formic acid on Ru(001) have been investigated with thermal desorption mass spectrometry following the adsorption of DCOOH and HCOOH at both 130 and 305 K. Formic acid chemisorbs dissociatively on the perfect (001) surface via O–H bond cleavage to form a formate and a hydrogen adatom, and at defect (step) sites on the surface via C–O bond cleavage to form CO, a hydrogen adatom and a hydroxyl. The saturation fractional coverage of the dissociatively chemisorbed formic acid is approximately 0.33 following adsorption at 130 K, and approximately 0.49 following adsorption at 305 K. Thermal desorption spectra of CO2 are a direct probe of the kinetics of C–H bond cleavage of the formate and are characterized by a kinetic isotope effect (C–H vs C–D bond cleavage), a progressively narrowing peak width, and an upward shift in peak temperature with increasing surface coverage of the formate.The latter indicates an increasing apparent activation energy for the C–H bond cleavage reaction with increasing formate coverage, which results in self-accelerating decomposition kinetics that cause the observed sharp peak in the production of CO2. Although the activation energy for the C–H bond cleavage reaction varies strongly with the formate coverage, the relative yields of CO2 and CO are independent of the formate coverage and are in a ratio of 1:1. This observation, together with the observation that the formation of HDO and D2O, which results from C–O bond cleavage of the formate, appears at approximately the same temperature as that of CO2 formation following saturation adsorption of DCOOH at both 130 and 305 K, prove that cleavage of the C–D and C–O bonds of the formate are not two independent reaction pathways.A novel mechanism for the reaction is postulated which involves the hydrogen from the C–H bond cleavage reaction in one formate (producing carbon dioxide) reacting with an adjacent formate to form a hydroxyl and formyl. The latter react to form the other observed products: carbon monoxide, and a mixture of water and molecular hydrogen, with some chemisorbed oxygen remaining on the surface. The increase in the activation energy for decomposition of the formate with increasing formate coverage is due to the fact that a chemisorbed formate is stabilized by the presence of another nearby formate.
