description: The role of hedgehog pathway in the biology of pancreatic adenocarcinoma is an emerging area of investigation and provides a novel field for treatment intervention. Recent studies have shown the activation of the hedgehog pathway in pancreatic cancer. Despite the initial assumption of an autocrine mechanism, it seems that the hedgehog pathway contributes to the molecular conversation between tumor and its microenvironment through a paracrine loop. Furthermore, members of the hedgehog pathway crosstalk with other pathways; they regulate tumor angiogenesis and are associated with cancer stem cells. In addition, there is preclinical evidence about the efficiency of hedgehog inhibitors both in vitro and in vivo and the first clinical trials with those compounds in the treatment of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, are already under way.

description: Manganites are technologically important materials, used widely as solid oxide fuel cell cathodes: they have also been shown to exhibit electroresistance. Oxygen bulk diffusion and surface exchange processes are critical for catalytic action, and numerous studies of manganites have linked electroresistance to electrochemical oxygen migration. Direct imaging of individual oxygen defects is needed to underpin understanding of these important processes. It is not currently possible to collect the required images in the bulk, but scanning tunnelling microscopy could provide such data for surfaces. Here we show the first atomic resolution images of oxygen defects at a manganite surface. Our experiments also reveal defect dynamics, including oxygen adatom migration, vacancy-adatom recombination and adatom bistability. Beyond providing an experimental basis for testing models describing the microscopics of oxygen migration at transition metal oxide interfaces, our work resolves the long-standing puzzle of why scanning tunnelling microscopy is more challenging for layered manganites than for cuprates.

description: Our aim is to identify and classify mean-motion resonances (MMRs) for the coplanar circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP) for mass ratios between 0.10 and 0.50. Our methods include the maximum Lyapunov exponent, which is used as an indicator for the location of the resonances, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) used for determining what kind of resonances are present, and the inspection of the orbital elements to classify the periodicity. We show that the 2:1 resonance occurs the most frequently. Among other resonances, the 3:1 resonance is the second most common, and furthermore both 3:2 and 5:3 resonances occur more often than the 4:1 resonance. Moreover, the resonances in the coplanar CR3BP are classified based on the behaviour of the orbits. We show that orbital stability is ensured for high values of resonance (i.e., high ratios) where only a single resonance is present. The resonances attained are consistent with the previously established resonances for the Solar System, i.e., specifically, in regards to the asteroid belt. Previous work employed digital filtering and Lyapunov characteristic exponents to determine stochasticity of the eccentricity, which is found to be consistent with our usage of Lyapunov exponents as an alternate approach based on varying the mass ratio instead of the eccentricity. Our results are expected to be of principal interest to future studies, including augmentations to observed or proposed resonances, of extra-solar planets in binary stellar systems.

description: Context Increased levels of circulating fatty acids deriving from over-nutrition are thought to contribute to the progressive beta-cell failure associated with type 2 diabetes. Pancreatic beta-cells in culture are sensitive to exposure to long-chain saturated fatty acids (e.g. palmitate) which cause cytotoxicity, whereas the monounsaturated equivalents (e.g. palmitoleate) are cytoprotective. Objectives In this study we sought to determine whether of members of the hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF) family of transcription factors, which are mutated in familial, young-onset, monogenic beta-cell diabetes, could play a role in fatty acid-mediated cytotoxicity in cultured beta-cells. Design We used real-time PCR to determine whether hepatocyte nuclear factor gene expression was altered in response to palmitate exposure in the BRIN-BD11 beta-cell line. Results We found that the Hnf isoforms expressed in BRIN-BD11 cells are dysregulated by palmitate exposure. The expression of Hnf1b is specifically reduced by exposure to palmitate, and this response is prevented by co-incubation with palmitoleate. Conclusions Down-regulation of Hnf1b gene expression accompanies palmitate-mediated cytotoxicity in cultured beta-cells.

description: We investigate a non-equilibrium ionization state and an electron-ion two-temperature structure of the intracluster medium in the merging galaxy cluster, 1E0657-56 (the Bullet cluster), using a series of N-body and hydrodynamic simulations. We find that the electron temperature at the shock layer associated with the X-ray sub peak (bullet) is quite different depending on the thermal relaxation model between electrons and ions; ~25 keV for the Coulomb thermal relaxation model and ~45 keV for the instantaneous thermal relaxation model in the simulations which reproduce the observed X-ray morphology. Furthermore, both of Fe xxv and Fe xxvi are overabundant compared with the ionization equilibrium state around the shock layer, and thus, the intensity ratio between Fe xxv and Fe xxvi K alpha lines are significantly altered from that in the ionization equilibrium state. We also carry out the simulations with various sets of merger parameters, and discuss a possible range of the non-equilibrium effects in this system. Our results could be tested with future X-ray observations such as Astro-H with better sensitivity in high energy band.

description: Context Dietary proteins and amino acids can modulate pancreatic function. Objective Our aim was to estimate the levels of plasma amino acids in chronic pancreatitis patients and study their relationship with disease characteristics as well as exocrine and endocrine insufficiency. Patients One hundred and seventy-five consecutive adult patients with chronic pancreatitis: 84 patients with alcoholic chronic pancreatitis and 91 patients with tropical chronic pancreatitis. One hundred and thirteen healthy controls were also studied. Design Prospective study. Main output measures Disease characteristics and imaging features were recorded. Plasma-free amino acid levels were estimated using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Polyclonal antibody ELISA was used to assess pancreatic fecal elastase-1. Results The majority of the plasma free amino acid levels decreased in chronic pancreatitis patients whereas glutamate, glycine, proline and lysine were elevated as compared to the controls. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the decrease in branched chain amino acid concentration was significantly associated with the presence of diabetes and low fecal elastase-1. In addition, a significant positive correlation was observed between branched chain amino acids and pancreatic elastase-1 (rs=0.724, P<0.001). Conclusion Reductions of plasma amino acid levels are seen in chronic pancreatitis, particularly sulphur containing amino acids and branched chain amino acids. Selective amino acid deficiencies seem to correlate with exocrine and endocrine insufficiency.

description: Context Severe acute pancreatitis is associated with high mortality with infectious complications being the most common cause of mortality. Objective To analyze the prevalence and characteristics of pancreatic and extrapancreatic infection in patients with severe acute pancreatitis. Design Prospective study over a one-year period. Patients Fifty-one consecutive patients with severe acute pancreatitis. Setting Tertiary care centre, Northern India. Main outcome measures The presence of pancreatic and extrapancreatic infections were noted in consecutive patients with severe acute pancreatitis and their effect on disease outcome was assessed. Results Pancreatic infection was noted in 19 (37.3%) patients; 14 (27.5%) patients had monomicrobial and 5 (9.8%) patients had polymicrobial infections. In the first week of hospitalization, all positive 6/6 (100%) cultures grew Escherichia coli, in the second week 5/8 (62.5%) grew Escherichia coli while after the second week, 2/5 (40.0%) cultures grew Escherichia coli. A total of 32 (62.7%) patients had evidence of extrapancreatic infections, with 53 positive cultures. Fifteen (29.4%) patients had monomicrobial infections while 17 (33.3%) had polymicrobial infections. The most common site was blood together with intravenous site with 21 positive cultures in 16 patients. Staphylococcus aureus was most commonly isolated in the blood cultures. There was a statistically significant increase in mortality with pancreatic (P=0.003) and extrapancreatic (P=0.041) infections. The antibiotic sensitivity pattern showed that most of the bacteria were sensitive to beta lactum antibiotics, aminoglycosides and imipenem. Conclusion Pancreatic infections are more often monomicrobial with a shift from gram-negative to gram-positive as the pancreatitis progressed. Extrapancreatic infections are more often polymicrobial; most commonly, the blood stream is invaded by gram-positive bacteria.

description: We use SDO/HMI and SOLIS/VSM photospheric magnetic field measurements to model the force-free coronal field above a solar active region, assuming magnetic forces to dominate. We take measurement uncertainties caused by, e.g., noise and the particular inversion technique into account. After searching for the optimum modeling parameters for the particular data sets, we compare the resulting nonlinear force-free model fields. We show the degree of agreement of the coronal field reconstructions from the different data sources by comparing the relative free energy content, the vertical distribution of the magnetic pressure and the vertically integrated current density. Though the longitudinal and transverse magnetic flux measured by the VSM and HMI is clearly different, we find considerable similarities in the modeled fields. This indicates the robustness of the algorithm we use to calculate the nonlinear force-free fields against differences and deficiencies of the photospheric vector maps used as an input. We also depict how much the absolute values of the total force-free, virial and the free magnetic energy differ and how the orientation of the longitudinal and transverse components of the HMI- and VSM-based model volumes compares to each other.

description: We present a new numerical scheme to study systems of non-convex, irregular, and punctured particles in an efficient manner. We employ this method to analyze regular packings of odd-shaped bodies, not only from a nanoparticle but also both from a computational geometry perspective. Besides determining close-packed structures for many shapes, we also discover a new denser configuration for Truncated Tetrahedra. Moreover, we consider recently synthesized nanoparticles and colloids, where we focus on the excluded volume interactions, to show the applicability of our method in the investigation of their crystal structures and phase behavior. Extensions to the presented scheme include the incorporation of soft particle-particle interactions, the study of quasicrystalline systems, and random packings.

description: Context Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has been implicated in the etiopathogenesis of various malignant conditions. Notwithstanding, its etiological association with pancreatic cancer remains inconclusive. Studies focusing on the relationship between H. pylori infection and pancreatic cancer risk have yielded conflicting results. Objective The aim of this study was to obtain a reliable estimate of the risk of H. pylori infection in causing pancreatic cancer, by performing a meta-analysis of the existing observational studies evaluating the association. Methods/Statistics Observational studies comparing the prevalence of H. pylori infection in patients with pancreatic cancer and healthy controls, conducted in adult populations and published in all languages, were identified through systematic search in the MEDLINE and EMBASE up to April 2010. H. pylori infection was confirmed by serological testing using an antigen-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Pooled adjusted odds ratios (AOR) and associated 95% confidence intervals (CI) were obtained by using a DerSimonian and Laird random-effects model. Results Six studies involving a total of 2,335 patients met our eligibility criteria. A significant association between H. pylori seropositivity and development of pancreatic cancer (AOR 1.38, 95% CI: 1.08-1.75; P=0.009) was seen. No significant association was seen on pooled analysis of the three studies assessing the relationship between cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA) positivity and pancreatic cancer. A cumulative meta-analysis suggested a reducing, albeit statistically significant association as the evidence was accumulated. Conclusions The pooled data suggests an association between infection with H. pylori and the development of pancreatic cancer. Further research is needed to confirm our findings.

description: Context With patients surviving longer after pancreatic resection, the challenges now is the management of the unresolved longer-term issues. Case report A 53-year-old woman with painless obstructive jaundice, underwent a pylorous preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy for a pT3N0M0 ampullary adenocarcinoma in 2001 (patchy chronic pancreatitis with mucinous metaplasia of background pancreatic duct epithelium and acinar atrophy were noted). Despite adjuvant chemotherapy, at month 54 she required a pulmonary wedge resection for metastatic adenocarcinoma, followed by a pulmonary relapse at 76 months when she underwent 6 neoadjuvant cycles of gemcitabine/capecitabine and a left pneumonectomy. Finally 7 years after the initial Whipple’s, a single 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) avid pancreatic tail lesion led to completion pancreatectomy for a well-differentiated ductal adenocarcinoma with clear resection margins albeit peripancreatic adipose tissue infiltration. On review all resected tumour cells had identical immunophenotype (CK7+/CK20-/MUC1+/MUC2-) as that of the primary. She is currently asymptomatic on follow-up. Conclusions These findings suggest that in selected cases even in the presence of pulmonary metastasis, repeat resections could result in long-term survival of patients with metachronous ampullary cancer. Second, even ampullary tumours maybe should be regarded as index tumors in the presence of ductal precursor lesions in the resection specimen. Three distant metastases, particularly if long after the initial tumour, should instigate a search for metachronous tumour, especially in the presence of field change in the initial specimen. Risk-adapted follow-up protocols with recognition of such factors could result in cost-effective surveillance and potentially improved outcomes.

description: We present a simple micromanipulation technique to transfer suspended graphene flakes onto any substrate and to assemble them with small localized gates into mechanical resonators. The mechanical motion of the graphene is detected using an electrical, radio-frequency (RF) reflection readout scheme where the time-varying graphene capacitor reflects a RF carrier at f=5-6 GHz producing modulation sidebands at f +/- fm. A mechanical resonance frequency up to fm=178 MHz is demonstrated. We find both hardening/softening Duffing effects on different samples, and obtain a critical amplitude of ~40 pm for the onset of nonlinearity in graphene mechanical resonators. Measurements of the quality factor of the mechanical resonance as a function of DC bias voltage Vdc indicate that dissipation due to motion-induced displacement currents in graphene electrode is important at high frequencies and large Vdc.

description: Context Thyroid metastasis from pancreatic adenocarcinoma is extremely rare, with only two previous cases in the literature. We report a case of pancreatic adenocarcinoma metastasising to the thyroid. We review the incidence, diagnosis, and management of this rare occurrence. Case report A 38-year-old man with a synchronous 6-month history of thyroid swelling, presented with epigastric pain and signs of obstructive jaundice. He was investigated by abdominal computerised tomography and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. The diagnosis of pancreatic neoplasm was made. His thyroid neoplasm was investigated at another tertiary centre and thought to be a papillary neoplasm. He underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy and recovered well post-operatively. Eight weeks later he had a total thyroidectomy. Histology confirmed that the thyroid mass was both morphologically and immunophenotypically similar to the pancreatic neoplasm. Conclusion This case demonstrates the importance of a full investigation when a patient with suspected neoplastic history presents with a thyroid nodule. We outline the crucial role that immunohistochemistry plays in detecting and classifying primary and secondary thyroid neoplasms. The detection of a solitary thyroid metastasis from pancreatic adenocarcinoma may indicate a poor prognosis, and it is debatable whether resection of the primary should be undertaken when it presents with a solitary metastasis.

description: Abstract
Muhammad Purbaja. 2022. Dissertation of the Doctoral Study Program in Law, Diponegoro University, Semarang. Looking for the ideal form of sole proprietorship in business activities in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to analyze: 1) How is the dynamics of individual business forms (Sole proprietorship) made the choice of many business actors in carrying out their business activities, especially from the aspects of advantages and disadvantages of choosing individual business forms in Indonesia?, 2) Are existing regulations capable enough to regulate and accommodate various basic characteristics of individual business entities compared to other business forms?, 3) What is the ideal arrangement of an individual business entity in Indonesia? The research method used is empirical juridical with a statutory approach, concept approach, and case studies. The results show that: 1) The emergence of Indonesian entrepreneurs can be the starting point for the movement of the Indonesian economy in a better direction. People's mindset about entrepreneurship gradually began to grow. Emerging jobs will certainly absorb labor. Indonesia is a country with a high population. Entrepreneurship in labor-intensive sectors is what is needed in Indonesia so that people's welfare can increase and can reduce unemployment and be able to increase the growth rate and economic welfare in Indonesia. 2) Establishment of an Individual Company is allowed to establish an individual company other than the individual company that is already owned. This establishment can only be done after a certain period of time after the establishment or ratification of the previous individual company legal entity. The minimum authorized capital of the company is handed over to the founders or shareholders as stated in the company's deed of establishment. When it comes to the form of a business entity, the agreement between the founders is the initial form of an association. The association then became the initial form of various forms of business entities. 3) Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation (hereinafter referred to as the Job Creation Law) in which one of the clusters amends and adds provisions in the Law on PT. The Job Creation Law is expected to increase new jobs and increase domestic and foreign investment in Indonesia by streamlining statutory provisions.

description: We study the strong gravitational lensing system number 5 identified by the CASSOWARY survey. In this system, a source at redshift 1.069 is lensed into four detected images by two early-type galaxies at redshift 0.388. The observed positions of the multiple images are well reproduced by a model in which the total mass distribution of the deflector is described in terms of two singular isothermal sphere profiles. By modelling the lens galaxy spectral energy distributions, we measure the lens luminous masses and stellar mass-to-light ratios. These values are used to disentangle the luminous and dark matter components in the vicinity of the multiple images. We estimate that the dark over total mass ratio projected within a cylinder centred on the primary lens and with a radius of 12.6 kpc is 0.8 +/- 0.1. We contrast these measurements with the typical values found at similar distances (in units of the effective radius) in isolated lens galaxies and show that the amount of dark matter present in these lens galaxies is almost a factor four larger than in field lens galaxies with comparable luminous masses. Data and models are therefore consistent with interpreting the lens of this system as a galaxy group. We infer that the overdense environment and dark matter concentration in these galaxies must have affected the assembly of the lens luminous mass components. We conclude that further multi-diagnostics analyses on the internal properties of galaxy groups have the potential of providing us a unique insight into the complex baryonic and dark-matter physics interplay that rules the formation of cosmological structures.

description: Context Thrombocytopenia associated multiple organ failure is a rare but increasingly recognized condition in children. Diabetic ketoacidosis preceding thrombocytopenia associated multiple organ failure is previously unreported in pediatric patients. Case report A 12-year-old female presented with diabetic ketoacidosis along with acute pancreatitis. She further developed thrombocytopenia and renal failure over the next two days. Although hemolytic uremic syndrome/thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura spectrum was considered, the clinical picture seemed most consistent with thrombocytopenia associated multiple organ failure. The patient was treated with serial therapeutic plasma exchanges and made a complete recovery. Conclusion A high index of suspicion of thrombocytopenia associated multiple organ failure is required in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis or pancreatitis who present with thrombocytopenia and renal failure. Plasma exchange is a life-saving intervention in such cases.

Despite EUS-FNA and CEA level measurement, the diagnosis of a premalignant cyst may remain uncertain. Case report We report two cases of incidentally found pancreatic cysts where initial EUS-FNA cyst aspirates yielded thin fluid with very low CEA levels. Repeat aspirations one year later revealed markedly different results (slightly viscous fluid with significantly elevated CEA levels) which prompted surgical resection in both cases. Final surgical pathology revealed mucinous cystic neoplasms. Conclusion Pancreatic cyst fluid CEA levels may increase over time, possibly due to neoplastic progression. A heightened index of suspicion for a neoplastic cyst should remain in the appropriate patient population, despite conflicting data. In cases of initial low aspirate CEA levels, we recommend a repeat EUS-FNA at a later date to exclude a premalignant lesion.

Breakdown for the Camassa-Holm Equation Using Decay Criteria and Persistence in Weighted Spaces
Creators: name: Brandolese, Lorenzo
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We exhibit a sufficient condition in terms of decay at infinity of the initial data for the finite time blowup of strong solutions to the Camassa--Holm equation: a wave breaking will occur as soon as the initial data decay faster at infinity than the solitons. In the case of data decaying slower than solitons we provide persistence results for the solution in weighted $L^p$-spaces, for a large class of moderate weights. Explicit asymptotic profiles illustrate the optimality of these results.

description: Each and every person in the world has a different mindset about investing their money in different sources of investments. In this situation human mindset, the behavioural activities play an important part in the investment decision. This study going to examine one of the investment opportunities available for Jaffna District investors in the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE). This study pursued to determine the impact levels of behavioural influences on the individual investor adoptions of securities at the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE). It was directed by the main objective seeking to determine the impact level of behavioural factors on the individual investors' investment decisions at CSE special reference to the Jaffna district. To meet the objectives of the study, Behavioural factors are considered as the independent variable with the proxies of regret aversion, overconfidence, availability bias, past trends of the stock, market information, buying and selling of other investors, and individual investors' decision is the dependent variable. Primary data was collected using self-administrated questionnaires. It was based on the sample of 165 individuals selected through the CSE Jaffna district The data analysis for this study was performed with the help of SPSS. This study used multiple regression and correlation analysis. There is one main hypothesis and six sub-hypotheses were considered for this study. It was tested at a 5% significant level. The findings revealed that the overconfidence, availability bias, and past trends of stock have insignificant impacts on the investment decision of individual investors at CSE in the Jaffna district. The regret aversion, market information, and buying and selling of other investors have a significant impact on the investment decisions of individual investors at CSE in the Jaffna district. The ultimate finding of the study was that there is an ascetically significant impact of investors' behavioral factors influence on individual investors' investment decisions at Jaffna District CSE Sri Lanka.

description: Simultaneously probing the electronic structure and morphology of materials at the nanometer or atomic scale while a chemical reaction proceeds is significant for understanding the underlying reaction mechanisms and optimizing a materials design. This is especially important in the study of nanoparticle catalysts, yet such experiments have rarely been achieved. Utilizing an environmental transmission electron microscope (ETEM) equipped with a differentially pumped gas cell, we are able to conduct nanoscopic imaging and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) in situ for cobalt catalysts under reaction conditions. Analysis revealed quantitative correlation of the cobalt valence states to the particles' nanoporous structures. The in situ experiments were performed on nanoporous cobalt particles coated with silica while a 15 mTorr hydrogen environment was maintained at various temperatures (300-600\degreeC). When the nanoporous particles were reduced, the valence state changed from cobalt oxide to metallic cobalt and concurrent structural coarsening was observed. In situ mapping of the valence state and the corresponding nanoporous structures allows quantitatively analysis necessary for understanding and improving the mass activity and lifetime of cobalt-based catalysts, i.e., for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis that converts carbon monoxide and hydrogen into fuels, and uncovering the catalyst optimization mechanisms.

Traumatic Transection of the Pancreas. A Case of Delayed Presentation
Creators: name: Levine, Rebecca A
name: Bank, Matthew A
Publisher: name: JOP. Journal of the Pancreas
Year: 2011
Subjects: Abscess; Pancreatectomy; Wounds and Injuries

description: Context Isolated traumatic injuries to the pancreas are extremely unusual and diagnosis may be difficult due to delay in presentation and subtlety of symptoms. Case report We describe a patient who presented 24 hours after sustaining blunt abdominal trauma and was found to have a complete pancreatic neck transection on computed tomography with no other injuries. The patient underwent a distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy which was complicated by a postoperative abscess on day 15. This was treated with percutaneous drainage and he has recovered well. Conclusion Pancreatic transection in the absence of associated injuries is rarely seen after blunt trauma but can result in devastating outcomes if left unrecognized. A high index of suspicion and early intervention are critical.

description: Objective: To know the feasibility of applying a model for predicting the risk of preeclampia in a second-level healthcare facility in Ecuador. Methods: Retrospective study of 304 patients with singleton pregnancy in which anthropometric, clinical and biophysical data from prenatal consultation were collected between 11 to 136 weeks from August 2018 to August 2019, to perform an external validation of the preeclampsia risk prediction algorithm of the Hospital Clinic de Barcelona. Results: A total of 26 patients with a high risk screening developed preeclampsia of which 24 (93%) were late-onset. The sample area under the model curve was 0.92 (95% CI). At the cut-off point 0.75 (3/4) of the late-onset preeclampsia risk prediction algorithm from hospital clinic in Barcelona, the detection rate obtained in patients at the Outpatient Surgical Clinical Center Hospital de Día Norte Tarqui, was 88.46%, with a false positive rate of 8.64%. In addition the specificity is 91.37%, the PPV 48.94% and the PNV 98.83%.
Conclusion: The combination of clinical parameters, mean blood pressure and the average pulsat rate of the uterine arteries is useful for predicting preeclampsia in the first trimester. The use of the predictive algorithm of the Hospital Clinic of Barcelona is feasible to use it in this unit.

description: Context Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are a recently classified pancreatic neoplasm with an increasing incidence. IPMN is often misdiagnosed as chronic pancreatitis because of symptoms of relapsing abdominal pain, pancreatitis, and steatorrhea and imaging findings of a dilated pancreatic duct of cystic lesions that are frequently confused with pseudocysts. Early recognition of IPMN allows for prompt surgical resection before malignant transformation. Case reports We report two cases of patients with long histories of chronic pancreatitis (more than 15 years) that went on to develop IPMN. Both patients presented with symptoms of abdominal pain, nausea, steatorrhoea and eventually weight loss. Biochemical and radiological findings were suggestive of chronic pancreatitis although no clear causes for this were identified. Both patients were followed up with multiple repeat scans with no reported sinister findings. Many years after the initial diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis, radiological investigations identified pathological changes suggestive of neoplastic development and histology confirmed IPMN. Conclusions The cases demonstrate the ongoing challenges in diagnosing and managing IPMN effectively; highlights the important aspects of epidemiology in differentiating chronic pancreatitis and IPMN; continues the discussion surrounding the relationship between IPMN and chronic pancreatitis.

description: Monolayer graphene with an energy gap presents a pseudospin symmetry broken ferromagnet with a perpendicular pseudomagnetization whose direction is switched by altering the type of doping between n and p. We demonstrate an electrical current switching effect in pseudospin version of a spin valve in which two pseudoferromagnetic regions are contacted through a normal graphene region. The proposed structure exhibits a pseudomagnetoresistance, defined as the relative difference of resistances of parallel and antiparallel alignments of the pseudomagnetizations, which can be tuned to unity. This perfect pseudomagnetic switching is found to show a strong robustness with respect to increasing of the contact length, the effect which we explain in terms of an unusually long range penetration of an equilibrium pseudospin polarization into the normal region by proximity to a pseudoferromagnet. Our results reveals the potential of gapped graphene for realization of pseudospin-based nanoelectronics.
