description: Establishing the stellar masses (M*), and hence specific star-formation rates (sSFRs) of submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) is crucial for determining their role in the cosmic galaxy/star formation. However, there is as yet no consensus over the typical M* of SMGs. Specifically, even for the same set of SMGs, the reported average M* have ranged over an order of magnitude, from ~5x10^10 Mo to ~5x10^11 Mo. Here we study how different methods of analysis can lead to such widely varying results. We find that, contrary to recent claims in the literature, potential contamination of IRAC 3-8 um photometry from hot dust associated with an active nucleus is not the origin of the published discrepancies in derived M*. Instead, we expose in detail how inferred M* depends on assumptions made in the photometric fitting, and quantify the individual and cumulative effects of different choices of initial mass function, different brands of evolutionary synthesis models, and different forms of assumed star-formation history. We review current observational evidence for and against these alternatives as well as clues from the hydrodynamical simulations, and conclude that, for the most justifiable choices of these model inputs, the average M* of SMGs is ~2x10^11 Mo. We also confirm that this number is perfectly reasonable in the light of the latest measurements of their dynamical masses, and the evolving M* function of the overall galaxy population. M* of this order imply that the average sSFR of SMGs is comparable to that of other star-forming galaxies at z>2, at 2-3 Gyr^-1. This supports the view that, while rare outliers may be found at any M*, most SMGs simply form the top end of the main-sequence of star-forming galaxies at these redshifts. Conversely, this argues strongly against the viewpoint that SMGs are extreme pathological objects, of little relevance in the cosmic history of star-formation.

description: Context Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma is a rare liver tumor with the propensity to metastasize to the lymph nodes months or years after initial surgery. However, its metastatic spread to the pancreas was previously reported only in a child. Case report We present an unusual case of a young female patient who was repeatedly treated by surgical excision of abdominal and mediastinal lymph node recurrences between 2 and 6 years after left hepatic lobectomy for fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma. At 8 years following her initial surgery, the patient was diagnosed with pancreatic head metastasis and a pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed. Postoperative course was uneventful and the patient did not experience recurrence within the last 18 months. Conclusion The metastasis of fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma to the pancreas is highly exceptional but possible and its excision appears warranted as well.

Neutrino masses and flavor mixing in a generalized inverse seesaw model with a universal two-zero texture

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: A generalized inverse seesaw model, in which the 9x9 neutrino mass matrix has vanishing (1,1) and (1,3) submatrices, is proposed. This is similar to the universal two-zero texture which gives vanishing (1,1) and (1,3) elements of the 3x3 mass matrices in both the charged lepton and neutrino sectors. We consider the Z_6 x Z_6 group to realize such texture zeros. We study this generalized inverse seesaw model systematically and derive the seesaw formula for the 3x3 mass matrix of three active neutrinos. We also analyze the universal two-zero texture in the general case and propose two ansatze to reduce the number of free parameters. Taking account of the new result of θ_{13} from the Daya Bay experiment, we constrain the parameter space of the universal two-zero texture in the general case and in the two ansatze, respectively. We find that one of the ansatze works well.

description: Objectives Animal studies have demonstrated a role for substance P binding to neurokinin-1 receptor in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis. Our aim was to assess the efficacy of a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist (aprepitant) at preventing post-ERCP pancreatitis in high risk patients. Design Randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial at a single academic medical center. Intervention Patients at high risk for post-ERCP pancreatitis received either placebo or oral aprepitant administered 4 hours prior to ERCP, 80 mg 24 hours after the first dose, and then 80 mg 24 hours after the second dose. Patients Thirty-four patients received aprepitant and 39 patients received placebo. Statistics Fisher’s exact test was used to compare incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis in the two groups. Results Baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups. Incidence of acute pancreatitis was 7 in the aprepitant group and 7 in the placebo group. Hospitalization within 7 days post-procedure for abdominal pain that did not meet criteria for acute pancreatitis occurred in 6 and 9 patients in the aprepitant and placebo groups respectively (P=0.772). Conclusions Aprepitant did not lower incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis in this preliminary human study. Larger studies potentially using the recently available intravenous formulation are necessary to conclusively clarify the efficacy of aprepitant in this setting.

description: By quenching the strength of interactions in a partially condensed Bose gas we create a "super-saturated" vapor which has more thermal atoms than it can contain in equilibrium. Subsequently, the number of condensed atoms ($N_0$) grows even though the temperature ($T$) rises and the total atom number decays. We show that the non-equilibrium evolution of the system is isoenergetic and for small initial $N_0$ observe a clear separation between $T$ and $N_0$ dynamics, thus explicitly demonstrating the theoretically expected "two-step" picture of condensate growth. For increasing initial $N_0$ values we observe a crossover to classical relaxation dynamics. The size of the observed quench-induced effects can be explained using a simple equation of state for an interacting harmonically-trapped atomic gas.

Evolutionary conservation of long intergenic non-coding RNA genes in Arabidopsis
Creators: name: Hammel, Alexander John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA) genes are a poorly studied class of transcripts, particularly in plants. Because of the low levels of expression, high tissue speci- city, and rapid rate of evolution of lincRNA transcripts, the discovery and functional annotation of these molecules is a signi cant challenge. Here, I report the annotation of 201 new lincRNA transcripts in Arabidopsis thaliana discovered using the results of a single RNA-seq experiment of a normalized library. Using these sequences, along with the 6 480 lincRNA genes annotated by Liu et al. (2012), I performed a pairwise sequence alignment experiment with the genomes of 22 plant species in order to discover highly conserved sequences within lincRNA loci. Of the 6 681 lincRNA sequences examined, 3 374 have highly conserved sequences supported by multiple genomic alignments to other species. Six of these show evidence of ongoing reduced sequence rate evolution when single-nucleotide variant data from the recent evolutionary history of Arabidopsis thaliana. The rate of retention of these conserved regions within the Brassicaceae suggests a much higher rate of sequence turnover in lincRNA genes compared with protein coding genes. Structural variant data from 80 di erent A. thaliana ecotypes suggests that lincRNA genes su er deletions of the entire locus from the genome with appreciable frequency: 570 of the lincRNA loci examined are entirely missing from at least one A. thaliana strain. These results suggest an intriguing mixture of rapid sequence evolution with short, highly-conserved islands in lincRNA genes.

description: The Internet of Things, more commonly known as IoT devices, is an ever growing topic, both in the marketplace and in cyber security. While new devices are released into the public every year, a lack of standardized security concepts is also growing ever so clear. By having a model or standard for IoT devices and manufacturers to follow, the customer-base of these devices will have an easier time identifying trustworthy devices as well as how to secure their own devices.

description: Our main theoretical result is that, if a simple polytope has a pair of complementary vertices (i.e., two vertices with no facets in common), then it has at least two such pairs, which can be chosen to be disjoint. Using this result, we improve adjacency testing for vertices in both simple and non-simple polytopes: given a polytope in the standard form {x \in R^n | Ax = b and x \geq 0} and a list of its V vertices, we describe an O(n) test to identify whether any two given vertices are adjacent. For simple polytopes this test is perfect; for non-simple polytopes it may be indeterminate, and instead acts as a filter to identify non-adjacent pairs. Our test requires an O(n^2 V + n V^2) precomputation, which is acceptable in settings such as all-pairs adjacency testing. These results improve upon the more general O(nV) combinatorial and O(n^3) algebraic adjacency tests from the literature.

description: Context Combination chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX (oxaliplatin, irinotecan, fluorouracil, and leucovorin) was shown to be effective in a large phase III trial. Objective The purpose of this study was to examine the tolerance and effectiveness of FOLFIRINOX as practiced outside of the confines of a clinical trial and to document any dose modifications used by practicing oncologists. Methods Data on patients with all stages of pancreatic adenocarcinoma treated with FOLFIRINOX at three institutions was analyzed for efficacy, tolerance, and use of any dose modifications. Results Total of 61 patients was included in this review. Median age was 58 years (range: 37 to 72 years), 33 were male (54.1%) and majority had ECOG performance of 0 or 1 (86.9%, 53 patients). Thirty-eight (62.3%) had metastatic disease, while 23 (37.7%) were treated for locally advanced or borderline resectable disease. Patients were treated with a median number of four cycles of FOLFIRINOX, with dose modifications in 58.3% (176/302) of all cycles. Ten patients had stable disease (16.4%), four had a partial response (6.6%) while eight had progressive disease (13.1%) on best imaging following therapy. Median progression-free survival and overall survival were 7.5 months and 13.5 months, respectively. The most common grade 3-4 adverse event was neutropenia at 19.7% (12 cases), with 4.9% (3 cases) rate of febrile neutropenia. Twenty-one patients (34.4%) were hospitalized as a result of therapy but there were no therapy-related deaths. Twenty-three (37.7%) had therapy eventually discontinued as a result of adverse events. Conclusion Despite substantial rates of adverse events and use of dose modifications, FOLFIRINOX was found to be clinically effective in both metastatic and non-metastatic patients. Regimen toxicity did not detract from overall response and survival.

description: Context Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. Highly infectious Newcastle disease virus (NDV) strains are known to be very cytotoxic for an array of human tumor cell types in vitro and in vivo but the effects of these and avirulent NDV strains on pancreatic neoplasms are little known. Objective Here, the direct cytolytic effects of the avirulent Hitchner-B1 (B1) and Ulster (U) NDV strains on 7 human pancreatic tumor cell lines and 4 normal human cell lines were studied. Methods Cytotoxicity assays used serially diluted NDV to determine minimum cytotoxic plaque forming unit (PFU) doses. Results For NDV-B1, normal human cells were killed only by relatively high doses (range: 471-3,724 PFU) whereas NDV-U killed these cells at low PFU (range: 0.32-1.60 PFU). Most pancreatic cancer cell types were killed by much lower NDV-B1 doses (range: 0.40-2.60 PFU) while NDV-U killed Capan-1 and SU.86.86 cultures at very low doses (0.00041 PFU and 0.0034 PFU, respectively). Conclusions On average, 1,555 times more NDV-B1 was needed to kill normal cells than most pancreatic tumor cells and 558 times more NDV-U to kill the two most sensitive pancreatic cancer lines. These innately-targeted lentogenic viruses may have meaningful potential in treating pancreatic cancer.

description: We calculate the limits on the fraction of viable dark matter minihalos in the early universe to host Population III.1 stars, surviving today as dark matter spikes in our Milky Way halo. Motivated by potential hints of light dark matter from the DAMA and CoGeNT direct dark matter searches, we consider thermal relic WIMP dark matter with masses of 5, 10, and 20 GeV, and annihilation to mu^+ mu^-, tau^+ tau^-, and q bar{q}. From this brief study we conclude that, if dark matter is light, either the typical black hole size is \lesssim 100 M_\odot (i.e. there is no significant Dark Star phase), and/or dark matter annihilates primarily to mu^+ mu^- or other final states that result in low gamma-ray luminosity, and/or that an extremely small fraction of minihalos in the early universe that seem suitable to host the formation of the first stars actually did.

description: Online shopping has become a vital part of consumer life in the age of digital transformation, providing convenience and a vast array of options. However, as e-commerce platforms proliferate, consumers find it more difficult to find the best deals on products because prices and promotions vary greatly among retailers, often requiring them to visit multiple websites to compare prices, features, and reviews manually, which is inefficient and time-consuming. The goal of this project is to develop an online price comparison tool that addresses these issues by aggregating real-time pricing, product features, and customer reviews from various e-commerce platforms. This will allow users to view all pertinent information in a single interface, assisting them in making timely and efficient decisions about what to buy. The tool will save customers time and guarantee they find the greatest offers without doing a lot of searching by offering real-time updates and a consolidated picture of the finest pricing available. By providing a clear, user-friendly platform that streamlines the decision-making process, aids in cost savings, and encourages competitive pricing among retailers, this project seeks to improve the online shopping experience.

description: It is shown that the finite satisfiability problem for two-variable logic over structures with one total preorder relation, its induced successor relation, one linear order relation and some further unary relations is EXPSPACE-complete. Actually, EXPSPACE-completeness already holds for structures that do not include the induced successor relation. As a special case, the EXPSPACE upper bound applies to two-variable logic over structures with two linear orders. A further consequence is that satisfiability of two-variable logic over data words with a linear order on positions and a linear order and successor relation on the data is decidable in EXPSPACE. As a complementing result, it is shown that over structures with two total preorder relations as well as over structures with one total preorder and two linear order relations, the finite satisfiability problem for two-variable logic is undecidable.

Super-Droplet Approach to Simulate Precipitating Trade-Wind Cumuli - Comparison of Model Results with RICO Aircraft Observations

Subjects: subject: Atmospheric and Oceanic Physics (physics.ao-ph)

description: In this study we present a series of LES simulations employing the Super-Droplet Method (SDM) for representing aerosol, cloud and rain microphysics. SDM is a particle-based and probabilistic approach in which a Monte-Carlo type algorithm is used for solving the particle collisions and coalescence process. The model does not differentiate between aerosol particles, cloud droplets, drizzle or rain drops. Consequently, it covers representation of such cloud-microphysical processes as: CCN activation, drizzle formation by autoconversion, accretion of cloud droplets, self-collection of raindrops and precipitation including aerosol wet deposition. Among the salient features of the SDM, there are: (i) the robustness of the model formulation (i.e. employment of basic principles rather than parametrisations) and (ii) the ease of comparison of the model results with experimental data obtained with particle-counting instruments. The model set-up used in the study is based on observations from the Rain In Cumulus over Ocean (RICO) field project (the GEWEX Cloud System Study Boundary Layer Cloud Working Group RICO case). Cloud and rain droplet size spectrum features obtained in the simulations are compared with previously published aircraft observations carried out during the RICO field project. The analysis covers height-resolved statistics of simulated cloud microphysical parameters such as droplet number concentration, effective radius, and the width of the cloud droplet size spectrum. The sensitivity of the results to the grid resolution of the LES, as well as to the sampling density of the probabilistic (Monte-Carlo type) model is discussed.

description: We analyze theoretically polar molecules confined in planar arrays of one dimensional tubes. In the classical limit, if the number of tubes is finite, new types of "clustered Wigner crystals" with increasingly many molecules per unit cell can be stabilized by tuning the in-plane angle between the dipolar moments and the tube direction. Quantum mechanically, these phases melt into distinct "clustered Luttinger liquids." We calculate the phase diagram of the system and study the quantum melting of the clustered phases. We find that the requirements for exploring these phases are reachable in current experiments and discuss possible experimental signatures.

description: Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are clinically heterogeneous and biologically complex. State of the art genetics research has unveiled a large number of variants linked to ASD. But in general it remains unclear, what biological factors lead to changes in the brains of autistic individuals. We build on the premise that these heterogeneous genetic or genomic aberrations will converge towards a common impact downstream, which might be reflected in the transcriptomes of individuals with ASD. Similarly, a considerable number of transcriptome analyses have been performed in attempts to address this question, but their findings lack a clear consensus. As a result, each of these individual studies has not led to any significant advance in understanding the autistic phenotype as a whole. The goal of this research is to comprehensively re-evaluate these expression profiling studies by conducting a systematic meta-analysis. Here, we report a meta-analysis of over 1000 microarrays across twelve independent studies on expression changes in ASD compared to unaffected individuals, in blood and brain. We identified a number of genes that are consistently differentially expressed across studies of the brain, suggestive of effects on mitochondrial function. In blood, consistent changes were more difficult to identify, despite individual studies tending to exhibit larger effects than the brain studies. Our results are the strongest evidence to date of a common transcriptome signature in the brains of individuals with ASD.

description: Context In 2012 the International Consensus Guidelines for the management of IPMNs changed the criteria for surgery and the definition of “malignancy”, reserving this term only for invasive carcinoma. Objectives To evaluate the accuracy of surgical criteria to predict malignancy. Methods From 2003 to 2012, data regarding 184 patients with IPMNs, were recorded in a prospective database. Forty-two (22.8%) patients, undergoing surgery, were evaluated according to the new guidelines. Criteria for surgery (cyst size, Wirsung dilatation, symptoms and  presence of solid endocystic component) were studied to assess the malignancy in patients affected by IPMNs. Multivariate analysis was carried out comparing the new (only invasive carcinoma) and old definition of malignancy (invasive carcinoma and high grade dysplasia). Results All operated patients presented criteria for surgery: 9 (21.4%) had pancreatitis, 12 (28.6%) showed enhancing solid component (ESC), 28 (66.7%) had main pancreatic duct (MPD) dilated and in 18 (42.9%) cases cystic size was ≥30 mm. Malignancy was recorded in 21 (50.0%) and 17 (40.5%) patients, according to the Sendai and Fukuoka definitions. At multivariate analysis no factors predicted malignancy according to Fukuoka definition, while presence of ESC (RR 14.2; 95% CI 1.8-113.5; P=0.012) and cystic size (RR 1.1; 95%CI 1.02-1.20; P=0.019) were related to malignancy according to Sendai definition. A dimensional cut-off of the cystic lesion of 26 mm was obtained with a ROC curve (AUC=0.724; P=0.013). At the multivariate analysis, this cut-off resulted the strongest independent factor predicting malignancy according to Sendai definition (RR 8.0; 95%CI 1.13-56.95; P=0.037). Conclusion In our experience, surgical criteria seem to be inefficacy to predict presence of invasive carcinoma. ESC and cystic size were the only factors able to detect patients with high grade dysplasia or invasive carcinoma and to suggest the surgical approach.

description: 75As NMR experiments were performed in Ba(Fe1-xRux)2As2 for x=0 to 80%. Magnetic fractions and NMR lineshapes demonstrate that Ru substitution destroys the antiferromagnetic (AF) order inhomogeneously with a magnetic moment distributed from 0.9 to 0 uB. Superconductivity emerges at intermediate Ru doping and coexists with AF order only in the regions where moments are smaller than ~0.3uB, resulting in an original nanoscale texture. This situation contrasts with that of Co substitution, challenging the apparent universality of the phase diagram in Fe-based superconductors.

description: Context The role of lymph node ratio (LNR) has been recognized as a prognostic factor in several malignancies. Objectives To evaluate the role of LNR in patients affected by pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs). Methods Data regarding 45 patients were extracted from a dedicate database containing 92 patients undergone surgical exploration for pNETs. Patients who underwent palliative operation or enucleoresection or without Ki-67 determination were excluded. Sex, age, presence of symptoms, hormonal status, site of tumor, presence of MEN1, surgical procedure, R status, TNM-ENETS stage, WHO 2010 classification, Ki-67, and LNR were studied as possible factors influencing disease free survival (DFS) with univariate and multivariate analyses. Results Mean age of patients was 60±13 years. There were 22 (51.2%) female and 21 (48.8%) male. Symptoms were present in 27 (62.8%) patients. 34 (79.1%) patients had non-functioning pNETs and more frequently the tumor was located in the body (46.5%). Five (11.6%) patients were affected by MEN1. R0 resection was carried out in 38 (88.4%) cases. There were 17 (39.5%) pNETs G1, 24 (55.8%) pNETs G2 and 2 (4.7%) pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (pNECs) G3. Mean Ki-67 was 6±10%. According to TNM-ENETS stage there were 17 (39.5%), 2 (4.7%), 17 (39.5%), and 7 (16.3%) patients in stage I, II, III, and IV, respectively. LNR was 0 in 26 (60.5%) patients, between 0 and 0.2 in 8 (18.6%) patients, and >0.2 in 9 (20.9%) patients. Mean DFS was 48±56 months. Multivariate analysis found that TNM-ENETS stage (HR 5.0; P=0.036) and Ki-67 (HR 1.2; P=0.016) were significantly related to DFS. There were no differences between patients with LNR=0 and LNR between 0 and 0.2 (HR 5.9; P=0.172) while patients with LNR between 0 and 0.2 had better DFS respect to those with LNR >0.2 (HR=0.2; P=0.01). A new cut off for LNR of 0.07 was obtained by ROC curve (AUC 0.771; P=0.008). Considering the new cut off, the multivariate analysis showed that LNR <0.07 was the only independent factor related to DFS (HR=28; P=0.002). Conclusion LNR can be considered an important prognostic factor predicting DFS in patients affected by pNETs.

description: Using a correspondence between the f(T)-gravity with the power-law entropy corrected version of the holographic dark energy model, we reconstruct the holographic f(T)-gravity model with power-law entropy correction. We fit the model parameters by using the latest observational data including type Ia supernovea, baryon acoustic oscillation, cosmic microwave background, and Hubble parameter data. We also check the viability of our model using a cosmographic analysis approach. Using the best-fit values of the model, we obtain the evolutionary behaviors of the effective torsion equation of state parameter of the power-law entropy corrected holographic f(T)-gravity model as well as the deceleration parameter of the universe. We also investigate different energy conditions in our model. Furthermore, we examine the validity of the generalized second law of gravitational thermodynamics. Finally, we point out the growth rate of matter density perturbation in our model. We conclude that in power-law entropy corrected holographic f(T)-gravity model, the universe begins a matter dominated phase and approaches a de Sitter regime at late times, as expected. It also can justify the transition from the quintessence state to the phantom regime in the near past as indicated by recent observations. Moreover, this model is consistent with current data, passes the cosmographic test and fits the data of the growth factor well as the LCDM model.

description: Context Mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) of the pancreas concern usually female patients and are characterized by an ovarian-type stroma. Case report A 65-year-old man was admitted to our Institute for the incidental finding, at ultrasonography, of a cystic mass of the body-tail of the pancreas. Laboratory tests, including tumor markers (CEA and CA 19-9), were within normal range. A CT scan confirmed the mass, hypodense, unilocular, 45 mm in diameter, regular shaped and without neither contrast enhancement nor signs of infiltration of adjacent structures. A CWRM showed a well-shaped pancreatic gland with a 49 mm in diameter fluid mass of the body, without septa or endoluminal solid nodules, without a clear communication with the main pancreatic duct. Contrast enhanced-US confirmed a strict connection with the splenic vessels, without infiltration, and revealed the absence of contrast-enhancement as well as the presence of communication with the pancreatic duct. These features suggested an IPMN branch duct type larger than 3 cm. The patient underwent a subtotal pancreatectomy with spleen resection. Pathological examination showed a cystic lesion measuring 40 mm in diameter, with unilocular pattern, smooth and white inner walls, containing viscous whitish mucin and without communication with the main pancreatic duct. Microscopically, the lesion showed two components: a mucinous epithelial layer and a low-grade dysplasia ovarian-type stroma. Tumor cells displayed diffuse positivity for estrogen, progesteron and calretinin. Lymph-nodes (n=6) were negative and surgical margins were tumor-free. A final diagnosis of MCN was performed. Postoperative course was complicated by a pancreatic fistula, grade B, treated with a CT-guided abdominal drainage. The patient was discharged in postoperative day 14 with a minimal residual drainage output and he is alive, disease-free at 6 months after surgery. Conclusion Only 9 cases of MCN have been reported in male patients in literature. Thus, the occurrence of MCN in male patients is very rare and its possible pathogenesis could be referred to embryological abnormalities.

description: We discuss a general bound on the possibility to realise inflation in any minimal supergravity with F-terms. The derivation crucially depends on the sGoldstini, the scalar field directions that are singled out by spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. The resulting bound involves both slow-roll parameters and the geometry of the Kähler manifold of the chiral scalars. We analyse the inflationary implications of this bound, and in particular discuss to what extent the requirements of single field and slow-roll can both be met in F-term inflation.
