description: Context Safety and cost-effectiveness of venous resection (VR) in resectable/borderline resectable ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic head is still debate. Objectives Primary end point was to compare post-operative mortality between patients treated with a standard resection and patients treated with a VR. Secondary end points were postoperative morbidity, type of discharge, costs of hospitalization, R1 rate, and overall (OS) and disease free (DFS) survivals. Methods From 2001 to 2013, data of 291 pancreatic resections were collected. All patients (n=91) affected by head ductal adenocarcinoma were divided in two groups: with (group B; n=15) or without vascular resection (group A; n=76). The two groups were compared for postoperative course, OS and DFS. Multivariate analysis was carried out in order to evaluate the role of demographic, clinical, surgical (including VR) and pathological factors on mortality, morbidity, type of discharge, costs, R1 rate, OS and DFS. Results Postoperative mortality, morbidity and type of discharge were similar in the two groups. The total costs of hospitalization was similar, while the costs of ICU stay were higher in group B (P=0.012). No differences between two groups about R1 rate, DFS and OS were detected. Age >80 years was the only factor related to postoperative mortality (OR=3.9, P=0.048). ASA score increased the risk of postoperative complications (OR=2.9, P=0.029). Discharge to health care facility was more frequent in patients with age >80 years (OR=405.3, P=0.001) and with an higher preoperative total bilirubin (OR=1.2, P=0.042). ASA score increase by 34% the total hospital stay (P=0.004), by 48% the total hospital costs (P<0.001) and the ICU costs by 56% (P=0.004). Vascular resection increased the ICU costs by 50% (P=0.038). Vascular resection did not reduce the risk of R1. R1 resection on arterial margin is related with a shorter OS (HR=1.8, P=0.049), while R1 resection, vascular infiltration and a vascular involvement >G1 at imaging were all predictive of a worse DFS (HR=3.2, P=0.050; HR=2.6, P=0.027; and HR=1.6, P=0.043, respectively). Conclusions VR is safe and useful to reach an R0 resection. VR affects the costs of postoperative management. OS and DFS were similar in patients with or without VR.

description: We show the existence of ultra-long-range giant dipole molecules formed by a neutral alkali ground state atom that is bound to the decentered electronic wave function of a giant dipole atom. The adiabatic potential surfaces emerging from the interaction of the ground state atom with the giant dipole electron posses a rich topology depending on the degree of electronic excitation. Binding energies and the vibrational motion in the energetically lowest surfaces are analyzed by means of perturbation theory and exact diagonalization techniques. The resulting molecules are truly giant with internuclear distances up to several $μm$. Finally, we demonstrate the existence of intersection manifolds of excited electronic states that potentially lead to a vibrational decay of the ground state atom dynamics.

description: Context Soft pancreatic parenchyma is the most widely recognized risk factor for pancreatic fistulas. Objective To evaluate factors related to a “soft pancreas”. Methods Retrospective study of patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy or left pancreatectomy. Factors considered were: sex, age, co-morbidities, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, characteristics of the pancreatic remnant and preoperative diagnosis. Principal endpoints were: to recognize preoperative factors related to a soft pancreatic remnant and to establish if they are useful in predicting a pancreatic fistula. Results Two hundred and eight patients were recorded. The pancreatic fistula rate was 29.3% and it was significantly related to the type of resection, the soft texture of the pancreatic remnant (P=0.037), a Wirsung duct diameter <3 mm and the preoperative diagnosis. The risk factors predicting a soft pancreatic remnant, were BMI >24 kg/m2 (P=0.011); a Wirsung duct size ≤3 (P<0.001) and patients with periampullary diseases (P<0.001). Based on these three factors, we developed a risk score model that was validated by considering the pancreatic fistula rate. We noted that the overall and clinically relevant pancreatic fistula rate significantly increased with increasing score values (P=0.002 and P=0.028, respectively). Using a score cut-off value of 6 points, patients with a score <6 were considered to be at low risk; those with a score ≥6 were considered to be at high risk. Conclusions Body mass index >24 kg/m2, Wirsung duct size <3 mm and preoperative diagnosis may be considered as preoperative factors related to a soft pancreas and they resulted useful in predicting the incidence of pancreatic fistulas.

description: Context Serous cystic tumours (SCTs) of the pancreas are regarded as a benign entity with rare malignant potential. Surgical resection is generally considered curative. It was usually performed in large, symptomatic tumours or in cases in which the diagnosis was not clear. Objective To evaluate factors related to the surgical indication. Methods From 2000 to 2013, data of 43 patients affected by SCTs were collected in a prospective database. Demographics, clinical, radiological, surgical and pathological data were considered as factors related to surgical indication. After 2000 all patients were observed by a dedicated team including radiologists, surgeons, gastroenterologists and pathologists. Thus, patients were divided in two periods, before and after the 2000, to assess if there had been difference over the time in the management of this type of tumours. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed. Results Thirty-three patients (76.7%) underwent surgical resection, while 10 (23.3%) entered in a surveillance program. At univariate analysis, factors related to surgery were: symptoms (P=0.026), radiological presence of microcysts of diameter <1 mm (P=0.020) and radiological diagnosis different from a SCTs (P=0.018). The multivariate analysis confirmed that symptoms increased the risk of surgery (OR=34.0; 95% CI: 2.1-545.1; P=0.013). The period in which the patients were enrolled, before and after 2000, did not influence the indication to surgery. Conclusions In our experience the only factor related to surgery was the presence of symptoms.

description: Context The safety of pancreatic resections in very elderly patients is still controversial. Objective To evaluate postoperative mortality, morbidity, type of discharge and length of hospital stay (LOS) in octogenarians who underwent pancreatic resections for malignancy. Methods From 2004 to 2013, 213 patients underwent pancreatic resections and were recorded in a prospective data base. They were divided in three groups: <70 years, 70-80 years and ≥80 years and were analyzed regarding postoperative course. Multivariate analysis was carried out to verify the impact of age on postoperative results. Results Mortality rate was higher (P=0.029) in patients ≥80 years (16.7%) only when compared with patients <70 years (3.4%). Morbidity rate was similar in the three groups. The discharge home was more frequent in patients <70 years (94.6%) and in those 70-80 years (92.3%) respect on patients ≥80 years (55%; P<0.001). LOS was similar in patients <70 years and in those 70-80 years, while it results higher in those aged ≥80 years (P=0.021). At multivariate analysis, patients aged 70-80 and ≥80 years had an increased risk of postoperative mortality (OR=7.1, P=0.022 and OR=6.3, P=0.050, respectively) as well as malnourishment (OR=4.5, P=0.029). Age did not influence morbidity while ASA score 4 increased risk of complications (OR=7.0, P=0.018). Distal pancreatectomy (DP) or an atypical resection reduced the risk (OR=0.4, P=0.008 and OR=0.1, P=0.049, respectively) respect on major procedures. Discharge to health care facility was more frequent in patients ≥80 years (OR=74.5, P<0.001), with ASA score 4 (OR=48.9, P=0.023), comorbidities (OR=25.4, P=0.011) or jaundice (OR=119.2, P=0.004) and in those performing DP (OR=26.7, P=0.039). Biliary stenting reduced the odds to health care facility (OR=0.1, P=0.041). LOS was increased by comorbidities, chronic renal failure and jaundice by 25% (P=0.039), 64% (P=0.003) and 36% (P=0.010), respectively. Total pancreatectomy reduced LOS by 14% (P=0.036). Conclusions Age ≥80 years increased the risk of postoperative mortality and discharge to health care facility after pancreatic resections.

description: This paper presents a method for indexing activities of daily living in videos obtained from wearable cameras. In the context of dementia diagnosis by doctors, the videos are recorded at patients' houses and later visualized by the medical practitioners. The videos may last up to two hours, therefore a tool for an efficient navigation in terms of activities of interest is crucial for the doctors. The specific recording mode provides video data which are really difficult, being a single sequence shot where strong motion and sharp lighting changes often appear. Our work introduces an automatic motion based segmentation of the video and a video structuring approach in terms of activities by a hierarchical two-level Hidden Markov Model. We define our description space over motion and visual characteristics of video and audio channels. Experiments on real data obtained from the recording at home of several patients show the difficulty of the task and the promising results of our approach.

description: The astronomical dark matter could be made of weakly interacting and massive particles. If so, these species would be abundant inside the Milky Way, where they would continuously annihilate and produce cosmic rays. Those annihilation products are potentially detectable at the Earth, and could provide indirect clues for the presence of dark matter species within the Galaxy. We will review here the various cosmic radiations which the dark matter can produce. We will examine how they propagate throughout the Milky Way and compare the dark matter yields with what pure astrophysical processes are expected to generate. The presence of dark matter substructures might enhance the signals and will be briefly discussed.

description: We study nano-sized spherically symmetric plasma structures which are radial nonlinear oscillations of electrons in plasma. The effective interaction of these plasmoids via quantum exchange forces between ions is described. We calculate the energy of this interaction for the case of a dense plasma. The conditions when the exchange interaction is attractive are examined and it is shown that separate plasmoids can form a single object. The application of our results to the theoretical description of stable atmospheric plasma structures is considered.

description: Supernova Remnants (SNRs) are believed to be acceleration sites of Galactic cosmic rays. Therefore, deep studies of these objects are instrumental for an understanding of the high energy processes in our Galaxy. RX J0852.0-4622, also known as Vela Junior, is one of the few (4) shell-type SNRs resolved at Very High Energies (VHE; E > 100 GeV). It is one of the largest known VHE sources (~ 1.0 deg radius) and its flux level is comparable to the flux level of the Crab Nebula in the same energy band. These characteristics allow for a detailed analysis, shedding further light on the high-energy processes taking place in the remnant. In this document we present further details on the spatial and spectral morphology derived with an extended data set. The analysis of the spectral morphology of the remnant is compatible with a constant power-law photon index of 2.11 +/- 0.05_stat +/- 0.20_syst from the whole SNR in the energy range from 0.5 TeV to 7 TeV. The analysis of the spatial morphology shows an enhanced emission towards the direction of the pulsar PSR J0855-4644, however as the pulsar is lying on the rim of the SNR, it is difficult to disentangle both contributions. Therefore, assuming a point source, the upper limit on the flux of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) between 1 TeV and 10 TeV, is estimated to be ~ 2% of the Crab Nebula flux in the same energy range.

description: Context Decision’s algorithms proposed in recent guidelines for pancreatic cystic tumors assumed a correct radiological diagnosis. Objective To evaluate the degree of discordance between radiological (RD) and pathological diagnosis (PD) in operated pancreatic cystic tumors. Methods From January 1990 to January 2013, 117 patients were operated for pancreatic cystic tumors. After 2000 all patients were observed by a dedicated team including radiologist, surgeons, gastroenterologist and pathologist. Demographics, clinical, radiological, surgical and pathological data were considered. RD was related to PD and factors influencing radiological pitfalls were studied with multivariate analysis. Results Twenty-one patients (17.9%) had RD of serous cystic tumors (SCT), 37 (31.6%) of IPMN, 11 (9.4%) of mucinous cystic tumors (MCT) and 48 (41.1%) non specified cystic lesion (NCL). PD were 29 (24.8%) SCT, 39 (33.3%) IPMN, 37 (31.6%) MCT, and 12 rare or non neoplastic lesions (10.3%). The degree of correlation between RD and DP was higher (P<0.001). The DP was correct in 95.5% of SCT, in 89.2% of IPMN, in 72.7% of MCT but only in 22.9% of NCL there were a rare lesions. Overall degree of radiological and pathological concordance was 54.7%. Multivariate analysis showed that RD after 2000 increase the odds of concordance between RD and DP (OR=3; P=0.010). Septa represent an independent factor who reduced the odds of concordance (OR=0.4; P=0.05). Age, sex, symptoms, size, site and number of lesions, solid component, calcification, dilated Wirsung, completed radiological work-up (CT scan plus MRI or EUS) did not influence concordance between RD and DP. Conclusion Risk of radiological pitfalls in pancreatic cystic tumors was high. The dedicated team could be reduce mistakes in preoperative diagnosis.

description: Context Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP), was rapidly spread in Italy as technique for the treatment of both malignant and benign pancreatic neoplasm. Objective To compare the results of LDP in Italy in high volume (HVC) and low volume (LVC) pancreatic centers. Methods A systematic search using the terms “pancreatectomy AND laparoscopic AND Italy” was performed through MEDLINE and EMBASE. A total of 37 manuscripts were found and 5 manuscripts were considered. Data were extracted using a predesigned pro-forma and a pooled analysis was carried out. Results Three studies was conducted in HVC including 76% of the cases. The weighted mean number/years of patients who underwent LDP, was 8.8 and 3.4, in HVC and LVC, respectively, resulting in a pooled mean difference of 5.40 (95% CI: 4.26-6.54; P<0.001). The laparoscopic approach was more frequently used in LVC than HVC (88.8% vs. 31.6%) in patients underwent distal pancreatectomy, resulting in OR of 0.35 (95% CI: 0.16-0.78; P=0.01). The most frequent lesion treated was cystic lesion in HVC (58.9%) while in LVC were solid neoplasm (73.7%) resulting in OR of 4.72 (95% CI: 1.84-12.07; P=0.001). The number of patients affected by ductal carcinomas treated was low both in HCV and LVC (11.5 and 20.0%, respectively; P=0.25). Operative time was similar in HVC and LVC with a weighed mean of 200 and 214 minutes, respectively (P=0.20). Rate of conversion was lower in HVC than LVC (7.6% vs. 20.0%) resulting in a OR 0.32 (95% CI: 0.10-1.04; P=0.06). Postoperative morbidity rate (42% vs. 30.0%; P=0.24), pancreatic fistula rate (27.3% vs. 26.6%; P=0.94), and re-operation rate (5.2% vs. 0%; P=0.21) were similar in HVC and LCV. Mean postoperative stay (LOS) was shorter in HVC than LVC (6.5 vs. 11.3 days) resulting in a pooled mean difference of -4.80 (95% CI: -6.57 to -3.03; P<0.001). The ratio between splenectomy observed\expected was higher in HVC than LCV (2.6 vs. 1.3) resulting in a RR of 1.25 (95% CI: 1.05-1.48; P=0.01). Conclusion In LVC, LDP was frequently performed. In HVC only one-third body-tail pancreatic lesions, more frequently cystic, was laparoscopically treated. Rate of conversion was lower and LOS shorter in HVC respect on LVC.

description: Context Interventional radiology (IR) have increased for the first-line management of postoperative complications after pancreatic resections. Objective To evaluate frequency, safety and usefulness of IR. Methods Patients with postoperative complications after pancreatic resections were analyzed for the use of IR procedures. Patients in which IR was performed were compared with those in which IR was not performed, regarding type of pancreatic resections, diagnosis, post-operative mortality and morbidity according Clavien-Dindo classification, post­operative pancreatic fistula (POPF), post­pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), bile leakage, reoperations rate and length of hospital stay (LOS). Results Two-hundred and ninety patients were recorded: 182 (72.8%) experienced postoperative complications, 67 (36.8%) Clavien grade ≥3. IR was performed in 37 cases (20.3%): in 28 (75.7%) a percutaneous drainage (PD) of an abdominal fluid collection, in 8 (21.6%) a transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) and an arterial embolization (AE) in 3 cases (8.1%). IR was performed 14±6.7 days after surgery, with technical success in all cases and clinical success in 75.7%. Re-operation rate after IR was 13.5%, thus re-operations were avoided in 32 (86.5%) cases. Mortality after IR was 16.2%; 4 (66.7%) patients died after a re-laparotomy post-IR. Mean LOS was 18.3±14.4 days. There were no statistical differences between the IR group and the non-IR group regarding type of resection, pathological diagnosis, postoperative mortality and reoperation rate. Patients with clinically relevant POPF and bile leak were treated with IR more frequently than without IR (P<0.001 and P=0.009, respectively). Patients with late PPH were treated more frequently with IR (P=0.030), as well as patients with PPH grade C (P=0.029). Patients with a Clavien score ≥3, were treated significantly more frequently with IR (P<0.001). Finally, patients treated with IR had a significant longer LOS than those in the non-IR group (37.5±23.4 vs. 18.7±11.7 days; P<0.001). Conclusions IR procedures are feasible and safe especially for postoperative pancreatic fistula and bile leak. They are useful because promptly can resolve several life-threatening complications avoiding re-operations.

description: Context In the last twenty years the knowledge of natural history of the pancreatic cystic lesion have changed as well as many improvement in radiological diagnosis has been observed. Objective To evaluate the factors influencing surgical indication in patients with pancreatic cystic tumors. Methods From January 1990 to January 2013, 253 patients with pancreatic cystic tumors were observed. Demographics, clinical, radiological, surgical, pathological and follow-up-data were collected prospectively from 2000. The surgical indication was based by clinical examination, CT scan and evaluation of CA 19.9. After 2006, we introduced routinarely the use of MRI in first radiological evaluation. All non-surgical managed patients were followed with annual clinical and radiological examination and evaluation of CA 19.9. Uni- and multi-variate analyses were carried out. Results One-hundred and twenty-five patients (49.4%) received surgical indication. Univariate analysis showed that mean age of operated patients was lower than those in follow-up (60 vs. 70 years; P<0.001). Patients in surgical arm were more frequently symptomatic (57.6% vs. 5.5%; P<0.001) and they presented cystic lesion larger than those in follow-up (52 vs. 19 mm, P<0.001). Cystic tumors treated was more frequently single (75.6% vs. 53.9%; P<0.001), with solid component (20.8% vs. 2.3%; P<0.001), septa (57.6% vs. 36.7%; P=0.001) or Wirsung dilated (29.6% vs. 14.1%; P=0.004). Complete radiological evaluation (including CT scan and MRI or EUS) was performed more frequently in non surgical patients (85.9% vs. 33.6%; P=0.001). IPMN type II (79.7%) was the radiological diagnosis more frequent in follow-up group while 40.8% of patients was operated without a proper radiological diagnosis (P<0.001). Patients studied before 2000 were more frequently operated (44.8% vs. 0%). Multivariate analysis confirmed that presence of symptoms (OR=13; P<0.001), increase of size (OR=2; P<0.001), dilated Wirsung (OR=7; P=0.004), solid component (OR=25; P=0.002) and septa (OR=5; P=0.005) increased the odds of surgery. Increase of age (OR=0.9; P<0.001) and complete radiological evaluation (OR=0.2; P=0.010) reduced independently the odds of surgery. Conclusion The surgical indication remains still associated to presence of symptoms, size of tumors, solid component or septa.

Vancouver’s night markets : intercultural encounters in urban and suburban Chinatowns
Creators: name: Pottie-Sherman, Yolande
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: This study compares two Chinese-themed night markets in Vancouver, Canada. The Chinatown Night Market is held in the City’s downtown historic Chinatown, while the Summer Night Market is held in the suburb of Richmond. Night markets are iconic elements in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and have a specific sensorial design created by tightly packed crowds, loud music, dim sum, and vendors selling pop culture goods. The central question of this research concerns the role of the everyday for intercultural understanding and engagement. As such, it places the night markets at the centre of three inter-related debates in the literature: the role of space in everyday encounters with difference; the interplay of structure and agency in the construction and representation of Chinatown; and the role of marketplaces specifically in fostering meaningful intercultural exchange in plural societies. This thesis compares Vancouverites’ experiences with difference in the two marketplaces, drawing on 88 interviews with consumers and vendors, ten in-depth key informant interviews (with market administrators and city officials), and hours of participant observation over the course of two years. The overarching contribution of this research is to demonstrate that the night markets, as everyday spaces, foster intercultural interaction and engagement. These everyday encounters with difference, however, do not occur in a vacuum. This research makes three inter-related arguments. First, the night market phenomenon in Metro Vancouver is a project in re-writing both the City landscape and the suburban landscape in a way that challenges imposed notions of “Chineseness” by city governments and multicultural planning discourses. As such, these cases reveal the struggle between structure and agency in the representation of Chinatown. Second, the different trajectories of the two marketplaces reveal a shift in the scale of diversity management planning discourses, from mosaic to micro-scale. Third, the night markets both reveal and contribute to the social normalization of ethno-cultural diversity in Metro Vancouver’s public realm.

description: Unitary transformations are an essential tool for the theoretical understanding of many systems by mapping them to simpler effective models. A systematically controlled variant to perform such a mapping is a perturbative continuous unitary transformation (pCUT) among others. So far, this approach required an equidistant unperturbed spectrum. Here, we pursue two goals: First, we extend its applicability to non-equidistant spectra with the particular focus on an efficient derivation of the differential flow equations, which define the enhanced perturbative continuous unitary transformation (epCUT). Second, we show that the numerical integration of the flow equations yields a robust scheme to extract data from the epCUT. The method is illustrated by the perturbation of the harmonic oscillator with a quartic term and of the two-leg spin ladders in the strong-rung-coupling limit for uniform and alternating rung couplings. The latter case provides an example of perturbation around a non-equidistant spectrum.

description: We theoretically study the spatially anisotropic spin-1/2 kagome antiferromagnet with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction using a renormalization group analysis in the quasi-one-dimensional limit. We identify the various temperature and energy scales for ordering in the system. For very weak DM interaction, we find a low-temperature spiral phase with the plane of the spiral selected by the DM interaction. This phase is similar to a previously identified phase in the absence of the DM interaction. However, above a critical DM interaction strength we find a transition to a phase with coexisting antiferromagnetic and dimer order, reminiscent of one-dimensional antiferromagnetic systems with a uniform DM interaction. Our results help shed light on the fate of two dimensional systems with both strong interactions and significant spin-orbit coupling.

description: We prove an Alexandrov type theorem for a quotient space of $\mathbb H^2\times \mathbb R$. More precisely we classify the compact embedded surfaces with constant mean curvature in the quotient of $\mathbb H^2\times \mathbb R$ by a subgroup of isometries generated by a parabolic translation along horocycles of $\mathbb H^2$ and a vertical translation. Moreover, we construct some examples of periodic minimal surfaces in $\mathbb H^2\times\mathbb R$ and we prove a multi-valued Rado theorem for small perturbations of the helicoid in $\mathbb H^2\times\mathbb R$.

description: Application of our algebraic approach to Liouville integrable defects is proposed for the sine-Gordon model. Integrability of the model is ensured by the underlying classical r-matrix algebra. The first local integrals of motion are identified together with the corresponding Lax pairs. Continuity conditions imposed on the time components of the entailed Lax pairs give rise to the sewing conditions on the defect point consistent with Liouville integrability.

description: We expound some results about the relationships between the Jacobi operators with respect to null vectors on a Lorentzian $\mathcal{S}$-manifold $M$ and the Jacobi operators with respect to particular spacelike unit vectors on $M$. We study the number of the eigenvalues of such operators in a $ϕ$-null Osserman Lorentzian $\mathcal{S}$-manifold, under suitable assumptions on the dimension of the manifold. Then, we generalize a curvature characterization, previously obtained by the first author for Lorentzian $ϕ$-null Osserman $\mathcal{S}$-manifolds with exactly two characteristic vector fields, to the case of those with an arbitrary number of characteristic vector fields.
