Replacement names and synonyms in Miconia (Melastomataceae: Miconieae)

The name Miconia grandifolia Ule is a later homonym of M. grandifolia D.Don. We replace Miconia grandifolia Ule with Miconia grandifoliata. Miconia anderssonii Wurdack is another name that must be considered as previously occupied, even if the previous name, Miconia andersonii Fawc. &amp; Rendle, has an epithet with only a slightly different spelling. We propose M. lennartanderssonii as its replacement. Miconia corazonica Gilli is a later homonym of Miconia corazonica Wurdack, but since we consider the first species to be a heterotypic synonym of Miconia asclepiadea, a new name is not required. The monotypic genus Icaria has been considered a synonym of Miconia for a long while, but the necessary combination of Icaria fictilis as Miconia fictilis had not been published, a problem also resolved here. We also provide lectotypifications for Miconia grandifoliata and Miconia asclepiadea.

Peri-treatment peripheral blood cell score predicts long-term locoregional progression hazard in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma after definitive chemoradiotherapy

Abstract Background Prediction of response to chemoradiotherapy is critical for the optimal management of oesophageal cancer, yet it is still an unmet clinical need. This study aims to evaluate the predictive potential of peri-treatment peripheral blood cells (PBC) in disease progression hazard in oesophageal cancer following chemoradiotherapy.Methods 87 patients with primary oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma were subjected to definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy in a phase II trial. PBC parameters (haemoglobin, neutrophils, platelets, lymphocytes and monocytes) were collected at 7 time points through the course of radiotherapy. The values of peri-treatment PBC parameters in predicting 3-year cumulative hazard of tumour progression were evaluated.Results Patients with disease progression displayed distinct distribution patterns of peri-treatment PBC compared to patients without. Greater prediction capabilities for risk of locoregional disease progression were found in PBC collected after the start of radiotherapy compared to their pretreatment counterparts, and in individual parameters rather than cell-to-cell ratios. The most predictive PBC parameters were integrated by summation and designated as a PBC score (PBCS), which further augmented their predictive power. Patients divided according to their PBCS (high vs medium vs low) had significantly different 3-year cumulative hazards of locoregional progression (58% vs 29% vs 7%, P = 0.0017). Multivariate analysis confirmed that PBCS high (HR 12.2, 95%CI 2.0-76.3, P = 0.007) and medium (HR 5.8, 95%CI 1.2-27.7, P = 0.028) are independent indicators of locoregional progression.Conclusion Peri-treatment PBCS can predict the long-term hazard of locoregional progression after definitive chemoradiotherapy in patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

A Novel Approach to Managing Hemolyzed Specimens

Hemolyzed specimens continue to cost the laboratory time and money. However, the core laboratory at Georgia Regents Health System, Inc. has instituted a novel approach to managing this problem. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the laboratory's new approach had a significant impact on the turn-around time (TAT) and cost of processing hemolyzed and non-hemolyzed specimens in the laboratory. The investigators queried the laboratory information systems for hemolyzed and non-hemolyzed specimens categorized as routine or STAT from the core laboratory and calculated statistical differences between the groups with respect to TAT and cost.The investigators found a statistically significant difference in the time it takes to process STAT hemolyzed specimens versus non-hemolyzed specimens with the new approach. Because of the new approach, hemolyzed specimens were actually processed as fast as, or faster than non-hemolyzed specimens in the core laboratory.

Evaluation of the Biocompatibility of Cuttlebone in Mouse

Bone grafting is widely used to bridge major bone defects or to promote bone union. Natural calcium carbonate (CC) has been used as a bone substitute material and used to scaffold for bone morphogenetic protein (BMP). The aims of this study is to evaluate the biocompatibility of cuttlebone (CB) and hydroxyapatite from CB (CBHA). Each material was shaped into disks (5 mm in diameter and 2 mm in thickness). To test biocompatibility, the disks were implanted into the dorsal subcutaneous tissue in mice. Fibrous capsule thickness around each disk was evaluated histologically at 2 and 4 weeks after implantation. Concerning biocompatibility, fibrous capsule thickness of CBHA was significantly thinner than that of CB and CHA (p < 0.05) at 2 and 4 weeks after implantation. Based on the clinical and histological results, CBHA would be a safe material for use inside the body and has more effective osteoconduction than CB.

The role of self‐Ia antigens in the murine mixed lymphocyte response

Abstract Mouse splenic macrophages (MΦ) were tested for their ability to potentiate in vitro allogeneic mixed lymphocyte response (MLR) of highly purified syngeneic responder T cells against allogeneic MΦ. It was shown that even extremely low numbers of MΦ, syngeneic to the responder T cells were able to induce significantly stronger MLR. This potentiating effect was demonstrated to be expressed via the self‐Ia antigens present on the surface of syngeneic MΦ., The functional involvement of self‐Ia antigens was substantiated by two approaches: (a) by using monoclonal antibodies specific for I‐region determinants of the responder haplotype MΦ, and (b) by setting up MLR cultures with stimulator MΦ of (responder X stimulator) F 1 origin which express both self‐ and allo‐Ia antigens. The results obtained in this study demonstrate that the presentation of self‐Ia antigens, in conjunction with the recognition of allomajor histocompatibility complex antigens, are required for in vitro primary MLR.

On a Golay-Shapiro-Like Sequence

Abstract A recent paper by P. Lafrance, N. Rampersad, and R. Yee studies the sequence of occurrences of 10 as a scattered subsequence in the binary expansion of integers. They prove in particular that the summatory function of this sequence has the “root N ” property, analogously to the summatory function of the Golay-Shapiro sequence. We prove here that the root N property does not hold if we twist the sequence by powers of a complex number of modulus one, hence showing a fundamental difference with the Golay-Shapiro sequence.

Precursor configurations and post-rupture evolution of Ag-CO-Ag single-molecule junctions

Experimental correlation analysis and first-principles theory are used to probe the structure and evolution of Ag-CO-Ag single-molecule junctions, both before the formation, and after the rupture of the junctions. Two dimensional correlation histograms and conditional histograms demonstrate that prior to the single-molecule bridge configuration the CO molecule is already bound parallel to the Ag single-atom contact. This molecular precursor configuration is accompanied by the opening of additional conductance channels compared to the single-channel transport in pure Ag monoatomic junctions. To investigate the post-rupture evolution of the junction we introduce a cross-correlation analysis between the opening and the subsequent closing conductance traces. This analysis implies that the molecule is bound rigidly to the apex of one electrode, and so the same single-molecule configuration is re-established as the junction is closed. The experimental results are confirmed by ab initio simulations of the evolution of contact geometries, transmission eigenvalues and scattering wavefunctions.

Effects of Eimeria tenella Infection on Key Parameters for Feed Efficiency in Broiler Chickens

The purpose of the study was to investigate effects of different inoculation dosages of E. tenella on growth performance, gastrointestinal permeability, oocyst shedding, intestinal morphology, fecal consistency, ileal apparent digestibility, antioxidant capacity, and cecal VFA profile in broiler chickens. Five different dosages (T0: 0, T1: 6250, T2: 12,500, T3: 25,000, and T4: 50,000) of E. tenella oocysts were inoculated via oral gavage to fourteen-day-old broilers. Inoculation of E. tenella linearly increased FCR (p &lt; 0.05), and feed intake was quadratically increased on 6 days post-infection (dpi; p = 0.08) and 7 dpi (p = 0.09). Cecal lesion score of each treatment was T0: 0; T1: 0.39 ± 0.14; T2: 0.93 ± 0.21; T3: 1.25 ± 0.16; and T4: 1.58 ± 0.2. Cecal total VFA production was linearly reduced due to E. tenella infection on 6 dpi (p &lt; 0.01). E. tenella infection deepened cecal crypts depth on 6 dpi (CD; p &lt; 0.05). Gastrointestinal permeability tended to be linearly increased (p = 0.07). E. tenella infection tended to linearly reduce duodenal VH (p = 0.1) and jejunal VH on 9 dpi (p = 0.09). Different dosages of E. tenella modulated the tendency of fecal moisture content and oocyst shedding. Therefore, E. tenella infection impaired feed efficiency and small intestinal health mainly by reducing cecal VFA production and deepening cecal CD in broilers.

Considerations for the long term: perpetual is not forever

Shallow land burial is intended to provide a waste emplacement with low probability for the release of radionuclides to the environment, and to provide a barrier against encroachment on the waste by man or his activities. Additionally, the emplacement conditions are designed to insure that a potential release cannot result in unacceptable radionuclide concentrations in man's environment. Site-control requirements are intended to prevent unacceptable use or accidental excavation of the waste disposal site. Evaluation procedures generally provide definition of the containment capability of the site under present environmental conditions. Long-term care requirements can continue site control measures, and provide a continuing check on the containment capability. However, significant changes in climate, hydrology, plant cover, and land use that might alter the containment potential can occur in a time frame of tens to hundreds of years, and true ''perpetual'' care cannot be guaranteed. This paper considers the possible long-term consequences of radionuclide uptake by plants and burrowing animals, of changes in site hydrology, and of inadvertent excavation of the buried waste by man at some distant future date.

Reconstruction Using Pedicled Inguinal Flap Type Mc Gregor in the Right Hand First Digit, Secondary to Necrosis Due to Loxosceles Spider Bite: Case Report

Loxosceles spider bite represents a relevant health problem in endemic regions, mainly due to its cutaneous manifestations characterized by progressive necrosis that is difficult to manage. We present the case of a 13-year-old female patient who arrived at our center with necrosis of the volar pulp of the right thumb, secondary to Loxosceles spider bite, showing rapid progression to ischemia and necrotic eschar despite initial management with specific antivenom, antihistamines, corticosteroids, and antibiotic therapy. In the absence of dermal matrices or other microsurgical resources, it was decided to perform reconstruction using a pedicled inguinal flap type McGregor, a classical technique described by McGregor and Morgan in 1972, based on the vascular axis of the superficial circumflex iliac artery. Surgical lavage, debridement of devitalized tissue, and subsequent rotation of the flap were performed, ensuring proper defect coverage and fixation. The postoperative course was uneventful, with flap division at 21 days and favorable clinical follow-up, preserving both function and aesthetic appearance of the thumb. This case highlights the validity and usefulness of the McGregor flap as a reconstructive alternative in complex hand injuries, even in less conventional etiologies such as cutaneous loxoscelism, underscoring its applicability in resource-limited settings. The evidence obtained reinforces the need to consider classical reconstructive techniques as part of the current surgical arsenal, while also promoting systematic documentation of these cases to enrich the existing literature.

Health Policy Basics: Health Insurance Marketplaces

Starting on 1 October 2013, most individuals and small businesses will be able to shop for and enroll in health insurance coverage through their state's health insurance marketplace, also known as an exchange. The health insurance marketplaces will serve as a one-stop resource to help the uninsured and the underinsured find comprehensive health coverage that fits their needs and budget and determine whether they qualify for health insurance tax credits provided by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Physicians may benefit because insured patients are more likely to have a regular source of care, adhere to medical regimens, and access preventive care. However, implementation of the marketplaces may prove challenging if enrollment numbers are insufficient, technical problems arise, and patients are unable to access providers. Despite these potential issues, physicians are encouraged to educate themselves about how the marketplaces work so they can direct their patients to find the coverage that best meets their medical needs.
