Abstract: The GlueX experiment at Jefferson Lab studies photoproduction of mesons using linearly polarized $8.5\,\text{GeV}$ photons impinging on a hydrogen target which is contained within a detector with near-complete coverage for charged and neutral particles. We present measurements of spin-density matrix elements for the photoproduction of the vector meson $\rho$(770). The statistical precision achieved exceeds that of previous experiments for polarized photoproduction in this energy range by orders of magnitude. We confirm a high degree of $s$-channel helicity conservation at small squared four-momentum transfer $t$ and are able to extract the $t$-dependence of natural and unnatural-parity exchange contributions to the production process in detail. We confirm the dominance of natural-parity exchange over the full $t$ range. We also find that helicity amplitudes in which the helicity of the incident photon and the photoproduced $\rho(770)$ differ by two units are negligible for $-t, Comment: 15 pages, 11 figures

Abstract: We report the total and differential cross sections for $J/\psi$ photoproduction with the large acceptance GlueX spectrometer for photon beam energies from the threshold at 8.2~GeV up to 11.44~GeV and over the full kinematic range of momentum transfer squared, $t$. Such coverage facilitates the extrapolation of the differential cross sections to the forward ($t = 0$) point beyond the physical region. The forward cross section is used by many theoretical models and plays an important role in understanding $J/\psi$ photoproduction and its relation to the $J/\psi-$proton interaction. These measurements of $J/\psi$ photoproduction near threshold are also crucial inputs to theoretical models that are used to study important aspects of the gluon structure of the proton, such as the gluon Generalized Parton Distribution (GPD) of the proton, the mass radius of the proton, and the trace anomaly contribution to the proton mass. We observe possible structures in the total cross section energy dependence and find evidence for contributions beyond gluon exchange in the differential cross section close to threshold, both of which are consistent with contributions from open-charm intermediate states., Comment: 15 pages 18 figures

Subjects: Function and Dysfunction of the Nervous System
Abstract: Precise, repeatable genetic access to specific neurons via GAL4/UAS and related methods is a key advantage of Drosophila neuroscience. Neuronal targeting is typically documented using light microscopy of full GAL4 expression patterns, which generally lack the single-cell resolution required for reliable cell type identification. Here we use stochastic GAL4 labeling with the MultiColor FlpOut approach to generate cellular resolution confocal images at large scale. We are releasing aligned images of 74,000 such adult central nervous systems. An anticipated use of this resource is to bridge the gap between neurons identified by electron or light microscopy. Identifying individual neurons that make up each GAL4 expression pattern improves the prediction of split-GAL4 combinations targeting particular neurons. To this end we have made the images searchable on the NeuronBridge website. We demonstrate the potential of NeuronBridge to rapidly and effectively identify neuron matches based on morphology across imaging modalities and datasets.

Abstract: We report the total and differential cross sections for $J/ψ$ photoproduction with the large acceptance GlueX spectrometer for photon beam energies from the threshold at 8.2~GeV up to 11.44~GeV and over the full kinematic range of momentum transfer squared, $t$. Such coverage facilitates the extrapolation of the differential cross sections to the forward ($t = 0$) point beyond the physical region. The forward cross section is used by many theoretical models and plays an important role in understanding $J/ψ$ photoproduction and its relation to the $J/ψ-$proton interaction. These measurements of $J/ψ$ photoproduction near threshold are also crucial inputs to theoretical models that are used to study important aspects of the gluon structure of the proton, such as the gluon Generalized Parton Distribution (GPD) of the proton, the mass radius of the proton, and the trace anomaly contribution to the proton mass. We observe possible structures in the total cross section energy dependence and find evidence for contributions beyond gluon exchange in the differential cross section close to threshold, both of which are consistent with contributions from open-charm intermediate states., 15 pages 18 figures

Abstract: Pelvic exenteration is a complex operation performed for locally advanced and recurrent pelvic cancers. The goal of surgery is to achieve clear margins, therefore identifying adjacent or involved organs, bone, muscle, nerves and/or vascular structures that may need resection. While these extensive resections are potentially curative, they can be associated with substantial morbidity. Recently, there has been a move to centralize care to specialized units, as this facilitates better multidisciplinary care input. Advancements in pelvic oncology and surgical innovation have redefined the boundaries of pelvic exenterative surgery. Combined with improved neoadjuvant therapies, advances in diagnostics, and better reconstructive techniques have provided quicker recovery and better quality of life outcomes, with improved survival This article provides highlights of the current management of advanced pelvic cancers in terms of surgical strategy and potential future developments.

Then, 32 cases that had stopped GC and 17 cases that had continued GC for 7.5 years or longer were evaluated (women:men, stopped GC 12:20, continued GC 13:4, respectively) (PMR:overlap:pure RS3PE syndrome, stopped GC 26:6:0, continued GC 14:2:1, respectively).Methods: The GC continuation rate in all patients was examined using the Kaplan–Meier method. The following were compared between the two groups: age at starting GC; sex; erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, hemoglobin, ferritin, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase before starting GC; days from the onset of symptoms to GC initiation; GC maximum dose; GC dose half a year after its start; presence of relapse; and existence of concomitant malignant disease.Results: The GC continuation rate 7.5 years after GC initiation was 52.5%, higher in women (69.2%), than in men (27.1%). The rates then remained unchanged for 15 years. Hemoglobin was high, and relapse was uncommon in the group that stopped GC. There were no differences in other items.Conclusion: It is difficult to stop GC therapy for PMR in women in Japan, especially in cases with severe anemia.Keywords: discontinuation of therapy, glucocorticoid, polymyalgia rheumatica, remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema syndrome, sex difference

Author: Santos, F, Santos, E, Vogado, LH, Ito, M, Bianchi, A, João Manuel R. S. Tavares, Veras, R, and Faculdade de Engenharia
Abstract: A complication caused by diabetes mellitus is the appearance of lesions in the foot region called Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU). Delayed treatment can lead to infection or ulcer ischemia, leading to lower limb amputation in an advanced stage. This article proposes the DFU-VGG, a convolutional neural network (CNN) inspired by convolutional blocks of VGG-19 but with smaller dense layers and batch normalizations operations. To specify the DFU-VGG parameters, we fine-tuned s even different CNN architectures using two image datasets containing 8,250 images with different color, contrast, resolution, and texture features. The proposed evaluation identifies f our c lasses: none, ischemia, infection, and both. Our approach achieved 93.45% of accuracy and an excellent Kappa index of 89.24%.

Abstract: We treated a man with a chief complaint of memory impairment after the Great East Japan Earthquake. Initially, he was diagnosed with dementia. However, after several tests, neither could a definitive diagnosis of dementia be reached, nor was there any apparent evidence for depression, epilepsy, delirium, or internal medicine diseases. During the earthquake, the patient experienced the severe trauma of watching his wife being swept away by a tsunami. Furthermore, he experienced separation from his family. Because of this traumatic experience, we suspected that dissociative disorder was involved in the development of the memory impairment and thus, we switched to treatments focusing on emotional support. Subsequently, the patient’s memory impairment gradually improved. The present case demonstrates the importance of considering dissociative disorders when examining a patient with memory impairment in areas affected by disasters.

However, many guidelines recommend limiting the use of BZDs because of side effects and lack of evidence regarding long-term efficacy. Moreover, reducing BZDs’ use is difficult because of dependency and the severity of withdrawal symptoms. The efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for mood and anxiety disorders has been demonstrated. However, there is scant evidence that CBT has effectively reduced BZDs use, especially in Japan, where the BZDs prescription rate is high. Therefore, we sought to examine the impact of CBT on reducing BZDs use in a Japanese psychiatric setting.Patients and Methods: Participants were outpatients with mood and anxiety disorders who were prescribed BZD anxiolytics. We retrospectively reviewed changes in BZD anxiolytics prescription dosages during CBT (66 patients; mean number of CBT sessions, 14.6) from our hospital record between April 2015 and September 2017. We checked prescriptions at four time points: at first interview for judging adaptation of CBT (baseline), at the first CBT session, at the last CBT session, and 3 months after the last CBT session.Results: A total of 13 of 66 patients discontinued BZD anxiolytics during CBT, and 21 of 66 reduced their prescribed dosage by 50%. The association between discontinuation and dose-reduction and assessment period was modeled simultaneously using Bayesian hierarchical hurdle model. Results from the modeling showed a significant discontinuation at post-CBT and at 3 months post-CBT session compared to baseline (estimated median odds ratio [OR] post-CBT = 9.79 [95% CI: 4.65– 20.45]; OR at 3 months post-CBT = 11.53 [95% CI: 6.06– 22.33]). Moreover, a significant dose reduction was observed post-intervention (estimated median relative risk = 0.845 [95% CI: 0.729– 0.982]), with a median reduction of 1.7 mg (diazepam conversion) in BZD use.Conclusion: Our results suggest that CBT possibly aids in reducing and discontinuing BZD anxiolytics use for Japanese patients.Keywords: psychiatric diseases, depression, acquired dependency, discontinuation

There was no particular history. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 25/20 in the right eye and 20/20 in the left eye. Papillary swelling in both eyes and disc hemorrhage in the left eye were observed. Gradually, thefrequency of dizziness increased, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) suggested ventricular enlargement, infiltration around the optic nerve, and meningeal carcinomatosis. Increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure was found, and metastatic adenocarcinoma cells were observed by cerebrospinal fluid cytology. A gastroduodenal biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with signet-ring cells. Visual acuity at the final visit was 4/200 in both eyes.Conclusion: If papillary swelling is observed in both eyes, meningeal carcinomatosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis.Keywords: meningeal carcinomatosis, signet-ring cell carcinoma, papillary swelling

Abstract: CO CV CM CI Ryugu A Ryugu C 0.0 0.5 1.0 1.5 44/40CaSRM915a (age corrected) The Hayabusa2 spacecraft has returned samples from the Cb-type asteroid (162173) Ryugu to Earth. Previous petrological and chemical analyses support a close link between Ryugu and CI chondrites that are presumed to be chemically the most primitive meteorites with a solar-like composition. However, Ryugu samples are highly enriched in Ca compared to typical CI chondrites. To identify the cause of this discrepancy, here we report stable Ca isotopic data (expressed as delta 44/40CaSRM915a) for returned Ryugu samples collected from two sites. We found that samples from both sites have similar delta 44/40CaSRM915a (0.58 +/- 0.03 parts per thousand and 0.55 +/- 0.08 parts per thousand, 2 s.d.) that fall within the range defined by CIs. This isotopic similarity suggests that the Ca budget of CIs and Ryugu samples is dominated by carbonates, and the variably higher Ca contents in Ryugu samples are due to the abundant carbonates. Precipitation of carbonates on Ryugu likely coincided with a major episode of aqueous activity dated to have occurred similar to 5 Myr after Solar System formation. Based on the pristine Ryugu samples, the average delta 44/40CaSRM915a of the Solar System is defined to be 0.57 +/- 0.04 parts per thousand (2 s.d.).

Abstract: We present a search for axion-like particles, $a$, produced in photon-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of approximately 4 GeV, focusing on the scenario where the $a$-gluon coupling is dominant. The search uses $a\to\gamma\gamma$ and $a\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ decays, and a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 168 pb$^{-1}$ collected with the GlueX detector. The search for $a\to\gamma\gamma$ decays is performed in the mass range of $180 < m_a < 480$ MeV, while the search for $a\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ decays explores the $600 < m_a < 720$ MeV region. No evidence for a signal is found, and 90% confidence-level exclusion limits are placed on the $a$-gluon coupling strength. These constraints are the most stringent to date over much of the mass ranges considered., Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 2 tables; updated to published version

Abstract: We report on the measurement of spin density matrix elements of the Λ(1520) in the photoproduction reaction γp→Λ(1520)K+, via its subsequent decay to K−p. The measurement was performed as part of the GlueX experimental program in Hall D at Jefferson Laboratory using a linearly polarized photon beam with Eγ=8.2GeV–8.8GeV. These are the first such measurements in this photon energy range. Results are presented in bins of momentum transfer squared, −(t−t0). We compare the results with a Reggeon exchange model and determine that natural exchange amplitudes are dominant in Λ(1520) photoproduction.

Abstract: Although many individuals who engage in mindfulness endorse less anxiety, others experience heightened anxiety when focusing on particular sensations. This study aimed to determine whether specific mindfulness items related to observing internally or externally differ in individuals with panic disorder (PD) or elevated anxiety sensitivity (AS). We examined a clinical sample of 1521 Japanese individuals who completed online self-report questionnaires. Several multiple indicator multiple cause (MIMIC) models investigated differential item functioning among the items in the Observe facet of the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), based on PD and/or AS. This process was repeated to examine the relationship between the Anxiety Sensitivity Index-3 (ASI-3) subscales and particular items of the Observe facet. Increased AS correlated with increased observing generally, and increased AS was associated with greater scores on observing internal items and lower scores on external items. When PD and AS were analyzed simultaneously, only AS remained significant. The cognitive subscale showed the same pattern of results as the total ASI-3 subscale. We conclude that AS modulates the mindfulness experience.

The present study investigated the pathological role of acrolein in the development of COPD.Patients and methods: Acrolein concentration was measured in plasmas obtained from 47 patients with COPD and 18 current smokers without COPD, and in supernatants of homogenized lung tissues obtained from 10 never-smokers, 8 current smokers, and 8 patients with COPD by high-performance liquid chromatography. Oxidant status and antioxidant activity were measured using derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolite (d-ROM) and bio-antioxidant power (BAP), respectively, in the Free Radical Elective Evaluation FRAS4 system. In addition, immunohistochemistry was used to evaluate the over-presentation of acrolein in lung tissues of patients with COPD.Results: Plasma concentrations of acrolein were significantly higher in the patients with COPD than the non-COPD smokers (P

Modified electroconvulsive therapy augmentation is reportedly clinically effective for clozapine-resistant schizophrenia, but few case reports have described the efficacy of combining clozapine and continuous/maintenance ECT for patients with TRS.Methods: We present the case of a young patient with TRS who was treated using combination therapy with clozapine and maintenance ECT (m-ECT).Results: The patient achieved drastic improvement under combination therapy with clozapine and m-ECT. Total Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) score fell markedly by 36 (from 108 to 72) using the combination of clozapine and m-ECT. Behaviors not reflected directly by PANSS score also improved. For example, the problem of being unable to take oral drugs stably because of delusions of poisoning was resolved. Furthermore, the patient maintained improvement under m-ECT, and long-term homestays became possible.Conclusion: Combination therapy with clozapine and m-ECT proved greatly effective in this case. Further clinical trials of this combination therapy for TRS are needed to confirm the effectiveness.

35. Coregulation of pathways in lung cancer patients with EGFR mutation: therapeutic opportunities

Author: Rosell, R, Cardona, AF, Arrieta, O, Aguilar, A, Ito, M, Pedraz, C, Codony-Servat, J, and Santarpia, M
Abstract: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in lung adenocarcinoma are a frequent class of driver mutations. Single EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) provides substantial clinical benefit, but almost nil radiographic complete responses. Patients invariably progress, although survival can reach several years with post-treatment therapies, including EGFR TKIs, chemotherapy or other procedures. Endeavours have been clinically oriented to manage the acquisition of EGFR TKI-resistant mutations; however, basic principles on cancer evolution have not been considered in clinical trials. For years, evidence has displayed rapidly adaptive mechanisms of resistance to selective monotherapy, posing several dilemmas for the practitioner. Strict adherence to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) guidelines is not always practical for addressing the clinical progression that EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma patients suffer. The purpose of this review is to highlight regulatory mechanisms and signalling pathways that cause therapy-induced resistance to EGFR TKIs. It suggests combinatorial therapies that target EGFR, as well as potential mechanisms underlying EGFR-mutant NSCLC, alerting the reader to clinical opportunities that may lead to a deeper and more durable response. Molecular reprogramming contributes to EGFR TKI resistance, and the compiled information is relevant in understanding the development of new combined targeted strategies in EGFR-mutant NSCLC.

Abstract: PURPOSE Although NRG1 fusions are oncogenic drivers across multiple tumor types including lung cancers, these are difficult to study because of their rarity. The global eNRGy1 registry was thus established to characterize NRG1 fusion-positive lung cancers in the largest and most diverse series to date. METHODS From June 2018 to February 2020, a consortium of 22 centers from nine countries in Europe, Asia, and the United States contributed data from patients with pathologically confirmed NRG1 fusion-positive lung cancers. Profiling included DNA-based and/or RNA-based next-generation sequencing and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Anonymized clinical, pathologic, molecular, and response (RECIST v1.1) data were centrally curated and analyzed. RESULTS Although the typified never smoking (57%), mucinous adenocarcinoma (57%), and nonmetastatic (71%) phenotype predominated in 110 patients with NRG1 fusion-positive lung cancer, further diversity, including in smoking history (43%) and histology (43% nonmucinous and 6% nonadenocarcinoma), was elucidated. RNA-based testing identified most fusions (74%). Molecularly, six (of 18) novel 5 ' partners, 20 unique epidermal growth factor domain-inclusive chimeric events, and heterogeneous 5 '/3 ' breakpoints were found. Platinum-doublet and taxane-based (post-platinum-doublet) chemotherapy achieved low objective response rates (ORRs 13% and 14%, respectively) and modest progression-free survival medians (PFS 5.8 and 4.0 months, respectively). Consistent with a low programmed death ligand-1 expressing (28%) and low tumor mutational burden (median: 0.9 mutations/megabase) immunophenotype, the activity of chemoimmunotherapy and single-agent immunotherapy was poor (ORR 0%/PFS 3.3 months and ORR 20%/PFS 3.6 months, respectively). Afatinib achieved an ORR of 25%, not contingent on fusion type, and a 2.8-month median PFS. CONCLUSION NRG1 fusion-positive lung cancers were molecularly, pathologically, and clinically more heterogeneous than previously recognized. The activity of cytotoxic, immune, and targeted therapies was disappointing. Further research examining NRG1-rearranged tumor biology is needed to develop new therapeutic strategies.

Subjects: PD-L1, NRG1, nCounter, KRAS, Mucinous adenocarcinoma
Abstract: Purpose The clinicopathological or genetic features related to the prognosis of mucinous adenocarcinoma are unknown because of its rarity. The clinicopathological or targetable features were investigated for better management of patients with mucinous adenocarcinoma of the lung. Methods We comprehensively evaluated the clinicopathological and genetic features of 60 completely resected mucinous lung adenocarcinomas. Targetable genetic variants were explored using nCounter and polymerase chain reaction, PD-L1 and TTF-1 expression were evaluated using immunohistochemistry. We analyzed the prognostic impact using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Results Of the 60 enrolled patients, 13 (21.7%) had adenocarcinoma in situ/minimally invasive adenocarcinoma, and 47 (78.3%) had invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA). Fifteen patients (25%) showed a pneumonic appearance on computed tomography (CT). CD74-NRG1 fusion, EGFR mutations, and BRAF mutation were detected in three (5%), four (6.7%), and one (1.7%) patient(s), respectively. KRAS mutations were detected in 31 patients (51.7%). Two patients (3.5%) showed immunoreactivity for PD-L1. No in situ or minimally invasive cases recurred. IMA patients with pneumonic appearance had significantly worse recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) (p < 0.001). Furthermore, IMA patients harboring KRAS mutations had worse RFS (p = 0.211). Multivariate analysis revealed that radiological pneumonic appearance was significantly associated with lower RFS (p < 0.003) and OS (p = 0.012). KRAS mutations served as an unfavorable status for RFS (p = 0.043). Conclusion Mucinous adenocarcinoma had a low frequency of targetable genetic variants and PD-L1 immunoreactivity; however, KRAS mutations were frequent. Pneumonic appearance on CT imaging and KRAS mutations were clinicopathological features associated with a worse prognosis.

39. Lead removal in zinc leach residues from Kabwe, Zambia by carrier-in-pulp method using zero-valent iron

Author: Marthias Silwamba, Ito, M., Fukushima, T., Park, I., Jeon, S., Tabelin, C. B., and Hiroyoshi, N.
Abstract: Zinc leach residues (ZLRs) are hazardous materials because they contain toxic heavy metals such as lead (Pb) and pose serious risks to the ecosystem and people living nearby. This study investigated Pb removal from ZLRs collected from Kabwe (Zambia), one of the most Pb-polluted towns in the world, using carrier-in-pulp method. ZLRs and zero-valent iron (ZVI), which was used as the carrier, were simultaneously mixed in NaCl solution. Pb was extracted from ZRLs and formed Pb-chloride complexes, which was reductively precipitated as Pb0 on ZVI. The Pb-loaded ZVI was then separated from the leach pulp by magnetic separation. Pb removal was evaluated under various conditions such as leaching time, ZVI dosage and solution composition. The maximum Pb removal from ZLRs (about 78 wt% Pb) was collated with Pb bound to acid leachable solid phases determined by sequential extraction. Comparing Pb removal when ZLRs were leached with and without the addition of ZVI, it was found that the addition of ZVI significantly improved the removal of Pb at low concentrations of NaCl.

43. Temporal evolution of proto-Izu–Bonin–Mariana arc volcanism over 10 Myr: Constraints from statistical analysis of melt inclusion compositions

Author: Hamada, M, Iwamori, H, Brandl, PA, Ushikubo, T, Shimizu, K, Ito, M, Li, H, and Savov, IP
Abstract: International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 351 ‘Izu–Bonin–Mariana (IBM) Arc Origins’ drilled Site U1438, situated in the northwestern region of the Philippine Sea. Here volcaniclastic sediments and the igneous basement of the proto-IBM volcanic arc were recovered. To gain a better understanding of the magmatic processes and evolution of the proto-IBM arc, we studied melt inclusions hosted in fresh igneous minerals and sampled from 30–40 Myr old deposits, reflecting the maturation of arc volcanism following subduction initiation at 52 Ma. We performed a novel statistical analysis on the major element composition of 237 representative melt inclusions selected from a previously published dataset, covering the full age range between 30 and 40 Ma. In addition, we analysed volatiles (H2O, S, F and Cl) and P2O5 by secondary ion mass spectrometry for a subset of 47 melt inclusions selected from the dataset. Based on statistical analysis of the major element composition of melt inclusions and by considering their trace and volatile element compositions, we distinguished five main clusters of melt inclusions, which can be further separated into a total of eight subclusters. Among the eight subclusters, we identified three major magma types: (1) enriched medium-K magmas, which form a tholeiitic trend (30–38 Ma); (2) enriched medium-K magmas, which form a calc-alkaline trend (30–39 Ma); (3) depleted low-K magmas, which form a calc-alkaline trend (35–40 Ma). We demonstrate the following: (1) the eruption of depleted low-K calc-alkaline magmas occurred prior to 40 Ma and ceased sharply at 35 Ma; (2) the eruption of depleted low-K calc-alkaline magmas, enriched medium-K calc-alkaline magmas and enriched medium-K tholeiitic magmas overlapped between 35 and 38–39 Ma; (3) the eruption of enriched medium-K tholeiitic and enriched medium-K calc-alkaline magmas became predominant thereafter at the proto-IBM arc. Identification of three major magma types is distinct from the previous work, in which enriched medium-K calc-alkaline magmas and depleted low-K calc-alkaline magmas were not identified. This indicates the usefulness of our statistical analysis as a powerful tool to partition a mixture of multivariable geochemical datasets, such as the composition of melt inclusions in this case. Our data suggest that a depleted mantle source had been replaced by an enriched mantle source owing to convection beneath the proto-IBM arc from >40 to 35 Ma. Finally, thermodynamic modelling indicates that the overall geochemical variation of melt inclusions assigned to each cluster can be broadly reproduced either by crystallization differentiation assuming P = 50 MPa (∼2 km deep) and ∼2 wt% H2O (almost saturated H2O content at 50 MPa) or P = 300 MPa (∼15 km deep) and ∼6 wt% H2O (almost saturated H2O content at 300 MPa). Assuming oxygen fugacity (fO2) of log fO2 equal to +1 relative to the nickel–nickel oxide (NNO) buffer best reproduces the overall geochemical variation of melt inclusions, but assuming more oxidizing conditions (log fO2 = +1 to +2 NNO) probably reproduces the geochemical variation of enriched medium-K and calc-alkaline melt inclusions (30–39 Ma).

Abstract: RESUMEN Se evaluó el efecto de la temperatura sobre la desnaturalización de proteínas y la reacción de Maillard en leche entera y descremada con lactosa hidrolizada. Las leches hidrolizadas se trataron térmicamente a 100, 110, 120 y 130 °C durante un período de 1 hora y se midió la concentración de glucosa, el grado de pardeamiento y la desnaturalización de proteínas. El grado de dorado en la leche entera varió de 14.4 (100 °C) a 42.6 (130 °C). Para la leche descremada fue de 20.2 (100 °C) a 38.0 (130 °C). La concentración de glucosa en leche entera (47% p/v) y en leche descremada (41% p/v) después del tratamiento térmico (130 °C) mostró una reducción significativa en relación con el control (25 °C). El efecto de la temperatura en la desnaturalización de proteínas en leche entera y descremada en relación con el control (25 °C) fue del 100%. La leche tratada térmicamente con lactosa hidrolizada promovió la desnaturalización de proteínas con un aumento del pardeamiento característico de la reacción de Maillard, lo que afectó la calidad nutricional. ABSTRACT The effect of temperature in protein denaturation and Maillard reaction in whole and skim milk with hydrolyzed lactose was evaluated. Hydrolyzed milk was thermally treated at 100, 110, 120 and 130 °C over a period of 1 hour and glucose concentration, browning degree and protein denaturation were measured. The browning degree in whole milk varied from 14.42 (100 °C) to 42.63 (130 °C) and 20.21 (100 °C) to 38.03 (130 °C) in skim milk. Glucose concentration in whole milk (47% - w/v) and skim milk (41% - w/v) after heat treatment (130 °C) showed a significant reduction in relation to the control (25 °C). The temperature effect in protein denaturation in whole and skim milk in relation to the control (25 °C) was 100%. Thermally treated milk with hydrolyzed lactose promoted protein denaturation with increasing browning characteristic of the Maillard reaction, thus affecting the nutritional quality.

Abstract: We report a measurement of the $��^-$ photoproduction beam asymmetry for the reaction $\vec�� p \rightarrow ��^- ��^{++}$ using data from the GlueX experiment in the photon beam energy range 8.2--8.8 GeV. The asymmetry $��$ is measured as a function of four-momentum transfer $t$ to the $��^{++}$ and compared to phenomenological models. We find that $��$ varies as a function of $t$: negative at smaller values and positive at higher values of $|t|$. The reaction can be described theoretically by $t$-channel particle exchange requiring pseudoscalar, vector, and tensor intermediaries. In particular, this reaction requires charge exchange, allowing us to probe pion exchange and the significance of higher-order corrections to one-pion exchange at low momentum transfer. Constraining production mechanisms of conventional mesons may aid in the search for and study of unconventional mesons. This is the first measurement of the process at this energy., 7 pages, 5 figures

Abstract: Preprint available on bioRxiv (https://doi.org/10.1101/826552) Abstract: Taxon sampling is a central aspect of phylogenetic study design, but it has received limited attention in the context of molecular dating and especially in the framework of total-evidence dating, a widely used dating approach that directly integrates molecular and morphological information from extant and fossil taxa. We here assess the impact of different outgroup sampling schemes on age estimates in a total-evidence dating analysis under the uniform tree prior. Our study group are Pimpliformes, a highly diverse, rapidly radiating group of parasitoid wasps of the family Ichneumonidae. We cover 201 extant and 79 fossil taxa, including the oldest fossils of the family from the Early Cretaceous and the first unequivocal representatives of extant subfamilies from the mid Paleogene. Based on newly compiled molecular data from ten nuclear genes and a morphological matrix that includes 222 characters, we show that age estimates become both older and less precise with the inclusion of more distant and more poorly sampled outgroups. In addition, we discover an artefact that might be detrimental for total-evidence dating: “bare-branch attraction”, namely high attachment probabilities of, especially, older fossils to terminal branches for which morphological data are missing. After restricting outgroup sampling and adding morphological data for the previously attracting, bare branches, we recover a Middle and Early Jurassic origin for Pimpliformes and Ichneumonidae, respectively. This first age estimate for the group not only suggests an older origin than previously thought, but also that diversification of the crown group happened before the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary. Our case study demonstrates that in order to obtain robust age estimates, total-evidence dating studies need to be based on a thorough and balanced sampling of both extant and fossil taxa, with the aim of minimizing evolutionary rate heterogeneity and missing morphological Information.

Abstract: We report on the measurement of the beam asymmetry \ud Σ\ud for the reactions \ud →\ud γ\ud p\ud →\ud p\ud η\ud and \ud →\ud γ\ud p\ud →\ud p\ud η\ud ′\ud from the GlueX experiment using an 8.2–8.8-GeV linearly polarized tagged photon beam incident on a liquid hydrogen target in Hall D at Jefferson Laboratory. These measurements are made as a function of momentum transfer \ud −\ud t\ud with significantly higher statistical precision than our earlier \ud η\ud measurements and are the first measurements of \ud η\ud ′\ud in this energy range. We compare the results to theoretical predictions based on \ud t\ud -channel quasiparticle exchange. We also compare the ratio of \ud Σ\ud η\ud to \ud Σ\ud η\ud ′\ud to these models as this ratio is predicted to be sensitive to the amount of \ud s\ud ¯\ud s\ud exchange in the production. We find that photoproduction of both \ud η\ud and \ud η\ud ′\ud is dominated by natural parity exchange with little dependence on \ud −\ud t\ud .

Abstract: Takahiro Kataoka,1 Tomoya Nishida,1 Azusa Murata,1 Mayuka Ito,1 Naoki Isogai,1 Rie Horai,1 Takashi Kojima,1,2 Yoko Yoshida,1 Tomoaki Nakamura1 1Nagoya Eye Clinic, Nagoya, Japan; 2Department of Ophthalmology, Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan Purpose: This retrospective case-matched study aimed to compare visual and refractive outcomes between small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and LASIK. Patients and methods: Patients who underwent SMILE (34 eyes of 23 patients) or LASIK (34 eyes of 24 patients) were enrolled and matched according to preoperative manifest refractive spherical equivalents. The mean preoperative manifest refractive spherical equivalent was −4.69±0.6 and −4.67±0.64 D in the SMILE and LASIK groups, respectively. The safety, efficacy, and predictability were compared 3 months after surgery. Changes in corneal refractive power from the center to peripheral points and their maintenance ratios were analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results: In the SMILE and LASIK groups, 82.4% and 85.3% of patients, respectively, achieved 20/13 or better uncorrected distance visual acuity (p=1.00). There were no eyes that lost two or more lines of corrected distance visual acuity in either group. The maintenance ratios of corneal refractive power changes at the peripheral points in the SMILE group were significantly higher than those in the LASIK group (p
