Differentiation of histological calcification classifications in breast cancer using ultrashort echo time and chemical shift-encoded imaging MRI by Yazan Ayoub, Sai Man Cheung, Boddor Maglan, Nicholas Senn, Kwok-Shing Chan, Kwok-Shing Chan, Jiabao He

“…Subtypes of calcification, discernible from histology, has been suggested to have prognostic value in DCIS, while the lipid composition of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids may be altered in de novo synthesis with potential sensitivity to the difference between DCIS and IDC. We therefore set out to examine calcification using ultra short echo time (UTE) MRI and lipid composition using chemical shift-encoded imaging (CSEI), as markers for histological calcification classification, in the initial ex vivo step towards in vivo application.MethodsTwenty female patients, with mean age (range) of 57 (35–78) years, participated in the study. …”

Fine-scale hydrodynamics around St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands. Part II: variability in residence time in coastal bays by Yan Jia, Weifeng (Gordon) Zhang, Amy Apprill, T. Aran Mooney

“…For a westward-facing bay with the axis aligned the wind, persistent wind-driven surface flows carry surface particles out of the bays quickly, resulting in a low residence time in the bay; when the bay axis is misaligned with the wind, winds can trap surface particles on the west coast in the bay and dramatically increase their residence time. …”

Dually-functional riboflavin macromolecule as a supramolecular initiator and reducing agent in temporally-controlled low ppm ATRP by I. Zaborniak, P. Chmielarz

“…Polymerizations were characterized in a well-controlled manner, affording polymers with a narrow dispersity (Ð = 1.22–1.25). Four-arms polymers were also received by an approach never described before – temporally-controlled multi-step seATRP under constant current conditions, giving precisely-defined polymer brushes (Ð = 1.26) with preserved chain-end functionality (DCF < 1%), despite stopping and restarting the polymerization. …”

Transapical electrosurgical laceration and stabilization of mitral clips followed by transcatheter mitral valve replacement—A one-stop shopCentral MessagePerspective by Joerg Kellermair, MD, Ilinca Damian, MD, Michael Grund, MD, Georg Hagleitner, MD, Florian Huber, MD, Michael Resl, MD, Gregor Sulzbacher, MD, Martin Clodi, MD, Clemens Steinwender, MD, Andreas Zierer, MD

“…Hereby we tested the hypothesis that a modified transapical ELASTA CLIP technique can be safely applied transapically allowing a straightforward one-stop shop access strategy. Methods: We developed the procedural steps in a porcine passive-beating heart model and applied the modified technique with subsequent TMVR in 2 consecutive patients with severe mitral regurgitation after previous TEER. …”
