Effect of Casting Conditions on the Fracture Strength of Al-5 Mg Alloy Castings by Fawzia Hamed Basuny, Mootaz Ghazy, Abdel-Razik Y. Kandeil, Mahmoud Ahmed El-Sayed

“…In this work, the Weibull moduli for the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and % elongation of sand cast bars produced under different casting conditions were compared as indicators of casting reliability which was expected to be a function of the oxide film content. The results showed that the use of a thin runner along with the use of filters can significantly eliminate the surface turbulence of the melt during mould filling which would lead to the avoidance of the generation and entrainment of surface oxide films and in turn produce castings with more reliable and reproducible mechanical properties compared to the castings produced using conventional running systems.…”

Prior chemotherapy deteriorates T-cell quality for CAR T-cell therapy in B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma by Annette Künkele, Andrea Stroux, Olaf Penack, Lars Bullinger, Benedikt Obermayer, Charlotte Junkuhn, Phillip Schiele, Anna Luzie Walter, Frederik Hamm, David Busch, Mareike Frick, Frederik Damm, Julia Polansky, Marco Frentsch, Il-Kang Na, Jonas Kath, Dimitrios L Wagner

“…Their effectiveness thus hinges on the functionality of a patient’s own T cells. Since CAR T-cell therapy is currently only approved for advanced cancers after at least one line of chemotherapy, we evaluated the potential negative effects of prior exposure to chemotherapy on T-cell functionality.Methods We studied T cells of two B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma patient cohorts, one collected before treatment (pre-therapy) and the other after one or more (median 3) lines of chemotherapy (post-therapy). …”
