TL;DR: In this paper, a study was carried out in order to understand the early diagenetic redistribution of phosphorus and relevant mass balance in the sediments of the East Sea by collecting 11 box cores during two cruises during May 1993 and October 1995.

TL;DR: The cloning and expression of cN-I provides definitive evidence of its ability to produce adenosine during ATP breakdown, and obtained a full-length clone encoding a novel 40-kDa peptide that was most abundant in heart, brain, and breast muscle.

TL;DR: Results are consistent with the hypothesis of an allochthonous origin of picocyanobacteria in the coastal Arctic Ocean, and imply survival but little net growth of picokyanob bacteria under the present conditions in northern high-latitude seas.

TL;DR: This real-time PCR–based prognostic model predicts overall and disease-free survival significantly better than clinical stage and tumor size in patients with early stage lung adenocarcinoma and performs especially well in Patients with stage I disease.
Abstract: Purpose: Clinical staging does not adequately risk stratify patients with early stage non–small cell lung cancer. We sought to generate a real-time PCR (RT-PCR)–based prognostic model in patients with early stage lung adenocarcinoma, the dominant histology of lung cancer in the United States. Experimental Design: We studied gene expression of 61 candidate genes in 107 patients with completely surgically resected lung adenocarcinoma using RT-PCR. We used crossvalidation methods to select and validate a prognostic model based on the expression of a limited number of genes. A risk score was generated based on model coefficients, and survival of patients with high- and low-risk scores were analyzed. Results: We generated a four-gene model based on expression of WNT3a, ERBB3, LCK , and RND3 . Risk score predicted mortality better than clinical stage or tumor size (adjusted hazard ratio, 6.7; 95% confidence interval, 1.6-28.9; P = 0.001). Among 70 patients with stage I disease, 5-year overall survival was 87% among patients with low-risk scores, and 38% among patients with high-risk scores ( P = 0.0002). Among all patients, 5-year overall survival was 62% and 41%, respectively ( P = 0.0054). Disease-free survival was also significantly different among low- and high-risk score patients. Conclusions: This multigene assay predicts overall and disease-free survival significantly better than clinical stage and tumor size in patients with early stage lung adenocarcinoma and performs especially well in patients with stage I disease. Prospective clinical trials are needed to determine whether high-risk patients with stage I disease benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy.

TL;DR: Despite the introduction of new antiseptics in surgery, PVI is still the preeminent antiseptic measure in ophthalmology and its use is economically reasonable, with the range of indications for topical use of antibiotics decreasing.
Abstract: Purpose of reviewPovidone–iodine (PVI) is a disinfectant and antiseptic agent used for preoperative preparation of the skin and mucous membranes, as well as for the treatment of contaminated wounds. Currently regimens for prophylaxis against postsurgical endophthalmitis are being modified, including
