Renal arteries: anatomic study for surgical and radiological practice.

Abstract: The renal arterial supply was analyzed in 266 kidneys dissected from 133 fixed adults subjects. The anatomical findings are presented: 1 hilar artery in 53.3% of the cases, 1 hilar artery with 1 superior pole extra-hilar branch in 14.3%, 2 hilar arteries in 7.9%, 3 hilar arteries in 1.9%, superior polar artery in 6.8%, inferior polar artery in 5.3% and other variations in 8.5%. The urological and radiological implications of these findings in kidney transplantation, renovascular hypertension, renal trauma, interventional radiology, conservative surgery and oncologic surgery are discussed.

Measurement of jet fragmentation in PbPb and pp collisions at root s(NN)=2.76 TeV

Abstract: The jet fragmentation function of inclusive jets with transverse momentum p_T above 100GeV/c in PbPb collisions has been measured using reconstructed charged particles with p_T above 1GeV/c in a cone of radius 0.3 around the jet axis. A data sample of PbPb collisions collected in 2011 at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of √sNN = 2.76 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 150μb^(−1) is used. The results for PbPb collisions as a function of collision centrality and jet transverse momentum are compared to reference distributions based on pp data collected at the same center-of-mass energy in 2013, with an integrated luminosity of 5.3pb^(−1). A centrality-dependent modification of the fragmentation function is found. For the most central collisions, a significant enhancement is observed in the PbPb/pp fragmentation function ratio for charged particles with p_T less than 3GeV/c. This enhancement is observed for all jet p_T bins studied.
