TL;DR: This work investigates the magnetic system of a few layers of Gd on bulk Fe in the presence of a magnetic field using mean-field theory and a simple model and finds that at moderate temperatures and low fields the system is in an aligned state.
Abstract: We investigate the magnetic system of a few layers of Gd on bulk Fe in the presence of a magnetic field using mean-field theory and a simple model. At moderate temperatures and low fields the system is in an aligned state where all the Fe spins point along the field direction and, because of the antiferromagnetic coupling of the Fe spins to the Gd spins, all the Gd spins are antiparallel to the field. For higher fields there is a phase transition to a twisted spin state where the Fe and Gd spins near the interface are at an angle with respect to the applied field.

TL;DR: Chemoembolization using Irinotecan loaded beads was safe and effective in the treatment of patients as demonstrated by a minimal complication rate and acceptable tumor response.
Abstract: Following failure of standard systemic chemotherapy, the role of hepatic transarterial therapy for colorectal hepatic metastasis continues to evolve as the experience with this technique matures. The aim of this study to gain a better understanding of the value of drug eluting bead therapy when administered to patients with unresectable colorectal hepatic metastasis. This was an open-label, multi-center, single arm study, of unresectable colorectal hepatic metastasis patients who had failed standard therapy from 10/2006-10/2008. Patients received repeat embolizations with Irinotecan loaded beads(max 100 mg per embolization) per treating physician's discretion. Fifty-five patients underwent 99 treatments using Irinotecan drug eluting beads. The median number of total treatments per patient was 2(range of 1-5). Median length of hospital stay was 23 hours(range 23 hours - 10 days). There were 30(30%) sessions associated with adverse reactions during or after the treatment. The median disease free and overall survival from the time of first treatment was 247 days and 343 days. Six patients(10%) were downstaged from their original disease status. Of these, four were treated with surgery and two with RFA. Neither number of liver lesions, size of liver lesions or extent of liver replacement( 25%) were predictors of overall survival. Only the presence of extrahepatic disease(p = 0,001), extent of prior chemotherapy (failed 1st and 2nd line vs > 2 line failure)(p = 0,007) were predictors of overall survival in multivariate analysis. Chemoembolization using Irinotecan loaded beads was safe and effective in the treatment of patients as demonstrated by a minimal complication rate and acceptable tumor response.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine atmospheric drag models and data usage involved with propagating near-Earth satellites, and quantify sources of uncertainty in satellite propagation resulting from several atmospheric models, or from the treatment of input data indices.
Abstract: This paper examines atmospheric drag models and data usage involved with propagating near-Earth satellites. Many studies, and even some International standards try to promote one model over another, rather than identifying the behavior of the numerous parameters necessary to select the best model for a particular mission and application. We briefly summarize existing information, and quantify sources of uncertainty in satellite propagation resulting from several atmospheric models, or from the treatment of input data indices. The goal is for researchers to understand the relative impact of using different models and data indices so they can properly assess which model and data input to use.

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that ProTaper rotary files may be safely reused at least four times, and the size of the rotary file, among other factors, will determine how many times a particular file should be used.
