TL;DR: The hypothesis that intestinal microbiota may help protect against AD, in part, by supporting the generation of select SCFAs, which interfere with the formation of toxic soluble Aβ aggregates is supported.
Abstract: Background: Dietary fibers are metabolized by gastrointestinal (GI) bacteria into short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). We investigated the potential role of these SCFAs in β-amyloid (Aβ) mediated pathological processes that play key roles in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis.Research design and methods: Multiple complementary assays were used to investigate individual SCFAs for their dose-responsive effects in interfering with the assembly of Aβs1-40 and Aβ1-42 peptides into soluble neurotoxic Aβ aggregates.Results: We found that several select SCFAs are capable of potently inhibiting Aβ aggregations, in vitro.Conclusion: Our studies support the hypothesis that intestinal microbiota may help protect against AD, in part, by supporting the generation of select SCFAs, which interfere with the formation of toxic soluble Aβ aggregates.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered super-critical accretion with angular momentum onto stellar-mass black holes as a possible mechanism for growing billion-solar mass black holes from light seeds at early times.
Abstract: We consider super-critical accretion with angular momentum onto stellar-mass black holes as a possible mechanism for growing billion-solar-mass black holes from light seeds at early times. We use the radiatively inefficient ''slim disk'' solution—advective, optically thick flows that generalize the standard geometrically thin disk model—to show how mildly super-Eddington intermittent accretion may significantly ease the problem of assembling the first massive black holes when the universe was less than 0.8 Gyr old. Because of the low radiative efficiencies of slim disks around non-rotating as well as rapidly rotating black holes, the mass e-folding timescale in this regime is nearly independent of the spin parameter. The conditions that may lead to super-critical growth in the early universe are briefly discussed.

TL;DR: Overall serious adverse events after AM were lower than previously reported, however, patients with left ventricular ejection fraction <50%, ventricular arrhythmias, or low cardiac output syndrome at presentation were at higher risk compared with uncomplicated cases that had a benign prognosis and low risk of subsequentleft ventricular systolic dysfunction.
Abstract: Background: There is controversy about the outcome of patients with acute myocarditis (AM), and data are lacking on how patients admitted with suspected AM are managed. We report characteristics, i...

TL;DR: Irrespective of subtype and stage, conservative surgery should become the standard approach to treating most patients with malignant ovarian germ cell tumors, and Fertility seems to be only marginally affected by treatments.
Abstract: PURPOSE: Germ cell ovarian tumors are curable. The possible sequelae of chemotherapy on long-term survivors are still unknown, but these patients may expect normal lives. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome and reproductive function in a population of women treated since 1982. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between 1982 and 1996, 169 women with malignant germ cell ovarian tumors were seen (70 dysgerminomas, 28 endodermal sinus tumors, 24 mixed tumors, and 47 immature teratomas). Seventy-one had advanced or recurrent disease. Fertility-sparing surgery was performed in 138 (81%) women, 81 of whom received postoperative chemotherapy. RESULTS: With a median follow-up of 67 months, the survival rate was 94% for dysgerminoma, 89% for endodermal sinus tumors, 100% for mixed types, and 98% for immature teratoma. For women who were treated conservatively, the survival rate was 98%, 90%, 100%, and 100%, respectively. Two women had adnexal recurrences, and both received salvage treatment. After treatment, all ...

TL;DR: The search for long-lived dark photons is the first to achieve sensitivity using a displaced-vertex signature and the constraints placed on promptlike dark photons are the most stringent to date for the mass range 10.6
Abstract: Searches are performed for both promptlike and long-lived dark photons, A^{'}, produced in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, using A^{'}→μ^{+}μ^{-} decays and a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.6 fb^{-1} collected with the LHCb detector. The promptlike A^{'} search covers the mass range from near the dimuon threshold up to 70 GeV, while the long-lived A^{'} search is restricted to the low-mass region 214
