TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that non-volatile organic compounds can be extracted from ionic liquids using supercritical carbon dioxide, which is widely used to extract large organic compounds with minimal pollution.
Abstract: Many organic solvents evaporate into the atmosphere with detrimental effects on the environment and human health. But room-temperature ionic liquids, with low viscosity and no measurable vapour pressure1, can be used as environmentally benign media for a range of industrially important chemical processes2,3,4,5,6, despite uncertainties about thermal stability and sensitivity to oxygen and water. It is difficult to recover products, however, as extraction with water7 works only for hydrophilic products, distillation is not suitable for poorly volatile or thermally labile products, and liquid-liquid extraction using organic solvents results in cross-contamination. We find that non-volatile organic compounds can be extracted from ionic liquids using supercritical carbon dioxide, which is widely used to extract large organic compounds with minimal pollution8. Carbon dioxide dissolves in the liquid to facilitate extraction, but the ionic liquid does not dissolve in carbon dioxide, so pure product can be recovered.

TL;DR: IDSA considers adherence to these guidelines to be voluntary, with the ultimate determination regarding their application to be made by the physician in the light of each patient's individual circumstances.
Abstract: It is important to realize that guidelines cannot always account for individual variation among patients. They are not intended to supplant physician judgment with respect to particular patients or special clinical situations. IDSA considers adherence to these guidelines to be voluntary, with the ultimate determination regarding their application to be made by the physician in the light of each patient's individual circumstances.

TL;DR: The Alzheimer Disease Genetics Consortium performed a genome-wide association study of late-onset Alzheimer disease using a three-stage design consisting of a discovery stage (stage 1), two replication stages (stages 2 and 3), and both joint analysis and meta-analysis approaches were used.
Abstract: The Alzheimer Disease Genetics Consortium (ADGC) performed a genome-wide association study of late-onset Alzheimer disease using a three-stage design consisting of a discovery stage (stage 1) and two replication stages (stages 2 and 3). Both joint analysis and meta-analysis approaches were used. We obtained genome-wide significant results at MS4A4A (rs4938933; stages 1 and 2, meta-analysis P (P(M)) = 1.7 × 10(-9), joint analysis P (P(J)) = 1.7 × 10(-9); stages 1, 2 and 3, P(M) = 8.2 × 10(-12)), CD2AP (rs9349407; stages 1, 2 and 3, P(M) = 8.6 × 10(-9)), EPHA1 (rs11767557; stages 1, 2 and 3, P(M) = 6.0 × 10(-10)) and CD33 (rs3865444; stages 1, 2 and 3, P(M) = 1.6 × 10(-9)). We also replicated previous associations at CR1 (rs6701713; P(M) = 4.6 × 10(-10), P(J) = 5.2 × 10(-11)), CLU (rs1532278; P(M) = 8.3 × 10(-8), P(J) = 1.9 × 10(-8)), BIN1 (rs7561528; P(M) = 4.0 × 10(-14), P(J) = 5.2 × 10(-14)) and PICALM (rs561655; P(M) = 7.0 × 10(-11), P(J) = 1.0 × 10(-10)), but not at EXOC3L2, to late-onset Alzheimer's disease susceptibility.

TL;DR: Overall, there was no significant difference in the rates of death and major cardiovascular events between patients undergoing prompt revascularization and those undergoing medical therapy or between strategies of insulin sensitization and insulin provision.
Abstract: At 5 years, rates of survival did not differ significantly between the revascularization group (88.3%) and the medical therapy group (87.8%, P = 0.97) or between the in sulin sensitization group (88.2%) and the insulin provision group (87.9%, P = 0.89). The rates of freedom from major cardiovascular events also did not differ signifi cantly among the groups: 77.2% in the revascularization group and 75.9% in the medical treatment group (P = 0.70) and 77.7% in the insulin sensitization group and 75.4% in the insulin provision group (P = 0.13). In the PCI stratum, there was no sig nificant difference in primary end points between the revascularization group and the medical therapy group. In the CABG stratum, the rate of major cardiovascular events was significantly lower in the revascularization group (22.4%) than in the medical therapy group (30.5%, P = 0.01; P = 0.002 for interaction between stratum and study group). Adverse events and serious adverse events were generally similar among the groups, although severe hypoglycemia was more frequent in the insulin provision group (9.2%) than in the insulin sensitization group (5.9%, P = 0.003). Conclusions Overall, there was no significant difference in the rates of death and major cardio vascular events between patients undergoing prompt revascularization and those undergoing medical therapy or between strategies of insulin sensitization and in sulin provision.

TL;DR: The criteria and significance of early or precursor lesions and the identification of certain lymphoid neoplasms largely associated with particular age groups, such as children and the elderly are addressed, and the issue of borderline categories having overlapping features with large B-cell lymphomas is reviewed.
