TL;DR: NAFLD fibrosis score appears to be the best indicator of patients at risk, based on HRs, for liver-related complications or death in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that in fit patients (ASA I and II), single-stage laparoscopic treatment is the better option, and preoperative ESE should be confined to poor-risk patients—i.e., those with cholangitis or severe pancreatitis.
Abstract: Background: The current management of patients with gallstone disease and ductal calculi consists of endoscopic stone extraction (ESE) followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Following the advent of techniques of laparoscopic ductal stone clearance, an alternative single-stage laparoscopic treatment was introduced for these patients. The European Association of Endoscopic Surgery (E.A.E.S.) set up a ductal stone trial to compare the relative efficacy and outcome of these two management options.

TL;DR: In this article, the central-zone vibrational spectrum of α-quartz (SiO2) is calculated by building the Hessian matrix numerically from the analytical gradients of the energy with respect to the atomic coordinates, and the results obtained with four different Hamiltonians, namely Hartree-Fock, DFT in its local (LDA) and nonlocal gradient corrected (PBE) approximation, and hybrid B3LYP, are discussed, showing that B3QLP performs far better than LDA and PBE, which in turn provide better results than HF
Abstract: The central-zone vibrational spectrum of α-quartz (SiO2) is calculated by building the Hessian matrix numerically from the analytical gradients of the energy with respect to the atomic coordinates. The nonanalytical part is obtained with a finite field supercell approach for the high-frequency dielectric constant and a Wannier function scheme for the evaluation of Born charges. The results obtained with four different Hamiltonians, namely Hartree–Fock, DFT in its local (LDA) and nonlocal gradient corrected (PBE) approximation, and hybrid B3LYP, are discussed, showing that B3LYP performs far better than LDA and PBE, which in turn provide better results than HF, as the mean absolute difference from experimental frequencies is 6, 18, 21, and 44 cm−1, respectively, when a split valence basis set containing two sets of polarization functions is used. For the LDA results, comparison is possible with previous calculations based on the Density Functional Perturbation Theory and usage of a plane-wave basis set. The effects associated with the use of basis sets of increasing size are also investigated. It turns out that a split valence plus a single set of d polarization functions provides frequencies that differ from the ones obtained with a double set of d functions and a set of f functions on all atoms by on average less than 5 cm−1. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

TL;DR: The hematologic criteria recommended for Sézary syndrome are intended to identify patients with a worse prognosis compared with the other E-CTCL subsets and consist of one or more of the following: an absolute SéZary cell count and a CD4/CD8 ratio of 10 or higher.
Abstract: Two conferences were sponsored by the International Society for Cutaneous Lymphomas (ISCL) to gain consensus on definitions and terminology for clinical use in erythrodermic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (E-CTCL). Three subsets of E-CTCL were defined: Sezary syndrome ("leukemic phase" E-CTCL), erythrodermic mycosis fungoides (secondary E-CTCL that develops in patients with mycosis fungoides), and E-CTCL, not otherwise defined. The hematologic criteria recommended for Sezary syndrome are intended to identify patients with a worse prognosis compared with the other E-CTCL subsets and consist of one or more of the following: (1) an absolute Sezary cell count of 1000 cells/mm3 or more; (2) a CD4/CD8 ratio of 10 or higher caused by an increase in circulating T cells and/or an aberrant loss or expression of pan-T cell markers by flow cytometry; (3) increased lymphocyte counts with evidence of a T-cell clone in the blood by the Southern blot or polymerase chain reaction technique; or (4) a chromosomally abnormal T-cell clone. For staging purposes, it is proposed that these criteria define the B2 blood rating and that the B2 rating be considered equivalent to nodal involvement.
