TL;DR: The discovery of the isoprostanes as lipid peroxidation products which can be measured by gas chromatography mass spectrometry or immunoassay has opened a new avenue by which to quantify lipid per oxidation in vivo, and will be discussed in detail.
Abstract: Lipid peroxidation results in the formation of conjugated dienes, lipid hydroperoxides and degradation products such as alkanes, aldehydes and isoprostanes. The approach to the quantitative assessment of lipid peroxidation depends on whether the samples involve complex biological material obtained in vivo, or whether the samples involve relatively simple mixtures obtained in vitro. Samples obtained in vivo contain a large number of products which themselves may undergo metabolism. The measurement of conjugated diene formation is generally applied as a dynamic quantitation e.g. during the oxidation of LDL, and is not generally applied to samples obtained in vivo. Lipid hydroperoxides readily decompose, but can be measured directly and indirectly by a variety of techniques. The measurement of MDA by the TBAR assay is non-specific, and is generally poor when applied to biological samples. More recent assays based on the measurement of MDA or HNE-lysine adducts are likely to be more applicable to biological samples, since adducts of these reactive aldehydes are relatively stable. The discovery of the isoprostanes as lipid peroxidation products which can be measured by gas chromatography mass spectrometry or immunoassay has opened a new avenue by which to quantify lipid peroxidation in vivo, and will be discussed in detail.

TL;DR: In this article, the classical primary somatosensory cortex of monkeys consists of as many as four separate body representations rather than just one, and two complete body surface representations occupy cortical fields 3b and 1.
Abstract: Microelectrode mapping experiments indicate that the classical primary somatosensory cortex of monkeys consists of as many as four separate body representations rather than just one. Two complete body surface representations occupy cortical fields 3b and 1. In addition, area 2 contains an orderly representation of predominantly "deep" body tissues. Area 3a may constitute a fourth representation.

TL;DR: The recommendations outlined in the NCCN Guidelines for staging, assessment of HER2 overexpression, systemic therapy for locally advanced or metastatic disease, and best supportive care for the prevention and management of symptoms due to advanced disease are discussed.
Abstract: Gastric cancer is the fifth most frequently diagnosed cancer and the third leading cause of death from cancer in the world. Several advances have been made in the staging procedures, imaging techniques, and treatment approaches. The NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines) for Gastric Cancer provide an evidence- and consensus-based treatment approach for the management of patients with gastric cancer. This manuscript discusses the recommendations outlined in the NCCN Guidelines for staging, assessment of HER2 overexpression, systemic therapy for locally advanced or metastatic disease, and best supportive care for the prevention and management of symptoms due to advanced disease.

TL;DR: The couplings of the Higgs boson are probed for deviations in magnitude from the standard model predictions in multiple ways, including searches for invisible and undetected decays, and no significant deviations are found.
Abstract: Properties of the Higgs boson with mass near 125 GeV are measured in proton-proton collisions with the CMS experiment at the LHC. Comprehensive sets of production and decay measurements are combined. The decay channels include gamma gamma, ZZ, WW, tau tau, bb, and mu mu pairs. The data samples were collected in 2011 and 2012 and correspond to integrated luminosities of up to 5.1 inverse femtobarns at 7 TeV and up to 19.7 inverse femtobarns at 8 TeV. From the high-resolution gamma gamma and ZZ channels, the mass of the Higgs boson is determined to be 125.02 +0.26 -0.27 (stat) +0.14 -0.15 (syst) GeV. For this mass value, the event yields obtained in the different analyses tagging specific decay channels and production mechanisms are consistent with those expected for the standard model Higgs boson. The combined best-fit signal relative to the standard model expectation is 1.00 +/- 0.09 (stat) +0.08 -0.07 (theo) +/- 0.07 (syst) at the measured mass. The couplings of the Higgs boson are probed for deviations in magnitude from the standard model predictions in multiple ways, including searches for invisible and undetected decays. No significant deviations are found.

TL;DR: In heavily pretreated patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, including those with brain metastases, adding tucatinib to trastuzumab and capecitabine resulted in better progression-free survival and overall survival outcomes than adding placebo.
Abstract: Background Patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–positive metastatic breast cancer who have disease progression after therapy with multiple HER2-targeted agents hav...
