TL;DR: A unified account based on multiple trace theory is proposed, which states that the hippocampus is needed for re-experiencing detailed episodic and spatial memories no matter how old they are, and that it contributes to the formation and assimilation of semantic memories and schematic spatial maps.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spin and parity quantum numbers of the Higgs boson were studied based on the collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, and the results showed that the standard model spin-parity J(...

TL;DR: The authors found that small RNAs function to specify sequences to be eliminated by a mechanism similar to RNA-mediated gene silencing in Tetrahymena thermophila, and they were not observed in TWI1 knockout cells and required PDD1, another gene required for rearrangement, for expression.

TL;DR: This study sought to examine the epidemiologic characteristics of NETs and the contribution of early‐stage detection to the rising incidence and patterns of metastatic presentation.
Abstract: BACKGROUND
An increased incidence of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) has been reported worldwide, but the reasons underlying this rise have not been identified By assessing patterns of metastatic presentation, this study sought to examine the epidemiologic characteristics of NETs and the contribution of early-stage detection to the rising incidence
METHODS
A population-based retrospective cohort study was conducted with prospectively maintained databases linked at the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences Adult patients with a NET diagnosis from 1994 to 2009 in Ontario, Canada were included The main outcomes included the overall and site-specific incidence, proportion of metastatic disease, overall survival (OS), and recurrence-free survival (RFS)
RESULTS
Five thousand six hundred nineteen NET cases were identified The incidence of NETs increased from 248 to 586 per 100,000 per year Metastases were found in 208% at presentation and in another 38% after the initial diagnosis The proportion of metastases at presentation decreased from 1994 to 2009 (from 29% to 13%) Therefore, although the incidence of all NETs increased, the overall incidence of metastases did not change (063-069 per 100,000 per year) The 10-year OS rate was 465%, and the RFS rate was 646% In addition to the primary tumor site, independent predictors of worse OS included an advanced age (P < 0001), male sex (P < 0001), a low socioeconomic status (P < 0001), and rural living (P = 0049)
CONCLUSIONS
The incidence of NETs has markedly increased over the course of 15 years This is the first study to provide evidence suggesting that the increase in the incidence of NETs may be due to increased detection In addition to tumor characteristics, low income and rural residency portend worse survival for patients with NETs Cancer 2015;121:589–597 © 2014 American Cancer Society
