QCD properties of twist operators in the N=6 Chern-Simons theory

open access: yes, 2009
We consider twist-1, 2 operators in planar N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons ABJM theory. We derive higher order anomalous dimensions from integrability and test various QCD-inspired predictions known to hold in N=4 SYM.

Identification of Host-Specific Bacteroidales 16S rDNA Sequences from Human Sewage and Ruminant Feces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The need to identify the source of fecal contamination of water has led to the development of various fecal source identification methods, a field known as microbial source tracking (MST). One promising method of MST focuses on fecal members of the order

Novel Genetic Risk Factor Identified for L‐Asparaginase‐Induced Pancreatitis in Pediatric Patients With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background L‐asparaginase is a critical component in treatment protocols for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Acute pancreatitis reactions can necessitate delays and, in some cases, discontinuation of L‐asparaginase, which compromises outcomes.

Hemotropic mycoplasmas in little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundHemotropic mycoplasmas are epicellular erythrocytic bacteria that can cause infectious anemia in some mammalian species. Worldwide, hemotropic mycoplasmas are emerging or re-emerging zoonotic pathogens potentially causing serious and ...

Evaluation of a New, Community‐Based Screening Program to Detect Hearing Loss in Adult Childhood Cancer Survivors in Switzerland: Findings From the HEAR Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Childhood cancer survivors (CCS) have an increased risk of long‐term health complications, including treatment‐related hearing loss. Although early detection is important, many adult survivors do not attend hearing screenings in clinical centers because visits can be logistically or emotionally burdensome.

A Comparison between Transcriptome Sequencing and 16S Metagenomics for Detection of Bacterial Pathogens in Wildlife. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015
BACKGROUND:Rodents are major reservoirs of pathogens responsible for numerous zoonotic diseases in humans and livestock. Assessing their microbial diversity at both the individual and population level is crucial for monitoring endemic infections and ...

MYCN Amplification in RB1‐Inactivated Retinoblastoma: Association With High‐Risk Features

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background MYCN amplification occurs in a subset of retinoblastoma cases, both with and without RB1 inactivation. It has been suggested that retinoblastomas with MYCN amplification represent a distinct entity with more aggressive clinical behavior.
