    Mixed tumours of the parotid gland are rare in childhood and recurrence of this tumour is infrequent. Some authors report a higher rate of recurrence with some histological subtypes, like hypocellular variant. Female sex and young age at initial treatment are also risk factor for recurrence. Also the first surgical treatment, tumour enucleation or parotidectomy, has been implicated as a cause for recurrence. We present a case of a multicentric doubly recurrent parotid pleomorphic adenoma, 7 and 14 years after tumour enucleation, in a 9-year-old child. All the nodules resected showed the hypocellular variant of pleomorphic adenoma. We consider the relationships between the choice of treatment, the histologic subtypes of pleomorphic adenomas and multifocal tumours and recurrence. In this case, we believe the recurrence was related to surgical enucleation previously performed and the hypocellular histological subtype. We conclude that tumour enucleation is a risk factor for recurrence and total parotidectomy is the treatment of choice for pleomorphic parotid adenoma also in childhood

    The NASA Environmentally Responsible Aircraft Project (ERA) was a ve year project broken into two phases. In phase II, high N+2 Technical Readiness Level demonstrations were grouped into Integrated Technology Demonstrations (ITD). This paper describes the work done on ITD-51A: the Vehicle Systems Integration, Engine Airframe Integration Demonstration. Refinement of a Hybrid Wing Body (HWB) aircraft from the possible candidates developed in ERA Phase I was continued. Scaled powered, and unpowered wind- tunnel testing, with and without acoustics, in the NASA LARC 14- by 22-foot Subsonic Tunnel, the NASA ARC Unitary Plan Wind Tunnel, and the 40- by 80-foot test section of the National Full-Scale Aerodynamics Complex (NFAC) in conjunction with very closely coupled Computational Fluid Dynamics was used to demonstrate the fuel burn and acoustic milestone targets of the ERA Project

    [EN] Aim Despite the potential benefits of e-health interventions for patients with psychosis, the integration of these applications into the clinical workflow and analysis of their long-term effects still face significant challenges. To address these issues, we developed the ReMindCare app. This app aims to improve the treatment quality for patients with psychosis. We chose to study the app in real world and pragmatic manner to ensure results will be generalizable. Methods This is a naturalistic empirical study of patients in a first episode of psychosis programme. The app was purpose-designed based on two previous studies, and it offers the following assessments: (a) three daily questions regarding anxiety, sadness and irritability; and (b) 18 weekly questions about medication adherence, medication side effects, medication attitudes and prodromal symptoms. The app offers preset alerts, reminders and the ability for patients to reach out to their clinicians. Data captured by the app are linked to the electronic medical record of the patient. Patients will use the app as part of their ongoing care for a maximum period of 5 years, and assessments will occur at baseline and at the end of the first, second and fifth years of app use. Results Recruitment started in October 2018 and is still ongoing. Conclusions The ReMindCare app represents early real-world use of digital mental health tools that offer direct integration into clinical care. High retention and compliance rates are expected, and this will in turn lead to improved quality of assessments and communication between patients and clinicians.Centro de Investigacion Biomedica en Red de Salud Mental; European Social Fund, Grant/Award Number: 2017/9830; Generalitat Valenciana, Grant/Award Number: PROMETEO/2016/082; Instituto de Salud Carlos III, Grant/Award Numbers: PI01399, PI13/00447, PI17/00402Bonet, L.; Torous, J.; Arce Grilo, AD.; Blanquer Espert, I.; Sanjuán, J.

    ReMindCare App for Early Psychosis: Pragmatic Real World Intervention and Usability Study

    Get PDF
    [EN] Background: eHealth interventions are widely used in clinical trials and increasingly in care settings as well; however, their efficacy in real-world contexts remains unknown. ReMindCare is a smartphone app that has been systematically implemented in a first episode of psychosis program (FEPP) for patients with early psychosis since 2018. Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of ReMindCare after 19 months of use in the clinic and varying use by individual patients. Methods: The integration of the ReMindCare app into the FEPP started in October 2018. Patients with early psychosis self-selected to the app (ReMindCare group) or treatment as usual (TAU group). The outcome variables considered were adherence to the intervention and number of relapses, hospital admissions, and visits to urgent care units. Data from 90 patients with early psychosis were analyzed: 59 in the ReMindCare group and 31 in the TAU group. The mean age of the sample was 32.8 (SD 9.4) years, 73% (66/90) were males, 91% (83/90) were White, and 81% (74/90) were single. Results: Significant differences between the ReMindCare and TAU groups were found in the number of relapses, hospitalizations, and visits to urgent care units, with each showing benefits for the app. Only 20% (12/59) of patients from the ReMindCare group had a relapse, while 58% (18/31) of the TAU patients had one or more relapses (chi(2) =13.7, P=.001). Moreover, ReMindCare patients had fewer visits to urgent care units (chi(2) =7.4, P=.006) and fewer hospitalizations than TAU patients (chi(2) =4.6, P=.03). The mean of days using the app was 352.2 (SD 191.2; min/max: 18-594), and the mean of engagement was 84.5 (SD 16.04). Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first eHealth intervention that has preliminarily proven its benefits in the real-world treatment of patients with early psychosis.This study was supported by the Sanitary Research Institute of the University Clinic Hospital and the Mental Health Networking Biomedical Centre.

    Approximating subtree distances between Phylogenies

    We give a 5-approximation algorithm to the rooted Subtree-Prune-and-Regraft (rSPR) distance between two phylogenies, which was recently shown to be NP-complete by Bordewich and Semple [5]. This paper presents the first approximation result for this important tree distance. The algorithm follows a standard format for tree distances such as Rodrigues et al. [24] and Hein et al. [13]. The novel ideas are in the analysis. In the analysis, the cost of the algorithm uses a \cascading" scheme that accounts for possible wrong moves. This accounting is missing from previous analysis of tree distance approximation algorithms. Further, we show how all algorithms of this type can be implemented in linear time and give experimental results

    External allomorphy and lexical representations

    Get PDF
    Many cases of allomorphic alternation are restricted to specific lexical items but at the same time show a regular phonological distribution. Standard approaches cannot deal with these cases because they must either resort to diacritic features or list regular phonological contexts as idiosyncratic. These problems can be overcome if we assume that allomorphs are lexically organized as a partially ordered set. If no ordering is established, allomorphic choice is determined by the phonology- in particular, by the emergence of the unmarked (TETU). In other cases, TETU effects are insufficient, and lexical ordering determines the preference for dominant allomorphs

    Crecimiento y bienestar en América Latina : nuevos enfoques

    Get PDF
    La historiografía del bienestar de los países ha ido evolucionando con la incor-poración de nuevos enfoques para aproximarse al tema. Los primeros estudios consideraban que el producto interno bruto (piB) podría ser una buena aproxima-ción para medir el bienestar de los habitantes. Posteriormente, otros autores co-menzaron a cuestionar que el piB solamente estaría reflejando el crecimiento en la producción, excluyendo otras variables que podrían también estar influenciando el bienestar, tales como el grado de educación y la salud que disfrutan los habi-tantes de un país. A partir de esta propuesta se construye el índice de desarrollo humano (iDh), que contempla tres componentes para medir el bienestar: piB, edu-cación y salud. En los últimos años, ha surgido la estatura como una variable que refleja con bastante exactitud el estándar de vida que disfruta una población. La estatura humana depende, por supuesto, de factores genéticos. Pero el potencial de crecimiento está condicionado por el efecto neto de, por un lado, la nutrición, y, por otro, las enfermedades y el esfuerzo físico (por ejemplo, en el trabajo). En consecuencia, los aumentos de estatura en el tiempo son un buen indicador del bienestar de las personas

    N plus 2 Supersonic Concept Development and Systems Integration

    Get PDF
    Supersonic airplanes for two generations into the future (N+2, 2020-2025 EIS) were designed: the 100 passenger 765-072B, and the 30 passenger 765-076E. Both achieve a trans-Atlantic range of about 4000nm. The larger 765-072B meets fuel burn and emissions goals forecast for the 2025 time-frame, and the smaller 765-076E improves the boom and confidence in utilization that accompanies lower seat count. The boom level of both airplanes was reduced until balanced with performance. The final configuration product is two "realistic", non-proprietary future airplane designs, described in sufficient detail for subsequent multi-disciplinary design and optimization, with emphasis on the smaller 765-076E because of its lower boom characteristics. In addition IGES CAD files of the OML lofts of the two example configurations, a non-proprietary parametric engine model, and a first-cycle Finite Element Model are also provided for use in future multi-disciplinary analysis, optimization, and technology evaluation studies
