Production of Radioactive Nuclides in Inverse Reaction Kinematics
Efficient production of short-lived radioactive isotopes in inverse reaction
kinematics is an important technique for various applications. It is
particularly interesting when the isotope of interest is only a few nucleons
away from a stable isotope. In this article production via charge exchange and
stripping reactions in combination with a magnetic separator is explored. The
relation between the separator transmission efficiency, the production yield,
and the choice of beam energy is discussed. The results of some exploratory
experiments will be presented.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, to be submitted to Nucl. Instr. and Met

Age cutoff for Epstein-Barr virus-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma--is it necessary?
Contains fulltext :
153699.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access)Epstein-Barr virus-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the elderly (EBV+ DLBCL-e) is a molecularly distinct variant of DLBCL, characterized by a monoclonal B-cell proliferation that occurs in patients >50 years of age without a history or clinicopathologic evidence of immunodeficiency. However, patients with EBV+ DLBCL younger than 50-years-old also exist in Western countries. We evaluated the clinicopathologic, immunophenotypic and genetic features in Cacausian patients with EBV+ DLBCL who are 50 years. In patients who are 50 years, common expression of CD30, p50, pSTAT3 and less frequent expression of BCL6 were observed. Older patients also more commonly had a poor performance status (ECOG>/=2). Comparing EBV+ DLBCL patients in 50 years, both groups had similar clinicopathologic, immunophenotypic and genetic features. Gene expression profiling, microRNA profiling and treatment outcome of the younger patients with EBV+ DLBCL was not distinctive from tumors in older patients. Based on our data, we suggest that the arbitrary age cutoff for EBV+ DLBCL is unnecessary and should be eliminated in the WHO lymphoma classification scheme
The 5th edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Haematolymphoid Tumours: Lymphoid Neoplasms
We herein present an overview of the upcoming 5(th) edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Haematolymphoid Tumours focussing on lymphoid neoplasms. Myeloid and histiocytic neoplasms will be presented in a separate accompanying article. Besides listing the entities of the classification, we highlight and explain changes from the revised 4(th) edition. These include reorganization of entities by a hierarchical system as is adopted throughout the 5(th) edition of the WHO classification of tumours of all organ systems, modification of nomenclature for some entities, revision of diagnostic criteria or subtypes, deletion of certain entities, and introduction of new entities, as well as inclusion of tumour-like lesions, mesenchymal lesions specific to lymph node and spleen, and germline predisposition syndromes associated with the lymphoid neoplasms.Patholog
