Oesophageal surgery- Is there light at the end of the tunnel? Professor Neil ...SMACC Conference
The 105 years since the first successful thoracic oesophagectomy was performed saw initially slow progress in terms of operative mortality, morbidity and oncological outcomes. Even until the late 1990’s, operative mortality figures of 15-20% were commonplace and long term survival was poor, as low as 12%1. The last 20 years has seen a major change in these outcomes both within Australia and overseas. These improvements have been based on the bed rocks of improved surgical techniques, improved peri operative care, changes in the distribution of the pathophysiology of the disease, improved patient selection through better staging, Development of endoscopic techniques for early tumours, development of effective neo adjuvant regimes and the development of “high” volume centres have all contributed to the current figures of 4% preoperative mortality and overall 5 year survivals in the post surgical patient of 40%. Better understanding of the nutritional issues involved has led to an emphasis on better quality of life issues in both the curative and palliative settings. This talk outlines the forces that have brought about the changes including outlining the modern treatment algorithm and discussing the volume effects of surgery in the Australian context

Characteristics of cases with unknown stage prostate cancerCancer Council NSW
Stage of cancer at diagnosis (e.g. localised, regional involvement, metastatic) is an important predictor of survival. This paper identifies there is cause for concern surrounding the 40% of "unknown" or unrecorded stage of diagnosis on prostate cancer patient records in NSW. This means crucial information is missing from their records. The second stage of this project, scheduled for completion in late 2014, is to identify the reasons for these missing data. Once this has been completed we can inform policy makers to ensure the data completeness can be improved. Studies using cancer staging data can then increase in quality and quantity.

Background and objectives: Mechanical perturbations in seated positions caused by driving on irregular terrain destabilize the driver which, combined with the drivers' posture, may cause musculoskeletal disorders.
Objectives: Diabetic patients are prone to early development of vasculopathy, resulting in lower limb ischemia, which can lead to non-healing ulcers, foot infection, loss of limb, and even death. These patients need revascularization of their limb either using endovascular or open surgical techniques. Not all patients are suitable for endovascular treatment warranting the open surgical revascularization techniques.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the patency of arterial bypass grafting using reverse saphenous vein graft in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease of the lower limbs in diabetic patients.
Background: Pericardial tamponade, a life-threatening condition caused by the accumulation of fluid in the pericardial sac, can be acute or chronic. Mortality and morbidity can be minimized on prompt diagnosis and treatment with percutaneous drainage.
Materials and methods: 246 patients admitted with cardiac tamponade between Jan 2010 and Aug 2014 was enrolled in the study. After clinical examination and echocardiographic assessment, all the patients were subjected to emergency pericardiocentesis (both diagnostic and therapeutic). Three samples of the aspirate were sent for biochemical, serological, and cytological analysis. The data collected was then analyzed.
Results: Tuberculosis is the commonest cause in our study. Post procedural and post-surgical causes are insignificant in numbers. Overall mortality rate in our study is 6% which is much lesser than other studies. Procedure related cardiac tamponade mortality rate was 6%.
Introduction: Pheochromocytoma is an adrenal gland tumour, which usually produces catecholamines. The classical triad of clinical symptoms consists of palpitations, headaches and profuse sweating. Other symptoms include: hypertension, anxiety, pallor, nausea, weakness. However, it can be asymptomatic. Because of unspecific symptoms the diagnosis of this rare neuroendocrine tumor can be missed or delayed. In differential diagnosis other entities should be considered: essential hypertension, anxiety attack, hyperthyroidism, hypogonadism, hypoglycemia, renal artery stenosis, intracranial lesion, autonomic epilepsy, carcinoid syndrome, use of cocaine or amphetamine.

EORTC QLQ-OES 18 module strategy for assessment of quality of life in esophag...IOSRJPBS
Esophageal cancer ranks sixth among all cancers in mortality. Advances in medical research have led to improved prognosis and quality of life (QOL) and increased survival rates. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the ethnicity-wise risk factors and quality of life in esophageal cancer patients from Jammu region. Materials and Methods: A retrospective case control study was conducted from Oct’ 2007- July’ 2013. Study population was divided into three ethnicity groups- Kashmiri, Pahadi and Dogri. Information on sociodemographic profile, medical and family history was collected using standard questionnaires. The details of the patients required by European Organization for Research and Training in Cancer, the OESophageal module OES18 were collected within 1 month prior to treatment and 6 months and 3 years post treatment. Data were analyzed using logistic regression analysis with maximum likelihood estimation of parameters values. Results: The study population consisted of 200 cases and 200 controls. Incidence rates were higher for males as compared to females. Alcohol intake, physical functioning and appetite loss were significantly associated with the survival of esophageal cancer patients belonging to all the three ethnicity groups. Dysphagia, gastrointestinal reflux, pain and emotional problem were found to be significant in governing pre- and postoperative QOL. Conclusions- The results of epidemiologic, observational and dietary information of the population groups of Jammu region concur with the notion that life-style habits like alcohol consumption do play a role in cancer onset and progression. Though the risk factors differed with respect to the ethnicity, we found almost similar results for QOL parameters. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of using both a core and a disease-specific module for a reliable psychometric analysis of clinical significance.

Background- Lung cancer is the major cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Chronic inflammation of the airway plays an important role in the alternations of bronchial epithelium and lung microenvironment, therefore provoking the pulmonary carcinogenesis and progression of lung cancer. The results may suggest that high inflammation level can be associated with the higher risk of lung cancer. CRP is an acute-phase protein produced in the liver in response to elevated cytokine levels after an inflammatory stimulus. C-reactive protein (CRP) a systemic marker of chronic inflammation is associated with increased lung cancer risk. Material and Methodology- This case-control study was conducted on 40 lung cancer patients and 30 healthy controls. CRP level was measured in serum by ELISA kits. Results- Elevated serum CRP level was found in lung cancer patients as comparison to healthy controls. This study shows significant association between the serum CRP level of lung cancer patients and healthy controls (p<0.0001) and also showed significant association between smoker, ex-smoker and non-smokers lung cancer patients as well as in healthy controls (p<0.0001). Conclusion- Higher CRP levels were found in lung cancer patients as compared to healthy controls. The higher CRP level was also observed in Smoker, Ex-smoker as compared to non-smoker in lung cancer patients and healthy control. Key-words- Lung Cancer, CRP, Inflammatory Stimulus, Cardiovascular disease, Biomarker

Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

3. Abstract
Background:The impact of systemic inflammatory
response on carcinogenesis and tumor progression has
recently gained much attention. Biochemical markers
such as albumin, pre-albumin and C-reactive protein
(CRP) are currently used to predict prognosis in
several cancer types, and the usefulness of these
biomarkers in gastric cancer has become an emerging
topic of research. The present study aims to assess the
correlation between tumor stage and the levels of pre-
albumin, albumin and CRP in patients who underwent
surgery for gastric cancer.
