Rob and Bert in Tokyo
No full textThis essay is steeped in contradiction: it is as much an attempt at mourning, coping, and letting go as it is an exercise in remembrance, rediscovery, and reconnection. One of the many areas of international legal scholarship where Rob Cryer left his mark is his oeuvre on the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE). To pay tribute to, and get re-acquainted with, Rob-the-person, I re-read his 2010 article on the ‘dignified dissenter’ in Tokyo, Dutch Judge Bert Röling. In that article, Rob uses the memoranda and the opinion of Bert-the-judge to assess his conceptual and legal contributions to the IMTFE judgment. They also serve him as a vehicle to get a better grasp of the author behind the text and the values and dilemmas that shaped Röling’s positions on the IMTFE bench. What more can we learn and understand about Rob Cryer while ‘reading Rob reading Bert’? What aspects of Röling’s legacy did he choose to foreground, and what qualities did he appreciate most? How did Rob treat his character when shedding light on the more contentious elements of Röling’s work? Even if this essay fails in its therapeutic purpose, it might still add a few mosaic pieces to the collective construction of Rob’s portrait in this volume

Exploration of the Role Donor and Recipient Microbiome Community Structure Plays in the Efficacy of Fecal Microbiota Transplant to Treat Ulcerative Colitis.
No full textUlcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic autoimmune disorder of the gut affecting over one million Americans. The precise etiology is unknown; however, it commonly exhibits a loss of beneficial gut microbes that produce butyrate and short-chain fatty acids. Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) is a promising therapeutic thought to restore UC gut dysbiosis. However, many questions remain regarding why FMT’s work for some individuals but not for others. To decrease this gap, we conducted a quantitative meta-analysis to explore the role patient, and donor microbiomes play in the efficacy of FMT to treat UC. Twenty-eight studies met the preliminary exclusion criteria, five of which were included in this analysis. We found that patients who experience a clinical response have a higher species richness prior to FMT than those who do not. All patients experience an increase in alpha diversity after FMT and a shift in beta diversity to their donors, irrespective of their clinical outcome. We generated a microbial log-ratio model capable of predicting a patient’s response to FMT with an area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) of 0.73. Differential abundance testing confirmed the increase in known butyrate producers of the genus, Blautia, Ruminococcus, and Alistipes, in donors and responder, compared to non-responders that were also predictors of clinical response in the sparse log-ratio model. These results signify that non-responders may harbor microbial communities too sparse in beneficial microbes that may not be fully restored post-FMT treatment, compared to those who experience a clinical response

Tactile Feedback for Artery Detection in Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgery –Preliminary Results of a New Approach
No full textMinimally invasive robotic surgery (MIRS) entails
total absence of haptic feedback due to the spatial separation
of patient and surgeon. In conventional surgery, however,
palpation to detect superficial arteries by a slight pulsation is
an important, commonly applied, and security-relevant procedure.
Therefore, an ultrasound based unidirectional sensor for
MIRS was developed feeding back kinesthetic impulses to the
surgeon-sided haptic input device
