    Outcome of medium-dose VP-16/CY/TBI superior to CY/TBI as a conditioning regimen for allogeneic stem cell transplantation in adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia

    The choice of conditioning regimen before allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is important. We retrospectively compared outcomes of medium-dose VP-16/cyclophosphamide/total body irradiation (VP/CY/TBI) regimen and CY/TBI. Five hundred and twenty-nine patients (VP/CY/TBI: n = 35, CY/TBI: n = 494) who met all of the following criteria were compared: first time for SCT, aged 15-59 years; first or second complete remission at SCT; bone marrow or peripheral blood as stem cell source; and HLA phenotypically matched donor. Median age of the patients was 34 years, and patients who received VP/CY/TBI were younger (28 years vs. 34 years, P = 0.02). Cumulative incidences of relapse and non-relapse mortality (NRM) were higher for patients who received CY/TBI (P = 0.01 for relapse, P < 0.01 for NRM). After a median follow-up period of 36.9 months, 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 82.2% in the VP/CY/TBI group and 55.2% in the CY/TBI group. OS, and disease-free survival (DFS) in the VP/CY/TBI group were shown to be significantly better by multivariate analysis [hazard ratio: 0.21 (95% confidence interval: 0.06-0.49) for DFS, hazard ratio: 0.25 (95% confidence interval: 0.08-0.59) for OS]. VP/CY/TBI was associated with a lower relapse rate and no increase in NRM, resulting in better survival than that in CY/TBI for adult ALL patients

    International audienceCréée dans le cadre des universités nouvelles en 1991, CY Cergy Paris Université est une université de l'Ouest parisien. Implantée principalement dans trois villes du Val-d'Oise : Cergy, Pontoise et Neuville-sur-Oise, elle comporte 5 pôles thématiques, 23 laboratoires et 2 structures fédératives dont l'Institut des Humanités numériques (IDHN). L'IDHN est une structure fédérative en Humanités numériques (HN) qui a été créée en 2017 en lien avec le Domaine d'intérêt Majeur (DIM) Sciences du texte et connaissances nouvelles (STCN) porté par Paris Sorbonne Université et dont CY Cergy Paris Université est membre fondateur et partenaire. Quatre laboratoires y intègrent d'emblée leurs projets et actions en HN : les trois équipes d'accueil « Lexiques, Textes, Discours, Dictionnaires » (LT2D), « Mobilités, Réseaux, Territoires, Environnement » (MRTE) et Agora représentant un potentiel d'une centaine de chercheurs en Lettres et SHS et « Équipes Traitement de l'Information et Systèmes » (ETIS), Unité Mixte de Recherche travaillant dans le domaine informatique, qui regroupe 60 permanents dont 8 ingénieurs et 40 doctorants. Ces quatre laboratoires couvrent la majorité des disciplines en SHS : géographie, Histoire et Civilisations, Littérature, sciences du langage, ainsi que des domaines de l'intelligence artificielle : la science de données, la représentation de connaissances, et la gestion de données. Après avoir rappelé les origines de la création de la structure fédérative, il convient de montrer les enjeux d'une recherche hors les murs des laboratoires pour finalement comprendre les défis qui attendent ses membres dans les prochaines années

    A Recessive Lethal Gene, l-Cy, concealed in the Second Chromosome Balancer of Drosophila Melanogaster

    The second chromosome balancer, SM 5[In(2(LR)SM 5)]Cy, has been used as a most useful tool to study the genetic variations in natural populations of Drosophila. melanogaster. The balancer suppresses recombination in almost whole region of the second chromosome since it has complicated inversions both in the right and left arms. It is lethal in the homozygous condition and it also has a dominant mutant, Cy, and several recessive mutations.Homozygous lethality has been explained by the presence of In(2 LR) or Cy itself. However, the cause of lethality is not necessarily clear. Recently, the author has found a recessive lethal gene in a natural population, which is allelic to these balancer chromosomes. In this short communication the author reports that the lethality of SM 5 chromosome in the homozygous condition is due to a recessive lethal gene, l-Cy (lethal Cy)

    A Poetics of becoming: the mythography of Cy Twombly

    A Poetics of Becoming: The Mythography of Cy Twombly, centres upon Proteus, a painting made by the artist Cy Twombly in 1984. The chapter uses this particular work as a means of unpacking the artist's complex and manifold relationship with mythology. With regards to both the facture and the matiere of Proteus, the author argues that the visual poetics of the artist's work results from what is claimed to be the painting's "becoming

    CY Students: Economic Desparity in the Formation of Racial Identity

The aspect of racial identity being investigated focuses on individual’s perception of acceptance into various social networks on the University of Illinois campus. The author seeks to answer the following questions: How do people define their identity? How does appearance, nationality, ethnicity, and environment affect identity? Why do some CY students socialize only with the CY social networks while other CY students extend into main stream American social networks? How does economics factor into racial identity and does the “Push-Pull theory of migration” influence identity?Made available in DSpace on 2008-06-04T19:31:37Z (GMT).
