Extracutaneous melanoma with special emphasis on mucosal melanoma
Despite the rarity of extracutaneous melanomas they represent a tumor entity with a very high mortality due to delayed diagnosis. This review article presents the various biological and diagnostic characteristics of extracutaneous melanomas with special emphasis on mucosal melanoma and provides an overview of new pharmacological approaches urgently needed due to the lack of efficacious standard therapies. A systematic literature search was conducted by using the English terms extracutaneous melanoma, mucosal melanoma, uveal melanoma, leptomeningeal melanoma and c-KIT in the Medline database between 1982 and 2014. Extracutaneous melanomas comprise approximately 1.4-5 % of all melanomas and are a rare tumor entity. They develop from de-differentiated dendritic melanocytes in the mucus membranes of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract and respiratory system, in the back of the eyes or the meninges. As they are difficult to detect, extracutaneous melanomas are often already associated with an advanced disease progression at the time of first diagnosis. The class of c-KIT inhibitors has proven to be a new effective targeted therapy for extracutaneous melanomas harboring the appropriate mutational status. Because of the rarity of this tumor entity prospective, randomized control trials are lacking. Therapeutic approaches should, therefore, always be individualized taking into account the special requirements in each case
Notes on Peter Karpovich for admission to Springfield College, c. 1925
These are notes on Peter V. Karpovich that were created, mostly likely, as part of his admissions process to Springfield College, c. 1925. The author or writer of these pages is not identified. Nor is it identified as to how, whether in a meeting or an interview or just from reading information, these notes were created. The notes are written in abreviations and in short fragments. The notes basically outline facts about his life, including age, family, education history, medical practice, present living arrangements, experience with the Young Men's Christian Associaation (YMCA), and experience in teaching Physical Education. Finally they also talk about his arrival in the United States, his desires for work/education at Springfield College., and his prospects of returning to Russia after his degree.For more information on Peter V. Karpovich, see: https://springfield.as.atlas-sys.com/agents/people/57
Rotated declination, intensity and MAD of IODP Site 342-U1406
In supplement to: van Peer, TE et al. (2017): Extracting a Detailed Magnetostratigraphy From Weakly Magnetized, Oligocene to Early Miocene Sediment Drifts Recovered at IODP Site U1406 (Newfoundland Margin, Northwest Atlantic Ocean). Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 18(11), 3910-3928</span
Extracting a detailed magnetostratigraphy from weakly magnetized, Oligocene to early Miocene sediment drifts recovered at IODP Site U1406 (Newfoundland margin, northwest Atlantic Ocean)
Fine-grained magnetic particles in deep-sea sediments often statistically align with the ambient magnetic field during (and shortly after) deposition and can therefore record geomagnetic reversals. Correlation of these reversals to a geomagnetic polarity time scale is an important geochronological tool that facilitates precise stratigraphic correlation and dating of geological records globally. Sediments often carry a remanence strong enough for confident identification of polarity reversals, but in some cases a low signal-to-noise ratio prevents the construction of a reliable and robust magnetostratigraphy. Here we implement a data-filtering protocol, which can be integrated with the UPmag software package, to automatically reduce the maximum angular deviation and statistically mask noisy data and outliers deemed unsuitable for magnetostratigraphic interpretation. This protocol thus extracts a clearer signal from weakly magnetized sediments recovered at Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 342 Site U1406 (Newfoundland margin, northwest Atlantic Ocean). The resulting magnetostratigraphy, in combination with shipboard and shore-based biostratigraphy, provides an age model for the study interval from IODP Site U1406 between Chrons C6Ar and C9n (∼21-27 Ma). We identify rarely observed geomagnetic directional changes within Chrons C6Br, C7r, and C7Ar, and perhaps within Subchron C8n.1n. Our magnetostratigraphy dates three intervals of unusual stratigraphic behavior within the sediment drifts at IODP Site U1406 on the Newfoundland margin. These lithostratigraphic changes are broadly concurrent with the coldest climatic phases of the middle Oligocene to early Miocene and we hypothesize that they reflect changes in bottom-water circulation
