Melkites, Mutakallim?n and al-Ma’m?n: Depicting the Religious Other in Medieval Arabic Dialogues
The article describes a literary dialogue said to have occurred in 829/214 between the Arab Melkite Christian bishop Theodore Ab? Qurra, several Muslim scholars, and the caliph al-Ma’m?n. The text contains two types of dialogue: Ab? Qurra versus the Muslim scholars and Ab? Qurra with al-Ma’m?n. The former is distinguished by its antagonism on both sides, while the latter is noted for its polite discourse. The evidence indicates that the Muslim caliph al-Ma’m?n held an admired place in the Melkite Christian community’s memory. The author’s analysis concludes that the dialogue presupposes Christian Arab identity was integrated into the dominant Islamic culture in a symbiotic relationship that recognized the reality of religious pluralism and disparate truth claims. The author also argues that the text placed value on the dialogical approach as a process of identity formation by constructing boundaries with religious others while simultaneously internalizing these other religious worldviews.</jats:p

Simulation study of the detected and expected events for the EUSO-TA fluorescence detector
The JEM-EUSO Project: Observing Extremely High Energy Cosmic Rays and Neutrinos from the International Space Station
The Japanese Experiment Module - Extreme Universe Space Observatory (JEM-EUSO) is a
super wide-field telescope to observe Extremely High Energy Cosmic Rays (EHECR) and neutrinos with energy above 1019eV from the International Space Station (ISS), orbiting at an altitude of about 430 km from ground. JEM-EUSO will image the fluorescence light emitted by the atmospheric molecules of nitrogen excited during the development of the Extensive Air Shower (EAS) generated by the interaction of a EHECR or neutrino at the top of the atmosphere. It will also detect part of the ˇCerenkov light produced during the shower development and reflected at the impact point (land, sea or clouds).journal articl

Erratum: Search for photons with energies above 1018 eV using the hybrid detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
1 Exposure calculation Due to a mistake in the numerical integration following eq. (6.2) of the original article [1], the exposure shown in figure 5 of the original article was incorrect. The correct exposure is shown in figure 1. 2 Upper limits on the integral photon flux and fraction The incorrect exposure affects the calculation of the upper limits on the integral photon flux following eq. (6.1) of the original article. The correct values for the upper limits are 0.038, 0.010, 0.009, 0.008 and 0.007 km−2 sr−1 yr−1 for threshold energies of 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 EeV. The correct values for the upper limits on the integral photon fraction subsequently derived are 0.14 %, 0.17 %, 0.42 %, 0.86 % and 2.9 % for the same threshold energies. 3 Author list The author list of this erratum also corrects a mistake made in the original article, where F. Zuccarello was missing and Z. Zong was listed twice.Fil: Aab, A.. Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen; Países BajosFil: Abreu, P.. Instituto Superior Tecnico; PortugalFil: Aglietta, M..

Multiple infusions of mesenchymal stromal cells induce sustained remission in children with steroid-refractory, grade III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease.
Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) infusions have been reported to be effective in patients with steroid-refractory, acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) but comprehensive data on paediatric patients are limited. We retrospectively analysed a cohort of 37 children (aged 3 months-17 years) treated with MSCs for steroid-refractory grade III-IV aGvHD. All patients but three received multiple MSC infusions. Complete response (CR) was observed in 24 children (65\%), while 13 children had either partial (n = 8) or no response (n = 5). Cumulative incidence of transplantation-related mortality (TRM) in patients who did or did not achieve CR was 17\% and 69\%, respectively (P = 0.001). After a median follow-up of 2.9 years, overall survival (OS) was 37\%; it was 65\% vs. 0\% in patients who did or did not achieve CR, respectively (P = 0.001). The median time from starting steroids for GvHD treatment to first MSC infusion was 13 d (range 5-85). Children treated between 5 and 12 d after steroid initiation showed a trend for better OS (56\%) and lower TRM (17\%) as compared with patients receiving MSCs 13-85 d after steroids (25\% and 53\%, respectively; P = 0.22 and 0.06, respectively). Multiple MSC infusions are safe and effective for children with steroid-refractory aGvHD, especially when employed early in the disease course
