Abstract
Neutron induced nuclear reactions are of prime importance for both fusion and fission nuclear reactor technology. Present work describes the first time measurement of spectrum average cross section of nuclear reactions 183W(n,p)183Ta and 184W(n,p)184Ta using 252Cf spontaneous fission neutron source. Standard neutron activation analysis (NAA) technique was used. The neutron spectra were calculated using Monte Carlo N Particle Code (MCNP). The effects of self-shielding and back scattering were taken into account by optimizing the detector modeling. These effects along with efficiency of detector were corrected for volume sample in the actual source-detector geometry. The measured data were compared with the previously measured data available in Exchange Format (EXFOR) data base and evaluated data using EMPIRE - 3.2.2.

Abstract
Since 2005, the standard of care for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) has consisted of maximal resection followed by radiotherapy plus daily temozolomide (TMZ), followed by maintenance TMZ. In patients selected for clinical trials, median overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) with this regimen is 15-17 months and 6-7 months, respectively. There have been various, largely unsuccessful attempts to improve on this standard of care. With the FDA approval of the tumor-treating fields (TTFields) device, Optune, for recurrent GBM (2011), and the more recent EF-14 interim trial results and approval for newly diagnosed GBM patients, several questions have arisen. A roundtable of experts was convened at the 2015 ASCO meeting to engage in an open conversation and debate of the EF-14 results presented at that meeting and their implications for neuro-oncology practice and clinical research. In October 2015, subsequent to the roundtable discussion, TTFields received FDA approval for newly diagnosed GBM.

Abstract
Though survival rate following severe thermal injuries has improved, the incidence and treatment of scarring have not improved at the same speed. This review discusses the formation of scars and in particular the formation of hypertrophic scars. Further, though there is as yet no gold standard treatment for the prevention or treatment of scarring, a brief overview is included. A number of natural therapeutics have shown beneficial effects both in vivo and in vitro with the potential of becoming clinical therapeutics in the future. These natural therapeutics include both plant-based products such as resveratrol, quercetin and epigallocatechin gallate as examples and includes the non-plant-based therapeutic honey. The review also includes potential mechanism of action for the therapeutics, any recorded adverse events and current administration of the therapeutics used. This review discusses a number of potential 'treatments' that may reduce or even prevent scarring particularly hypertrophic scarring, which is associated with thermal injuries without compromising wound repair.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the use of EndoAnchors as an adjunct to endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair for prevention of proximal neck complications in patients with challenging neck anatomy. METHODS Over a 28-month period, 208 patients (159 men; mean age 72±8 years) were enrolled in the ANCHOR prospective, multicenter registry (ClinicalTrials.gov; identifier NCT01534819) for prophylaxis against proximal neck complications. Patients were eligible when, in the opinion of the investigators, they were at increased risk for type Ia endoleak or migration owing to a hostile neck (length <10 mm, diameter >28 mm, angulation >60°, mural thrombus or calcium >2 mm in thickness or >180° in circumference, or conical shape). Overall, 123/157 (78.3%) patients met the criteria for a hostile neck according to core laboratory assessment of 157 adequate preoperative computed tomographic (CT) images. RESULTS Implantation of EndoAnchors was technically successful in 204/208 (98.1%) patients. The frequency of fracture was 0.3% (3/1118); there were no clinical sequelae associated with the fractures. Over the mean 14-month follow-up, 95.2% of patients were alive, and no deaths were attributable to EndoAnchors. There were no ruptures, migrations, or open surgical conversions. Aneurysm-related reinterventions were performed in 8 (3.8%) patients. Among 130 patients with postprocedure contrast CT studies, core laboratory analysis identified 2 (1.5%) patients with type Ia endoleaks. Aneurysm sac diameter decreased >5 mm in 42.9% of patients with CT scans at or beyond 1 year; 1.6% of patients developed sac enlargement >5 mm. CONCLUSION Prophylactic EndoAnchor use for challenging aortic neck anatomy was associated with satisfactory midterm results.

Abstract
Deficiency of the 5α-reductase 2 enzyme impairs the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and differentiation of external genitalia, seminal vesicles and prostate in males. The present study describes the phenotype, genotype and gender identity in a large cohort of patients with 5αRD2. All patients underwent detailed clinical evaluation, hormonal profile, karyotyping and molecular analysis of the SRD5A2 gene. The molecular analysis of the SRD5A2 gene showed the presence of mutant alleles in 24 patients. We found 6 novel mutations IVS(1-2) T>C, p.A52T, 188-189insTA, 904-905ins A, p.A12T and p.E57X in our patients. All patients had ambiguous genitalia and the degrees of under-virilization ranged from penoscrotal hypospadias and microphallus to clitoromegaly. The position of gonads was variable in patients with same mutation. All the patients with mutations in the SRD5A2 gene had male gender identity. Those reared as female had gender dysphoria and underwent gender reassignment. Though a specific genotype-phenotype correlation could not be established in our patient but confirming the diagnosis of 5αRD2 with assessment of the SRD5A2 gene may help in appropriate gender assignment.
