Abstract
We present improved germanium-based constraints on sub-GeV dark matter via dark matter-electron (χ-e) scattering using the 205.4 kg·day dataset from the CDEX-10 experiment. Using a novel calculation technique, we attain predicted χ-e scattering spectra observable in high-purity germanium detectors. In the heavy mediator scenario, our results achieve 3 orders of magnitude of improvement for m_{χ} larger than 80 MeV/c^{2} compared to previous germanium-based χ-e results. We also present the most stringent χ-e cross-section limit to date among experiments using solid-state detectors for m_{χ} larger than 90 MeV/c^{2} with heavy mediators and m_{χ} larger than 100 MeV/c^{2} with electric dipole coupling. The result proves the feasibility and demonstrates the vast potential of a new χ-e detection method with high-purity germanium detectors in ultralow radioactive background.

Abstract
A search for exotic dark matter (DM) in the sub-GeV mass range has been conducted using 205 kg day data taken from a p-type point contact germanium detector of the CDEX-10 experiment at China's Jinping underground laboratory. New low-mass dark matter searching channels, neutral current fermionic DM absorption (χ+A→ν+A) and DM-nucleus 3→2 scattering (χ+χ+A→ϕ+A), have been analyzed with an energy threshold of 160 eVee. No significant signal was found; thus new limits on the DM-nucleon interaction cross section are set for both models at the sub-GeV DM mass region. A cross section limit for the fermionic DM absorption is set to be 2.5×10^{-46} cm^{2} (90% C.L.) at DM mass of 10 MeV/c^{2}. For the DM-nucleus 3→2 scattering scenario, limits are extended to DM mass of 5 and 14 MeV/c^{2} for the massless dark photon and bound DM final state, respectively.

Abstract
We report constraints on the dark photon effective kinetic mixing parameter (κ) with data taken from two p-type point-contact germanium detectors of the CDEX-10 experiment at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. The 90% confidence level upper limits on κ of solar dark photon from 205.4 kg-day exposure are derived, probing new parameter space with masses (m_{V}) from 10 to 300 eV/c^{2} in direct detection experiments. Considering dark photon as the cosmological dark matter, limits at 90% confidence level with m_{V} from 0.1 to 4.0 keV/c^{2} are set from 449.6 kg-day data, with a minimum of κ=1.3×10^{-15} at m_{V}=200 eV/c^{2}.

Abstract
We present results on light weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) searches with annual modulation (AM) analysis on data from a 1-kg mass p-type point-contact germanium detector of the CDEX-1B experiment at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. Datasets with a total live time of 3.2 yr within a 4.2-yr span are analyzed with analysis threshold of 250 eVee. Limits on WIMP-nucleus (χ-N) spin-independent cross sections as function of WIMP mass (m_{χ}) at 90% confidence level (C.L.) are derived using the dark matter halo model. Within the context of the standard halo model, the 90% C.L. allowed regions implied by the DAMA/LIBRA and CoGeNT AM-based analysis are excluded at >99.99% and 98% C.L., respectively. These results correspond to the best sensitivity at m_{χ}<6 GeV/c^{2} among WIMP AM measurements to date.

Abstract
We report results on the searches of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) with sub-GeV masses (m_{χ}) via WIMP-nucleus spin-independent scattering with Migdal effect incorporated. Analysis on time-integrated (TI) and annual modulation (AM) effects on CDEX-1B data are performed, with 737.1 kg day exposure and 160 eVee threshold for TI analysis, and 1107.5 kg day exposure and 250 eVee threshold for AM analysis. The sensitive windows in m_{χ} are expanded by an order of magnitude to lower DM masses with Migdal effect incorporated. New limits on σ_{χN}^{SI} at 90% confidence level are derived as 2×10^{-32}∼7×10^{-35} cm^{2} for TI analysis at m_{χ}∼50-180 MeV/c^{2}, and 3×10^{-32}∼9×10^{-38} cm^{2} for AM analysis at m_{χ}∼75 MeV/c^{2}-3.0 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
We report the first results of a light weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) search from the CDEX-10 experiment with a 10 kg germanium detector array immersed in liquid nitrogen at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory with a physics data size of 102.8 kg day. At an analysis threshold of 160 eVee, improved limits of 8×10^{-42} and 3×10^{-36} cm^{2} at a 90% confidence level on spin-independent and spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon cross sections, respectively, at a WIMP mass (m_{χ}) of 5 GeV/c^{2} are achieved. The lower reach of m_{χ} is extended to 2 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Objective: To carry out a prospective cohort study of combined intra-operative radiotherapy for centrally located hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) and to observe the safety and postoperative complications. Methods: A total of 79 patients with centrally located HCC who underwent hepatectomy were divided into two groups: experimental group (combined with targeted intra-operative radiotherapy, 32 cases) and control group (single surgical operation, 47 cases). Patients in the experimental group received intra-operative electron radiotherapy after tumor resection, while patients in the control group received to intra-operative electron radiotherapy.The haemorrhagia amount and operation time during the operation, intra-operative liver function and the recovery of liver and gastrointestinal tract of patients in these two groups were compared. Results: No postoperative 30-day mortality was observed in all of the patients. The average total operation time of patients in the experimental group was (319±76) min, significantly longer than (233±76) min of the control group (P<0.001). The average aspartate transaminase (AST) level of patients in the experimental group at postoperative day 1 was 562.5 U/L, significantly higher than 347.0 U/L of control group (P=0.031). However, the average prothrombin activity levels of patients in the experimental group at postoperative day 3 and day 7 were (68.3±17.9)% and (73.4±10.2)%, respectively, significantly lower than (78.9±15.9)% and (80.0±10.6)% of control group (both P<0.05). There were no significant differences of tumor volume, differentiation degree, satellite lesion, dorsal membrane invasion, microvascular invasion between these two groups (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences of hospital stay, ventilation time, the incidence of hepatic insufficiency, ascites, pleural effusion, infection, biliary fistula between these two groups (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), albumin, total bilirubin between these two groups at postoperative day 1, 3, 5 and 7 (all of P>0.05). Conclusion: The resection of centrally located HCC combined with intra-operative radiotherapy may increase the total operation time, delay the early postoperative recovery of liver function, but it is still safe and feasible. Trial registration: National Cancer Centre /Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, ChiCTR-TRC-12002802.

Abstract
The characteristics of the surface inactive layer of a 1-kg-mass p-type point-contact germanium detector were studied. The thickness of the inactive layer and its uniformity on the top and lateral surfaces were measured. A charge collection efficiency function was developed according to the Monte Carlo simulation to describe the charge collection capacity along the depth within this inactive layer. In the energy range below 18keV, the surface, bulk, and total spectra of 57Co, 133Ba, 137Cs, and 60Co from simulations based on the charge collection efficiency function were well consistent with those from experiments.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinicopathological features and prognosis of patients with small hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: The clinicopathological and follow-up data of 98 patients with small hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent R0 resection from January 2009 to December 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Results: All of the patients were followed up. Their postoperative 1-year, 3-year and 5-year overall survival rates were 99.0%, 91.7%, and 76.3%, respectively. Their postoperative median overall survival (OS) period was 52 months. The postoperative progression-free survival rates were 86.7%, 66.2% and 55.0%, respectively, and the median progression-free survival (PFS) period was 43.5 months. The univariate analysis showed that satellite nodules, liver capsule invasion and postoperative recurrence time were associated with OS (P<0.05), and long-term heavy drinking, satellite nodules and liver capsule invasion with PFS (P<0.05). The multivariate analysis indicated that long-term heavy drinking was an independent factor influencing the progression-free survival period of patients with small hepatocellular carcinoma (P=0.003) and postoperative recurrence time and liver capsule invasion were independent factors affecting their overall survival period (P<0.05). Conclusions: The treatment of small hepatocellular carcinoma still concentrates on the active treatment of surgery. It is beneficial to patients to minimize the resection scope of normal liver under the premise of R0 removal of tumor. Postoperative recurrence time of ≤2 years suggests poor prognosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma. Long-term heavy drinking can accelerate the recurrence of small hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
We report new limits on a spin-independent weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP)-nucleon interaction cross section using 39.5 kg days of data taken with a p-type point-contact germanium detector of 840 g fiducial mass at the Kuo-Sheng Reactor Neutrino Laboratory. Crucial to this study is the understanding of the selection procedures and, in particular, the bulk-surface events differentiation at the sub-keV range. The signal-retaining and background-rejecting efficiencies were measured with calibration gamma sources and a novel n-type point-contact germanium detector. Part of the parameter space in the cross section versus WIMP-mass implied by various experiments is probed and excluded.

Abstract
We report on a tunable intracavity optical parametric oscillator (IOPO) achieved using a two-dimensional (2D) periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) as simultaneously an electro-optic (EO) Bragg Q-switch and an optical frequency mixer (OFM) in a diode-pumped Nd:YVO(4) laser. The 2D periodic domain inversion structure is designed to provide two orthogonal reciprocal vectors to respectively satisfy the phase-matching conditions required by the two quasi-phase-matching devices (i.e., the PPLN EO Bragg deflector and the PPLN OFM). At a ~140-V Q-switching voltage and a 1-kHz switching rate, we obtained a signal wave at 1550 nm with a pulse energy of 9.7 μJ (corresponding to a peak power of ~2.4 kW) from the IOPO at 9.1-W diode pump power. Simultaneously we also observed multi-wavelength generation from the system originating in the single-pass parametric conversions in the 2D nonlinear photonic crystal structure. Temperature tuning of the IOPO signal wavelength in the eye-safe region was also demonstrated.

Abstract
We report a CW, watt-level, red, green, and blue (RGB) laser pumped by an economical multimode (1-nm linewidth) Yb-fiber laser at 1.064 mum. A singly resonant optical parametric oscillator at 1.56 mum has two intracavity sum-frequency generators for red and blue laser generation. An extracavity second harmonic generator converts the residual pump power into green laser radiation. At 25-W pump power, the laser generated 3.9, 0.456, and 0.49 W at 633, 532, and 450 nm, respectively. The multimode pump laser offers a large temperature bandwidth for operating the RGB OPO without the need of a precision crystal temperature stabilizer.

Abstract
We report a mid-infrared, CW singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (OPO) with a thermally induced waveguide in its gain crystal. We measured a numerical aperture of 0.0062 for the waveguide at 80-W intracavity power at 3.2 microm. This thermal-guiding effect benefits to the stable operation of an OPO and improves the parametric conversion efficiency by more than a factor of two when compared with that without thermal guiding.

Abstract
We report the observation of thermal-induced optical guiding and bistability in a mid-IR cw, singly resonant optical parametric oscillator (SRO) at approximately 3.2 microm. The SRO employs a MgO:PPLN crystal as the gain medium and a 1-nm-linewidth Yb-fiber laser at 1.064 microm as the pump source. As soon as the pump power reaches the thermal guiding threshold at 16.5 W, the SRO shows a step increase in the parametric efficiency by a factor of 2.5. At 25 W pump power, the SRO generated 5.3 and 1.2 W at 1.58 and 3.23 microm, respectively, with single-longitudinal-mode performance for the 3.23 microm radiation.

Abstract
We report a low-threshold, narrow-line THz-wave parametric oscillator with an intra-cavity grazing-incidence grating and a 1-mm thick, 45-mm long lithium-niobate planar waveguide. When pumped by an actively Q-switched Nd:YAG laser, the threshold energy and intensity of the parametric oscillator were about 2.2 mJ and 70 MW/cm(2), respectively. The linewidths of the output THz wave were 12 and 134 GHz with and without the intra-cavity grating, respectively.

Abstract
We report terahertz-wave generation in the wavelength range of 190 - 210 and 457 - 507 microm from forward and backward difference frequency generations, respectively, in a 3.2-cm long multi-grating periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal. The grating period of the PPLN crystal varies form 63 to 70 microm in 1-microm increments. The extraordinary refractive index of lithium niobate in the THz-wave range was precisely deduced from the quasi-phase-matching condition of the difference frequency generations.

Abstract
We report a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal for both temperature-insensitive laser Q-switching and temperature-tuned wavelength conversion. The PPLN crystal consists of two sections, a 20.3-mum period section functioning as an electro-optic Bragg grating for Qswitching a diode-pumped Nd:YVO4 laser at 1064 nm and a 31-mum-period section functioning as an optical parametric generator for down converting the generated 1064-nm laser. When driving the PPLN Bragg grating with 170-V voltage pulses, we measured 181 muJ pulse energy at 1064 nm from the Nd:YVO4 laser pumped by 20.4 W diode power. The 181-muJ pulsed laser was further converted into mid-infrared radiation in the monolithic PPLN crystal with 35% parametric efficiency. The wavelengths were broadly tunable in the range of 1.75-1.88 mum (signal) and 2.7-2.44 mum (idler) via temperature without affecting the performance of the PPLN Bragg Qswitch.

Abstract
We report the observation of light-enhanced electro-optic spectral tuning in annealed proton-exchanged, asymmetric domain-duty-cycle periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) channel waveguides for second-harmonic generation. The spectral tuning rate was increased rapidly from 0.07 nm/(kV/mm) to a saturated value of 0.32 nm/(kV/mm) in a 30%/70% domain-duty-cycle PPLN waveguide when the fundamental pump power near 1534 nm was increased from 0.6 to 46 mW. The second-harmonic laser power at 767 nm was identified to be the source enhancing the spectral tuning.

Abstract
A search of neutrino magnetic moment was carried out at the Kuo-Sheng Nuclear Power Station at a distance of 28 m from the 2.9 GW reactor core. With a high purity germanium detector of mass 1.06 kg surrounded by scintillating NaI(Tl) and CsI(Tl) crystals as anti-Compton detectors, a detection threshold of 5 keV and a background level of 1 kg(-1) keV(-1) day(-1) at 12-60 keV were achieved. Based on 4712 and 1250 h of reactor ON and OFF data, respectively, the limit on the neutrino magnetic moment of mu(nu;(e))<1.3x10(-10)mu(B) at 90% confidence level was derived. An indirect bound of the nu;(e) radiative lifetime of m(3)(nu)tau(nu)>2.8x10(18) eV(3) s can be inferred.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cyn d 1, the major allergen of Bermuda grass pollen, contains some acidic/basic isoforms. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of some acidic Cyn d 1 isoforms were found to be different from those of Cyn d 1 cDNA clones identified previously. METHODS A predicted 17-meric oligonucleotide probe was designed to fish the unidentified isoallergen cDNAs out of BGP cDNA library. The reactive clones were isolated and verified by sequencing. Two of them were expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris to obtain recombinant Cyn d 1 proteins. RESULTS All four cDNA clones encode the full-length Cyn d 1 with mature proteins of 244 amino acid residues. A 97-99% identity was found among the deduced amino acids of these four clones while an 86% identity was elicited between the four clones and the ones previously identified. The predicted isoelectric focusing (pI) values of the newly identified Cyn d 1s are acidic while pIs of the previously identified Cyn d 1s are basic. The two recombinant acidic Cyn d 1 proteins possess the epitopes recognized by mouse and rabbit polyclonal anti-Cyn d 1 antibodies, and have human IgE-binding capacity as revealed by immunodot assay. CONCLUSIONS The present study identified full-length cDNAs encoding new isoallergens of Cyn d 1, and separated Cyn d 1 gene into an acidic group and a basic group.

Abstract
Hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide were used to disinfect hospital waste-water sludge. Their abilities to inactivate pathogenic micro-organisms were compared. Reductions in indigenous coliform organisms and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were estimated. The results indicate that hypochlorite is a better disinfectant than chlorine dioxide for coliforms. Higher disinfection efficiency was obtained by treating a lower concentration of sludge. In addition, a higher agitation speed gave a higher disinfection efficiency with hypochlorite. The disinfection efficiencies of both disinfectants were higher against settled sludge than against thickened sludge. Therefore, it is recommended that disinfection should be performed on settled sludge rather than in a thickening tank.

Abstract
Using the methods of electrophysiology, biochemistry, radioimmunoassay, and electron microscopy, changes of sympathetic nervous system and renal function in hypertensive SD rats induced by stress and high-salt intake were investigated. The results are as follows: (1) Renal plasma flow (RPF) and urinary sodium excretion obviously increased in salt-loading rats. Stress could result in marked reduction of RPF. (2) Electron micrography showed a dramatic increase in cell and mitochondrial volume in the proximal and distal convoluted tubules of high-salt diet rats. After stress of two weeks, the cells of the tubule became atrophic and mitochondrial volume decreased. (3) The same recovery from the declining renal cortical Na-K-ATPase activity in high-salt diet rats could be observed by maintained stress. (4) Low frequency (0.2-0.9 Hz) of BP variability was higher in stress rats as compared to control. (5) Both plasma renin activity (PRA) and angiotensin II (ANG II) levels increased in stress rats, but the decrease in high-salt diet rats gradually reached the high level of the former in two weeks. (6) Increase of BP, fall in RPF, or augment in PRA and ANG II were not observed in stress rats subjected to bilateral renal denervation. The above results indicate that the renal mechanism mediated by increased renal sympathetic nervous system plays an important role in stress- and salt-induced hypertension pathogenesis.

Abstract
The sludge from hospital waste treatment facilities is a potential source of infectious organisms. The average numbers of micro-organisms in the sludge of hospital wastewater in Taiwan were as follows: total count 8.1 x 10(7) cfu g-1 (dry weight of sludge), and 1.4 x 10(6), 3.6 x 10(5), 1.6 x 10(5), 2.2 x 10(5) and 5.5 x 10(4) cfu g-1 (dry weight of sludge) for total coliforms, faecal coliforms, faecal streptococci, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella spp., respectively. Salmonella spp. were detected in 37% (10 of 27) of the sludges from hospital wastewaters. Therefore, the treatment of such sludge to reduce pathogenic micro-organisms should be considered.

Abstract
The f2/f1 frequency ratio of 1.3 in combination with stimulus levels of L1/L2 = 50/60 and 50/50 dB SPL produced a higher level of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) in the heterozygous (+/dn) mice than in the homozygous (+/+) mice. These results suggest that the dn gene carriers have a unique cochlear trait which may be related to the dn gene locus and expressed via a frequency- and intensity-dependent DPOAE function.

Abstract
Morgagni-type diaphragmatic hernias are rare. The overwhelming majority are discovered in children who usually present with pneumonia or sepsis. We report an unusual case of a 57-yr-old woman with a Morgagni hernia presenting with pulmonary symptoms. Complicating the clinical picture, the pneumonia delayed the definitive diagnosis until a lateral chest X-ray study revealed loops of bowel in the right lower lung fields. It is important to entertain abdominal etiologies in the differential diagnosis of a thoracic density.

Abstract
Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) is able to inhibit the mutagenicity of 1-nitropyrene (1-NP) through the reduction of nitroreductase activity and formation of adducts with DNA. The relationships between the chemical structure of 9 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and antagonistic effects on the 1-NP-induced mutation were evaluated by the binary mixtures of 1-NP and PAHs with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 in the absence of S9 mix. Remarkably different antagonistic effects of 9 PAHs on the mutagenicity of 1-NP were observed. Among the tested PAHs, coronene demonstrates the most antagonistic potential followed by benzo[g,h,i]perylene (B[g,h,i]P), benzo[e]pyrene (B[e]P), dibenzo[a,h]pyrene (DB[a,h]P), benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and pyrene. Naphthalene, anthracene, and chrysene had only minor inhibitory activity on the 1-NP mutagenicity. The modifying effects of PAHs on the nitroreductase activity of TA98 strains in the presence of 1-NP were further examined from the production of 1-AP. The statistical analytical data showed that the inhibitory effect of PAHs on the mutagenicity of 1-NP significantly correlated with their effects on the nitroreductase activity (r = -0.69, p < 0.05). In addition, the formation of 1-NP-DNA adducts of the binary mixtures of 1-NP and PAH was determined by the 32P-postlabeling method. The results indicated that the modulatory effects of PAHs on the formation of 1-NP-DNA adducts were correlated well with their antagonistic activity (r = -0.91, P < 0.01). From the above results, the relationships between the chemical structure of PAHs and the antagonistic effects on the 1-NP mutagenicity were revealed by the surface area and electronic parameters of PAHs. The planar molecular area of PAHs was more convincingly correlated with the antagonistic effect on the mutagenicity of 1-NP (r = -0.81, p < 0.01) than that with the difference in energy, delta E, between EHOMO and ELUMO (r = 0.69, p < 0.05). According to the above, two possible mechanisms are involved in the interactive effect of the binary mixtures: (1) a higher binding affinity with nitroreductase for PAHs having a large planar surface area; and (2) a high energy of interaction between 1-NP and PAHs with a low delta E might decrease the nitroreductive capability.

Abstract
A case is reported of a newborn who presented with generalized hypotonia shortly after delivery. Creatine kinase (CK) was highly elevated. Muscle biopsy of the rectus femoris muscle revealed varying sized muscle fibers, displacement by fat and connective tissues, necrosis and regeneration of the muscle fibers. Magnetic resonance imaging (M.R.I.) of the brain showed normal development, compatible with the patient's age. Congenital muscular dystrophy was diagnosed from clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and the results of muscle biopsy.

Abstract
Original cohort members of the Framingham Study were studied to determine prognosis associated with unexplained (gradual-onset) Q wave patterns detected on routine electrocardiograms (ECGs). Biennial ECGs were obtained on subjects beginning in 1948. The index ECG was read independently and then serially in relation to all previous tracings for evidence of myocardial infarction. Proportional hazards modeling was used to assess the risk for outcomes in those with unexplained (gradual-onset) Q wave patterns compared with subjects with unrecognized myocardial infarcts (abrupt-onset Q waves) and compared with referent subjects. Unexplained Q wave patterns developed in 53 men and 39 women. Subjects with unexplained Q wave patterns had less than 40% of the risk for myocardial infarction or coronary death as compared with those with unrecognized myocardial infarction after adjusting for risk factors (hazard ratio, 0.38; 95% confidence interval, 0.19, 0.78; P = .008) and a trend toward a lower risk for overall mortality (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.73; 95% confidence interval, 0.46, 1.16; P = .18). Risks for myocardial infarction or coronary death and overall mortality were similar in subjects with unexplained Q wave patterns and referent subjects in the fully adjusted models. Detection of prominent Q waves on an ECG requires comparison with prior tracings to differentiate the unexplained Q wave pattern from the unrecognized infarct, conditions that have significantly different prognostic implications.

Abstract
Anemia of prematurity (AOP) has been conventionally treated with erythrocyte transfusions. Recent investigations have reported the use of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) as an alternative for treating AOP. The potential of rHuEPO in increasing erythropoiesis implies its clinical usefulness. The effect of rHuEPO on reticulocyte count as well as other parameters of blood cells was examined in 14 premature babies with AOP. The average birth body weight and gestational age of these premature babies were 1533.71 +/- 61.66 g (Mean +/- SEM) and 31.36 +/- 0.49 weeks respectively. They received the first dose of rHuEPO at age 26.14 +/- 2.03 days with a hemoglobin level by 9.40 +/- 0.27 g/dL and hematocrit level of 28.20 +/- 0.81%. They were given rHuEPO 200 U/kg subcutaneously every other day for 10 doses, and iron 3 mg/kg and vitamin E 25 IU/kg per os every day. Average erythropoietin level of the patients on entry into this study was low (7.66 +/- 1.10 mu/mL). After treatment with rHuEPO for 20 days, the corrected reticulocyte count increased from 0.64 +/- 0.10% to 1.68 +/- 0.42% on Day 5 (P < 0.05), 1.96 +/- 0.41% on Day 12 (P < 0.05), 1.77 +/- 0.43% on Day 20 (P < 0.05), and hematocrit increased from 28.2 +/- 0.81% to 29.58 +/- 1.02% (p < 0.05) on Day 20. Bone marrow aspirates on Day 10 for 9 infants revealed moderate to high cellularity, mostly with erythroblasts (47.89 +/- 1.78%); the M/E ratio was low (0.57 +/- 0.05). The granulocyte series and megakaryocyte could be well visualised.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Persistent omphalomesenteric band is a rare cause of volvulus or intestinal obstruction. A 7-month-old male infant was brought to this Emergency Room after having shown poor appetite for three days, frequent bilious vomiting, and fever for half a day. Physical examination revealed the infant was dehydrated and had slight abdominal distension as well as hypoactive bowel sounds with a tender, ill-defined mass over right lower quadrant. Radiography and sonography were consistent with distal small bowel obstruction. Emergent laparotomy was done and a fibrous band found extending from the anti-mesenteric border of the ileum to the posterior wall of the umbilicus. Small bowel volvulus had occurred around the band and dilated small bowel was noted. An understanding of the embryologic development of these structures and their normal disappearance may assist pediatricians and surgeons to make the correct diagnosis and select the right pathoanatomic approach in surgery.

Abstract
Calcium-iron phosphate glasses with an iron oxide content ranging from 5 wt.% to 22 wt.% were prepared to investigate the effect of iron oxide on the properties of the glass. It was found that the dissolution rate, the fibre strength and the glass transition temperature were strongly affected by iron oxide. The glass dissolution rate exhibited a 50-fold reduction while the fibre strength doubled when the iron oxide content was increased from 5 wt.% to 22 wt.%. The phosphate glass containing 22 wt.% of iron oxide had a dissolution rate of about 5 micrograms/(cm2 day). The fibres drawn from this glass also exhibited the highest tensile strength over 1000 MPa. A cortical bone plug method was used to assess the biocompatibility of the glasses with the hard and soft tissues. The tissues surrounding the samples showed no inflammation at 9 wk.
