A Pelvic Abscess and a Pelvic Stone Secondary to a Ureteral Calculus by Bo-Ran An, Ze-Peng Ma, Chao Gao

“…Recent abdominal computed tomography (CT) images revealed that his left kidney atrophy still exists, and a pelvic stone was found at the site of the original abscess. This case once again proves that a ureteral calculus should be treated in time; otherwise, it can lead to serious complications such as a pelvic abscess and renal atrophy. …”

"An overgrown monster": London in Some Eighteenth-Century Writings by Hélène Dachez

“…Londres, lieu malléable par excellence, où alternent circulation déréglée et menace de stase, devient le lieu de tous les excès, et les auteurs mettent en avant un processus de contamination réciproque entre les êtres répréhensibles qui y pullulent et la capitale parasite, corrompue et corruptrice.Il faut alors souligner et analyser le traitement particulièrement original que propose Samuel Richardson (qui partage avec Samuel Johnson un amour immense pour la capitale), dans Clarissa, où Londres joue un rôle primordial dans le destin des personnages et dans l’économie du roman.…”

Flight Safety Assessment Based on a Modified Human Reliability Quantification Method by Yundong Guo, Youchao Sun, Xiufang Yang, Zongpeng Wang

“…Human error is one of the most important risk factors affecting aviation safety. The original Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM) developed for the nuclear industry is reliable for human reliability quantification, but it is not fully applicable to human reliability analysis in aviation because it neglects the characteristics of long-duration flights. …”

The consequence of day-to-day stochastic dose deviation from the planned dose in fractionated radiation therapy by Subhadip Paul, Prasun Kumar Roy

“…Our analysis implies that, compared to the premise of the Linear Quadratic Linear (LQL) framework, the Linear Quadratic framework based analytical formulation under-estimates the required dose per fraction necessary to produce the same biological effective dose as originally planned. Our study provides analytical formulation to calculate iso-effect in adaptive radiation therapy considering day-to-day stochastic dose deviation from planned dose and also indicates the potential utility of LQL framework in this context.…”
