Extensive composable entropy for the analysis of cosmological data by Constantino Tsallis, Henrik Jeldtoft Jensen

“…Still, its intriguing area dependence points out the relevance of considering the form W(N)∼μNγ(μ>1;γ>0), W and N respectively being the total number of microscopic possibilities and the number of components; γ=1 corresponds to standard Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics. For this W(N) asymptotic behavior, we make use of the group-theoretic entropic functional Sα,γ=k[ln⁡Σi=1Wpiα1−α]1γ(α∈R;S1,1=SBG≡−k∑i=1Wpiln⁡pi), first derived by P. …”

Solution for Processing Pelvic Bone Metastases with Halcyon TM 2.0 on Lateral and Longitudinal Isocenters Treatment Plans Using the VMAT Technique: A Comparative Study by Morad Erraoudi, Kaoutar El Bouchiti, Yassine Herrassi, mohamed El ghalmi, Yassir Raoui, Youssef Bouzekraoui, FARIDA BENTAYEB, Lalla Btissam Drissi

“…Introduction: Treatment of pelvic bone metastases using a Halcyon machine, mostly presents some difficulties to plan, especially for big volumes because of the machine field size. The purpose of this study is to use two lateral isocenters in the treatment of pelvic bone metastases with the Halcyon machine, in order to overcome its limitations in treating large volumes.Material and Methods: We report a retrospective study of 8 patients who received radiotherapy for pelvic bone metastases, all treated by two different VMAT techniques. …”

Characterization of Follicular Atresia Responsive to BPA in Zebrafish by Morphometric Analysis of Follicular Stage Progression by M. Migliaccio, T. Chioccarelli, C. Ambrosino, A. Suglia, F. Manfrevola, O. Carnevali, S. Fasano, R. Pierantoni, G. Cobellis

“…In particular, BPA exposure (i) increases follicular recruitment by acting on primary stage follicles, (ii) forces the follicular transition from stage III to stage IV producing enlarged stage IV follicles, and (iii) induces atresia by producing atretic follicles that are peculiarly enlarged (i.e., big atretic follicles). We suggest that BPA induces atresia by the primary effect on recruitment of stage I follicles. …”
