In a turbulent fluid, the time-reversal symmetry is explicitly broken by viscosity, and spontaneously broken in the inviscid limit. Recently, Drivas [J. Nonlinear Sci.

We introduce a model of interacting singularities of Navier-Stokes equations, named pinçons. They follow non-equilibrium dynamics, obtained by the condition that the velocity field around these singularities obeys locally Navier-Stokes equations. This model can be seen as a generalization of the vorton model of Novikov that was derived for the Euler equations.

A subset of benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors are "hybrid" combining several lines of differentiation, most often schwannian and perineurial features. The pathogenesis of these tumors was poorly described until the recent discovery of recurrent VGLL3 rearrangements in hybrid schwannoma/perineuriomas, supporting the hypothesis that this entity represents a distinct subgroup of tumors and not only a morphologic variation of other peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Following this finding, we investigated 10 cases of hybrid peripheral nerve sheath tumors with immunohistochemistry, RNA sequencing, and array comparative genomic hybridization.

Background: Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) represent a heterogeneous group of rare tumors including more than 70 different histological subtypes. High throughput molecular analysis (next generation sequencing exome [NGS]) is a unique opportunity to identify driver mutations that can change the usual one-size-fits-all treatment paradigm to a patient-driven therapeutic strategy. The primary objective of the MULTISARC trial is to assess whether NGS can be conducted for a large proportion of metastatic STS participants within a reasonable time, and, secondarily to determine whether a NGS-guided therapeutic strategy improves participant's outcome.

Aims: Superficial CD34-positive fibroblastic tumor (SCD34FT) and PRDM10-rearranged soft tissue tumor (PRDM10-STT) are rare mesenchymal tumors. These lesions have clinicopathological similarities, but their relationship remains controversial. This study aimed to characterise a series of cases of SCD34FT and PRDM10-STT.

Background: Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) is the most frequent, aggressive and less-characterized sarcoma subtype. This study aims to assess UPS molecular characteristics and identify specific therapeutic targets.

Methods: High-throughput technologies encompassing immunohistochemistry, RNA-sequencing, whole exome-sequencing, mass spectrometry, as well as radiomics were used to characterize three independent cohorts of 110, 25 and 41 UPS selected after histological review performed by an expert pathologist.

Background: Whole exome sequencing and RNA sequencing (WES/RNASeq) should now be implemented in the clinical practice in order to increase access to optimal care for cancer patients. Providing results to Tumour Boards in a relevant time frame-that is, compatible with the clinical pathway-is crucial. Assessing the feasibility of this implementation in the French care system is the primary objective of the Multipli study, as one of the four pilot projects of the national France Genomic Medicine 2025 (FGM 2025) plan.

Acral soft tissue tumors are common neoplasms, a subset of which pose a diagnostic challenge. We report 10 cases of a previously unrecognized acral benign soft tissue tumor. These tumors arose on the fingers and toes and involved bone in half of cases.

Purpose: loss is frequent in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and associated with aggressive outcome. Palbociclib is a CDK4 inhibitor with preclinical antitumor efficacy in tumors with P16/CDKN2A loss.

Patients And Methods: This is a multicenter single-arm phase II clinical trial assessing safety and efficacy of palbociclib in patients with advanced GIST bearing gene loss.

This paper investigates the universality of the Eulerian velocity structure functions using velocity fields obtained from the stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (SPIV) technique in experiments and direct numerical simulations (DNS) of the Navier-Stokes equations. It shows that the numerical and experimental velocity structure functions up to order 9 follow a log-universality (Castaing et al. 1993); this leads to a collapse on a universal curve, when units including a logarithmic dependence on the Reynolds number are used.
