The co-occurrence of Thrombocytopenia with Absent Radius (TAR) syndrome and Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) is exceedingly rare, with scant documentation in existing medical literature. This case report aims to shed light on this unique intersection of conditions, emphasizing the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges it presents. A 27-year-old female with a history of TAR syndrome presented with microcytic anemia, hip pain, and gastrointestinal symptoms.

NOAA has developed a global reference evapotranspiration (ET) reanalysis using the UN Food and Agriculture Organization formulation (FAO-56) of the Penman-Monteith equation forced by MERRA phase 2 (MERRA2) meteorological and radiative drivers. The NOAA ET reanalysis is provided daily from January 1, 1980 to the near-present at a resolution of 0.5° latitude × 0.

The objective of the Indianapolis Flux Experiment (INFLUX) is to develop, evaluate and improve methods for measuring greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from cities. INFLUX's scientific objectives are to quantify CO and CH emission rates at 1 km resolution with a 10% or better accuracy and precision, to determine whole-city emissions with similar skill, and to achieve high (weekly or finer) temporal resolution at both spatial resolutions. The experiment employs atmospheric GHG measurements from both towers and aircraft, atmospheric transport observations and models, and activity-based inventory products to quantify urban GHG emissions.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed a high-resolution monitoring system for CO emissions in Indianapolis using a network of surface towers that measure greenhouse gases continuously.
  • During the 2012-2013 dormant season, they found CO emissions increased by about 20% compared to previous estimates, indicating potential inaccuracies in earlier emission models.
  • The study suggests that with adequate data, atmospheric inversions can help more precisely define a city's carbon budget, although improvements on understanding past emission errors are necessary for better spatial analysis.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the lung is a rare malignancy with few cases reported in the literature. Histologically, it is composed by spindle cells and an infiltrate of inflammatory cells. Children and young, non-smoking adults constitute the majority of cases, the clinical behavior ranges from a benign entity to a malignant process with rapid recurrence and metastatic progression.
