Primary hepatic Castleman disease.

Castleman disease (CD) is a rare, benign lymphoproliferative disorder with characteristic histopathological features, but variable aetiology, presentation, treatment and prognosis. It is broadly classified based on its location and histopathological features, with unicentric hyaline vascular disease presenting most commonly. We present a case of primary, unicentric hepatic CD that was incidentally found on imaging and managed with laparoscopic resection.

Microplastics impact simple aquatic food web dynamics through reduced zooplankton feeding and potentially releasing algae from consumer control.

Concentrations of microplastics in aquatic environments continue to rise due to industrial production and pollution. While there are various concerns regarding potential deleterious effects of microplastics on ecosystems, several knowledge gaps remain, including the potential for microplastics to directly and indirectly affect biotic interactions and food web dynamics. We explored the effects of environmentally relevant microplastic concentrations on two co-exposed species of herbaceous freshwater crustaceous zooplankton, filter feeding Daphnia dentifera and selective phytoplankton grazers Arctodiaptomus dorsalis.

Review of Recent Progress on Advanced Photocathodes for Superconducting RF Guns.

As is well known, the quality of the photocathodes is essential for the stability and reliability of photoinjector operations. Especially for superconducting radio frequency photoinjectors (SRF guns), the photocathode represents one of the most critical parts. Benefiting from the fast development of photocathode technology in recent years, several SRF guns have been successfully operated or tested for beam generation at the kHz-MHz repetition rate.
