Complex motion of Greenland Ice Sheet outlet glaciers with basal temperate ice.

Uncertainty associated with ice sheet motion plagues sea level rise predictions. Much of this uncertainty arises from imperfect representations of physical processes including basal slip and internal ice deformation, with ice sheet models largely incapable of reproducing borehole-based observations. Here, we model isolated three-dimensional domains from fast-moving (Sermeq Kujalleq/Store Glacier) and slow-moving (Isunnguata Sermia) ice sheet settings in Greenland.

Ascites as the Presenting Sign of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Although systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can manifest differently in each patient, ascites is a rare first sign. The diagnosis of SLE can be easily missed when the initial presentation is uncommon. A 39-year-old male presented with painless abdominal fullness and was found to have ascites, thrombocytopenia, and anemia.

Enteroviral Meningoencephalitis as a Complication of Rituximab Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Enteroviral meningoencephalitis is a rare complication of rituximab therapy that has been described in the treatment of hematologic malignancies. We report the first case of enteroviral meningoencephalitis in a patient receiving rituximab for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. A 37-year-old female treated with rituximab for severe rheumatoid arthritis presented with fever, headache, confusion, and tremor.

Surface osteosarcoma: Predictors of outcomes.

Background And Objectives: The subtypes of surface osteosarcomas include well-differentiated, low-grade parosteal osteosarcoma (POS), intermediate-grade periosteal osteosarcoma (PerOS), high-grade surface osteosarcoma (HGSO), and high-grade, dedifferentiated POS (dPOS). We aimed to determine disease progression, defined as local recurrence and metastatic disease, and overall (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS). We identify outcome predictive factors and report functional results.

Computer-assisted learning in anatomy at the international medical school in Debrecen, Hungary: a preliminary report.

The University of Debrecen's Faculty of Medicine has an international, multilingual student population with anatomy courses taught in English to all but Hungarian students. An elective computer-assisted gross anatomy course, the Computer Human Anatomy (CHA), has been taught in English at the Anatomy Department since 2008. This course focuses on an introduction to anatomical digital images along with clinical cases.
