Final CONUS Results on Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering at the Brokdorf Reactor.

The CONUS experiment studies coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering in four 1 kg germanium spectrometers. Low ionization energy thresholds of 210 eV were achieved. The detectors were operated inside an optimized shield at the Brokdorf nuclear power plant which provided a reactor antineutrino flux of up to 2.

Increased Density of Growth Differentiation Factor-15+ Immunoreactive M1/M2 Macrophages in Prostate Cancer of Different Gleason Scores Compared with Benign Prostate Hyperplasia.

Although growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is highly expressed in PCa, its role in the development and progression of PCa is unclear. The present study aims to determine the density of GDF-15+ cells and immune cells (M1-/M2 macrophages [MΦ], lymphocytes) in PCa of different Gleason scores (GS) compared to BPH. Immunohistochemistry and double immunofluorescence were performed on paraffin-embedded human PCa and BPH biopsies with antibodies directed against GDF-15, CD68 (M1 MΦ), CD163 (M2 MΦ), CD4, CD8, CD19 (T /B lymphocytes), or PD-L1.

Retrospective Analysis of the Development of Human Thyroglobulin during Pregnancy in Patients with Treated Non-Recurrent Differentiated Thyroid Cancer.

Aim: Therapy success in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) after thyroidectomy and radioiodine therapy (RIT) is proven by permanent decrease in human thyroglobulin (hTg) to <1 ng/mL. In this retrospective analysis hTg development before, during and after pregnancy were analyzed. Material and methods: A descriptive analysis of hTg courses in 47 women with 57 pregnancies under levothyroxine substitution was performed after treatment of DTC without evidence of residual or recurrent disease.

Constraints on Elastic Neutrino Nucleus Scattering in the Fully Coherent Regime from the CONUS Experiment.

We report the best limit on coherent elastic scattering of electron antineutrinos emitted from a nuclear reactor off germanium nuclei. The measurement was performed with the CONUS detectors positioned at 17.1 m from the 3.

The broken circle method: a novel technique that enhances detection of Hill-Sachs lesions on internal rotation shoulder radiographs.

Aim: To describe and test a new method that increases the conspicuity of a Hill-Sachs lesion on internal rotation (IR) radiographs.

Materials And Methods: This study had institutional review board approval. A retrospective search for patients with a prior shoulder dislocation and a Hill-Sachs lesion documented on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed over a 10-year period identifying 256 test patients.
