Abstract:
Despite emerging targeted and immunotherapy treatments, no monoclonal antibodies or antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) directly targeting tumor cells are currently approved for melanoma therapy. The tumor-associated antigen chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4), a neural crest glycoprotein over-expressed on 70% of melanomas, contributes to proliferative signaling pathways, but despite highly tumor-selective expression it has not yet been targeted using ADCs. We developed a novel ADC comprising an anti-CSPG4 antibody linked to a DNA minor groove-binding agent belonging to the novel pyrridinobenzodiazepine (PDD) class. Unlike conventional DNA-interactive pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) dimer payloads that cross-link DNA, PDD-based payloads are mono-alkylating agents but have similar efficacy and substantially enhanced tolerability profiles compared to PBD-based cross-linkers. We investigated the anti-tumor activity and safety of the anti-CSPG4-(PDD) ADC in vitro and in human melanoma xenografts. Anti-CSPG4-(PDD) inhibited CSPG4-expressing melanoma cell growth and colony formation and triggered apoptosis in vitro at low nanomolar to picomolar concentrations without off-target Fab-mediated or Fc-mediated toxicity. Anti-CSPG4-(PDD) restricted xenograft growth in vivo at 2 mg/kg doses. One 5 mg/kg injection triggered tumor regression in the absence of overt toxic effects or of acquired residual tumor cell resistance. This anti-CSPG4-(PDD) can deliver a highly cytotoxic DNA mono-alkylating payload to CSPG4-expressing tumors at doses tolerated in vivo.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction The ability of laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) to provide real-time images of blood flow makes this modality appealing in the assessment of burn wounds, particularly for clinicians making treatment decisions based on burn wound depth and presumed progression. Here we present 2 preclinical studies that used LSCI to assess wound progress, both immediately and months after injury. Methods LSCI images were taken 10-40cm away from the wound and captured with a 1388x1038-pixel CCD camera. In the first study, LSCI images were captured prior to and immediately following creation of superficial partial-thickness (SPTB, 10s), deep partial-thickness (DPTB, 15s), and full-thickness burns (FTB, 20s), and on post-burn day (PBD) 1, 2, and 3. In the second study, LSCI images were obtained before and after DPTB creation and on PBD 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, 90, and 120. Results 92 wounds from 9 swine were included. Speckle data was normalized to control sites and converted to percentages ([speckle wound/speckle control] x 100), producing speckle percentage of control (SPOC) which quantifies the relative decrease or increase in speckle output (vascularity). SPOC was significantly decreased for all burn times on PBD 0, 1, and 2. By PBD 3, only DPTB and FTB remained diminished (p=0.028 and p=0.005, respectively), and FTB SPOC was significantly less than the SPTB (p=0.015). In the second study, SPOC showed an increase post-debridement on PBD 7, noted as post-debridement day (PDD) 0. SPOC continued to increase significantly to a peak at PDD 7 (p< 0.0001) and remained elevated until PDD 28. By PDD 60, SPOC was no longer significantly increased. Conclusions LSCI is a reliable method for analyzing burn depth and wound progression in the preclinical setting. LSCI data shows an immediate decrease in vascularity at all burn depths immediately following burn creation, followed by a peak in vascularity on PDD 7, with a trend back to normal by PDD 60. Applicability of Research to Practice The correlation of wound bed vascularity based on LSCI to known data on burn depth and progression suggests that LSCI could be a useful measurement tool in the clinical setting for the provider determining wound viability.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To verify differences in the visual scanning strategies between pervasive developmental disorders (PDD) and controls when they are observing social and non-social pictures. METHOD: PDD group (PDDG) comprised by 10 non-retarded subjects (age from 4 to 41) and age-matched control group (CG). Nine social pictures with human beings (including two pictures of cat mask), and 3 nonsocial pictures of objects were presented for 5 seconds. Saccadic movements and fixation were recorded with equipment EyeGaze® (LC Technologies Inc.). RESULTS: PDDG (mean=292.73, SE=67.62) presented longer duration of saccadic movements for social pictures compared to CG (mean=136.06, SE=14.01) (p=0.04). The CG showed a higher number of fixations in the picture 7 (a women using a cat mask, with the eyes erased) (CG: mean=3.40; PDDG: mean=1.80; p=0.007). CONCLUSION: The results suggest differences in strategies that PDD explore human picture. Moreover, these strategies seem not to be affected by the lack of expected part of the face (the eyes).

Abstract:
Quasi-crystals shocked the crystallographic world when they were reported in 1984. We now know that they are not a rare exception, and can be found in many alloy systems. One of the richer systems for quasi-crystals and their approximants is Al−Co−Ni. A large series of pseudo-decagonal (PD) approximants have been found. Only two of them, PD4 and PD8, have been solved by X-ray crystallography. We report here the structures of PD1, PD2, PD3 and PD5, solved from the limited information that is provided by electron diffraction patterns, unit cell dimensions and high-resolution electron microscopy images.

Abstract:
Neste trabalho foram revisados os principais modelos, para a avaliação do risco de crédito e para o provisionamento de perdas com clientes, concluindo-se com uma proposta de adoção de um modelo estatístico, com o objetivo de medir o risco associado ao financiamento e empréstimo a clientes, com o conseqüente impacto na mensuração dos ativos. Sem o objetivo de exaurir o assunto, foram adotados os passos relacionados a seguir para o desenvolvimento do tema até a proposição final. Na introdução, são feitas as justificativas sobre o tema, qual a questão problema associada ao tema e os desafios da contabilidade quanto à mensuração dos ativos. Em relação à gestão de riscos, são relacionados os tipos de riscos em geral, detalhado o risco de crédito em particular e avaliados os modelos de concessão de crédito. Sobre a constituição da Provisão para Devedores Duvidosos, foram pesquisados os principais autores de contabilidade e de finanças, onde se constatou proposições semelhantes, que podem ser resumidas em 4 modelos de provisionamento para Perdas com Devedores Duvidosos: 1. Baixa – "Write-off"; 2. Percentual sobre as vendas; 3. Percentual sobre o montante de contas a receber; 4. Idade da carteira – "aging". Em seguida são analisadas as correlações entre os modelos de previsão de insolvência e as perdas com crédito, onde é possível identificar que os modelos de insolvência são úteis para a concessão do crédito, mas pouco utilizados para a estimativa da perda provável com devedores duvidosos. Em 21 de dezembro de 1999, o Banco Central do Brasil, emitiu a Resolução 2.682, na qual recomenda às instituições financeiras que alterem suas metodologias de provisionamento para perdas com devedores duvidosos. O Banco Central, entretanto, não indica qual modelo utilizar, deixando a cargo de cada instituição o desenvolvimento dos modelos. Utilizando a norma do Banco Central como referência, e procurando um embasamento científico para a constituição da PDD, é proposto um modelo para a sua constituição, modelo esse testado e avaliado, tanto em conformidade às normas do Banco Central, como com orientação gerencial. Para tanto, foi desenvolvido um modelo estatístico, aplicando-se a técnica da regressão logística, a 202 clientes de uma instituição financeira, onde foi possível concluir-se que o uso do modelo, na constituição da Provisão para Devedores Duvidosos, poderá trazer benefícios na mensuração do real valor dos investimentos em contas a receber.
This project aims at evaluating the used models and proposing the adoption of new models, for the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, with the objective of measuring the risk related to customers financing and loan activities, and the resulting impact in assets measurements. In order to achieve this goal and try not to over exploit the subject, the following steps related to the development of the theme were adopted. In the introduction the theme is explained; the main issue associated to the theme and the challenges the accounting has to face concerning the assets measurements. As for the risk management the general kinds of risks are described, particularly the credit risk and the credit concession models are evaluated. Referring to the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts constitution, most meaningful authors in the field of Accounting and Finance were researched and similar propositions underlined their writings; that can be summarized in 4 allowance models for Doubtful Accounts. 1. Write off; 2. Percentage over the sales; 3. Percentage over receivables; 4. Aging. Then the correlations between the models of insolvency prediction and the credit losses are analyzed where it is possible to verify that the insolvency models are useful for credit concession, though not very much used for estimating probable loss with Doubtful Accounts. The Central Bank of Brazil (Banco Central do Brasil) issued the act number 2682 on the 21st of December, 1999, that urges all financial institutions to change their methodologies of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Central Bank, however, does not indicate the model to be used, leaving the task of developing the models to each institution. Based on the policy of Central Bank and keeping a scientific approach to the constitution of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, a model for their constitution in the portfolio is proposed. Such model is tested and evaluated not only, according to the rules of Central Bank of Brazil, but also in terms of management orientation. Having this purpose in mind a statistic model was developed, using LOGIT Regression applied to 202 customers of a financial institution where it was possible to come to the conclusion that the use of the model in the constitution of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts can bring benefits in measuring the real value of investments in Receivables.

Abstract:
Este estudo retrospectivo revisa os achados radiográficos em exames simples e contrastados de 38 aves psittaciformes com alterações no proventrículo. Os dados foram obtidos do Serviço de Diagnóstico por imagem do departamento de cirurgia junto ao Hospital Veterinário da Faculdade de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia da Universidade de São Paulo, durante o período de janeiro de 2004 a abril de 2012. A distribuição das alterações, assim como as suas respectivas espécies e idades, foram estudadas. O sexo das aves não foi considerado neste estudo. A espécie Amazona aestiva (papagaio-verdadeiro) alcançou a porcentagem mais elevada (44,8%) entre as diversas ordens, seguidos pelos Nymphicus hollandicus (Calopsita) (28,9%). Neste período de oito anos, os sintomas mais comuns observados na anamnese foram a \"apatia/prostração\" e \"anorexia/prostração\" (52,63% cada). Entre as suspeitas clínicas mais frequentes, a doença da dilatação do proventrículo (PDD) foi a mais citada (26,32%). O achado radiográfico mais frequentemente observado foi a \"dilatação do proventrículo por conteúdo de radiodensidade gás e líquido\" (34,21%). A medição do proventrículo foi um dado descrito em 34,84% dos laudos. Dentre as aves estudadas com alterações radiográficas em proventrículo, o exame radiográfico contrastado por sulfato de bário foi solicitado em 26,32% dos casos, onde o achado radiográfico mais comum foi a \"retenção do meio de contraste ou evolução lenta do mesmo\". Dentre os casos com suspeita clínica de PDD, os únicos nos quais foi possível obter confirmação foram aqueles em que foi solicitado o exame contrastado. Algumas aves também exibiram alterações radiográficas inespecíficas. A dilatação de proventrículo em si não é patognomônica para PDD, visto que esta pode vir de forma atípica e que há diversas outras doenças que causam alterações semelhantes.
This retrospective study examines radiographic findings of plain and contrastenhanced examinations of 38 psittacine birds presenting proventricular abnormalities. The data were obtained by the Image Diagnostic Service of the Veterinary Hospital of the School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science of the University of São Paulo between January 2004 and April 2012. The distribution of the abnormalities, as well as the birds species and ages, were also investigated. The birds sex was not taken into account. The highest percentage among the different orders (44.8%) was observed among specimens of Amazona aestiva (Blue-fronted Parrot), followed by Nymphicus hollandicus (Cockatiel) (28.9%). In the eight-year period of the study, the most common symptoms were \"apathy/weakness\" and \"anorexia/weakness\" (52.63% each.) Proventricular Dilatation Disease (PDD) was the most frequent clinical suspicion (26.32%.) The most commonly observed radiographic abnormality was a \"Proventricular dilatation caused by content of gas and water radiodensity\" (34.21%.) The measurements of the proventriculus were described in 34.84% of all reports. Among the birds studied with radiographic alterations in proventriculus, radiographic examination contrasted by barium sulfate was required in 26.32% of cases. The most common findings were \"retention or slow transit of the contrast agent\". The only cases with a clinical suspicion of PDD for which it was possible to obtain a confirmation were those for which a contrast-enhanced examination was ordered. Some birds also presented radiographic abnormalities of uncertain diagnosis. A proventricular dilatation in itself is not pathognomonic of PDD inasmuch as said disease may present in an atypical manner and several other diseases may cause similar abnormalities.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: At birth every human being is at the starting point of many different journeys: journeys of discovery and change, and journeys of mental and physical growth. Most children follow a similar path of physical and mental growth to adulthood, achieving predetermined milestones at approximately the same age. But what happens to a child who cannot follow this path, a child born without a map? How do the diagnosis and subsequent educational journey of the child affect the parents of that child, parents who find themselves disabled by their experiences of parenthood and life? This study is an autoethnography. It was undertaken to reflect on the physical and emotional journey two parents experienced in finding an educational niche for their son who was diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Delay – Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS), an Autism Spectrum Disorder. In an attempt to engage and involve the non-academic audience, while at the same time addressing the analytical needs of the researcher audience, evocative autoethnographic co-constructed narratives were combined with analytic autoethnography. Not only did I aim to fill in some of the gaps in researcher knowledge about South African parents’ experiences in finding educational support for their children with pervasive developmental delays, but I also wanted to provide knowledge, hope and encouragement to other parents, especially those parents who are at the start of a journey leading to a brighter future for their child with special needs.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: By geboorte bevind elke mens hom by die beginpunt van verskeie reise: reise van ontdekking en verandering, en reise van geestelike en fisieke groei. Die meeste kinders volg ‘n gelyksoortige roete van geestelike en fisieke groei na volwassenheid, deur voorafbepaalde doelwitte op naastenby ooreenstemmende ouderdomme te bereik. Maar wat gebeur met ‘n kind wat nie hierdie pad kan volg nie, ‘n kind wat sonder ‘n roetekaart gebore word? Hoe beïnvloed die diagnose en gevolglike opvoedkundige reis van daardie kind sy of haar ouers, ouers wat hulself gestremd bevind in hul ervaring van ouerskap en die lewe? Hierdie studie is ‘n outo-etnografie. Dit reflekteer op die fisieke en emosionele reis deur twee ouers onderneem, in hul soeke na ‘n geskikte onderwysnis vir hul seun wat met PDD-NOS1, ‘n Outisme Spektrumversteuring, gediagnoseer is. In ‘n poging om die nie-akademiese gehoor te betrek, maar terselfdertyd die analitiese behoeftes van die navorsergehoor aan te spreek, is die tegnieke van stemmingsvolle outo-etnografiese mede-saamgestelde narratiewe en analitiese outo-etnografie gekombineer. Ek het nie slegs ten doel gehad om sommige gapings in navorsing rondom die ervarings van Suid-Afrikaanse ouers van kinders met Outisme Spektrumversteurings te vul nie, maar ook om kennis, hoop en aanmoediging te gee aan ander ouers, veral daardie ouers wat aan die begin staan van ‘n reis na ‘n beter toekoms vir hul kind met spesiale behoeftes.

Abstract:
Photodynamic Detection (PDD) is a diagnostic technique involving administration of a photosensitizer to the targeted cells that can be stimulated by short wavelength light which then leads to emission of light at a different wavelength (lower energy). The light emitted by the cells can be detected and analysed (by a spectroscope). All cells have the innate ability (due to endogenous fluorophores) to fluoresce, termed autofluorescence. Any cellular, metabolic or structural changes can alter the fluorescence intensity peaks. In this study 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) photosensitizer prodrug was used, which is metabolised in highly active cells to protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). Excitation of a cell at 405nm wavelength (light) leads to emission of autofluorescence at 500nm and PpIX at 635nm. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the use of compact spectroscopy together with the photosensitizer prodrug 5-ALA, in assessing clinically suspicious oral lesions. To that end the followings were assessed: • The fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) or Red/Green ratio at 635/500nm measurements of normal anatomical sites at ten oral anatomical sites to map and create baseline readings for normal oral mucosal site fluorescence. • The effect of participants’ characteristics on the normal oral mucosal site FIR measurements. • The use the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) measurements to determine any differences between the lesion and the normal oral readings and whether the FIR from clinically suspicious oral lesions is associated with the histopathology grade. In addition to the sensitivity and specificity of the technique in assessing clinically suspicious (premalignant) oral lesions for potential malignant change.Prior to the trial commencing, approval were obtained from the Research Ethics Committee (REC), local NHS Research and Development (R&D), and Medicine Healthcare product Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and the University of Dundee Research Innovation Services (RIS). A total of thirty five participants with clinically suspicious oral lesions were recruited in Dundee (Dundee Dental Hospital) and Glasgow (Southern General Hospital). A Photodynamic Detection method using compact fluorescence spectroscopy and 5-ALA mouth rinse was applied. FIR measurements from ten normal anatomical sites were obtained in every patient to study the variation at different normal oral sites and the effect of the participant’s characteristics on these readings. In addition, two FIR measurements were obtained from each lesion and a further one taken from normal looking mucosa well beyond the lesion boundary (i.e. more than 5mm away) prior to biopsy. The readings were compared to study the reliability, reproducibility and efficacy of the photodynamic method in detecting mucosal abnormality. A total of 292 spectral readings obtained from normal mucosa were used to study the FIR measurements at normal oral anatomical sites. The results showed that the oral regions could be grouped into two broad categories with similar readings, the palatal and tongue readings in one group and buccal, ventral tongue, floor of the mouth, gingiva and lip mucosa on the other (essentially keratinized and non keratinized groups). The same set of readings were further analysed to study the effect of individual characteristics (age, gender, presence of oral prosthesis, metabolic diseases, smoking and alcohol consumptions) on the FIR measurements. There was no significant difference between FIR measurements within each of the groups studied, although at times sample sizes were very small.A total of 134 spectral readings obtained from 47 lesions that were biopsied from 35 patients recruited to the trial were used for the next part of the study. There were 91 spectra obtained from the lesions and 43 spectra obtained from the normal sites (more than 5mm away from the borders of the lesion) for comparison. There was a significant difference between the lesion and normal site readings. The FIR readings for the dysplastic lesions were significantly different when compared with the normal and benign hyperkeratoses. However there was no significant difference between dysplastic and inflammatory lesions (lichen planus, lichenoid lesions and candidal leukoplakia) on the one hand and inflammatory lesions and hyperkeratotic lesion on the other. Further analysis showed the sensitivity in detecting all the clinically suspicious oral lesions from the normal sites was 59.5% and specificity was 73.8%. The sensitivity in detecting dysplasia from normal sites was 100% and specificity 100%.Photodynamic Detection was able to detect a difference between the oral lesions from normal mucosa (but so is the naked eye!). However there was variation in the sensitivity and specificity in detecting a range of different pathological conditions. The technique was highly sensitive in detecting dysplasia from normal mucosa but unfortunately the technique is not able to discriminate reliably between dysplasia and inflammatory lesions whose clinical appearance can be very similar. In conclusion, the photodynamic detection method used in this study would not appear to offer a reliable screening tool for the early detection of oral dysplasia/cancer. The need to consider adjunctive tests that discriminate inflammation from dysplasia is required. Photodynamic Detection (PDD) is a diagnostic technique involving administration of a photosensitizer to the targeted cells that can be stimulated by short wavelength light which then leads to emission of light at a different wavelength (lower energy). The light emitted by the cells can be detected and analysed (by a spectroscope). All cells have the innate ability (due to endogenous fluorophores) to fluoresce, termed autofluorescence.

Abstract:
Expanding interests may be a behavioral cusp, resulting in widespread changes across skills, and therefore is particularly relevant in intervention programs for children with autism. Little research has addressed directly increasing the diversity of activities and interests for this population. This study describes a program developed to increase activities and interests in a girl dually-diagnosed with pervasive developmental disorder (PDD-NOS) and Downs syndrome (DS). A multiple-baseline design across stimuli was employed to evaluate the program. The results show that the program increased number of total and different toy interactions. No effects were observed for overall duration of toy interactions. Results are discussed in relation to play skill instruction and preference assessment literature, the cusp, and autism intervention programs.
