Begonia keralensis Pradeep, Sinj. Thomas & Britto and Begonia bachulkarii Aitawade, Kattuk. & S.R.Yadav were independently described recently from Nelliyampathy in Kerala, India, within two weeks of each other. The names are based on different types but represent the same taxon. Because Begonia bachulkarii is the earliest published name, Begonia keralensis is reduced to synonymy.

Objectives: This study aimed to histopathologically examine the cardioprotective effects of St. Thomas and del Nido (DN) cardioplegia. Materials and methods: A total of 18 rabbits aged 23 weeks and weighing 2000 g were included in the experimental animal study. The animals were randomized to three groups, with six rabbits in each group. The first group was determined as the control group and no cardioprotective agent was given after ligation of the aorta. The rabbits in the second group received DN cardioplegia solution, and those in the third group received the St. Thomas cardioplegia solutio

In a speech given to students at Grosse Pointe High School on March 14, 1968, just three weeks before his death, Martin Luther King addressed the uprisings that consumed America during this time. During the same time that King delivered this speech, plans were underway for a retreat that would have brought King together with the Trappist monk Thomas Merton. While we will never know what both men would have talked about or what they would have done, I do believe—at least in so far as King is concerned—that he would have undoubtedly spoken about his concept of the Beloved Community.

Abstract BACKGROUND Ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is the standard of care for adjuvant treatment of patients (pts) with HER2-positive early breast cancer (eBC) who have invasive residual disease after preoperative treatment with taxane and HER2-targeted therapy. However, a high unmet need remains in some higher risk subgroups (e.g., inoperable or lymph node-positive, hormone receptor-negative disease) who have 3-year invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) rates of 76%. Exploratory analyses suggest that addition of the programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor atezolizumab to T-DM1 results
