9%, P = .013) and presence of EGFR (+) mutations (66.7% vs 33.3%, P = .04). Survival analysis carried out in the whole population did not show any association of CD47 expression and survival outcome. However, in patients with EGFR (+) mutations, CD47 expression was associated with higher progression-free survival (PFS) (12.2 vs. 4.4 months, P = .032). When the survival analysis was performed according to CD47 levels (cut off value 150), both, PFS and overall survival (OS) were shortened in patients with a high expression of CD47 (10.7 vs. NR, P = .156) and (29.2 vs. NR months P = .023), respectively. CONCLUSIONS CD47 overexpression is not a prognostic factor for PFS and OS in NSCLC patients. However, the presence of EGFR mutations and high expression of CD47 were associated with shortened PFS and OS. Coexpression of these markers represents a potential biomarker and characterizes a therapeutic niche for lung cancer. © 2020 The Authors.

Addition of heteroaryl nucleophiles onto a simple, readily-accessible alkyl sulfinyl (IV) chloride allows formation of a trigonal bipyramidal sulfurane intermediate. Reductive elimination therefrom provides bis-heteroaryl products in a practical and efficient fashion. © 2020 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

In the current study, we investigated neural responses during social and nonsocial reward prediction errors in 22 adolescents with ASD (ages 12-17) and 20 typically developing control adolescents (ages 12-18). Participants performed a reward prediction error task using both social (i.e., faces) and nonsocial (i.e., objects) rewards during a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan. Reward prediction errors were defined in two ways (a) the signed prediction error, the difference between the experienced and expected reward; and (b) the thresholded unsigned prediction error, the difference between expected and unexpected outcomes regardless of magnitude. During social reward prediction errors, the ASD group demonstrated the following differences relative to the TD group (a) signed prediction error decreased activation in the right preclearning task. This study provides evidence that autism may involve different patterns of brain activation when learning about social information. © 2020 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Human-driven species annihilations loom as a major crisis. However the recovery of deer and wolf populations in many parts of the northern hemisphere has resulted in conflicts and controversies rather than in relief. Both species interact in complex ways with their environment, each other, and humans. We review these interactions in the context of the ecological and human costs and benefits associated with these species. We integrate scattered information to widen our perspective on the nature and perception of these costs and benefits and how they link to each other and ongoing controversies regarding how we manage deer and wolf populations. After revisiting the ecological roles deer and wolves play in contemporary ecosystems, we explore how they interact, directly and indirectly, with human groups including farmers, foresters, shepherds, and hunters. Interactions with deer and wolves generate various axes of tension, posing both ecological and sociological challenges. Resolving these tensions and conflicts heir intrinsic value. Shifts in human attitudes and cultural learning that are already occurring will reshape our ecological interactions with deer and wolves. © 2020 Cambridge Philosophical Society.Routine therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) during treatment with anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may increase treatment efficacy and cost-effectiveness, and reduce the risk of loss of response. The aim was to assess the current use of anti-TNF agent TDM, including trough concentration and anti-drug antibodies, amongst gastroenterology practitioners in New Zealand. A web-based survey was delivered to gastroenterologists and advanced trainees in New Zealand, identified by the New Zealand Society of Gastroenterology. The response rate was 36% (48/134). Adalimumab was the most common initial anti-TNF agent used (78%, infliximab 22%). Ninety-three percent of those who completed the survey used TDM, mainly in cases of non-response or loss or response. Most respondents (93% and 83% for adalimumab and infliximab, respectively) measured trough concentrations within 24 hours prior to the next administration. In patients in clinical remission but with endoscopic inflammation on anti-TNF agents, 72% would measure drug concentrations. In the presence of antidrug antibodies, 45% would add an immunomodulator in patients with active disease and 47% would add an immunomodulator in patients in remission. With low trough concentrations, 77% would make no changes if the patient was in remission, and 75% would increase the dose in case of active disease. TDM was routinely used amongst IBD gastroenterology clinicians who responded to this survey. However, interpretation of results and decision-making is variable, suggesting more guidance is required.

Thirteen English students with dyslexia (ED), 15 without (END) and 16 Polish students with dyslexia (PD) and 16 without (PND) participated. We found that dyslexic deficits and different phoneme-to-grapheme correspondence rules between Polish and English interfered with the accuracy and fluency of word and nonword decoding and word recognition. Whereas END scored higher than PD and PND in all reading measures, ED did not, despite a NL advantage. When compared with PND, ED performed equal in nonword decoding, which depends to a higher degree on phoneme-to-grapheme conversion rather than lexical access. When compared with PD, ED performed equally in nonword fluency, which is most likely a nonscript-dependant skill.
