  • Autologous breast reconstruction utilizing a perforator flap is an increasingly popular method for reducing donor site morbidity and implant-related complications. However, aberrant anatomy not readily visible on computed tomography angiography is a rare albeit real risk when undergoing perforator flap reconstruction. We present an operative case of a patient who successfully underwent a bilateral breast reconstruction sourced from a unilateral abdominal flap divided into deep superior epigastric artery and superficial circumflex iliac artery flap segments.

  • An attempt to improve the method of volumetric determination of tungsten developed by Luke has been made successfully. Using amalgam coated lead instead of pure metallic lead in the reduction procedure. W(VI)-W(III) reduction has been found to be quantitative in rather concentrated hydrochloric acid. Since there was no excessive dissolution of lead via reduction of hydrogen ion, lead surface was totally accessible for the reduction of tungsten and no trouble was caused by dereposition of $PbCl_2$ crystals at the nozzle of Jones reductor. Furthermore, it has been confirmed that almost 100 mg. of $WO_3$ can be handled easily if the chloride concentration of the HCl is increased by adding solid $NH_4Cl$.

  • This paper proposes a framework for understanding the energy consumption differences between tall and low-rise buildings. Energy usage data from 706 office buildings in New York illustrates expected correlations from the framework. Notable correlations include: taller buildings tend to use more energy until a plateau at 30~39 floors; tall buildings in Manhattan use 20% more energy than low-rise buildings in Manhattan, while tall buildings outside Manhattan use 4% more energy than low-rise buildings outside Manhattan. Additional correlations are discussed, among which is the trend that the Energy Star program in New York City assigns higher ratings to tall buildings with higher EUIs than low-rise buildings with the same EUI. Since Energy Star is based on regressions of existing buildings, the Energy Star ratings suggest taller buildings have higher EUIs than shorter buildings, which is confirmed by the New York City energy benchmarking data.

  • A generation of tall buildings has been dominated by International Style with full height glazing that is often vision glass. Large glass was intended to bring the outside in, to allow a connection to the natural environment, and to promote daylighting. Yet the glass box model of architecture is now under criticism due to expense to build, thermal and visual comfort issues for occupants, large carbon footprints, danger for birds, and aesthetic concerns with lack of transparency. This paper will take a fresh look at glass, transparency, energy consumption, and human health before offering alternative paths forward.

  • This report describes two cases of complete arch implant-supported restorations. The first patient had seven dental implants in each arch with monolithic zirconia frameworks. At four weeks' follow-up, the one-piece maxillary framework was fractured, which was re-designed and re-fabricated using laser-sintered cobalt-chrome alloy. The second patient had four implants in the mandible only. A mandibular monolithic zirconia framework and a maxillary conventional complete denture were fabricated and delivered. At five years' follow-up, the patient reported no significant discomfort. Careful consideration and monitoring of the status of antagonistic arches and stress distribution on zirconia frameworks were suggested for complete arch implant-supported fixed restorations.

  • We present an ongoing study of the complete sample of supernova remnants (SNRs) and candidates in the Magellanic Clouds. 108 objects in both Clouds are considered to be either SNR or reliable candidates. This represents the most complete sample of all known SNRs in any galaxy. It therefore allows us to study SNR population properties such as the age-diameter (Age-D) relation. Here, we show that this Age-D relation is strongly dependant on the local environment in which SNRs are residing.

  • To promote the inclusion of quality of life (QOL) end-points In clinical research on cancer, the National Cancer Institute (USA) sponsored a workshop on QOL assessment In cancer clinical trials In July, 1990. Experts In clinical trials and QOL research formed four working groups to Identify current areas of cancer treatment In which QOL end-points are most Important; to discuss methodologic problems In QOL assessment; to address common problems In Implementing clinical studies with QOL end-points; and to consider statistical Issues In design, Implementation, and data analysis. Recommendations made by the working groups are summarized in this paper.

  • Metastases to the liver can be found in various malignancies, most commonly originating from the colon, rectum, pancreas, stomach, esophagus, breast, lung, and melanoma. Surgical resection of liver metastasis is generally considered to be the definitive therapy fore cure. However, many patients are unable to undergo surgical resection due to medical comorbidities or multifocal extent of malignant disease affecting the liver. Among patients not eligible for surgery, other therapies exist for treatment in order to down stage the disease for surgical resection or for palliation. Radioembolization of hepatic metastases has shown to improve outcomes among patients with variety of malignancies including more common malignancies such as colorectal cancer. Yttrium-90 (Y-90) radioembolization has been successfully used in the management of hepatic metastases. A small series of metastatic sarcoma to the liver treated with radioembolization showed a promising response. We report a case of metastatic gastric leiomyosarcoma to the liver treated with Y-90 glass microspheres therapy using the radiation segmentectomy approach, previously described for hepatocellular carcinoma.

  • Historically, the approach to any reconstructive challenge, whether intentionally or intuitively, can be seen to follow distinct guidelines that could aptly be called "reconstructive metaphors." These have been intended to inform us as to the "what, "when" and "where" this attempt can best be achieved. Yet the "how" or means to accomplish this goal, usually also intuitively well understood, in a similar vein can now be expressed to be within our "reconstructive toolbox." The latter will distinctly mirror our individuality and contain not only the various hardware that we deem essential, but also the means to access whatever technology we may be comfortable with. No toolbox, even if overflowing will ever be full, as potential options and the diversity they represent surely approaches infinity. But the truly excellent reconstructive surgeon will know when their toolbox is in any way lacking, and fears not remedying that deficiency even if the talents of another colleague must be sought, so as always to ensure that the patient will obtain the best appropriate treatment!

  • GMACS is one of the first light instruments for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). The development of GMACS control software follows Agile software development process, and the design of the software is based on the Unified Model Language (UML). In this poster, we present the architecture of the GMACS software and the development processes. As an example of the software development, we show the software of the Slit Mask Exchange Mechanism Prototype (SMEM-P) which is part of the GMACS Device Control Package (DCP).
