- We review transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribution functions, their application to topical issues in high-energy physics phenomenology, and their theoretical connections with QCD resummation, evolution and factorization theorems. We illustrate the use of TMDs via examples of multi-scale problems in hadronic collisions. These include transverse momentum q(T) spectra of Higgs and vector bosons for low q(T), and azimuthal correlations in the production of multiple jets associated with heavy bosons at large jet masses. We discuss computational tools for TMDs, and present the application of a new tool, TMDLIB, to parton density fits and parameterizations.

- A dysregulated cortisol pattern has been found to be associated with systemic inflammatory activity in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 is involved in both inflammation and matrix degradation and considered a main contributor to coronary plaque rupture. In this study, we hypothesized that a dysfunctional cortisol response also involved a failure to regulate systemic MMP-9 levels in CAD patients. Total MMP-9, active MMP-9 and the endogenous inhibitor TIMP-1 were measured in 30 CAD patients and 30 healthy controls. Morning and evening cortisol was measured in repeated saliva samples. Patients had higher levels of total and active MMP-9 (both p andlt; 0.01) and increased 24-h cortisol output (p andlt; 0.05) characterized by higher levels of evening cortisol (p = 0.011). MMP-9 was associated with evening cortisol (p andlt; 0.001) independent of smoking and inflammatory markers. Compared with controls, patients also showed a blunted cortisol response to stress. After stress, the levels of MMP-9 became significantly reduced in controls whereas they remained unchanged in patients. The data indicate that MMP-9 is differently regulated in patients due to a dysfunctional hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and emphasize the role of MMP-9 as a possible link between stress and cardiovascular disease.
