- Fifteen correlated α-decay chains starting from the odd-A superheavy nucleus 289Fl were observed following the fusion-evaporation reaction 48Ca+244Pu. The results call for at least two parallel α-decay sequences starting from at least two different states of 289Fl. This implies that close-lying levels in nuclei along these chains have quite different spin-parity assignments. Further, observed α-electron and α-photon coincidences, as well as the α-decay fine structure along the decay chains, suggest a change in the ground-state spin assignment between 285Cn and 281Ds. Our experimental results, on the excited level structure of the heaviest odd-N nuclei to date, provide a direct testing ground for theory. This is illustrated by comparison with new nuclear structure calculations based on the symmetry-conserving configuration mixing theory.

- Flerovium isotopes (element Z = 114) were produced in the fusion-evaporation reactions 48Ca+242,244Pu and studied with an upgraded TASISpec decay station placed in the focal plane of the gas-filled separator TASCA at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt, Germany. Twenty-nine flerovium decay chains were identified by means of correlated implantation, α decay, and spontaneous fission events. Data analysis aspects and statistical assessments, primarily based on measured rates of various events, which laid the foundation for the comprehensive spectroscopic information on the flerovium decay chains, are presented in detail. Various decay scenarios of an excited state observed in 282Cn are examined in depth with the help of GEANT4 simulations and assessed by predictions of beyond mean-field calculations including triaxial shape degrees of freedom. Previous, revised, and newly derived fission probabilities of even-even superheavy nuclei are compared with various theoretical predictions.

- Tumour infiltration by activated natural killer (A-NK) cells is a pre-requisite for tumour eradication by adoptive NK cell transfer. Extravasated A-NK cells do not always succeed in reaching the crucial target cell conjugation. Therefore, we wished to study A-NK cell locomotion and interactions with melanoma cells in a matrix environment (Matrigel) by electron, confocal and fluorescence microscopy. Two distinct patterns of A-NK cell-mediated matrix disintegration were revealed during incubation of tumour cells and A-NK cells in Matrigel: (1) A-NK cells pre-cultured for 5 days altered the homogeneous texture of the Matrigel, an initial microporous appearance became a loose filamentous meshwork by 24 h. Matrix degrading protease inhibitors could not fully prevent this, but could delay the process; and (2) A-NK cells pre-cultured for 6 days or more, instead formed large excavations in the Matrigel leaving the remaining matrix less affected compared to the effects by the younger A-NK cells. By histochemical staining with Cupromeronic Blue, the excavations were shown to contain proteoglycan material. Protease inhibitors had no discernable effect on the development of the excavations. The conspicuous capacity of A-NK cells to disintegrate extracellular matrix and the formation of large excavations seems only partially to depend on matrix-degrading proteases. Formation of extracellular proteoglycan material is suggested to facilitate A-NK cell locomotion within a matrix environment.

- BACKGROUND: WE AIM TO STUDY THE CLINICAL AND PROCEDURAL CHARACTERISTICS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGHER RADIATION EXPOSURE IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTIONS (PCIS) AND CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY.METHODS AND RESULTS: OUR PRESENT STUDY INCLUDED ALL CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY AND PCI PROCEDURES IN 5 PCI CENTERS IN THE WESTERN PART OF SWEDEN, BETWEEN JANUARY 1, 2008, AND JANUARY 19, 2012. THE RADIATION EXPOSURE AND CLINICAL DATA WERE COLLECTED PROSPECTIVELY IN THESE 5 PCI CENTERS IN SWEDEN AS PART OF THE SWEDISH CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY AND ANGIOPLASTY REGISTRY (SCAAR). A PREDICTION MODEL WAS MADE FOR THE RADIATION EXPOSURE (DOSEAREA PRODUCT) EXPRESSED IN GYCM(2). A TOTAL OF 20 669 PROCEDURES WERE INCLUDED IN THE PRESENT STUDY, CONSISTING OF 9850 PCI AND 10 819 CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY PROCEDURES. IN MULTIVARIABLE ANALYSES, BODY MASS INDEX (=1.04; CONFIDENCE INTERVAL [CI], 1.041.04; P0.001); HISTORY OF CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFT SURGERY (=1.32; CI, 1.281.32; P0.001); 2, 3, OR 4 TREATED LESIONS (2 TREATED LESIONS: =1.95; CI, 1.842.03; P0.001; 3 TREATED LESIONS: =2.34; CI, 2.162.53; P0.001; AND 4 TREATED LESIONS: =2.83; CI, 2.533.16; P0.001); AND CHRONIC TOTAL OCCLUSION LESIONS (=1.39; CI, 1.311.48; P0.001) WERE ASSOCIATED WITH THE HIGHEST RADIATION EXPOSURE. AFTER ADJUSTING FOR PROCEDURAL COMPLEXITY, RADIAL ACCESS ROUTE WAS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH INCREASED RADIATION EXPOSURE (=1.00; CI, 0.981.03; P=0.67).CONCLUSIONS: In the largest study population to assess radiation exposure, we found that high body mass index, history of coronary artery bypass graft surgery, number of treated lesions, and chronic total occlusions were associated with the highest patient radiation exposure. Radial access site was not associated with higher radiation exposure when compared with femoral approach.
