<P>The aim of this study is to develop a new method to align the patient setup lasers in a radiation therapy treatment room and examine its validity and efficiency. The new laser alignment method is realized by a device composed of both a metallic base plate and a few acrylic transparent plates. Except one, every plate has either a crosshair line (CHL) or a single vertical line that is used for alignment. Two holders for radiochromic film insertion are prepared in the device to find a radiation isocenter. The right laser positions can be found optically by matching the shadows of all the CHLs in the gantry head and the device. The reproducibility, accuracy, and efficiency of laser alignment and the dependency on the position error of the light source were evaluated by comparing the means and the standard deviations of the measured laser positions. After the optical alignment of the lasers, the radiation isocenter was found by the gantry and collimator star shots, and then the lasers were translated parallel to the isocenter. In the laser position reproducibility test, the mean and standard deviation on the wall of treatment room were 32.3±0.93 mm for the new method whereas they were 33.4±1.49 mm for the conventional method. The mean alignment accuracy was 1.4 mm for the new method, and 2.1 mm for the conventional method on the walls. In the test of the dependency on the light source position error, the mean laser position was shifted just by a similar amount of the shift of the light source in the new method, but it was greatly magnified in the conventional method. In this study, a new laser alignment method was devised and evaluated successfully. The new method provided more accurate, more reproducible, and faster alignment of the lasers than the conventional method.</P><P>PACS numbers: 87.56.Fc, 87.53.Bn, 87.53.Kn, 87.53.Ly, 87.55.Gh</P>

<▼1><P>A new class of doubly-responsive block copolymers could be utilized as new delivery vehicles for cargo molecules such as insulin.</P></▼1><▼2><P>Organoboronic acid-containing polymers and block copolymers have recently attracted attention because of their ability to recognize important natural diol compounds such as saccharides and nucleotides under physiologically relevant conditions at neutral pH. In particular, polymers and block copolymers that are responsive toward multiple stimuli can be utilized to create smart delivery vehicles for use in applications in a complex environment. Here we report the monosaccharide-responsive polymers and block copolymers comprising styreneboroxole and oligo(ethylene glycol)-functionalized styrenes (OEG-STs) as repeating units. We have shown that homopolymers and copolymers of OEG-STs are thermally responsive by demonstrating that they possess the characteristic of tunable lower critical solution temperature (LCST) in water. When copolymerized with OEG-STs, styreneboroxole units function as a switch to change the solubility of the resulting polymers in aqueous solution by recognizing monosaccharides <I>via</I> the formation of boronate ester. By introducing the minimum number of monosaccharide-responsive styreneboroxole units onto the thermally responsive OEG-ST backbone, we demonstrated the monosaccharide-responsive behavior of the resulting copolymers and their amphiphilic block copolymers in aqueous solution at physiologically relevant pH and temperature. A strategy based on doubly responsive block copolymers reported here could be utilized as new delivery vehicles for cargo molecules such as insulin, due to their ability to function in an <I>in vivo</I> environment.</P></▼2>

Purpose: The purpose of this ethnographic study was to explore the experience of Setumin college students’ adaptation to the nursing education in South Korea from their perspectives. Methods: This study used focused ethnography as its guiding methodology. Individual interviews with six Setumin nursing students were conducted using semi-structured interview questions developed from literature review and a pilot interview. Leininger and McFarland’s four phases of ethnographic analysis method was used to analyze the interview data. Results: Six main themes emerged as meaningful aspects from the Setumin nursing students’ educational adaptation experience. Those were meaning of being a nurse, never be an easy one, feeling less of myself, difficulty in relationships with colleagues and faculty members, trying to be strong despite of all difficulties, and moving one step forward to achieve my dream. Conclusion: This study is the first study that explore Setumin nursing students’ meaningful aspects of adaptation to unique academic culture in nursing education from their own perspectives. Despite the multiple challenges of different socio-cultural backgrounds and learning barriers, Setumin nursing students in this study desired to be successful and were willing to try hard to make their dreams come true, by pursuing their nursing career in South Korea. Several recommendations for further research and academic strategies that could facilitate Setumin nursing students’ adaptation and learning outcomes were suggested.

Eclipse Scripting Application Programming Interface (ESAPI) was devised to enhance the efficiency in such treatment related workflows as contouring, treatment planning, plan quality measure, and data-mining by communicating with the treatment planning system (TPS). It is provided in the form of C# programming based toolbox, which could be modified to fit into the clinical applications. The Scripting program, however, does not offer all potential functionalities that the users intend to develop. The shortcomings can be overcome by combining the Scripting programming with user-executable program on Windows or Linux. The executed program has greater freedom in implementation, which could strengthen the ability and availability of the Scripting on the clinical applications. This work shows the use of the Scripting programming throughout the simple modification of the given toolbox. Besides, it presents the implementation of combining both Scripting and user-executed programming based on MATLAB, applied to automated dynamic MLC wedge and FIF treatment planning procedure for promoting the planning efficiency.

<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>A facile, scalable route to new nanocomposites that are based on carbon nanotubes/heteroatom‐doped carbon (CNT/HDC) core–sheath nanostructures is reported. These nanostructures were prepared by the adsorption of heteroatom‐containing ionic liquids on the walls of CNTs, followed by carbonization. The design of the CNT/HDC composite allows for combining the electrical conductivity of the CNTs with the catalytic activity of the heteroatom‐containing HDC sheath layers. The CNT/HDC nanostructures are highly active electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction and displayed one of the best performances among heteroatom‐doped nanocarbon catalysts in terms of half‐wave potential and kinetic current density. The four‐electron selectivity and the exchange current density of the CNT/HDC nanostructures are comparable with those of a Pt/C catalyst, and the CNT/HDC composites were superior to Pt/C in terms of long‐term durability and poison tolerance. Furthermore, an alkaline fuel cell that employs a CNT/HDC nanostructure as the cathode catalyst shows very high current and power densities, which sheds light on the practical applicability of these new nanocomposites.</P>

<P>Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have tumor initiation, self-renewal, metastasis and chemo-resistance properties in various tumors including colorectal cancer. Targeting of CSCs may be essential to prevent relapse of tumors after chemotherapy. Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signals are central regulators of cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. These pathways are related to colorectal tumorigenesis. This study focused on PI3K and mTOR pathways by inhibition which initiate differentiation of SW620 derived CSCs and investigated its effect on tumor progression. By using rapamycin, LY294002, and NVP-BEZ235, respectively, PI3K and mTOR signals were blocked independently or dually in colorectal CSCs. Colorectal CSCs gained their differentiation property and lost their stemness properties most significantly in dual-blocked CSCs. After treated with anti-cancer drug (paclitaxel) on the differentiated CSCs cell viability, self-renewal ability and differentiation status were analyzed. As a result dual-blocking group has most enhanced sensitivity for anti-cancer drug. Xenograft tumorigenesis assay by using immunodeficiency mice also shows that dual-inhibited group more effectively increased drug sensitivity and suppressed tumor growth compared to single-inhibited groups. Therefore it could have potent anti-cancer effects that dual-blocking of PI3K and mTOR induces differentiation and improves chemotherapeutic effects on SW620 human colorectal CSCs.</P>

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of a recurrent neural network (RNN)-based prediction algorithm to compensate for respiratory movement using an articulated robotic couch system. A prototype of a real-time respiratory motion compensation couch was built using an optical 3D motion tracking system and a six-degree-of-freedom-articulated robotic system. To compensate for the system latency from motion detection to re-positioning of the system, RNN and double exponential smoothing (ES2) prediction algorithms were applied. Three aspects of performance were evaluated, simulation and experiments for geometric and dosimetric evaluations, using data from three liver and three lung patients who underwent stereotactic body radiotherapy. Overall, the RNN algorithm showed better geometric and dosimetric results than the other approaches. In simulation tests, RNN showed 82% average improvement ratio, compared with non-predicted results. In the geometric evaluation, RNN only showed average FWHM broadening of 1.5 mm, compared with the static case. In the dosimetric evaluation, RNN showed average gamma passing rates of 97.4 ± 1.0%, 89.0 ± 2.4% under the 3%/3 mm, 2%/2 mm respectively. It may be technically feasible to use the RNN prediction algorithm to compensate for respiratory motion with an articulated robotic couch system. The RNN algorithm could be widely used for motion compensation in patients undergoing radiotherapy.
