    Abstract Purpose: Evaluate the dosimetric impact of daily setup error and inter-fraction organ motion on the radiation treatment plan.
    Methods: Twelve patients undergoing definitive IMRT treatments for prostate cancer were evaluated. All patients underwent fiducial marker placement prior to treatment planning CT scan, and were treated to a dose of 8100cGy given in 45 fractions. We retrospectively created a plan for each treatment day that had a shift available. To calculate the dose the patient would have received with no setup correction, we mathematically 'negated' the shift by moving the isocenter in the opposite direction of the shift. The individualized daily plans were combined to generate an overall plan sum. The dose distribution from these uncorrected plans was compared to the actual treatment plans.
    Results: A total of 390 shifts were negated and their corresponding plans evaluated. The mean isocenter shift based on the location of the fiducial markers was 3.3±6.5mm to the right, 1.6±5.1mm posteriorly, and 1.0±5.0mm along the caudal direction. The mean D95 dose when setup error was corrected and uncorrected for the PTV8100 volume was 8089cGy and 7303cGy (p < 0.001) and for prostate volume was 8228cGy and 7844cGy (p < 0.002). The mean V95 values when setup error was corrected and uncorrected for the PTV8100 volume was 99.9% vs. 87.3% (p < 0.0001). At an individual level, the difference in D95 value approached 1200cGy for the prostate volume and 2000cGy for the PTV8100 volume. There was no statistically significant difference in the D35 parameter for the surrounding normal tissue except for the dose received by the right hip and the penile bulb.
    Conclusion: This work indicates that significant underdosing, approaching 2000cGy for the PTV8100 volume, can occur as a Result of inaccurate patient setup, and emphasizes the importance of accurate patient setup and target localization.

    Abstract Formation of the Cretaceous Caribbean plateau, including the komatiites of Gorgona, has been linked to the currently active Galápagos hotspot. We use Hf-Nd isotopes and trace element data to characterise both the Caribbean plateau and the Galápagos hotspot, and to investigate the relationship between them. Four geochemical components are identified in the Galápagos mantle plume: two 'enriched' components with epsilon-Hf and epsilon-Nd similar to enriched components observed in other mantle plumes, one moderately enriched component with high Nb/Y, and a fourth component which most likely represents depleted MORB source mantle. The Caribbean plateau basalt data form a linear array in Hf-Nd isotope space, consistent with mixing between two mantle components. Combined Hf-Nd-Pb-Sr-He isotope and trace element data from this study and the literature suggest that the more enriched Caribbean end member corresponds to one or both of the enriched components identified on Galápagos. Likewise, the depleted end member of the array is geochemically indistinguishable from MORB and corresponds to the depleted component of the Galápagos system. Enriched basalts from Gorgona partially overlap with the Caribbean plateau array in epsilon-Hf vs. epsilon-Nd, whereas depleted basalts, picrites and komatiites from Gorgona have a high epsilon-Hf for a given epsilon-Nd, defining a high-epsilon-Hf depleted end member that is not observed elsewhere within the Caribbean plateau sequences. This component is similar, however, in terms of Hf-Nd-Pb-He isotopes and trace elements to the depleted plume component recognised in basalts from Iceland and along the Reykjanes Ridge. We suggest that the Caribbean plateau represents the initial outpourings of the ancestral Galápagos plume. Absence of a moderately enriched, high Nb/Y component in the older Caribbean plateau (but found today on the island of Floreana) is either due to changing source compositions of the plume over its 90 Ma history, or is an artifact of limited sampling. The high-epsilon-Hf depleted component sampled by the Gorgona komatiites and depleted basalts is unique to Gorgona and is not found in the Caribbean plateau. This may be an indication of the scale of heterogeneity of the Caribbean plateau system; alternatively Gorgona may represent a separate oceanic plateau derived from a completely different Pacific plume, such as the Sala y Gomez.

    Abstract Herein, we report creation of methodology for one-pot synthesis of 2,3-O-acetyl-6-bromo-6-deoxy (2,3Ac-6Br) amylose with controlled degree of substitution of bromide (DS(Br)) followed by quantitative azide substitution as a route to branched polysaccharide derivatives. This methodology affords complete control of "tine" location, and strong control of degree of branching of comb-structured polymers. In this way, we achieved bromination strictly at C6 and esterification at the other hydroxy groups, where the DS(Br) at C6 was well-controlled by bromination/acylation conditions in the one-pot process. Azide displacement of all C6 bromides followed by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) click reaction with the small molecule tert-butyl propargyl ether (TBPE) demonstrated the potential to create such branched structures. This synthetic method has broad potential to generate well-defined polysaccharide-based comb-like structures, with a degree of structural control that is very unusual in polysaccharide chemistry.
