    Abstract Lacrimal sac tumours are rare tumours in ophthalmology but may have serious complications when misdiagnosed. Lacrimal sac tumours can be either epithelial or non epithelial tumours. Epithelial tumours account for 60-94% of tumours. Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium lines the lacrimal sac. Squamous cell carcinoma, transitional cell carcinoma, mucoepidermoid carcinoma, oncocytic adenocarcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma and metastasis are the commonly occurring epithelial tumours. Inverted papilloma is a locally aggressive tumour. Non epithelial tumours (25%) are rarer than the epithelial tumours. Lymphoproliferative, melanocytic, and mesenchymal tumours are the non epithelial tumours, among which the lymphoproliferative tumours constitute 2-8%. Very rarely Non Hodgkin’s lymphoma can occur as a primary in the lacrimal sac. Melanoma can occur as a primary from the melanocytes of the lining in the lacrimal sac or as a secondary from the conjuctival melanoma. Kaposi sarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma are the mesenchymal tumours. Here is a case of Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (NHL) occurring in the lacrimal sac in an 80-year-old male. The patient came with the chief complaint of swelling around the right eye since two months. On radiological examination, Computed Tomography (CT) revealed a homogenous solid mass in the right medial canthus, causing bony erosions of the orbit and extending into the nasolacrimal canal. An incisional biopsy of the mass was consistent with the diagnosis of Non Hodgkin’s lymphoma which was further confirmed by immunohistochemistry. This unusual presentation and histopathological features are described.

    Abstract Abstract Introduction Rosai–Dorfman disease is a rare disorder caused by benign proliferation of histiocytes and thus also called sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy. It is typically known to involve lymph nodes but can also affect extra nodal sites with breast involvement being extremely rare. This disease is known to mimic malignancy clinically and on imaging. The final verdict is through histopathological evaluation. Case presentation We present a case of a 21-year-old female who presented with a palpable suspicious lump in right breast. Ultrasound, mammogram and MRI breast were done followed by fine needle aspiration, which showed lymphocytes and occasional histiocytes, which is suggestive of a lymphoid process. Surgical excision was done due to high suspicion of low-grade angiosarcoma in spite of a negative cytology. Diagnosis of Rosai–Dorfman disease was concluded after histopathological evaluation and was further confirmed by immunohistochemical staining by immunohistochemical markers S-100 and CD68. Conclusion Rosai–Dorfman disease can present as low-grade angiosarcoma clinically as well as on imaging. There is a need for high level of suspicion to rule out benign mimics of malignancy to avoid radical surgery. Final diagnosis is by histopathology along with immunohistochemical staining.

    Abstract Palladium-catalyzed amination reactions using soluble organic bases have provided a solution to the many issues associated with heterogeneous reaction conditions. Still, homogeneous C-N cross-coupling approaches cannot yet employ bases as weak and economical as trialkylamines. Furthermore, organic base-mediated methods have not been developed for Ni(0/II) catalysis, despite some advantages of such systems over those employing Pd-based catalysts. We designed a new air-stable and easily prepared Ni(II) precatalyst bearing an electron-deficient bidentate phosphine ligand that enables the cross-coupling of aryl triflates with aryl amines using triethylamine (TEA) as base. The method is tolerant of sterically congested coupling partners, as well as those bearing base- and nucleophile-sensitive functional groups. With the aid of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we determined that the electron-deficient auxiliary ligands decrease both the p

    Abstract The oceanographic ecology of pelagic Sargassum, and the means by which these floating macroalgae thrive in the nutrient-poor waters of the open ocean, have been studied for decades. Beginning in 2011, the Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt (GASB) emerged, with Sargassum proliferating in the tropical Atlantic and Caribbean where it had not previously been abundant. Here we show that the nutritional status of Sargassum in the GASB is distinct, with higher nitrogen and phosphorus content than populations residing in its Sargasso Sea habitat. Moreover, we find that variations in arsenic content of Sargassum reflect phosphorus limitation, following a hyperbolic relationship predicted from Michaelis-Menten nutrient uptake kinetics. Although the sources of nutrients fueling the GASB are not yet clear, our results suggest that nitrogen and phosphorus content of Sargassum, together with its isotopic composition, can be used to identify those sources, whether they be atmospheric, oceanic, or riverine in origin.

    Abstract Crosslinking in polymer networks leads to intrinsic structural inhomogeneities that result in brittle materials. Replacing fixed covalent crosslinks with mobile ones in mechanically interlocked polymers (MIPs), such as in slide-ring networks (SRNs) in which interlocked crosslinks are formed when polymer chains are threaded through crosslinked rings, can lead to tougher, more robust networks. An alternative class of MIPs is the polycatenane network (PCN), in which the covalent crosslinks are replaced with interlocked rings that introduce the unusual catenane's mobility elements (elongation, rotation, and twisting) as connections between polymer chains. A slide-ring polycatenane network (SR-PCN), with doubly threaded rings embedded as crosslinks in a covalent network, combines the mobility features of both the SRNs and PCNs, where the catenated ring crosslinks can slide along the polymer backbone between the two limits of network bonding (covalent and interlocked). This work explores using a metal ion-templated doubly threaded pseudo[3]rotaxane (P3R) crosslinker, combined with a covalent crosslinker and a chain extender, to access such networks. A catalyst-free nitrile-oxide/alkyne cycloaddition polymerization was used to vary the ratio of P3R and covalent crosslinker to yield a series of SR-PCNs that vary in the amount of interlocked crosslinking units. Studies on their mechanical properties show that metal ions fix the rings in the network, leading to similar behavior as the covalent PEG gels. Removal of the metal ion frees the rings resulting in a high-frequency transition attributed to the additional relaxation of polymer chains through the catenated rings while also increasing the rate of poroelastic draining at longer timescales.

    Abstract Pluripotency, which is defined as a system not fixed as to its developmental potentialities, is typically associated with biology and stem cells. Inspired by this concept, we report synthetic polymers that act as a single "pluripotent" feedstock and can be differentiated into a range of materials that exhibit different mechanical properties, from hard and brittle to soft and extensible. To achieve this, we have exploited dynamic covalent networks that contain labile, dynamic thia-Michael bonds, whose extent of bonding can be thermally modulated and retained through tempering, akin to the process used in metallurgy. In addition, we show that the shape memory behavior of these materials can be tailored through tempering and that these materials can be patterned to spatially control mechanical properties.

    Abstract Mastocytosis is a heterogenous group of disorders characterised by clonal proliferation of mast cells accumulating in single or multiple organs in children or adults. Skin is the most common organ involved in children. It usually presents as a nodule or plaque, yellow to tan-brown in colour remaining asymptomatic or may become red and itchy on rubbing indicating Darier’s sign positivity which helps in clinical diagnosis of mastocytosis. This case is of a three-month-old baby who presented with solitary asymptomatic noduloplaque with negative Darier’s sign which was clinically suspected to be mastocytosis and was confirmed by histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
