Abstract
Searches for the lepton number violating K^{+}→π^{-}μ^{+}e^{+} decay and the lepton flavor violating K^{+}→π^{+}μ^{-}e^{+} and π^{0}→μ^{-}e^{+} decays are reported using data collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN in 2017-2018. No evidence for these decays is found and upper limits of the branching ratios are obtained at 90% confidence level: B(K^{+}→π^{-}μ^{+}e^{+})<4.2×10^{-11}, B(K^{+}→π^{+}μ^{-}e^{+})<6.6×10^{-11} and B(π^{0}→μ^{-}e^{+})<3.2×10^{-10}. These results improve by 1 order of magnitude over previous results for these decay modes.

Abstract
The specific heat behavior in bulk nanomaterials (NMs) obtained by adding nanoparticles to pure suspending media has attracted a lot interest in recent years. Controversial results about NMs specific heat (cp) have been reported in the literature, where nanoparticles (NPs) of different sizes and materials were suspended in solid and liquid salts at different concentrations and temperatures. However, a unified picture explaining the cp enhancements and diminutions by adding NPs to pure salts is still missing. In this work, we present a general theoretical thermostatic model aimed at describing the cp behavior in two-component ionic bulk nanomaterials containing NPs. The model, designed to work in the dilute regime, divides the NM in three regions: bulk suspending medium (SM), nanoparticles, and interface regions. It includes the effects of temperature, NP size, and NP concentration (mass fraction), allowing us to calculate cp variations with respect to the pure SM and the ideal NM (where NP and SM are assumed to not interact). We then use the model to interpret results of our classical molecular dynamics simulations, which we perform in the solid and liquid phases of NMs representative of three different classes, defined according to the atomic interactions at the interface. The analysis reveals nontrivial and competing effects influencing cp, such as system-dependent atomic rearrangements at the interface, vibrations of the NP as a whole and cp variations coming from the individual NP and SM specific heats. Our study contributes to the interpretation of past controversial results and helps in designing NMs with improved thermal properties, which is highly relevant for industrial applications in thermal energy storage and renewable energy production.

Abstract
The clinical interest in HER-2/neu is related to trastuzumab, a drug used to treat patients with invasive breast carcinoma overexpressing the HER-2/neu protein. It is very important to correctly identify those patients who may benefit from trastuzumab by accurate assessment of the HER-2/neu status. Of the various methods available, the Dako Herceptest for immunohistochemical assay is considered the most reliable to reach this goal. The aim of this study was to investigate within a group of Italian laboratories the reproducibility of the results of HER-2/neu assessment by means of the Dako scoring system on slides stained with the Herceptest kit. This study was also conceived as the continuation of one of our previous studies, which was similar in its aims but different in the classification criteria adopted. Our results show that, whereas the intra-observer reproducibility was generally satisfactory, the interobserver reproducibility was not. Moreover, our findings confirm that the two extreme classes (0 and 3+) are more easy to identify than the other two and that the Herceptest does not allow to discriminate optimally between scoring classes 2+ and 3+. These findings are relevant in clinical practice where the treatment choice is based on categories defined by this assay, suggesting the need of adopting educational programs and/or new reference materials to improve the assay performance.

Abstract
In this paper we present new results on upper limits for the search of Heavy Neutral Leptons (HNL) with data collected by NA48/2 (2003-2004), NA62-RK (2007) and NA62 (2015) CERN experiments. The data collected with different trigger configuration allow to search for both long and short living heavy neutrinos in the mass range below the kaon mass. In addition the status of the search for K+ → π+vv with the NA62 detector will be briefly presented.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is among the most common diseases and includes a group of pathological conditions that form a severity continuum from primary snoring (PS) to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). SDB presents a multifactorial etiology and in children, it is often linked to adenotonsillar hypertrophy, which may lead to an alteration of the breathing pattern. Therefore, several studies hinted at the existence of a correlation between SDB and the alteration of craniofacial growth. However, these studies concentrated on the most severe forms of SDB and little evidence still exists for the mildest form of SDB, namely PS. This preliminary study investigates the association between nasal airflow, measured through rhinomanometry, and cephalometric parameters in a sample of young children with PS. PATIENTS AND METHODS A sample of 30 children with habitual snoring aged between 5 and 8 years was selected by a SDB validated questionnaire at the Pediatric Allergology and Immunology Center of "Sapienza" University of Rome, Italy. To assess the degree of nasal obstruction, all children underwent anterior active rhinomanometry while nocturnal pulse oximetry and polysomnography were used to characterize the SDB. Cephalometric analysis was used to evaluate relevant orthodontic parameters associated to the sagittal and vertical craniofacial development and to the position of the hyoid bone. RESULTS We found a statistically significant association between the Frankfurt mandibular angle (FMA), which measures the total facial vertical divergence, and the severity of the airflow's obstruction (p = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS The present study supports the association between the level of nasal obstruction in children with PS and the alteration of cephalometric parameters associated with the vertical craniofacial growth, thus placing the evaluation of craniofacial parameters in the growth period in a privileged position to determine an early diagnosis of a possible insurgence of sleep disorders.

Abstract
AIM The goal of the Collaboration Spotting project is to create an automatic system to collect information about publications and patents related to a given technology, to identify the key players involved, and to highlight collaborations and related technologies. The collected information can be visualized in a web browser as interactive graphical maps showing in an intuitive way the players and their collaborations (Sociogram) and the relations among the technologies (Technogram). We propose to use the system to study technologies related to Dental Science. METHODS In order to create a Sociogram, we create a logical filter based on a set of keywords related to the technology under study. This filter is used to extract a list of publications from the Web of Science™ database. The list is validated by an expert in the technology and sent to CERN where it is inserted in the Collaboration Spotting database. Here, an automatic software system uses the data to generate the final maps. RESULTS We studied a set of recent technologies related to bone regeneration procedures of oro--maxillo--facial critical size defects, namely the use of Porous HydroxyApatite (HA) as a bone substitute alone (bone graft) or as a tridimensional support (scaffold) for insemination and differentiation ex--vivo of Mesenchymal Stem Cells. We produced the Sociograms for these technologies and the resulting maps are now accessible on--line. CONCLUSION The Collaboration Spotting system allows the automatic creation of interactive maps to show the current and historical state of research on a specific technology. These maps are an ideal tool both for researchers who want to assess the state--of--the--art in a given technology, and for research organizations who want to evaluate their contribution to the technological development in a given field. We demonstrated that the system can be used for Dental Science and produced the maps for an initial set of technologies in this field. We now plan to enlarge the set of mapped technologies in order to make the Collaboration Spotting system a useful reference tool for Dental Science research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Mutations in the SACS gene are commonly associated with autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS), a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive degeneration of the cerebellum and spinal cord tracts. The aim of this study was to identify the genetic cause of the disease in an Italian family with spastic paraplegia and peripheral neuropathy. METHODS Affected subjects were subjected to a comprehensive neurological examination including electromyography and brain magnetic resonance imaging. Genetic studies included exclusion of known disease genes, genome-wide linkage analysis using high density single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping and candidate gene sequencing. RESULTS Molecular analyses revealed a novel missense mutation in the SACS gene (c.11,104A>G) occurring in a homozygous state in patients and absent in 700 Italian control chromosomes. The mutation led to the amino acid substitution p.Thr3702Ala in the sacsin protein, in a possible protein-protein interaction site of UBE3A binding domain. CONCLUSION This study broadens the genetic spectrum of SACS mutations and expands the clinical ARSACS phenotype suggesting that the SACS gene can be considered in patients with non-canonical ARSACS clinical presentations.

Abstract
Severe early-onset epilepsy is due to a number of known causes, although a clear etiology is not identifiable in up to a third of all the cases. Pathogenic sequence variations in the ARX gene have been described almost exclusively in males, whereas heterozygous female relatives, such as mothers, sisters and even grandmothers have been largely reported as asymptomatic or mildly affected. To investigate the pathogenic role of ARX in refractory epilepsy of early onset even in females, we have screened the ARX sequence in a population of 50 female subjects affected with unexplained epileptic encephalopathy with onset in the first year of life. We report the identification of a novel truncating mutation of the coding region of the ARX gene in a girl with a structurally normal brain. Our findings confirm the role of ARX in the pathogenesis of early epilepsy and underline the importance of screening of the ARX gene in both male and female subjects with otherwise unexplained early onset epileptic encephalopathy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Triple negative breast carcinomas (TNT) are infiltrating breast carcinomas (BC) with negative oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PgR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) expression, and are associated with frequent BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations. The aim of the present study is to analyze the frequency and distribution of TNT in our population where a breast cancer screening program for women aged between 50 and 69 years is effective since 2001 with 85% accrual. METHODS We investigated the records of 2112 consecutive BC and 153 interval BC (i.e. BC detected in the screened negative women in the interval between screening rounds). Tumours with complete negative expression of ER, PgR and Her2 were considered TNT; tumours with negative ER and PgR status and faint Her2 expression (score 1) were considered as possible TNT (pTNT). RESULTS We identified 82 (3.8%) TNT and 20 (0.9%) pTNT in the series of 2112 consecutive BC and 7 TNT and 1 pTNT (5.2%) in the series of 153 interval BC. In the consecutive series, TNT/ pTNT were observed in 6.5% patients below 50 years and in 4.3% of patients above 50 years. A high proliferation rate (Ki-67 labelling > 36%) was observed in 87.8% of TNT (median labelling 56.3%) and in 60% of pTNT (median labelling 48.4%). CONCLUSIONS Since TNT/pTNT occurring in women < 50 years is a criterion for selecting patients whom genetic counselling and BRCA1 testing should be offered, our study is of help in foreseeing the workload of the Unit of Medical Genetics and the Laboratory of Molecular Pathology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autosomal dominant lateral temporal epilepsy (ADLTE) is characterized by focal seizures with auditory features or aphasia. Mutations in the LGI1 gene have been reported in up to 50% of ADLTE pedigrees. We report a family with temporal lobe epilepsy characterized by psychic symptoms associated with a novel LGI1 mutation. METHODS All participants were personally interviewed and underwent neurologic examination and video-EEG recordings. LGI1 exons were sequenced by standard methods. Mutant cDNA was transfected into human embryonic kidney 293 cells; both cell lysates and media were analyzed by Western blot. In silico modeling of the Lgi1 protein EPTP domain was carried out using the structure of WD repeat protein and manually refined. RESULTS Three affected family members were ascertained, 2 of whom had temporal epilepsy with psychic symptoms (déjà vu, fear) but no auditory or aphasic phenomena, while the third had complex partial seizures without any aura. In all patients, we found a novel LGI1 mutation, Arg407Cys, which did not hamper protein secretion in vitro. Mapping of the mutation on a 3-dimensional protein model showed that this mutation does not induce large structural rearrangements but could destabilize interactions of Lgi1 with target proteins. CONCLUSIONS The Arg407Cys is the first mutation with no effect on Lgi1 protein secretion. The uncommon, isolated psychic symptoms associated with it suggests that ADLTE encompasses a wider range of auras of temporal origin than hitherto reported.

Abstract
Background Ki67 labeling index (Ki67 LI), the percentage Ki67 immunoreactive cells, is a measure of tumor proliferation, with important clinical relevance in breast cancer, and it is extremely important to standardize its evaluation. Aim To test the efficacy of computer assisted image analysis (CAIA) applied to completely digitized slides and to assess its feasibility in routine practice and compare the results obtained using two different Ki67 monoclonal antibodies. Materials and methods 315 consecutive breast cancer routinely immunostained for Ki-67 (223 with SP6 and 92 with MM1 antibodies previously examined by an experienced pathologist, have been re-evaluated using Aperio Scanscope Xs. Results Mean human Ki67 LI values were 36%± 14.% and 28% ± 18% respectively for SP6 and MM1 antibodies; mean CAM Ki67 LI values were 31%± 19% and 22% ± 18% respectively for SP6 and MM1. Human and CAIA evaluation are statistically highly correlated (Pearson: 0.859, p<0.0001), although human LI are systematically higher. An interobserver variation study on CAIA performed on 84 cases showed that the correlation between the two evaluations was linear to an excellent degree. Discussion Our study shows that a) CAIA can be easily adopted in routine practice, b) human and CAIA Ki67 LI are highly correlated, although human LI are systematically higher, c) Ki67 LI using different evaluation methods and different antibodies shows important differences in cut-off values.

Abstract
This work focuses on the synthesis and characterization of a novel bioresorbable glass ceramic phosphate-based material (GC-ICEL). More specifically, its solubility in different aqueous media (water, Tris-HCl and acellular simulated body fluid) and the response of human stromal cells cultured on it were investigated. X-ray diffraction analysis showed the presence of two crystalline phases identified as Na(2)Mg(PO(4))(3) and Ca(2)P(2)O(7) and dissolution tests highlighted a preferential dissolution of the Na(2)Mg(PO(4))(3) phase and of the residual amorphous phase in all the chosen media. Soaking tests in simulated body fluid showed precipitation of a hydroxyapatite layer, demonstrating the bioactivity of GC-ICEL, which is partially due to the reported bioactivity of Ca(2)P(2)O(7). The effect of GC-ICEL on adhesion, proliferation and osteoblastic gene expression of human bone marrow-derived stromal cells was also studied. Combining molecular and biochemical analyses, it was found that bone marrow cell differentiation was stimulated over proliferation on GC-ICEL. Moreover, the expression of bone-related genes in cells cultured on GC-ICEL confirmed the bioactivity of this phosphate-based glass ceramic, which might have a stimulatory effect on osteogenesis.

Abstract #1075
Background: Screening mammography has increased the frequency of diagnosis of small (≤1 cm) invasive breast cancer (BC), for which the prognosis after locoregional therapy remains controversial.
 Patients and methods: We have performed a retrospective analysis of 882 patients with ≤1 cm BC and positive or negative-nodes, treated in our Institution from 1990 to 2005. Risks of axillary nodes involvement (ANI), relapse-free (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed according to: age, tumor size, histologic type and grading, ER and PgR status and MIB-1, HER-2 and p53 immuno histochemical expression.
 Results: Median age at diagnosis was 57 years (range: 20 - 86 years). Tumor size was: 71 Tmic (a single focus of invasive carcinoma ≤ 2 mm or up to 3 foci ≤1 mm in greatest dimensions, according to Silver and Tavassoli), 225 T1a (>2 -5 mm) and 586 T1b (>5–10 mm). ANI was found in 122 cases (13,8%): only 1 inT1mic (1,4%), 21 in T1a (9,3%) and 100 in T1b (17%). Tumor size, young age, poor differentiation and ductal histology were significantly associated with ANI (p=0.01). Local relapses were: 3 in Tmic pts(2 DCIS and 1 invasive), 13 in T1a, 22 in T1b. Distant metastases were: 1 in Tmic pts, 11 in T1a, 17 in T1b. At a median follow up of 92 months, RFS was 86,4% (Tmic: 86,8%, T1a: 86,2%; T1b: 86,2%). BC-specific mortality was 2% for T1mic, 3,3% for T1a, 3,8% for T1b accounting for an OS of 96,6%. Nodal involvement was the more relevant prognostic factor for survival, followed by young age, poor differentiation, high MIB-1 and p53.
 Conclusions: In pts with 1 cm or smaller Invasive Breast Carcinoma, the risk of ANI is low, but not negligible, particularly for T1b tumors. Furthermore, the prognosis of these pts is influenced by high histological grade and young age.

Abstract
11036 Background: Clinico-pathological patterns, management and outcomes of HR+ vs HR- have been evaluated in a retrospective study. Methods: A series of 2686 BC patients (pts), treated at our institution from 1988 to 2000 with known immunohistochemical receptor status was investigated. Correlation between HR status and tumour size (T), nodal status (N), grading (G), mib-1, HER-2 and p53 and was evaluated by χ square test. Statistical analysis was performed to test the interaction between HR status and Disease Free Survival (DFS) and with specific and overall survival, using the log-rank test. Results: Among 2686 patients, 467 HR- (17%) and 2219 (83%) HR+ (364 pre and 1855 postmenopausal) were observed, with 1586 ER+PgR+, 555 ER+PgR-, 78 ER-PgR+. Pts with positive HR status showed a statistically significant correlation with lower T, G, mib-1, HER-2 and p53 expression.Chemotherapy was administered to 681 HR+BC (31% ) and to 301 HR-BC (65%), according to stage, age, and G. Tamoxifen based endocrine therapy was administered to 1167 HR+BC (53%) (associated to chemotherapy in 428 and alone in 739 pts). At a median follow up of 108 months, 499 relapses occurred in HR+ (22%) , and 141 in HR- pts (30%), with a 5,10, 15y DFS of 83%,72%, 62% in HR+ and 72%,66%, 57% respectively in HR- pts. More frequent sites of relapse were soft tissue (46%) and bone (35%) in HR+ and soft tissue (50%) and visceral (30%) in HR- pts. Seven hundred sixty pts have died: 576 HR+ (26%) and 184 HR- (39%), with a 5, 10, 15y specific survival of 90%, 84%, 75% which was significantly superior to the 78%, 73%, 69% respectively of HR-. However, considering that 230 HR+ and 44 HR- pts died without relapse, the 5,10,15y overall survival was 90%, 75% 61% for HR+ and 78%, 67%, 60% respectively for HR-. It appears therefore that the specific survival advantage in early years in favour of HR+ is progressively reduced by non specific mortality in late years which results in similar 15 y OS rates among HR+ and HR- pts. Conclusions: Our series appear to confirm the relationship between HR+ status and other more favourable clinical-pathological features, although long term OS is not apparently affected. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mutations in GJB2 are the most common cause of non-syndromic autosomal recessive hearing impairment, ranging from mild to profound. Mutation analysis of this gene is widely available as a genetic diagnostic test. OBJECTIVE To assess a possible genotype-phenotype correlation for GJB2. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of audiometric data from people with hearing impairment, segregating two GJB2 mutations. SUBJECTS Two hundred and seventy seven unrelated patients with hearing impairment who were seen at the ENT departments of local and university hospitals from Italy, Belgium, Spain, and the United States, and who harboured bi-allelic GJB2 mutations. RESULTS We found that 35delG homozygotes have significantly more hearing impairment, compared with 35delG/non-35delG compound heterozygotes. People with two non-35delG mutations have even less hearing impairment. We observed a similar gradient of hearing impairment when we categorised mutations as inactivating (that is, stop mutations or frame shifts) or non-inactivating (that is, missense mutations). We demonstrated that certain mutation combinations (including the combination of 35delG with the missense mutations L90P, V37I, or the splice-site mutation IVS1+1G>A, and the V37I/V37I genotype) are associated with significantly less hearing impairment compared with 35delG homozygous genotypes. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first large systematic analysis indicating that the GJB2 genotype has a major impact on the degree of hearing impairment, and identifying mild genotypes. Furthermore, this study shows that it will be possible to refine this correlation and extend it to additional genotypes. These data will be useful in evaluating habilitation options for people with GJB2 related deafness.

A search of the exclusive radiative decays B-->rho(770)gamma and B0-->omega(782)gamma is performed on a sample of about 84x10(6) BBmacr; events collected by the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- storage ring. No significant signal is seen in any of the channels. We set upper limits on the branching fractions B of B(B0-->rho(0)gamma)<1.2 x 10(-6), B(B+-->rho+gamma)<2.1 x 10(-6), and B(B0-->omegagamma)<1.0 x 10(-6) at 90% confidence level (C.L.). Using the assumption that Gamma(B-->rhogamma)=Gamma(B+-->rho(+)gamma)=2 x Gamma(B0-->rho(0)gamma), we find the combined limit B(B-->rhogamma)<1.9 x 10(-6), corresponding to B(B-->rhogamma)/B(B-->K*gamma)<0.047 at 90% C.L.

Abstract
Quantitative analysis of biopsy specimens of the testis represents the most direct indicator of spermatogenic function, whereas conventional microscopical procedures are open to subjective interpretation. In this study, the quantification of germ cell lines by means of flow cytometry was investigated and the results compared to histological findings. We studied 23 infertile men with azoospermia or oligospermia. The percentage of haploid-A, diploid –-D, tetraploid-T compartments was determined for each patient. Spermatogenesis was considered normal, decreased or in complete maturation arrest when histograms showed A>D>T, D>A>T or D>T>A patterns respectively. Comparing histograms and histological findings, excellent correlation was found in cases displaying absence of aploid cells, while 3 out 7 histograms showing hypospermatogenesis corresponded to normal spermatogenesis on biopsy specimens. Additionally, one case with complete maturation arrest histogram showed hypospermatogenesis on histologic sample. DNA flow cytometry provides a rapid and objective assessment of spermatogenesis in the investigation of male infertility. Importantly, this procedure might also be performed on aspiration biopsy, avoiding the costs and complications of surgery.

Abstract
We present results of a search for D0-D(-)0 mixing and a measurement of R(D), the ratio of doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays to Cabibbo-favored decays, using D0-->K+pi- decays from 57.1 fb(-1) of data collected near sqrt[s]=10.6 GeV with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider. At the 95% confidence level, allowing for CP violation, we find the mixing parameters x('2)<0.0022 and -0.056<y(')<0.039, and the mixing rate R(M)<0.16%. In the limit of no mixing, R(D)=[0.357+/-0.022(stat)+/-0.027(syst)]% and the CP-violating asymmetry A(D)=0.095+/-0.061(stat)+/-0.083(syst).

Abstract
We present measurements of the branching fractions of the decays B+-->eta'K+ and B0-->eta'K0. For B0-->eta(')K(0)(S) we also measure the time-dependent CP-violation parameters S eta'(K(0)(S)) and C eta'(K(0)(S)), and for B+-->eta'K+ the time-integrated charge asymmetry A(ch). The data sample corresponds to 88.9 x 10(6) BB pairs produced by e(+)e(-) annihilation at the Upsilon(4S). The results are B(B+-->eta'K+)=(76.9+/-3.5+/-4.4) x 10(-6), B(B0-->eta'K0)=(60.6+/-5.6+/-4.6) x 10(-6), S eta'(K(0)(S))=0.02+/-0.34+/-0.03, C eta'(K(0)(S))=0.10+/-0.22+/-0.04, and A(ch)=0.037+/-0.045+/-0.011.

Abstract
We report a study of the B meson decays, B+ --> J/psiphiK+, B0 --> J/psiphiK(0)(S), B0 --> J/psiphi, B0 --> J/psieta, and B0 --> J/psieta' using 56 x 10(6) B(-)B events collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e(+)e(-) asymmetric-energy storage ring. We measure the branching fractions B(B+ --> J/psiphiK+)=(4.4+/-1.4(stat)+/-0.5(syst))x 10(-5) and B(B0 --> J/psiphiK(0)(S))=(5.1+/-1.9(stat)+/-0.5(syst))x 10(-5), and set upper limits at 90% confidence level for the branching fractions B(B0 --> J/psiphi)<9.2 x 10(-6), B(B0 --> J/psieta)<2.7 x 10(-5), and B(B0 --> J/psieta')<6.3 x 10(-5).

Abstract
We present the first study of the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry in B0-->J/psi pi(0) decays using e(+)e(-) annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector at the Upsilon(4S) resonance during the years 1999-2002 at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. Using approximately 88 x 10(6) BB; pairs, our results for the coefficients of the cosine and sine terms of the CP asymmetry are C(J/psi pi(0))=0.38+/-0.41(stat)+/-0.09(syst) and S(J/psi pi(0))=0.05+/-0.49(stat)+/-0.16(syst).

Abstract
We present measurements of branching fractions and charge asymmetries for charmless B-meson decays to three-body final states of charged pions and kaons. The analysis uses 81.8 fb(-1) of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric B Factory. We measure the branching fractions B(B+-->pi(+)pi(-)pi(+))=(10.9+/-3.3+/-1.6)x10(-6), B(B+-->K+pi(-)pi(+))=(59.1+/-3.8+/-3.2)x10(-6), and B(B+-->K+K-K+)=(29.6+/-2.1+/-1.6)x10(-6) and provide 90% C.L. upper limits for other decays. We observe no charge asymmetries for these modes.

Abstract
We present results for the branching fractions and charge asymmetries in B+/--->h(+/-)pi(0) (where h(+/-)=pi(+/-),K+/-) and a search for the decay B0-->pi(0)pi(0) using a sample of approximately 88 x 10(6) BBmacr; pairs collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. We measure B(B+/--->pi(+/-)pi(0))=(5.5(+1.0)(-0.9)+/-0.6)x10(-6), where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. The B+/--->pi(+/-)pi(0) signal has a significance of 7.7sigma including systematic uncertainties. We simultaneously measure the K+/-pi(0) branching fraction to be B(B+/--->K+/-pi(0))=(12.8(+1.2)(-1.1)+/-1.0)x10(-6). The charge asymmetries are Api(+/-)(pi(0))=-0.03(+0.18)(-0.17)+/-0.02 and AK+/-(pi(0))=-0.09+/-0.09+/-0.01. We place a 90% confidence-level upper limit on the branching fraction B(B0-->pi(0)pi(0)) of 3.6 x 10(-6).

Abstract
We have performed a search for the decays B+-->J/psip(-)Lambda; and search for B0-->J/psip(-)p. in a data set of (88.9+/-1.0) x 10(6) Upsilon(4S) decays collected by the BABAR experiment at the PEP-II e(+)e(-) storage ring at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Four charged B candidates have been observed with an expected background of 0.21+/-0.14 events. The corresponding branching fraction is (12(+9)(-6)) x 10(-6), where statistical and systematic uncertainties have been combined. The result can be interpreted as a 90% confidence level (C.L.) upper limit of 26 x 10(-6). We also find one B0 candidate, with an expected background of 0.64+/-0.17 events, implying a 90% C.L. upper limit of 1.9 x 10(-6).

Abstract
We present measurements of the branching fraction and CP-violating asymmetries for neutral B decays to D(*+/-)D-/+. The measurement uses a data sample of approximately 88x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-->BBmacr; decays collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy e(+)-e(-) collider. By fully reconstructing the D(*+/-)D-/+ decay products, we measure the branching fraction to be (8.8+/-1.0+/-1.3)x10(-4) and the time-integrated CP-violating asymmetry between the rates to D(*-)D+ and D(*+)D- to be A=-0.03+/-0.11+/-0.05. We also measure the time-dependent CP-violating asymmetry parameters to be S(-+)=-0.24+/-0.69+/-0.12, C(-+)=-0.22+/-0.37+/-0.10 for B-->D(*-)D+ and S(+-)=-0.82+/-0.75+/-0.14, C(+-)=-0.47+/-0.40+/-0.12 for B-->D(*+)D-. In each case, the first error is statistical and the second error is systematic.

Abstract
We present a measurement of the branching fraction for the rare decays B-->rhoenu and extract a value for the magnitude of V(ub), one of the smallest elements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark-mixing matrix. The results are given for five different calculations of form factors used to para-metrize the hadronic current in semileptonic decays. Using a sample of 55 x 10(6) BB meson pairs recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e(+)e(-) storage ring, we obtain B(B0-->rho(-)e(+)nu)=(3.29+/-0.42+/-0.47+/-0.55) x 10(-4) and |V(ub)|=(3.64+/-0.22+/-0.25(+0.39)(-0.56)) x 10(-3), where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and theoretical, respectively.

Abstract
We report evidence for the decays B0-->D(+)(s)pi(-) and B0-->D(-)(s)K+ and the results of a search for B0-->D(*+)(s)pi(-) and B0-->D(*-)(s)K+ in a sample of 84 x 10(6) upsilon(4S) decays into BB pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) storage ring. We measure the branching fractions B(B0-->D(+)(s)pi(-))=[3.2+/-0.9(stat)+/-1.0(syst)] x 10(-5) and B(B0-->D(-)(s)K+)=[3.2+/-1.0(stat)+/-1.0(syst)] x 10(-5). We also set 90% C.L. limits B(B0-->D(*+)(s)pi(-))<4.1 x 10(-5) and B(B0-->D(*-)(s)K+)<2.5 x 10(-5).

Abstract
We present a measurement of the branching fraction for the decay of the neutral B meson into the final state J/psipi(+)pi(-). The data set contains approximately 56 x 10(6) BB pairs produced at the Upsilon(4S) resonance and recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) storage ring. The result of this analysis is B(B0-->J/psipi(+)pi(-))=(4.6+/-0.7+/-0.6) x 10(-5), where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. In addition, we measure B(B0-->J/psirho(0))=(1.6+/-0.6+/-0.4) x 10(-5).

Abstract
We present measurements of branching fractions and CP-violating asymmetries for two-body neutral B meson decays to charged pions and kaons based on a sample of about 88x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-->BB decays. From a time-independent fit we measure the charge-averaged branching fractions B(B0-->pi+pi-)=(4.7+/-0.6+/-0.2)x10(-6), B(B0-->K+pi-)=(17.9+/-0.9+/-0.7)x10(-6), and the direct CP-violating charge asymmetry A(Kpi)=-0.102+/-0.050+/-0.016 [-0.188,-0.016], where the ranges in square brackets indicate the 90% confidence intervals. From a time-dependent fit we measure the B0-->pi+pi- CP-violating parameters S(pipi)=0.02+/-0.34+/-0.05 [-0.54,+0.58] and C(pipi)=-0.30+/-0.25+/-0.04 [-0.72,+0.12].

Abstract
We present results on time-dependent CP asymmetries in neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates. The measurements use a data sample of about 88 x 10(6) Upsilon(4S)-->B(-)B decays collected between 1999 and 2002 with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC. We study events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a final state containing a charmonium meson and the other B meson is determined to be either a B(0) or B(-0) from its decay products. The amplitude of the CP asymmetry, which in the standard model is proportional to sin2beta, is derived from the decay-time distributions in such events. We measure sin2beta=0.741+/-0.067(stat)+/-0.034(syst) and |lambda|=0.948+/-0.051(stat)+/-0.030(syst). The magnitude of lambda is consistent with unity, in agreement with the standard model expectation of no direct CP violation in these modes.

Abstract
The branching fractions of the exclusive decays B0-->K(*0)gamma and B+-->K(*+)gamma are measured from a sample of (22.74+/-0.36)x10(6) BB decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric e(+)e(-) collider. We find B (B0-->K(*0)gamma) = [4.23+/-0.40(stat)+/-0.22(syst)]x10(-5), B(B+-->K(*+)gamma) = [3.83+/-0.62(stat)+/-0.22(syst)]x10(-5) and constrain the CP-violating charge asymmetry to be -0.170<A(CP)(B-->K(*)gamma)<0.082 at 90% C.L.

Abstract
We present a limit on the branching fraction for the decay B0-->gammagamma using data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric energy e+e- collider. Based on the observation of one event in the signal region, out of a sample of 21.3x10(6) e+e--->Upsilon(4S)-->BB decays, we establish an upper limit on the branching fraction of B(B0-->gammagamma)<1.7x10(-6) at the 90% confidence level. This result substantially improves upon existing limits.

Abstract
We present a measurement of the decay amplitudes in B-->J/psiK*(892) channels using 20.7 fb(-1) of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at PEP-II. We measure a P-wave fraction R(perpendicular) = (16.0 +/- 3.2 +/- 1.4)% and a longitudinal polarization fraction (59.7 +/- 2.8 +/- 2.4)%. The measurement of a relative phase that is neither 0 nor pi, phi = 2.50 +/- 0.20 +/-0.08 radians, favors a departure from the factorization hypothesis. Although the decay B-->/psiK(pi) proceeds mainly via K*(892), there is also evidence for K2*(1430) and K(pi) S-wave contributions.

Abstract
We present the results of searches for B decays to charmless two-body final states containing eta(') or omega mesons, based on 20.7 fb(-1) of data collected with the BABAR detector. We find the branching fractions Beta(B(+)-->eta(')K(+)) = (70+/-8+/-5) x 10(-6), Beta(B(0)-->eta(')K(0)) = (42(+13)(-11) +/- 4) x 10(-6), and Beta(B(+)-->omega pi(+)) = (6.6(+2.1)(-1.8) +/- 0.7) x 10(-6), where the first error quoted is statistical and the second is systematic. We give measurements of four additional modes for which the 90% confidence level upper limits are Beta(B(+)-->eta(')pi(+)) < 12 x 10(-6), Beta(B(+)-->omega K(+)) < 4 x 10(-6), Beta(B(0)-->omega K(0)) < 13 x 10(-6), and Beta(B(0)-->omega pi(0)) < 3 x 10(-6).

Abstract
The B(0) and B(+) meson lifetimes have been measured in e(+)e(-) annihilation data collected in 1999 and 2000 with the BABAR detector at center-of-mass energies near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. Events are selected in which one B meson is fully reconstructed in a hadronic final state while the second B meson is reconstructed inclusively. A combined fit to the B(0) and the B(+) decay time difference distributions yields tau(B(0)) = 1.546+/-0.032(stat)+/-0.022(syst) ps, tau(B(+)) = 1.673+/-0.032(stat)+/-0.023(syst) ps, and tau(B(+))/tau(B(0)) = 1.082+/-0.026(stat)+/-0.012(syst).

Abstract
PURPOSE Prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is assessed by using indexes based on clinical and instrumental parameters. The Cancer of the Liver Italian Program (CLIP) staging system combines the Child-Pugh classification with tumor size, portal invasion, and alpha-fetoprotein and predicts the outcome of HCC patients more precisely than the Okuda staging system. Serum levels of a number of biological variables have been found to be increased in patients with HCC and are associated with different outcomes. Our aims in this study were to test the prognostic role of the serum levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and anti-p53 and to assess whether the addition of any of the above serum markers could further improve the predictive ability of the CLIP score. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Serum levels of sICAM-1, sIL-2R, IL-6, and anti-p53 were assayed in 80 patients with HCC and correlated with their outcomes. Nonparametric procedures were applied to test correlations between serum sICAM-1, sIL-2R, IL-6, anti-p53, and other prognostic factors. For survival analyses, the product-limit method, log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards model were applied. RESULTS Only serum levels of sIL-2R correlated with survival, which was longer for patients with lower values (< or =950 units/ml). However, with multivariate analysis sIL-2R did not confirm its predictive role when tested with the CLIP score as a covariate, with a hazard of death of 1.51 (95% confidence interval, 0.76-3.01). CONCLUSIONS Serum levels of sICAM-1, sIL-2R, IL-6, and anti-p53 are not useful as prognostic factors for HCC in clinical practice. They do not improve the predictive ability of the CLIP score.

Abstract
The production of J/psi mesons in continuum e(+)e(-) annihilations has been studied with the BABAR detector at energies near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. The mesons are distinguished from J/psi production in B decays through their center-of-mass momentum and energy. We measure the cross section e(+)e(-)-->J/psi X to be 2.52+/-0.21+/-0.21 pb. We set a 90% C.L. upper limit on the branching fraction for direct Upsilon(4S)-->J/psi X decays at 4.7 x 10(-4).

Abstract
We have observed the decays B--> phiK and phiK(*) in a sample of over 45 million B mesons collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider. The measured branching fractions are B(B+--> phiK+) = (7.7(+1.6)(-1.4)+/-0.8)x10(-6), B(B0--> phiK0) = (8.1(+3.1)(-2.5)+/-0.8)x10(-6), B(B+--> phiK(*+)) = (9.7(+4.2)(-3.4)+/-1.7)x10(-6), and B(B0--> phiK(*0)) = (8.7(+2.5)(-2.1)+/-1.1)x10(-6). We also report the upper limit B(B+--> phipi(+))<1.4x10(-6) ( 90% C.L.).

Abstract
We present measurements, based on a sample of approximately 23x10(6) BB pairs, of the branching fractions and a search for CP-violating charge asymmetries in charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into two-body final states of kaons and pions. We find the branching fractions B(B0-->pi(+)pi(-)) = (4.1+/-1.0+/-0.7)x10(-6), B(B0-->K+pi(-)) = (16.7+/-1.6+/-1.3)x10(-6), B(B+-->K+pi(0)) = (10.8(+2.1)(-1.9)+/-1.0)x10(-6), B(B+-->K0pi(+)) = (18.2(+3.3)(-3.0)+/-2.0)x10(-6), B(B0-->K0pi(0)) = (8.2(+3.1)(-2.7)+/-1.2)x10(-6). We also report 90% confidence level upper limits for B meson decays to the pi(+)pi(0), K+K-, and K0K+ final states. In addition, charge asymmetries have been found to be consistent with zero, where the statistical precision is in the range of +/-0.10 to +/-0.18, depending on the decay mode.

Abstract
We present an updated measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. This result uses an additional sample of Upsilon(4S) decays collected in 2001, bringing the data available to 32 x 10(6) BB macro pairs. We select events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a final state containing charmonium and the flavor of the other neutral B meson is determined from its decay products. The amplitude of the CP-violating asymmetry, which in the standard model is proportional to sin2 beta, is derived from the decay time distributions in such events. The result sin2 beta = 0.59+/-0.14(stat)+/-0.05(syst) establishes CP violation in the B(0) meson system. We also determine absolute value of lambda = 0.93+/-0.09(stat)+/-0.03(syst), consistent with no direct CP violation.

Abstract
We present measurements of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in neutral B decays to several CP eigenstates. The measurement uses a data sample of 23x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-->BbarB decays collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC. In this sample, we find events in which one neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in a CP eigenstate containing charmonium and the flavor of the other neutral B meson is determined from its decay products. The amplitude of the CP-violating asymmetry, which in the standard model is proportional to sin2beta, is derived from the decay time distributions in such events. The result is sin2beta = 0.34+/-0.20 (stat)+/-0.05 (syst).
