1698, respectively). No statistically significant correlation between age at the time of diagnosis and expression of CEBPA (p=0.4314) or c-MYC (p=0.9524) was stated. There were no significant associations between relative CEBPA (p=0.4247) or c-MYC (p=0.4655) expression level and FAB subtype and mortality among the enrolled patients (p=0.5858 and p=0.8437, respectively). However, it was observed that c-MYC and RUNX1 expression levels were significantly positively correlated (rS=0.328, p=0.0411). Overall, AML pathogenesis involves a complex interaction among CEBPA, c-MYC and RUNX family genes. CyberKnife© Radiosurgery (CKRS) is a recognized treatment concept for CNS lesions in adults due to its high precision and efficacy beside a high patient comfort. However, scientific evidence for this treatment modality in pediatric patients is scarce. A dedicated registry was designed to document CyberKnife© procedures in children, aiming to test the hypothesis that it is safe and efficient for the treatment of CNS lesions. The CyberKnife© registry is designed as a retrospective and prospective multicenter observational study (German Clinical Trials Register ( https// ), DRKS-ID 00016973). Patient recruitment will be ongoing throughout a 5-year period and includes collection of demographic, treatment, clinical, and imaging data. Follow-up results will be monitored for 10 years. All data will be registered in a centralized electronic database at the Charité-Universitätsmedizin. The primary endpoint is stable disease for benign and vascular lesions at 5 years of follow-up and local tumor control for malign lesions at 1- and 2-year follow-up. Secondary endpoints are radiation toxicity, side effects, and neurocognitive development. The CyberKnife© registry intends to generate scientific evidence for all treatment- and outcome-related aspects in pediatric patients with treated CNS lesions. The registry may define safety and efficacy of CKRS in children and serve as a basis for future clinical trials, inter-methodological comparisons and changes of treatment algorithms.

In this paper we illustrate and compare two theories that offer embodied explanations of this role the WAT (words as social tools) and the LENS (language is an embodied neuroenhancement and scaffold) theories. WAT and LENS differ from other current proposals, because they connect the impact of the neurologically realized language system on our cognition to the ways in which language shapes our interaction with the physical and social environment. Examining these theories together, their tenets and supporting evidence, sharpens our understanding of each, but also contributes to a better understanding of the contribution that language might make to the acquisition, representation and use of abstract concepts. Here we focus on how language provides a source of inner grounding, especially metacognition and inner speech, and supports the flexibility of our thought. Overall, the paper outlines a promising research program focused on the importance of language to abstract concepts within the context of a flexible, multimodal, and multilevel conception of embodied cognition.Sudden insight is often observed during creative problem solving and studies have suggested that advertisements can likewise evoke an insight experience. To date, however, there is limited empirical evidence on whether advertisements can trigger ideational insight, and, if so, whether such insight plays a rol
