Pulmonary lipogranulomatosis due to excessive consumption of apples
A 55-year-old man was admitted for treatment of unstable angina. Chest x-ray films showed a micronodular pattern, but there were no respiratory symptoms. Autopsy, carried out following sudden death, revealed pulmonary granulomas surrounding lipid crystals. The same crystals were found elsewhere: lymph nodes, spleen, liver, adrenal glands, and were composed of aliphatic hydrocarbons of vegetal origin, mainly C29H60. Investigation of the case history revealed excessive consumption of apples, to which the hydrocarbon deposition could be attributed, since C29H60 is a natural constituent of the cuticular wax in apple peel. This is a unique example of pulmonary granulomatosis due to storage of vegetal hydrocarbons of dietary origin.

Vulture Funds in the Sovereign Debt Context
An auxiliary market for obligation is a principal element of sovereign acquiring and loaning. At the point when loan bosses can uninhibitedly sell the obligation they hang on the optional market, there is less danger implied in loaning to sovereigns, and lenders are in this manner bound to give the capital sovereigns need.
In late many years, as the optional market for obligation has grown, new players have emerged, driving some to address whether the "tradable obligation model" for sovereign obligation is suitable. One bunch of such players is classified "vulture reserves" - the term given to elements that buy bothered obligation on the optional market, where it exchanges essentially underneath its presumptive worth, and afterward look to recuperate everything, frequently through suit. These die-hard banks can prosecute on the grounds that most obligation alleviation drives, for example, that for HIPCs don't adjust the legitimate rights and commitments among HIPCs and their outside lenders. Likewise, until the HIPC debt holders and their leasers agree in accordance with the HIPC drive, lenders are legitimately qualified for utilize accessible lawful instruments to authorize their credit claims against HIPCs. In certain examples, preceding choice point some HIPCs have settled up on business banks completely either in light of the suit or the danger of case, a longing to try not to upset a business relationship, or the dread of losing useful resources in situations where business obligation was gotten by guarantee.
Vulture subsidizes purchase obligation frequently at profound limits with the goal of suing the borrower for full recuperation. Vulture reserves have found the middle value of recuperation paces of around 3 to multiple times their venture, comparable to returns of (net lawful expenses) 300%-2000%. The vulture reserve usual way of doing things is basic: buy troubled obligation at profound limits, decline to take part in rebuilding, and seek after full worth of the obligation regularly at face esteem in addition to intrigue, back payments and punishments through case, if essential. The vulture finances granulate down helpless nations in patterns of case, a training alluded to as "champerty" and to a great extent obscure in African general sets of laws. Suit is ordinarily extended with numerous claims taking three to ten years to "settle." Legal records demonstrate six years as a traditionalist medium gauge for recuperation, which proposes that annualized restores normal 50 to 333 percent. A portion of these cases were purchased at approximately 10% of presumptive worth, inferring extremely high gross recuperation rates. Deducting legitimate expenses, regularly recovered from the sovereign, these recuperation rates are likely the most elevated in the bothered obligation market.
A readiness and capacity to seek after case seems key to the procedure and achievement of the vulture reserves. In one late argument against Zambia, a vulture reserve, having purchased an obligation for US$3 million, sued Zambia for US$55 million and was granted US$ 15.5 million. The vulture reserves apply tension on the sovereign indebted person by endeavoring to get connection of the public authority's resources abroad. Such procedures are consistently difficult to the indebted individuals concerned, and can confound monetary and save the executives. By blocking obligation help and costing millions in lawful costs, these vulture reserves subvert the advancement of the most weak RMCs.
The IMF reports the sums asserted by Vulture Funds address a critical piece of the significant public total national output (GDP). The IMF reports that eleven HIPCs have been designated so far in 46 claims and that the litigators (offended parties) are packed in three nations. The claims are amassed in a couple of courts. A few claims are supposedly likewise in HIPCs.
For the most part, these vulture reserves have won their claims. 25 decisions for vulture reserves so far have yielded almost US$1 billion. Out of this sum 72% of the decisions have been against RMCs. Fundamentally, the announced number of remarkable bodies of evidence against debt holder nations has multiplied since 2004. On normal eight new cases are recorded every year. This figure incorporates claims recorded in year 2006 and part of 2007. It is expected that the achievement pace of past suit would produce considerably more claims against HIPCs. Something like three RMCs in particular Liberia, Cote d'Ivoire, and Sudan have enormous business loan boss cases that are probably going to be raised against these nations, despite the fact that it isn't yet clear who holds the different cases.
Prosecution is expensive for these debt holder nations and diverts monetary and different specialists from significant approach issues. These claims undermine the center targets of the HIPC drive. The claims adequately lessen the effect of the obligation alleviation for the HIPCs and cause discriminatory weight dividing between loan bosses. The IMF predicts a danger of citizen reaction in the influenced loan boss nations when citizens understand the measure of their assessments being utilized to pay claims from vulture reserves. The vulture store issue is empowering dark monetary administration, as HIPCs devise approaches to protect or conceal resources from forceful leasers.
The focal analysis of the vulture reserves is that, by buying upset obligation at limited rates, declining to partake in intentional restructurings, and trying to recuperate the full worth of the obligation through suit, vulture reserves are going after both different lenders and on the obliged nations themselves. Nations whose obligation is exchanging at profound limits are nearly by definition in profound monetary difficulty and large numbers of them are poor. Holdout conduct by vulture supports makes rebuilding more slow, more troublesome, and unsure. Borrowers are hurt by the significant vulnerability confronted and furthermore by being compelled to reimburse individual banks undeniably more than the arrangements haggled with different lenders.
No less than twenty intensely obligated helpless nations have been undermined with or have been exposed to lawful activities by business loan bosses and vulture assets since 1999 including Sierra Leone by Greganti Secondo and ARCADE, and by Industrie Biscoti against Cote d'Ivoire and Burkina Faso. Other RMCs that have been designated incorporate Angola, Cameroon, Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Liberia, Madagascar, Mozambique, Niger, Sao Tome and Principe, Tanzania, and Uganda.
A joint IMF and World Bank study has seen that albeit as a rule borrowers have not made installments on court decisions acquired by leasers, sometimes indebted individuals have made installments in overabundance of HIPC boundaries. The concentrate additionally saw that forthcoming prosecution and exceptional court decisions may likewise restrain HIPCs from regularizing monetary associations with the worldwide financial local area. The World Bank gauges that more than 33% of the nations which have equipped for its obligation help have been focused on with claims by something like 38 disputing leasers with decisions totalling $1 billion out of 26 of these cases.
The Paris Club has communicated worry with vulture store prosecution. Assessing the destructive outcomes of suit for HIPC nations and steady with the Paris Club standard of similarity of treatment, in May 2007 the Paris Club set out to keep away from the offer of their cases on HIPCs to different leasers who don't expect to give obligation help under the HIPC drive. The Paris Club desires different lenders to take action accordingly. In collaboration with applicable worldwide organizations, the Paris Club loan bosses consented to increase their work on this issue with the end goal of recognizing substantial measures to handle this issue. In a Pre-highest point articulation gave in Essen, Germany on 19 May, 2007, the G-8 Finance Ministers communicated worry about activities of some prosecuting lenders against HIPCs and consented to cooperate to recognize measures to handle this issue dependent on crafted by the Paris Club. On 12 December 2007, the G-7 Debt Experts welcomed the IMF, the World Bank and the Bank to a gathering in Paris led by the Secretary General of the Paris Club to talk about the effect of vulture assets on obligation help and measures that could be utilized to limit the unfavorable effect on monetary improvement of HIPCs.
